The long GRB 090418B 
was detected by the Suzaku Wide-band  All-sky Monitor (WAM)
which covers an energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV at 08:54:21.299 UT (=T0).
The observed light curve shows a multi-peaked structure
starting at T0-3 s, ending at T0+35 s,
with a duration (T90) of about 29 seconds.

The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was 1.22 (-0.14, +0.06) x10-5 erg/cm2.
The 1-s peak flux measured from T0+32 s was 2.13 (-0.58, +0.35) photons/cm2/s 
in the same energy range.

Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from T0+14 s to
T0+52 s is well fitted by a single power-law with a photon index
of 2.09 (-0.20, +0.22) (chi2/d.o.f = 13/17).

All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level,
in which the systematic uncertainties are not included.
