*The above Sales
and Operating income breakdowns are calculated based
on the location of the Seller (each shipping division)
and includes interarea sales and transfers. Therefore,
the figures do not match the Sales breakdown of the
“Net Sales by Region”
|
| |
Operating income by geographical segments are as shown
on this slide.
In Japan, we expect sales of bearings and precision
machinery and parts to fall further in the second
half of the year, bringing down total sales and resulting
in profits to fall into the red at the operating income
level.
In the Americas, we expect a fall in both sales and
profits as the robust Brazilian economy is expected
to slow down due to a power shortage crisis and the
U.S. economy is sinking further into recession, on
top of the fact that there are fewer operating days
compared to the first half of the year, and sales
of precision machinery and parts are expected to fall
further.
In Europe, operating losses are expected to increase
due to fewer operating days and the effect of the
weakening economy which should bring down sales significantly.
Production is also being cut back to reduce inventory,
as well.
And in Asia, sales decreases in the ASEAN region and
South Korea are expected to cause profits in the region
to deteriorate. |
