Accordingly, NYK Line plans to conduct the reverse stock split at a ratio of 10 ordinary shares to one ordinary share effective from October 1, 2017. The forecast of consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 calculated based on conditions prior to the reverse stock split is as follows.

      Forecast of consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 Profit attributable to owners of parent per share

      Interim (cumulative total): ¥0.59 Full fiscal year: ¥2.96

      Foreign exchange rate: (for the second, third and fourth quarter) ¥110/US$, (full year) ¥110.37/US$ Bunker oil price: (for the second, third and fourth quarter) US$340/MT, (full year) US$336.68/MT

      The above forecast is based on currently available information and assumptions that NYK Line deems to be reasonable. NYK Line offers no assurance that the forecast will be realized. Actual results may differ from the forecast as a result of various factors. Refer to pages 2-7 of the attachment for assumptions and other matters related to the forecast.

      1. Qualitative Information on Quarterly Results (1) Review of Operating Results

      In the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 (April 1, 2017, to June 30, 2017), consolidated revenues amounted to ¥521.7 billion, up from ¥470.7 billion in the same period of the previous fiscal year. NYK Line posted operating profit of ¥3.5 billion compared with an operating loss of ¥10.9 billion in the first quarter of the previous fiscal year, and recurring profit of ¥10.2 billion, compared with a recurring loss of ¥9.9 billion. Likewise, profit attributable to owners of parent amounted to ¥5.3 billion, compared to a net loss of

      ¥12.7 billion in the same period of the previous fiscal year.

      Overview

      Conditions in the maritime shipping market were mixed during the first quarter under review. While shipping alliances were reorganized and total shipping capacity increased in the container shipping market, spot freight rates were mostly favorable on the back of brisk shipping traffic. Shipping traffic was also brisk in the dry bulk shipping market, however, excess tonnage was not eliminated as the scrapping of old ships was slow and new vessels were constructed. Consequently, the market recovery remained moderate. Among the Group's non-shipping businesses, the Logistics business faced a sluggish market due to persistently high cost prices, while the Air Cargo Transportation segment benefited from busy shipping traffic overall.

      Against that backdrop, results substantially improved and profits were posted during the first quarter of the current fiscal year. Consolidated revenues were up ¥50.9 billion, or 10.8%, compared with the same period of the previous fiscal year, while operating profit increased ¥14.5 billion, recurring profit increased ¥20.2 billion, and profit attributable to owners of parent jumped ¥18.1 billion year on year.

      Changes in the average exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and yen as well as the average bunker oil price during the first quarter of the current and previous fiscal years are shown in the following tables.
