Revision of Earnings Projections for the Fiscal Year 2002,
and Amount of Investment Securities Write-down
(under Japanese GAAP)
Mitsubishi Tokyo Financial Group, Inc. (MTFG; President:
Shigemitsu Miki) today announced a downward revision of its Japanese
GAAP consolidated earnings projections for the fiscal year 2002, and
of the write-down amounts relating to investment securities held by
its 100% owned subsidiaries, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, Ltd. (BTM)
and The Mitsubishi Trust and Banking Corporation (MTBC) as of March
31, 2003. The revision in Japanese GAAP previously projected ordinary
profit is primarily due to the write-down of investment securities

Adjusted net business profit (sum of BTM and MTBC, under Japanese GAAP)
Adjusted net business profit for the FY 2002 is expected to be 680.0
billion yen, and is also expected to exceed the previously projected
level that was announced in November 2002. Credit related costs for
the FY 2002 are expected to be lower than the adjusted net business
profit.
Net losses on equity securities (consolidated, under Japanese GAAP)
Net losses on equity securities are expected to be 485.0 billion yen
primarily due to the write-down of domestic marketable equity
securities of 322.0 billion yen by BTM and MTBC resulting from the
weak domestic equity market. Net losses on equity securities of BTM
and MTBC include an aggregate amount of 116.0 billion yen of losses
relating to the sale of equity securities of MTFG. On a MTFG
consolidated basis, the sale of MTFG shares will be treated as a
capital transaction, and the losses will be eliminated from the
consolidated net losses on equity securities.

BTM and MTBC had plans to reduce their equity portfolios in an
aggregate amount of approximately 1.05 trillion yen in the FY 2002.
BTM and MTBC disposed of equity securities and received proceeds of
approximately 700.0 billion yen and 570.0 billion yen, respectively,
in the FY 2002, resulting in an aggregate amount of approximately 1.27
trillion yen.
