Medium-term Management Strategy-3 |
|
|
Strategy for Related Business - 1:
Conversion of business conditions for Apartment Total Support Business |
Consideration of all services provided to apartment owners as consistent business
operation, and converting Leopalace Owners' Mutual Insurance System to business
operation
In order to resolve uncertainties relating to the risks of managing apartment units for apartment owners and to be able to promise to deliver stable
management of apartment units over long periods of time, we are implementing our master sublease system that ensures rent income and the cooperative
program (Leopalace Owners' Mutual Insurance System) that guarantees apartment building maintenance and administration. The master sublease system is
implemented as the basic structure of our Leasing Business and the system itself is incorporated into the business. The Leopalace Owners' Mutual Insurance
System on the other hand, is a system set up as a contingency to deal with unexpected situations and was operated separately from our business operations.
However, in the future we intend to consider all services provided to apartment owners as a business comprised of a series of consistent services and we aim
to centrally manage all our management resources (personnel, properties, funds and information). We are currently preparing to convert the Leopalace
Owners' Mutual Insurance System for the Apartment Total Support Business in order to incorporate the business as a part of corporations subject to
consolidated accounting, for the fiscal year ending March 2009. |
Strategy for Related Business - 2:
The "LEO-REIT" Business through strategic real estate investments |
Launching gLEO-REITh Business aiming for 7% rate of return on operations through
strategic real estate investments of approximately \100 billion
We have hotels at seven locations nationwide (with one opening in Hakata in April 2007) and high-rise apartment buildings, gLeopalace Flath situated at 14
locations, to form synergic effects by complementing the nationwide network of our core business. We will coincide our timing with the exit of the Japanese
economy from deflation and in the future conduct strategic real estate investments amounting to approximately \100 billion by the fiscal year ending March
2011, to fulfill and substantiate our business infrastructure, as well as to improve the quality of our fixed assets.
In addition to hotels and high rise apartment buildings, situated on sites near railway stations, the subject of our investments will include retail spaces of our
core business (Apartment Construction Subcontracting Business and Leasing
Business) as well as for establishing and maintaining the facilities of our strategic
business (Silver Business and Broadband Business), even for the fulfillment of
venues for various events. Our policy is to implement all these activities as
corporation-wide undertakings. Furthermore, facilities arising from these
investments will be converted into real estate securities as much as possible and
launched as our gLEO-REITh Business operation, with the aim of securing operational
revenue of 7%.
¡ Summary of strategic real estate investments
œ Investment scale: Approximately \100 billion(by fiscal year ending March 2011)(about 50% of operating cash flow)
œ Investment standard: ROI of about 7% |

| Strategy for Related Business - 3: Domestic hotel business |
Increasing synergic effects with core business by increasing
the number of locations as well as part of strategic
real property investments
In April 2007 we opened gHotel Leopalace Hakata,h our eighth domestic hotel location. Knowhow
derived from apartment management is being used effectively in our Domestic Hotel
Business. The hotels are available in the ordinary mode of accommodation, for people on tours
or business trips, as well as for long-term stays with a gMonthly Leopalace Flath contract, which is
the same as the contract for our apartment leasing. Furthermore, our core business locations
are also installed inside these hotels and they are utilized as a sales center for these areas.
We intend to continue increasing the number of locations as needed in the future, through the
aforementioned strategic real estate investments and aim to create synergic effects, such as
contributing to the enhancement of community based activities for core business.

| Strategy for Related Business - 4: Overseas Resort Business |
Increasing revenue at Overseas Resort Business starting on a course for stable growth
Our Overseas Resort Business (in Guam), implemented through our wholly-owned
subsidiary, MDI Guam, started on a stable course after completing a series of
infrastructure improvements by 2005 and negotiating business in collaboration with
major travel agencies, as well as developing our own projects, which resulted in an
increased trend of drawing customers. The average availability of Leopalace Resort
units during the fiscal year ended March 2007 was 59.9%, with a room occupancy
totaling 136,258 rooms, with 28.1% being used by our apartment owners and 2.7%
being used by our shareholders. In addition to increasing synergic effects with core
business, we are focusing our sights on the development of silver facilities as
options for long-term stays.
