1.2 Background to the Revision of Consolidated Forecast
Consolidated sales in each business are forecast to be same or slightly lower compared with the forecast announced on November 6, 2001. Total sales will decrease by roughly 6% over the previous year.

Consolidated operating income is revised downward from the forecast announced last November and will decrease by 70% over the previous year.

Reasons for this revision are
1)the worsening of the cost rate caused by pressures to reduce prices in the Building Automation business,
2)the decrease in income in the Control Products business reflecting the continuing slump in the semiconductor and IT-related markets.

Net income is revised downward from the forecast announced last November by the extraordinary loss of two billion yen on impairment of investment securities caused by the recent decline of stock prices.
