Reason for the revision

Although sales volumes for thick steel plate, the company's main product, are expected to remain generally in line with expectations during the six months ended the second quarter, selling prices are expected to fall below expectations because the penetration of price revisions is taking longer than anticipated. Accordingly, net sales and earnings are expected to fall short of the initial forecasts.
