Nidec Resumed Operations in Bang Pa-In

Nidec Corporation
announced on December 9 the current status of its manufacturing
operations in areas affected by the recent flooding in Thailand.

Nidec Component Technology (Thailand) Co., Ltd. resumed operations in Bang Pa-In on December 8.

As of today, all of the ten factories of the company and its
subsidiaries in the affected areas are in operation at either their own
facilities or alternative locations. We will continue our efforts to
further improve the utilization of the factories whose operations have
resumed and to bring the company’s other flood-stricken factories back
into operation to the earliest extent possible.

The exact amount of damage and the effect of the floods on the company’s
performance are being assessed currently. Nidec will continue to report
on any actual or potential impact on the company’s business performance
in a prompt manner.
