These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Sales of electrical components were strong, driven by increased demand centered on HEV applications. Sales of electronic components increased due to factors including customers building up inventories. The weaker yen and the pass-through of higher precious-metal prices into product prices also contributed to higher revenue and earnings. The upward revision to the full-year forecasts primarily reflects higher first-half sales, while the second-half forecasts incorporate higher material and energy prices resulting from the deteriorating situation in the Middle East, upfront investment costs for electrical components, and the impact of yen appreciation.
