    [Reason for Revisions]

    (1) Consolidated Earnings Forecasts

    With the respect to the profit forecast, although there was an impact from the above-mentioned review of the selling period, the profit return from properties sold during this semester, exceeded the initial forecast. Also, general and administrative expenses and financial costs, etc. were lower than the initial forecast. As a result, the profit before tax forecast was revised to ¥9,010 million, an
    increase of ¥8 million, the profit for the year forecast was revised to ¥6,024 million, an increase of ¥97 million.

    (2) Non-consolidated Earnings Forecasts
    As for non-consolidated performance, with the same reason of adjustment to the forecast of consolidated operating results mentioned above, the revenue forecast was revised to ¥45,514 million, a decrease of ¥11,108 million from the previous forecast, the ordinary income forecast was revised to ¥7,027 million, an increase of ¥799 million, and the net income forecast was revised to ¥5,166 million, an increase of ¥931 million.
