2. Background of revision

The Group has revised its previously announced consolidated earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 upward because the results in the mainstay Watches and Machine Tools segments were better than expected, taking into consideration the financial results for the nine months under review, although there is still no prediction that COVID-19 will be contained or will subside any time soon.

The foreign exchange rates in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year under review and thereafter are assumed to be 105 yen against the U.S. dollar and 125 yen against the euro.
