Representative: Shiro Kondo President and CEO Contact: Masakuni Kutsuwada, General Manager of PR Department +81-3-6278-5228 NOTICE CONCERNING REVISION OF FINANCIAL RESULTS FORECAST AND DIVIDENDS FORECAST Ricoh Company, Ltd. ("Ricoh") revised its consolidated financial results forecast and its dividends forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2009 that were announced on October 28, 2008, based on its recent bussiness performance. 1.

(2) Basis for revision Ricoh revised the forecast of consolidated financial results for FY2009 downward due to factors such as slowdown in demand in domestic and overseas caused by worldwide recession, and ongoing appreciation of the yen more than our assumption. 2. Revision of dividends forecast (1) Details of the revised dividends forecast Dividends per share (Yen) - ------------------------------------------------------------------- The end of Record date second quarter Year-end Total - ------------------------------------------------------------------- Previous forecast (Announced on October 28, 2008) -- 19.00 37.00 New forecast -- 18.00 36.00 Performance in FY2009 18.00 -- -- Performance in FY2008 16.00 17.00 33.00 (2) Basis for revision Ricoh considers continuous reinforcement in returning profits to shareholders to be one of its basic policies concerning distribution of profits, and dividends payout ratio is being taken into account upon distribution. As the forecast of consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2009 has been revised as mentioned above, Ricoh has also revised the forecast of dividends amount per share to 18.00 yen for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2009, which is the same amount as the second quarter ended September 30, 2008. * Ricoh bases the forecast estimates for FY2009 above upon information currently available to management, which involves risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
