Market Environment and Performance Summary
During the fiscal year under review, Toyota Motor Corporation transferred all housing business operations,
which constitute the core business in this segment, to Toyota Housing Corporation effective October
2010. The aim of this move is to integrate the operational organization and enhance specialization, as well
as to consolidate development, production and sales under a management structure that is flexible and
capable of quick decision making. As a result, net revenues for other business operations rose ¥24.6
billion, or 2.6% year on year, to ¥972.2 billion, whereas operating income improved to ¥35.2 billion, an
increase of ¥44.1 billion compared with the previous fiscal year.
Other business operations include the intelligent transport systems, information technology and
telecommunications, e-TOYOTA, housing, marine, and biotechnology and afforestation businesses. In all
these operations, we are fostering a workplace culture that encourages creativity and entrepreneurship.
Also, we are seeking ideas for new businesses outside the Toyota Group as another key aspect in order
to create future core businesses.

to a cell phone, as well as map renewal and user-based destination
setting services that employ telecommunications.
Toyota is developing e-TOYOTA business operations to facilitate the
integration of IT services and automobiles. We designed and
developed the GAZOO members-only automobile portal site, a three-
dimensional virtual city called METAPOLIS and other services. In the
field of telematics, we are developing G-BOOK/G-Link, an information
service for onboard terminals, with other telematics services planned
for China and other countries.
