| Looking next to our
non-operating income and losses;
Our financial balance improved 0.2
billion yen compared to the 1st half of
FY 2001.
The increase in equity in earnings
of affiliated companies reflects the robust
business results of NSK-WARNER K. K. and
NSK TORRINGTON Co., Ltd.
The increase in miscellaneous expenses
includes a 0.8 billion yen foreign exchange
loss incurred in Japan and Europe.
