<The Earnings Report for the Third Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2010>
At the end of the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2010, domestic economy still suffered from stagnation and reduced investments in plant and equipment, keeping business bankruptcy filings at a high level. We strengthened our inspection system and beefed up sales operations for good customers. As a result, consolidated year-to-date transaction volume was down 10.3% from the same period of the previous year to 178.4 billion yen, but transaction volume itself in this quarter was up 2.1% from the same quarter last year. Revenues decreased 1.8% to 171.5 billion yen, while Operating Income was up 6.8% to 8.5 billion yen. Although expenses for bad debts increased by 1.9 billion yen from the same period of the previous year, the expense cuts from productivity gains by examining operational process, as well as our firm financial base, contributed to the reduction of fund raising cost. Income before Special Items was up 5.4% to 8.3 billion yen, and Net Income increased 1.9% to 4.9 billion yen.
As for the business indices, Total Sharefolders Equity increased by 3.8 billion yen to 94.3 billion yen and Total Shareholders' Equity Ratio was up to 15.0%. ROE was 7.1%, up 0.1 percentage points from the previous year. ROA was 1.02%, up 0.10 percentage points from the previous year.
