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

Because increased railway usage and steady performance in the shopping-centre business and other operations are expected to result in revenue, operating income, ordinary income and net income attributable to owners of the parent exceeding the previous forecasts on both a consolidated and non-consolidated basis.
