2. Reasons for revision to forecasts
The first-half consolidated results for the current fiscal year are expected to exceed the forecasts for revenue, operating income, and ordinary income originally announced on April 26, 2007 due to increases in unit sales volume, principally in overseas markets, and to favorable effects stemming from the weaker yen. The net income forecast is left unchanged because of expected increases in consolidated taxes.
The Company makes no changes to its consolidated forecasts for the full fiscal year at the current time because of uncertainties about domestic sales, as well as about currency movements and raw material costs.
