Reference Results of the first six months of last fiscal year ended June 2013 | 6,566 | 1,807 | 1,951 | 1,241 | 55.07 |
(Note) Effective July 1, 2013, the company split its common stock 2 for 1 in accordance with the resolution of the Board of Directors dated May 27, 2013. The figures of "net income per share" are calculated as if the stock split took place at the beginning of the previous fiscal year.
Reason for the revision:
We expect to record sales for some products previously projected to be sold in later periods. We now forecast a sales amount of 5,476 million yen (an increase of 976 million yen from the last forecast) for the six months between July 1, 2013, and December 31, 2013. We forecast an operating profit of 853 million yen (compared to an operating profit of 50 million yen in the last forecast) for the same period because of the increased sales and some fixed cost being deferred to later periods. We also forecast an ordinary profit of 929 million yen (compared to an ordinary profit of 50 million yen in the last forecast) and a net profit of 614 million yen (compared to a net profit of 30 million yen in the last forecast) for the period due to the reasons above and foreign exchange profits.
Please note that we make no revision to our last forecast of consolidated operating results for the full year ending June 2014 as well as to our last forecast of dividends.
(Note) The forecast of financial results provided in this document is based on information available to the management at the time of announcement and on assumptions it has judged to be reasonable. Actual results may differ materially from the forecast due to various factors.
