F-68 					 Rogers Inoac Corporation 					 Notes to Financial Statements 					 	October 31, 1993 1 Significant Account Policies Basis of Financial Statements The Company was incorporated under the Commercial Code of Japan in January 1984, and is owned 50% by Rogers Corporation (a U.S. corporation) and 50% by Inoac Corporation (a Japanese corporation). Until 1990, the Company's fiscal year end for the purpose of the Commercial Code of Japan was December 31 and for the purpose of reporting to Rogers Corporation was November 30. In 1991, the fiscal year end was changed to October 31 for both reporting purposes. The Company maintains its official accounting records and prepares its financial statements for domestic purposes in yen in accordance with Japanese accounting practices. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and differ from those issued for domestic purposes in Japan. Accordingly, the financial statements reflect adjustments not recorded in the Company's official accounting records. These adjustments are explained in Note 2 to the financial statements. Cash and Cash Equivalents For the purpose of the statements of cash flow, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Plant and Equipment Plant and equipment is stated on the basis of cost. Depreciation is computed by the declining-balance method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. 				 F-69 					 Rogers Inoac Corporation 				 Notes to Financial Statements (continued) Income Taxes The Company computes and records current income taxes payable based upon its determination of taxable income which is different from pretax accounting income. The differences relate principally to the adjustments required to conform the accompanying financial statements to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Deferred income taxes arising from temporary differences are not recognized in the official accounting records; however, they are included in the adjustments explained in Note 2 to the financial statements. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," in the year ended October 31, 1993. The effect of this change on net income in the years presented is not material. 2 Adjustments Not Reflected in the Official Accounting Records The following adjustments, not reflected in the official accounting records, have been made to conform the Company's Japanese yen-based financial statements to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP): 					 Retained Retained 				 earnings at Net income earnings 					beginning Appropria- for the at end of 					of period tions period period 					--------------------------------------------------------- 						 (Thousands of Yen) Year ended October 31, 1993: As recorded in the official accounting records 465,035 16,000 160,786 609,821 Japanese GAAP adjustments: Income tax provision 98,000 0 19,000 117,000 			--------------------------------------------------------- Per Japanese GAAP 563,035 16,000 179,786 726,821 U.S. GAAP adjustments: Accrued compensated absences (10,382) 0 (1,933) (12,315) Accrued directors' bonuses (5,000) (5,000) (5,000) (5,000) Prepaid expenses 0 0 12,980 12,980 Deferred income taxes 19,766 0 (12,192) 7,574 			 ---------------------------------------------------------- 					 4,384 (5,000) (6,145) 3,239 				 ---------------------------------------------------------- As adjusted to U.S. GAAP 567,419 11,000 173,641 730,060 				 ========================================================== 				 F-70 					 Rogers Inoac Corporation 	 			 Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 3 Income Taxes Income taxes include corporation, enterprise, and inhabitants' taxes which, in the aggregate, resulted in a statutory tax rate of approximately 52.3% for 1993, 1992 and 1991. The Company made income tax payments of 243,630 thousand yen, 209,855 thousand yen and 176,174 thousand yen during 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. For the years ended October 31, 1993 and 1992 and the eleven months ended October 31, 1991, the differences between the statutory income tax rate and the effective tax rates are reconciled as follows: 								 	Eleven 								 months ended 				 Year ended October 31, October 31, 				 1993 1992 1991 				 ------------------------------------------ 						 (Thousands of yen) Statutory income tax rate 52.3% 52.3% 52.3% Tax effect of: Expenses not deductible for tax purposes 1.0 0.9 1.3 Other 0.8 1.3 0.9 				 ------------------------------------------ PEffective tax rates 54.1% 54.5% 54.5% 				 ========================================= Net deferred tax assets and liabilities as of October 31, 1993 and 1992 were as follows: 							 1993 1992 						 ------------------------- 							 (Thousands of yen) Deferred tax assets 14,363 19,766 Deferred tax liabilities (6,789) 0 						 ------------------------ 							 7,574 19,766 						 ======================== Temporary differences at October 31, 1993 and 1992 mainly consisted of accrued expenses that gave rise to deferred tax assets, and prepaid expenses that gave rise to deferred tax liabilities. The total tax effect of these temporary differences is recognized in the statements of income and retained earnings. 				 F-71 					 Rogers Inoac Corporation 				 Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 4 Transactions with Affiliates A substantial portion of the Company's business is conducted through its Japanese parent, Inoac Corporation ("Inoac") and its subsidiaries, which purchase the Company's products for resale. Inoac also provided certain services to the Company for which it charged a management service fee. Balances due from and due to affiliates at October 31, 1993 and 1992, and transactions with affiliates for the years ended October 31, 1993 and 1992 and the eleven months ended October 31, 1991 are as follows: 							 October 31, 						 1993 1992 						 -------------------------- 							(Thousands of yen) Due from: Inoac and its subsidiaries and affiliates 343,101 353,023 						 ========================== Due to: Inoac and its subsidiaries and affiliates 234,122 260,213 Rogers Corporation 1,658 639 	 					 ------------------------- 						 235,780 260,852 					 ========================= 								 Eleven 								 months ended 				 Year ended October 31, October 31, 				 1993 1992 1991 				 ------------------------------------------- 						(Thousands of yen) Inoac and its subsidiaries and affiliates: Sales to 3,450,295 3,517,731 2,998,288 Purchases from 1,423,172 1,419,962 1,096,223 Management service fee 53,591 59,993 47,103 Plant and office rent 49,501 47,736 43,758 Purchases of equipment 5,611 0 3,500 Subcontractors' fee 352,746 423,080 305,656 Rogers Corporation: Commission income 819 4,113 2,265 Sales commission 7,340 9,496 11,464 Interest income 7,079 0 0 		 F-72 					 Rogers Inoac Corporation 				 Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 5 Interest Paid Interest paid for the year ended October 31, 1993 and 1992 and the eleven months ended October 31, 1991 amounted to 1,232 thousand yen, 101 thousand yen and 936 thousand yen, respectively. 6 Pension Cost All employees of the Company are seconded from its Japanese parent, Inoac, and are covered by Inoac's pension plan and Inoac bears the ultimate pension obligation for these employees. The Company reimburses Inoac for the current pension cost for these employees. Amounts charged to the Company by Inoac for its pension plan for the years ended October 31, 1993 and 1992, and the eleven months ended October 31, 1991 amounted to 5,050 thousand yen, 5,076 thousand yen and 4,263 thousand yen, respectively. A director of the Company, who is also a director of Inoac, is not covered by the pension plan. Payments of termination benefits to the directors are at the discretion of the shareholders of the Company and are not determinable in advance of a resolution by the shareholders covering such payments. Consequently, no provision for the directors' termination benefits has been included in the accompanying financial statements. 7 Retained Earnings and Legal Reserve The amount of retained earnings available for distribution to the shareholders is based on the financial statements prepared under the Commercial Code of Japan. The Commercial Code of Japan provides that a legal reserve be appropriated until such reserve equals 25% of stated capital (common stock). The legal reserve is not available for dividends, but may be used to reduce a deficit by resolution of the shareholders or may be capitalized by resolution of the Board of Directors. The amount of unrestricted retained earnings available at October 31, 1993 for dividends was approximately 609,821 thousand yen. 				 F-73 					 Rogers Inoac Corporation 				 Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) 8 Commitments The Company leases certain equipment under leases which are noncancelable. Future minimum payments, by year and in the aggregate, for equipment under noncancelable operating leases with terms of one year or more consisted of the following at October 31, 1993: 					 Thousands of yen 					 ---------------- 	 1994 2,306 	 1995 868 	 1996 474 	 1997 63 						 ----------- 						 3,711 						 =========== For the year ended October 31, 1993 and 1992 and the eleven months ended October 31, 1991, total rental expense for all operating leases amounted to 53,865 thousand yen, 53,715 thousand yen and 55,282 thousand yen, respectively. Under its capital expenditure program, the Company has estimated that a total expenditure of 314,500 thousand yen, of which 39,571 thousand yen was expended as of October 31, 1993, will be required for a new plant facility which will be completed by the end of January 1994. 9 Amounts per Share The computation of net income per share is based on the weighted average number of shares (880 shares) of common stock outstanding during each period. Cash dividends per share represent the cash dividends proposed by the Board of Directors as applicable to the respective periods.
