  • • 1H and full-term forecast announced May 15 revised on October 15 due to product shipment delays in the 2Q, lower shipments of Full-HD (HD720 shipments increased) and an inventory write-down

  • • Actual results for 1H were almost the same as the estimate announced on Oct.15 except for net income because of extraordinary loss booked for accounts receivables of our overseas subsidiaries

Extraordinary Loss Taken on Accounts Receivable

  • An extraordinary loss of 2.13 bn yen was recorded in 2Q for 4.26 bn yen accounts receivable from Taiwan's Wintek Corporation, a customer of JDI's subsidiaries that has filed for corporate reorganization proceedings

  • Corporate reorganization proceeding in Taiwan may become a prolonged process. Since it is unclear how much Wintek can pay off receivables under a corporate reorganization plan, the remaining amount of accounts receivable will be addressed later

  • The distribution of products to a smartphone maker, one of our display users, was changed prior to the filing for corporate reorganization proceedings. Outstanding receivables from Wintek will not increase in future

  • For the purpose of collecting accounts receivable, negotiations with Wintek and JDI display users continue. JDI will strengthen its credit management of customers designated by our display users
