Reason for the revision

The interim results exceeded the previous forecast due to initiatives including improvements in selling prices and cost reductions from stable machine operations and efficient production, despite the increase in raw material and fuel prices caused by the situation in the Middle East. The full-year forecast was revised to reflect the interim results, the outlook for the business environment in the second half, and the expected recognition of a gain on liquidation as the liquidation procedures for a consolidated subsidiary progress.

Details and amount of extraordinary loss

A gain on liquidation is expected to be recognized as the liquidation procedures for a consolidated subsidiary progress. The amount is not stated.
