1. Analysis of Operating Results (1). Qualitative Information Regarding the Consolidated Management Performance During the consolidated first half fiscal year under review, Japan saw a recovery in corporate earnings and capital expenditures, while personal consumption was also on track for a recovery. However, due to the affects of the rapidly strengthening yen and persistently challenging nature of the employment environment, the economy continued to stagnate. Amid this environment, the Dr. Ci:Labo Group launched its 3 rd Mid-Term Business Plan under the basic policies of aim to meet the increasingly sophisticated needs and values of customers. As the beginning of the plan, we made efforts to grow sales revenues focused on its Aqua-Collagen-Gel BI-HA-KU and Aqua-Collagen-Gel Enrich-Lift- EX products. A review of our sales channels shows that each segment posted positive results. The mail order segment continued to see a strong performance attributed to television commercial and newspaper ad campaigns as well as infomercials capturing large numbers of new customers and sales promotion measures aimed at boosting repeat purchases from existing customers, including discount fukubukuro (grab-bags) and other promotional events. In addition, our regular delivery service began carrying all of our products at the end of November, which served to significantly boost the number of users and contributed to a stable revenue stream. As a result, sales revenues of the mail order segment totaled 10,477 million yen, or a 21.9% increase YoY. In the face-to-face retail segment, sales and marketing activities were stepped up centered on sales promotion initiatives at department stores in conjunction with the revamping of GENOMER Eye Care Cream and efforts to expand sales of the Aqua-Collagen-Gel Series. However, we were unable to capture as many new customers as anticipated, indicating that the department store sector remains challenging. On the other hand, the GMS sector saw solid performance as various in-store events helped to boost customer traffic. For these reasons, face-to-face retail sales revenues rose slightly by 1.0% on a year-on-year basis to 2,180 million yen. In the wholesale segment, the launch of new in-store furnishings and fixtures meant to boost sales of the Aqua-Collagen-Gel series and the reinforcement of sales promotion activities in conjunction with TV commercials for Super-Moist-Gel and the launch of Astamoisture-Gel-S, a jointly developed product with a major Japanese retailer, all helped to boost sales revenues. In addition, our catalogue sales channel such as the co-op continued to perform well, which helped contribute to sales revenue growth. As a result, sales revenues of the wholesale segment totaled 4,405 million yen, or a moderate 12.2% increase YoY. Internationally, in our core market of Taiwan, television shopping continued to perform well, while sales revenues from the department store segment were somewhat sluggish as earnings fell below figures from the previous second quarter. In Singapore and Malaysia, where business is conducted through our sales agent partners, local sales are performing robustly, so shipments and sales posted an increase. In the United States, we continued to step up sales and marketing activities in order to cultivate a core product, which has served to steadily increase the number of our customers in the country. In addition, Christmas sales promotions in Hong Kong performed strongly. Accordingly, sales revenues from our international operations grew to 429 million yen, despite the slight erosion in earnings due to the stronger yen. This marked a 2.4% increase YoY. -5-

In terms of profitability, our operating margin was 29.5% (28.4% YoY), while our net profit margin for this quarter was 16.3% (15.9% YoY). Despite advertising expenses increasing YoY due to more active investments in mass media advertising, such as TV commercials, we were still able to secure a high profit margin for the consolidated second quarter under review due primarily to an increase in sales revenues and the strong performance of high margin products centered on the Aqua-Collagen-Gel series. Based on the above, sales revenues for the first half under review totaled 17,463 million yen, up 15.8% YoY, ordinary income was 5,144 million yen, up 20.5% YoY, and net profit for the quarter came in at 2,853 million yen, up 18.8% YoY. For a review of each business segment, see the following. <Cosmetics Business> In our cosmetic products business, the Aqua-Collagen-Gel series continued to act as a key driver of sales revenues for the Dr.Ci:Labo brand. We launched a limited edition 200-gram version of Aqua-Collagen-Gel Super Moisture and Aqua-Collagen-Gel Enrich-Lift- EX, which significantly contributed to sales revenues. Aqua-Collagen-Gel BI-HA-KU, which went on sale through each of our sales channels on August 18, 2010, also performed solidly. In addition, we brought BB PERFECT CREAM Shiny to market for a limited time, while the BB PERFECT CREAM series continued to receive strong support from our customers. As for the Labo Labo brand, we were able to enhance the brand s visibility through using TV commercials, while Super-Moist-Gel continued to drive sales revenues. In addition, Astamoisture-Gel-S, a jointly developed product with a major Japanese retailer that was recently released, also contributed to sales revenues. In terms of the GENOMER brand, we saw strong sales for our four core products of Night-Up Cream, Moisture Lotion, 3GF Essence and Morning Cream. The re-launch of recently revamped Eye Care Cream also became a factor that boosted sales revenues. For the dr.brandt brand, we enhanced operating efficiencies by closing two underperforming retail stores, which reduced sales revenues somewhat. Overall, the cosmetics business experienced an increase in sales by 14.5% year on year to 16,845 million yen. <Health Foods Division > The health foods business posted a solid performance underpinned by robust demand for health foods from our growing number of customers in their 50s and 60s. We are also working to enhance the competitiveness of our health food products by revamping several existing products. Overall, sales for health foods increased by 70.1% year on year to 618 million yen. -6-

(Change in Segment Classification) The Financial Accounting Standard for Segment Information Disclosure (ASBJ Accounting Standard No. 17; March 27, 2009) and the Application Guideline for the Financial Accounting Standard for Segment Information Disclosure (ASBJ Application Guideline No. 20; March 21, 2008) have been applied to accounting procedures beginning from the consolidated first quarter accounting period. To date, the business operations have been classed into three segments: the cosmetic products business, health foods business and beauty device and other businesses. Due to this accounting change, however, the beauty device and other businesses segment have been consolidated with the cosmetic products business segment, starting in the consolidated first quarter accounting period. This has resulted in two segments for disclosure: the cosmetic products business and the health foods business. For year-on-year data comparisons appearing in this earnings report, the data from the same quarter of the previous year has been converted to match these changes. (2). Qualitative Information Regarding the Consolidated Financial Statements 1Changes in the Financial Position (Assets) Total assets increased by 813 million yen compared to the previous consolidated fiscal year end. The principal reason for this was a 1,031 million yen rise in cash and deposits thanks to our solid business performance. (Liabilities) Total liabilities fell by 1,168 million yen compared to the previous consolidated fiscal year end. This was primarily attributed to 471 million yen decrease in accrued liabilities centered on advertising expenses and income tax payments that resulted in a 471 million yen reduction in accrued income tax liabilities. (Net Assets) Total net assets rose by 1,981 million yen compared to the previous consolidated fiscal year end. While 866 million yen in accumulated income was used to make a dividend payment, the rise in total net assets was mainly attributed to a 1,987 million yen increase in accumulated income due to net profit during the consolidated first half fiscal year totalling 2,853 million yen. 2Cash Flow Cash and cash equivalents (hereafter referred to as cash ) at the end of the consolidated second quarter accounting period under review totaled 11,767 million yen, an increase of 1,031 million yen compared to the previous consolidated fiscal year end. The status of each cash flow and the principal factors are described below. (Cash Flow from Operating Activities) Cash flows from operating activities totaled 2,135 million yen. While cash decreased due to a 2,699 million yen income tax payment, 419 million yen payment for accrued liabilities, 139 million yen payment for trade accounts payable and a 141 million yen increase in inventory assets, this figure was mainly attributed to booking previous quarter net profit of 5,096 million yen in earnings before taxes and other adjustments as well as realizing 253 million yen from account receivables. -7-

(Cash Flow from Investment Activities) Cash flows from investment activities totalled 237 million yen. This was mainly attributed to spending 179 million yen on intangible fixed assets and 53 million yen on tangible fixed assets. (Cash Flow from Financial Activities) Cash flows used by financing activities totaled 857 million yen. This was mainly due in part to payment of dividends totaling 860 million yen. (3). Qualitative Information Regarding the Consolidated Performance Forecast Earnings performance for the consolidated first half fiscal year under review was in line with expectations. At present, there are no changes to the full-year consolidated performance forecast announced at the presentation of financial results for the fiscal year ended July 2010 held on September 9, 2010. 2. Other information (1) Significant Changes in Subsidiaries None. (2) Simplified Accounting Treatment or Special Accounting Treatment Adopted We calculate tax expense by determining a reasonable estimate of our effective tax rate after applying tax-effect accounting to pretax net income for the fiscal year, which includes the second quarter under review, and multiplying quarterly pretax net income by said estimated effective tax rate. Income taxes are reported inclusive of income tax adjustments. (3) Changes in Accounting Principles, Processes, Disclosure Methods, etc. (i) Application of the Financial Accounting Standard for Asset Retirement Obligations The Financial Accounting Standard for Asset Retirement Obligations (ASBJ Accounting Standard No. 18; March 31, 2008) and the Application Guideline for the Financial Accounting Standard for Asset Retirement Obligations (ASBJ Application Guideline No. 21; March 31, 2008) have been applied to accounting procedures beginning from the consolidated first quarter accounting period. Due to this change, operating profits and ordinary profits have decreased by 1,827 thousand yen, while net profit for the quarter before taxes and other adjustments have decreased by 39,762 thousand yen. In addition, the change in asset retirement obligations due to this alteration in accounting standards is 58,152 thousand yen. -8-

(4) Notes on the going-concern assumption None (5) Segment Information [Segment Information] The Dr.Ci:Labo Group report segment focuses solely on the cosmetic products business and the health foods business. Since it accounts for a rather small percentage of all segments, however, the health foods business is considered to lack significant materiality for disclosure and therefore has been omitted. (Additional Information) The Financial Accounting Standard for Segment Information Disclosure (ASBJ Accounting Standard No. 17; March 27, 2009) and the Application Guideline for the Financial Accounting Standard for Segment Information Disclosure (ASBJ Application Guideline No. 20; March 21, 2008) have been applied to accounting procedures beginning from the consolidated first quarter accounting period.
