2. Reasons for the Revisions

Regarding the business environment from the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, demand for main products and services of the Company is expected to be in line with the previous forecast. However, demand for certain automobile-related products and services is expected to decline. In addition, the Company has reviewed the outlook for costs, such as prices for raw materials and energy, and the assumptions for foreign exchange rates and metal prices, taking the recent situation into account.
As a result, the first half and full year consolidated financial forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023 are expected to exceed the previous forecasts for operating profit, ordinary profit and profit attributable to owners of parent, mainly in the Nonferrous Metals segment.
