Reason for the revision
We now forecast that we can record sales in the second quarter for some of the products we previously expected to sell in the third quarter. As a result, we revise our sales forecast for the first six months of the current fiscal year to 6,780 million yen, an increase of 1,480 million yen from the previous forecast. We also revise our income forecast for the same period as follows: 960 million yen in operating profit (up 510 million yen from the previous forecast),
965 million yen in ordinary profit (up 515 million yen) and 6 million yen in profit attributable to owners of parent (up 350 million yen). Please note that this revision pertains only to the forecast for the first six months of the current fiscal year and does not affect our forecast of consolidated operating results for the full year ending June 30, 2016.
(Note) The forecast of financial results provided in this release is based on information available to the management at the time of announcement and on assumptions it has judged to be reasonable. Actual results may differ materially from the forecast due to various factors.
