2. Reasons for revision
According to the previous forecast for the full fiscal year, the Ceramic Component segment was expected
to grow in sales after the second quarter, recovering from a slowdown in the first quarter influenced by
inventory adjustments from the last year-end.
While sales have recovered for the second quarter, sales growth will gradually slow down against the
previous forecast due to uncertainty in the semiconductor-equipment market.
Consequently, sales forecast is revised as above; forecasts for operating income and net income are also
revised according to the downward revision of sales forecast.
