3. Reasons for the revisions (The consolidated performance forecast)
Operating income and ordinary income are almost same as our forecast. However, net income (loss) is expected to fell below its previously announced (August 12, 2008) forecast, mainly due to additional transfer of provision for product warranty and decrease of estimated extraordinary gain.
(The non-consolidated performance forecast)
Operating income and ordinary income are almost same as our forecast. However, net income (loss) is expected to fell below its previously announced (May 13, 2008) forecast, due to the same reason for the revision of the consolidated performance forecast.
Also, the Company is formulating its full-year performance forecast and will announce it at the time of release of first half financial results for fiscal 2008.
Note: The above earnings estimates are forward-looking statements, which are based on our current assumptions in light of the information currently available to us and involve potential risks, uncertainties and other factors. Such risk, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results to be materially different from these estimates.
