3. Reasons for revisions in earnings projections for FY ending March 31, 2002

The business environment surrounding the Oki group is getting more severe, due to the continuing sluggish state of the economies of Japan, Europe, and the United States after the terrorist attacks on the US, the depressed domestic IT and semiconductor markets, and sharp price decreases due to deflation, among other factors. Within this context of business conditions worsening beyond expectations, the financial result for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2002 has been revised as shown.

Non-consolidated projections include approximately 15 billion yen of write-down losses of investments to certain subsidiaries. As for investments in marketable securities, the above projections (both consolidated and non-consolidated basis) include the write-down losses incurred in the interim period ended September 30, 2001. Additional write-down losses may occur according to the further decrease of market prices of the securities at the fiscal year end, although such additional losses are not included in the above projections.
