      (Forecast)


      3. Expected Consolidated Results for Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2020 (From April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020)

      The Company Group has proactively engaged in the biomass related business in Russia, also has expanded its Asset Management and Overseas Real Estate Development Division as one of its important segments. As these businesses tend to be significantly affected by changes in economic conditions and market environment, both domestically and abroad, it is extremely difficult to properly forecast ordinary business results. The Company has adopted a policy to make timely disclosure of closing business results and a summary of the businesses to be conducted on a quarterly basis, and not to disclose a forecast of consolidated business results.
