Reasons for the Revision
We had expected the business environment for the JR-West Group to remain difficult for longer as a result of the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred in March 2011. However, because revenue from railway operations, centered on the Shinkansen, has continued to exceed initial forecasts, we are revising our interim and full-year forecasts for operating revenues, operating income, recurring profit and net income for the subject fiscal year on both a consolidated and non-consolidated basis.
Forecasts are based on information available as of the date of this document. Actual results may vary from forecasts due to a variety of factors.
