2) Main Reasons for the Upward Revision |
|
The upward revision of the forecasts is due mainly to higher sales than the Company originally anticipated, reflecting sales expansions for Motorcycles, automobile engines, all-terrain vehicles in North America, outboard motors and products sold in the IM (Intelligent Machinery) business, centering on surface mounters.
Actual consolidated business results for the first half of fiscal 2005, ending December 31, 2005, are still being compiled. The figures are scheduled to be announced on July 28, 2005. |
