First half net sales saw a decrease in revenue of 23.7 billion due to the loss of ¥22.3 billion caused by termination of an consignment agreement for Isuzu at SIA, the deterioration of domestic sales unit numbers and mix, and exchange rate losses. Operating income, which will be explained later, increased by ¥1.9 billion to ¥17.4 billion with the deterioration of both the domestic and overseas sales units and mixture offset by such factors as an acceleration in the cost reduction of materials, efficient operation in R&D costs and streamlining in overheads. Conversely, ordinary income , which will be explained later, fell by ¥1.5 billion to ¥13.5 billion yen. The net income for the period was down by ¥0.3 billion to ¥8.0 billion yen because of tax deductions related to R&D costs.
