  ¥ 38,277                          
 
                             
Other investment securities primarily include non-marketable equity securities. The fair value of other investment securities was not estimated as it was not practicable to estimate the fair value of investments and no significant events or changes that might have effected the fair value of those investments were observed.
Unrealized holding gains and losses are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until realized.
Proceeds from the sales of investment securities available for sale were ¥2 million and ¥73 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Impairment losses and net realized gains or losses from sale of investment securities available for sale during the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 amounted to losses of ¥33 million and losses of ¥65 million, respectively. Such gains and losses were included in other income (expenses), net in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
The cost of the investment securities sold was computed based on the average-cost method.

7. Contingent Liabilities
At June 30, 2010 and at March 31, 2010, Komatsu was contingently liable for discounted and transferred receivables on a recourse basis with the financial institutions of ¥4,642 million and ¥9,850 million, respectively.
Komatsu provides guarantees to third parties of loans of the employees, affiliated companies and other companies. The guarantees relating to the employees are mainly made for their housing loans. The guarantees of loans relating to the affiliated companies and other companies are made to enhance the credit of those companies.
For each guarantee provided, Komatsu would have to perform under a guarantee, if the borrower defaults on a payment within the contract terms. The contract terms are from 10 years to 30 years in the case of employees with housing loans, and from 1 year to 10 years in the case of loans relating to the affiliated companies and other companies. The maximum amount of undiscounted payments Komatsu would have had to make in the event of default was ¥93,949 million and ¥88,379 million at June 30, 2010 and at March 31, 2010, respectively. The fair value of the liabilities recognized for Komatsu’s obligations as guarantors under those guarantees at June 30, 2010 was insignificant. Certain of those guarantees were secured by collateral and insurance issued to Komatsu.
Management of Komatsu believes that losses from those contingent liabilities, if any, would not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Komatsu is involved in certain legal actions and claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. It is the opinion of management and legal counsel that such litigation and claims will be resolved without material effect on Komatsu’s financial statements.
Komatsu has business activities with customers, dealers and associates around the world and its trade receivables from such parties are well diversified to minimize concentrations of credit risks. Management does not anticipate incurring losses on its trade receivables in excess of established allowances.

9. The Fair Value of Financial Instruments
(1)  
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Time Deposits, Trade Notes and Accounts Receivable, Other Current Assets, Short-Term Debt, Trade Notes, Bills and Accounts Payables, and Other Current Liabilities
The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
(2)  
Investment Securities, Marketable Equity Securities
The fair values of investment securities available for sale for which it is practicable to estimate fair value are based on quoted market prices and are recognized on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
(3)  
Long-Term Trade Receivables, Including Current Portion
The fair values of long-term trade receivables are based on the present value of future cash flows through maturity, discounted using estimated current interest rates. The fair values computed on such a basis approximate the carrying amounts.
(4)  
Long-Term Debt, Including Current Portion
The fair values of each of the long-term debts are based on the quoted price in the most active market or the present value of future cash flows associated with each instrument discounted using the current borrowing rate for similar debt of comparable maturity.
(5)  
Derivatives
The fair values of derivative financial instruments, consisting principally of foreign exchange contracts and interest swaps agreements, are estimated by obtaining quotes from brokers and are recognized on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

17


 

The carrying amounts and the estimated fair values of the financial instruments, including financial instruments not qualifying as hedge, at June 30, 2010 and at March 31, 2010, are summarized as follows:

Limitations
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could affect the estimates.

10. Fair value measurements
Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification™ (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines that fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
  Level 1  
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
 
  Level 2  
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly
 
  Level 3  
Unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities
Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The fair value hierarchy levels of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2010 and at March 31, 2010 are as follows:

Investment securities available for sale
Marketable equity securities are classified in Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Marketable equity securities are measured using a market approach based on the quoted market prices in active markets.
Derivatives
Derivatives primarily represent foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swap agreements. The fair value of foreign exchange contracts is based on a valuation model that discounts cash flows resulting from the differential between contract rate and the market-based forward rate and is classified in Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of interest rate swap agreements is based on a valuation model that discounts cash flows based on the terms of the contract and the swap curves and is classified in Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Other
Other primarily represents loans which are measured at fair value and the retained interests in securitizations of accounts receivables. The fair value of loans is based on a valuation model based on market yield curve data and credit spread data and is classified in Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The credit spread data was obtained through use of credit default swaps for each counterparty. The fair value of retained interest in securitizations of accounts receivables is based on a valuation model using the present value of expected future cash flows using discount, prepayment and loss rates based on current market conditions and the historical performance of comparable receivables and is classified in Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

13. Business Segment Information

Segment profit excludes certain general corporate administration and finance expenses, such as costs of executive management, corporate development, corporate finance, human resources, internal audit, investor relations, legal and public relations.
