Independent Auditors’ Report
The Board of Directors
TDK Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of TDK Recording Media Sales Business (a division of TDK Corporation) as of March 31, 2007, and the related combined statements of income, owner’s net investment, and cash flows for the year then ended. These combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of TDK Recording Media Sales Business (a division of TDK Corporation) as of March 31, 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying combined financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2007 have been translated into United States dollars solely for the convenience of the reader. We have audited the translation and, in our opinion, the combined financial statements expressed in Yen have been translated into United States dollars on the basis set forth in the Note 2 to the combined financial statements.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements
1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Nature of Operations
On August 1, 2007 Japan time, TDK Corporation (TDK) completed the transfer of the TDK brand world wide Recording Media Sales Business and a license to use the TDK brand name for current and future recording media products to Imation Corp. (Imation) for consideration of approximately $261 million (based on recent average share price of Imation). Under the terms of the agreement, TDK has transferred all the shares of the following six subsidiaries to Imation:
TDK ONLINE SERVICES CORPORATION (TOSC)
TDK MARKETING EUROPE GmbH (TME)
TDK POLSKA SP. Z.O.O. (TPL)
TDK (AUSTRALIA) PTY. LTD. (TAP)
TDK RECORDING MEDIA HONG KONG CO., LTD. (TRH)
TDK MARKETING CORPORATION (TMK)
In addition, certain assets and liabilities relating to the Recording Media Sales Business have been transferred from the following three subsidiaries:
TDK ELECTRONICS CORPORATION (TEC)
TDK SINGAPORE (PTE) LTD. (TSP)
TDK (SHANGHAI) INTERNATIONAL TRADING CO., LTD. (TSH)
The accompanying combined financial statements have been presented on a carve-out basis with the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of the legal entities above except for TSP and TSH. TSP and TSH are mainly engaged in the electrical component sales business, and therefore only the Recording Media Sales Business segment of these entities has been included in the combined financial statements. Although certain assets and liabilities of TEC were retained by TDK, the entire balance of the entity is included in the combined financial statements as the affect of such assets and liabilities is immaterial to the combined financial position and results of operations. The combined entities are referred to as “the Recording Media Sales Business”.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination.
The Recording Media Sales Business purchases and sells products such as audio tapes, video tapes, CD-Rs, MDs, DVDs, and tape-based data storage media for computers. The Recording Media Sales Business sells recording media products to distribution agents and audio equipment manufacturers, mainly in Japan, Europe, and North America.
(b) Purpose and Basis of Preparation of Combined Financial Statements
The combined financial statements have been prepared for the sole purpose of Imation’s filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission in compliance with Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X and Form 8-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Each entity in the Recording Media Sales Business maintains their books of accounts in conformity with financial accounting standards of the countries of their domicile.
7
The combined financial statements presented herein reflect certain adjustments to present the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). However, the combined financial statements may not necessarily reflect the Recording Media Sales Business’ results of operations, financial position or cash flows in the future or what its results of operations, financial position or cash flows would have been if the Recording Media Sales Business had been a stand-alone entity.
The books and records of the entities that comprise the Recording Media Sales Business have been maintained on a separate company or division basis with direct revenues and expenses attributable to the entities credited or charged directly to the relevant accounts. The combined financial statements include allocations of certain indirect corporate expenses incurred by TDK. Such indirect corporate expenses include legal, accounting, information technology, human resources and similar costs. Allocations are made using a variety of methods that reflect the nature of the cost incurred and the Recording Media Sales Business’ activities. Such allocation methods are based on relative headcount and revenues, or direct attribution of payroll costs. These costs are included in the accompanying combined statement of income as selling, general and administrative expenses and were ¥1,122 million ($9,508 thousand) for the year ended March 31, 2007. Management believes that the assumptions and estimates used in preparation of the combined financial statements are reasonable.
The combined financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect dividends declared after March 31, 2007 by certain entities in the Recording Media Sales Business in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) Topic 1.B.3 as discussed in the Note 12.
(c) Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.
(d) Allowance for Doubtful Receivables
The allowance for doubtful receivables is the Recording Media Sales Business’ best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Recording Media Sales Business’ existing trade receivables, and is based on historical losses and current trends that are expected to impact realizability. An additional reserve for individual receivables is recorded when the Recording Media Sales Business becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings or deterioration in a customer’s operating results or financial position. If customer circumstances change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables is further adjusted.
(e) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined principally by the average cost method.
(f) Property, Plant and Equipment
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is principally computed by the straight-line method based on the following estimated useful lives:
| | | |
| Buildings | | 10 to 50 years |
| Machinery and equipment | | 3 to 20 years |
8
(g) | | Income Taxes |
|
| | For the purpose of combined financial statements, the Recording Media Sales Business has calculated its income tax provision on a separate reporting basis in accordance with SAB Topic 1.B.1. |
|
| | Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. |
|
| | Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Recording Media Sales Business uses a specific identification method to release the residual tax effects associated with components of owner’s net investment resulting from a change in tax law or rate. |
|
(h) | | Advertising Costs |
|
| | Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. |
|
(i) | | Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs |
|
| | Shipping and handling fees and costs amounted to ¥3,374 million ($28,593 thousand) for the year ended March 31, 2007, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the combined statement of income. |
|
(j) | | Foreign Currency Translation |
|
| | The combined financial statements are expressed in Japanese yen, the Recording Media Sales Business’ reporting currency. The functional currency of each entity is the local currency in which it operates. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52 (“SFAS 52”), “Foreign Currency Translation”, the assets and liabilities of the entities in the Recording Media Sales Business located outside Japan are translated into Japanese yen at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in other income (deductions), and those resulting from translation of financial statements are excluded from the statements of income and are recorded in owner’s net investment. |
|
(k) | | Use of Estimates |
|
| | Management of the Recording Media Sales Business has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these combined financial statements in conformity with the U.S. GAAP. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of, property, plant and equipment, trade receivables, inventories, and deferred income tax assets, the allocation of corporate expenses and assumptions related to the estimation of actuarial determined employee benefit obligations. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
9
(l) | | Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets |
|
| | Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. |
|
(m) | | Revenue Recognition |
|
| | The Recording Media Sales Business generates revenue through the sale of recording media products under certain contractual arrangements. The Recording Media Sales Business recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is probable. |
|
| | Revenue from sales of recording media products such as videotape and DVDs is recognized when the products are received by customers based on the Free On Board (FOB) destination sales term or when the products are delivered to carriers on the Carriage and Insurance Paid (CIP) sales term. |
|
| | The Recording Media Sales Business offers sales incentives through various programs to certain resellers and retailers. These sales incentives include product discounts, volume-based discounts, marketing development funds (“MDFs”), rebates and coupons, and are accounted for in accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 01-9 (“EITF 01-9”), “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of Vendor’s Product)”. Generally, under EITF 01-9, consideration given by a vendor to a customer is presumed to be a reduction of the selling price of goods and services, and, therefore, should be recognized as a reduction of revenue in the vendor’s income statement. The presumption may be overcome based on certain factors. These sales incentives totaled to ¥14,026 million ($118,864 thousand) for the year ended March 31, 2007. |
|
| | The Recording Media Sales Business also offers product discounts that are based on a percentage of the invoice price predetermined by spot contracts or based on contractually agreed amounts with resellers and retailers. Product discounts are recognized as a reduction of revenue at the time the related revenue is recognized and amounted to ¥6,586 million ($55,814 thousand) for the year ended March 31, 2007. |
|
| | Volume-based discounts are provided only if the resellers and retailers achieve a specified cumulative level of revenue during a specific period. Liabilities are recognized as a reduction of revenue for the expected sales incentive at the time the related revenue is recognized and are initially based on the estimation of sales volume by using historical experience on an individual customer basis. Estimates of expected sales incentives are evaluated and adjusted periodically based on actual revenue transactions and forecasts for the balance of the year or incentive period. Volume-based discounts recognized as a reduction of revenue amounted to ¥3,849 million ($32,619 thousand) for the year ended March 31, 2007. |
|
| | MDFs are provided to certain resellers and retailers as a contribution to or a sponsored fund for customers’ marketing programs, such as customers’ coupons, catalogue, sales contests and advertisements, mostly in the form of a subsidy. Under this program, we do not receive an identifiable benefit sufficiently separable from our customers. Accordingly, MDFs are accounted for as a reduction of revenue based on the annual contract or at the time the Recording Media Sales Business has incurred the obligation, if earlier, and amounted to ¥1,650 million ($13,983 thousand) for the year ended March 31, 2007. |
10
| | Consumer promotions mainly consist of coupons and mail-in rebates offered to end users, who are reimbursed by the Recording Media Sales Business to retailers or end users for the coupons or mail-in rebates redeemed. Liabilities are recognized at the time related revenue is recognized (or at the time of the offer if the sale to retailers occurs before the offer) for the expected number of coupons or mail-in rebates to be redeemed. The Recording Media Sales Business uses historical rates of redemption on similar offers for similar products to estimate redemption rates for current incentive offerings. Consumer promotions recognized as a reduction of revenue amounted to ¥1,436 million ($12,169 thousand) for the year ended March 31, 2007. |
|
| | The Recording Media Sales Business also provides slotting fees paid to certain retailers for putting the products of the Recording Media Sales Business at attractive areas or shelves in the store. Slotting fees are recognized as a reduction of revenue at the time the Recording Media Sales Business has incurred the obligation. Slotting fees recognized as a reduction of revenue amounted to ¥365 million ($3,093 thousand) for the year ended March 31, 2007. |
|
| | Additionally, the Recording Media Sales Business has advertising programs with certain resellers and retailers where the Recording Media Sales Business agrees to reimburse them for advertising cost incurred by them to put TDK products on their flyers, catalogues and billboards. The Recording Media Sales Business receives an identifiable benefit (advertising) in return for the consideration and that benefit is sufficiently separable because the Recording Media Sales Business could have purchased that advertising from other parties. Also, the Recording Media Sales Business can reasonably estimate the fair value of the benefit through obtaining sufficient evidence from the resellers and retailers in the form of the invoice issued by the third party providing the service to the resellers and retailers. Therefore, such advertising programs are expensed as selling, general and administrative expenses at the time the Recording Media Sales Business has incurred the obligation and amounted to ¥140 million ($1,186 thousand) for the year ended March 31, 2007. |
|
| | The Recording Media Sales Business allows limited right of returns in certain cases and reduces revenue for estimated future returns based upon historical experience at the time the related revenue is recorded. |
|
| | Warranties offered on the Recording Media Sales Business’ products are insignificant. |
|
(n) | | New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted |
|
| | In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”),“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. FIN 48 establishes the threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax-return positions in the combined financial statements as “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the taxing authority, and prescribes a measurement methodology for those positions meeting the recognition threshold. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Recording Media Sales Business is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of FIN 48 will have on the Recording Media Sales Business’ combined financial position and results of operations. |

2. | | Financial Statement Translation |
|
| | The Japanese yen amounts as of and for the year ended March 31, 2007, have been translated into U.S. dollar amounts, solely for the convenience of the reader, at the rate of ¥118 = U.S.$1, the approximate exchange rate on the Tokyo Foreign Exchange Market on March 31, 2007. This translation should not be construed as a representation that the amounts shown could be converted into U.S. dollars at such rate. |

|
| | The domestic entity of the Recording Media Sales Business is subject to a Japanese national corporate tax of 30 percent, an inhabitants tax of between 5.2 percent and 6.2 percent and a deductible enterprise tax of between 7.7 percent and 8.0 percent, which in the aggregate resulted in a statutory rate of approximately 40.4 percent for the year ended March 31, 2007. |

Reversal of TEC’s valuation allowance represents the deferred tax benefit recognized as a result of reversal of TEC’s valuation allowance for deferred tax assets primarily due to the increase in profitability experienced during the year ended March 31, 2007. Although the deferred tax benefit was recognized in the combined statement of income, related deferred tax assets were not recorded on the combined balance sheet because TEC transferred deferred tax assets to TDK U.S.A. Corporation (TUC) prior to the disposal of the Recording Media Sales Business and accounted for the transfer as a non-cash dividend at the end of year as discussed in the Note 12.

The net change in the total valuation allowance for the year ended March 31, 2007 is a decrease of ¥69 million ($585 thousand). The valuation allowance primarily relates to deferred tax assets associated with net operating loss carryforwards. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and tax carryforwards are utilized. Management considered the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Recording Media Sales Business will realize the benefits of these deductible differences and tax carryforwards, net of the existing valuation allowance at March 31, 2007.
At March 31, 2007, certain entities in the Recording Media Sales Business have net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes of ¥5,015 million ($42,500 thousand) which are available to offset future taxable income, if any. Such operating loss carryforwards would be limited upon the change of control resulting from the acquisition by Imation.
Periods available to offset future taxable income vary in each tax jurisdiction and range from one year to an indefinite period as follows:

At March 31, 2007, certain entities in the Recording Media Sales Business have tax credit carryforwards for income tax purposes of ¥59 million ($500 thousand) which are available to reduce future income taxes, if any, in the indefinite carryforward period.

On March 31, 2007, the Recording Media Sales Business adopted the recognition and disclosure provisions of SFAS 158,“Employer’s Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)”. SFAS 158 requires the Recording Media Sales Business to recognize the funded status (i.e., the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligations) of its pension plans in the combined balance sheet, with a corresponding adjustment to owner’s net investment, net of tax. The adjustment to owner’s net investment at adoption represents the unrecognized net actuarial loss which was previously netted against the plans’ funded status in the combined balance sheet pursuant to the provisions of SFAS 87,“Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”. This amount will be subsequently recognized as net periodic benefit cost pursuant to the Recording Media Sales Business’ historical accounting policy for amortizing such amount. Further, actuarial gains and losses that arise in subsequent periods and are not recognized as net periodic benefit cost in the same periods will be recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Those amounts will be subsequently recognized as a component of net periodic benefit cost on the same basis as the amounts recognized in owner’s net investment at adoption of SFAS 158.
The incremental effects of adopting the provisions of SFAS 158 on the accompanying combined balance sheet at March 31, 2007 are presented in the following table. The adoption of SFAS 158 had no effect on the combined statement of income for the year ended March 31, 2007 and it will not effect the Recording Media Sales Business’ operating results in future periods.

Assumptions
Weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations at March 31, 2007 are as follows:
| | | | |
Discount rate | | | 5.0 | % |
Assumed rate of increase in future compensation levels | | | 3.9 | % |
Weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost for the year ended March 31, 2007 are as follows:
| | | | |
Discount rate | | | 4.8 | % |
Assumed rate of increase in future compensation levels | | | 3.7 | % |
Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets | | | 5.0 | % |
The Recording Media Sales Business determines the expected long-term rate of return based on the expected long-term return of the various asset categories in which it invests. The Recording Media Sales Business considers the current expectations for future returns and the actual historical returns of each plan asset category.
Plan assets
The weighted-average asset allocations of the Recording Media Sales Business’ benefit plans at March 31, 2007 by asset category are as follows:
| | | | |
Equity securities | | | 49.3 | % |
Debt securities | | | 35.4 | % |
Other | | | 15.3 | % |
| | | | |
| | | 100.0 | % |
| | | | |
The Recording Media Sales Business’ investment policies are designed to ensure adequate plan assets are available to provide future payments of pension benefits to eligible participants. Taking into account the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, the Recording Media Sales Business formulates a “model” portfolio comprised of the optimal combination of equity securities, debt securities and others. Plan assets are invested in individual equity, debt securities and others using the guidelines of the “model” portfolio in order to produce a total return that will match the expected return on a mid-term to long-term basis. The Recording Media Sales Business evaluates the gap between expected return and actual return of invested plan assets on an annual basis to determine if such differences necessitate a revision in the formulation of the “model” portfolio. The Recording Media Sales Business revises the “model” portfolio when and to the extent considered necessary to achieve the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets.
