Internet Initiative Japan Inc. Date: August 10, 2006 By: /s/ Koichi Suzuki --------------------------------------------- Koichi Suzuki President, Chief Executive Officer and Representative Director EXHIBIT 1 --------- IIJ Announces First Quarter Results for the Year Ending March 31, 2007; Year-over-Year Increase in Revenues and Profits, Affected by Favorable Trends TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 9, 2006--Internet Initiative Japan Inc. (NASDAQ: IIJI, Tokyo Stock Exchange Mothers: 3774) ("IIJ"), one of Japan's leading Internet-access and comprehensive network solutions providers, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2007 ("FY2006").(1) Highlights of First Quarter FY2006 Results -- Revenue totaled JPY 12,437 million ($108.6 million), an increase of 25.9% from 1Q05. -- Operating income was JPY 559 million ($4.9 million), an increase of 126.6% from 1Q05. -- Net income was JPY 734 million ($6.4 million), an increase of 17.8% from 1Q05. Target for FY2006(2) -- We maintain our initial target for full FY2006 that we announced on May 10, 2006. Overview of 1st Quarter of FY2006 Financial Results and Business Outlook(2) "FY2006 started strongly as revenues from both outsourcing services and systems integration grew substantially," said Koichi Suzuki, President and CEO of IIJ. "Overall revenues increased 25.9% and operating income jumped 126.6% in 1Q06 compared to 1Q05, although our first quarter is historically weakest due to seasonal fluctuations in Japanese corporate spending. The Japanese economy continues to recover and, as a result, we see a greater willingness for Japanese companies to invest in information systems. At the same time, our corporate customers are increasingly recognizing the importance of Internet technology in helping them increase business efficiency and competitiveness. Internet technology became one of the key components of their business operations and consequently they need and demand highly reliable and safe Internet-related services. IIJ has accumulated extensive Internet technological expertise more than a decade, and it is now being validated that IIJ is correctly positioned to meet the growing demand from corporate customers. We are working hard to continue our expansion by developing additional services, particularly in the fields of outsourcing, Internet VPN and Internet security along with favorable business environment." "In 1Q06, we had an improvement in our financial results", said Akihisa Watai, CFO of IIJ. "At the Ordinary General Shareholders' Meeting held on June 28, 2006, the reductions of the Company's additional paid-in capital and common stock in the non-consolidated financial statements under generally accepted accounting principles in Japan were resolved and became effective on August 4, 2006. The reductions did not result in any changes to the number of shares of common stock outstanding, total shareholders' equity or our earning per share targets for FY2006. The reductions have not affected our consolidated financial statements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") due to the difference in accounting principles between Japan and the United States." 1st Quarter FY2006 Financial Results ------------------------------------ Operating Result Summary (JPY in millions) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1Q06 1Q05 YoY % change ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Revenues 12,437 9,880 25.9% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Costs 10,134 8,118 24.8% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SG&A Expenses and R&D 1,744 1,516 15.1% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating Income 559 247 126.6% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Income before Income Tax Expense 999 682 46.5% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income 734 623 17.8% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Revenues Revenues in 1Q06 totaled JPY 12,437 million, an increase of 25.9% from JPY 9,880 million in 1Q05.

SI revenues increased 57.1% to JPY 6,032 million in 1Q06 compared to 1Q05. The increase was mainly due to an increase in one-time revenues from the design, construction and consultation of networks, as well as a continuous increase in monthly recurring revenues from network operation and maintenance.

Cost of SI revenues was JPY 4,581 million in 1Q06, an increase of 57.4% compared to 1Q05. The increase was mainly due to an increase in systems integration projects. Cost of Equipment Sales revenues was JPY 483 million in 1Q06, an increase of 98.2% compared to 1Q05. The increase was mainly due to an increase in equipment sales. Sales and marketing expenses were JPY 790 million in 1Q06, an increase of 2.9% compared to 1Q05. The increase was mainly due to an increase in expenses along with the business expansion. General and administrative expenses were JPY 915 million in 1Q06, an increase of 28.1% compared to 1Q05. The increase was mainly due to an increase in personnel expenses principally related to recruitment of new graduates, an increase of recruiting expenses and expenses related to changes in office layouts. Operating income Operating income was JPY 559 million in 1Q06, an increase of 126.6% compared to 1Q05. The increase was mainly due to the increase of revenues from higher-margin value-added services and systems integration. Other income and others Other income in 1Q06 was JPY 440 million, an increase of 1.1% from JPY 435 million in 1Q05. The increase included a gain from sale of available-for-sale securities of JPY 478 million. Net income was JPY 734 million in 1Q06, an increase of 17.8% compared to 1Q05. The increase was mainly due to an increase in operating income. The income tax expense in 1Q06 increased to JPY 149 million compared to 1Q05, mainly due to income tax payable related to taxable income of our consolidated subsidiaries. The equity in net loss of equity method investees increased compared to 1Q05 mainly due to an increase of equity method loss from the newly established equity method investee. 1st Quarter FY2006 Business Review Analysis by Service Connectivity and Value-added Services For dedicated access services, customers continued to shift to higher speed and the number of contracts for broadband services increased as customers connected their branch offices and shops over Internet VPN. The number of contracts for dedicated access services increased by 3,080 to 15,354 compared to 1Q05. The contracted bandwidth increased by 84.5Gbps to 225.4Gbps compared to 1Q05. Dedicated access service revenues were JPY 2,616 million, a decrease of 4.8% compared to 1Q05. The decrease is mainly related to a decrease by JPY 234 million in interconnection revenues between IIJ's network and Asia Internet Holding Co., Ltd. ("AIH"), our former equity method investee, because AIH was merged into IIJ in October 2005. Dial-up access service revenues were JPY 607 million in 1Q06, a decrease of 13.1% compared to 1Q05, mainly due to the decrease in revenues from services for individual customers, such as IIJ4U, as well as the discontinuance of services of certain large customer to which we provided our services as OEM. VAS revenues were JPY 1,741 million in 1Q06, an increase of 25.5% compared to 1Q05. The increase was due to an increase in revenues from various types of services. We recorded an increase in revenues from network-related outsourcing services such as the rental service of SEIL, our in-house developed routers and SEIL Management Framework ("SMF"), the central management system of SEIL, server-related outsourcing services such as outsourcing of e-mail systems and data center related services. The increase in revenues from SEIL rental service and SMF reflects an increase of multi-site connection projects with Internet-VPN. Other revenues were JPY 900 million in 1Q06, a decrease of 3.6% compared to 1Q05. As a result, revenues from Internet connectivity and value-added services in 1Q06 were JPY 5,864 million, an increase of 1.7% compared to 1Q05. The gross margin for Internet connectivity and value-added services in 1Q06 was JPY 794 million, a decrease of 1.1% compared to 1Q05. The gross margin ratio of Internet connectivity and value-added services was 13.5% in 1Q06.

IIJ conducted a 1 for 5 stock split effective on October 11, 2005. The numbers are calculated with the assumption that the stock spilt was made at the beginning of the year ended March 31, 2006. The numbers are calculated with the number of IIJ shares of common stock outstanding deducted by the number of IIJ's shares owned by IIJ's equity method investee multiplied by IIJ's ownership in the equity method investee. 3) The percentage figures for the total revenues, operating income and others for the three months ended June 30, 2006 show an increase or decrease compared to the same quarter in the last fiscal year. As IIJ began to prepare the financial statements for three months ended June 30 as required by TSE for the three months ended June 30, 2005, IIJ does not show the percentage figures for the total revenues, operating income and others for the three months ended June 30, 2005. 4) The potential shares did not have a dilutive effect for the three months ended June 30, 2006. 5) In this document, income before income tax expense represents income from operations before income tax expense, minority interests and equity in net income (loss) of equity method investees in IIJ's consolidated financial statements. (Consolidated Results of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006 (from April 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006)) a. Overview of Financial Results IIJ had a favorable start to the year ending March 31, 2007. Despite the fact that our first quarter is historically weakest due to seasonal fluctuations in Japanese corporate spending, both revenues and profits increased significantly for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005 due to the significant increase in systems integration and outsourcing services. In general, with the recovering trend of the Japanese economy, corporate investments on network have continued to rise. Under this business environment, revenues from systems integration, such as network design, construction, operation and maintenance, and value-added services ("VAS") such as security-related services, and outsourcing of email-related system and data center services, are steadily increasing. As a result, for the IIJ Group's consolidated results of operation for the three months ended June 30, 2006, total revenues amounted to JPY 12,437 million, an increase of 25.9% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. Operating income amounted to JPY 559 million, an increase of 126.6% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. Income before income tax expense amounted to JPY 999 million, an increase of 46.5% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005 and net income amounted to JPY 734 million, an increase of 17.8% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. b. Analysis of the Results of Operations 1) Revenues Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2006 totaled JPY 12,437 million, an increase of 25.9% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three Months ended June 30, Three Months ended June YoY % 2006 30, 2005 Change ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Millions of Yen Millions of Yen % Connectivity and VAS 5,864 5,767 1.7 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Systems Integration 6,032 3,840 57.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equipment Sales 541 273 98.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Revenues 12,437 9,880 25.9 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connectivity and VAS revenues were JPY 5,864 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 1.7% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. Although revenues from Internet connectivity services decreased, revenues from various types of VAS increased due to an increase in demand for outsourcing services. SI revenues increased by 57.1% from the three months ended June 30, 2005 to JPY 6,032 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The increase was mainly due to an increase in revenues from network system outsourcing and maintenance which generated recurring revenues and increase in one-time revenues from network design, construction and consultation. Equipment sales revenues were JPY 541 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 98.1% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. 2) Cost of Revenues The cost of revenues was JPY 10,134 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 24.8% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three Months ended June 30, Three Months ended June YoY % 2006 30, 2005 Change ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Millions of Yen Millions of Yen % Connectivity and VAS 5,070 4,964 2.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Systems Integration 4,581 2,910 57.4 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equipment Sales 483 244 98.2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Cost of Revenues 10,134 8,118 24.8 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The cost of connectivity and VAS revenues was JPY 5,070 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 2.1% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. The cost of SI revenues increased by 57.4% to JPY 4,581 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from the three months ended June 30, 2005, mainly due to an increase in revenues from systems integration. The cost of equipment sales revenues was JPY 483 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 98.2% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. 3) Sales and Marketing Expenses Sales and marketing expenses were JPY 790 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 2.9% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. The increase was mainly due to an increase in expenses from the business expansion. 4) General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses were JPY 915 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 28.1% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. The increase was mainly due to an increase in personnel expenses principally related to the recruitment of new graduates, an increase of recruiting expenses and expenses related to changes in office layouts. 5) Operating Income Operating income was JPY 559 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 126.6% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. The increase was mainly due to the increase in gross margin, which was caused by the increase in revenues from value-added services and systems integration. 6) Other Income and Others Other income for three months ended June 30, 2006 was JPY 440 million, an increase of 1.1% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. The increase included a gain from sale of available-for-sale securities of JPY 478 million. 7) Net Income Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was JPY 734 million, an increase of 17.8% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. The income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased to JPY 149 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005, mainly due to an increase of income tax payable related to taxable income of our consolidated subsidiaries. The equity in net loss of equity method investees totaled JPY 73 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 due to an increase of equity method loss from the newly established equity method investee. c. Analysis by Service 1) Internet Connectivity and Value-added Services ("VAS") For dedicated access services, a number of corporate customers have increased their bandwidth and the number of contracts of broadband services increased with an increase of multi-site connection projects. However, the revenue from dedicated access services decreased by 4.8% to JPY 2,616 million mainly related to a decrease by JPY 234 million in interconnection revenues between IIJ's network and Asia Internet Holding Co., Ltd. ("AIH"), our former equity method investee, because AIH merged into IIJ. Dial-up access service revenues were JPY 607 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, a decrease of 13.1% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in revenues from services for individual customers, such as IIJ4U, as well as the discontinuance of services of a large customer to which we provided our services as OEM. VAS revenues were JPY 1,741 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, an increase of 25.5% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005 due to an increase in revenues from various types of services. We recorded an increase in revenues from network-related outsourcing services such as the rental service of SEIL, our in-house developed routers and SEIL Management Framework ("SMF"), the central management system of SEIL, server-related outsourcing services such as outsourcing of e-mail systems and data center related services. The increase in revenues from the SEIL rental service and SMF reflects an increase of multi-site connection projects. Other revenues were JPY 900 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, a decrease of 3.6% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. As a result, revenues from Internet connectivity and VAS for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were JPY 5,864 million, an increase of 1.7% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005. The gross margin of Internet connectivity and VAS was JPY 794 million, a decrease of 1.1% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005 and the gross margin ratio was 13.5%.

The increase was mainly due to an increase of 22.9% in revenues from network system outsourcing and maintenance, which will generate recurring revenues, and a significant increase of 132.9% in revenues from one-time systems integration projects, partly due to projects carrying over from the previous quarter. The gross margin ratio for SI was 24.0%.

IIJ conducted a 1 for 5 stock split effective on October 11, 2005. The numbers are calculated with the assumption that the stock spilt had been made at the beginning of the year ended March 31, 2006. The numbers are calculated with the number of IIJ shares of common stock outstanding reduced by the number of IIJ's shares owned by IIJ's equity method investee multiplied by IIJ's percentage ownership in the equity method investee.

(Qualitative Information Regarding Changes in Consolidated Financial Position) The balance of cash as of June 30, 2006 was JPY 13,091 million (the balance of cash as of June 30, 2005 was JPY 5,106 million). (Net cash used in operating activities) Net cash provided by operating activities was JPY 905 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 (the net cash provided by operating activities was JPY 1,027 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005). An increase or decrease of accounts receivable and accounts payable offset an increase in operating income due to an increase in revenues from value-added services and systems integration. (Net cash used in investing activities) Net cash used in investing activities was JPY 267 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 (the net cash used in financing activities was JPY 43 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005). Purchases of short-term and other investments of JPY 279 million and property and equipment of JPY 436 million offset proceeds of JPY 482 million from sales and redemption of short-term and other investments. (Net cash used in financing activities) Net cash used in financing activities was JPY 1,268 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 (the net cash used in financing activities was JPY 1,176 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005). Repayments of securities loan agreement of JPY 1,000 million, principal payments under capital leases of JPY 900 million, and repayments of long-term borrowings of JPY 660 million offset proceeds of JPY 795 million from issuance of short-term borrowings and proceeds of JPY 496 million from securities loan agreement. 3.

These forward-looking statements, such as statements regarding revenues and operating and net profitability of the year ending March 31, 2007, are subject to various risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause IIJ's actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include: IIJ's ability to maintain and increase revenues from higher-margin services such as systems integration and value-added services; the possibility that revenues from connectivity services may decline substantially as a result of competition and other factors; the ability to compete in a rapidly evolving and competitive marketplace; the impact on IIJ's profits of fluctuations in costs such as backbone costs and subcontractor costs; the impact on IIJ's profits of fluctuations in the price of available-for-sale securities; the impact of technological changes in its industry; IIJ's ability to raise additional capital to cover its indebtedness; the possibility that NTT, IIJ's largest shareholder, may decide to exercise substantial influence over IIJ; and other risks referred to from time to time in IIJ's filings on Form 20-F of its annual report and other filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. (Qualitative Information regarding Targets for Consolidated Financial Results) IIJ maintains its target for consolidated and non-consolidated financial results for the year ending March 31, 2007 that we announced on May 10, 2006. 4. Reference Information At the Ordinary General Shareholders' Meeting held on June 28, 2006, the reductions of additional paid-in capital of JPY 21,980,395 thousand and common stock of JPY 2,539,222 thousand were resolved to eliminate the accumulated deficit in the non-consolidated financial statements under generally accepted accounting principles in Japan. The resolution became effective on August 4, 2006. As a result, the common stock was reduced to JPY 14,294,625,054, the additional paid-in capital was reduced to JPY 0 and the accumulated deficit was eliminated in the non-consolidated financial statements. However, due to the difference in accounting principles between Japan and the United States, the accumulated deficit has not been eliminated and the common stock and additional paid-in capital have not been reduced in our consolidated financial statements under U.S. GAAP. 5.

Bank of New York prevailing as of June 30, 2006. Standard for Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended June 30, 2006 1. The Terminology, Form, and Preparation Methods for the Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended June 30, 2006 The consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2006 have been prepared under the accounting principles, procedures and ways of presentations requested for the issuance of American Depository Receipts ("ADRs") and others (generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), including Accounting Research Bulletins ("ARB"), Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinions, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") and related interpretation guidelines) in accordance with the provisions of article 81 "provisions for the terminology, form, and preparation methods for interim consolidated financial statements" (Ministry of Finance, ordinance No. 24, 1999). IIJ registered issuance of ADRs under the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("the United States SEC") and list IIJ's ADRs on NASDAQ market in August 1999. Accordingly, IIJ regularly files its annual report on Form 20-F in English with the United States SEC, including consolidated financial statements in English prepared under U.S. GAAP, in accordance with Rule 13 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 2. Main Differences in Preparation of Financial Statements in Accordance with Japan's Provisions and Principles for Interim Consolidated Financial Statements The main differences between the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2006 prepared under U.S. GAAP and the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2006 prepared in accordance with the Japan's provisions and principles for interim consolidated financial statements and the impact of the financially material items on income from operations before income tax expense, minority interests and equity in net income (loss) of equity method investees ("income before income tax expense") (the impact by an amendment to the financial statements prepared under U.S. GAAP) are as follows: (1) Differences in the Composition of the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements The quarterly consolidated financial statements under U.S. GAAP are composed of quarterly consolidated balance sheets, quarterly consolidated statements of income, quarterly consolidated statements of shareholders' equity and quarterly consolidated statements of cash flows and notes to the financial statements. (2) Differences in the Presentation of the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements Equity in net income (loss) of equity method investees is shown as an independent item in the quarterly consolidated financial statements after income before income tax expense. (3) Differences in Accounting Standards a. Income tax expense Income tax expenses are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109. Changes in the deferred income tax asset valuation allowance that relate to the tax effect of unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities have been recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income. b. Lease transactions The Company accounts for significant lease transaction agreements that fulfill the requirements for capitalized leases as stipulated by SFAS No. 13, in accordance with SFAS. As a result, finance lease transactions, other than those that recognize transfer of ownership to the lessee, are treated as purchased. In the three months ended June 30, 2006, this accounting treatment of lease transactions resulted in a JPY 6,452 thousand reduction in income before income tax expense. c. Cost of issuance of common stock The cost of issuing of common stock is accounted for as an expense related to capital transactions and is deducted from additional paid-in capital. In the three months ended June 30, 2006, this accounting treatment resulted in a JPY 8,906 thousand increase in income before income tax expense. d. Retirement benefit accounting Unfunded retirement benefits and noncontributory defined benefit pension plans are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 87. In the three months ended June 30, 2006, this accounting treatment resulted in a JPY 130 thousand decrease in income before income tax expense. e. Comprehensive income Comprehensive income is accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 130, "reporting comprehensive income." SFAS requires additional disclosure of information in consolidated financial statements. In the three months ended June 30, 2006, this accounting treatment did not result in any change in income before income tax expense. (4) Difference in the Way Diluted Net Income per Common Share is accounted for in the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements Diluted net income per common share is accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 128. In accordance with SFAS, the test of potential common shares that have dilutive effects should be conducted over three months. In the accounting principles in Japan regarding calculation of net income, the test should consider the period from the beginning of a fiscal year to the end of the quarter as one period. As a result, there might be a difference in the result of the test depending on the average of the share price during the period. In the three months ended June 30, 2006, there was no difference mentioned above. Notes to Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Description of Business Internet Initiative Japan Inc. ("IIJ"), a Japanese corporation, was founded in December 1992 to develop and operate Internet access services and other Internet-related services in Japan and is 29.7 percent owned by Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation ("NTT") and its subsidiary, NTT Communications Corporation as of June 30, 2006. IIJ and consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") provide Internet access services throughout Japan and into the United States of America and into the rest of Asia. The Company provides Internet-related systems integration, such as systems consultation, design, development, construction and operations and maintenance. The Company also provides systems integrations or sell equipment to supply equipment to construct systems, and provide other miscellaneous Internet access-related services. The Company manages its business and measures results based on a single Internet-related services industry segment. Substantially all revenues are from customers operating in Japan. Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties The Company has available-for-sale securities of JPY 4,288,015 thousand at June 30, 2006, and believes that the fluctuations in stock price of available-for-sale securities could have a material adverse effect on the Company's future financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company relies on telecommunications carriers for significant portion of network backbone, and Nippon Telegraph and Telephone East Corporation ("NTT East"), Nippon Telegraph and Telephone West Corporation ("NTT West"), electric power companies and their affiliates for local connections to customers. The Company believes that its use of multiple carriers and suppliers significantly mitigates concentrations of credit risk. However, any disruption of telecommunication services could have an adverse effect on operating results. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash investments, accounts receivable and guarantee deposits. The Company believes that the risks associated with accounts receivable is mitigated by the large number of customers comprising its customer base. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation IIJ maintains its record in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Japan. Certain adjustment and reclassifications have been incorporated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to U.S. GAAP. These adjustments were not recorded in the statutory accounts. Consolidation The quarterly consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IIJ and all of its subsidiaries, Net Care, Inc. ("Net Care"), IIJ Technology Inc. ("IIJ Technology"), IIJ Financial Systems Inc. ("IIJ FS") and IIJ America, Inc. ("IIJ America"), which have first quarters ending June 30, except for IIJ America. IIJ America's first quarter end is March 31 and such date was used for purposes of preparing the quarterly consolidated financial statements as it is not practicable for the subsidiary to report its financial results as of June 30. There were no significant events that occurred during the intervening period that would require adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying quarterly consolidated financial statements. Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in companies over which IIJ has significant influence but not control are accounted for by the equity method. For other than a temporary decline in the value of investments in equity method investees below the carrying amount, the investment is reduced to fair value and an impairment loss is recognized. A subsidiary or equity method investee may issue its shares to third parties at amounts per share in excess of or less than the Company's average per share carrying value. With respect to such transactions, the resulting gains or losses arising from the change in ownership are recorded in income for the year in which such shares are issued. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions used are primarily in the areas of impairment loss on advances to equity method investees, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, and estimated lives of fixed assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Recognition Revenues from customer connectivity services consist principally of dedicated Internet access services and dial-up Internet access services. Dedicated Internet access services represent full-line IP services and standard-level IP services (T1 Standard and IIJ FiberAccess/F Service). Dial-up Internet access services are provided to both enterprises and individuals (IIJ4U). The term of these contracts is one year for dedicated Internet access services and generally one month for dial-up Internet access services. All these services are billed and recognized monthly on a straight-line basis. Value-added service revenues consist principally of sales of various Internet access-related services such as firewall services. Value-added services also include monthly fees from data center services such as housing, monitoring, and security services. Other revenues under connectivity and value-added services consist principally of call-center customer support and Wide-area Ethernet services to construct networks that connect multiple operational sites for customers. The terms of these services are generally for one year and revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis during the service period. Initial set up fees received in connection with connectivity services and value-added services are deferred and recognized over the contract period. Systems integration revenues consist principally of the consultation of Internet network systems, design, development or construction and related maintenance, monitoring and other operating services. The period for the development of the systems or designs is less than one year and revenues are recognized when network systems and equipment are delivered and accepted by the customer under the completed contract method. The development of the Internet network systems or design includes multiple element arrangements such as consultation, planning, systems design, and construction services, and equipment and software purchased from third parties. When the equipment or system is delivered prior to other elements of the arrangement, revenue is deferred until other service elements are completed and accepted by the customer. Maintenance, monitoring, and operating service revenues are recognized ratably over the separate contract period, which is generally for one year. Systems integration service is subject to the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Issue No. 00-21, "Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables" which was adopted as of April 1, 2004. Equipment sales are reported on a gross or net basis in accordance with EITF Issue No. 99-19 "Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent". Revenues are recognized when equipments are delivered and accepted by the customer. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include time deposits and readily marketable securities with original maturities of three months or less. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts An allowance for doubtful accounts is established in amounts considered to be appropriate based primarily upon the Company's past credit loss experience and an evaluation of potential losses in the receivables outstanding. Other Investments In accordance with SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," all marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale securities, which are accounted for at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The cost of securities sold is determined based on average cost. The Company reviews the fair value of available-for-sale investments on a regular basis to determine if the fair value of any individual investment has declined below its cost and if such decline is other than temporary. If the decline in value is judged to be other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment is written down to fair value. Other than temporary declines in value are determined taking into consideration the extent of decline in fair value, the length of time that the decline in fair value below cost has existed and events that might accelerate the recognition of impairment. The resulting realized loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the decline was deemed to be other than temporary. Non-marketable equity securities are carried at cost as fair value is not readily determinable. If the value of a security is estimated to have declined and such decline is judged to be other than temporary, the security is written down to the fair value. Determination of impairment is based on the consideration of such factors as operating results, business plans and change in the regulatory, economic or technological environment of the investees. Fair value is determined as the Company's interest in the net assets of investees. Inventories Inventories consist mainly of network equipment purchased for resale and work-in-process for development of Internet network systems. Network equipment purchased for resale is stated at the lower of cost, which is determined by the average-cost method, or market. Work-in-process for development of network systems is stated at the lower of actual production costs, including overhead cost, or market. Inventories are reviewed periodically and items considered to be slow-moving or obsolete are written down to their estimated net realizable value. Leases Capital leases, which meet specific criteria noted in SFAS No. 13, "Accounting for Leases", are capitalized at the inception of the lease at present value of the minimum lease payments. All other leases are accounted for as operating leases. Lease payments for capital leases are apportioned to interest expense and a reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, including purchased software and capitalized leases, are computed principally using the straight-line method based on either the estimated useful lives of assets or the lease period, whichever is shorter. The useful lives for depreciation and amortization by major asset classes are as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Range of useful lives ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Data communications, office and other equipment 2 to 15 years Leasehold improvements 3 to 15 years Purchased software 5 years Capitalized leases 4 to 7 years ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets consist principally of property and equipment, including those items leased under capital leases. The Company evaluates the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable in accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". There were no impairment loss for long-lived assets for the three months ended June 30, 2006, the three months ended June 30, 2005 and the year ended March 31, 2006. Goodwill and Intangible Assets In accordance with SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", goodwill (including equity-method goodwill) and intangible assets that are deemed to have indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but are subject to impairment testing. Impairment testing is performed annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company performs annual impairment tests on March 31. Pension and severance indemnities plans The Company has pension plans and /or severance indemnities plans. The cost of the pension plans and severance indemnities plans are accrued based on amounts determined using actuarial methods, in accordance with SFAS No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions". Income Taxes The provision for income taxes is based on earnings before income taxes and includes the effects of temporary differences between assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes and operating loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances are provided against assets that are not likely to be realized. Foreign Currency Transactions Foreign currency assets and liabilities, which consist substantially of cash and accounts payable for connectivity leases to international carriers denominated in U.S. dollars, are stated at the amount as computed by using quarter-end exchange rates and the resulting transaction gain or loss is recognized in earnings. Derivative Financial Instruments All derivatives are recorded at fair value as either asset or liabilities in the balance sheet in accordance with SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 138 and No. 149 (collectively, "SFAS No. 133"). In accordance with SFAS No. 133, the Company designated interest swap contracts as a hedge of the variability of cash flows to be paid related to interest on floating rate borrowings (cash flow hedge) and the effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the underlying transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in earnings immediately. The Company enters into contracts to hedge interest rate risks and does not enter into contracts or utilize derivatives for trading purposes. Stock Sprits On August 4, 2005, IIJ's board of directors approved a five-for-one split of IIJ's common stock. Shareholders of record on August 31, 2005 received an additional common share. The stock split was effective on October 11, 2005. In order to reflect this split, information pertaining to the number of shares of common stock and net income per share has been restated in the accompanying financial statements and related notes. Stock-based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" from this quarter. SFAS No. 123R requires compensation expense for stock options and other share-based payment to be measured and recorded based on the instruments' fair value. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R and the related FASB Staff Positions on April 1, 2006 by using modified prospective application, which requires recognizing expenses for options granted prior to the adoption date equal to the fair value of unvested amounts over the remaining vesting period. The portion of these options' fair value attributable to vested awards prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R is never recognized. As all existing granted stock-based awards of the Company have vested, the adoption of SFAS No. 123R did not have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. Research and Development and Advertising Research and development and advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the quarter. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilutive effect of stock options. (See note 8 - Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share) Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of translation adjustments resulting from the translation of financial statements of a foreign subsidiary, unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities and gains or losses on cash flow hedging derivative instruments. Segment Reporting SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expense and for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operation decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company provides a comprehensive range of network solutions to meet its customers' needs by cross-selling a variety of services, including Internet connectivity services, value-added services, systems integration and sales of network-related equipment. The Company's chief operating decision maker, who is IIJ's President and Representative Director, regularly reviews the revenue and cost of sales on a consolidated basis and makes decisions regarding how to allocate resources and assess performance based on a single operating unit. New Accounting Standards In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes," which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in quarterly financial statements, disclosure, and transition. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this interpretation. 2. OTHER INVESTMENTS Pursuant to SFAS No. 115, all of the Company's marketable equity securities, principally marketable shares of common stock of Japanese companies, were classified as available-for-sale securities.

In Japan, there is a market in which participants lend and borrow debt and equity securities without collateral from financial institutions under agreement known as lending and borrowing debt and equity securities contracts. Under the agreement, the Company loans equity securities without collateral. The Company has loaned JPY 216,000 thousand and JPY 324,000 thousand of available-for-sale securities to the financial institution as of June 30, 2006 and March 31, 2006, respectively. 3. INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO EQUITY METHOD INVESTEEES IIJ utilizes various companies in Japan and neighboring countries to form and operate its Internet business. Businesses operated by its equity method investees include connectivity services in Asian countries (Asia Internet Holding Co., Ltd.

On March 14, 2003, the Company entered into a long-term installment loan agreement with a leasing company to finance the payment for rental deposits given to other lessor for its new head office.

These transactions were accounted for as secured borrowings and the cash received was recorded as payable under the securities loan agreement and securities lent were recorded as other investments. The agreement requires the Company to provide certain marketable securities as collateral at the commencement of the transaction.

The Company paid the interest on the payables at a variable rate, which was 0.37 percent, 0.6349 percent and 0.37 percent as of June 30, 2006, June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2006, respectively. 6. COMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES In December 2001, a class action complaint alleging violations of the federal securities laws was filed against the Company, naming IIJ, certain of its officers and directors as defendants, and underwriters of IIJ's initial public offering. Similar complaints have been filed against over 300 other issuers that have had initial public offerings since 1998 and such actions have been included in a single coordinate proceeding in the Southern District of New York. An amended complaint was filed on April 24, 2002 alleging, among other things, that the underwriters of IIJ's initial public offering violated the securities laws (i) by failing to disclose in the offering's registration statement certain alleged compensation arrangements entered into with the underwriters' clients, such as undisclosed commissions or tie-in agreements to purchase stock in the after-market, and (ii) by engaging in manipulative practices to artificially inflate the price of IIJ's stock in the after-market subsequent to the initial public offering. On July 15, 2002, the Company joined in an 'omnibus' motion to dismiss the amended complaint filed by the issuers and individuals named in the various coordinated cases. In June 2003, the Company approved a settlement with the plaintiffs in this matter. IIJ, along with the settling issuer defendants, filed a motion seeking the court's preliminary approval of the settlement. The court granted preliminary approval of the settlement on February 15, 2005, subject to certain modifications. On August 31, 2005, the court issued a preliminary order further approving the modifications to the settlement and certifying the settlement classes. The court also appointed the Notice Administrator for the settlement and ordered that notice of the settlement be distributed to all settlement class members beginning on November 15, 2005, The settlement fairness hearing took place on April 24, 2006. If the court determines that the settlement is fair to the class members, the settlement will be approved. The settlement releases IIJ and the individual defendants for liability for the conduct alleged in the action. Under the settlement, the Company agreed to assign away, not assert, or release certain potential claims the Company may have against IIJ's underwriters. Approximately 260 defendant issuers participated in this settlement. As to financial impact on the Company, the settlement provides that the class members will be guaranteed $1 billion in recoveries by the insurers of the issuers. In addition to IIJ's portion of the proposed settlement, some of the continuing legal expenses incurred in connection with the partial settlement would be borne by IIJ's insurer based on the settlement agreement and an individual agreement between IIJ and IIJ's insurer. Consequently, the Company believes that there will be no significant financial impact on the Company as a result of this matter. In addition to the foregoing, the Company is a party to other suits and claims that arise in the normal course of business. The negative adverse outcome of such suits and claims would not have a significant impact on the financial statements. In January 19, 2006, IIJ entered into a joint venture agreement regarding the establishment and management of Internet Revolution Inc. ("i-revo") with Konami corporation. In the agreement, IIJ committed an additional contribution for capital investment or working capital to i-revo of up to JPY 90,000 thousand for the period from November 2006 to April 2007. 7. DERIVATIVE AND OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Interest Rate Swap Agreement The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates that are associated with long-term bank borrowings. The Company's policy on managing the interest rate risk is to hedge the exposure to variability in future cash flows of floating rate interest payments on the long-term bank borrowings. In order to reduce cash flow risk exposures on floating rate borrowings, the Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements to convert a floating rate borrowing to a fixed rate borrowing. The Company is also exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to interest rate swaps, but it is not expected that any counterparties will fail to meet their obligations, because counterparties are internationally recognized financial institutions. Changes in fair value of interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income during the three months ended June 30, 2006, the three months ended June 30, 2005 and the year ended March 31, 2006. These amounts subsequently are reclassified into interest expense as a yield adjustment in the same period in which the hedged bank borrowings affect earnings. The term, notional amount, and repricing date of interest rate swaps exactly match those of the long-term borrowings. The swap terms are "at the market," so they have zero value at inception. Thus, there was no ineffectiveness recognized in earning for the three months ended June 30, 2006, the three months ended June 30, 2005 and the year ended March 31, 2006. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the three months ended June 30, 2005 and the year ended March 31, 2006, net derivative loss of JPY 751 thousand, JPY 752 thousand and JPY 10,008 thousand were reclassified to interest expense, respectively. Approximately JPY 6,988 thousand of accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the interest rate swaps are expected to be reclassified as an adjustment to interest expense as a yield adjustment of the hedged bank borrowings within the next 12 months. 8.
