2) Reason for Differences

Our equity method affiliate company OCEAN NETWORK EXPRESS PTE. LTD., (Hereinafter referred to as ONE) that operates containership business, is expected to improve business forecast from the previously announced forecasts on May 10, 2021 due to robust cargo movement and spot freight rates. The Company revised our consolidated financial forecast for cumulative 2nd quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 (April 1,2021 to September 30, 2021) as well as full fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 (April 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022) consolidated financial forecasts with above reason. At the same time the Company reviewed business forecast other than ONE as well, and revised estimation of Ordinary income and Profit attributable to owners of the parent accordingly.
