Toyota is constantly engaged in upgrading, modernizing and revamping the operations of its manufacturing facilities, based on its assessment of market needs and prospects. Toyota has implemented measures to facilitate flexible responses to fluctuations in demand in each of its production operations throughout the world, such as revising takt time, operating production lines in unison and adjusting days of operation, but it has not closed any plants. In particular, with respect to the truck market in North America, which has experienced severe fluctuations in demand, Toyota temporarily suspended the operation of its truck vehicle and engine production lines for three months, and implemented initiatives to improve future competitiveness, including improvement initiatives and training. In addition, Toyota has introduced a work-sharing system in its plants in the United Kingdom and the United States. As a result, Toyota believes it would require unreasonable effort to track the exact productive capacity and the extent of utilization of each of its manufacturing facilities with a reasonable degree of accuracy. As of March 31, 2009, property, plant and equipment having a net book value of approximately ¥87,845 million was pledged as collateral securing indebtedness incurred by Toyota Motor Corporations consolidated subsidiaries. Toyota believes that there does not exist any material environmental issues that may affect the companys utilization of its assets.
