Q1.

How do the results between April and June compare with the internal plan?

A1.

Our business performance during April to June was almost as planned except for the moved up cost for structural reform. In April and May, our profit was slightly lower than planned because of appropriating sales accompanied by a package deal at the end of the previous year, and sales of products in inventory before releasing new products. But new products in June boosted sales.

Q2.

Color MFP share expanded during January to March. Was the result intended strategically or not?

A2.

Increasing MIF is very important in our business. We always keep it top of mind and that is how we got this result.

Q3.

What is your direction following structural reform?

A3.

We will explain our business direction at the announcement of the new mid-tern business plan.
Concerning structural reform, we will not end it in this fiscal year but will continue to consciously reform the structure.
