Consolidated profit for the fiscal third quarter attributable to owners of the parent amounted to 168.2 billion yen, a decrease of 402.0 billion yen (70.5%) compared to the same period last year, due primarily to the reverse effect from the impact of a reduction of corporate tax rates in the U.S. (346.1 billion yen)*1 recorded in the same period last year.
