  5. Reason for revision

Severe economic conditions in Japan and U.S.A., and a decreased demand in the IT sector, including cellular-phones and PCs negatively affected our business performances. Accordingly, our sales and profit targets for the first half of FY 2001 have been significantly revised downward against the original forecasts.
