1. Review of Operations and Financial Condition

1. Review of operations

(1) Summary of the results of operations for the three months under review

For the three months ended June 30, 2008, revenues of Kubota Corporation and subsidiaries (collectively “the Company”) decreased ¥7.1 billion (2.7%), to ¥261.9 billion from the corresponding period in the prior year, due to declining overseas revenues in Internal Combustion Engine & Machinery, while the domestic revenues were almost the same level as the corresponding period in the prior year.

In the domestic market, revenues increased ¥0.1 billion (0.1%), to ¥116.7 billion from the corresponding period in the prior year. Revenues in Internal Combustion Engine & Machinery increased due to sales increase of farm equipment and engines, even though sales of construction machinery declined. Revenues in Pipes, Valves, and Industrial Castings slightly decreased from the corresponding period in the prior year. Sales of ductile iron pipes and plastic pipes increased, however sales of industrial casting decreased. Revenues in Environmental Engineering increased, however revenues in Other decreased.

In overseas markets, revenues decreased ¥7.2 billion (4.7%), to ¥145.2 billion from the corresponding period in the prior year. Revenues in Internal Combustion Engine & Machinery decreased, mainly due to declined sales of tractor. Revenues in Pipes, Valves, and Industrial Castings increased due to sales increase of ductile iron pipes and steel pipes. Sales of pumps decreased in Environmental Engineering, while sales of construction increased.

Operating income decreased ¥3.6 billion (9.5%), to ¥34.6 billion from the corresponding period in the prior year. Operating income in Internal Combustion Engine and Machinery increased in spite of the appreciation of yen against U.S. dollars. Operating income in Pipes, Valves, and Industrial Castings decreased owing to sharp price hike of raw materials, while deficit in Environmental Engineering decreased due to an increase in revenues. Operating income in Other decreased due to decreased sales of vending machines.

Income from continuing operations before income taxes, minority interests in earnings of subsidiaries, and equity in net income (loss) of affiliated companies decreased ¥5.3 billion (12.4%), to ¥37.5 billion.

Income taxes were ¥15.0 billion (representing an effective tax rate of 40.1%), and net amount of minority interests in earnings of subsidiaries and equity in net income (loss) of affiliated companies to deduct was ¥2.4 billion. As a result, net income was ¥20.0 billion, ¥4.0 billion (16.5%) lower than the corresponding period in the prior year.

(2) Review of operations by industry segment

1) Internal Combustion Engine and Machinery

Revenues in Internal Combustion Engine and Machinery were ¥196.6 billion, 3.1% lower than the corresponding period in the prior year, comprising 75.0% of consolidated revenues. Domestic revenues increased 3.2%, to ¥59.4 billion, and overseas revenues decreased 5.6%, to ¥136.9 billion. This segment comprises farm equipment, engines and construction machinery.

In the domestic market, adverse market condition remained owing to sharp price hike of fuel and fertilizer, while investment will among some farmers began to show signs of improvement affected by activities of improving food self-sufficiency rate. In this circumstance, the Company was able to increase its revenues steadily due to an increase in market share by way of the active introduction of new products and aggressive promotional sales activity. Sales of engines increased steadily due to expansion of sales to domestic manufacturers of construction and industrial machinery. On the other hand, sales of construction machinery decreased affected by inflating oil price and strict examination of requests for construction permits which was brought by the partial revision of the Building Standards Law.

In overseas markets, sales of tractors decreased. Revenues in North America decreased due to the stagnation of the housing related markets in the U.S. and the appreciation of yen against U.S. dollars. In Asia outside Japan, revenues in Thailand continued to expand largely, and revenues in Europe increased steadily. As for engine, sales remained almost the same level as the corresponding period in the prior year offset by the appreciation of yen against U.S. dollars. As for construction machinery, revenues in North America decreased due to the deterioration of the market, while revenues in Europe expanded.

2) Pipes, Valves, and Industrial Castings

Domestic revenues increased 1.3%, to ¥32.8 billion, and overseas revenues increased 16.5%, to ¥6.9 billion. This segment comprises pipes and valves (ductile iron pipes, spiral welded steel pipes, plastic pipes, and valves), and industrial castings.

In the domestic market, sales of ductile iron pipes increased from the corresponding period in the prior year. Sales of plastic pipes also increased in spite of the decline in demand. Sales of industrial castings decreased substantially due to sales decrease of ductile tunnel segment, although sales of products for steel and petrochemical industries continued to increase.

In overseas markets, sales of industrial castings such as reformer tubes for petrochemical industries were almost the same level as the corresponding period in the prior year, while sales of ductile iron pipes in the Middle East increased.

3) Environmental Engineering

Revenues in Environmental Engineering increased 19.6%, to ¥9.4 billion from the corresponding period in the prior year, comprising 3.6% of consolidated revenues. Domestic revenues increased 27.9%, to ¥8.6 billion, and overseas revenues decreased 28.4%, to ¥0.8 billion. This segment consists of environmental control plants and pumps.

In the domestic market, sales of the Water & Sewage Engineering products, the Waste Engineering products increased, however sales of pumps decreased.

This segment comprises vending machines, electronic-equipped machinery, air-conditioning equipment, construction, septic tanks and other business.

Sales of vending machine decreased in this segment due to the decreased demand for cigarettes-vending machine with the function of age-identification, for which the temporary demand was very high level in the prior year.

2. Financial condition

(1) Assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity

Total assets at the end of June 2008 decreased ¥34.3 billion (2.3%) compared with those at the end of March 2008. As for assets, inventories increased. Other investments also increased largely due to an increase in unrealized gains on securities. On the other hand, cash and cash equivalents decreased. Short- and long-term finance receivables also decreased due to a decrease in yen amount of U.S. dollar-denominated finance receivables converted by stronger yen. In addition, deferred tax liabilities increased and resulted in an increase in other long-term liabilities due to an increase in unrealized gains on securities. Interest-bearing debt and trade notes and accounts payable also decreased. Shareholders’ equity ratio was 45.1%, 0.8 percentage points higher than the prior year end.

(2) Cash flows

Net cash used in operating activities during the three months under review was ¥17.5 billion. An increase in inventories and other current assets exceeded net income.

Net cash used in investing activities was ¥5.3 billion. Although purchases of fixed assets were ¥6.8 billion, an amount of collection of finance receivables exceeded an amount of increase in finance receivables and reduced net cash used in investing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was ¥12.6 billion. An increase in debt and borrowings exceeded dividend payments and purchases of treasury stock.

As a result, including the effect of exchange rate, cash and cash equivalents at the end of June 2008 were ¥75.3 billion, a decrease of ¥13.5 billion from the prior year-end.

3. Prospect for the fiscal year under review

The forecasts of the anticipated results of operations for the year ending March 31, 2009, which were announced on May 13, 2008, remain unchanged.

The forecasts are based on the assumption of an exchange rate of ¥101=US$1
