The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.

Reason for the revision

A portion of the outperformance in the cumulative consolidated first-quarter period has been reflected. An increase in sales volume has been factored in because the impact of production constraint risks associated with the situation in the Middle East is expected to be limited. The positive impact of changing the forecast exchange rate in the direction of a weaker yen has also been reflected. At the same time, the forecasts incorporate the risk that soaring component prices will exceed expectations.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Because first-quarter results exceeded expectations, a portion of the outperformance has been reflected in the full-year forecasts. The risk of production constraints in the Printing and Solutions business arising from the situation in the Middle East is currently expected to be limited, and an increase in sales volume has been factored in. The forecast exchange rate has also been changed in the direction of a weaker yen. At the same time, the forecasts incorporate the risk that soaring component prices will exceed expectations.
