Terumo Medical Pranex, an exhibition hall 14 IA History Starts with Glass Mercury Thermometer the 1950s and started local production in the United States Terumo was established in 1921 as a manufacturer of glass mercury thermometers. The Company remained the top domestic maker of mercury thermometers until 1984, when production ceased and a full switchover was made to digital thermometers, which had debuted the previous year. in 1972. Overseas business grew steadily from there, and now comprises about 40% of all net sales. At the same stage in its history, Terumo debuted a number of revolutionary medical products, including Japan’s first disposable plastic syringe in 1963. The disposable Although Terumo no longer relies on glass thermometer production technology, we have accumulated a wealth of technology related to body temperature measurement, including equilibrium body temperature prediction technology found in digital thermometers. This technology syringe was a significant invention in the formation of our intellectual asset portfolio in that it signified the potential of disposable technology. Currently, nearly all of our products are disposable. The nurturing of Japan’s disposable product market will serve as the basis of various new inventions to measure the body’s vital signs, having already found its way into such mainstay products as blood pressure and blood glucose monitors. helped the Company establish close business relationships with almost all major medical institutions in Japan. These close business relationships have formed the basis of the Company’s consistently high market share and are a source Terumo began exporting glass mercury thermometers in of our competitiveness.

In 1973, Terumo applied the polymer technology developed originally for medical equipment to the invention of Japan’s first soft infusion bag. Until then, glass infusion other materials with high biocompatibility (2) Technology for selecting, processing and forming these materials (3) Technology for conducting biological evaluations (4) Technology for conducting physical evaluations (5) Sterilization technology These are among the core technologies on which Terumo relies to develop new products in all its main business areas. The successful application of these technologies has delivery systems had required the injection of air pressure to drip-feed infusion liquid to the patient. Soft plastic bags rely instead on air pressure to drip the liquid. The introduction of a soft, flexible and easy-to-use infusion delivery system has reduced the risk of contamination at hospitals. Unlike many other pharmaceutical companies, Terumo does not start with the development of synthesized made Terumo a market leader in a number of key product areas. In 1985, for example, the Company developed a drugs, but instead applies its core medical equipment technology to new guide wire that has maintained a large global market share since its debut. A guide wire is a thin metal device used to guide drug development. The approach has given Terumo a distinct advantage in the pharmaceutical market. catheters and other treatment devices to a specific area within the body. Terumo’s guide wire product is made of a Consider the product FULCALIQ®, which has the top share of the high-calorie transfusion agent market in Japan. super elastic metal alloy, which provides both body stiffness and flexibility. A hydrophilic polymer coating with lubricant Terumo designed a three-chambered bag that contains a high-calorie transfusion liquid with all the nutrients a patient needs. Terumo has also become the domestic leader in the prefilled syringe market and attracted the attention of Guide Wire Patent Application Map Number in ( ) is number of applications in Japan Angiographic structure (5) Core structure (15) Coating (15) Visual mark (3) Tip structure (11) FULCALIQ, total parenteral nutrition containing multivitamins, glucose, amino acids and electrolytes Joining technology (17) pharmaceutical makers around the world. In this market as well, the Company replaced the traditional glass syringe with an innovative and safe plastic syringe. Drug delivery systems (DDS) using nanotechnology represent an exciting new field of health care development MRI applicability (3), Extension system (4), Other (9) fusing pharmaceuticals with medical equipment. One method of treatment involves injecting drugs into a liposome, using polyethylene glycols to coat the surface of the liposome properties enables easier guiding to the treatment area. During x-ray angiography, for example, the catheter can be and then targeting the drug on a specific area of infection or cancerous tissue. Key benefits of DDS are the improved smoothly guided through the body, reducing the diagnosis and treatment time and the physical burden on the patient. In addition, since the guide wire can navigate through response and the mitigation of side effects. The fusion between pharmaceuticals and medical equipment will be critical to successful development of treatment systems in the future. In the past few years, narrow vessels, in addition to angiography, the device is being utilized for cardiac infarction and various other cardiac procedures. A number of key technologies are concentrated in a diameter of 0.014 mm to 1 mm. Patent applications associated with the guide wire are shown above. Fusing Medical Equipment with Pharmaceuticals Terumo leads the world in the development of core technologies in its main business areas. In addition, the Company is taking a leading role in combining these core 16 drug-eluting stents (DES) have grown to become a major treatment for cardiac infarction. With DES, a reticulated stainless steel stent is coated with immune-suppressing drugs and other agents. Terumo has also married transfusion agents with the transfusion pumps and sets required to deliver the agents. No other health care company in Japan can provide both the agents and the delivery systems, with the result that no company can offer the same level of safety and efficiency in the transfusion field. This has become a key competitive advantage for us. New Ideas from the Source Company begins quality control at the design stage, and this approach has won it a long-standing reputation For development of new products, Terumo relies heavily on its close bonds to the medical industry. The Company has close relations with doctors, nurses, pharmacologists, clinical engineers and other professionals supporting the industry, garnering information on their needs and for the development of its business. In the home care and other health care areas, Terumo often contacts patients directly. This type of business model enables the Company to monitor the true needs of treatment facilities and patients and to develop among medical professional and patients for easy-to-use and high-quality equipment. Quality is a core component of the Terumo brand. medical equipment that addresses these needs. Merging this information into new product development is keeping Terumo development, an intellectual property team draws up a patent portfolio needed to fully protect the new product. The a step ahead of the field. One example is the need of treatment facilities to prevent accidents. Over the past several years, Terumo approach is critical to the creations of our R&D teams. During the fiscal year under review, Terumo filed 471 patent applications worldwide: 397 applications in Japan has developed new medical equipment based on an exact understanding of the needs of medical institutions and and 74 overseas. A high percentage of the Company’s filings continued to be made in the United States and Europe, patients. Net sales and net income in the general hospital division have improved markedly as a result. but in line with the globalization of business, an increasing number of applications were filed in Asia, particularly China and South Korea. Uniting Technologies to Create New Products Medical equipment represents the union of a number of In 2003, Terumo introduced a new patent evaluation system in which all patent applications undergo a 16-item different sciences, including physiology, biochemistry, pharmacology, cell technology, polymer technology, metal processing, electronics and sensor technology, to name assessment to determine their inventive value. This system helps to determine whether a foreign patent application will be filed after the filing of the Japanese application. The results only a few. One of Terumo’s major strengths, however, is the capability to add to the development process a number of the evaluation are also used to assess the performance of our researchers. The patent evaluation results are combined of related processes that are critical to the success of new products. These include technology to evaluate the physical, chemical and biological properties of new products, the with our incentive system, so that researchers who produce a steady stream of good inventions benefit from positive personnel evaluations, which supports a high level of work implementation of clinical testing, the ability to receive approval for products in various countries with different and leads to increased salaries. Terumo is leveraging its wealth of development regulations, and the ability to conduct post-launch surveys to ensure the safety and effectiveness of products. In addition, Terumo provides unique sales know-how, including unique training mechanisms to ensure that the technology in the areas of disposable medical products, medical equipment and pharmaceuticals and its reputation for quality. The Company has formed strong bonds with medical institutions and trading partners in Japan and built doctors, nurses and other medical professionals who use our products employ them correctly. Quality control is the basis for the successful implementation of our technology and know-how. Medical equipment poses a number of risks because of the direct a high market share in key product areas. Terumo’s 13 plants and 33 sales offices overseas form the backbone of a global sales and production network. This network keeps employees close to medical professionals and patients, and enables us to build an intellectual asset portfolio that reflects influence it has on human life. Advanced quality control technology is critical to reducing the number of defective products. Terumo has been able to keep the level of defective products to about one out of 10 million. The their needs.

Demand for diabetes treatment products, digital thermometers, and digital blood pressure monitors rose, lifting net sales by 54.7%, to ¥1.0 billion. Highlights •Europe Business Strategy Europe is a market where the newest products reach patients quickly. In recent years, Terumo has been investing more resources into cutting-edge equipment, and the importance of clinical trials in Europe has risen. Europe will continue to play an important role in marketing products worldwide after clinical trials and government approval, in the end contributing to the Company’s rising sales and profits. •Net sales jumped 7.9%, to ¥38.6 billion* •Operating loss was ¥1.2 billion, compared with operating income of ¥2.7 billion a year earlier Performance The operating loss can be attributed to expenses incurred from the change to a direct sales structure for catheter systems, along with one-time expenses linked to corporate acquisitions. Highlights •Net sales surged 13.9%, to ¥39.6 billion* •Operating income grew 41.1%, to ¥3.8 billion •Asia & Others Performance Sales of catheter systems and vascular grafts were robust. ANACONDA, a stent graft used for treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms, has been well received since its launch in April 2005, and we are targeting sales of ¥600 million for the current year ending March 2007. •North & South America Business Strategy The United States is the largest medical market in the world. Medical equipment companies are acquiring and developing new treatment technologies there, as the United States has traditionally been rich in information and infrastructure. Terumo intends to reap the benefits of this environment and thereby develop and market innovative products. As we expect large growth in this market, we are investing aggressively. Two major investments are the switchover in sales of catheter systems from indirect sales to a direct sales structure, and the acquisition in March 2006 of MicroVention Inc. Business Strategy In Asia, we are expanding our manufacturing plants. Terumo already has manufacturing plants in China and the Philippines, and we are now planning for a Vietnam plant to start operations in March 2008. With its growing demand for medical equipment, Asia also offers lowcost procurement of high-quality materials. The cost efficiency of both materials and labor will contribute to raising operating margins. The Company plans to focus on expanding sales of high-value-added products, such as medical equipment with safety features, catheter systems and blood sucrose monitors, while keeping tabs on the changing circumstances of each individual market in the region.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 44 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Terumo Corporation and subsidiaries 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Basis of Presenting Consolidated Financial Statements Terumo Corporation (the “Company”) and its consolidated domestic subsidiaries maintain their official accounting records in Japanese yen and in accordance with the provisions set forth in the Japanese Securities and Exchange Law and its related accounting regulations, and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan (“Japanese GAAP”), which are different in certain respects as to application and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards. The accounts of overseas subsidiaries are based on their accounting records maintained in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and practices prevailing in the respective countries of domicile. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reformatted and translated into English (with some expanded descriptions and the inclusion of consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity) from the consolidated financial statements of the Company prepared in accordance with Japanese GAAP and filed with the appropriate Local Finance Bureau of the Ministry of Finance as required by the Securities and Exchange Law. Some supplementary information included in the statutory Japanese language consolidated financial statements, but not required for fair presentation, is not presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. (b) Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, except for an immaterial subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in 20% to 50% affiliates and the immaterial subsidiary not consolidated are stated at their underlying net equity value. (c) Foreign Currency Translation All short-term and long-term receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Japanese yen at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The foreign exchange gains and losses from transactions are recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of income to the extent that they are not hedged by foreign exchange derivatives. The balance sheet accounts of the consolidated foreign subsidiaries are translated into Japanese yen at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date except for stockholders’ equity, which is translated at historical rates. Differences arising from such transactions are shown as “Translation adjustments” in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Revenue and expense accounts of the consolidated foreign subsidiaries are translated into Japanese yen at an annual average exchange rate. (e) Investments The accounting standard for financial instruments requires the Company to classify its securities into one of the following three categories: trading, held-to-maturity or other securities. Based on the classification, all securities are classified as other securities and included in investment securities. To comply with the accounting standard for financial instruments, other securities with a market value are principally carried at market value. The difference, net of tax, between the acquisition cost and the carrying value of other securities, including unrealized gains and losses, is recognized in “Other securities valuation difference” in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Other securities without a market value are principally carried at cost. The cost of other securities sold is principally computed based on the moving average method. (f) Inventories Inventories are stated at cost, determined principally by the average method, and stated at lower of cost or market value for overseas subsidiaries. (g) Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Routine maintenance and repairs and minor replacement costs are charged to expenses as incurred. Depreciation is computed principally by the declining-balance method based on the following estimated useful lives. Buildings .................................. 5-50 years Machinery and equipment ........ 3-20 years However, buildings acquired by the Company on or after April 1, 1998 are depreciated by the straight-line method. (h) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets On August 9, 2002, the Business Council of Japan issued new accounting standard entitled “Statement of Opinion on the Establishment of Accounting Standards for Impairment of Fixed Assets”. Further, on October 31, 2003, the Accounting Standards Board of Japan issued Financial Accounting Standards Implementation Guidance No. 6 - “Application Guidance on Accounting Standards for Impairment of Fixed Assets”. Effective April 1, 2004, the Company and consolidated domestic subsidiaries have elected to early adopt these new accounting standards for impairment of fixed assets. As a result of adopting the new accounting standards, property, plant and equipment at March 31, 2005 decreased by ¥1,435 million and income before income taxes and minority interests for the year ended March 31, 2005 decreased by the same amount, as compared with the amount which would have been reported if the previous standards had been applied consistently. (d) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers cash and time deposits, which may be withdrawn on demand without diminution of principal and with original maturities of three months or less, to be cash and cash equivalents. 45 (i) Goodwill and Intangibles Recognized in Acquisitions Goodwill, which represents the excess cost over the book value of the net assets acquired at acquisition dates of investments in subsidiaries, is principally amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 or 20 years which is the expected period to be benefited. All amount of goodwill recognized at acquisition of Mission Medical INC. on February 25, 2005, which was allocable to a research and development project of high-technology medical devices, was charged to income for the year ended March 31, 2005, since realizabilitity of its benefits is not certain. (See Note 3.) A portion of assets relating to in-process research and development expense, which was recognized at acquisition of Micro Vention INC. on March 28, 2006, was charged into selling, general and administrative expense. (j) 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 are expected to be recovered 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. (See Note 8.) In accordance with Practical Guidance Report No.12, “Treatment of the Pro Forma Standard Tax Portion of Corporate Tax in the Statements of Income”, announced by the Accounting Standards Board of Japan on February 13, 2004, the amount of ¥64 million and ¥405 million levied in proportion to added value and capital as enterprise taxes were treated as a part of selling, general and administrative expenses and as a part of cost of sales, respectively, for the year ended March 31, 2005. (k) Retirement and Severance Benefits The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have contributory and noncontributory defined benefit plans that provide for pension or lump-sum benefit payments, based on length of service and certain other factors, to employees who retire or terminate their employment for reasons other than dismissal for cause. The allowance for retirement benefits for employees is provided based on the estimated retirement benefit obligation and the fair value of the plan assets. The contributory plan included a portion of the governmental welfare pension benefits which would otherwise be provided by the Japanese government in accordance with the Welfare Pension Insurance Law in Japan. Management considered that a portion of the contributory plan, which was administered by the board of trustees composed of management and labor representatives, represented a welfare pension plan carried on behalf of the Japanese government. These contributory and noncontributory plans were funded in conformity with the funding requirements of applicable Japanese governmental regulations. The Company transferred certain marketable securities worth ¥7,110 million ($60,769 thousand) to an employee retirement benefit trust during the year ended March 31, 2006. Gain on the contribution of securities to retirement benefit trust was ¥4,967 million ($42,453 thousand). Directors and certain employees are not covered by the plans described above. Benefits paid to such persons and meritorious service awards paid to certain other employees in excess of the prescribed formula are charged to income as paid, since amounts vary with circumstances, and it is not practicable to compute the liability for future payments. (l) Leases Financial leases of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, except for those where the legal title of the underlying property is transferred from the lessor to the lessee at the end of the lease term, are accounted for as operating leases. (m) Derivatives The Company and its subsidiaries do not hold derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Derivative financial instruments held by the Company and its subsidiaries are foreign exchange contracts to manage currency risk. Derivatives are, in principle, stated at market value. The Company has developed a hedging policy to control various aspects of derivative transactions, including authorization levels and transaction volumes. Based on this policy, the Company hedges, within certain scopes, risks arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company reviews, every six months, the effectiveness of all hedging policies to take account of the cumulative cash flows and any changes in the market. (n) Appropriation of Retained Earnings Under the Commercial Code of Japan, the appropriation of retained earnings with respect to a given financial period is made by resolution of the stockholders at a general meeting held subsequent to the close of such financial period. The accounts for that period do not, therefore, reflect such appropriation. (See Note 13.) (o) Net Income and Cash Dividends per Common Share Net income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. (See Note 13.) Diluted net income per share for the years ended March 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 is not presented since the Company had no securities with dilutive effect to net income per share. Cash dividends per share are computed based on dividends declared with respect to income for the year. (p) Research and Development Costs Research and development costs are charged to income when incurred. 2. Financial Statement Translation The translations of the Japanese yen amounts into U.S. dollars are included solely for the convenience of readers outside Japan, using the prevailing exchange rate at March 31, 2006, which was ¥117 to 46 U.S. $1. Such translations should not be construed as representations that the Japanese yen amounts have been, could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at this or any other rate of exchange. 3. Acquisition On March 28, 2006, the Company acquired 100% of outstanding shares of MicroVention INC. and its subsidiaries. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction, a portion of assets relating to in-process research and development expense was charged into selling, general and administrative expense for the year ended March 31, 2006. On February 25, 2005, the Company acquired additional shares of Mission Medical INC., and, as a result, Mission Medical INC. has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. The excess of the purchase price over the book value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. All amount of goodwill, which was allocable to a research and development project of high-technology medical devices, was charged to income for the year ended March 31, 2005. In the year ended March 31, 2004, the Company acquired 53% of the interest of Changchun Terumo Medical Products Co., Ltd., which has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The excess of the purchase price over the book value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill and is principally being amortized over 20 years.

Impairment Loss on Property and Equipment In the years ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company and its subsidiaries recognized ¥593 million ($5,069 thousand) and ¥1,435 million, respectively, of impairment loss on the following group of assets.

Land (Idle asset) $ 5,069 $ 5,069 The company and its subsidiaries group their fixed assets by business groups continuously managing its income and expenditures, such as General hospital products segment, Cardiac and vascular products segment, and Home health care products segment. Idle assets are each grouped into an asset group. In addition, assets belonging to Headquarters and R&D center, company housing and dormitories are included in common assets due to the fact that they do not generate identifiable cash flows. For idle assets not in the ordinary course of business and the asset values significantly depreciated, the book value were reduced to recoverable amounts, and such reduced amounts were recorded as impairment loss. The Company and its subsidiaries mainly use net selling values for calculating recoverable amounts, which are mainly based on tax basis for property taxes. 12. Common Stock On March 31, 2006, the Company holds 7,848,741 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate cost of ¥13,450 million ($114,958 thousand). The repurchase cost of the holding shares is deducted from stockholders’ equity as treasury stock at March 31, 2006. The Ordinary General Meeting of Stockholders held on June 29, 2004 approved that, in accordance with Japanese Commercial Code Article 211-3, the Company changed the Article of corporation so that the Company may acquire its common stock to be held in treasury based on decision on directors’ meeting. The Ordinary General Meeting of Stockholders held on June 29, 2005 approved that the Company changed the Articles of corporation so that the Company may publish up to 840 million shares of common stock. 13. Retained Earnings and Dividends Effective from October 1, 2001, the revised Japanese Commercial Code was adopted. The previous Japanese Commercial Code provided that an amount equal to at least 10% of appropriations paid in cash be appropriated as a legal reserve until such reserve equals 25% of common stock. This reserve is not available for payment of dividends but may be used to reduce a deficit or may be transferred to capital. The revised Japanese Commercial Code provides that an amount equal to at least 10% of appropriations paid in cash be appropriated as a legal reserve until such reserve plus capital surplus equals 25% of stated capital. If the total of legal reserves and capital surplus exceeds 25% of stated capital, such excess amount can be reversed without limit of utilization. Legal reserves, which are included in retained earnings, amount to ¥3,946 million ($33,726 thousand) and ¥3,783 million at March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. 52 In accordance with the Commercial Code, proposed appropriations of retained earnings have not been reflected in the financial statements at the end of each fiscal year. The proposed appropriations of retained earnings at March 31, 2006 are cash dividends of ¥2,842 million ($24,291 thousand) and officers’ bonuses of ¥132 million ($1,128 thousand). The proposal was approved by the Ordinary General Meeting of Stockholders held on June 29, 2006. The maximum amount that the Company can distribute as dividends is calculated based on the non-consolidated financial statements of the Company in accordance with the Commercial Code. 14. Leases The Company and its subsidiaries lease certain machinery and equipment under various lease arrangements. Finance leases, except for those where the legal title of the underlying property is transferred from the lessor to the lessee at the end of the lease term, are accounted for as operating leases. Leased machinery and equipment under such finance leases at March 31, 2006 and 2005 are as follows: Thousands of U.S. dollars (Note 2) Millions of yen Market value at inception of leases . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Foreign Exchange Risk Management The Company and its subsidiaries operate internationally which expose them to the risk of a change in foreign exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments are comprised of foreign exchange contracts utilized by the Company to reduce such risks. The Company and its subsidiaries do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. The contract amounts of derivative financial instruments are not a measure of the exposure of the Company through its use of derivative financial instruments. The Company is exposed to the risk of creditrelated or debit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to the foreign exchange contracts, but does not expect any counterparties to fail given their high credit ratings. The Company enters into foreign exchange contracts to hedge against the risk of fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates associated with certain trade receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies. At March 31, 2006 and 2005, outstanding foreign exchange currency contracts are used for the translation of hedged trade receivables and payables. The Company is required to disclose certain information with respect to derivatives. Contract amounts and fair value of foreign exchange contracts at March 31, 2006 and 2005 are set forth below.
