Reasons for the Amendments With regard to the figures of non-consolidated interim business performance, due to the increase in the production of automobiles and streamlining efforts, net sales and ordinary income are expected to increase JPY 2,100 million and JPY 800 million, respectively. In connection with enforcement of the Defined Benefit Pension Plan Law, on July 25, 2002, KAW received approval for exemption from the obligation of the future benefit payment regarding substituted portions of its employee pension funds. Due to such exemption, the retirement benefit obligation will expire and extraordinary profit of JPY 8,265 million will be recorded. As a result, the interim net income is expected to increase JPY 4,900 million. The figures of consolidated interim business performance, including net sales, ordinary income and interim net income, are expected to increase as a result of the above reason for the increase in the figures of non-consolidated interim business performance. In line with the above increase in the interim figures, the prospective figures for non-consolidated business performance and consolidated business performance, including net sales, ordinary income and net income, are expected to increase correspondingly.
