Reasons for the revisions

1. Revisions to the financial forecasts

Due to factors affecting NJK’s main business of software development, such as a decrease in the number of ongoing projects in network related fields as a result of reduced investment by its customers and delays in confirmation of orders from customers in the field of public services, net sales and operating income are expected to fall below the previously announced forecasts for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014. However, net income for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 is expected to exceed the previously announced forecast as a result of the allocation of 384 million yen as a deferred income tax expense as described in “2. Allocation of deferred tax assets” below. Due to the above reasons, the consolidated and non-consolidated financial forecasts for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 have been revised.

2. Allocation of deferred tax assets

In light of NJK’s recent business performance and expectations for subsequent fiscal periods, NJK carefully considered the possibility of realizing certain deferred tax assets and, due to an expected incidence of taxable income, expects there to be an allocation of 384 million yen as deferred income tax expenses in its consolidated and non-consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.

 

* The above forecasts are based on information available as of the day of this release. These forecasts are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including ones we cannot predict, any of which may cause actual results to differ from these forecasts.
