2. Reasons for the Revisions

Regarding the business environment from the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, demand for automobile-related products and services, and waste treatment/recycling-related services of the Company is expected to be in line with the previous forecasts. However, demand for information/communication-related products and new energy-related products of the Company is expected to decline. In addition, metal prices are expected to remain slightly below the previous forecasts, and the yen is expected to weaken against the U.S. dollar. On the other hand, the cost of electricity, fuel and the other materials is expected to be much higher than the previous forecasts, on account of global rising in the energy costs or various materials costs.
As a result, the full year consolidated financial forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, is expected to be lower than the previous forecasts.
