  2. Reasons for the Amendments

Consolidated net sales, operating income and ordinary income are expected to be lower than previously announced forecast mainly due to a sharp downfall of commodity prices including petroleum and steel products.

However, net income attributable to owners of the parent company is expected to exceed the previously announced forecast due to extraordinary income from the sale of fixed assets and reduction of income taxes (ref. "Notice Concerning Transfer of Fixed Assets, Extraordinary Income and Extraordinary Loss" dated February 23, 2016), although additional loss on revaluation of investment securities has been posted at the end of the fiscal year.


(Note)

The above forecasts reflect assumptions and prospects based on the information currently available.

They are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from this information.
