We Are Advancing Our Strategies to the Next Stage. Combining our traditional shipping business with value-added strategies under Stage 2 The NYK Group has prepared a new five-year medium- term management plan, ‘More Than Shipping 2018’, covering the period from April 2014 through March 2019. While building on the key strategies of the previ- ous medium-term management plan, ‘More Than Shipping 2013’, we will redouble efforts to achieve differentiation through the technological capabilities and professional skills we have honed.

We Are Leveraging Our Technologies. Achieving differentiation by honing technological capabilities and professional skills Japan’s first car carrier with capacity for 7,000 vehicles, Aries Leader was completed in May 2014. Car carriers incorporate a variety of energy-saving technology. Given recent bunker oil price hikes, im- proved fuel efficiency not only reduces CO2 emissions but also contributes to earnings by enabling significant cost reductions. Accordingly, our new medium-term management plan calls for a 15% improvement in fuel efficiency versus the fiscal 2010 level. 02 Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha NYK Report 2014 How Are We Stepping Up?

We Are Pursuing Innovation. Mobilising all divisions’ technological capabilities and professional skills, seeking differentiation tirelessly Underpinned by an innovative corporate culture that has been evolving and strengthening since our founda- tion, we have accumulated and honed a broad array of technological capabilities and professional skills. These capabilities and skills enable us to reduce costs by almost ¥20 billion a year. Although the offshore and LNG transport businesses are challenging to enter, we have established a presence in both businesses thanks to our reliable ship-handling technologies and skills. Going forward, we will mobilise the technological capabilities and professional skills of all divisions to differentiate ourselves even further. 04 Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha NYK Report 2014 MTI Technology JMS Division Creative Solutions for Clients PROJECT and Business Partners Marine OWNER* Division Commercial / 3M’s Elimination Corporate Divisions Discover opportunities for commercialisation and practical use of innovative ideas Environment NBS * A commercial or corporate division that leads a project MTI: Monohakobi Technology Institute An NYK Group company that conducts technological R&D and surveys Intellectual in relation to shipping and logistics Property NBS: NYK Business Systems Co., Ltd.
