      4. Reasons for Differences and Revisions

      5. Regarding consolidated performance for the first half of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016, aided by the strong real estate market, sales prices of real-estate assets owned by the Company exceeded initial plans in a consolidated subsidiary company in a real estate related business, and as a result, operating revenue, operating income, ordinary income, and net income attributable to owners of parent respectively surpassed the previous forecast.

        For the full year consolidated performance forecast, since liquidation of some business in a consolidated real estate subsidiary company is scheduled for completion, the distribution of residual assets and reversal for the allowance for doubtful accounts for related company loan receivables are expected. In addition, based on the recent business situation, both the full year consolidated and non-consolidated performance forecast exceeds the previous forecast as mentioned above.


        The results forecast above includes forward-looking statements about future performance of the Company, as of the announcement date of this document, which are based on assumptions and projections. Actual results may differ materially from the forecasts herein due to various factors. Moreover, the transition to the new system is scheduled to start from fiscal year 2016 (April 1, 2016 to March 31, 2017). In light of the accompanying depreciation expenses to be posted, the Company remains committed to achieving its performance targets.
