This is a summary of our forecast for this fiscal year ending March 31, 2010.

With the dark clouds of the second half of the last fiscal year continuing to loom over the market environment, we would like to show our forecast figures for this period in the range. Although demand has been rebounding for some product markets since March due to progress in inventory adjustments, we are still not optimistic about the outlook for the global economy and our operating environment. At this stage, we expect to see a 10 to 22% drop in net sales partly as a result of foreign exchange. Our operating income is expected to remain flat or decline slightly as a result of measures taken to reduce fixed costs and our extreme cost reduction efforts as well as lower raw material prices and transportation costs. Net income is expected to increase since we do not foresee large extraordinary losses.
