DOWA HOLDINGS CO., LTD. (“the Company”) hereby announces the differences between the first half consolidated financial forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 (April 1, 2021 to September 30, 2021) announced on August 6, 2021 and the actual results announced today. 
Moreover, the Company has revised its full year consolidated forecasts for fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 (April 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022), which were announced on August 6, 2021, in light of the recent performance. 

Details are as follows:

(2) Reasons for the Differences
In the first half of the current fiscal year, orders and sales for major products and services remained firm and, metal prices exceeded the level assumed in the previous forecasts announced on August 6, 2021. As these results, operating income was higher than the previous forecasts. 
In addition, the previous forecasts did not include the results and earnings forecasts of Fujita Kanko Inc., an equity method affiliate, as the earnings forecast for their fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 was not announced. On the other hand, the Company recorded the share of profit of entities accounted for using equity method of Fujita Kanko based on their first half results. Therefore, the results for the first half of the current fiscal year exceeded the previous forecasts for ordinary income and net income attributable to owners of the parent.

(2) Reasons for the Revisions

In the business environment in the third quarter and beyond, orders and sales of major products and services will continue to be firm. In the foreign exchange market and metal prices, the both will remain at the same level as at the end of the second quarter.
Taking into accounts the first half results of the fiscal year and above-mentioned business environments, the Company's consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 is expected to exceed the previous forecasts, mainly in the Nonferrous Metals segment.
Furthermore, regarding Fujita Kanko Inc., an equity method affiliate, the company has not been announced their earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, therefore this forecast does not include their financial results and the full year forecasts for the current fiscal year.
