Reason for the revision

The revision was made because each profit measure is expected to exceed the previous forecast due to higher revenue, reductions in fixed costs, an improvement in foreign exchange gains and losses accompanying the yen's depreciation, and the recognition of an extraordinary gain from the sale of strategically held shares.

Details and amount of extraordinary loss

An extraordinary gain from the sale of strategically held shares was recognized. The amount is not disclosed.
