Founding Philosophy

Corporate Mission

Page 3: Brochure

With pride and a sense of responsibility in having the toy industry as our livelihood, we at the TOMY Group aspire to see the Group grow together with society.

This poem from an anthology compiled in Japan around 1180 expresses just how

much children’s smiles and laughter are a treasure that empowers those around

them. It reminds me that the feelings parents have for their children—regardless of

social status, wealth, nationality or race, down through the ages—are all

underpinned by the sole wish for their children’s happiness. Through play, children

learn many things and acquire the fortitude to live. Wishing for healthy emotional

and physical growth of children, we at the TOMY Group are committed to

contributing to society through toys. Heading now toward our 90th anniversary, we

have set clear targets with the goal of becoming one of the top three toy companies

in the world, and have made a major shift in course in the direction of globalization.

By globalization, I mean that the toys provided by the TOMY Group and everything

that we do are intended to bring big smiles to the faces of children throughout the

world. And their smiles will spread to the adults around those children. That is why

we are building a strong sales network which will enable the TOMY Group’s

outstanding products to excite the world’s markets.

We are committed to doing everything we can to ensure that children’s toys can

be enjoyed safely and without worry. And most important of all is our determination

to make toys that, once in a child’s hands, will allow that child to play with absorbing

interest and eyes aglow. Therefore, I want TOMY to be the kind of company where

its employees, as toy makers, are filled with genuine excitement. Trust in the TOMY

brand by as many people as possible is, I believe, the sure path toward becoming a

truly global toy company.

Right now, we are in the midst of great change. And change begets great

opportunities. We will move forward toward those opportunities with a steady stride,

one step at a time, believing that the pathway will not fail to open for us as we do.

Message from the President

President & CEOTOMY Company, Ltd.

K a n t a r o T o m i y a m a

For play and sport we were born. Born for jesting and laughter, no doubt.For when I hear the voices of children playing, even my body begins to swing.

That is why we are fastidious in each and every process, from concept through to sale.

At TOMY we pursue more efficient business processes, from planning & development through production to sales, while also carrying out production with a commitment to each section’s fastidious demands. Through the collaboration of professionals in different areas and by gathering their unique strengths, we can first provide customers with toys bursting with excitement.

We are planning content and products with worldwide appeal, targeted at people of all ages, from children to adults around the world. Moreover, we are developing ideas across a wide range while drawing on feedback from the market, as we move beyond toys and expand into mini-capsule toys, apparel, video content, and other associated areas.

Through close collaboration with retail stores, we create dream-inspiring point-of-sale spaces, keeping the customer’s point of view in mind. We are working actively to develop sales channels that will expand opportunities to encounter toys, and have enhanced our after-sales services to ensure customers can enjoy the toys they choose for a long time.

While cutting costs with offshore production we have maintained the same quality as production in Japan by upgrading production facilities and processes. We are committed to safety and conduct careful inspections of each process. We have also established a stable supply system by introducing efficient logistics and information systems.

Page 6: Brochure

Even toys that stir feelings of excitement begin from small ideas.

Planning & development is the first step in drawing power from

dreams. We constantly listen to and integrate the voice of the

customer and we are vigilant to trends and new technologies and

ideas with a spirit of fun that we can refine for the enjoyment of

people of all ages, from children to adults.

We are also not limiting ourselves to physical products and are

actively developing content in an effort to build a new world of fun

beyond the boundaries of toys.

Bringing exciting products to the world through ideas and speed

T-ARTS plans, manufactures and sells a wide range of products including toys, widely popular Gatcha brand capsule toys, plush toys, accessories, amusement arcade machines and small toys that come packaged with candy.

Ideas and speed to meet user needs are T-ARTS’ new strengths.

Planning & development

Marketing

Creating hit products through new viewpoints and ideas

Incorporating voices of the market into product development

We want to deliver new surprises and enjoyment to people around the world, from children to adults. That feeling drives our day-to-day efforts to develop new products. Whether we are dealing with toys, materials or technologies, we gather a wide range of information, from current trends to future attention grabbers, and utilize it in our planning. We then push commercialization forward while repeatedly monitoring progress during development with prototypes. Moreover, we follow this plan not only in-house but also with partner companies in joint projects, ranging broadly from product planning to content development.

The greatest importance must be placed on the voice of the user to ensure that toys remain dream-inspiring products. That is why our product development efforts draw on analyses of buyers’ questionnaires as well as feedback we get directly from people at retail locations and events. Furthermore, to maximize awareness for newly developed products we fully utilize our promotional network to roll out effective promotions. Planning & development, point of purchase policies and after-sales service all play a central role in the marketing or our wide range of products.

Comprehensive hobby goods manufacturer leading the model train market

TOMY TEC offers a wide range of hobby goods including

character figures and realistic models such as TOMIX

model trains and the Diorama Collection of scale models.

TOMY TEC is a comprehensive manufacturer of hobby goods that integrates the process from planning & development through production and marketing to after-sales service of models and other hobby goods, epitomized by the TOMIX model trains that have been long-sellers for more than 30 years. With fans including parents and their children, TOMY TEC enjoys an overwhelming share of the model train market.

Driven to create exciting toys

TOMY develops and produces products on a global scale. To provide products that can be enjoyed without worry by people throughout the world, we incorporate the safety standards of each country where our products are sold. What is more, we have established our own strict, independent safety standards for our children’s products, such as requiring inspections designed to prevent accidental ingestion.

A meticulous attention to safety ensures that our toys remain fun

Children are the main users of toys. That is why it is more

important that toys can be enjoyed safely and without worry

than for them to just be fun to play with.

TOMY guarantees high product quality and safety based on

its own strict quality standards.

We are also putting efforts into streamlining the supply of

products in the market and have established a system to

get safe products reliably and quickly into the hands

of customers.

Supporting toy manufacturing with development and production technology

T2 Engineering provides total support for design, development and production, which are the stages in which toys are given life. It plays a role as the backbone for TOMY’s engineering department through such services as the groundwork for the design of samples and mass production of new products, and the provision of production technology support to factories in China and Thailand.

For enjoyable and worry-free play

Faster and more efficiently

Being able to play without worry is of utmost importance where a toy is concerned, and therefore at TOMY we pay the utmost attention to safety. Inspections to check for contamination with prohibited substances, which we previously commissioned to specialized facilities, were time consuming and costly, and so we developed our own inspection method that focuses only on the necessary items. In this way, we established a swift and reliable checking system while cutting costs. By actively following a policy of offshore production not solely in China but by setting up production facilities in Thailand and Vietnam, we achieve lower costs while maintaining product quality.

TOMY is making its logistics system and information system more efficient in order to handle myriad products and meet the diversifying needs of customers. Our new distribution base, the Ichikawa Logistics Center, began full-scale operations in May 2010 and has achieved high-quality, low-cost operations by serving as a logistics platform. We have established a supply system that gets products to customers quickly by sending the needed products at the needed time to sales locations.

High-quality, efficient logistics platform established

T2 Logistics strives to improve logistics quality and efficiency while meeting diversifying needs, working with its core base at the Ichikawa Logistics Center, where cutting-edge logistics functions have been concentrated. T2 Logistics provides services with high satisfaction that add to the earnings of our clients.

Driven to create exciting toys

Aiming to improve logistics efficiency and reduce its environmental impact, TOMY collaborated with Panasonic in road-testing a compressed natural gas powered, long-haul, heavy-duty truck developed by the Next-Generation Low-Emission Vehicle Development Project organized by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. With distribution bases located in close proximity, the two companies, joint transport effort in 2009, including use of conventional trucks, reduced CO2 emissions by 18 tons.

Childhood toy memories last a lifetime. That is why it is so

important that the customer’s first impression of the toy in the toy

store be a splendid one. And to garner the long-term loyalty of the

customer, we consider the customer’s point of view and listen

closely to what the customer has to say. We strive to create a toy

experience that is memorable and dream inspiring, where the

customer easily understands the products and can easily get help

when needed, encouraging the enjoyment of toys, every day.

In this way, we learn what consumers and retailers want and work together with retailers to develop marketing measures which make the retail aisle appealing and fun. We are expanding our sales channels beyond existing outlets such as toy stores and department stores to convenience stores, major DVD/CD rental stores, and other outlets, and proposing display arrangements that make use of the unique aspects of each business type.

Streamlining TOMY Group administration through shared services

T2 Business Service helps streamline TOMY Group administration through shared services that include areas such as customer service, systems development and operation, labor and accounting services, and the operation of online shopping sites. It also creates convenience for customers by independently operating the Coppepan online shopping site for Group merchandise.

After World War II, the company’s U.S. B-29 Bomber friction toy became a major hit in and outside Japan, blazing the way for the export of large toys. In 1953 the company began its journey toward becoming a modern enterprise by incorporating, and in 1959 it established a sales subsidiary, which had been the founder’s ardent wish since the founding. Around this time, waves of innovation in materials and technology rolled through the toy industry, ushering in a major turning point when metal was replaced with plastic and friction toys were succeeded by electric toys. Yasuta Sato founded Sato Vinyl Industies, a predessor of Takara Co., Ltd., on September 17, 1955.

From marbles, to menko (a Japanese card game), dolls and board games to transforming robots, although the toys children play with may change through the ages, the irreplaceable memories they provide are universal.

Children and adults have played with TOMY from one generation to the next and in the years ahead TOMY will continue to create memorable times and be part of the dreams of each and every one of our customers.

A part of children’s lives, all through the ages

On February 2, 1924, Eiichiro Tomiyama founded Tomiyama Toy Seisakusho, the predecessor of today’s TOMY Company, Ltd. The company manufactured numerous toy airplanes, establishing a reputation in the industry linking the Tomiyama name with toy airplanes. Later, the company expanded its business through one industry-leading initiative after another, including the establishment of the first factory in the toy industry with an assembly line system and the creation of a toy research department.

Tomiyama a lso cont r ibuted greatly to the modernization of the toy industry through its determined efforts to improve the standing of toy manufacturers.

At a time when half of the toys it produced were exported, Tomy was quick to open representative offices in New York and Europe with the aim of making inroads directly. In Japan, the company established production bases in succession in Tokyo and Mibu, set up a development center—an unprecedented move in the industry—and took other steps to create a system uncompromisingly committed to good manufacturing.

Takara grew into a comprehensive toy manufacturer, propelled in its business expansion by hit products that made use of the company’s vinyl processing technology.

After commissioning production in Hong Kong, Tomy opened its first factory in Singapore, making it one of the early companies to embark on overseas production. Masanari Tomiyama was appointed the second president and CEO in 1974, the company’s 50th anniversary. Tomy and Takara both released numerous long-selling products that remain popular to this day.

Tomy established the Handicap Toy Laboratory in 1980 and popularized efforts in the industry to create barrier-free toys. In 1985, the Plaza Accord threw the company into a sudden management crisis, and drastic reforms were implemented, including the closure of factories in Japan. The following year, Kantaro Tomiyama was appointed the third president and CEO in a shakeup of the management structure.

Takara went public in 1984 and steadily grew, being listed on the Second Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 1986. In 1988, the company switched from a focus on its core business of toys to diversified operations, rolling out products aimed at a wide range of fields.

Tomy prepared for regeneration with a new structure, shifting from pushing products out to the market to incorporating the needs of the market into products. With this, it announced a business diversification strategy focused on the three core areas of toys, general goods and multimedia products. It rolled out a stream of new measures, including the attempt to enter the character business and a business alliance with Hasbro, Inc. in the U.S. In 1997 Tomy went public and in 1999 it was listed on the Second Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

From the second half of the 1980s, Takara continued to expand its Hearty Series for enriching people’s lives and released products based on TV characters that became hits. With this aggressive product expansion, the company was listed on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 1991.

Tomy concluded a comprehensive licensing agreement with Walt Disney International Japan Inc. in 2000, the same year its stock was transferred to the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. In pursuit of further growth, Tomy aimed for progress as a group, including the establishment of a development subsidiary and the founding of a new company for the planning and selling of plush toys and a company for utilizing new technology.

At Takara, Keita Satoh was appointed president in 2000 and advocated expansion of the toy business. The company aggressively moved forward with the rollout of products that broke the toy mold and leveraged its planning and marketing prowess to continue offering a succession of popular products.

In 2006, Takara and Tomy merged, becoming TOMY Company, Ltd., (known as TAKARATOMY in Japanese) with the aim of maximizing their respective strengths and becoming the world’s top toy manufacturer.

2000s

The proliferation of games that can be played alone

Since 2010, TOMY has been accelerating its international expansion. It introduced an overseas version of Tomica in Europe and North America. It began marketing Metal Fight Beyblade toys worldwide in conjunction with the introduction of the new TV anime (Actual name of toys and anime differs by region). The toys are enjoying so much enthusiasm that an international competition was held in South Korea in summer 2010. In 2011, TOMY acquired U.S. toy manufacturer RC2, establishing a platform for global expansion. The entire TOMY Group has started to move into action together, aiming to be a truly global toy company.

Page 18: Brochure

TOMY’s social mission is to continue providing dreams through toys

equally to children and adults living in varied environments and

under diverse conditions. Universalizing toys, improving the work-

life balance, taking part in a range of citizens movements . . . as a

member of society, TOMY is committed to reliably taking what it can

do now and what must be done now and turning them one by one

into reality with a view toward creating a prosperous future.

We refer to toys that children with visual or hearing disabilities can enjoy equally with children without disabilities as “accessible toys.” For example, would children with vision disabilities be able to recognize the On and Off of a switch more easily if we simply included a small bump on the On side of the switch? This is the kind of idea from which our efforts with accessible toys started.

The beginning of accessible toys goes back almost 30 years. The originals were toys developed exclusively for disabled children by TOMY’s Handicap Toy Laboratory. However, after launch it became apparent that the market was small and that the effort would generate losses even with a hit product. And so, rather than make toys exclusively for disabled children, we decided to make accessible toys that all children could enjoy by devising a few changes to ordinary toys, such as adding small bumps. Thus the current concept came into being. Maintaining constant awareness of this accessible concept right from the development stage enables us to provide opportunities for everyone to play equally.

TOMY did not keep the expertise in this area to itself, but instead led the effort to popularize the accessible concept as an initiative within the entire industry. In recognition of its efforts, TOMY won the Cabinet Office’s Award for Excellence in Barrier-Free and Universal Design in 2009. Moreover, the Tomica Oshaberi A-I-U-E-O (“Tomica Talking Japanese ABCs”) created out of our accessible toy efforts won the Grand Prize in the Accessible Toy Category and the Award for Excellence in the Educational Toy Category at the 2010 Japan Toy Awards. This was followed in 2011

with the Tomica Preschool Series, Yubi-Con R/C car, which won the Grand Prize in the Accessible Toy Category and the Award for Excellence in the Innovative Toy Category. The qualities combining outstanding features as an educational toy with consideration for children with vision disabilities was thus highly recognized. Going forward, TOMY will continue working with the toy industry to promote the manufacture of toys that allow children with and without disabilities to play and grow together.

What can we do?What should we do?For the dreams of the future.

From “exclusive” to “accessible”Creating toys that expand circles of friendship

So that we can all play together

Toys are a ubiquitous presence in the lives of children and change to suit their stage of development. TOMY wants to use toys to convey to children, who represent the next generation, a mindset of environmental stewardship. With that in mind, the TOMY Group started the Eco Toy initiative. If children know that the toys they ordinarily play with are in fact environmentally friendly, that could lead to them think, “What kinds of things are environmentally friendly and what can I do that is good for the environment?” Providing a trigger for them to take action is what the TOMY Group’s Eco Toy initiative is all about. As part of this initiative, TOMY created a system for certifying as “Eco Toys” those products that satisfy one or more eco standards established by TOMY for the lifecycle of toys, including how toys are made and the ways in which they are played. Examples include the Tecology Tomica Series of toy cars that light up from electricity generated when the toys are pushed and the solar-powered Nohohon. Many other toys

also have resource or energy saving features. In June 2011, TOMY started displaying its Eco Toy mark on packages to communicate the initiative more clearly to consumers. The Eco Toy initiative has only just begun. In the years ahead, we will grow the TOMY Group’s Eco Toy movement together with the growth of children.

Finding new perspectives on environmental problems from everyday landscapes and communicating them to the public is the objective of the environmental photo contest organized by oil company Showa Shell Sekiyu, in the hope that companies and individuals will think about the environment and take action, thereby creating new social movements. Agreeing with this aim, TOMY became a special sponsor of the environmental photo contest. By continually undertaking this kind of initiative, TOMY will provide the wider society with opportunities for individuals to think about the environment and take action.

With a high rate of women exiting the work force due to childbirth and long working hours for men of child-rearing age, it is an on-going struggle in Japan to achieve a good balance between childbirth/child rearing and work. As a toy company with a mission to create dreams for children, TOMY in particular should make an active effort to support child rearing and the work-life balance so that its employees can work with enthusiasm. With that view in mind, TOMY endorsed the Tokyo metropolitan government’s emergency measures to overcome the declining birthrate. TOMY was then selected as a project promoting business. We aim to create a pioneering work environment in society through this project.

The photo contest creates an opportunity for people—both the photographers and the people who see their work—to think about environmental problems by having contestants submit two photos as a group: one photo of scenery they would like to preserve forever (marked “Good”) and one of scenery they would like to improve immediately (marked “Bad”). In 2010, there were more than 6,000 submissions. An amount of ¥100 per entry form is donated to an environmental protection organization.
