Ricoh Company, Ltd. and Consolidated Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES
According to the article 81 of the "Regulations Regarding Terms, Forms and
Preparation of Interim Consolidated Financial Statements"(Ministry of Finance
Ordinance No.24, 1999), the accompanying consolidated financial statements of
Ricoh (Ricoh Company, Ltd. and its consolidated subsidiaries) have been prepared
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. Significant accounting and reporting policies are summarized below:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the half years ended
September 30, 2002, 2003 and year ended March 31, 2003 are presented in Japanese
yen, the functional currency of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.
The books of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries are maintained in
conformity with Japanese accounting principles and practices, while foreign
subsidiaries maintain their books in conformity with the standards of their
country of domicile.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect necessary
adjustments, not recorded in the books, to present them in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
(A) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Ricoh. Investments in entities in which Ricoh has the ability to exercise
significant influence over the entities' operating and financial policies
(generally 20 to 50 percent ownership) are accounted for on an equity basis. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
The accounts of certain consolidated subsidiaries have been included on the
basis of fiscal periods ended within three months prior to September 30 or March
31.
(B) REVENUE RECOGNITION
Ricoh generates revenue principally through the sale of equipment, supplies and
related services under separate contractual arrangements for each. Generally,
Ricoh recognizes revenue when (1) it has a firm contract, (2) the product has
been shipped to and accepted by the customer or the service has been provided,
(3) the sales price is fixed or determinable and (4) amounts are reasonably
assured of collection.
Most equipment sales require that Ricoh install the product. As such, revenue is
recognized at the time of delivery and installation at the customer location.
Equipment revenues are based on established prices by product type and model and
are net of discounts and trade-in allowances. A sales return is accepted only
when the equipment is defective and does not meet Ricoh's product performance
specifications. Other than installation, there are no customer acceptance
clauses in the sales contract.
Service revenues result primarily from maintenance contracts that are normally
entered into at the time the equipment is sold. Standard service fee prices are
established depending on equipment classification and include a cost value for
the estimated services to be performed based on historical experience plus a
profit margin thereon. As a matter of policy, Ricoh does not discount such
prices. On a monthly basis, maintenance service revenues are earned and
recognized by Ricoh and billed to the customer in accordance with the contract
and include a fixed monthly fee plus a variable amount based on usage. The
length of the contract ranges up to five-years, however, most contracts are
cancelable at any time by the customer upon a short notice period.
F-6
(C) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
For foreign operations with functional currencies other than the Japanese yen,
assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates in effect at each
end of the period, and income and expenses are translated at the average rates
of exchange prevailing during each period. The resulting translation adjustments
are included as a part of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in
shareholders' investment.
All foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in other income
and expense in the period incurred.
(D) CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with maturities of
three months or less at the date of purchase.
(E) DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As discussed further in Note 4, Ricoh manages its exposure to certain market
risks, primarily foreign currency and interest rate risks, through the use of
derivative instruments. As a matter of policy, Ricoh does not enter into
derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. Ricoh adopted SFAS
No.133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", and SFAS
No.138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
Activities" which require that all derivative instruments be recorded on the
balance sheet at their respective fair values.
In accordance with SFAS 133, Ricoh, when it enters into a derivative contract,
makes a determination as to whether or not for accounting purposes the
derivative is part of a hedging relationship. In general, a derivative may be
designated as either (1) a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or
liability or an unrecognized firm commitment ("fair value hedge"), (2) a hedge
of the variability of the expected cash flows associated with an existing asset
or liability or a forecasted transaction ("cash flow hedge"), or (3) a foreign
currency fair value or cash flow hedge ("foreign currency hedge"). Ricoh
formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged
items, as well as its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking
various hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives that
are designated as fair values, cash flow, or foreign currency hedges to specific
assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet or to specific firm
commitments or forecasted transactions.
For derivative contracts that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges
including foreign currency fair value hedges, the derivative instrument is
marked-to-market with gains and losses recognized in current period earnings to
offset the respective losses and gains recognized on the underlying exposure.
For derivative contracts that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges
including foreign currency cash flow hedges, the effective portion of gains and
losses on these contracts is reported as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same period
the hedged item or transaction affects earnings. Any hedge ineffectiveness on
cash flow hedges is immediately recognized in earnings. For all derivative
instruments that are not designated as part of a hedging relationship and for
designated derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting, the
contracts are recorded at fair value with the gain or loss recognized in current
period earnings.
F-7
(F) ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL TRADE RECEIVABLES AND FINANCE RECEIVABLES
Ricoh records allowances for doubtful receivables that are based upon historical
experience and specific customer collection issues. The estimated amount of
probable credit losses in its existing receivables is determined from write-off
history adjusted to reflect current economic conditions and specific allowances
for receivables including nonperforming leases, impaired loans or other accounts
of which Ricoh has concluded it will be unable to collect all amounts due
according to original terms of the lease or loan agreement. Account balances are
charged-off against the allowances when collection is considered remote.
(G) SECURITIES
Ricoh conforms with SFAS No.115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities" which requires all investments in debt and marketable equity
securities to be classified as either held-to-maturity, trading, or
available-for-sale securities. As of September 30, 2002, March 31, 2003 and
September 30, 2003, all of Ricoh's investments in debt and marketable equity
securities are classified as available-for-sale securities. Those
available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value with unrealized gains
and losses, net of related taxes, excluded from earnings and reported in
accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Available-for-sale securities,
which mature or are expected to be sold in one year, are classified as current
assets.
Individual securities classified as available-for-sale securities are reduced to
their then fair value for any declines in market value determined to be other
than temporary. These impairment losses are charged against earnings at the time
that a decline has been determined to be other than temporary based primarily on
the financial condition of the issuer and the extent and length of time of the
decline. Investments whose market values have declined below cost that extends
for nine months are automatically written-down to their then fair value in all
cases.
The cost of the securities sold is computed based on the average cost of each
security held at the time of sale.
Non-marketable equity securities owned by Ricoh primarily relate to less than
20% owned companies and are stated at cost.
(H) INVENTORIES
Inventories are mainly stated at the lower of average cost or net realizable
values. Inventory costs include raw materials, labor and manufacturing
overheads.
(I) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
For the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, depreciation of property, plant
and equipment is computed principally by using the declining-balance method over
the estimated useful lives. Most of the foreign subsidiaries have adopted the
straight-line method for computing depreciation, which currently accounts for
approximately 42% of the consolidated depreciation expense. The depreciation
period generally ranges from 5 years to 50 years for buildings and 2 years to 12
years for machinery and equipment.
Effective rates of depreciation for the half years ended September 30, 2002,
2003 and year ended March 31, 2003 are summarized below:
F-8
Half year ended Half year ended Year ended
September 30, 2002 September 30, 2003 March 31, 2003
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Buildings 4.0% 4.0% 8.1%
Machinery and equipment 22.1 23.4 41.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major
replacements and improvements are capitalized. When properties are retired or
otherwise disposed of, the property and related accumulated depreciation
accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts, and any differences are
included in earnings.
(J) GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Ricoh fully adopted the provision of SFAS No.141, "Business Combinations", and
SFAS No.142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS 141 requires the use
of only the purchase method of accounting for business combinations and refines
the definition of intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination.
SFAS 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill and instead requires annual
impairment testing thereof. SFAS 142 also requires acquired intangible assets
with a definite useful life to be amortized over their respective estimated
useful lives and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS 144. Any
acquired intangible asset determined to have an indefinite useful life is not
amortized, but instead is tested for impairment based on its fair value until
its life would be determined to no longer be indefinite.
Goodwill acquired in business combinations completed before July 1, 2001, was
amortized until March 31, 2002. In connection with the transitional impairment
evaluation, SFAS 142 required Ricoh to perform an assessment of whether there
was an indication that goodwill was impaired as of April 1, 2002. To accomplish
this, Ricoh (1) identified its reporting units, (2) determined the carrying
value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including
the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units, and (3)
determined the fair value of each reporting unit. As the result of the
transitional assessment, Ricoh determined there was no indication that goodwill
had been impaired as of April 1, 2002.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS 142, Ricoh classified the cost in excess of fair
value of the net assets of companies acquired in purchase transactions as
goodwill, and the goodwill was being amortized on a straight-line method over
the estimated periods benefited, not to exceed 20 years.
(K) PENSION AND RETIREMENT ALLOWANCES PLANS
The measurement of pension costs and liabilities is determined in accordance
with SFAS No.87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions." Under SFAS 87, changes in
the amount of either the projected benefit obligation or plan assets resulting
from actual results different from that assumed and from changes in assumptions
can result in gains and losses not yet recognized in the consolidated financial
statements. Amortization of an unrecognized net gain or loss is included as a
component of the net periodic benefit plan cost for a year if, as of the
beginning of the year, that unrecognized net gain or loss exceeds 10 percent of
the greater of (1) the projected benefit obligation or (2) the fair value of
that plan's assets. In such case, the amount of amortization recognized is the
resulting excess divided by the average remaining service period of active
employees expected to receive benefits under the plan. The expected long-term
rate of return on plan assets used for pension accounting is determined based on
the historical long-term rate of return on plan assets. The discount rate is
determined based on the rates of return of high-quality fixed-income investments
currently available and expected to be available during the period to maturity
of the pension benefits.
F-9
In June 2001, the Japanese pension law was amended to permit an employer to
elect to transfer the entire substitutional portion benefit obligation from the
domestic employer pension fund (EPF) plan to the government together with a
specified amount of plan assets pursuant to a government formula. After such
transfer, the employer would be required to make periodic contributions to
Japanese Pension Insurance (JPI) program, and the Japanese government would be
responsible for all benefit payments. The corporate portion of the EPF would
continue to exist exclusively as a corporate defined benefit pension plan. In
this regard, Ricoh has elected to transfer the substitutional portion of its EPF
to the government. The process of separating the substitutional portion from the
corporate portion includes several phases. In January 2003, Ricoh received
government approval of exemption from the obligation for benefits related to
future employee service with respect to the substitutional portion of its EPF
and is proceeding with the remaining steps to effectuate the transfer. Ricoh
will account for the transfer in accordance with EITF 03-2 "Accounting for the
Transfer to the Japanese Government of the Substitutional Portion of Employee
Pension Fund Liabilities". As specified in EITF 03-2, the entire separation
process is to be accounted for at the time of completion of the transfer to the
government of the benefit obligation and related plan assets as a settlement in
accordance with SFAS No. 88 "Employers' Accounting for Settlements and
Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits".
Accordingly, there has been no effect on Ricoh's consolidated financial
statements for the half year ended September 30, 2003. The aggregate effect of
this separation will be determined based on the Company's total pension benefits
obligation as of the date the transfer is completed and the amount of plan
assets required to be transferred. Based on the Company's current estimates as
to the total amount of such pension benefits obligation and the amount of plan
assets required to be transferred, Ricoh's management does not presently expect
that this separation will have a significant effect on Ricoh's financial
condition or results of operation. However, the final amount of the impact could
be significantly different depending on any change in the amounts of the pension
benefit obligation or plan assets to be transferred.
(L) INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating
loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be
realized or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date.
(M) RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES AND ADVERTISING COSTS
Research and development expenses and advertising costs are expensed as
incurred.
(N) SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS
Shipping and handling costs, which mainly include transportation to customers,
are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated
statements of income.
(O) IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Ricoh adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets". SFAS 144 develops a single accounting model, based on the
framework established in SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" for long-lived
assets to be disposed of by sale, and broadens the scope of what constitutes a
business to be disposed of that should be reported as a discontinued operation.
The new standard was adopted on April 1, 2002, and did not have a material
effect on Ricoh's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
F-10
SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets and acquired intangible assets with a
definite life are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets
may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is assessed
by comparing the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to the expected
future undiscounted net cash flows of the asset or group of assets. If an asset
or group of assets is considered to be impaired, the impairment charge to be
recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset
or group of assets exceeds fair value. Long-lived assets meeting the criteria to
be considered as held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying
amount or fair value less costs to sell.
(P) EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the
weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. The calculation
of diluted net income per common share is similar to the calculation of basic
net income per share, except that the weighted-average number of shares
outstanding includes the additional dilution from potential common stock
equivalents such as convertible bonds.
(Q) NON-CASH TRANSACTIONS
The following non-cash transactions have been excluded from the consolidated
statements of cash flows for the half years ended September 30, 2002, 2003 and
year ended March 31, 2003:
Millions of Yen

Retirement of treasury stock - - 13,328
Acquisition of minority interests of a
consolidated subsidiary through
stock for stock exchanges - 5,579 -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(R) USE OF ESTIMATES
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses,
including impairment losses of long-lived assets and the disclosures of fair
value of financial instruments and contingent assets and liabilities, to prepare
these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Company has identified five areas where it believes assumptions and
estimates are particularly critical to the consolidated financial statements.
These are revenue recognition, determination of the allowance for doubtful
receivables, impairment on long-lived assets and goodwill, realizability of
deferred tax assets and pension accounting.

Proceeds from the sales of available-for-sale securities were (Yen) 22,133
million, (Yen) 33,514 million and (Yen) 24,513 million for the half years ended
September 30, 2002, 2003 and year ended March 31 2003, respectively.
There were no significant realized gains on sales of available-for-sale
securities for the half years ended September 30, 2002, 2003 and year ended
March 31, 2003. There were no significant realized losses on sales of
available-for-sale securities for the half years ended September 30, 2002, 2003
and year ended March 31, 2003. There were no significant losses on securities
for the half years ended September 30, 2002 and 2003 charged to other expense
for declines in market value of available-for-sale securities where the decline
was determined to be other than temporary. The loss on securities of (Yen) 2,260
million for the year ended March 31, 2003 was charged to other expense for
declines in market value of available-for-sale securities where the decline was
determined to be other than temporary.
In March 2000, the Company contributed certain marketable equity securities, not
including those of its subsidiaries and affiliated companies, to an employee
retirement benefit trust fully administered and controlled by an independent
bank trustee, with no cash proceeds thereon. The transfer of the
available-for-sale securities was accounted for as a sale in accordance with
SFAS No.125, "Accounting for Transfer and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities" and accordingly the recorded pension liability
was reduced by the fair market value amount of the transferred securities. The
fair value of these securities at the time of contribution was (Yen) 20,760
million. The net unrealized gains on these available-for-sale securities
amounting to (Yen) 13,095 million continues to be included in "Accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss)" on the consolidated balance sheets and will only be
reflected in realized gains in the statements of income upon the future sale of
the transferred securities by the trustee.
3. PER SHARE DATA
Shareholders' equity per share were (Yen) 912.98, (Yen) 885.41 and (Yen) 946.38

4. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Risk Management Policy
Ricoh enters into various derivative financial instrument contracts in the
normal course of business in connection with the management of its assets and
liabilities.
Ricoh uses derivative instruments to reduce risk and protect market value of
assets and liabilities in conformity with the Ricoh's policy. Ricoh does not use
derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes, nor is it
a party to leveraged derivatives.
All derivative instruments are exposed to credit risk arising from the inability
of counterparties to meet the terms of the derivative contracts. However, Ricoh
does not expect any counterparties to fail to meet their obligations because
these counterparties are financial institutions with satisfactory credit
ratings. Ricoh utilizes a number of counterparties to minimize the concentration
of credit risk.
Foreign Exchange Risk Management
Ricoh conducts business on a global basis and holds assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies. Ricoh enters into foreign exchange contracts
and foreign currency options to hedge against the potentially adverse impacts of
foreign currency fluctuations on these assets and liabilities denominated in
foreign currencies.
Interest Rate Risk Management
Ricoh enters into interest rate swap agreements to hedge against the potential
adverse impacts of changes in fair value or cash flow fluctuations on interest
of its outstanding debt.
Fair Value Hedges
Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and the related hedged items
designated and qualifying as fair value hedges are included in other (income)
expenses on the consolidated statements of income. There is no hedging
ineffectiveness nor are net gains or losses excluded from the assessment of
hedge effectiveness for the half years ended September 30, 2002, 2003 and year
ended March 31 2003 as the critical terms of the interest rate swap match the
terms of the hedged debt obligations.
F-14
Cash Flow Hedges
Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments designated and qualifying as
cash flow hedges are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)
on the consolidated balance sheets. These amounts are reclassified into earnings
as interest on the hedged loans is paid. There is no hedging ineffectiveness nor
are net gains or losses excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness for
the half years ended September 30, 2002, 2003 and year ended March 31 2003 as
the critical terms of the interest rate swap match the terms of the hedged debt
obligations. Ricoh expects that it will reclassify into earnings through other
(income) expenses during the next 12 months approximately (Yen) 54 million of
the balance of accumulated other comprehensive loss as of September 30, 2003.
Undesignated Derivative Instruments
Derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments are held to reduce
the risk relating to the variability in exchange rates on assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies. Changes in the fair value of these
instruments are included in other (income) expenses on the consolidated
statement of income.
5. CREDIT LINES
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries enter into the contracts with
financial institutions regarding lines of credit and overdrawing, and hold the
issuing programs of commercial paper and medium-term notes. The unused lines of
credit amounted to (Yen) 618,613 million, (Yen) 613,884 million and (Yen)
590,271 million as of September 30, 2002, March 31, 2003 and September 30, 2003,
respectively, of which (Yen) 358,356 million, (Yen) 378,984 million and (Yen)
329,013 million related to commercial paper and medium-term notes programs at
prevailing interest rates.
6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Ricoh was also contingently liable as guarantor for employees' housing loans
amounted to (Yen) 347 million as of September 30, 2003.
As of September 30, 2003, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries were
parties to litigation involving routine matters, such as patent rights. In the
opinion of management, the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from such
litigation will not materially affect the consolidated financial position or the
results of operations of Ricoh.
7. SECURED LOAN AND COLLATERAL
Certain subsidiaries of the company provide their land, buildings and lease
receivables to banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions as
collateral. Secured loan are amounted to (Yen) 3,269 million, (Yen) 2,553
million and (Yen) 1,483 million as of September 30, 2002, March 31, 2003 and
September 30, 2003, respectively, which are collateralized by land, buildings
and lease receivables with a book value of (Yen) 8,557 million, (Yen) 8,432
million and (Yen) 3,633 million as of September 30, 2002, March 31, 2003 and
September 30, 2003, respectively.

8. DISCLOSURES ABOUT THE FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(A) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS, TIME DEPOSITS, TRADE RECEIVABLES, SHORT-TERM
BORROWINGS, CURRENT MATURITIES OF LONG-TERM INDEBTEDNESS, TRADE PAYABLES
AND ACCRUED EXPENSES
The carrying amounts approximate fair values because of the short maturities of
these instruments.
(B) MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The fair value of the marketable securities and investment securities is
principally based on quoted market price.
(C) INSTALLMENT LOANS
The fair value of installment loans is based on the present value of future cash
flows using the current rate for similar instruments of comparable maturity.
(D) LONG-TERM INDEBTEDNESS
The fair value of each of the long-term indebtedness instruments is based on the
quoted price in the most active market or the present value of future cash flows
associated with each instrument discounted using the current borrowing rate for
similar instruments of comparable maturity.
(E) INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS
The fair value of interest rate swap agreements is estimated by obtaining quotes
from brokers.
(F) FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS AND FOREIGN CURRENCY OPTIONS
The fair value of foreign currency contracts and foreign currency options is
estimated by obtaining quotes from brokers.
The estimated fair value of the financial instruments as of September 30, 2002,
2003 and March 31, 2003 is summarized as follows:

Limitations
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant
market information and information about the financial instrument. These
estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of
significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes
in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
