  • JT Business Report Vol.33
    [This is an English translation prepared for the convenience of non-resident shareholders. Should there be any inconsistency between the translation and the official Japanese text, the latter shall prevail.] Business Report To Our Shareholders Volume 33 ■ Report on the Consolidated Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2011 ■ Introducing an International Tobacco Market “France” ■ A lesson from the past at the end of a journey ■ Product supply situation in the Japanese Domestic Tobacco Business ■ JT Group’s support activities for regions stricken by the Great East Japan Earthquake ■ JT Volleyball Teams ■ Bulletin Board ■ Easy Recipe with TableMark <Photos> <JT logo> - 1 - A Message from Management I would like to express our sincere sympathy for the people affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, and we pray for an early recovery from the disaster. For the full year of the fiscal year ended March 2011, net sales excluding tobacco excise taxes increased slightly due to profit growth as the effect from strategic pricing offset the sharp sales volume declines that followed tax hike and price increase in the Japanese Domestic Tobacco Business and favorable pricing and foreign exchange movements. In the Japanese Domestic Tobacco Business, sales volume decreased drastically due to the effect from the tax hike and price increase. As the Great East Japan Earthquake affected JT factories and suppliers, JT took temporary measures in order to ensure stable product supply – these measures included temporary suspension of shipments, limiting the number of products supplied and focusing on supply of key products. The number of products supplied will be gradually expanded, with 73 products in early August.

  • Protecting Pennsylvania's Investments
    Annual Report of Activities Pursuant to Act 44 of 2010 September 30, 2013 September 30, 2013 The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has enacted legislation (Act 44 of 2010) requiring public funds to divest from companies doing business in Iran and/or Sudan that meet certain thresholds of activity. Additionally, Act 44 prohibits Pennsylvania’s public funds from purchasing securities of a company once it appears on scrutinized business activities lists, regardless of whether the funds already have direct holdings in such company. Act 44 requires that the public funds each year assemble and provide a report to the Governor, the President Pro Tempore of the Senate, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and each member of the boards of the Pennsylvania Municipal Retirement System, the State Employees’ Retirement System, and the Public School Employees’ Retirement System. Accordingly, we have prepared this report on the activities our funds have undertaken to comply with the requirements of Act 44 during the period July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013. This report includes: The most recent scrutinized companies lists (Sudan and Iran). A summary of correspondence with scrutinized companies. All investments sold, redeemed, divested or withdrawn in compliance with Act 44, the costs and expenses of such transfers, and a determination of net gain or loss on account of such transactions incurred in compliance with the Act. A list of publicly traded securities held by the public funds.
