1. Qualitative Information on Quarterly Financial Results

(1) Explanation of Operating Results

During the first two quarters of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022, the domestic total crude steel output in the steel industry, the Group's main customers, increased by 30.6% year on year, to 48.42 million tons. The global crude steel output from January to September 2021 also increased by 7.8% year on year, to approximately 1,461.20 million tons.

The Group's consolidated net sales for the first two quarters of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 increased 17.0% from a year earlier to ¥65,112 million, primarily due to a rise in demand for refractories accompanying the increased crude steel output both domestically and globally, as well as an increase in ceramic materials for semiconductor manufacturing equipment and electronic components.

Primarily due to an increase in net sales, the Group's consolidated operating profit for the first two quarters of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 increased 188.4% from a year earlier to ¥4,209 million, ordinary profit increased 104.6% to ¥4,557 million, and profit attributable to owners of parent increased 78.7% to ¥3,017 million.

Due to the application of accounting standards such as the Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition

(ASBJ Statement No. 29; March 31, 2020) (the "Revenue Recognition Standard"), net sales for the first two quarters of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 increased by ¥289 million, and operating profit and ordinary profit each increased by ¥46 million.

Operating results by business segment for the first two quarters of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 are as follows:

The net sales of each segment represent sales to external customers and do not include inter-segment sales or transfers. The amounts of segment profit are based on operating profit.

[Refractories]

Net sales in the Refractories segment increased 20.2% from a year earlier to ¥53,664 million, mainly due to the increased demand for refractories resulting from an increase in domestic and global crude steel output. Primarily due to the net sales increase, segment profit increased 461.5% from a year earlier to ¥2,943 million.

Due to the application of the Revenue Recognition Standard and other accounting standards, net sales increased by ¥289 million, and profit increased by ¥46 million.

[Furnace]

Net sales in the Furnace segment decreased 2.1% from a year earlier to ¥6,465 million, mainly reflecting reduced order receipts due to the timing between large-scale construction projects. Primarily due to cost reductions from improved efficiency in furnace construction, segment profit increased 15.2% from a year earlier to ¥254 million.

[Ceramics]

Net sales in the Ceramics segment increased 14.1% from a year earlier to ¥4,253 million (all-time high), primarily owing to expanded sales of ceramic materials for semiconductor manufacturing equipment and

2

electronic components. Primarily due to the increase in net sales, segment profit increased 94.3% from a year earlier to ¥696 million (all-time high).

[Real Estate]

Net sales in the Real Estate segment decreased 11.3% from a year earlier to ¥368 million. Segment profit decreased 13.2% from a year earlier to ¥298 million.

[Others]

Net sales in Others segment increased 27.9% from a year earlier to ¥359 million. Segment profit increased 47.2% from a year earlier to ¥19 million.

1. Explanation of Consolidated Financial Results Forecasts and Other Forward-looking Information
   As of the time this report is prepared, there has been no change to the Group's consolidated financial results forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022, released on May 12, 2021.
   Financial results forecasts may vary significantly due to factors such as fluctuations in demand for refractories associated with changes in crude steel output as well as market trends for refractory materials.
