Reason of revision

Despite the impact of stronger yen, as the sales in Japan and overseas surpassed our previous projection and cost reduction including SG&A expenses was more than we had expected, FHI has revised the consolidated basis performance projection for the first half of the fiscal 2012 as described above.

The foreign exchange rates of the first half of the year were 80 yen per US$ (estimate rate was 81 yen per US$) and 114 yen per euro (116 yen per euro).

Furthermore, FHI will make announcement of the consolidated basis performance projection of the fiscal year ending March 2012 (from April 1, 2011 to March 31, 2012) on November 1, 2011 when we will release the financial results of the first half of the year after reviewing the business condition.


Note: Above mentioned projections are based on certain assumptions and our management’s judgment in light of currently available information, therefore actual results may differ from these projections.

End.
