2. Effect on Consolidated Results
(1) Fiscal year ended March 31, 2011
An extraordinary loss of 11.6 billion yen has been posted to cover costs to restore damaged assets, as well as fixed costs during the plants' non-operational period and loss on disposal of inventories. Operating income decreased by approximately 13 billion yen, primarily due to the impact of decreased sales on account of delays to product delivery and shipments.
(2) Fiscal year ending March 31, 2012
As of April 20, 2011, all of the above facilities had recovered100% production capacity. However, the effect on consolidated results in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 is unknown at this time. This is due to concerns over the procurement of raw materials and components, as well as the increasing uncertainty on domestic ICT investments.
