2. Reasons for the revision

For the six months ending September 30, 2023, sales of THC catalysts and ultra-fine nickel powder are expected to decrease due to lower sales volume mainly caused by the economic slowdown in China, but profits are expected to increase compared to the previously announced forecast due to the progress of yen depreciation and other factors.

The consolidated financial forecast for the FY2023 remains unchanged at this point because we anticipate the yen will continue to depreciate, while carefully examining the sales of THC catalysts and ultrafine nickel due to the prolonged economic stagnation in China. If it becomes necessary to revise the FY2023 consolidated earnings forecast, we will promptly disclose the revised forecast.

Business performance forecasts and other forward-looking statements contained in this document are based on the information that is presently available to the Company and on certain assumptions that the Company considers reasonable. The Company makes no representations that those forecasts and other forward-looking statements are achievable. Actual results may differ materially from the forecasts due to various factors.
