PART IV

Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules

      (a) 1.     Financial Statements

      The following is a list of the Financial Statements included in Item 8 of the Form 10-K Report:

	Page
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm		47
Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2004 and 2003		48
Consolidated Statements of Income for the Years Ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002		49
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the Years Ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002		50
Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity for the Years Ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002		51
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements		52

      2.     Financial Statement Schedules

      Except as noted below, schedules not included herein are omitted because they are inapplicable or not required or because the required information is given in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

      The financial statements of the Company’s Nordesclor joint venture and Koppers Arch joint venture have been summarized within the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements due to the significance of their results to the consolidated Company. Separate financial statements of the remaining 50% or less owned companies accounted for by the equity method are not summarized herein and have been omitted because they would not constitute a significant subsidiary.

      Due to the significance of the Company’s former FUJIFILM Arch joint venture as of December 31, 2003, the Company filed audited financial statements of the joint venture for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004 and certain unaudited financial information for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, pursuant to SEC Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X. The Company filed the financial statements as an amendment to its December 31, 2003 10-K on July 22, 2004.

      In February 2005, the SEC staff asked the Company to amend its 2003 10-K filing to include audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003 and unaudited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 for this joint venture. Under the staff's interpretation, the Company was required to perform the test of significance in 2003, of the prior year, utilizing the restated financial information for 2002 that resulted from a business being treated as discontinued operations. As a result, the joint venture was a significant subsidiary in 2002 as well as 2003. The Company appealed the staff’s position. That appeal was successful. However, the SEC staff and the Company ultimately agreed to file audited financial statements of this joint venture for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2005. This joint venture which was sold in connection with the sale of the majority of its microelectronic materials business in 2004 and which along with the other microelectronic materials businesses sold are reflected as discontinued operations in the Company’s financial statements for all periods contained in this Report.  The joint venture is now known as FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd.

      The Company has filed audited consolidated financial statements for FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. (formerly known as FUJIFILM Arch Co., Ltd.) and its subsidiaries with this Report. Such financial statements are as follows:

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the Years Ended March 31, 2003 (unaudited), 2004 and 2005

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

      In light of the particular factors and circumstances regarding this matter, the Company has modified its detailed procedures in preparation of its 10-K to add a specific reference that Rule 1-02(w) be reviewed in light of the staff’s position in the event of a restatement.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors

FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. (a Japanese corporation) and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2004 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our auditsin accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards. 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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2004 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the yearsthen ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2005, have been translated into United States dollars solely for the convenience of the reader. We have recomputed the translation and, in our opinion, the consolidated financial statements expressed in yen have been translated into United States dollars on the basis set forth in note 2 of the consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1) Description of Business, Basis of Financial Statements and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices

(a) Description of Business

FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. (the “Company”), formerly FUJIFILM Arch Co., Ltd., was incorporated in Japan on July 29, 1983, under a joint venture agreement between Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. (“FUJI”) and Arch Specialty Chemicals, Inc. (“ASC”), (a subsidiary of Arch Chemicals, Inc. (“ARCH”)). On November 30, 2004, FUJI acquired the remaining 49 percent ownership interest that it did not already own in the Company from ASC and at the same time ARCH sold the majority of the operations of its Microelectronic Materials business (“AMM”) to FUJI. As a result of the acquisition transaction, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of FUJI and changed its corporate name to FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. Prior to the transaction, FUJI had a 51 percent ownership interest and ASC had a 49 percent ownership interest in the Company. Upon acquisition of the AMM business FUJI contributed the net assets of AMM business in Hong Kong and Singapore principally consisting of accounts receivable, inventories and accounts payable to the Company at the then net book value of ¥316,792 thousand ($2,949,921), which is payable in cash to FUJI and is included in Short term loans - FUJI in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The operations of the AMM business in Hong Kong and Singapore are not material to the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

The Company manufactures and distributes photo-resist products for semiconductor devices and color resist products for color filter array incorporated in flat panel display devices and color imaging devices. The Company also distributes FUJI TAC WV films for liquid crystal display panels and other microelectronic materials used in the manufacturing process for semiconductor devices, color filter array, photo-mask making and printed wire board. The Company has a manufacturing plant in Japan and wholly owned subsidiaries in Taiwan and Korea, which have been established for on-site production and reinforcement of marketing activities. The Company also has wholly owned subsidiaries in Hong Kong and Singapore, which are engaged in the former AMM business.

Total revenue consisted of photo-resist products, color resist products, FUJI TAC WV films and other microelectronic materials, representing 25%, 37%, 30% and 8%, representing 22%, 32%, 39% and 7%, and representing 24%, 25%, 48% and 3%, respectively, of the total for the years ended March 31, 2003 (unaudited), 2004 and 2005. Approximately 65%, 70% and 83% of the revenues were generated outside Japan, principally in the following Asian countries, Taiwan, Korea, China and Singapore for the years ended March 31, 2003 (unaudited), 2004 and 2005, respectively.

(b) Basis of Financial Statements

The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2003, and the related notes herein are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all necessary adjustments for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are consistent in all material respects with those applied in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2005. The Company maintains its books of account in conformity with financial accounting standards of Japan, and its foreign subsidiaries generally maintain their books of account in conformity with those of the countries of their domicile. The consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared in a manner and reflect certain adjustments which are necessary to conform them with U.S. GAAP. The major adjustments include those related to accounting for leases, post retirement benefits and accruals for certain expenses.

13

FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP that are furnished to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) are generally required to record adjustments to the basis of assets and liabilities for the effect of the “push down” of consideration paid for substantially all of an entity’s equity. Pushdown adjustments reflect the difference between the historical carrying amount and fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as evidenced by the consideration paid by third parties. On August 2, 2005, the SEC accepted the Company’s proposal to omit the effect of the pushdown adjustments on the basis that such adjustments would be neither appropriate nor meaningful. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments for the pushdown of consideration paid to ASC by FUJI.

(c) Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(d) Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s foreign subsidiaries use the local currency as their functional currency. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated into the reporting currency, using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate prevailing during the year. Adjustments resulting from this translation process are accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency receivables and payables are translated at the applicable current rates on the balance sheet date. All revenue and expenses associated with foreign currencies are converted at the rates of exchange prevailing when such transactions occur. The resulting exchange gains or losses are reflected in foreign currency transaction (gain) and loss, net in the consolidated statements of income.

(e) Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

(f) Notes and Trade Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Notes receivables are accepted as promissory notes in settlement for trade accounts receivable and also do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on past actual rates of bad debt losses and by examining the underlying financial conditions for receivables from companies that have or are expected to have serious problems in settlement of their payables.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(g) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The cost is determined principally on the average cost method. Elements of costs in inventories include raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead.

(h) Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Plant and equipment under capital leases are initially stated at the present value of minimum lease payments.

Depreciation on plant and equipment is calculated on the declining balance method, and depreciation on buildings is calculated on the straight-line method, over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Buildings	5 - 40 years
Machinery and equipment	3 - 12 years
Vehicles, tools, furniture and fixtures	3 - 8 years

Plant and equipment held under capital leases are amortized on the declining-balance method over the shorter of the lease period or estimated useful lives of the assets.

Total depreciation expense for the years ended March 31, 2003 (unaudited), 2004 and 2005 was ¥1,054,217 thousand, ¥1,365,243 thousand and ¥1,415,304 thousand ($13,179,104), respectively.

(i) Research and Development

Research and development are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs amounted to ¥1,513,604 thousand, ¥2,119,222 thousand and ¥2,344,032 thousand ($21,827,284) for the years ended March 31, 2003 (unaudited), 2004 and 2005, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of income.

(j) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the 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 carryforwards. 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.

(k) Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment; valuation allowances for receivables, carrying amount of inventories and deferred income tax assets, and assets and obligations related to employee benefits. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(l) Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when products are shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable.

In the normal course of business, the Company frequently acts as an intermediary or agent in executing transactions with third parties. In these arrangements, the Company determines whether to report revenue based on the “gross” amount billed to the ultimate customer for goods or services provided or in the ”net” amount received from the customer after commissions and other payments to third parties. However, the amount of gross profit and net income are not affected by whether revenue is reported on a gross or net basis. Determining whether revenue should be reported gross or net is based on an assessment of whether the Company is acting as a “principal” or an “agent” in a transaction. Accordingly, to the extent that the Company is principal in a transaction, the Company reports revenue on a gross basis and to the extent that the Company acts as an agent in a transaction, the Company reports revenue on a net basis. The determination of whether the Company is acting as a principal or an agent in a transaction involves judgment and is based on an evaluation of the terms of an arrangement.

(m) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of

The Company’s long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles 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 estimated fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

(n) Employee Retirement Benefit

The measurement of pension costs and liabilities is determined in accordance with SFAS No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions.” Under SFAS No. 87, changes in the amount of either the projected benefit obligation or plan assets resulting from actual results different from that assumed and from changes in assumptions can result in gains and losses not yet recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Amortization of an unrecognized net gain or loss is included as a component of the net periodic benefit plan cost for a year if, as of the beginning of the year, that unrecognized net gain or loss exceeds 10 percent of the greater of (1) the projected benefit obligation or (2) the fair value of that plan’s assets. In such case, the amount of amortization recognized is the resulting excess divided by the average remaining service period of active employees expected to receive benefits under the plan. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets used for pension accounting is determined based on the current expectations for future returns and actual historical long-term rate of returns on plan assets. The discount rate is determined based on the rates of return of high-quality fixed-income investments currently available and expected to be available during the period to maturity of the pension benefits.

(2) US dollar amounts

Solely for the convenience of the reader, the amounts in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2005 have been translated from Japanese yen, reporting currency, into U.S. dollars at the rate of ¥107.39 = U.S. $1.00, the exchange rate prevailing on March 31, 2005. The translation should not be construed as a representation that Japanese yen could be converted into U.S. dollars at this rate.

(a) Under a tripartite agreement among the Company, ASC and FUJI for licensing certain technology on photo-resist products, which allows the Company to manufacture and distribute the products by using technical information and patents held by ASC and FUJI, the Company is liable to pay a royalty ranging from 1% to 2% on net sales of the products to ASC and FUJI. The initial royalty agreement was terminated following FUJI’s acquisition of AMM in November 2004 and was replaced with a new agreement with similar terms between FUJI and the Company as of March 31, 2005.

(b) Under a royalty agreement with FUJI in relation to the technology license agreement on color resist products, which have colored photosensitive liquid compositions containing pigment or dye, the Company and subsidiaries are liable to pay a royalty ranging from 1% to 2% on net sales of the products. The royalty agreement is effective thorough March 29, 2008.

(c) Under a royalty agreement with ARCH in relation to the technology license agreement on polyimide products, the Company is liable to pay a royalty to ARCH on net sales of the products manufactured in its facility. In relation to the articles of the agreement for technical alliance, which the Company provides technical support on both facilities' products in the Company's sales territory, ARCH is liable to pay sales commissions to the Company on sales of the products which are directly sold to the customers by ARCH in the Company's sales territory. This agreement has been terminated following FUJI’s acquisition of AMM in November 2004.

The Company purchases raw materials used in its manufacturing operations and merchandise that it distributes from FUJI and its subsidiaries. The Company also sells its manufactured products to FUJI and its subsidiaries. Effective November 30, 2004 upon FUJI’s acquisition of AMM, all transactions with ARCH and its subsidiaries of a similar nature were terminated. The Company leases land and a portion of a building at its manufacturing facility from FUJI and a warehouse from one of FUJI’s subsidiaries. The amounts paid and received by the Company in connection with the aforementioned transactions are considered to be comparable to those amounts that would have been paid or received had such transactions been entered into on a similar basis with unrelated third parties.

Upon becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of FUJI, the Company became a part of the group finance program, which is managed by FUJI and requires the Company to obtain working capital financing and other credit enhancements from the group finance program. Although FUJI and the Company have not as of yet entered into a formal contract, the Company has access to the funding available for the group companies under the program. The following table is a summary of balances of receivables and payables as of March 31, 2004 and 2005 and transactions during the years ended March 31, 2003 (unaudited), 2004 and 2005:

(8) Income Taxes

The Company is subject to a national corporate tax of 30%, an inhabitant tax of 6.15% and a deductible business tax of 10.08%, which in the aggregate resulted in a statutory income tax rate of approximately 42% for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2004. On March 24, 2003, the Japanese Diet approved the Amendments to Local Tax Law, which reduced standard business tax rates from 9.60% to 7.68% and levied an additional business tax based on corporate size effective for fiscal years beginning on April 1, 2004. Consequently, the combined statutory tax rate has been lowered to approximately 40.6% effective for deferred tax assets and liabilities expected to be settled or realized commencing April 1, 2004 and the effect of the tax rate change of ¥1,769 thousand and ¥11,907 thousand were charged to income taxes for the years ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively. The foreign subsidiaries are subject to taxes based on income at rates from 20% to 29.7%.

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. Management considers 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 in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences.

At March 31, 2005, the maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under the guarantee was ¥306,193 thousand ($2,851,225), of which ¥277,740 thousand represents guarantee of bank loans of an affiliate company.
