Reason for Revision

Looking at consolidated operating results for fiscal 2015, net sales are expected to be lower than the previously announced forecast, mainly based on the impacts of sluggish consumer spending in Japan and deceleration in the Chinese economy. However, operating income is now expected to exceed the previously announced forecast, mainly based on improving profitability in the materials business, which reflects falling prices for raw materials and fuel and sales mix improvements. The operating results forecasts were revised as, subsequently, ordinary income and profit attributable to owners of parent are now expected to exceed the previous forecasts.


Disclaimer Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

The operating results forecasts were formulated based on information obtainable as of the announcement date of this press release. Actual operating results may vary from the forecasts.
