Highlights of Full FY2009 Financial Results

• Revenues were JPY68,006 million ($728.1 million), down 2.5% YoY. While connectivity and outsourcing service grew steadily, systems integration revenue was heavily affected by the decrease in IT related investments in Japan.
• Operating income was JPY3,412 million ($36.5 million), up 16.9% YoY, mainly due to the increase in connectivity and outsourcing service gross margin and the decrease in administrative expenses. Operating loss related to the ATM operation business was JPY1,000 million ($10.7 million).
• Net income attributable to IIJ² was JPY2,234 million ($23.9 million), up 57.4% YoY.
• FY2009 year-end cash dividend forecast was revised from JPY1,000 to JPY1,250 per share of common stock (FY2009 total dividend of JPY2,250, up from JPY2,000 as previously planned).

Highlights of Fourth Quarter FY2009 Financial Results

• Revenues were JPY19,694 million ($210.9 million), up 4.0% YoY. Systems construction revenues increased due to seasonal factors and outsourcing service continuously increased YoY, respectively.
• Operating income was JPY1,404 million ($15.0 million), up 30.9% YoY, mainly due to the increase in SI gross margin and the decrease in administrative expenses.
• Net income attributable to IIJ was JPY1,101 million ($11.8 million), up 3.4% YoY.

Financial Targets for FY2010

• IIJ targets revenues of JPY71.0 billion, operating income of JPY4.3 billion, income before income tax expense (benefit)² of JPY3.7 billion and net income attributable to IIJ of JPY2.6 billion for FY2010.

Overview of Full FY2009 Financial Results and Business Outlook

"It has been truly a tough year for us with the drop in Japanese IT investments heavily affecting our revenue," said Koichi Suzuki, President and CEO of IIJ. "Yet, amid the tough economic situation, we have exceeded our full year profit target," continued Suzuki.

"Recurring revenue steadily increased YoY followed by the continuous demands for outsourcing services for cost reduction purposes. The increase in contracted number of over Gbps connectivity is also a supporting fact that demands for higher bandwidth connectivity remains. Additionally, our continuous effort for cost reduction has resulted in the improvement in profitability. Accordingly, despite the weak Japanese economy, our profit exceeded our full year target. We have also raised our FY2009 year-end cash dividend to JPY1,250 from JPY1,000 per share of common stock in response to our business results.

"We have also made achievements in the Group business strategy. We've merged two of our 100% consolidated subsidiary, which mainly provides SI, on April 1, 2010 to operate the Group more efficiently as well as to seize opportunities to further enhance our business in the IT service market. This merger will allow us to combine and strengthen our network service and SI business structure.

"As for our FY2010 business environment, although how strongly the SI revenues will return is still uncertain, we are seeing signs of recovery in systems construction along with the slow but recovering economy. We believe Japanese companies have been refraining from IT investment for more than enough time and that they will eventually need to start investing in order for them to maintain competitiveness. Our new cloud computing service "IIJ GIO" is also starting up well and are expected to contribute to revenue in the coming fiscal year. And of course, demands for higher bandwidth connectivity and outsourcing services remain. There are positive factors for our future business outlook.

"For our ATM operation business, it is currently in its starting-up phase. We are propelling to start-up a business, similar to Seven Bank's ATM operation business, and we target to reach break even at some point during the later half of FY2010."

FY2010 Financial Targets (announced on May 14, 2010)

Our targets for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011 are as follows:

				(JPY in millions)
	Revenues	Operating  Income	Income before Income Tax Expense (Benefit)	Net Income attributable to IIJ
1H FY2010	32,300	1,200	1,100	800
Full FY2010	71,000	4,300	3,700	2,600

We target revenue of JPY71,000 million (up 4.4% YoY), operating income of JPY4,300 million (up 26.0% YoY), income before income tax expense (benefit) of JPY3,700 million (up 29.4% YoY) and net income attributable to IIJ of JPY2,600 million (up 16.4% YoY) for the full FY2010 financial targets.

We expect our connectivity and outsourcing service revenues, a recurring revenue, to continue to increase steadily along with its ordinary course of growth. As for the systems integration, while demands are expected to increase, the full recover of IT investments are still uncertain, and because the order backlog for systems operation and maintenance as of March 2010 decreased by JPY1,613 million YoY as a result of a size-down in a certain contracted account, we expect systems integration revenue to decrease compared to FY2009. As for the ATM operation business which is in its business start-up phase, while we target to reach break even at some point during the later half of FY2010, we expect operating loss of around JPY400 million related to this business for FY2010.

(2) Business Diagram

The overview of the IIJ Group’s business at the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 is illustrated as follows:

Management Policies

 (1) Basic Management Policies

IIJ aims to contribute in creating a new market and in innovating industries by leading the information technology industry of Japan with Internet technology. By practicing its management philosophy, it also continuously seeks to maximize its corporate value and to fulfill its social responsibility.

(2) Target Management Indicators

In conducting its business activities, the IIJ Group pays attention to the composition of total revenues, profitability, financial position, and other factors. The IIJ Group is making efforts to enhance its profitability by increasing revenues and controlling costs and general and administrative expenditures, while closely watching its revenue growth ratio, gross margin ratio, operating margin ratio and other figures.

(3) Issues that we face and Middle and Long-term Business Strategies

We believe that the Japanese economy will gradually recover. For the recent IT service market  surrounding our Group, as a result of the progress in internet related technology, communication and data processing are provided based on the same technological platform, as seen in the emergence of cloud computing concept. And the trend to outsource data processing and network as one network system infrastructure is expected to increase.

To seize this opportunity to further enhance our business in the future, it has become even more important to share our group business strategy and to combine our network service and the SI business for a stronger business structure. Thus we have merged our 100% owned consolidated subsidiary, IIJ Technology Inc. and IIJ Financial Systems Inc, which mainly provides SI. We will focus on increasing revenues and improve profitability under the new management team by maximizing our superiority in internet related technology to develop advanced, highly value added and reliable total network solution for corporate users and governmental organizations.

For ATM operation business which is in its business start-up phase, we aim for an early business start-up by steady increase in revenue and adequate cost control. Further, we will focus on its business development for it to contribute to consolidated revenue and operating income growth in the mid-term.

(4) Other Issues to be Addressed

IIJ provides Internet connectivity services for the amount of JPY922 thousand, to Applied Research Institute, Inc. which Koichi Suzuki, President and CEO of IIJ has 100% voting right. It is conducted under normal business relationship.

Effective July 1, 2009, IIJ adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 105, "Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (the provisions of which were previously included in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168 “Accounting Standards Codification and the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles”). This pronouncement prescribes the change which divides non-governmental U.S. GAAP into the authoritative Codification and the non-authoritative guidance, doing away with the previous fourlevel hierarchy.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform to the current year presentation: (1) Upon the adoption of ASC810, "Noncontrolling interests", which were previously referred to as "Minority interests" and classified between "Total liabilities" and "Shareholders' equity" in the consolidated balance sheets, are now included as a separate component of "Equity". (2) "Net income" in the consolidated statements of income now includes net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, which was previously referred to as "Minority interests" and deducted.  (3) We have separated both deferred tax assets (current and non-current) from other current assets and other assets, respectively, due to the increase in the materiality.

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IIJ and all of its subsidiaries, Net Care, IIJ-Tech, IIJ America, IIJ-FS, NCJ, GDX, hi-ho, Trust Networks, On-Demand Solutions and IIJ-II, which all, except for IIJ America, have fiscal years ending March 31. IIJ America's fiscal year end is December 31 and such date was used for purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements as it is not practicable for the subsidiary to report its financial results as of March 31. There were no significant events that occurred during the intervening period that would require adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in companies over which IIJ has significant influence but not control are acco unted 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. On-demand solutions was dissolved on September 30, 2009 due to the change in its business environment and completed its liquidation on January 29, 2010.

New Accounting Standards

Business Combinations

Effective April 1, 2009, IIJ adopted ASC805, "Business Combinations". ASC805 requires an acquirer in a business combination to generally recognize and measure all the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, goodwill and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The adoption of ASC805 did not have any impact on IIJ's results of operations and financial position as there were no business combinations during the year ended March 31, 2010, however the impact in the future would depend on the size and the detail of the business combination.

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements

Effective April 1, 2009, IIJ adopted ASC810-10-65, "Consolidation-Transition Related to FASB Statement No.160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of ARB No.51", which was formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No.51". The Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The adoption of ASC810-10-65  did not have a material impact on IIJ's results of operations and financial position

NET INCOME PER SHARE (Unaudited)

Basic and diluted net income per common share computation for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2009 and 2010 is as follows.

	Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2009	Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2010
Numerator:
Net income (Thousands of Yen)	1,419,304	2,234,138

Denominator:
Basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding	205,165	202,544
Effect by stock option	30	-
Diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding	205,195	202,544

Basic net income per share (YEN)	6,917.87	11,030.38
Diluted net income per share (YEN)	6,916.85	11,030.38

For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, the number of the potentially dilutive shares excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share, because the exercise prices of the options were greater than the average market price of the common shares, was 950 shares and 925 shares, respectively.
