2. Reasons for the Amendments
We hereby amend our financial forecasts of both the consolidated and unconsolidated financial results as both net revenues and income for FY2009 are expected to decrease from the previously announced forecasts, due to factors such as the decreased number of units sold abroad and the unfavorable fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, arising from the rapid worldwide deterioration of the economy originating from the financial crisis in the United States.
