Reasons for Amendment First half fiscal 2001: YU-GI-OH! OFFICIAL CARD GAME DUELMONSTERS series, card game products, which have marked dramatic increase in domestic sales since the previous fiscal year, have showed significant growth of sales with its popularity triggered by new cartoon TV program started in April. On the other hand, the sales of consumer-use software in Europe and the U.S. were stagnated with consumers reluctance to purchasing game software prior to the new game machine release. As a result, these relatively profitable sales of the card games, are expected to largely occupy the total sales and lead significant increase in ordinary income. Extraordinary income of 3,800 million yen has been generated along with the KCE Tokyo, Inc., our subsidiary, when it has completed its initial public offering, and net income will also be expected to be increase remarkably. Fiscal 2001: Along with the amendment of estimates for first half results, estimates for fiscal result are to be amended. In addition, both net sales and net income of the year are well expected to mark the record highest. 4.
