Diamond Computer Service to become a wholly owned
subsidiary of MTFG
Tokyo, August 26, 2004 The boards of directors of Mitsubishi Tokyo Financial Group, Inc. (MTFG; President: Nobuo Kuroyanagi) and Diamond Computer Service, Co. Ltd. (DCS; President: Akio Goto) today resolved to make DCS into a wholly owned subsidiary of MTFG by December 22, 2004 through a share exchange, subject to approval by DCSs shareholders and the relevant authorities. It was also decided that DCS will enter into a business alliance with Mitsubishi Research Institute, Inc. (MRI, President: Takeshi Yano). Details of these resolutions are as follows:
1. Reasons for making DCS into a wholly owned subsidiary through a share exchange
MTFG is promoting a radical restructuring of the Groups business model through a process of selection and concentration. It is therefore examining the development of a business structure that will strengthen the competitiveness of each of its businesses.
Since its establishment in 1970, DCS has developed capital and financial systems for a wide range of businesses, as well as for financial companies, and has moved into outsourcing human resource and payroll-related operations. Through its use of information technology, it enables clients to drive change through their businesses and to create new value.
Making the best use of IT is an essential part of transforming businesses. In order to respond quickly to these types of needs in its clients, MTFG aims to reorganize and optimize the organizational structure of the Groups solution businesses, aiming to broaden the solutions they provide and to stimulate value creation.
MTFG has decided to make DCS into a wholly owned subsidiary as a major first step towards this goal. At the same time, MTFG will transfer some of the IT solutions business of The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, Ltd.s corporate clients to DCS, strengthening intra-group collaboration and further clarifying DCSs central role as the head of MTFGs IT solutions business.
Moreover, DCS will form a comprehensive alliance with MRI. This alliance will create a system that can provide total support for a range of services from management consulting for systems construction, to strategic outsourcing and operations systems reconstruction. As well as strengthening its solution creation and consulting capabilities, the alliance will create a structure through which to seamlessly provide effective IT solutions aligned with the needs of its clients.
In specific terms, MRI will take an equity stake in DCS, a representative from MRI will serve as a director of DCS, and the two companies will form a wide-ranging business alliance based on these close investment and management connections. Additionally, the two companies will, in the future, collaborate on comprehensive business development that will include the purchase of additional equity stake in DCS by MRI.
By becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of MTFG and by strengthening its alliance with MRI, DCS will, as mentioned above, strive to play a role creating value for a wide range of clients as an IT solutions provider that can combine high-end consulting capabilities with cutting-edge IT development resources.
