Reasons for revision of outlook

The Company revised its consolidated outlook for the first half of FY2012 because it anticipates a recovery of freight rates in the containership business segment and a recovery in profits due to lower-than-anticipated bunker prices, compared to the business climate assumed in the previously announced outlook.

Note: The above future outlook is issued by the Company on the basis of currently available information as of the announcement date. Please note that the actual results may differ from this outlook due to various factors in the future.
