Oct 25, 2005 Revision of Forecasts for Financial Results and Dividends per ShareBased on recent business performance trends and other factors, Tokyo Electron Limited (TEL) has revised its forecasts for financial results and dividends per share (released when financial results were announced on May 12, 2005) as follows: 1. Consolidated financial forecast revision a. Financial forecast revision for the six months ended September 30, 2005 (April 1, 2005 - Septeber 30, 2005)
b. Financial forecast revision for the year ending March 31, 2006 (April 1, 2005 - March 31, 2006) (Million of Yen, %)
2. Non-consolidated financial forecast revision a. Financial forecast revision for the six months ended September 30, 2005 (April 1, 2005 - September 30, 2005) (Million of Yen, %)
b. Financial forecast revision for the year ending March 31, 2006 (April 1, 2005 - March 31, 2006) (Million of Yen, %)
[Reason for revision] In the markets related to semiconductors and flat panel displays (FPDs), inventory adjustments for semiconductors and electronic components, which began in the second half of last year, have run their course and semiconductor and FPD manufacturers continue to make brisk capital investments. Under these circumstances, net sales by TEL's semiconductor and FPD production equipment divisions are expected to exceed previous forecasts.
3. Dividends per share forecast revision
[Reason for revision] As announced on April 19, 2005, TEL's new dividend policy is to aim for a payout ratio of 20% based on consolidated net income for the current term, starting with the payment of interim and year-end dividends for the fiscal year ending March 2006. Therefore, following the revision of financial forecasts for the full year as mentioned above, the previous dividend forecasts have also been revised. |
