3. Reasons for the Amendments
Among the figures for the consolidated business performance for Fiscal Year
2008, net revenues and operating income are expected to increase from the
previously announced projected figures, due to factors such as an increase in
overseas sales, including in Indonesia, Vietnam and Latin America. The figures
for ordinary income and net income are expected to be as announced previously,
since non-operating expenses may increase due to the impact of currency exchange
losses from the rising yen.
As for the non-consolidated business performance, the figures for net revenues
and operating income are expected to increase from the previously announced
projected figure for the same reasons as those for the amendments to the
consolidated business performance stated above. Moreover, for the same reasons
as for the consolidated figures, the figure for ordinary income is expected to
be as announced previously. The figure for net income is expected to fall below
the previously announced projected figure reflecting the impairment loss of the
stock in a U.S. subsidiary whose financial position deteriorated. This
deterioration was caused by the rapid decrease of the subsidiary's sales volume
in the United States due to the impact of the U.S. market slump.
(Note) The prospective figures for the business performance stated above
are based upon information that is currently in the Company's possession and
upon certain premises that the Company deems reasonable. The Company's actual
future performance or other similar results could differ materially from those
discussed above, due to various factors.
