(Financial forecast and Dividend forecast)

Net sales and Operating profit of the consolidated financial forecast for full year for FY2020, have been calculated based on the assumption that, although there are differences in business and regions, the Group's performance will gradually recover from the unfavorable business performance in the 2nd quarter of FY2020, along with the gradual resumption of economic activity, .

Among the consolidated financial forecast figures for full year for FY2020, Profit before tax, Profit for the period and Profit for the period attributable to owners of the parent, and the dividend forecast will be announced when reasonable forecasts become available since additional expenses that may arise from the implementation of restructuring measures and other measures are still unknown at present.

The following are the accounting standards applied by the Group from fiscal year 2020, in compliance with each transitional provision. The effect of the application of the following standards on the Group's Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements is immaterial.

Accounting Estimates and Errors

October 2018)

"Operating profit" in the Group's Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Profit or Loss is an indicator that facilitates continuous comparisons and evaluations of the Group's business performance. Main items of "other income" and "other expenses" are foreign exchange gains and losses, gains on sale of non-current assets, losses on disposal of non-current assets, impairment losses and expenses for restructuring programs. "Business profit" includes all income and expenses before finance income, finance costs and income tax expenses.

The Group calculated income tax expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020, based on the estimated average annual effective tax rate.

(Changes in Accounting Estimates)

In preparing the Group's Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, judgments, estimates and assumptions are made that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Therefore accounting estimates could differ from actual results.

Estimates and assumptions that have a significant effect on the amounts recognized in the Group's condensed interim consolidated financial statements are in principle the same as the preceding fiscal year.

Estimates and their assumptions are reviewed continuously. The effect of reviewing estimates and assumptions are recognized in the period in which those estimates and assumptions were reviewed and in future periods.

Regarding the impact of the spread of COVID-19, although there are differences in business and regions, the Group makes accounting estimates and judgments regarding impairment of assets such as property, plant and equipment, goodwill, intangible assets, and also recoverability of deferred tax assets, based on the assumption that Group's performance will gradually recover from the unfavorable business performance in the FY2020 2nd quarter, with the gradual resumption of economic activity.

(Segment Information)

The Group's reportable segments are components of the Group for which discrete financial information is available, and whose operating results are reviewed regularly by the Group's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess performance.

The Group had four in-house companies by product and service: Building & Industrial Glass, Automotive, Electronics and Chemicals. Each in-house company operates worldwide, formulating comprehensive domestic and overseas strategies for its products and services.

Building & Industrial Glass and Automotive share the same float glass manufacturing facilities (glass melting furnace) etc., which are the largest assets and situated the highest upstream in the supply chain. The two in- house companies share assets and liabilities, and ratio of utilization is influenced by fluctuations of demand and supply. Considering these situations, it is difficult to divide financial statements for the two in-house companies. Therefore, the Group prepares the financial statements of Building & Industrial Glass and Automotive as the Glass segment. In addition, decisions on assigning management resources are closely tied to the results of each business and inseparable from their performance evaluation. Therefore, with the participation of presidents of both in-house companies, the Group has established a "Glass Segment Council," which primarily functions to maintain synergies and maximize overall production in the Glass segment, and collaborates to maximize profits for the Group. Based on these circumstances, the Group reports the Glass segment as one.

Thus, the Group has three reportable segments: Glass, Electronics, and Chemicals. The main products of each reportable segment are as follows.

Reportable segment

Main products

Float flat glass, Figured glass, Polished wired glass, Low-E glass, Decorative glass,

Glass

Fabricated glass for architectural use (Heat Insulating/shielding glass, Disaster-resistant/Security glass,

Fire-resistant glass, etc.), Automotive glass, Cover glass for car-mounted displays, etc.

LCD glass substrates, OLED glass substrates, Specialty glass for display applications,

Electronics

Display related materials, Glass for solar power system, Fabricated glass for industrial use,

Semiconductor process materials, Optoelectronics materials, Printed circuit board materials,

Lighting glass products, Laboratory use ware, etc.

Polyvinyl chloride, Vinyl chloride monomer, Caustic soda, Urethane, Fluorinated resins, Water and oil

Chemicals

repellents, Gases, Solvents, Pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediates and active ingredients,

Iodine-related products, etc.
