3. Factors for the Revision
The reasons for the revision are a weaker yen than assumed in the initial business plan, and the fact that
the sales volume of computer tape in our information media division is expected to be higher than initially
planned. Hitachi Maxell will revise the performance forecast for the year as a whole with the release of
the interim statement on October 27.
