NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED QUARTERLY CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1. ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, PROCEDURES AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PRESENTATION
In December 1975, Kyocera Corporation filed a registration statement, Form S-1 and a registration form for American Depositary Receipt (ADR) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 and made a registration of its common stock and ADR there. In February 1980, Kyocera Corporation again filed Form S-1 and a registration form for ADR with the SEC in accordance with the mentioned act, and in May 1980, listed its ADR on the New York Stock Exchange.
Kyocera Corporation has filed Form 20-F as an annual report with the SEC, which includes the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, under section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Kyocera Corporation has also prepared quarterly consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America consist of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) and the SECs regulations for filing and reporting.
The following paragraphs identify the significant differences for Kyocera Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (Kyocera) between accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and accounting principles generally accepted in Japan.
(1) Revenue recognition
Kyocera adopts ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. Kyocera recognizes revenue when the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer and revenue can be reliably measured.
(2) Business combinations
Kyocera adopts ASC 805, Business Combinations. Kyocera adopts the acquisition method and measures identifiable assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests at fair value. Kyocera recognizes transaction and restructuring costs as expenses, and recognizes any tax adjustment made after the measurement period as income tax expenses. Kyocera records in-process research and development at fair value on acquisition date as a part of fair value of acquired business. In addition, Kyocera recognizes an asset acquired or a liability assumed in a business combination that arise from a contingency at fair value, at the acquisition date, if the acquisition date fair value of that asset or liability can be determined during the measurement period.
(3) Goodwill and other intangible assets
Kyocera adopts ASC 350, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, rather than being amortized, are tested for impairment at least annually, and also following any events and changes in circumstances that might lead to impairment.
(4) Lease accounting
Kyocera adopts ASC 840, Leases. Kyocera classifies a lease as an operating or a capital lease, and records all capital leases as an asset and an obligation.
6
(5) Benefit plans
Kyocera adopts ASC 715, CompensationRetirement Benefits. Kyocera recognizes the overfunded or underfunded status of its defined benefit postretirement plans as an asset or liability in the consolidated balance sheet and recognizes changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. Prior service cost is amortized by the straight-line method over the average remaining service period of employees. Actuarial gain or loss is recognized by amortizing a portion in excess of 10% of the greater of the projected benefit obligations or the market-related value of plan assets by the straight-line method over the average remaining service period of employees.
(6) Unused compensated absence
Kyocera adopts ASC 710, CompensationGeneral. Kyocera records accrued liabilities for compensated absences that employees have earned but have not yet used.
(7) Income taxes
Kyocera adopts ASC 740, Income Taxes. Kyocera records assets and liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits based on the premise of being subject to income tax examination by tax authorities, when it is more likely than not that tax benefits associated with tax positions will not be sustained.
(8) Stock issuance costs
Stock issuance costs, net of taxes are deducted from additional paid-in capital.
7
2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(1) Basis of consolidation and accounting for investments in affiliated companies
The quarterly consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Kyocera Corporation, its subsidiaries in which Kyocera has a controlling financial interest and a variable interest entity for which Kyocera Corporation is the primary beneficiary under ASC 810, Consolidation. All significant inter-company transactions and accounts are eliminated. Investments in 20% to 50% owned companies are accounted for by the equity method, whereby Kyocera includes in net income its equity in the earnings or losses from these companies.
The consolidated variable interest entity for which Kyocera Corporation is the primary beneficiary does not have a material impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
(2) Revenue recognition
Kyocera generates revenue principally through the sale of industrial components and telecommunications and information equipment. Kyoceras operations consist of the following seven reporting segments: 1) Fine Ceramic Parts Group, 2) Semiconductor Parts Group, 3) Applied Ceramic Products Group, 4) Electronic Device Group, 5) Telecommunications Equipment Group, 6) Information Equipment Group and 7) Others.
Kyocera recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer or services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. Sales to customers in each of the above segments are based on the specific terms and conditions contained in basic contracts with customers and firm customer orders which detail the price, quantity and timing of the transfer of ownership (such as risk of loss and title) of the products.
For most customer orders, the transfer of ownership and revenue recognition occurs at the time of shipment of the products to the customer. For the remainder of customer orders, the transfer of ownership and revenue recognition occurs at the time of receipt of the products by the customer, with the exception of sales of solar power generating systems in the Applied Ceramic Products Group and information equipment in the Information Equipment Group for which sales are made to end users together with installation services. The transfer of ownership and revenue recognition in these cases occur at the completion of installation and customer acceptance, as Kyocera have no further obligations under the contracts and all revenue recognition criteria under ASC 605 are met. When Kyocera provides a combination of products and services, the arrangement is evaluated under ASC 605-25, Multiple-Element Arrangements.
In addition, in the Information Equipment Group, Kyocera may enter into sales contracts and lease agreements ranging from one to seven years directly with end users. Sales contracts and lease agreements may include installation services and have customer acceptance clauses. For sales and sales-type lease agreements, revenue is recognized at the completion of installation and customer acceptance which usually occurs on the same business day as delivery. For sales-type leases, unearned income (which represents interest) is amortized over the lease term using the effective interest method in accordance with ASC 840, Leases.
For all sales in the above segments, product returns are only accepted if the products are determined to be defective. There are no price protections, stock rotation or returns provisions, except for certain programs in the Electronic Device Group as noted below.
Sales Incentives
In the Electronic Device Group, sales to independent electronic component distributors may be subject to various sale programs for which a provision for incentive programs is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time of sale, as further described below in accordance with ASC 605-50, Customer Payments and Incentives and ASC 605-15, Products.
8
(a) Distributor Stock Rotation Program
Stock rotation is a program whereby distributors are allowed to return for credit, qualified inventory, semi-annually, equal to a certain percentage of the previous six months net sales. In accordance with ASC 605-15, an estimated sales allowance for stock rotation is recorded at the time of sale based on a percentage of distributor sales using historical trends, current pricing and volume information, other market specific information and input from sales, marketing and other key management. These procedures require the exercise of significant judgments. Kyocera believes that these procedures enable Kyocera to make reliable estimates of future returns under the stock rotation program. Kyoceras actual results approximate its estimates. When the products are returned and verified, the distributor is given credit against their accounts receivables.
(b) Distributor Ship-from-Stock and Debit Program
Ship-from-Stock and Debit (ship and debit) is a program designed to assist distributors in meeting competitive prices in the marketplace on sales to their end customers. Ship and debit programs require a request from the distributor for a pricing adjustment of a specific part for a sale to the distributors end customers from the distributors stock. Ship and debit authorizations may cover current and future distributor activity for a specific part for a sale to their customers. In accordance with ASC 605, at the time Kyocera records the sales to distributors, an allowance for the estimated future distributor activities related to such sales is provided since it is probable that such sales to distributors will result in ship and debit activities. In accordance with ASC 605-15, Kyocera records an estimated sales allowance based on sales during the period, credits issued to distributors, distributor inventory levels, historical trends, market conditions, pricing trends noted in direct sales activity with original equipment manufacturers and other customers, and input from sales, marketing and other key management. These procedures require the exercise of significant judgments. Kyocera believes that these procedures enable Kyocera to make reliable estimates of future credits under the ship and debit program. Kyoceras actual results approximate its estimates.
Sales Rebates
In the case of sales to distributors in the Applied Ceramic Products Group and Information Equipment Group, Kyocera provides cash rebates when predetermined sales targets are achieved during a certain period. Provisions for sales rebates are recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time of revenue recognition based on the best estimate of forecasted sales to each distributor in accordance with ASC 605-50.
Sales Returns
Kyocera records an estimated sales returns allowance at the time of sales based on historical return experience.
Products Warranty
For after-service costs to be paid during warranty periods, Kyocera accrues a product warranty liability for claims under warranties relating to the products that have been sold. Kyocera records an estimated product warranty liability based on its historical repair experience with consideration given to the expected level of future warranty costs.
In the Information Equipment Group, Kyocera provides a standard one year manufacturers warranty on its products. For sales directly to end users, Kyocera offers extended warranty plans that may be purchased and that are renewable in one year incremental periods at the end of the warranty term. Service revenues are recognized over the term of the related service maintenance contracts in accordance with ASC 605-20, Services.
9
(3) Cash and cash equivalents
Kyocera considers cash, bank deposits and all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents accounted for under ASC 305, Cash and Cash Equivalents.
(4) Translation of foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities of consolidated foreign subsidiaries and affiliates accounted for by the equity method are translated into Japanese yen at the exchange rates in effect on the respective balance sheet dates. Operating accounts are translated at the average exchange rates for the respective periods accounted for under ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. Translation adjustments result from the process of translating foreign currency denominated financial statements into Japanese yen. These translation adjustments, which are not included in the determination of net income, are included in other comprehensive income.
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates in effect on the respective balance sheet dates, and resulting transaction gains or losses are included in the determination of net income.
(5) Allowance for doubtful accounts
Kyocera maintains allowances for doubtful accounts related to trade notes receivables, trade accounts receivables and finance receivables for estimated losses resulting from customers inability to make timely payments, including interest on finance receivables. Kyoceras estimates are based on various factors, including the length of past due payments, historical experience and current business environments. In circumstances where it is aware of a specific customers inability to meet its financial obligations, a specific allowance against these amounts is provided, considering the fair value of assets pledged by the customer as collateral. In addition, when Kyocera determines it is unable to collect receivables, Kyocera directly write-off these receivables to expenses in the period incurred.
(6) Inventories
Inventories are accounted for under ASC 330, Inventory. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. For finished goods and work in process, cost is determined by the average method for approximately 70% and 69% at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively, and by other methods including the first-in, first-out method for the others. For raw materials and supplies, cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method for approximately 59% and 62% at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011, and by other methods, including the average method for the others. Kyocera recognizes estimated write-down of inventories for excess, slow-moving and obsolete inventories.
(7) Securities
Debt and equity securities are accounted for under ASC 320, InvestmentsDebt and Equity Securities. Securities classified as available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from income and reported in other comprehensive income, net of taxes. Securities classified as held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost. Non-marketable equity securities are accounted for by the cost method in accordance with ASC 325, InvestmentsOther.
Kyocera evaluates whether the declines in fair value of securities are other-than-temporary. Other-than-temporary declines in fair value are recorded as a realized loss with a new cost basis. This evaluation is based mainly on the duration and the extent to which the fair value is less than cost, and the anticipated recoverability in fair value.
10
Kyocera also reviews its investments accounted for by the equity method for impairment quarterly in accordance with ASC 323, InvestmentsEquity Method and Joint Ventures. Factors considered in assessing whether an indication of other-than-temporary impairment exists include the achievement of business plan objectives and milestones including cash flow projections and the results of planned financing activities, the financial condition and prospects of each investee company, the fair value of the ownership interest relative to the carrying amount of the investment, the period of time during which the fair value of the ownership interest has been below the carrying amount of the investment and other relevant factors. Impairment to be recognized is measured based on the amount by which the carrying amount of the investment exceeds the fair value of the investment. Fair value is determined through the use of various methodologies such as discounted cash flows and comparable valuations of similar companies.
(8) Property, plant and equipment and depreciation
Property, plant and equipment are accounted for under ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. Kyocera provides for depreciation of buildings, machinery and equipment over their estimated useful lives primarily on the declining balance method. The principal estimated useful lives used for computing depreciation are as follows:
Buildings |
2 to 50 years | |
Machinery and equipment |
2 to 20 years |
Major renewals and betterments are capitalized as tangible assets and they are depreciated based on estimated useful lives. The costs of minor renewals, maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses in the period incurred. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the gains or losses thereon, computed on the basis of the difference between depreciated costs and proceeds, are credited or charged to income in the period of disposal, and costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from accounts.
(9) Goodwill and other intangible assets
Goodwill and other intangible assets are accounted for under ASC 350, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, rather than being amortized, are tested for impairment at least annually, and also following any events and changes in circumstances that might lead to impairment. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized straight line over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment which are accounted for under ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.
The principal estimated useful lives for intangible assets are as follows:
Software |
2 to 10 years | |
Patent rights |
2 to 12 years | |
Customer relationships |
3 to 20 years |
(10) Impairment of long-lived assets
Impairment of long-lived assets which include intangible assets with definite useful lives are accounted for under ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. Kyocera reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Long-lived assets are considered to be impaired when the expected undiscounted cash flows from the asset group is less than its carrying value. A loss on impairment is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets.
11
(11) Derivative financial instruments
Derivatives are accounted for under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. All derivatives are recorded as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are charged to income. However cash flow hedges may qualify for hedge accounting, if the hedging relationship is expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting cash flows of hedging instruments and hedged items. Under hedge accounting, changes in the fair value of the effective portion of these hedge derivatives are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income and charged to income when the underlying transaction being hedged occurs.
Kyocera designates certain foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. Most of Kyoceras foreign currency forward contracts are entered into as hedges of existing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. Accordingly, Kyocera records changes in fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts in income. It is expected that such changes will be offset by corresponding gains or losses on the underlying assets and liabilities.
Kyocera formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives designated as cash flow hedge to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or forecasted transactions. Kyocera also formally assesses, both at the hedges inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting cash flows of hedged items. When it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective hedge or that it has ceased to be a highly effective hedge, Kyocera discontinues hedge accounting prospectively. When a cash flow hedge is discontinued, the net derivative gains or losses remain in accumulated other comprehensive income, unless it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur at which point the derivative gains or losses are reclassified into income immediately.
(12) Stock-based compensation
Costs resulting from share-based payment transactions are accounted for under ASC 718, CompensationStock Compensation, Kyocera recognizes such costs in the quarterly consolidated financial statements by fair value based on measurement method. Under the modified prospective method, Kyocera recognizes compensation costs which include:
(a) | compensation cost for all stock options granted prior to, but not yet vested as of April 1, 2006, and |
(b) | compensation cost for all stock options granted or modified subsequent to April 1, 2006. |
(13) Net income attributable to shareholders of Kyocera Corporation
Earnings per share is accounted for under ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share attributable to shareholders of Kyocera Corporation is computed based on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period, and diluted earnings per share attributable to shareholders of Kyocera Corporation is computed based on the diluted average number of shares of stock outstanding during each period.
(14) Research and development expenses and advertising expenses
Research and development expenses, are accounted for under ASC 730, Research and Development, are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising expenses, are accounted for under ASC 720-35, Other ExpensesAdvertising Costs, are charged to operations as incurred.
12
(15) Use of estimates
The preparation of the quarterly consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the quarterly consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. However, actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
(16) Recently adopted accounting standards
On April 1, 2011, Kyocera adopted the FASBs Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangementsa consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force which addressed the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vender to account for products or services separately rather than as a combined unit. This accounting standard addresses how to separate deliverables and how to measure and allocate arrangement consideration to one or more units of accounting. The adoption of this accounting standard did not have a material impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
On April 1, 2011, Kyocera adopted the FASBs ASU No. 2010-28, When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. This accounting standard modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The adoption of this accounting standard did not have a material impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
On April 1, 2011, Kyocera adopted the FASBs ASU No. 2010-29, Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations. The amendments in this Update require a public entity that enters into business combination(s) to disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity in the comparative financial statements as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. As this accounting standard is a provision for disclosure, the adoption of this accounting standard did not have an impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
(17) Recently issued accounting standards
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This accounting standard amends current U.S. GAAP to create more commonality with IFRSs by harmonizing definitions and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This accounting standard will be effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard is not expected to have material impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. In presenting other comprehensive income and its components in financial statement, this accounting standard eliminates the current option which is to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. This standard also requires reclassifications between other comprehensive income and net income to be disclosed on the face of financial statements. This accounting standard will be effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. As this accounting standard is a provision for presentation, the adoption of this accounting standard will not have an impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
13
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment. This accounting standard permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. This accounting standard will be effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. As this accounting standard does not actually change how the impairment would be calculated, the adoption of this accounting standard will not have an impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
(18) Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications and format changes have been made to the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2011, the consolidated statements of income for six and three months ended September 30, 2010 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for six months ended September 30, 2010 to conform to the current presentation.

5. FAIR VALUE
Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1: | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. |
Level 2: | Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets. |
Level 3: | Unobservable inputs reflecting managements own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. |

The fair value of Level 2 investments is other than quoted price included within Level 1 that is observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data. Kyocera did not recognize any transfers between Levels 1 and 2 for the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2011.
The fair value of Level 3 investments is determined using input that is both unobservable and significant to the values of instruments being measured.
The fair value of Level 2 derivatives is estimated based on quotes from financial institutions. With respect to the detail information of derivatives, please refer to the Note 8 to the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements.
In accordance with the provisions of ASC 815-15, Embedded Derivatives, Kyocera elects the fair value option for all hybrid financial instruments. Gains on hybrid financial instruments in the amount of ¥85 million and ¥16 million were recorded in other, net on the consolidated statements of income for the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2011, respectively. Gains on hybrid financial instruments in the amount of ¥56 million and ¥2 million were recorded in other, net on the consolidated statements of income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2011, respectively.
The following table presents additional information about Level 3 corporate bonds and other debt securities measured at fair value on recurring basis for the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2011, and the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2011.

(a) | The fair value is based on quoted market prices. It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of non-marketable equity securities because of the lack of the market price and difficulty in estimating fair value without incurring excessive cost. In addition, Kyocera did not identify any events or changes in circumstances that may have had a significant adverse effect on these investments. The aggregated carrying amounts of these investments included in the above table at March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011 were ¥15,363 million and ¥15,341 million, respectively. |
(b) | The fair value is estimated by discounting cash flows, using current interest rates for instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities. |
Carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, other short-term investments, trade notes receivables, trade accounts receivables, short-term borrowings, trade notes and accounts payable, and other notes and accounts payable approximate fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

(2) Allowance for doubtful accounts related to lease receivables
Lease receivables represent capital leases which consist of sales-type leases. Most of the lease receivables are recognized at TA Triumph-Adler GmbH and its consolidated subsidiaries (TA), consolidated German subsidiaries of Kyocera Mita Corporation. These receivables typically have terms ranging from one year to seven years.

8. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING
Kyoceras activities are exposed to varieties of market risks, including the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and stock prices. Approximately 55% of Kyoceras net sales are generated from overseas customers, which expose Kyocera to foreign currency exchange rates fluctuations. These financial exposures are monitored and managed by Kyocera as an integral part of its overall risk management program. Kyoceras risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of these markets may have on its operating results.
Kyocera maintains a foreign currency risk management strategy that uses derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency forward contracts and currency swaps, to minimize the volatility in its cash flows caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Movements in foreign currency exchange rates pose a risk to Kyoceras operations and competitive position, since exchange rates changes may affect the profitability, cash flows, and business and/or pricing strategies of non Japan-based competitors. These movements affect cross-border transactions that involve, but not limited to, direct export sales made in foreign currencies and raw material purchases incurred in foreign currencies.
Kyocera maintains an interest rate risk management strategy that uses derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps to minimize significant, unanticipated cash flow fluctuations caused by interest rate volatility.
By using derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in exchange rates and interest rates, Kyocera became exposed to credit risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contracts. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes Kyocera, which creates repayment risk for Kyocera. When the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, Kyocera owes the counterparty and, therefore, it does not possess repayment risk. Kyocera minimizes the credit (or repayment) risk in derivative financial instruments by (a) entering into transactions with creditworthy counterparties, (b) limiting the amount of exposure to each counterparty, and (c) monitoring the financial condition of its counterparties.
Kyocera does not hold or issue such derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Cash Flow Hedges:
Kyocera uses certain foreign currency forward contracts with terms normally lasting for less than four months designated as cash flow hedges to protect against foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in its forecasted transactions related to purchase commitments and sales. Kyocera also uses interest rate swaps mainly to convert a portion of its variable rates debt to fixed rates debt.
Other Derivatives:
Kyoceras main direct foreign export sales and some import purchases are denominated in the customers and suppliers local currencies, principally the U.S. dollar and the Euro. Kyocera purchases foreign currency forward contracts and currency swaps to protect against the adverse effects that exchange rate fluctuations may have on foreign-currency-denominated trade receivables, payables and borrowings. The gains and losses on both the derivatives and the foreign-currency-denominated trade receivables, payables and borrowings are recorded as foreign currency transaction gains (losses), net in the consolidated statement of income. Kyocera does not adopt hedge accounting for such derivatives.

10. INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rates for the six and three months ended September 30, 2011 of 32.9% and 32.7% were higher than for the six and three months ended September 30, 2010 of 26.4% and 20.7%. The upward difference is mainly due to a reversal of valuation allowance against deferred tax assets at a certain overseas subsidiary for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

Kyocera has entered into purchase agreements for a certain portion of an anticipated quantity of materials used in its operations. Under those agreements, during the six months ended September 30, 2011 and during the three months ended September 30, 2011, Kyocera purchased ¥9,193 million and ¥4,755 million, respectively and is obligated to purchase ¥204,213 million in total by the end of December 2020.
Kyocera guarantees the debt of employees, an investee and an unconsolidated subsidiary. As of September 30, 2011, the total amount of these guarantees was ¥616 million. The financial guarantees are made in the form of commitments and letters of awareness issued to financial institutions and generally obligate Kyocera to make payments in the event of default by the borrowers.
AVX has been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), state governmental agencies or other private parties as a potentially responsible party (PRP) under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) or equivalent state or local laws for clean-up and response costs associated with sites at which remediation is required. Because CERCLA imposes joint and several liability, the EPA could seek to recover all clean-up costs from any one of the PRPs at a site despite the involvement of other PRPs. At certain sites, financially responsible PRPs other than AVX also are, or have been, involved in site investigation and clean-up activities. We believe that any liability resulting from these sites will be apportioned among AVX and other PRPs.
To resolve AVXs liability at each of the sites at which AVX has been named a PRP, AVX has entered into various administrative orders and consent decrees with federal and state regulatory agencies governing the timing and nature of investigation and remediation. AVX has paid, or reserved for, all estimated amounts required under the terms of these orders and decrees corresponding to its apportioned share of the liabilities. As is customary, the orders and decrees regarding sites where the PRPs are not themselves implementing the chosen remedy contain provisions allowing the EPA to reopen the agreement and seek additional amounts from settling PRPs in the event that certain contingencies occur, such as the discovery of significant new information about site conditions during clean-up or substantial cost overruns for the chosen remedy.
29
In 2007, AVX received notification from the EPA and the U.S. Department of Justice indicating that the United States is preparing to exercise the reopener provision under a 1991 consent decree relating to the environmental conditions at, and remediation of, New Bedford Harbor in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. In 1991, in connection with that consent decree, AVX paid ¥5,082 million, plus interest, toward the environmental conditions at, and remediation of, the harbor in settlement with the EPA and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, subject to reopener provisions, including a reopener if certain remediation costs for the site exceed ¥10,049 million. The EPA has indicated that remediation costs through October 22, 2010 were approximately ¥32,933 million, not all of which is subject to the reopener provisions. In March 2011, EPA issued a proposal providing alternative remedial action plan to the existing plan for which the future cost estimates ranging from ¥27,874 million to ¥30,877 million, net present value.
AVX has not received complete documentation of past response cost from EPA and therefore has not yet completed an investigation of the monies spent or its available defenses in light of the notification. AVX has also not yet determined whether it can avoid responsibility for all, or some portion, of these past or future costs because the remediation method has changed over time and costs can be appropriately allocated to parties other than AVX. AVX anticipates further discussions with the U.S. Department of Justice, the EPA, and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. AVX is continuing to investigate the claim as well as potential defenses and other actions with respect to the site. In light of the foregoing, it is not reasonably possible to estimate a range of loss and accordingly, no accrual for costs has been recorded at AVX. Therefore, the potential impact of this matter on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows cannot be determined at this time.
Kyocera is subject to various lawsuits and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. Kyocera consults with legal counsel and assesses the likelihood of adverse outcome of these contingencies. Kyocera records liabilities for these contingencies when the likelihood of an adverse outcome is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Based on the information available, management believes that damages, if any, resulting from these actions will not have a significant impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
