2. Reasons for the Revision
For the first six months of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011, we expect that, on a consolidated basis, net sales will be in line with our previous forecast, despite higher-than-expected appreciation of the yen against the euro, as sales in the Chinese and Japanese markets outperformed our initial expectations. Furthermore, we expect operating income, ordinary income and net income to exceed our previous forecast, owing to an improved gross profit margin ratio and successful efforts to curtail selling, general and administrative expenses.
We are planning to publish our consolidated earnings forecast for the year ending March 31, 2011 at the time of the release of our financial results for the first six months of the year (scheduled for November 4, 2010).
Note:The forecasts above were made based on information available on the day of this release. Actual results may therefore differ materially from those described above due to various unforeseen factors and possible events in the future.
