Komori Manufacturing Facilities Resume Normal Production

Thursday 24. March 2011 - Following is information regarding the current status of Komori Corporation production facilities as of March 23, 2011.

Production in the Tsukuba Plant and subsidiary factories in Yamagata prefecture resumed normal production on March 22, 2011.
While we have experienced some delay in the procurement of parts and materials used in the manufacture of our printing equipment due to traffic restrictions and scheduled electrical power outages, the situation is improving and we expect full resolution in the coming days.
While scheduled power outages have been implemented, we have made the necessary adjustments in our manufacturing schedule to accommodate for this and it will not halt or obstruct production.
Fuel supplies continue to improve and logistics will return to normal status by March 28, 2011.
We do expect some limited delay in press shipments in the short term, but expect the situation to return to normal by mid to end of April, 2011.
We want to apologize for any inconvenience this is causing our customers and appreciate your understanding during this difficult time. We will continue to work tirelessly to improve our situation and resume 100% normal operations as quickly as possible.
Concerning future conditions, we will continue to keep our customers informed with updates whenever necessary.
