(1)

The Company has historically disclosed maintenance costs as part of the “Research and development and maintenance” line item within operating expenses in the consolidated statement of income. Starting fiscal year 2005, maintenance costs are included in cost of sales, therefore, prior years’ figures have been restated to reflect such amendment. In addition, customer support expenses, which were disclosed as a component of operating expenses, through December 31, 2004, have also been included in cost of sales starting fiscal year ended 2005, therefore, prior years’ figures have been restated to reflect such amendment. Refer to Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere in this Annual Report for additional information.

(2)	We effected a one-to-two stock split on May 18, 2001. The share and per share amounts for each of the year ended December 31, 2001 have been restated to reflect that stock split.

C. Reasons for the Offer and Use of Proceeds.

Not applicable

D. Risk Factors.

The occurrence of any of the following risks could hurt our business, financial condition or results of operations. In such case, the trading price of our shares and the ADSs could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. Other risks and uncertainties not now known to us or that we think are immaterial may also impair our business.

MAJOR SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE VENDORS MAY INCORPORATE ANTI-VIRUS PROTECTION IN THEIR PRODUCT OFFERINGS, WHICH COULD RENDER OUR PRODUCTS OBSOLETE OR UNMARKETABLE.

Major vendors of operating system software and other software such as firewall or e-mail software or computer hardware may decide to enhance or bundle their products with their other products to include anti-virus functions. These companies may offer anti-virus protection as a standard feature in their products, at minimal or no additional cost to customers. This could render our products obsolete or unmarketable, particularly if anti-virus products offered by these vendors were comparable or superior to our products. In addition, even if these vendors’ anti-virus products offered fewer functions than our products, or were less effective in detecting and cleaning virus-infected files, customers could still choose them over our products due to lower cost or for any other reasons.

Microsoft Corp., a major operating system vendor, has acquired some security vendors such as GeCAD Software Srl., an anti-virus software vendor in Romania. Microsoft Corp. announced that they would provide anti-virus products or services such as named “Windows OneCare™” or “Client Protection” in 2006. At this time, we do not know the details of those services or products, but if in fact Microsoft launches those products or services, and/or, if anti-virus functions were to be included in its operating system products, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

- 3 -

BECAUSE WE GENERATE SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF OUR SALES FROM A SINGLE PRODUCT LINE, WE ARE VULNERABLE TO DECREASED DEMAND FOR SUCH PRODUCTS.

Unlike software companies with diversified product lines, we derive substantially all of our net sales from licensing and selling anti-virus software products. Although we have begun to offer more comprehensive network and internet security and management software and services, we expect anti-virus products to continue to account for the largest portion of our net sales for the foreseeable future. If the demand for, or the prices of, anti-virus products drop as a result of competition, technological changes or other factors such as lower growth or a contraction in the worldwide anti-virus software market, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

DETERIORATION IN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH SOFTBANK BB CORP. COULD RESULT IN A DECREASE IN SALES OF OUR PRODUCTS.

We depend on our relationship with SOFTBANK BB (formerly SOFTBANK COMMERCE CORP.), which has played an instrumental role in the development of our business in Japan. SOFTBANK BB also has close relationships with many resellers and systems integrators through which we sell our anti-virus software to corporate end users in Japan. An adverse change in our relationship with SOFTBANK BB would result in decreased sales to SOFTBANK BB and could disrupt our relationship with many resellers of our products. This could make it difficult for us to market our products in Japan. Sales to SOFTBANK BB totaled approximately (Yen)9.2 billion, or 19.1%, of our net sales in fiscal 2003, approximately (Yen)10.4 billion, or 16.8%, of our net sales in fiscal 2004 and approximately (Yen)10.6 billion, or 14.5%, of our net sales in fiscal 2005. Because of our dependence on SOFTBANK BB, the price of shares and ADSs could fall as a result of adverse events affecting SOFTBANK BB, even if the events do not relate directly to us.

OUR PRODUCTS MAY BECOME OBSOLETE BECAUSE RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE REGULARLY OCCURS IN THE ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE MARKET.

The anti-virus software market is characterized by:

•

rapid technological change;

•

the proliferation of new and changing computer viruses;

•

frequent product introductions and updates; and

•

changing customer needs.

These characteristics of our market create significant risks and uncertainties for our business success. For example, our competitors might introduce anti-virus products that are technologically superior to our products. Additionally, new software operating system, network system or anti-virus software industry standards could emerge. Emerging trends in these systems and standards currently include applications distributed over the Internet and the use of a Web browser to access client-server systems. Our existing products might be incompatible with some or all of such standards. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could materially suffer unless we are able to respond quickly and effectively to these developments.

OUR HARDWARE-BASED PRODUCTS FACE MANUFACTURING AND INVENTORY RISKS.

We rely on a small number of third parties to manufacture some of our hardware-based products, such as the Trend Micro Network VirusWall described in Item 4.B. We expect our reliance on third-party manufacturers to become more important as the number of our hardware-based products increases. Reliance on third-party manufacturers involves a number of risks, including a lack of control over the manufacturing process and the potential absence or unavailability of adequate capacity. If any of our third-party manufacturers cannot or will not manufacture our products in required volumes in compliance with environmental and other regulations in the markets we serve, on a cost-effective basis, in a timely manner, or at all, we will have to secure additional manufacturing capacity. The unexpected loss of any of our manufacturers could disrupt our business. Furthermore, our hardware-based products contain critical components supplied by a single or a limited number of third parties. Any significant shortage of components or the failure of the third-party supplier to maintain or enhance these products could lead to cancellation of customer orders or delays in the placement of orders and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operation.

- 4 -

WE MAY NOT GENERATE EXPECTED RESULTS IN STRATEGIC ALLIANCES

Because we are mainly focusing our business on the field of anti-virus software and do not offer other security products such as firewalls, we actively pursue strategic alliances with other companies that allow us to provide customers with integrated or other new products and services derived from the alliances. In fiscal year 2004, we began to provide a third party URL filtering solution and have signed contracts with Cisco Systems to integrate network worm and virus outbreak prevention services with Cisco’s products and services. To launch and provide such products and services, we may invest substantial cash and other resources in product developments, marketing promotions and support and maintenance activities. However we may not earn revenue successfully from alliances despite our efforts, and such alliance may be terminated or dissolved by various causes before generating revenue.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO INCREASE OUR MARKET SHARE IN THE U.S. AND EUROPEAN MARKETS BECAUSE OUR COMPETITORS ARE MORE ESTABLISHED THAN WE ARE IN THESE MARKETS.

We believe that our share of the anti-virus software market in the U.S. and Europe is significantly smaller relative to the market shares of our principal competitors, despite the growth of our sales in these markets in fiscal 2004 and 2005. Because our competitors are already well-established in these key markets and have greater financial and other resources and brand recognition, we may not be able to compete effectively for market share. If this happens, we may not be able to increase sales or our market share in these markets, which could materially hurt the prospects for growth in our business.

Some of our major competitors have the following advantages over us in the U.S. and European markets:

•

greater name recognition;

•

more diversified product lines;

•

larger customer bases; and

•

significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources.

As a result, as compared to us, our competitors may be able to:

•

better withstand downturns in the anti-virus software market and in the computer software market in general;

•

adapt more quickly to new or emerging technologies or changes in customer requirements; or

•

more effectively and profitably market, sell and support their products.

WE MAY SUFFER A LOSS OF SALES AND MARKET SHARE IN OUR CORE JAPANSE MARKET IF OUR COMPETITORS ACHIEVE SUCCESS IN JAPAN.

Our major competitors, McAfee, Inc. and Symantec Corporation, are active in the Japanese anti-virus software market and have allocated significant resources to achieve success in the Japanese anti-virus software market. Although these competitors currently have smaller shares of the Japanese market than us, each has significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we do. Additionally, competition in our core Japanese market could intensify in the future if other competitors emerge. As a result of our competitors’ efforts, we may not be able to maintain our current leading market position in Japan in the future. Also, in order to respond effectively to increased competition, we may be required to devote more of our product development, marketing and other resources to the Japanese market, which could limit our ability to grow in other markets. A material loss of sales and market share in Japan as a result of our competitors’ success could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

BECAUSE WE MAY ACQUIRE COMPANIES TO GROW OUR BUSINESS, FUTURE ACQUISITIONS MAY REDUCE OUR EARNINGS AND RESULT IN INCREASED COSTS IN OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS.

In a rapidly changing industry, we occasionally review acquisition opportunities. Accordingly, we may seek to expand our business through acquisitions. Unlike some of our major competitors, we have limited experience in acquiring existing businesses. Future acquisitions could result in numerous risks and uncertainties, including:

•

our inability to retain customers, suppliers and other important business relationships of an acquired business;

•

difficulties in integrating an acquired company into Trend Micro, including the acquired company’s operations, personnel, products and information systems;

•

diversion of our management’s attention from other business concerns; and

•

adverse effects on our results of operations from acquisition-related charges, impairment of goodwill and purchased technology and possible recognition of impairment charge.

If we make such an acquisition using our stock, our current shareholders’ ownership interests will be diluted. Any of these factors could materially hurt our business, financial condition and results of operations.

- 5 -

For example, in 2000, we acquired ipTrend to start a new business selling a Linux based remotely managed server appliance solution to small and medium sized companies. However, ipTrend performed poorly and was liquidated in December 2001. Due to the liquidation of ipTrend, (Yen) 2.3 billion was booked as goodwill write-off in 2001.

IF HACKERS GAIN UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OUR SYSTEMS, WE COULD SUFFER DISRUPTIONS IN OUR BUSINESS AND LONG-TERM DAMAGE TO OUR REPUTATION.

We may be more susceptible to problems caused by hackers than other software companies. As an anti-virus software company that delivers virus protection products over the Internet, hackers specifically target us in order to cause us to transmit computer viruses or interrupt the delivery of our anti-virus software monitoring and security services over the internet which could result in further interruptions. We could suffer substantial disruptions in our business and material damage to our reputation which could in turn result in a significant loss of our customers and other important business relationships. We could also incur costs for public relations efforts following attacks by hackers. Hacker activities could also force us to incur substantial costs to fix technical problems or result in hackers gaining access to our proprietary information.

WE FACE NEW RISKS RELATED TO OUR ANTI-SPAM AND ANTI-SPYWARE SOFTWARE PRODUCTS.

Our anti-spam and anti-spyware products may falsely identify emails or programs as unwanted “spam” or “potentially unwanted programs,” or alternatively fail to properly identify unwanted emails or programs, particularly as “spam” emails or spyware are often designed to circumvent anti-spam or spyware products. Parties whose emails or programs are blocked by our products may seek redress against us for labeling them as “spammers” or spyware, or for interfering with their business. In addition, false identification of emails or programs as unwanted “spam” or “potentially unwanted programs” may reduce the adoption of these products.

WE MUST EFFECTIVELY MANAGE OUR GROWTH.

Our business has grown rapidly. This growth has placed, and any future growth would continue to place, a significant strain on our limited personnel, management and other resources. Our ability to manage any future growth in our business will require us to:

•

attract, train, retain, motivate and manage new employees successfully;

•

effectively integrate new employees into our operations; and

•

continue to improve our operational, financial, management and information systems and controls.

If we continue to grow, our management systems currently in place may be inadequate or we may not be able to effectively manage our growth. In particular, we may be unable to:

•

provide effective customer service;

•

develop and deliver products in a timely manner;

•

implement effective financial reporting and control systems; and

•

exploit new market opportunities and effectively respond to competitive pressures.

WE SELL OUR PRODUCTS THROUGH INTERMEDIARIES WHO MAY NOT VIGOROUSLY MARKET OUR PRODUCTS, OR MAY RETURN OUR PRODUCTS.

We market substantially all of our products to end users through intermediaries, including distributors, resellers and value-added resellers. Our distributors sell other products that are complementary to, or compete with, our products. While we encourage our distributors to focus on our products, these distributors may give greater priority to products of other suppliers, including competitors’. They may also return the products to us under certain circumstances.

OUR CUSTOMERS MAY CANCEL OR DELAY THEIR PURCHASES OF OUR PRODUCTS, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

Our products may be considered to be capital purchases by certain enterprise customers. Capital purchases are often uncertain and, therefore, are canceled or delayed if the customer experiences a downturn in its business prospects or as a result of unfavorable economic conditions. Any cancellation or delay could adversely affect our results of operations.

- 6 -

WEAK FINANCIAL CONDITIONS OF SOME OF OUR DISTRIBUTORS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR OPERATING RESULTS.

Some of our distributors are experiencing financial difficulties worldwide, which may adversely impact our collection of accounts receivable. We regularly review the collectibility and creditworthiness of our distributors to determine an appropriate allowance for doubtful receivables. Our uncollectible accounts could exceed our current or future allowance for doubtful receivables, which would adversely impact our operating results.

OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS MAY SUFFER IF WE ARE REQUIRED TO PAY SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF PENALTY PAYMENTS PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF OUR SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENTS.

We guarantee a certain quality of product support to our customers through our service level agreements. Pursuant to the terms of these agreements, under some circumstances, we are required to make penalty payments to our customers. For example, if we fail to provide our customers a virus pattern file within two hours of our receipt of a virus from the customer, the terms of the agreement require us to make a penalty payment to the dissatisfied customer which may amount up to 100% of the initial sale price. We have established reserves based on our assumptions and estimates. However, our assumptions and estimates may be wrong and our actual total penalty payments could materially exceed our reserves and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

WE RELY HEAVILY ON OUR MANAGEMENT AND TECHNICAL PERSONNEL, WHO MAY NOT REMAIN WITH US IN THE FUTURE.

We rely, and will continue to rely, on a number of key technical and management employees, including our Chief Executive Officer, Eva Yi-Fen Chen. While we require our employees to sign employment agreements, our employees are generally not otherwise subject to noncompetition covenants. If any of our key employees leave, our business, results of operations and financial condition could suffer.

FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR QUARTERLY FINANCIAL RESULTS COULD CAUSE THE MARKET PRICE FOR OUR SHARES AND OUR ADSs TO BE VOLATILE.

We believe that our quarterly financial results may fluctuate in ways that do not reflect the long-term trend of our future financial performance. It is likely that in some future quarterly periods, our operating results may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In this event, the price of our shares and our ADSs could fall.

Factors which could cause our quarterly financial results to fluctuate include:

•

timing of sales of our products and services due to customers’ budgetary constraints, seasonal buying patterns and our promotional activities;

•

new product introductions by our competitors;

•

significant marketing campaigns, research and development efforts, employee hiring, and other capital expenditures by us to drive the growth of our business;

•

changes in customer needs for anti-virus software; and

•

changes in economic conditions in our major markets.

WEAKNESS IN THE JAPANESE ECONOMY MAY HURT OUR BUSINESS PERFORMANCE BECAUSE JAPAN IS OUR LARGEST MARKET.

While our sales in the US and Europe have increased in recent years, we remain significantly dependent on the Japanese market. Net sales in Japan accounted for approximately 42% of our net sales in fiscal 2003, approximately 41% in fiscal 2004 and approximately 40% in fiscal 2005. In the past three years, the Japanese economy has performed poorly due to a number of factors, including weak consumer spending and lower capital investment by Japanese companies. We believe the sluggish Japanese economy has hindered growth in our net sales during most of the last three fiscal years, although it has shown signs of recovering during the last several months. Because of our dependence on the Japanese market, any deterioration in the condition of the Japanese economy could negatively impact our net sales.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE FLUCTUATIONS COULD LOWER OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS BECAUSE WE EARN REVENUES DENOMINATED IN SEVERAL DIFFERENT CURRENCIES.

Our reporting currency is the Japanese yen and the functional currency of each of our subsidiaries is the currency of the country in which the subsidiary is domiciled. However, a significant portion of our revenues and operating expenses is denominated in currencies other than the Japanese yen, primarily the US dollar, euro and the New Taiwan dollar. As a result, appreciation or depreciation in the value of other currencies as compared to the Japanese yen could result in material transaction or translation gains or losses which could reduce our operating results. These negative effects from currency fluctuations could become more significant if we are successful in increasing our sales in markets outside of Japan. We do not currently engage in currency hedging activities.

BECAUSE OUR BUSINESS DEPENDS SIGNIFICANTLY ON INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, INFRINGEMENT OF OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COULD HURT OUR BUSINESS.

Our success depends upon the development of proprietary software technology. We rely on a combination of contractual rights and patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws to establish and protect proprietary rights in our software. If we are unable to establish and protect these rights, our competitors may be able to use our intellectual property to compete against us. This could limit our growth and hurt our business. At present, our U.S. consolidated subsidiary holds seven issued US patents and our Taiwan consolidated subsidiary holds four issued U.S. patents. It is possible that no additional patents will be issued to us or any of our subsidiaries. In addition, our issued patents may not prevent other companies from competing with us. We also enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees and license agreements with our customers, and limit access to our proprietary information and its distribution. However, we cannot guarantee that any of these measures will discourage others from misappropriating our technology or independently developing similar technology.

PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS ASSERTED AGAINST US IN THE FUTURE COULD HURT OUR BUSINESS.

Our products are designed to protect customers’ network systems and personal computers from damage caused by computer viruses. As a result, if a customer suffers damage from viruses, the customer could sue us on product liability or related grounds, claim damages for data loss or make other claims. Additionally, as viruses are constantly evolving, purchasers of our software products must regularly update the software they have purchased from us with virus protection files that we make available for download from our website. Should we fail to properly test these virus protection files and distribute a defective file, these files could cause damage to the personal computers of our customers who have downloaded a defective file. For example, a file that we distributed on April 23, 2005 for an approximately 90 minute-period caused the computers of those updating with the file to slow and, in some cases, shut down. Cases of our files damaging the computers or our customers could lead to significant damage to our reputation and customers could sue on product liability or related grounds. Furthermore, starting in 2001, we began selling hardware devices which could give rise to a higher incidence of product liability claims than we have up until now experienced. Our license agreements typically contain provisions, such as disclaimers of warranty and limitations of liability, which seek to limit our exposure to certain types of product liability claims. However, in some jurisdictions these provisions may not be enforceable on statutory, public policy or other grounds. We currently do not carry product liability insurance covering claims arising in the United States. Damage to our reputation or successful product liability or related claims brought against us could materially harm our business.

OUR BUSINESS FACES THE RISK OF INTERRUPTION FROM POWER SHORTAGES, EARTHQUAKES, OUTBREAK OF BIOLOGICAL VIRUSES AND OTHER HAZARDS.

We face a number of potential business interruption risks that are beyond our control. The State of California experienced intermittent power shortages in 2000, sharp increases in the cost of energy and even interruptions of service to some business customers. If power shortages continue to be a problem, our business may be materially adversely affected. Additionally, we may experience natural disasters that could interrupt our business.

Tokyo, where our corporate headquarter is located, is near a major earthquake fault. The impact of a major earthquake on our facilities, infrastructure and overall operations is not known. There is no guarantee that an earthquake would not seriously disturb our entire business operations. We are largely uninsured for losses and business disruptions caused by an earthquake and other natural disasters.

In addition, many of the key countries and regions in which we operate have sustained negative economic impact from events such as the continued fear of future terrorist attacks and the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS. Prolonged continuation of these adverse factors may hurt our results of operations and financial condition.

WE MAY HAVE TO CONSTRAIN OUR BUSINESS ACTIVITIES TO AVOID BEING DEEMED AN INVESTMENT COMPANY UNDER THE US INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940.

In general, a company which is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities, may be deemed to be an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940. We do not believe that we are an investment company as defined under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940. However, if we were to be deemed an investment company, we would be prohibited from issuing our securities in the United States and may have to terminate our U.S. listing or other sponsorship promoting a U.S. trading market for our issued securities. In order to avoid these prohibitions, we may be forced to forego otherwise attractive business opportunities, potentially limiting our growth and our profitability.

BECAUSE OF THE INFLUENCE OF OUR PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS, OUR OTHER SHAREHOLDERS MAY BE UNABLE TO INFLUENCE OUR BUSINESS.

Our principal shareholders, including major shareholders who beneficially own more than 5% of the issued shares of our common stock and directors, beneficially owned approximately 34.4% of our outstanding shares as of December 31, 2005. These shareholders, if they act together, would be able to significantly influence all matters requiring approval by our shareholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers or other business combination transactions. Our principal shareholders may have strategic or other interests that conflict with the interests of our other shareholders. As a result, the concentration in our shareholdings may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of Trend Micro, which could result in the loss of a significant financial gain to our shareholders.

OUR STOCK PRICE IS VOLATILE, AND INVESTORS BUYING THE SHARES OR ADSs MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RESELL THEM AT OR ABOVE THEIR PURCHASE PRICE.

Shares of our common stock are traded on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which is the principal market for our shares. Recently, the U.S. and Japanese securities markets have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. The market prices of securities of high-tech companies, and internet companies in particular, have been especially volatile. Since trading in our shares commenced on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on August 17, 2000, our stock price has fluctuated between a low of (Yen) 1,440 and a high of (Yen) 9,005. Since trading in our ADSs commenced on the Nasdaq National Market on July 8, 1999, the price of our ADSs has fluctuated between a low of $12.16 and a high of $159.38. The closing price on the Tokyo Stock Exchange for our stock on May 31, 2006 was (Yen)3,840, and the closing price on the Nasdaq National Market for our ADSs on May 31, 2006 was $35.00 per ADS. The market price of our shares and ADSs is likely to fluctuate in the future.

BECAUSE OF DAILY PRICE RANGE LIMITATIONS UNDER JAPANESE STOCK EXCHANGE RULES, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SELL YOUR SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK AT A PARTICULAR PRICE ON ANY PARTICULAR TRADING DAY, OR AT ALL.

Stock prices on Japanese stock exchanges are determined on a real-time basis by the equilibrium between bids and offers. These exchanges are order-driven markets without specialists or market makers to guide price formation. To prevent excessive volatility, these exchange set daily upward and downward price fluctuation limits for each stock, based on the previous day’s closing price. Although transactions may continue at the upward or downward limit price if the limit price is reached on a particular trading day, no transactions may take place outside these limits. Consequently, an investor wishing to sell at a price above or below the relevant daily limit may not be able to sell his or her shares at such price on a particular trading day, or at all.

THE RIGHTS OF SMALL SHAREHOLDERS ARE LIMITED UNDER THE JAPANESE UNIT SHARE SYSTEM.

Our Articles of Incorporation provide that 500 shares of our common stock constitute one “unit.” The Japanese Company Law (as defined in Item 10.B) restricts the rights of shares that do not constitute whole units. Holders of shares constituting less than one unit do not have the right to vote. Each ADS offered in the offering represents the right to receive one share. A holder who owns less than 500 ADSs will indirectly own less than a whole unit. Under the deposit agreement governing the rights of ADS holders, in order to withdraw any shares, an ADS holder must surrender ADRs evidencing 500 ADSs or a multiple of 500 ADSs. Each ADR will bear a legend to that effect. Under the unit share system, holders of less than a unit have the right to require us to purchase their shares. Holders of ADSs that represent other than multiples of whole units cannot withdraw the underlying shares representing less than one unit. They will, therefore, be unable, as a practical matter, to:

•

exercise the right to require us to purchase the underlying shares, or

- 9 -

•

receive cash settlement in lieu of withdrawal.

As result, as a holder of ADSs, you will not be able to access the Japanese markets through the withdrawal mechanism to sell shares in lots of less than one unit.

AS A HOLDER OF ADSs, YOU WILL HAVE FEWER RIGHTS THAN A SHAREHOLDER HAS AND YOU WILL HAVE TO ACT THROUGH THE DEPOSITARY TO EXERCISE THOSE RIGHTS.

The rights of shareholders under Japanese law to take actions, including voting their shares, receiving dividends and distributions, bringing derivative actions, examining our accounting books and records and exercising appraisal rights are available only to holders of record. Because the depositary, through its custodian agents, is the record holder of the shares underlying the ADSs, only the depositary can exercise those rights in connection with the deposited shares. The depositary will make efforts to vote the shares underlying your ADSs as instructed by you and will pay you the dividends and distributions collected from us. However, in your capacity as an ADS holder, you will not be able to bring a derivative action, examine the accounting books and our records or exercise appraisal rights through the depositary.

RIGHTS OF SHAREHOLDERS UNDER JAPANESE LAW MAY BE MORE LIMITED THAN UNDER THE LAW OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS.

Our Articles of Incorporation, our Board of Directors’ regulations and the Japanese Company Law govern our corporate affairs. Legal principles relating to such matters as the validity of corporate procedures, directors’ and officers’ fiduciary duties and shareholders’ rights may be different from those that would apply if we were a non-Japanese company. For example, under the Japanese Company Law, only holders of 3% or more of the issued and outstanding shares are entitled to examine our accounting books and records. Shareholders’ rights under Japanese law may not be as extensive as shareholders’ rights under the laws of other countries. You may have more difficulty in asserting your rights as a shareholder than you would as a shareholder of a corporation organized in another jurisdiction. In addition, Japanese courts may not be willing to enforce liabilities against us in actions brought in Japan which are based upon the securities laws of the United States or any U.S. state.

Item 4. Information on the Company.

A. History and Development of the Company.

We develop, market and support antivirus and Internet content security software and services. Our legal name in Japan is Trend Micro Kabushiki Kaisha and Trend Micro Incorporated in the United States. Our commercial name in both Japan and the United States is Trend Micro.

We currently have more than 2,900 employees and are represented more than 30 countries.

B. Business Overview.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

A computer virus is a program—a piece of executable code—that has the unique ability to replicate. Like biological viruses, computer viruses can spread quickly and are often difficult to eradicate. With email now used as an essential business communication tool, viruses are spreading faster than ever. Viruses attached to email messages can infect an entire enterprise in a matter of minutes, which may cost companies millions of dollars annually in lost productivity and clean-up expenses. Mixed-threat attacks like NIMDA and MSBlast, threaten computer systems at multiple levels.

Today the threats on the network such as computer viruses, spyware, spam and phishing are not the nature that can be predicted beforehand and treated with all possible measures. It seems there is now a requirement for enterprises and individuals to deploy security measures against new network threats and crimes which can cause monetary damages and disable networks around the world.

To enhance our capability against new threats evolving day by day, we acquired InterMute Inc. which provides anti-spyware technologies and Kelkea Inc. which provides IP filtering and reputation services in 2005.

In response to the virus threat above, the antivirus software market has grown significantly in the past few years and expected to continue to grow in the future.

According to International Data Corporation, an independent research organization, in December 2005, the anti-virus industry, which we belong to, will increase from $3.7 billion in 2004 to $7.3 billion in 2009 and is estimated to expand at a compound annual growth rate of around 15% from 2005 to 2009.

Our vision is to create “A world safe for exchanging digital information”. We offer solutions to prevent the invasion of viruses and other malicious content into corporate networks, small and medium business networks and individual PCs.

Network systems including the Internet are an integral part of corporate activities and life at home. However, the methods viruses use to access computers have become more elaborate and malicious, causing serious problems for users. Furthermore, problems are arising where spyware, spam and inappropriate Web use diminish the functionality and efficiency of network and Internet use.

Against this backdrop, the needs of corporate networks and individual users for security vendors have expanded and intensified. Our role extends beyond merely developing and selling security products. We also provide services to offer a more effective security solution. Through this business model, we are contributing to the development of a safe digital society around the world.

Our products and services have evolved with the development of the antivirus software market. Initially, our sales of antivirus software products consisted primarily of sales of our desktop programs, such as PC-cillin/Virus Buster, which were introduced in Japan in 1991. To meet increased demand for network-based products as companies shifted from stand-alone desktop PCs to client-server enterprise networks in the early 1990s, we introduced LANprotect, our first server application, in 1993. To address the increased risk of virus infection for enterprise networks resulting from widespread use of the Internet, we introduced InterScan VirusWall in 1996 to provide real-time scanning at the Internet gateway, the point where data enters the network from the Internet. In 1998, we introduced Trend Virus Control System, the forerunner of Trend Micro Control Manager (described below), which enabled network-wide antivirus software to monitor, update and manage from a central management console. Since 1998 we have continued to develop our Internet security solutions, and in 2002 we unveiled Trend Micro Enterprise Protection Strategy, which is described below.

Trend Micro Enterprise Protection Strategy

Trend Micro Enterprise Protection Strategy, our threat and outbreak management strategy to prevent computer viruses, is implemented using centralized management of an integrated security suite and outbreak prevention appliance. This solution is supported by real-time, threat-specific knowledge from TrendLabs, Trend Micro’s global network of security experts.

We help and enable IT managers to proactively manage the outbreak lifecycle. This lifecycle consists of four phases—vulnerability prevention, outbreak prevention, virus response and assessment and restoration.

- 11 -

Vulnerability Prevention

In this phase, vulnerability assessment tools help enforce security policies, block noncompliant devices from network access and isolate specific threat-related vulnerabilities to pre-empt attacks. Trend Micro Vulnerability Assessment is a key product component of this phase. Centrally managed by Trend Micro Control Manager, a centralized outbreak management console, Vulnerability Assessment integrates with other Trend Micro products and services to identify vulnerabilities in the network. Vulnerability Assessment determines risk ratings to alert IT managers of specific viruses correlated with system vulnerabilities and identifies patches needed to prevent exploits. Leveraging data from Vulnerability Assessment, Trend Micro Network VirusWall (described below) assists IT managers to selectively perform the following actions:

•

Isolate unpatched machines for Microsoft operating system vulnerabilities before or at the onset of an outbreak.

•

Quarantine infected LAN segments to stop virus propagation.

•

Check devices for the latest pattern files, scan engine, and antivirus software from major antivirus vendors, to control network access of noncompliant machines.

Outbreak Prevention

The outbreak prevention phase is the critical period when a threat has been identified, but a pattern file or patch has not yet been deployed. Without sufficient information, IT managers struggle not only to identify protective actions but also to deploy them effectively across the organization. Trend Micro Outbreak Prevention Services include outbreak prevention policies, which are strategic recommendations to manage the various methods in attacking viruses and to assist IT managers in deflecting, isolating, and stopping virus outbreaks. Through Trend Micro Control Manager, outbreak prevention policies can be deployed manually or automatically to block any combination of file extensions, executables, IP addresses, ports, instant message channels, and file transfer protocols. IT managers can use outbreak prevention policies to perform the following actions:

•

Keep viruses from propagating and impeding network traffic;

•

Automatically activate Trend Micro Damage Cleanup Services (described below) to ease administrative burden; and

•

Generate detailed reports for threat analyses.

Virus Response

The virus response phase of the outbreak lifecycle occurs during the deployment of a pattern file, network signature, or patch. This reactive phase is the single focus of most antivirus products. In contrast, Trend Micro Control Manager coordinates virus response with outbreak prevention policies to enable proactive outbreak lifecycle management from a central console. Our scanning engines provide IT managers with the following benefits:

•

Comprehensive protection with virus scanning and detection at both the network layer and the application layer;

•

Increased accuracy, scanning performance and virus detection with scanning engines that search for viruses based on the identified threat; and

•

A guarantee (Trend Micro Service Level Agreement) that new virus pattern files will be delivered within two hours of virus case submission or Trend Micro will pay a certain penalty fee depending on the terms of the agreement entered into with the customer.

Assessment and Restoration

The assessment and restoration phase of the outbreak management lifecycle is the period after a pattern file, network signature, or patch is deployed and the virus has been contained. Cleaning the network of virus remnants and restoring systems is tedious and costly because most organizations perform these tasks manually. In contrast, Trend Micro Damage Cleanup Services automate clean-up and restoration to mitigate administrative cost and burden. Centrally managed through Trend Micro Control Manager, Damage Cleanup Services feature agent-less remote deployment, allowing IT managers to assess, clean, and restore infected PCs and servers located in remote locations without end-user intervention. Damage Cleanup Services are designed to result in cost-effective clean-up by helping IT managers do the following:

•

Prevent re-infection by removing memory resident worms and Trojans (a type of virus that can conceal itself) and their effects, such as unwanted registry entries and viral files;

- 12 -

•

Reduce administrative burden via coordination with outbreak prevention policies; and

•

Perform consistent clean up aided by detailed reports from Trend Micro Control Manager.

Distribution of a Defective Virus Pattern File in April 2005

On April 23,2005, Trend Micro published pattern file 2.594.00 with the intent to protect customers from a new type of BOT virus that could cause an infected PC to become a launching point for spam. Given the number of variants of this threat and what they are designed to do, we believe they have the potential to cause great damage to users and puts at risk the safety and integrity of the networks through which they might spread. Unfortunately, pattern file 2.594.00, which employed a new, generic unpacking and heuristic script technology designed to detect and eliminate these new types of BOT viruses and their variants, generated some performance conflict with computers running on Microsoft Windows XP and certain other operating systems. As a result, this caused the impacted machines to experience high CPU consumption and subsequent system instability.

For any customers experiencing instability, Trend Micro has provided a set of solutions which can be found under the Support section of Trend Micro’s website. Additionally, Trend Micro has extended support hours especially to help those customers who had this special intersection of circumstances and were affected by this issue. Trend Micro continued testing in order to fully understand initial assessments and fix the issue. We found that the pattern file caused performance issues on systems with Scan Engine 7.5 and above while scanning a particular type of executable file found in certain versions of operating system service packs. Owing to a large number of variants discovered by our researchers of a particular BOT threat (each of which used a different compression algorithm), Trend Micro enhanced the decompression ability of its pattern file with a view to prevent further variants of this BOT from infecting customers. However, within pattern file 2.594.00, TrendLabs included support for 3 additional heuristic patterns, including UltraProtect decompression support, which is used by several WORM_RBOT variants. Due to an isolated anomaly in the engineering, development and pattern release process, the UltraProtect decompression may in certain circumstances cause some systems to experience high CPU power consumption, which can lead to system instability when this specific file type is scanned using pattern file 2.594.00.

Through its analysis, Trend Micro has determined that while pattern file 2.594.00 was designed to prevent several new variants of a fairly new type of BOT threat from infecting its customers, the issues with pattern file 2.594.00 were caused by how the testing was conducted for this type of solution. Therefore, we are taking the following steps to ensure that future instances of this issue do not occur.

•

We have invested in additional resources to immediately improve our development, review, testing and monitoring processes to ensure efficient execution of Trend Micro virus pattern signatures.

•

We are developing an automated method within the tool used to create virus pattern signatures. This automation would help to determine the potential for possible future instances of high CPU utilization caused by our pattern files.

•

We are enhancing the Scan Engine to include a self-monitoring mechanism.

We are increasing the scope and support of our testing coverage and of our processes to prevent reoccurrence of such issues.

Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects.

A. Operating Results.

You should read the following discussion together with the financial statements and notes included in this annual report. Additionally, the following discussion includes forward-looking statements about our business and future performance. These forward-looking statements are based on our current assumptions and beliefs in light of the information currently available to us, and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties.

RESTATEMENTS

In response to a comment from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, as disclosed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, we have restated the statements of income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 in order to reclassify maintenance costs previously reported as part of the research and development and maintenance costs within operating expenses and customer support expenses also previously included in operating expenses, into cost of sales.

OVERVIEW

Strategy

We develop, market and support anti-virus software and management solutions for corporate computer systems and desktop personal computers. In the anti-virus industry there are two U.S. competitors having a higher global market share than we. These companies have strong brand-name recognition and sales forces especially outside Japan because they have longer histories in the industry. They are also developing businesses supported by management resources larger than ours, including work forces and financial strength. Under such circumstances, we aim for further growth by developing original solutions which respond to the evolution of computer viruses faster than our competitors by concentrating our management resources, by improving our superiority in products and services with additional improvements in the specifications and performance of our products from the view point of customers, and by strengthening customers loyalty with our marketing development which is conscious of customer attributes characterized by the differences in purchasing behavior.

- 23 -

To enhance our competency, we acquired Intermute Inc. which provides anti-spyware technologies and Kelkea Inc. which provides IP filtering and reputation services in 2005.

While we specialize in the antivirus area, we have formed several alliances with dominant vendors in areas other than antivirus solutions. In 2004, we announced affiliation with Cisco Systems, the world’s largest network equipment vendor. As a result of the strategic alliance, we have put our antivirus solutions on the market as internal functions of Cisco’s routers, switches and security appliance products from 2005. We believe that this sort of strategic alliance plays an important role in our sales strategy since we expect combined products to be more competitive and our and our partners’ sales channels to complement each other.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements, which we discuss under “Results of Operations” below. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our most critical accounting estimates include: judgment for revenue recognition which impacts our net sales; estimate of allowance for sales returns and allowance for doubtful accounts, which impacts our sales return provision and doubtful accounts provision; recognition and measurement of income tax, current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, which impacts our tax provision; valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets which impacts our goodwill and impairment loss. We discuss these policies further, as well as the estimates and judgments involved, below.

Revenue Recognition

We account for the licensing of software in accordance with Statement Of Position (SOP) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”, released by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The application of SOP 97-2 requires judgment, including whether a software arrangement includes multiple elements, and if so, whether vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value exists for those elements. End users receive certain elements of our products over a period of time. These elements include post-contract customer support services which includes virus pattern updates, unspecified product version updates, and telephone and online technical support, the fair value of which is recognized ratably over the service period. We allocate revenue to post-contract customer support services based on the fair value of the post-contract customer support services, which is determined based on separate renewal sales to customers. Changes to the elements in a software arrangement, the ability to identify VSOE for those elements and the fair value of the respective elements could materially impact the amount of earned and unearned revenue.

Allowance for Sales Returns and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We primarily sell retail packages through intermediaries. After sale of a retail package, we may approve certain returns from intermediaries or end-users. Therefore, we must make estimates of potential future product returns related to current period product revenue. We analyze historical returns, current economic trends, and changes in customer demand and acceptance of our products when evaluating the adequacy of the sales returns. Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the sales returns in any accounting period. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of our revenue for any period if management made different judgments or utilized different estimates. Similarly, we must make estimates of the uncollectability of our accounts receivables. We specifically analyze accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The balance of allowance for doubtful accounts and sales returns were (Yen)282 million ($2,392 thousand) and (Yen)422 million ($3,580 thousand) as of December 31, 2005, respectively. Our accounts receivable balance was (Yen)19,199 million ($162,702 thousand), net of allowance for doubtful accounts and sales returns of (Yen)704 million ($5,972 thousand), as of December 31, 2005.

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves our estimating our actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as deferred revenue, for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. To the extent we believe that recovery is not likely, we must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase this allowance in a period, we must include an expense within the tax provision in the statement of operations.

- 24 -

Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We have recorded this valuation allowance of (Yen)21 million ($177 thousand) as of December 31, 2005, due to uncertainties related to our ability to utilize some of our deferred tax assets, primarily consisting of certain net operating losses carried forward. The valuation allowance is based on our estimates of taxable income by jurisdiction in which we operate and the period over which our deferred tax assets will be recoverable. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods we may need to establish an additional valuation allowance which could materially impact our financial position and results of operations.

The net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2005 was (Yen)8,761 million ($74,243 thousand), net of a valuation allowance of (Yen)21 million ($177 thousand).

Valuation of Goodwill and other intangible assets

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price of the acquired business over the fair value of its net tangible and identifiable intangible assets. Other intangible assets consist primarily of existing technology purchased by business acquisition. In determining the purchase price of acquired business and existing technology, management is required to make significant estimates of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, especially with respect intangible assets. These estimates are based on the information obtained from the management of the acquired companies to and include the cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the future, the weighted average cost of capital, and cost savings expected to be derived from acquiring asset. These estimates are inherently uncertain and unpredictable.

The balance of goodwill and existing technology were (Yen)2,130 million ($18,053 thousand) and (Yen)615 million ($5,212 thousand) as of December 31, 2005, respectively. We assess the impairment of goodwill annually, or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We assess the impairment of other intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the sum of the future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. Such impairment loss would be measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and its fair value. The estimate of cash flow is based on, among other things, certain assumptions about expected future operating performance and an appropriate discount rate determined by our management. Our estimates of discounted cash flows may differ from actual cash flows due to economic conditions, changes to the business model, or changes in operating performance. If management made different estimates, material differences may result in write-downs of goodwill and intangible assets, which would be reflected by charges to our operating results for any period presented.

EFFECT ON OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FROM DISTRIBUTION OF A DEFECTIVE VIRUS PATTERN FILE IN APRIL 2005

As described under in Item 4.B. - Distribution of a Defective Virus Pattern File in April 2005, we distributed a defective virus file pattern that resulted in damage to the computers of our customers who downloaded the file. As described in Item 4.B., we took steps to resolve our customers’ problems and ensure that a similar problem would not recur. We have incurred (Yen) 991 million ($8,398 thousand) related to this issue for the year ended December 31, 2005 as cost of sales and operating expenses. There is some possibility of incurring further cost, however Management expects additional cost will be insignificant.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our consolidated financial statements are denominated in Japanese yen. All asset and liability accounts of our foreign subsidiaries are translated into Japanese yen at the year-end rates of exchange. We translate all income and expense accounts at rates of exchange that approximate those prevailing at the time of the transactions and accumulate the resulting adjustments as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. We translate foreign currency-denominated receivables and payables into Japanese yen at year-end rates of exchange and recognize or expense the resulting translation gains or losses on a current basis. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Japanese yen and other currencies, principally the U.S. dollar, Euro and the New Taiwan dollar, will affect the translation of the financial results of our foreign subsidiaries into Japanese yen for purposes of our consolidated financial results, and will also affect the Japanese yen value of any amounts we receive from our subsidiaries.

Our Revenue Structure

Our revenue is derived primarily from product revenue, which includes software product license and post-contract customer support (PCS) services. Product revenue includes limited sales of our products to other companies for inclusion in their products. Revenue from our post-contract customer support services, which includes virus pattern updates, product version updates, telephone and online technical support, is deferred and recognized ratably over the service period. We allocate revenue to post-contract customer support services based on the fair value of the post-contract customer support services, which are determined based on separate sales of renewals to customers. Upon expiration of the initial term, corporate end users can renew the post-contract customer support services annually by paying a fee generally equal to one-half of the initial license fee in Japan and between 20% and 50% of the initial license fee in the United States and elsewhere, depending on the country. For retail purchasers of PC-cillin/Virus Buster, the license fee includes post-contract customer support services for the initial one-year term only. In order to receive post-contract customer support services after the initial term, these retail purchasers must pay a percentage, generally less than one-half, of the original license fee.

We generally recognize revenues from software product licenses when:

•

persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

•

the product has been delivered;

•

the fee is fixed and determinable; and

•

collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

In general, we record sales revenues attributable to post-contract customer support services as deferred revenue and recognize such revenues ratably over the license term. The percentage of the license fee which is deferred varies depending on the location of the Trend Micro entity making the sale, as well as the product sold.

In our operations, maintenance costs and customer support expenses, which were previously included in operating expenses, are disclosed as cost of sales from the year ended December 31, 2005 and prior year figures have been reclassified. Thus, there are three lines under cost of sales; Amortization of capitalized software and Materials, Maintenance and Customer support. Amortization of capitalized software and Materials consists of outbound shipping and handling costs, costs of producing manuals and packaging, and amortization of software development costs. Maintenance costs represent the costs incurred for not only simple program-bug-fixing but also minor version-ups in the product sustain stage of out anti-virus software product development cycle. Customer support costs represent the costs incurred in connection with Virus Pattern File development and update activities as along with other customer support activities such as trouble shooting, emerging virus information gathering and product defect information gathering.

We operate our business in five geographic regions: Japan, Europe, North America, Asia Pacific and Latin America. Japan accounted for around 40% and, together with Europe and North America, over 80% of our net sales for each of our last three fiscal years.

*	Post –contract customer support fees

All Suite products were included in another products until 2004, however for the amounts importance, all Suite products are separately disclosed from 2005. In addition, prior figures have been reclassified.

Net sales of Server based products in 2005 decreased 1% compared with 2004 by decreased sales of Trend Micro ServerProtect. This decrease is due to the increase of the conversion to Suite products.

Within the personal computer product category, net sales of anti-virus software, including retail package sales of Trend Micro PC-cillin/Virus Buster series, increased from approximately (Yen)16,890 million in 2004 to approximately (Yen)19,714 million ($167,072 thousand) in 2005. Retail package sales of personal computer software increased due primarily to increased sales of our products, including the Virus Buster 2006 which we released in November 2005, in the Japanese market.

Net sales of internet-based products in 2005 increased 10% from 2004, reflecting mainly increased sales of InterScan Web Security Suite and InterScan Messaging Security Suite products in 2005 compared with 2004.

Net sales of All Suite products in 2005 increased 32% from 2004, reflecting mainly sales of Client/Server Suite products in 2005 compared with 2004.

Net sales of post-contract customer support fees and royalties in 2005 decreased 22% from 2004 due primarily to reclassification of the products into other revenue categories. If net sales of post-contract customer support fees and royalties in 2004 had been categorized as that in 2005 as mentioned above, this line item would have increased 71% in 2005 compared with 2004.

- 27 -

Net sales of post-contract customer support fees and royalties in 2004 decreased 49% from 2003. Until 2003, the renewal sales were categorized as post-contract customer support fees and royalties in the United Sates, because their accounting system could not separate the renewal sales amount by product. Because of the improvement of the system, the renewal sales amount can now be categorized by product. For descriptive purpose to compare 2004 to 2003, if such renewal sales amount had been categorized as post-contract customer support fees and royalties in 2004 in the United States, this line item would have increased 6.2% in 2004 compared with 2003.

Net sales in 2004 increased 29% compared with 2003. The increase was due primarily to increased sales of All Suite products such as NeaTSuite or Client/Server Suite.

Net sales of internet-based products in 2004 increased 55% from 2003, reflecting mainly increased sales of InterScan products in 2004 compared with 2003. If renewal sales amount had been categorized as post-contract customer support fees and royalties in 2004 in the United States as mentioned above, this line item would have increased 38% in 2004 compared with 2003.

Net sales of Server based products in 2004 decreased 9% compared with 2003 by decreased sales of Trend Micro ServerProtect. This decrease is due to the increase of the conversion to Suite products. If renewal sales amount had been categorized as post-contract customer support fees and royalties in 2004 in the United States as mentioned above, this line item would have decreased 13% in 2004 compared with 2003.

Within the personal computer product category, net sales of anti-virus software, including retail package sales of Trend Micro PC-cillin/Virus Buster series, increased from approximately (Yen) 13,507 million in 2003 to approximately (Yen) 16,890 million in 2004. Retail package sales of personal computer software increased due primarily to increased sales of our products, including the Virus Buster 2005 which we released in October 2004, in the Japanese market. If renewal sales amount had been categorized as post-contract customer support fees and royalties in 2004 in the United States as mentioned above, this line item would have decreased 23% in 2004 compared with 2003.

Compared to 2004, the number of employees in our customer support department increased by 98 in Asia Pacific. It is due to an expansion of the customer support centers in the Philippines to meet the satisfaction of our global customers. The expansion was for enterprise products such as outbreak prevention services and damage cleanup services based on the Trend Micro Enterprise Strategy described Item 4.B of this annual report, and the recent expansion of the services provided to customers by our customer support department. Additionally, due to the trouble caused by the virus pattern file we distributed on April 23, 2005, it also includes costs to assist for reconstruction and to settle the problem for our customers.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses consist primarily of advertising, selling commissions, payroll and related expenses of sales and marketing department. Selling expenses increased (Yen)4,935 million, or 31%, in 2005 compared with 2004, and increased (Yen) 649 million, or 4%, in 2004 compared with 2003.

The increase in 2005 compared with 2004 was due primarily to the increase in the number of employees in the sales and marketing department. Additionally, due to the trouble caused by the virus pattern file we distributed on April 23, 2005, it also includes costs to assist for reconstruction and to settle the problem for our customers.

The increase in 2004 compared with 2003 was due primarily to the increase in the number of employees in the sales and marketing department. Additionally, in 2004, there was an increase in sales promotions over 2003. “Channel development activity” was stepped up in 2004 particularly in the United States and Europe. This activity is mainly focused on seminars to boost the channel sales. And in 2004, we conducted major marketing activities in Japan to boost the sales of “Virus Buster 2005”, which we released in the fourth quarter of the year.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses for software engineers who develop our anti-virus software products. Research and development expenses increased (Yen)1,798 million, or 69%, in 2005 compared with 2004, and increased (Yen) 872 million, or 51%, in 2004 compared with 2003. All costs relating to research and development to establish the technological feasibility of our software products are expensed as incurred. In our software development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of all significant testing for the original English language version of the product. We produce local language versions of our anti-virus software, such as Japanese and Chinese, from the English language version by adding local language functions. Localization costs, which include direct labor and overhead costs, are capitalized and amortized over the estimated life of the product in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86.

During 2005, we acquired InterMute Inc. which provides anti-spyware technologies and Kelkea Inc. which provides IP filtering Reputation services, and we were engaged in integration of InterMute and Kelkea acquisition. In addition, we engaged in new appliance development, and we invested in the China and Taiwan Development Center. These new activities resulted in an increase to both the expense and the number of employees in research and development departments.

General and administrative expenses for 2005 increased (Yen) 2,847 million, compared with 2004. The number of employees at general and administrative department increased 40 in Asia Pacific, compared to 2004. The increase was mainly due to the expansion of the information service function in the Philippines.

Interest expense in 2003, 2004 and 2005 resulted mainly from our bonds with warrants issued to provide stock options to our directors and employees. Interest expense decreased during the period, generally corresponding to the progress of the redemption of the bonds.

We recognized a gain on sales of marketable securities in 2005. The gain primarily resulted from the redemption of the bonds, and investment trusts denominated in foreign currencies.

We recognized a gain on sales of marketable securities in 2004. The gain primarily resulted from the redemption of the bonds, and investment trusts denominated in foreign currencies.

We recognized a loss on sales of marketable securities in 2003. The loss primarily resulted from the disposition of certain of our investments in bonds in 2003.

Income Taxes

Our statutory tax rate was 42.1% in 2003 and 2004 and 41.0% in 2005. Our effective tax rate was 39.8% in 2003, 39.9% in 2004 and 36.1% in 2005. A decrease in 2005 compared with 2004 was mainly due to tax credit relating to tax law applied to both parent company and foreign subsidiaries in 2005, which in turn lowered our effective tax rate.

Net deferred tax assets gradually increased from (Yen) 6,701 million in 2003 to (Yen) 7,921 million in 2004 and to (Yen) 8,761 million ($74,243 thousand) in 2005. The main reason this was for an increase of the portion derived from deferred revenue from (Yen) 4,344 million in 2003 to (Yen) 5,638 million in 2004 and to (Yen) 6,742 million ($57,135 thousand) in 2005.

Japan

Net sales in 2005 increased 16% compared with 2004, and net sales in 2004 increased 27% compared with 2003. The sales from corporate users contributed to an increase in sales growth in year 2005. Especially, the sales of “Trend Micro Premium Support (Premium Support Program)” which provides proactive, personalized service and the sales of “Network VirusWall” which is an outbreak prevention appliance drove the growth in sales from corporate users. Although the revenue of “Virus Buster” series products experienced negative growth in the second quarter due to the trouble caused by the virus pattern file we distributed on April 23, 2005, it has been sharply recovered in the fourth quarter. The annual results of the products contributed to a stable growth in year 2005. The results came from the strong demand of consumers for “Virus Buster 2006” released in that quarter. The stronger growth rate in net sales in year 2004 from 2003 was mainly due to strong demand for “Virus Buster” series products including “Virus Buster 2005” released in the fourth quarter of year 2004.

- 31 -

The growth rate of operating income was 12%, which was lower than that of net sales in 2005. It is because of the additional cost incurred for the incident of virus pattern file. Cost of sales/Operating expense for year 2005 and 2004, which were 37% and 35%, respectively, of net sales for those years.

North America

Net sales in 2005 increased 30% compared with 2004 and net sales in 2004 increased 23% compared with 2003. The increase in sales growth for year 2005 was a result of several factors. In the Enterprise market, the company successfully refined both its messaging to the customer and suite of products to better meet customer-perceived needs. In the Small and Mid-size market, increased sales were a result of growing brand recognition, a greater push by national reseller partners to sell Trend product and more emphasis on proactive sales and support. Finally, in the Consumer market (where the highest growth was experienced) sales were positively impacted by new relationships with, and sales through, high profile retail channel partners such as Best Buy. Sales in the Consumer market were primarily driven by PC-cillin sales, which grew 69% in 2005.

During 2005, there were two acquisitions in the United States. The first was Intermute, of Boston, MA, which brought a complimentary new anti-spyware product to the Trend portfolio. This acquisition also included the talents of approximately 30 employees with specialization in anti-spyware technologies. The second acquisition was for Kelkea of San Jose, CA. This acquisition was for another complimentary and unique technology in the anti-spam space, which enables service provider partners to block spam at the gateway. This acquisition included approximately 15 employees specialized in anti-spam technologies.

The growth rate of operating income in 2005 over 2004 (39%) was higher than sales growth due to a slower growth rate in overall expenses. Cost of sales and operating expenses were incurred at 32% of net sales in 2005 versus 37% in 2004. Cost of sales for 2005 was lower than 2004 due to lower negotiated royalty fees for technologies incorporated into several trend products. The slower growth rate in operating expenses is attributable to lower and better-targeted marketing expenses and only slight growth of general and administrative expenses, due to increased efficiencies. The cost of sales and operating expense for year 2004 and 2003 increased by approximately (Yen) 782 million due to extended sales force and activities in line with sales growth.

Europe, Middle East and Africa

Net sales in 2005 were (Yen) 18,379 million; this was a 12% increase on the previous year. 2005 saw the launch of 2 major initiatives in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) – a local sales reorganization and the global rollout of customer segmentation. The sales reorganization was aimed at categorizing markets according to their level of maturity, focusing Sales teams and marketing programs on key areas in these markets. The German market represented the largest proportion of EMEA sales in 2005 as it did in 2004. In addition, as was the case in 2004, revenue from the small business market contributed most to overall EMEA sales in 2005. The small business market also recorded the greatest revenue growth in the region.

Cost of sales and operating expenses in 2005 increased by 20% compared with 2004. Major investments in the sales, marketing and customer segmentation reorganization are reflected in the proportionally higher operational costs in 2005. Costs of sales increased to reflect the introduction of packaged sales in the small and medium business market. The region recorded an operating income contribution of 56% in 2005 compared with 59% in 2004.

Asia Pacific

Net sales in 2005 increased 25% compared with 2004, and net sales in 2004 increased 31% compared with 2003. Australia, Southeast Asia and South Asia are the major contributors to this segment’s net sales growth from 2004 to 2005. The major increase contributed primarily from Neat Suite, Gateway products, PC-cillin, and the premium support services.

The growth rate of operating income was higher than that of net sales in 2005. The growth rate of cost of sales and operating expense in 2005 was 10% compared to 2004, lower than 2004’s increase of 17% compared with 2003. Cost of sales and operating expense increased by approximately (Yen) 448 million from (Yen) 4,626 million in 2004 to (Yen) 5,074 million in 2005. Cost of Sales increase is mainly due to an increase in introduction of more new hardware-related product sales such as NVW2500 and NVW300, whilst increase in operating expense is mainly due to our sales and marketing activities designed to increase demand for our products in the market.

Latin America

Net sales in 2005 decreased 4% compared with 2004 due to the review of government businesses; and net sales in 2004 increased 37% compared with 2003. The regional strategy, as half of the sales resources were focused on the Cisco alliance and in pushing new products into the existing customer missing to hearing customer needs. During 2005 almost no effort was placed in obtaining new customers. Net sales increase in 2004 was due because of the sales of new products or new versions such as Spam Prevention Service, Network VirusWall, and products focusing on small and medium sized business.

Corporate

Operating loss of the Corporate segment in 2005 have increased by (Yen) 5,049 million, or 47% compared with 2004. This balance is a combination of increases in research and development, corporate sales and marketing, corporate support and general and administrative departments, offset by amortization of software development costs.

Increases in research and development staff in Taiwan and China, and office expansion of China Development Center caused a majority increase in research and development and maintenance cost, totaling of (Yen) 1,208 million. The initial increase in research and development staff was mainly due to increase projects in appliance products and new products targeted for different market segments.

Corporate sales and marketing expense in 2005 increased by (Yen) 2,010 million or 82% compared with 2004. These increase primarily include cost incurred for the increase of sales people, who focus on customer from Consumer/SOHO, Small and Mid-size and Enterprise market. Besides, we have introduced a strategic alliance partner team to work with Cisco on the outbreak prevention solutions. Also, increase marketing expense on the Small and Mid-size market advertising spending, promotion of the Small and Mid-size market anti-spyware product and product launched.

Corporate support cost in 2005 increased by 33% compared with 2004. This increases include hiring new staff in Philippine to strengthen our post-sales support for retail customers, premium support services and customer support for Consumer/SOHO, Small and Mid-size and Enterprise market.

General and administrative expenses in 2005 increased by approximately (Yen) 1,719 million or 78% compared with previous year. It derived mainly from the investment on Information Technology infrastructure and amortization of software, deployment of Customer Relationship Management system and legal cost related to certain patent infringement case. During 2005, we have invested on Customer Relationship Management system to develop a more efficient sales process for the company, and this project will continue in 2006.

Stock Options

In April 2002, we granted warrants to attract and retain key employees. In addition, in February, May and November 2003, in April and October 2004, and in July and December 2005, the stock options with stock acquisition rights were granted. The warrants granted in 2002 generally commenced vesting one year after the grant date. The stock options with stock acquisition rights granted in 2003, 2004 and 2005 generally commenced or will generally commence vesting 9 months or one year after the grant date. Using methodology under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, we have not recorded any non-cash compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005. Had such non-cash compensation expense for our warrants and stock options in 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 been determined based on the fair value of such warrants or options at the grant dates, as prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, our pro forma net income and net income per share would have been as follows:


	Years ended December 31,
	2003		2004		2005		2005
	(restated)(1)		(restated)(1)
	(In millions of yen and in thousands of U.S. dollars, except per share data)
Pro forma net income	(Yen)	5,583	(Yen)	12,555	(Yen)	15,076	$	127,761
Pro forma net income per share:
Basic	(Yen)	42.32	(Yen)	95.41	(Yen)	112.93	$	0.96
Diluted		42.22		93.79		111.30		0.94

See Note 2 (1) to the consolidated financial statements.

- 33 -

Pro forma stock-based compensation expense has been revised to reflect the corrections in the amortization period, expected life term of the option and volatilities used to determine compensation expense. This correction impacts the pro forma net income and net income per share previously presented for fiscal 2003 and 2004 .

These figures are significantly different than those determined under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.25. Those differences result mainly from the current price of the shares and their expected volatility. The impact of the pro forma value of the warrants or options computed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 has not affected our reported earnings or cash flows. The impact has been measured for disclosure purposes only and is entirely non-cash in nature. See “Significant accounting policies” and note 14 to the financial statements in included in this annual report.

Employee Benefit plans

The parent company has an unfunded retirement allowance plan covering substantially all of its employees who meet eligibility requirements under such plan, and some subsidiaries have defined benefit / defined contribution pension plans. All of the details are described more fully in “Note 14: Employee benefit plans”. The Company’s total costs for defined contribution pension plan and defined benefit pension plan in 2005 are (Yen) 130 million and (Yen) 230 million, respectively. The aggregated balance at December 31, 2005 of the Company’s projected benefit obligation and plan assets are, (Yen) 1,260 million and (Yen) 168 million, respectively. We believe our risk exposure to variation from estimates made for these plans is immaterial.

Effect of Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.123 “Share-Based Payment” This new SFAS No.123 focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that starts after June 15, 2005. We intend to adopt the provisions on Financial Accounting Standards 123(R) effective January 1, 2006. The Company’s pro forma net income and net income per share for the year ended December 31, 2005 based on the fair values of the stock options with Stock acquisition rights, which were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model in accordance with the original SFAS No.123, are disclosed in Note 2 (1) “Significant accounting policies - Stock-based compensation.”

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”. SFAS 154, which replaces APB Opinion No. 20 “Accounting Changes”, and SFAS No. 3 “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements — An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 28”, applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections. APB 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of change a cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle while SFAS 154 requires retrospective application, or the latest practicable date, for reporting a change in accounting principle and the reporting of a correction of an error. SFAS 154 enhances the consistency of financial information between periods. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources.

Our short-term capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including

•

market acceptance of our products,

•

the resources we devote to developing, marketing, selling and supporting our products, and

•

the extent to which we are able to establish relationships with strategic partners in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere.

Our short-term capital resources are mainly derived from net cash provided by operating activities. We believe that our current cash balance, net cash provided by operating activities and existing credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next 12 months.

In the medium and long term, we may make acquisitions and strategic investments in order to grow our business. Insofar as we are not able to satisfy our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, we may seek to raise additional capital through equity or debt financing. However, we cannot be certain that such funding will be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

- 34 -

As of December 31, 2005, we had cash and cash equivalents, time deposits and marketable securities of approximately (Yen) 83,443 million ($707,146 thousand), up from approximately (Yen) 68,580 million as of December 31, 2004. The increase was primarily due to increased net income and marketable securities. Our marketable securities consist only of debt securities with high credit ratings and mutual funds which consist of debt securities with high credit ratings in accordance with our investment policy. As of December 31, 2005, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately (Yen) 59,613 million ($ 505,191 thousand), which mainly consisted of (Yen) 36,402 million ($ 308,493 thousand) in Japanese yen, (Yen) 5,083 million ($ 43,074 thousand) in U.S. dollar and (Yen) 11,719 million ($ 99,312 thousand) in Euro. As of December 31, 2004, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately (Yen) 52,908 million, which mainly consisted of (Yen) 33,476 million in Japanese yen, (Yen) 4,022 million in U.S. dollars and (Yen) 10,905 million in Euro.

As of December 31, 2005, we had deferred revenue under both current liabilities and long-term liabilities of approximately (Yen) 35,381 million ($ 299,841 thousand), compared with approximately (Yen) 27,904 million as of December 31, 2004. Deferred revenue as of each fiscal year end is expected to become net sales in accordance with contractual period in the future. Deferred revenue was derived from each region as shown in the following table:


	December 31,				December 31,
	2004		2005		2005
	Millions of yen				Thousands of U.S. dollars
Deferred Revenue
Japan	(Yen)	12,369	(Yen)	13,972	$	118,407
North America		5,597		8,387		71,073
Europe		7,469		9,068		76,851
Asia Pacific		1,968		2,765		23,437
Latin America		501		1,189		10,073

Consolidated Total	(Yen)	27,904	(Yen)	35,381	$	299,841

Most of deferred revenue at December 31, 2004 and 2005 was attributable to Japan, North America and Europe. Deferred revenue in Japan at December 31, 2005 increased 13% compared with December 31, 2004 due mainly to increased net sales of “Trend Micro Premium Support” to corporate users and the strong demand for “Virus Buster 2006” in consumer market. Deferred revenue in North America at December 31, 2005 increased 50% compared with December 31, 2004 due mainly to increased net sales as a result of the growing brand recognition and new relationship with and sales through high-profile retail channel partners in consumer market. Deferred revenue in Europe at December 31, 2005 increased 21% compared with December 31, 2004 due mainly to steady increase of demand in the small and medium business market and starting new business in Middle East and Africa.

Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately (Yen) 24,900 million in 2004 and (Yen) 20,646 million ($ 174,962 thousand) in 2005. The decrease from 2004 to 2005 was primarily due to a substantial decrease in accrued income and other taxes.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately (Yen) 16,030 million in 2004 and approximately (Yen) 12,738 million ($ 107,948 thousand) in 2005. The decrease from 2004 to 2005 was primarily due to a (Yen) 17,094 million ($ 144,861 thousand) increase of proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities. This decreased cash outflow was partially offset by (Yen) 10,803 million ($ 91,555 thousand) increase of the payment for marketable securities and securities investments and the payment of (Yen) 2,717 million ($ 23,023 thousand) for business combination.

Net cash used by financing activities was approximately (Yen) 3,250 million in 2004 and approximately (Yen) 2,406 million ($ 20,388 thousand) in 2005. The decrease from 2004 to 2005 was primarily due to no redemption of bonds ( (Yen) 6,500 million ($ 55,084 thousand)) and net proceeds from treasury stock ( (Yen) 3,271 million ($ 27,724 thousand) ). These cash inflow was partially offset by (Yen) 5,937 million ($ 50,315 thousand) decrease in the issuance of common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock warrants and stock acquisition rights and (Yen) 2,963 million ($25,112 thousand) increase in dividends paid.

Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately (Yen) 15,666 million in 2003 and (Yen) 24,900 million in 2004. The increase from 2003 to 2004 was primarily due to an increase of net income and the stronger increase in deferred revenue.

- 35 -

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately (Yen) 9,453 million in 2003 and approximately (Yen) 16,030 million in 2004. The increase from 2003 to 2004 was primarily due to a (Yen) 6,991 million increase in payments for purchases of marketable securities and security investments and the payment of (Yen) 2,156 million for purchases of marketable securities with maturities of three months or less. These increases in payments ware partially offset by a (Yen) 2,041 million increase in proceeds from sales of marketable securities.

Net cash used by financing activities was approximately (Yen) 6,811 million in 2003 approximately (Yen) 3,250 million in 2004. The decrease from 2003 to 2004 was primarily due to a (Yen) 7,771 million increase in the issuance of common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock warrants and stock acquisition rights. This increase in proceeds was partially offset by the payment of (Yen) 1,820 million dividends and a (Yen) 1,500 million increase in redemption of bonds.

At the sixteenth ordinary general meeting of our shareholders held on March 25, 2005, a dividend of (Yen) 36.00 per share was approved. Based on the number of shares outstanding as of December 31, 2004, the record date for the dividend, the maximum cash dividend amount we will pay is (Yen) 4,794 million.

At the seventeenth ordinary general meeting of our shareholders held on March 28, 2006, a dividend of (Yen) 56.00 ($0.47) per share was approved. Based on the number of shares outstanding as of December 31, 2005, the record date for the dividend, the maximum cash dividend amount we will pay is (Yen) 7,509 million.

We issued (Yen) 5,000 million worth of unsecured bonds due March 2004 with detachable warrants in connection with our 2001 incentive plan in March 2001. The bonds bear interest at the annual rate of 1.75%. These bonds were redeemed in March 2004.

We issued (Yen) 1,500 million worth of unsecured bonds due June 2004 with detachable warrants in connection with our 2001 incentive plan in June 2001. The bonds bear interest at the annual rate of 1.5%. These bonds were redeemed in June 2004.

We issued (Yen) 6,000 million worth of unsecured bonds due November 2004 with detachable warrants in connection with our 2001 incentive plan in November 2001. The bonds bear interest at the annual rate of 1.75%. (Yen) 6,000 million worth of unsecured bonds issued in November 2001 was repurchased in December 2001. These bonds were redeemed in November 2004.

We issued (Yen) 4,000 million worth of unsecured bonds due April 2006 with detachable warrants in connection with our 2002 incentive plan in April 2002. The bonds bear interest at the annual rate of 1.90%. (Yen) 4,000 million worth of unsecured bonds issued in April 2002 were repurchased in May 2002.

We have invested the proceeds of the bonds in cash and other short-term investments. Since these investments are likely to yield less interest income than the interest expense on the bonds, we incurred a net interest expense with respect to the bonds.

In order to reduce interest cost, we repurchased some of the bonds in the market with the intention to hold the treasury bonds until they can be extinguished legally. As the repurchase transaction is deemed as redemption of the bonds in substance, the treasury bonds are offset with the bonds on the face of our consolidated balance sheet. We used the proceeds of the bond issuance for working capital and general corporate purposes.

In 1998, we entered into three overdraft agreements with Japanese commercial banks, under which we are able to obtain short-term financing at prevailing interest rates for periods not in excess of one year. One of the three overdraft agreements was terminated in 2002 and the other two agreements have been cancelled as of February 28, 2005.

C. Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, the aggregate compensation of all directors and executive officers paid or accrued by Trend Micro was 109 million yen ($923 thousand), 91 million yen ($771 thousand) for directors and 18 million yen ($152thousand) for corporate auditors. Under the Japanese Commercial Code and local practice, we may make severance payments to a retired director or corporate auditor with shareholder approval when our management proposes such payments based on a resolution of our Board of Directors. We have an internal formula to determine the amounts of severance payments to corporate auditors when we make such a proposal for corporate auditors. We have not recorded any liabilities relating to severance payments to directors and corporate auditors as of December 31, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 because we have no liabilities to directors, and related liabilities to corporate auditors were insignificant.

Information regarding stock options granted to our directors and executive officers is provided in Item 6.E.

C. Board Practices.

Directors are elected at a general meeting of shareholders, and the normal term of office of a director is two years, although they may serve any number of consecutive terms. We do not have audit or remuneration committees, a standard practice in Japan. We do not have any service contracts with any of our directors providing for benefits upon termination of employment.

In accordance with the requirements of the Company Law of Japan, our Articles of Incorporation provide for not more than four (4) corporate auditors. Corporate auditors, of whom at least two must be from outside of the company, are elected at a general meeting of shareholders, and the normal term of office of a corporate auditor is four years, although they may serve any number of consecutive terms. Corporate auditors are under a statutory duty to oversee the administration of our affairs by the directors, to examine our financial statements and business reports to be submitted by the Board of Directors to the general meetings of shareholders and to report their opinions thereon to the shareholders, and to oversee accounting firms which audit our financial statements. They are required to attend meetings of the Board of Directors and to express their opinions if necessary, but they are not entitled to vote. Corporate auditors also have a statutory duty to provide their report on the audit report prepared by our independent certified public accountants to the board of corporate auditors, which must submit its audit report to the Board of Directors. The board of corporate auditors will also determine matters relating to the duties of the corporate auditors, such as audit policy and methods of investigation of our affairs.

Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(a)(1) provides that a foreign private issuer may follow its home country practice in lieu of the requirements of Rule 4350, provided that such foreign private issuer discloses in its annual reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission each requirement of Rule 4350 that it does not follow and describes the home country practice followed by the issuer in lieu of such requirements.

Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(c) requires that (i) a majority of the board of directors be independent directors as defined in Rule 4200(a)(15), (ii) independent directors have regularly scheduled meetings at which only they are present, (iii) compensation of the chief executive officer and other executive officers be determined, or recommended to the board of directors for determination, either by a majority of the independent directors or by a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors, and (iv) director nominees be selected, or recommended for selection by the board of directors, either by a majority of the independent directors or by a nominations committee comprised solely of independent directors, in accordance with the nominations process set forth in a formal written charter or board resolution. For large Japanese companies under the Company Law of Japan ( “Large Japanese Companies”), including us, which employ a corporate governance system based on a board of corporate auditors, Japan’s Company Law has no independence requirement with respect to directors. As discussed above, the task of overseeing management and accounting firms is assigned to the corporate auditors, who are separate and independent from the company’s management. Large Japanese Companies, including us, are required to have at least 50% “outside” corporate auditor who must meet additional independence requirements under the Company Law. An outside corporate auditor is defined in the Company Law as a corporate auditor who had not served as a director, manager or any other employee of the company or any of its subsidiaries at any time prior to the appointment. Currently, we have four outside corporate auditors.

Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(d) requires that (i) each issuer have adopted a formal written audit committee charter meeting the requirements of Rule 4350(d)(1) and (ii) the issuer have an audit committee of at least three members who are independent as defined under Rule 4200(a)(15), meet the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and satisfy certain other criteria. Like a majority of Japanese companies, we employ the corporate auditor system as described above. Under this system, the board of corporate auditors is a legally separate and independent body from the board of directors. The function of the board of corporate auditors is similar to that of independent directors, including those who are members of the audit committee, of a U.S. company: to monitor the performance of the directors, and review and express an opinion on the method of auditing by the company’s accounting firm and on such accounting firm’s audit reports, for the protection of the company’s shareholders. Large Japanese Companies, including us, are required to have at least three corporate auditors. Currently, we have four corporate auditors. In addition, as discussed above, our corporate auditors serve a longer term than our directors. Starting on July 31, 2005, when the requirements of Rule 10A-3 relating to listed company audit committees become applicable to foreign private issuers, we expect to rely on an exemption under that rule which is available to foreign private issuers with boards of corporate auditors meeting certain criteria. We will make the disclosure required by Item 16D of Form 20-F regarding such reliance in our annual reports on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005 and thereafter.

Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(f) provide that each issuer provide for a quorum as specified in its by-laws for any meeting of holders of common stock, which shall be at least 33 1/3% of the outstanding shares of the issuer’s voting common stock. We provide for a quorum as specified in the Articles of Incorporation for any meeting of holders of common stock, which shall be at least one-third of our outstanding shares of the voting common stock.

Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(g) provides that each issuer solicit proxies and provide proxy statements for all meetings of shareholders and provide copies of such proxy solicitation to Nasdaq. Currently a Japanese company whose shares are listed on the securities exchanges defined in the Securities and Exchange Law, including us, may, but is not required to, solicit proxies for meetings of shareholders. If such a Japanese company solicits proxies for a meeting of shareholders, it is required to provide proxy statements and documents for reference as provided for in the Securities and Exchange Law and provide copies of such proxy statements and documents for reference to the Kanto Local Finance Bureau.

Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(h) provides that each issuer conduct appropriate review of all related party transactions for potential conflict of interest situations on an ongoing basis and that all such transactions be approved by the issuer’s audit committee or another independent body of the board of directors. Following the requirements of the Company Law of Japan, we require a director to obtain the approval of the Board of Directors in order for such director to accept a transfer of a product or any other asset of Trend Micro, to transfer a product or any other asset of such director to Trend Micro, to receive a loan from Trend Micro, or to effect any other transaction with Trend Micro, for himself or a third party.

Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(i) provides that shareholder approval be obtained prior to the issuance of designated securities under subparagraph (A), (B), (C) or (D) of Rule 4350(i). Where a Japanese joint stock company (Kabushiki-Gaisha), issues common shares or other shares, stock acquisition rights or bonds with stock acquisition rights under the Commercial Code of Japan, it is necessary for the board of directors to determine the conditions of issuance; provided, however, that this shall not apply if the Articles of Incorporation provide that such conditions shall be determined by the shareholders’ meeting. Currently, Trend Micro’s Articles of Incorporation do not provide for any such exception. Additionally, if the company issues such securities to persons other than shareholders (in case of common shares or other shares) at a specially favorable issue price or (in case of stock acquisition rights or bonds with stock acquisition rights) on specially favorable conditions, even when there are provisions related thereto in the Articles of Incorporation, some matters related to such issuance shall be resolved by special resolution of the shareholders’ meeting.

The rights of ADR holders, including their rights relating to corporate governance practices, are provided in the deposit agreement which is an exhibit to this annual report.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITIES OF SOME DIRECTORS

We have entered into an agreement with one of our directors, Hirotaka Takeuchi, that limits his liabilities to us for damages suffered by us due to his acts taken in good faith and without gross negligence, up to the higher of (a) (Yen)10 million or (b) the amount specified in the agreement, which is the aggregate amount of two years’ remunerations and other compensation received or entitled to be received by him.

D. Employees.

As of December 31, 2004, we had 2,466 employees, of whom 1,719 were located in Asia, 381 were located in the United States, 281 were located in Europe and 85 were located in other regions. And of the 2,466 employees, 421 were in administrative positions, 653 were in sales and marketing positions, 641 were in research and development positions and 751 were in technical support positions.

As of December 31, 2005, we had 2,982 employees, of whom 2,116 were located in Asia, 462 were located in the United States, 349 were located in Europe and 55 were located in Latin America. And of the 2,982 employees, 494 were in administrative positions, 828 were in sales and marketing positions, 800 were in research and development positions and 860 were in technical support positions.

Our employees do not belong to any labor union. We believe that our employee relations are good.

Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions.

A. Major Shareholders.

The Securities and Exchange Law of Japan requires any company which is the issuer of securities which are, among other considerations, listed on any Japanese stock exchange in Japan to disclose information about its major shareholders, including approximately its ten largest shareholders of record as of the end of each fiscal year and each semi-annual period. Also, as explained under Item 10.D below, any person who becomes, beneficially or of record and solely or jointly, a holder of more than 5% of the total issued shares of a company listed on any Japanese stock exchange, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan, must file with the Local Finance Bureau having jurisdiction within five business days a report concerning such shareholding. For this purpose, shares issuable to such person upon his exchange of exchangeable securities, conversion of convertible securities or exercise of warrants or stock acquisition rights are taken into account in determining both the size of his holding and the issuer’s total issued shares.

As of December 31, 2005, there were three shareholders of record holding 5% or more of the total issued shares of our common stock. One of these shareholders of record, Trueway Company Limited, which held of record 20,186,500 shares, or 14.7% of the total issued shares, is a corporation controlled by Yeh Min-Yuen. Another record shareholder, Gainway Enterprises Limited, which held of record 10,108,000 shares, or 7.3% of the total issued shares, is a corporation controlled by Liao Hsueh-Hsuan. These two individuals’ beneficial ownership of our common stock is disclosed in the table below.

Master Trust Bank of Japan is the custody bank of Japanese mutual funds, pension fund and other trust funds. Master Trust Bank of Japan held of record 9,307,500 shares, or 6.8% of the total issued shares.

- 43 -

Within the last three years, to our knowledge, the following significant changes in the percentage ownership held by major shareholders have occurred:

We are aware of the filing by Barclays Global Investors that, as of March 31, 2005, it and its affiliates together owned, beneficially or of record, 6.4% of the issued shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan. Subsequently, Barclays Global Investors made another filing, which reported that, as of June 30, 2005, it and its affiliates owned, beneficially or of record, 5.3% of the issued shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan. Barclays Global Investors made another filing reporting that, as of August 31, 2005, their beneficial or record ownership fell below 5% of the issued shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan. Again, Barclays Global Investors made another filing, which reported that, as of September 30, 2005, it and its affiliates owned, beneficially or of record, 5.0% of the issued shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan. Barclays Global Investors made another filing reporting that, as of December 31, 2005, their beneficial or record ownership fell below 5% of the issued shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan.

We are aware of the filing by Capital Guardian Trust Company that, as of July 31, 2005, it and its affiliates together owned, beneficially or of record, 6.9% of the issued shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan. Subsequently, Capital Guardian Trust Company made another filing, which reported that, as of August 31, 2005, it and its affiliates owned, beneficially or of record, 9.4% of the issued shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan. Subsequently, Capital Guardian Trust Company made another filing, which reported that, as of December 16, 2005, it and its affiliates owned, beneficially or of record, 10.4% of the issued shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan. Subsequently, Capital Guardian Trust Company made another filing, which reported that, as of January 13, 2006, it and its affiliates owned, beneficially or of record, 11.6% of the issued shares of our common stock, as calculated pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan.

The following table shows information known to us regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of December 31, 2005, by each person known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of our Common stock.


	Shares of common stock beneficially owned
Name	Number	Percentage
Yeh Min-Yuen	20,186,500	14.7	%
Liao Hsueh-Hsuan	10,108,000	7.3	%

As of December 31, 2005, there were 89 record shareholders with addresses in the United States, and those U.S. holders held 24,310,961 shares of our common stock including 1,565,200 held through our ADSs.

To the extent known to us, we are not directly or indirectly owned or controlled by another corporation, by the Japanese or any other government or by any other natural or legal persons severally or jointly.

We know of no arrangements the operations of which may at a later time result in a change of control of Trend Micro.

B. Related Party Transactions

The Company Law came into effect as of the 1st May 2006.

GENERAL

Our authorized share capital as of March 31, 2006 is 250,000,000 shares, of which 136,877,990 shares are issued and 134,346,022 shares are outstanding as of the same date. Under the Company Law, shares must be registered and are transferable by delivery of share certificates when a company issues share certificate like us. In order to assert shareholders’ rights against us, a shareholder must have its name and address registered on our register of shareholders, in accordance with our Share Handling Regulations. The registered beneficial holder of deposited shares underlying the ADSs is the depositary for the ADSs. Accordingly, holders of ADSs will not be able to assert shareholders’ rights.

A holder of shares may choose, at its discretion, to participate in the central clearing system for share certificates under the Law Concerning Central Clearing of Share Certificates and Other Securities of Japan. Participating shareholders must deposit certificates representing all of the shares to be included in this clearing system with Japan Securities Depository Center. If a holder is not a participating institution in the Securities Center, it must participate through a participating institution, such as a securities company or bank having a clearing account with the Securities Center. All shares deposited with the center will be registered in the name of the Securities Center on our register of shareholders. Each participating shareholder will in turn be registered on our register of beneficial shareholders and be treated in the same way as shareholders registered on our register of shareholders. For the purpose of transferring deposited shares, delivery of share certificates is not required. Entry of the share transfer in the books maintained by the Securities Center for participating institutions, or in the book maintained by a participating institution for its customers, has the same effect as delivery of share certificates. The Securities Center system is intended to reduce paperwork required in connection with transfers of shares. Beneficial owners may at any time withdraw their shares from deposit and receive share certificates.

In view of the globalization of securities trading, the Government of Japan is seeking to enhance the safety, efficiency and convenience of the clearing system for securities in Japan. For this purpose, a series of laws has been enacted to establish a unified clearing system for various types of securities and to eliminate certificates representing securities to be traded through this system. A new law to incorporate shares of stock into this “paperless clearing system” was promulgated on June 9, 2004 and will come into force and effect on a date, to be designated by a cabinet ordinance, which will occur within five years from the date of promulgation. On this effective date, the paperless clearing system is expected to become compulsorily applicable to the shares of all listed companies in Japan. On the same date, all share certificates issued by listed companies will become void and the Japan Securities Depository Center clearing system will terminate, but measures will be taken to ensure a smooth transition to the paperless clearing system with respect to all shares, whether the share certificates are then in the possession of shareholders or the Japan Securities Depository Center.

- 47 -

The paperless clearing system will be operated by a clearing organization (which may be the same entity as the Japan Securities Depository Center), and certain institutions, typically securities companies, will participate in the system directly or indirectly through other participating institutions. Following the application of the paperless clearing system to the shares of all listed companies, shareholders of each listed company will be recorded in such company’s register of shareholders. The register of shareholders will be updated at each record date for determining shareholders entitled to dividends and voting rights, and at any other date that may be designated by the company, based on information provided to the company by the clearing organization. Transfer of shares will be effected by book-entry in accounts maintained by the transferor and the transferee at participating institutions. This paperless clearing system is not yet applicable to shares of listed companies as of the date hereof.

DIVIDENDS

Under our Articles of Incorporation, our financial accounts will be closed on December 31 of each year and dividends, if any, will be paid to shareholders of record at December 31. In addition to year-end dividends, the Board of Directors may by resolution declare an interim cash dividend to shareholders of record as of June 30 of each year.

Under the Company Law, distribution of dividends will take the form of a distribution of Surplus (as defined below). A company will be permitted to make distributions of Surplus to its shareholders any number of times per fiscal year pursuant to resolutions of its general meeting of shareholders, and to make an interim cash dividend pursuant to the provisions of its Articles of Incorporation (however, our Articles of Incorporation does not include such provisions.) and the relevant resolution of its Board of Directors, subject to certain limitations described below. Distributions of Surplus will be required in principle to be authorized by a resolution of a general meeting of shareholders.

Under the Company Law, when a company makes a distribution of Surplus, it must set aside in its additional paid-in capital or legal reserve, an amount equal to one-tenth of the amount of Surplus so distributed, as required by an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice. The amount of surplus (the “Surplus”) at any given time shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula:

A + B + C + D – [E + F + G]

In the above formula:

“A” =

the total amount of (a) assets and (b) the book value of treasury stock less the total amount of (v) liabilities, (w) stated capital, (x) additional paid-in capital, (y) legal reserve and (z) certain other amounts set forth in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice, each such amount being that which appears on the company’s non-consolidated balance sheet as at the end of the last fiscal year

“B” =

if the company has disposed of its treasury stock after the end of the last fiscal year, the amount of the consideration for such treasury stock received by the company, less the book value thereof

“C” =

if the company has reduced its stated capital after the end of the last fiscal year, the amount of such reduction, less the portion thereof, that has been transferred to additional paid-in capital or legal reserve (if any)

“D” =

if the company has reduced its additional paid-in capital or legal reserve after the end of the last fiscal year, the amount of such reduction, less the portion thereof, that has been transferred to stated capital (if any)

“E” =

if the company has cancelled its treasury stock after the end of the last fiscal year, the book value of such treasury stock

“F” =

if the company has distributed Surplus to its shareholders after the end of the last fiscal year, the total book value of the Surplus so distributed

“G” =

certain other amounts set forth in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice

Under the Company Law, the aggregate book value of Surplus distributed by the company may not exceed a prescribed distributable amount (the “Distributable Amount”), as calculated on the effective date of such distribution. The Distributable Amount of the company at any given time shall be the amount of Surplus less the aggregate of (a) the book value of its treasury stock, (b) the amount of consideration for any of its treasury stock disposed of by it after the end of the last fiscal year and (c) certain other amounts set forth in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice.

- 48 -

JAPANESE UNIT SHARE SYSTEM

In accordance with the requirements of the Company Law, our Articles of Incorporation provide that 500 shares constitute one “unit.” Under the Company Law and ordinance of the Ministry of Justice, the upper limit of the number of shares constituting a unit is permitted to be 1,000 shares. The unit share system does not affect the transferability of ADSs, which may be transferred in lots of any size.

Under the Company Law and the Deposit Agreement, holders of ADSs will be able to surrender ADSs and withdraw the underlying shares from deposit only in whole unit lots of one unit or larger. A holder who owns ADRs evidencing less than 500 ADSs will indirectly own less than a whole unit. Such a holder will not be able to dispose of its shares in lots of less than one unit and will not have access to the Japanese market through surrender of their ADSs and withdrawal and sale in Japan of the underlying shares. The Japanese unit share system does not affect the transferability of ADSs, which may be transferred in lots of any size.

A holder of shares representing less than one unit may at any time require us to purchase such shares. Such shares will be purchased at their last reported sale price on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange on the day a request pertaining to such purchase is delivered to our transfer agent or, if no sales take place on that day, the price at which the next sale of shares is effected on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, less applicable brokerage commissions. However, because holders of ADSs representing less than one unit are not able to withdraw the underlying shares from deposit, such holders will not be able to exercise this right as a practical matter.

Under the Company Law, our Articles of Incorporation and our Share Handling Regulations, a holder of shares representing less than one unit has all the rights that a holder of shares representing a full unit of shares; except for the rights:

•

to require us to issue share certificates;

•

to require us to issue replacement certificates for lost, stolen or destroyed share certificates; and

•

to vote.

A holder of shares representing less than one unit cannot exercise any voting rights pertaining to such shares. In calculating the quorum for various voting purposes, the aggregate number of shares representing less than one unit will be excluded from the number of outstanding shares. A holder of shares representing one or more whole units will have one vote for each unit held.

GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

We normally hold our ordinary general meeting of shareholders in March of each year in Tokyo, Japan. In addition, we may hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders whenever necessary by giving at least two weeks’ advance notice. Under the Company Law, notice of any shareholders’ meeting must be given to each shareholder having voting rights or, in the case of a non-resident shareholder, to his resident proxy or mailing address in Japan in accordance with our Share Handling Regulations, at least two weeks prior to the date of the meeting.

Any shareholder holding at least 3% of the total outstanding voting rights for a continuous period of six months or longer may require the Directors to convene a general meeting of shareholders for a particular purpose by submitting a written request. Unless such meeting is convened promptly or a notice convening the meeting, which is to be held not later than eight weeks from the day of such demand, is dispatched, the requesting shareholder may, upon obtaining a court approval, convene such meeting.

Any shareholder or group of shareholders holding at least 300 voting rights, or 1% of the total outstanding voting rights, for a continuous period of six months or longer may propose a matter for consideration at a shareholders meeting by submitting a written request to the Directors at least eight weeks before such meeting.

- 49 -

VOTING RIGHTS

A shareholder is generally entitled to one vote per unit. In general, under the Company Law, a resolution can be adopted at a general meeting of shareholders by a majority of the voting rights represented at the meeting. The Company Law and our Articles of Incorporation require a quorum for the election of directors and corporate auditors of not less than one-third of the total number of outstanding voting rights. Our shareholders are not entitled to cumulative voting in the election of directors. Under the Company Law, a corporate shareholder whose outstanding voting rights are in turn more than one-quarter directly or indirectly owned by us or who substantially controls our management through the shareholding or for any other reason provided in an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice regarding the Company Law does not have voting rights. Shareholders may exercise their voting rights through proxies, provided that such proxies are also shareholders who have voting rights. Under the Company Law, a system that allows shareholders who do not attend a meeting of shareholders to exercise their voting rights in writing must be adopted by any company, the number of whose shareholders (except for shareholders who can not vote on any resolutions at its meeting of shareholders), is no less than 1000. This does not include companies which issue shares listed on any securities exchange and send letters of procuration to shareholders provided for by the Securities Exchange Law and the Cabinet Office regulations concerning the Securities Exchange Law. A company may adopt a system by which shareholders who do not attend meetings of shareholders can exercise their voting rights through electromagnetic methods provided for by an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice regarding the Company Law.

The Company Law and our Articles of Incorporation provide that a quorum of not less than one-third of outstanding voting rights must be present at a shareholders’ meeting and the approval of at least two-thirds of the voting rights represented at the meeting is required for adopting a special resolution. Matters requiring a special resolution include:

•

amendment of the Articles of Incorporation;

•

the removal of a corporate auditor;

•

establishment of a 100% parent-subsidiary relationship by way of share exchange or share transfer;

•

a dissolution, merger or consolidation;

•

a company split;

•

the transfer of the whole or an important part of our business;

•

the taking over of the whole of the business of any other corporation;

•

any issuance of new shares at a “specially favorable” price (or any issuance of bond with share acquisition right with “specially favorable” terms or of share acquisition right with “specially favorable” terms to persons other than shareholders);

•

the negotiated purchase of treasury shares;

•

a stock consolidation;

•

limitation of liabilities of directors and corporate auditors; and,

•

a continuing to exist of a company or dormant company.

Under the Company Law, a distribution by the company of Surplus in kind will require a special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders, if shareholders are not granted the right to require the company to make such distribution in cash instead of in kind.

The voting rights of holders of ADSs are exercised by the depositary based on instructions from such holders. An agent of the depositary is the record holder of the underlying shares.

SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS

Holders of shares have no preemptive rights under our Articles of Incorporation. Under the Company Law, the Board of Directors may, however, determine that shareholders be given subscription rights in connection with a particular issue of new shares. In this case, such rights must be given on uniform terms to all shareholders as of a specified record date by at least two weeks’ prior notice to shareholders of the record date. Individual notice must be given to each of these shareholders at least two weeks prior to the date of expiration of the subscription rights.

Rights to subscribe for new shares may be transferable or nontransferable as determined by the Board of Directors. If subscription rights are not transferable, a purported transfer by a shareholder who is not resident in Japan will be enforceable against us and third parties only with our prior written consent.

- 50 -

LIQUIDATION RIGHTS

Upon liquidation, the assets remaining after payment of all debts, liquidation expenses and taxes will be distributed among the shareholders in proportion to the number of shares they own.

LIABILITY TO FURTHER CALLS OR ASSESSMENTS

All of our currently outstanding shares, including shares represented by the ADSs, are fully paid and nonassessable.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS

Pursuant to the Company Law and our Articles of Incorporation, we may, by resolution of our Board of Directors, release the liabilities of any Directors or Executive Officers to us for damages suffered by us due to their acts taken in good faith and without gross negligence, to the extent permitted by law and our Articles of Incorporation. In addition, we may execute with outside directors agreements that limit their liabilities to us for damages suffered by us due to their acts in good faith and without gross negligence, to the extent permitted by the laws of Japan and our Articles of Incorporation.

TRANSFER AGENT

Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation is the transfer agent for our shares. Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation’s office is located at 4-5, Marunouchi 1-chome, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, 100-8212 Japan. Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation, maintains our register of shareholders and records transfers of record ownership upon presentation of share certificates.

REPURCHASE OF SHARES BY US

The Company Law, in principle, permits us to acquire, hold or dispose of our shares. We may acquire our shares on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange on which the shares are traded, through the Japanese stock exchange, if any, on which such shares are listed, by way of tender offer (pursuant to a resolution of a meeting of the Board of Directors, by having been provided for in the Articles of Incorporation), from a specific party (pursuant to a special resolution of an ordinary general meeting of shareholders) or from our subsidiary (pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors). When such acquisition is made by us from a specific party other than our subsidiary, any shareholder may make a request directly to a director, five days prior to the relevant shareholders’ meeting, that we acquire the shares held by such shareholder. However, no such right will be available if the purchase price or any other consideration to be received by the relevant specific shareholder does not exceed the current market price, to be provided for by an ordinance of the Ministry of Justice, of the shares to be purchased from such shareholder.

We may hold the shares acquired in compliance with the provisions of the Company Law, and generally, may dispose of or cancel such shares by a resolution of the Board of Directors. Under the Company Law, the total purchase price of shares may not exceed the Distributable Amount, as defined in “-DIVIDENDS”.

DAILY PRICE FLUCTUATION LIMITS UNDER JAPANESE STOCK EXCHANGE RULES

Share prices on Japanese stock exchanges are determined on a real-time basis by the equilibrium between bids and offers. These exchanges are order-driven markets without specialists or market makers to guide price formation. To prevent excessive volatility, these exchanges set daily upward and downward price fluctuation limits for each share, based on the previous day’s closing price. Although transactions may continue at the upward or downward limit price if the limit price is reached on a particular trading day, no transactions may take place outside these limits. Consequently, an investor wishing to sell at a price above or below the relevant daily limit may not be able to sell his shares at such price on a particular trading day, or at all.

- 51 -

On May 31, 2006, the closing price of our shares on the Tokyo Stock Exchange was (Yen)3,840 per share. The following table shows the daily price limit for a stock on the Tokyo Stock Exchange with a closing price of between (Yen)3,000 and (Yen)5,000 per share, as well as the daily price limit if our per share price were to rise to between (Yen)5,000 and (Yen)10,000, or fall to between (Yen)2,000 and (Yen)3,000. Other daily price limits would apply if our per share price moved to other ranges.


Selected Daily Price Limits						Maximum Daily Price Movement
Previous Day’s Closing Price or Special Quote						Maximum Daily Price Movement
Over	(Yen)	2,000	Less than	(Yen)	3,000	(Yen)	400
Over		3,000	Less than		5,000		500
Over		5,000	Less than		10,000		1,000

For a history of the trading price of our shares on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, see Item 9.A of this annual report.

C. Material Contracts.

The information required by this item is set forth in Item 4.

D. Exchange Controls.

The Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Law of Japan and the cabinet orders and ministerial ordinances issued under the law govern the acquisition and holding of shares of equity securities of Japanese corporations, including Trend Micro, by exchange non-residents and by foreign investors.

Exchange non-residents are individuals who are not resident in Japan and corporations whose principal offices are located outside Japan. Generally, branches and other offices of non-resident corporations located within Japan are regarded as exchange residents of Japan and branches and other offices of Japanese corporations located outside Japan are regarded as exchange non-residents of Japan.

Foreign investors are defined to be:

•

individuals not resident in Japan;

•

corporations which are organized under the laws of foreign countries or whose principal offices are located outside Japan;

•

corporations not less than 50% of the voting rights of which are directly or indirectly held by individuals or corporations described above; and

•

a corporation in which a majority of the directors or similar persons having the power of representation are non-resident individuals of Japan.

In accordance with this amendment, with minor exceptions, all aspects of the foreign exchange and foreign trade transactions which under the previous law required licensing or other approval or prior notification to the Minister of Finance of Japan now only require reporting of such transactions after they occur. However, the Minister of Finance of Japan retains the power to impose a licensing requirement for some transactions in limited circumstances.

ACQUISITION OF SHARES

Except as described below, there are no limits under Japanese law on the right of foreign investors to hold or vote our securities. Exchange non- residents who acquire from an exchange resident of Japan shares of a company, listed on any Japanese stock exchange or whose shares are traded on the Japanese over-the-counter market, are not required to file any notice prior to the acquisition. Under the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Law the Minister of Finance may in some exceptional circumstances require prior approval for any such acquisition. An exchange resident who transfers shares of a listed company to an exchange non-resident for value exceeding (Yen)100 million must file a report concerning the transfer of securities with the Minister of Finance within 20 days of the date of such transfer.

If a foreign investor acquires shares of a company listed on any Japanese stock exchange or whose shares are traded on the Japanese over-the-counter market and as a result of the acquisition, such foreign investor and designated related parties hold 10% or more of the issued shares, the foreign investor must file a report of the acquisition with the Minister of Finance and other Ministers having jurisdiction over the business of the issuer within 15 days from and including the date of the acquisition. In limited circumstances, including the case of an acquisition of our shares that causes a foreign investor’s ownership to reach such percentage, however, a prior notification of the acquisition must be filed with the Minister of Finance and other Ministers having jurisdiction over the business of the issuer. These Ministers may modify or prohibit the proposed acquisition.

- 52 -

DIVIDENDS AND PROCEEDS OF SALES

Under the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Law, dividends paid on, and the proceeds of sales in Japan of, shares held by exchange non-residents may, in general, be converted into any foreign currency and repatriated abroad. The requirements described in “Acquisition of Shares” above do not apply to the acquisition of shares by non-residents by way of stock splits.

AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES

The formalities or restrictions referred to under “—Acquisition of Shares” above do not apply to the deposit of shares by a non-resident of Japan, the issuance of ADRs evidencing the ADSs created by such deposit in exchange therefore and the withdrawal of whole units of underlying shares upon surrender of ADRs.

REPORTING OF SUBSTANTIAL SHAREHOLDINGS

The Securities and Exchange Law of Japan requires any person who becomes, beneficially or of record and solely or jointly, a holder of more than 5% of the total issued shares of a company listed on any Japanese stock exchange or whose shares are traded on the Japanese over-the-counter market to file with the Financial Services Agency within five business days a report concerning such shareholding.

A similar report must also be made in respect of any subsequent change of 1% or more in any such holding. For this purpose, shares issuable to such person upon conversion of convertible securities or exercise of share subscription warrants are taken into account in determining both the number of shares held by the holder and the issuer’s total issued share capital. Copies of each such report must also be sent to the issuer of such shares and all Japanese stock exchanges on which the shares are listed

E. Taxation.

JAPANESE TAXATION

In general, for Japanese tax purposes, owners of ADRs evidencing ADSs will be treated as the owners of the shares represented by such ADSs, and no Japanese tax will be payable on exchanges of shares for ADSs, and ADSs for shares.

This discussion does not consider the effect of any state, local or national tax laws other than Japanese tax laws that may be applicable to a purchaser of shares or ADSs. Furthermore, the “Convention Between the United States of America and Japan for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income” (the “Treaty”), the laws, or administrative or judicial interpretation of the Treaty or the laws may change, and the changes may have retroactive effect. We urge you to consult your tax advisors regarding the Japanese and other tax consequences of owning and disposing of shares and ADSs.

The following summary describes the principal Japanese tax consequences relating to an investment in our shares or ADSs. This summary applies only to persons or entities which are non-residents of Japan and to non-Japanese corporations without a permanent establishment in Japan to which the relevant income is attributable.

Generally, Japanese withholding tax will apply to dividends paid by us to a non-resident of Japan or a non-Japanese corporation. In general, no Japanese tax is payable on stock splits.

Under the Treaty, as currently in force after July 1, 2004, the maximum rate of Japanese withholding tax which may be imposed on dividends paid to a United States resident or corporation not having a “permanent establishment,” which is generally a fixed place of business for industrial or commercial activity, in Japan is limited to:

(1)	5% of the gross amount of the dividends if the beneficial owner is a company that owns directly or indirectly, on the date on which entitlement to the dividends is determined, at least 10 % of the voting stock of the company paying the dividends; or

(2)	10 % of the gross amount of the dividends in all other cases.

- 53 -

Notwithstanding the above, Japanese withholding tax shall not be imposed on such dividends if the beneficial owner of the dividends is:

(1)

a company that is a resident of the United States that has owned, directly or indirectly through one or more residents of either Japan or the United States, more than 50 % of the voting stock of the company paying the dividends for the period of twelve months ending on the date on which entitlement to the dividends is determined and that satisfies other conditions; or

(2)	a pension fund that is a resident of the United States, provided that such dividends are not derived from the carrying on of a business, directly or indirectly, by such pension fund.

For purposes of the Treaty, and Japanese tax law, U.S. holders of ADRs will be treated as the beneficial owners of the shares underlying the ADSs evidenced by the ADRs.

In the absence of any applicable tax treaty, convention or agreement reducing the maximum rate of withholding tax, the rate of Japanese withholding tax applicable to dividends paid by Japanese corporations to a non-resident or non-Japanese corporation is 20%. Japan has entered into income tax treaties, conventions or agreements, whereby the 20% withholding tax rate is reduced generally to 15% for portfolio investors. In addition to the United States, countries with which Japan has concluded such treaties, conventions or agreements include Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

You must file an application for reduced withholding with the Japanese tax authorities through taxpayer to claim the benefits of the reduced withholding rate on dividends under the Treaty. The application must be filed on or before the day on which the dividend is paid. If you hold ADSs, two application forms must be filed through the depositary, one form before the dividend payment and the other within eight months after our fiscal year in which the dividend is paid. To claim the reduced rate, you will need to file proof of:

•

taxpayer status;

•

residence; and

•

beneficial ownership.

The depositary may also require you to provide other information. If you do not submit an application for reduced withholding before a dividend is paid, you may file a claim for refund of the excess tax with the Japanese tax authorities.

Under the Special Taxation Measures Law amended at March 31, 2003, the rate of withholding tax applicable to dividends paid to shareholders other than those holding 5% or more of the total number of issued shares, by Japanese corporations listed on any Japanese stock exchange or whose shares are traded on the Japanese over-the-counter market, on and after April 1, 2003 is reduced to 15%. Additionally, the above dividends paid on and after April 1, 2003 are applied to the privilege tax rate of 10%, from April 1, 2004 to March 31 and 7%, January 1, 2004 to March 31, 2008.

You will not have to pay any Japanese tax on a sale of our shares or ADSs. If you make a gift of our shares or die holding our shares, a person who receives the shares as a gift or inherits the shares may have to pay Japanese gift or inheritance tax.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION

This section describes the material U.S. federal income taxation of the ownership of shares or ADSs by U.S. Holders, as defined below. It applies to you only if you hold your shares or ADSs as capital assets for tax purposes.

This section is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in effect, as well as on the Treaty. These laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis. In addition, this section is based in part upon the representations of the Depositary and the assumption that each obligation in the Deposit Agreement and any related agreement will be performed in accordance with its terms.

For purposes of the Treaty and the Code, U.S. holders of ADRs will be treated as the owners of the shares underlying the ADSs evidenced by the ADRs. Exchanges of shares for ADRs, and ADRs for shares, generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. For purposes of this discussion, you are a U.S. holder if you are a beneficial owner of shares or ADSs and you are for United States federal income tax purposes (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a domestic corporation, (iii) an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source or (iv) a trust if a United States court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more United States persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

- 54 -

This section does not apply to you if you are a member of a special class of holders subject to special rules, including a dealer in securities, a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for your securities holdings, a tax-exempt organization, a life insurance company, a person liable for alternative minimum tax, a person that actually or constructively owns 10% or more of the voting stock of Trend Micro, a person that holds shares or ADSs as part of a straddle or a hedging or conversion transaction, or a U.S. holder whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

This summary is not a comprehensive description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant with respect to your shares or ADSs. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, state and local and other tax consequences of owning and disposing of shares and ADSs in your particular circumstances.

Taxation of Dividends.

Under the U.S. federal income tax laws, and subject to the passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) rules discussed below, if you are a U.S. holder, the gross amount of any dividend that Trend Micro pays out of its current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is subject to United States federal income taxation. You must include any Japanese tax withheld from the dividend payment in this gross amount even though you do not in fact receive it. Dividends paid to a noncorporate U.S. holder in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2011 that constitute qualified dividend income will be taxable to such holder at a maximum tax rate of 15% provided that the noncorporate U.S. holder holds the shares or ADSs for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date and meets other holding period requirements. Dividends that Trend Micro pays with respect to the shares or ADSs will generally be qualified dividend income.

The dividend is taxable to you when you, in the case of shares, or the Depositary, in the case of ADSs, receive the dividend, actually or constructively. The dividend will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to U.S. corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations. The amount of the dividend distribution that you must include in your income as a U.S. holder will be the U.S. dollar value of the Japanese yen payments made, determined at the spot Japanese yen/U.S. dollar rate on the date of the dividend distribution, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars. Generally, any gain or loss resulting from currency exchange fluctuations during the period from the date you include the dividend payment in income to the date you convert the payment into U.S. dollars will be treated as ordinary income or loss and will not be eligible for the special tax rate applicable to qualified dividend income. The gain or loss generally will be income or loss from sources within the U.S. for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of your basis in the shares or ADSs and thereafter as capital gain.

Subject to certain limitations, the Japanese tax withheld in accordance with the Treaty and paid over to Japan will be creditable against your United States federal income tax liability. Special rules apply in determining the foreign tax credit limitation with respect to dividends that are subject to the maximum 15% tax rate. To the extent a refund of the tax withheld is available to you under Japanese law or under the Treaty, the amount of tax withheld that is refundable will not be eligible for credit against your United States federal income tax liability. Please see “Japanese Taxation,” above, for the procedures for obtaining a reduced rate of withholding under a treaty or a tax refund.

Dividends will be income from sources outside the United States, but dividends paid in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2007 generally will be “passive” or “financial services” income and dividends paid in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2006 will, depending on your circumstances, be “passive” or “general” income which is, in either case, treated separately from other types of income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit allowable to you.

Distributions of additional shares to you with respect to shares or ADSs that are made as part of a pro rata distribution to all shareholders of Trend Micro generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax.

Taxation of Capital Gains

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, if you are a U.S. holder and you sell or otherwise dispose of your shares or ADSs, you will recognize capital gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the amount that you realize and your tax basis, determined in U.S. dollars, in your shares or ADSs. Capital gain of a noncorporate U.S. holder that is recognized in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2011 will generally be taxed at a maximum rate of 15% where the holder has a holding period greater than one year. The gain or loss will generally be income or loss from sources within the U.S. for foreign tax credit limitation purposes.

PFIC Rules

We believe that shares and ADSs should not be treated as shares of a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but this conclusion is a factual determination that is made annually and thus may be subject to change. Moreover, this determination will be based in part on circumstances that are beyond our control, such as, for example, our market capitalization. If we were to be treated as a PFIC, unless a U.S. holder elects to be taxed annually on a mark-to-market basis with respect to the shares or ADSs, gain realized on the sale or other disposition of your shares or ADSs would in general not be treated as capital gain. Instead, if you are a U.S. holder, you would be treated as if you had realized such gain and certain “excess distributions” ratably over your holding period for the shares or ADSs and would be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for each such year to which the gain was allocated, together with an interest charge in respect of the tax attributable to each such year. With certain exceptions, shares or ADSs will be treated as stock in a PFIC if Trend Micro were a PFIC at any time during your holding period in your shares or ADSs. Dividends that a U.S. holder receives from Trend Micro will not be eligible for the special tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income if Trend Micro is a PFIC either in the taxable year of the distribution or the preceding taxable year, but instead will be taxable at rates applicable to ordinary income.

We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, in accordance therewith, we file periodic reports and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These reports and other information can be inspected at the public reference room at the Securities and Exchange Commission at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549.

You may obtain information on the operation of the Securities and Exchange public reference room by calling the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States at 1-800-SEC-0330. The Securities and Exchange Commission also maintains a web site at www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy statements and other information regarding registrants that file electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements to shareholders.

Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As discussed in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements, we have a policy of not utilizing any derivative financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. The financial instruments other than derivatives as of December 31, 2005 were cash and cash equivalents, time deposits, marketable debt and equity securities, notes and accounts receivable, trade, notes and account payable, trade and long-term debt. Among these financial instruments, we do not have significant market sensitive instruments with significant exposure to market risk. When we acquired ipTrend, we acquired two derivative instruments which ipTrend held. One of those instruments has expired during the fiscal year 2004 and the other has also expired at January 2005. At the expiration, we did not suffer any material losses from those instruments. However, this has not altered our policy of not utilizing derivative financial statements.

Item 15. Controls and Procedures.

Our Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of December 31, 2005. Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of December 31, 2005 in the light of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that have been identified, as described below.

As a foreign private issuer, the Company is not yet subject to the requirement of Rule 13a-15(c) under the Exchange Act that an issuer’s management, with the participation of its principal executive and financial officers, evaluate the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of the end of each fiscal year. However, in connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005, our principal accountant reported to our Board of Corporate Auditors the following material weakness pursuant to AU Section 325, Communication of Internal Control Related Matters Noted in an Audit, of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Professional Standards.

We have restated the pro forma stock compensation disclosures required by FAS 123 as amended by FAS 148 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 in order to reflect the corrections in the amortization period, expected life assumption and volatilities used to determine pro forma stock-based compensation expense. Furthermore, in response to a comment received from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we have also restated the statements of income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 in order to reclassify maintenance costs previously reported as part of research and development and maintenance cost within operating expenses and customer support expenses also previously included in operating expenses, into cost of sales. Management has determined that these items were indicative of an ineffective financial closing process at the Company as of December 31, 2005. Management believes that this was the result of (i) an inadequate number of accounting personnel with sufficient technical expertise in the area of U.S. GAAP and financial reporting at both our corporate headquarters and foreign subsidiaries, (ii) failure to document with sufficient support the application of our accounting policies, practices and procedures, and (iii) lack of effective preventive and detective controls to properly apply U.S. GAAP in our financial reporting process. As a result, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2005 there were deficiencies in the design and execution of our company-level controls that constituted material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

During the period covered by this report (fiscal 2005), there were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. During the current fiscal year (fiscal 2006), as a result of the identification of the material weaknesses noted above, we have been taking a series of steps to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting to remediate these material weaknesses, including enhancing our internal resources to address U.S. GAAP matters, increasing the levels of review and oversight of our financial statement closing process, and hiring new leading outsourcer for computing stock option expense. With these measures, the management is seeking to enhance and align the Company’s processes and internal controls over financial reporting with the goal to complete the remediation of these material weaknesses by the end of the current fiscal year.

Item 16A. Audit Committee Financial Expert.

Our Board of Corporate Auditors has determined that we do not have an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 16A of Form 20-F serving on the Board of Corporate Auditors. We believe that the combined knowledge, skills and experience of the Board of Corporate Auditors enables them, as a group, to act effectively in the fulfillment of their tasks and responsibilities, including those under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In addition, the Corporate Auditors have the power and authority to engage outside experts as they deem appropriate to provide them with advice on matters related to their responsibilities.

Item 16B. Code of Ethics.

We have adopted a code of conduct applicable to all of our employees, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Group Controller and other senior finance officers. A copy of our code of conduct is attached as an exhibit to this report.

Item 16C. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

The following table sets forth the aggregate fees billed or to be billed to us by PricewaterhouseCoopers, our principal accountant, for the following categories of fees from each of the last two fiscal years.


	Fiscal 2003		Fiscal 2004		Fiscal 2005
	(in millions of yen)
Audit fees	(Yen)	83.88	(Yen)	95.36	(Yen)	128.95
Audit-related fees ⁽¹⁾		0.01		5.00		14.97
Tax fees ⁽²⁾		37.81		28.82		78.53
All Other fees ⁽³⁾		1.02		1.29		1.65

Total Fees	(Yen)	122.71	(Yen)	130.47	(Yen)	224.11

⁽¹⁾	Audit-related fees include fees relating to advisory services relating to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

⁽²⁾	Tax fees consist of fees relating to tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning services.

⁽³⁾	All Other fees include fees relating to updates of U.S. GAAP and SEC regulations to the Board of Corporate Auditors.

Our Board of Corporate Auditors has adopted guidelines for pre-approving all audit and non-audit services performed by our principal accountant and its affiliates in accordance with Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(A) under Regulation S-X. Under those guidelines, the Board of Corporate Auditors must pre-approve individual audit and non-audit services before they are provided by our principal accountant and its affiliates to us. Those guidelines also describe prohibited services that may never be provided. Our Board of Corporate Auditors does not use the provisions of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(B) under Regulation S-X for pre-approving audit and non-audit services.

None of the services described above in this Item 16C were waived from the pre-approval requirements pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

Item 16D. Exemptions from the Listing Standards for Audit Committees.

With respect to the requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 relating to listed company audit committees, which apply to us through Rules 4350(d)(3) and 4350(d)(2)(A)(ii) of the NASD Manual, we rely on an exemption provided by paragraph (c)(3) of that Rule available to foreign private issuers with boards of corporate auditors meeting certain requirements. For a NASDAQ-listed Japanese company with a board of corporate auditors, the requirements for relying on paragraph (c)(3) of Rule 10A-3 are as follows:

(a)

The board of corporate auditors must be established, and its members must be selected, pursuant to Japanese law expressly requiring such a board for Japanese companies that elect to have a corporate governance system with corporate auditors.

- 58 -

(b)

Japanese law must and does require the board of corporate auditors to be separate from the board of directors.

(c)

None of the members of the board of corporate auditors is elected by management, and none of the listed company’s executive officers is a member of the board of corporate auditors.

(d)

Japanese law must and does set forth standards for the independence of the members of the board of corporate auditors from the listed company or its management.

(e)

The board of corporate auditors, in accordance with Japanese law or the listed company’s governing documents, must be responsible, to the extent permitted by Japanese law, for the appointment, retention and oversight of the work of any registered public accounting firm engaged (including, to the extent permitted by Japanese law, the resolution of disagreements between management and the auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services for the listed company, including its principal accountant which audits its consolidated financial statements included in its annual reports on Form 20-F.

(f)

To the extent permitted by Japanese law:

•

the board of corporate auditors must establish procedures for (i) the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters, and (ii) the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters;

•

the board of corporate auditors must have the authority to engage independent counsel and other advisers, as it determines necessary to carry out its duties; and

•

the listed company must provide for appropriate funding, as determined by its board of corporate auditors, for payment of (i) compensation to any registered public accounting firm engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services for us, (ii) compensation to any advisers employed by the board of corporate auditors, and (iii) ordinary administrative expenses of the board of corporate auditors that are necessary or appropriate in carrying out its duties.

In our assessment, our Board of Corporate Auditors, which meets the requirements for reliance on the exemption in paragraph (c)(3) of Rule 10A-3 described above, is not materially less effective than an audit committee meeting all the requirements of paragraph (b) of Rule 10A-3 (without relying on any exemption provided by that Rule) at acting independently of management and performing the functions of an audit committee as contemplated therein.

Item 16E. Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

Trend Micro Kabushiki Kaisha

(“Trend Micro Incorporated”):

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Trend Micro Incorporated and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2004 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company restated its consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Nature of operations

Trend Micro Incorporated (the “parent company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively “the Company”) are primarily engaged in the development, production and sale of anti-virus software and providing management solutions for corporate computer systems. The Company develops its software in Japan, Taiwan, the United States, Germany, UK and China, and its products are marketed by sales subsidiaries throughout the world.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

The parent company and its subsidiaries in Japan maintain their records and prepare their financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan, and its foreign subsidiaries maintain their records and prepare their financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the respective countries of their domicile. Certain adjustments and reclassifications, including those relating to the tax effects of temporary differences, valuation of debt and equity securities and revenue on post-contract support, have been incorporated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These adjustments were not recorded in the statutory books of account.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(1) Restatements

The Company has historically disclosed maintenance costs as part of the “Research and development and maintenance” line item within operating expenses in the consolidated income statements. Details of these costs are disclosed in footnote 11. Starting in the fiscal year ended 2005, maintenance costs are included in costs of sales and prior years’ figures have been restated to reflect such amendment. In addition, customer support expenses, which were disclosed as a part of operating expenses through December 31, 2004, have been also included in cost of sales starting fiscal year ended 2005 and prior years’ figures have been restated to reflect such amendment. The nature of these costs is disclosed in footnote 20.

The following table summarizes the impact of the corrections to the statements of income for the two years ended December 31, 2004 (in thousands of Yen):

(2) Significant accounting policies:

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and those of its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated on consolidation.

Investments in affiliated companies (20 to 50 percent-owned companies) in which the ability to exercise significant influence exists are stated at cost plus the equity in undistributed earnings (losses). Net consolidated income includes the company’s equity in the current net earnings (losses) of such companies, after elimination of unrealized intercompany profit.

F-11

During the FY2005, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital shares of Trend Micro Braintree Inc. (former InterMute, Inc.,) and Trend Micro San Jose, Inc (former Kelkea Inc.) in purchase business combinations. These acquisitions are intended to expand our service offerings for advanced data privacy protection and advanced IP filtering and reputation services technologies. The aggregate purchase price was (Yen) 2,746,505 thousand and (Yen) 2,130,179 thousand has been recorded as goodwill. All of (Yen) 2,130,179 thousand goodwill was allocated to North America Segment. As of December 31, 2005, these subsidiaries were merged with Trend Micro Inc.(USA). With the merger with Trend Micro Braintree, Inc., the Company has contingent consideration remaining in the amount of USD10,500 thousands (equivalent of (Yen) 1,239,735 thousand as converted using the year end exchange rate of \118.07/US$) , subject to the predecessor company’s achievement of specified sales for the period beginning with the closing of the acquisition and ending twelve months thereafter. If this extra payment is made, the carrying amount of goodwill will be adjusted.

Translation of foreign currencies

All asset and liability accounts of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Japanese yen at year-end rates of exchange and all income and expense accounts are translated at rates of exchange that approximate to those prevailing at the time of the transactions. The resulting translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Foreign currency denominated receivables and payables are translated into Japanese yen at year-end rates of exchange and the resulting translation gains or losses are taken into current income.

Revenue recognition

The Company’s revenue is derived primarily from product revenue, which includes software product license and post-contract customer support services. Other revenue is composed of hardware revenue, royalty revenue and supplementary service revenue. Royalty revenue is comprised of fees from ‘Application service providers’ and ‘Internet service providers’ and supplementary services are comprised of fees from services based on ‘Premium support program’ and ‘Service level agreement’. Product revenue includes the type of limited sales of our products to other companies for inclusion in their products.

The Company licenses its software products under perpetual licenses. The Company sells its products and services via its direct sales force and through domestic and foreign intermediaries.

The Company applies the provisions of SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”, as amended by SOP 98-9 “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions” to all transactions involving the sale of software products and hardware transactions where software is not incidental. For hardware transactions where software is not incidental, the Company does not bifurcate the fee and apply separate accounting guidance to the hardware and software elements.

Revenue from the Company’s software product license and hardware where software is not incidental is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable, net of allowances for doubtful accounts and sales returns, is reasonably assured. Post-contract customer support services revenue which includes virus pattern updates, unspecified product version updates, telephone and online technical support and supplementary services revenue are deferred and recognized ratably over the service period. The Company allocates revenue to post-contract customer support services based on the fair value of the post-contract customer support services, which are determined based on separate sales of renewals to customers. Royalty revenue is recognized as earned unless collection of the related receivables is not assured in which case, it is recognized upon receipt of cash.

For all sales, the Company uses either a binding purchase order or signed license agreement as evidence of an arrangement. Sales through our intermediaries are evidenced by a master agreement governing the relationship together with binding purchase orders on a transaction-by-transaction basis.

F-12

At the time of the transaction, the Company assesses whether the fee associated with our revenue transactions is fixed and determinable and whether or not collection is reasonably assured. The Company assesses whether the fee is fixed and determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction. If a significant portion of a fee is due after our normal payment terms, which are 30 to 90 days from the invoice date, the Company accounts for the fee as not being fixed and determinable. In these cases, the Company recognizes revenue as the fees become due. The Company assesses collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the credit-worthiness of the customer. The Company does not request collateral from our customers. If the Company determines that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, the Company defers the fee and recognizes revenue at the time collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash.

The Company recognizes revenue from sales to intermediaries when products have been delivered to the intermediary. The Company primarily sells retail packages through intermediaries. After sale of a retail package, the Company may approve certain returns from intermediaries or end-users; therefore, the Company makes an estimate of returns from intermediaries or end-users based on its historical experience. The provision for estimated returns is recorded as a reduction to revenue at the time of the sale.

The sales rebates to intermediaries are recognized as a reduction of revenue. Measurement of the sales rebates is based on two types of rebate arrangements. In one arrangement, the amount of the rebate is calculated by multiplying fixed contractual rebate rate by the actual sales amount to intermediaries. In another arrangement, the rebate is paid only if the intermediaries achieve a targeted level of quarterly sales. The rebate rates vary depending on the level of targets and the matrix table of targets and rebate rate are agreed with intermediaries at the beginning of each quarter. The Company applies the provision of EITF 01-9 “Accounting for consideration given by a vendor to a customer or a reseller of the vendor’s products” to all transactions where rebates are paid.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash on deposit with banks and all highly liquid investments, with original maturities of three months or less, that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and are so near maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates.

Marketable securities and Security investments

Marketable securities and security investments consist of debt securities, equity securities and mutual funds. Debt securities, equity securities and mutual funds designated as available-for-sale are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable taxes. Debt securities designated as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost. The Company classifies “available for sale” debt securities with maturities longer than one year as Securities investments in investments and other assets. Individual securities classified as either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity are reduced to net realizable value for other than temporary declines in market value. Realized gains and losses, which are determined on the average cost method, are reflected in income.

Inventories

Finished products and raw materials are valued at the lower of weighted average cost or net realizable value. Work in process is stated at accumulated production costs.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized; minor replacements, maintenance and repairs are charged to current operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed on the declining-balance method for the parent company and on the straight-line method for foreign subsidiaries at rates based on estimated useful lives of the assets according to general class, type of construction and use.

F-13

Estimated useful lives range mainly from 3 to 6 years for office furniture and equipment, and mainly from 3 to 6 years for other properties.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets, which mainly consist of software development costs and purchased software, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic lives of the products, generally over twelve-month period for software development costs and a five-year period for purchased software and other intangibles.

Goodwill and other intangible assets

We account for goodwill in accordance with SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. SFAS 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of amortization for goodwill and at least an annual test for impairment. An impairment review may be performed more frequently in the event circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

SFAS 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives. Existing technology is amortized over 4 years.

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets and definite lived intangible assets to be held and used whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on the sum of expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized, based on the fair value of the asset.

Research and development costs and software development costs

All costs relating to research and development, to establish the technological feasibility of software products, are expensed as incurred. Under the Company’s software development process, technological feasibility is established on completing all substantial testing for the original English language version of the software. Local language versions of software, such as Japanese or Chinese, are produced from the English language version, by adding Japanese language or Chinese language related functions. Production costs for such local language versions of software product masters, incurred subsequent to the availability of original English language version software, are capitalized. Production costs of the local language software product masters, which include direct labor and overhead costs, are amortized to cost of sales using the straight-line method over the current estimated economic lives of the products, generally up to twelve months.

Management considers the Company’s capitalized software development costs to be fully recoverable from future product sales. Management estimates are based upon supporting facts and circumstances, and may be significantly impacted based upon subsequent changes in business conditions.

Advertising costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for its stock-based incentive awards in accordance with the intrinsic value method as per APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations. The Company complies with the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, as amended by SFAS No. 148.

F-14

In October 1995, SFAS 123 established a fair value based method of accounting for employee stock based compensation. If compensation cost for the stock options with warrants, and the stock options with Stock acquisition rights been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates, as prescribed by SFAS 123, the Company’s pro forma net income and net income per share would have been as follows:

See Note 2 (1) to these consolidated financial statements.

The fair values of the stock options with Stock acquisition rights were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants during the year ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005;


	2003	2004	2005
Expected life (Years)	2.64-3.07	3.04-3.08	3.06
Expected Volatility	68.79%-74.32%	52.41%-59.20%	47.69%-48.77%
Expected Dividend yield	0.00%	0.28%-0.32%	0.91%-0.94%
Risk-free interest rate	0.07%-0.31%	0.27%-0.32%	0.16%-0.47%

The fair value per share of options granted above during fiscal 2003, 2004 and 2005 were (Yen) 865-1,230, (Yen)1,682-1,788 and (Yen)1,203-1,225 ($10.20-10.38), respectively.

Income taxes

The current provision for income taxes is computed based on the pretax income included in the consolidated statement of income. The asset and liability approach is used to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred assets (including deferred tax assets and liabilities on net unrealized gain or loss on debt and equity securities) of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.

Net income per share

Basic net income per share is computed based on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share assumes the dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, or resulted in the issuance of common stock. Net income per share is appropriately adjusted for any stock splits or free distributions of common stock.

F-15

Free distribution of common stock

On occasion, the Company has made free distributions of common stock to its shareholders which have been accounted for either by a transfer of the applicable par value from additional paid-in capital to the common stock account or with no entry if free shares were distributed from the portion of previously issued shares accounted for as excess of par value in the common stock account in accordance with the Japanese Commercial Code. However, as a result of the amendments to the Japanese Commercial Code in 2001 where the concept of par-value of shares was eliminated effective from October 1, 2001, a free distribution of common stock to its shareholders is accounted for with no accounting entry. Under the Japanese Commercial Code, a stock dividend which is paid out of profits can be effected by an appropriation of retained earnings to the common stock account by resolution of the general shareholders’ meeting, followed by a free distribution with respect to the amount as appropriated by resolution of the Board of Directors.

Common stock issue costs

Common stock issue costs are directly charged to retained earnings, net of tax, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as the Japanese Commercial Code prohibits charging such stock issue costs to capital accounts, which is the prevailing practice in the United States of America.

Comprehensive income

Other comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are included in comprehensive income but are excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as adjustments to shareholders’ equity. The Company’s other comprehensive income primarily comprises unrealized gains or losses on debt and equity securities and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Market and credit risks

The anti-virus software market is characterized by rapid technological change and evolving industry standards in computer hardware and software technology. In addition, the markets for the Company’s products are highly competitive and rapidly changing. The Company could incur substantial operating losses if it is unable to offer products, which address technological and market place change in the anti-virus software industry.

Other financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts receivable. The Company invests primarily in time deposits, money market funds and marketable securities and places its investments with high rating financial institutions. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, if any, based upon the expected collectibility of accounts receivable.

Recent pronouncements:

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 “Inventory Costs — an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4”. This Statement amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). The provisions of SFAS No. 151 shall be effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The standard will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB revised SFAS No.123 “Share-Based Payment” This new SFAS No.123 focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that starts after June 15, 2005. We intend to adopt the provisions on FAS 123(R) effective January 1, 2006. The Company’s pro forma net income and net income per share for the year ended December 31, 2005 based on the fair values of the stock options with Stock acquisition rights, which were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model in

F-16

accordance with the original SFAS No.123 are disclosed in Note 2 (1) “Significant accounting policies—Stock-based compensation.” From next fiscal year, stock option expense, which will be calculated in accordance with revised SFAS No. 123 using the same option pricing model, will be recorded in our income statement.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 152 “Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions — an amendment of FASB Statements No. 66 and 67”. This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate, to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 04-2, Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions. This Statement also amends FASB Statement No. 67, Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects, to state that the guidance for (a) incidental operations and (b) costs incurred to sell real estate projects does not apply to real estate time-sharing transactions. The accounting for those operations and costs is subject to the guidance in SOP 04-2. This Statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The standard will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets — an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29”. The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. This Statement amends Opinion 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of this Statement shall be effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The standard will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Based on the Company’s incentive plans, the parent company issued unsecured bonds with detachable warrants and bought all of the warrants at the same time for the purpose of distributing such instruments to the directors and certain employees of the parent company and its subsidiaries as a part of their remuneration.

The Japanese Commercial Code restricts redemptions and extinguishments of these bonds in case the amount of each outstanding bond is less than the aggregate amount of the exercise price of each outstanding warrant. Therefore, in order to reduce interest costs, the parent company repurchased a part of the bonds through the market with an intention to hold the treasury bonds until they can be extinguished legally. However, as the repurchase transaction is deemed as redemption of the bonds in substance, the treasury bonds are offset with the bonds on the face of consolidated balance sheets. There was no repurchase transaction for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005.

15. Employee benefit plans

Pension and severance plans

The parent company has an unfunded retirement allowance plan (“Plan”) covering substantially all of its employees who meet eligibility requirements under the Plan. Under the Plan, employees whose service with the company is terminated are, under most circumstances, entitled to lump-sum severance indemnities, determined by reference to current basic rate of pay, length of service and conditions under which the termination occurs.

Additionally, the parent company has been a member of Kanto IT Software welfare pension plan, which is categorized as a multi-employer pension plan. Total pension expense for multi-employer pension plan was (Yen) 84,824 thousand in 2003, (Yen) 83,833 thousand in 2004 and (Yen) 116,081 thousand ($984 thousand) in 2005, respectively.

Under the plan, only employees who are 55 years or older with services for more than 15 years or who have been employed for more than 25 years at the retirement date are entitled to receive benefits. Benefits awarded under the plan are based primarily on current rate of pay and length of service.

Effective from July 2005, Taiwan subsidiaries had a defined contribution pension plan called Labor Pension Act (LPA). Some employees who had joined a defined benefit pension plan transferred to the new plan. New employees who joined the Taiwan subsidiary after July 2005 can choose the new pension plan only.

On March 31, 2003, in Japan, the Law to Partially Revise the Local Tax Law was promulgated, which introduced the pro forma standard taxation system on April 1, 2004. As a result of the change in tax laws, a new statutory income tax rate was reduced to 41.0%. For the parent company, this new statutory rate is effective from the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005. The Company recalculated deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences scheduled to be realized after January 1st, 2005. Since in 2004 all of the current portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities had an expected realization after the effective date of this new statutory rate, this recalculation composed the majority of “Effect of change in statutory rate” above.

	(Yen)	7,920,743	(Yen)	8,760,717	$	74,243

Deferred tax assets are included in the consolidated balance sheets as follows:


	December 31,				December 31
	2004		2005		2004
	Thousands of yen				Thousands of U.S. dollars
Current assets—Deferred income taxes	(Yen)	6,224,972	(Yen)	6,727,229	$	57,010
Investment and other assets—Deferred income taxes		1,695,771		2,033,488		17,233

Deferred tax assets	(Yen)	7,920,743	(Yen)	8,760,717	$	74,243

The valuation allowance mainly relates to deferred tax assets of consolidated subsidiaries with operating loss carry forwards for tax purposes that are not expected to be realized. The net changes in the total valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 were a decrease of (Yen) 31,237 thousand, an increase of (Yen) 22,615 thousand and a decrease of (Yen) 160,627 thousand ($1,361 thousand), respectively.

Operating loss carryforwards for tax purposes of consolidated subsidiaries at December 31, 2005 amounted to approximately (Yen) 799,252 thousand ($6,773 thousand) and are available as an offset against future taxable income of the subsidiary. These carryforwards won’t expire based on the tax law of the subsidiary. Realization is dependent on this subsidiary generating sufficient taxable income. Although realization is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets, less the valuation allowance, will be realized. The amount of such net deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could change in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period change.

At December 31, 2005, no deferred income taxes have been provided on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries not expected to be remitted in the foreseeable future totaling (Yen) 17,986,161 thousand ($152,425 thousand), as management of the Company intends to reinvest undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. The unrecognized deferred tax liabilities as of December 31, 2005 for such undistributed earnings amounted to (Yen) 1,664,793 thousand ($14,108 thousand).

Under the Japanese Commercial Code, the amount available for dividends is based on retained earnings as recorded in the books of the Company prepared in accordance with Japanese Commercial Code requirements. However, certain adjustments, not recorded in the Company’s books, are reflected in the financial statements as described in Note 2.

The Japanese Commercial Code provides that an amount equal to at least 10% of cash dividends and other distributions from retained earnings paid by the parent company and its Japanese subsidiaries be appropriated as a legal reserve. Prior to the amendments to the Japanese Commercial Code in 2001, no further appropriation was required when the legal reserve equals 25% of the stated capital. However, as a result of the amendments effective from October 1, 2001, no further appropriation is required when the aggregated amount of the additional paid-in-capital and the legal reserve equals 25% of the stated capital. The amounts of statutory retained earnings of the parent company available for the payment of dividends to stockholders as of December 31, 2004 and 2005 were (Yen)21,800,332 thousand and (Yen)30,234,531 thousand ($256,225 thousand), respectively.

Cash dividends during the three years ended December 31, 2005 represent dividends paid out during the periods. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any provision for the dividend of Yen) 56 per share, totaling (Yen) 7,509 million ($63,636 thousands) planned to be proposed in March 2006 in respect of the year ended December 31, 2005.

In September 2003, the Japanese Commercial Code was modified. The new Japanese Commercial Code allows the Company to purchase treasury stock for any reason at any time by the resolution of the Board of Directors up to the limitation of statutory retained earnings of the parent company available for the payment of interim dividends to stockholders. On March 25, 2004, the shareholders of the parent company approved to amend the articles of incorporation in order to apply this new rule.

The Company repurchased 33,792 shares as treasury stock and issued 109,000 shares of treasury stock in case of exercising stock warrants in 2005.

The Japanese Commercial Code permits a Company to distribute profits by way of interim or year-end dividends under certain conditions.

Total accumulated other comprehensive income as of December 31, 2004 and 2005 was a net debit balances of (Yen)322,115 thousand and a net credit balance of (Yen)2,117,485 thousand ($17,945 thousand), respectively.
