    [Reason for Revisions]

    (1) Consolidated Earnings Forecasts
    As a result of a review of the selling period for some of the properties initially planned to be sold in the Revitalization Business in the period under review, the revenue forecast was revised to ¥61,470 million, a decrease of ¥6,360 million from the previous forecast.
    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, selling, general and administrative expenses and finance costs, etc. were lower than the initial forecast. As a result, the profit before tax forecast was revised to ¥10,130 million, an increase of ¥91 million, the profit for the year forecast was revised to ¥6,717 million, an increase of ¥18 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 net sales forecast was revised to ¥47,971 million, a decrease of ¥7,325 million from the previous forecast, the ordinary income forecast was revised to ¥6,711 million, an decrease of ¥878 million, and the net income forecast was revised to ¥5,253 million, an decrease of ¥198 million.
