In fiscal 2007, distribution of economic value to suppliers and partners increased compared with the previous year in line with a 551.7 billion yen increase in consolidated net sales. Also, distribution to shareholders increased as a result of a 1 yen per share increase in cash dividends of Toshiba Corp. for the entire year.
On the other hand, distribution to government/authorities decreased owing to a 42.9 billion yen decrease in income before income taxes as a result of a great decline in profits of the Electronic Devices business.
