Although operating income increased 4.1% thanks to improved gross margin rate and reductions in SGA costs, the net income decreased 80.9% to \17 million, because of factors such as recorded extraordinary loss and the foreign exchange loss. Both sales and income performed over the original forecast. ◆ Improved profit in Plastic business Although it was improved after second quarter, sales in Precision Springs and Plastics (mainly in OA equipment and automotive market) decreased due to the impact of the earthquake.

12. 11 2-2 Forecast for FY ended March 2012 ◆ Decreased in both net sales and income for the full FY2012 Although net sales and income resulted better than original forecast in 1st Half, income in the 2 nd Half of FY2012 is expected to be decreased due to decreased net sales in Precision Spring and Plastic business. Downward revision as the full FY2012 will be expected due to increased loss from the delay in downsizing Hinge business. ◆ Slow down in Precision Spring business from the 3Q Less orders from tablet terminator or OA equipment markets are expected both in domestic and overseas from the 3rd quarter, since customers’ production adjustment. In addition, a decrease in sales at our subsidiary in Thailand which suffered from the historical flood and customers’ production adjustment both in domestic and overseas operations given the parts shortage are expected. Thus we forecasted decrease of \500 million in net sales and \150 million in operating income. ◆ Extraordinary loss from share exchange will be recorded Although we will record an extraordinary loss of \122 million from the share exchange to make Strawberry Corporation a wholly-owned subsidiary of Advanex in the 3 rd quarter, we also expect to record an extraordinary income from the change in employee pension plan. As a result, the influence will be reduced.
