3. Reasons for the Amendments
The forecasts of consolidated and unconsolidated net revenues and income for FY2009
decreased from the previously announced forecasts, due to factors such as the
decrease in sales of trucks and buses in response to the drastic slowdown of the global automotive
market and the further appreciation of the yen compared to our previously assumed
exchange rates.
(Note) The prospective figures for the financial results stated above are based upon information that is currently in Hino's possession and upon certain premises that Hino deems reasonable. Hino's actual future performance or other similar results could differ materially from those discussed above, due to various factors.
