3. Reason for the revision

In the domestic market, the outlook for the number of machine replacement and system modifications to accommodate the new banknotes issued on July 3, 2024 is expected to be higher than anticipated. In addition, in the retail and transportation market, the Company has revised upward its consolidated earnings forecasts for the first half and the full year due to the expected continuation of demand for self-service solutions targeting labor saving and operational efficiency improvements.

The exchange rate assumptions remain unchanged at US$1=¥140, €1=¥150.

Note: The above forecast is based on the information available at the time of announcement and may differ from the actual performance.
