Revenue for the cumulative second quarter is expected to exceed the plan because the number of contracts for rent debt guarantees, medical expense guarantees and nursing care expense guarantees in the guarantee business remained on track. Although outsourced service fees increased with the growth in rent debt guarantee contracts, all profit figures are expected to exceed the initial plan because bad debt expenses were lower than expected and other cost increases were kept within a certain level. The full-year forecast reflects first-half progress.
