PERFORMANCE
*Overview
Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2005 (the three months
period from October 1 to December 31, 2004) increased by 5.4% as compared to the
previous corresponding period, to Yen 443.7 billion. During this quarter, the
average yen exchange rates were at Yen 106.01 against the U.S. dollar (up Yen
2.91) and Yen 137.16 against the euro (down Yen 7.58). Net sales would rise 4.8%
excluding impacts of such foreign currency exchange fluctuations.
In Japan, Printing Systems such as MFPs (multifunctional printers) and laser
printers increased its sales, and also solution business such as support and
service continued its sales raised. Moreover, Ricoh Printing Systems, Ltd. which
is a newly acquired printing company contributed substantially to our sales. In
the result of taking effective countermeasures against the changes in terms of
multifunction, networking and colorizing, net sales was 8.6% up from the
previous corresponding period.
As for overseas, product categories such as color PPCs (plain paper copiers),
MFPs and laser printers, especially color models, increased its sales in each
region. Although sales in the Americas increased by 3.0% (5.9% increase
excluding currency exchange impact) and in Europe also increased by 8.2% as
compared to the previous corresponding period, sales in other region such as
China, Asian and Oceania countries decreased by 18.4% due primarily to sales
decline of optical disc business and the sale of certain consolidated
subsidiaries in optical related business. As a result, net sales was 2.2% up
from the previous corresponding period. Excluding the impact of the currency
exchange fluctuations, it figures net sales would be increased by 0.9%.
Operating income increased by 6.9% as compared to the previous corresponding
period, to Yen 38.7 billion. It was provided positive effect by increasing of
sales on high value-added products such as color PPCs, MFPs and printers that
yield a high profit, launching new products and ongoing cost-cutting activities,
in spite of expansion of strategic costs such as research and development and
establishment of core operating system.
As a result, income before income taxes increased by 4.2% as compared to the
previous corresponding period, to Yen 34.6 billion, although foreign exchange
losses incurred in other expense.
The effective tax rate consequently dropped down due to the amount of tax
exemption on research and development expenses which was expanded by the change
of the Corporate Tax Law in Japan, and overall profitability improvement has
been executed.
As a result, net income increased by 13.0% as compared to the previous
corresponding period, to Yen 22.2 billion.

*Conditions by Product Line
Office Equipment (Sales up 6.7% to Yen 393.1 billion)
-----------------------------------------------------
Customer demands have been shifting more to digital, networked and color models
from standalone analog products both in Japan and overseas market place. Ricoh
enforced a solution proposal to customers for the optimization of their total
printing costs in order to assist their efficient management of TDV (Total
Document Volume). As a result, sales of color PPCs and Printing Systems such as
MFPs and laser printers continued to grow and sales of Network System Solutions
such as support and service increased while sales of Imaging Solutions
decreased. Sales of optical disc business decreased as per continuous reduction
in key module business such as independent developed disc drive and its related
component, except media.
Imaging Solutions (Sales down 5.7% to Yen 178.3 billion)
--------------------------------------------------------
Digital Imaging Systems
- Sales of color PPCs increased by new product in response to growth in
customer demand.
- Shift from standalone products to MFPs all over the world
- As a result, sales in this category decreased by 2.1%.
Other Imaging Systems
---------------------
- Sales were down by 17.1% due to the shift from analog products to MFPs and
color products.
Network Input/Output Systems (Sales up 24.2% to Yen 171.3 billion)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Printing Systems
- Continuous sales growth by introducing new offering products to cope with
the shift to networked and color models both in Japan and overseas.
MFPs: Imagio Neo 352 and Imagio Neo 602 in Japan
Aficio 2035/2045 series and Aficio 2105/2090 series overseas
Color MFPs: Imagio Neo C245 and Imagio Neo C385 in Japan
Aficio 2232C/2238C series overseas
- Sales volume of printers increased especially color laser printer and color
printers for office use utilizing Ricoh's original 'GELJET' technology
with strategic low price.
- Ricoh Printing Systems, Ltd. became a subsidiary and contributed to our
performances.
- As a result, sales in this category increased by 35.9%.
Other Input/Output Systems
- Optical disc business that advanced to focus on media decreased its sales.
Network System Solutions (Sales up 4.6% to Yen 43.5 billion)
------------------------------------------------------------
- Solution business such as support and service continued to increase due
primarily to customer acceptance of our solution proposal to optimize their
total printing cost.
Consequently, net sales of Office Equipment segment increased by 6.7% as
compared to the previous corresponding period, to Yen 393.1 billion. Operating
income increased by 9.1% to Yen 54.5 billion. It was particularly resulted from
sales increase and new products of Printing Systems and continuous cost
reduction.
Other Businesses (Sales down 3.2% to Yen 50.6 billion)
------------------------------------------------------
Net sales of Other Business segment decreased by 3.2% as compared to the
previous corresponding period, to Yen 50.6 billion, due primarily to the sales
of certain consolidated subsidiaries in optical related business and sluggish
demand cycle of semiconductor business.
As a result, operating income in this segment decreased to Yen 0.1 billion.
*Cash Flows (Nine months from April 1, 2004 to December 31, 2004)
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased Yen 7.3 billion as compared
to the previous corresponding period, to Yen 74.3 billion. Although the
collection of trade receivables progressed, inventories increased in response
to sales expansion in overseas markets. Income tax and bonus were paid, and
retirement benefit obligation decreased due to the maintenance of the pension
plan last fiscal year.
Net cash used in investing activities was Yen 90.5 billion due to capital
investment in new product lines, product development and the acquisition of new
printer company, Ricoh Printing Systems, Ltd.
As a result, free cash flow generated by operating and investing activities,
which provided Yen 41.2 billion in the previous corresponding period, used
Yen 16.2 billion. Net cash used in financing activities amounted to Yen 22.9
billion due primarily to cutback interest-bearing debt by means of
reinforcement of cash management in each region and payment of dividends.
As a result, cash and cash equivalents at the end of the third quarter
decreased Yen 34.8 billion as compared to the end of the preceding year, to
Yen 168.1 billion.

*Forecast for the entire fiscal year
As for the forecast of business results for the fiscal year ending March 31,
2005, we have revised our sales forecast as announced in October 2004, up to Yen
1,815.0 billion with 2.0% growth as compared to the previous fiscal year. We
forecast the sales volume of Office Equipment will increase both in Japan and
overseas in consideration of positive effect showed up in regard to the
promotion for color models and the reform of non-core businesses, which were
conducted during this first half of fiscal year. For the fourth quarter, we
predict an exchange rate of Yen 105.00 against the US dollar, and of Yen 130.00
against the euro, without change.
As for income, we revised downward our forecast to operating income of Yen 147.0
billion and income before income taxes of Yen 141.0 billion, from Yen 151.0
billion and Yen 145.5 billion of which we announced in October 2004,
respectively. It is due primarily to strategic investment for 15th medium-term
plan that will start from next fiscal year.
Forecast net income of Yen 85.0 billion has not been revised and same as
announced in October 2004.
Our performance forecasts for fiscal 2005 are as follows:
Exchange Rate Assumptions for the full year ending March 31, 2005
US$ 1 = Yen 107.67 (Yen 113.09 in previous fiscal year)
EURO 1 = Yen 133.45 (Yen 132.65 in previous fiscal year)

6. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONSOLIDATED)
1. CHANGE RELATING TO THE SCALE OF CONSOLIDATION AND THE APPLICATION OF THE
EQUITY METHOD FROM OCTOBER 1, 2004 TO DECEMBER 31, 2004.
Consolidated subsidiaries:
12 additions including Ricoh Printing Systems, Ltd. and Shanghai Ricoh Digital
Equipment Co., Ltd.
No removal
Companies accounted for by the equity method:
2 additions including Santama Sougou Jimukiki Co., Ltd.
Removal: Shanghai Ricoh Digital Equipment Co., Ltd.
2. CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTING POLICIES (SUMMARY)
(1) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ricoh and its
consolidated subsidiaries. Investments in 20% to 50% owned companies when the
company has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for on
the equity basis. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.
Certain overseas subsidiaries of the company changed their fiscal year end from
December 31 to March 31, at the beginning of fiscal 2005. As a result, retained
earnings increased by Yen 777 million and other comprehensive income (loss)
decreased by Yen 1,665 million.
(2) Securities
In conformity with SFAS No.115, securities are mainly classified as
available-for-sale securities. 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).
The cost of the securities sold is computed based on the average cost of each
security held at the time of sale.
(3) Inventories
Inventories are mainly stated at the lower of average cost or market. Inventory
costs include raw materials, labor and manufacturing overheads.
(4) Plant and Equipment
Depreciation of 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.
Certain leased buildings, machinery and equipment are accounted for as capital
leases in conformity with SFAS No. 13, "Accounting for Leases."
(5) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
In conformity with SFAS No.142, Goodwill and intangible asset determined to have
an indefinite useful life are not amortized. SFAS No. 142 requires annual
impairment testing thereof.
(6) 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.
