This slide shows our view of the current market. When China devalued the renminbi, the market responded very negatively to the slowing Chinese economy. Some say that smartphone sales won't surge, but, as I've always said, I believe that sales of Minebea products will grow as more high-value-added consumer products are sold. It's true that the Chinese economy is losing some steam, but if you look at the financial results of Mercedes-Benz and BMW, or automobile sales in the U.S., it looks like demand is still pretty strong in the global market. As far as Minebea is concerned, the changes in the Chinese economy haven't hurt our bottom line. We launched a new LED backlight product sometime around July of last year and had no choice but to go into full production with it because the competition had a problem getting its production lines going. Although we were initially aiming to supply 70% of this year's total, there was a temporary delay in getting the production for a certain model off the ground and I'm sorry for the tremendous concern that has caused. Production has been in full swing every month since September. Now that Minebea products have been adopted by Chinese smartphone manufacturers, including Huawei and Xiaomi, for their high-end LCD smartphones, production is sure to pick up. That's why I don't expect us to lose any ground to the competition. The only thing we are not sure about concerning smartphones is how and where they are really selling. We don't have a clear picture because we don't sell smartphones. Judging from the recent indication we have received from customers, demand seems to be rather robust.
