Reason for the revision

Net sales exceeded the previous forecast due to the earlier delivery of certain products and other factors, and operating income and ordinary income also exceeded the forecast as a result of the increase in net sales. However, net income fell below the previous forecast due to the recognition of an extraordinary loss related to an impairment loss arising from a review of the pharmaceutical synthesis business plan.
