The forecasts for income at each level have been revised downward because iron scrap prices, the principal raw material, have remained at higher levels than initially assumed, while there is a time lag before improvements in selling prices are reflected in shipment unit prices. The full-year forecasts remain unchanged from the initial forecasts in light of the current uncertain outlook, including the situation in the Middle East and trends in scrap prices.
