1. Qualitative Information

As of the date of disclosure of this quarterly earnings report, the review procedures for quarterly financial statements in accordance with the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act are in progress.

  1. Operating Environment

In the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, despite signs of improvement in China, the global economy experienced a rapid drop in internal and external demand and the growth rate decreased significantly due to the spread of infections of COVID-19 in major developed countries, such as the U.S., and emerging and developing countries excluding China. However, the global economy appears to have made it out of its worst period and be moving toward recovery as the economy has bottomed out with the resumption of economic activities.

In the U.S., consumer spending, which took a major hit due to the lockdown at the start of the period, showed signs of bottoming out due to the subsequent resumption of economic activities, economic measures, etc., and employment is gradually improving. On the other hand, there appears to be a second wave of infections and there are concerns over its impact. In Europe, although economic activities have resumed due to the easing of restrictions against going outside and the effects of economic measures are gradually appearing, the situation seems to be improving at a sluggish pace. In Japan, consumer spending has bottomed out due to the lifting of the state of emergency and economic measures and the economy is expected to improve in the future. However, the pace of improvement is likely to be gradual. In emerging countries, manufacturing activities in China continue to resume, and the economy is recovering with signs of a pickup in consumption and investments. On the other hand, there are concerns regarding the economic outlook of Russia and Brazil as they are suffering from a fall in the price of crude oil, and Brazil in particular is experiencing a serious outbreak of infections.

Considering that COVID-19 continues to spread depending on the country and region, careful attention should be given to the possibility that the global economy may deteriorate again.

5. Formerly, Core Operating Cash Flow was calculated by eliminating the sum of the "Changes in Operating Assets and Liabilities" from "Cash Flows from Operating Activities" as presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. From the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, it is calculated by additionally deducting the "Repayments of lease liabilities" as presented in the "Cash Flows from Financing Activities". In accordance with this change, Core Operating Cash Flow for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019 has been restated.

6. In order to accelerate our multifaceted, flexible initiatives that combine various kinds of knowledge from different business domains, the business of next-generation electric power was transferred from the "Machinery & Infrastructure" segment to the "Energy" segment, in conjunction with the creation of the Energy Solutions Business Unit in "Energy" segment, from the three-month period ended June 30, 2020.

In accordance with this change, the segment information for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019 has been restated to conform to the current period presentation.

(9) The Fire Incident of Intercontinental Terminals Company LLC

On March 17, 2019 (US time) a fire began at the Deer Park tank terminal of Intercontinental Terminals Company LLC ("ITC"), a wholly owned U.S. subsidiary of Mitsui & Co., Ltd. The Deer Park tank terminal is located in the outskirts of Houston, Texas. The fire partially damaged tanks owned by ITC. ITC has resumed its operation after discussions with related authorities. Harris County Fire Marshal's Office released its final report with respect to the fire incident on December 6, 2019 (US time) and the report classified the fire as accidental, while not specifying the cause of the fire. The cause of the fire is still under investigation by other relevant authorities.

The profit and loss related to this incident recognized in the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the outstanding balance of related provision as of June 30, 2020 are immaterial.

There are multiple lawsuits that have been brought against ITC in relation to this incident. These lawsuits are at the early stages and the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits is not expected to have significant impact on our consolidated financial position, operating results and cash flow.

(10) Taxation on Capital Gain in India

Earlyguard Limited ("EG"), a UK subsidiary of Mitsui & Co., Ltd., received a tax payment notice dated January 21, 2020 which requested payment of 24 billion Indian Rupees (¥37 billion) from Indian tax authority.

The taxable income of this notice is the capital gain on sales of Finsider International Company Limited (a UK company that owned 51% of Sesa Goa, an Indian iron ore company) shares held by EG in April 2007. Although EG treated the capital gain properly according to the tax laws at that time, the tax payment notice has been issued.

The company does not expect a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, operating results and cash flow at this stage.
