3.
Reasons for the Amendments
 
Due to factors such as the increase in the number of automobiles subcontracted for production by Toyota Motor Corporation to the Company, the increase in the number of automobiles sold in Asia, group-wide profitability improvement efforts and a weaker yen in the currency exchange market, consolidated and unconsolidated net revenues, operating income/loss and ordinary loss for FY2010 are expected to improve from the previously announced figures.  In addition, as a result of assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, deferred income tax (tax expense) is expected to decrease, and accordingly, consolidated and unconsolidated net loss for FY2010 is expected to improve from the previously announced figures.
 
 
(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.
