Reason for the revision

Net sales are expected to decline due to slower sales in Japan and Europe, the end of production for certain vehicle models, the transition to a single plant in the United States, and a change in the ownership interest ratio of the Guangzhou plant in China. Profit is expected to increase through rationalization measures, including workforce optimization, fixed-cost reductions, improved materials procurement, and higher productivity.
