(Note) Revised from most recently released earnings forecast: Yes
We revised our earnings forecast for FY2018 to reflect our assessment that net sales will underperform initial forecasts largely due to a focus on profitability at overseas Group companies in our Oils and Fats Division and the impact of currency fluctuations at overseas Group companies in our Confectionary and Bakery Ingredients Division. In light of earnings for the cumulative second quarter and current earnings trends, we made no changes to initial forecasts.
