continuing to market high added-value metal analog watches,

bringing this technology to our brands for women in order to
further popularize models with this feature.
In the education products business, we will market full-featured
English learning devices for adult users in the Japanese market,
while outside of Japan we will expand our lineup of scientific
calculators with country-specific features tailored to the language
and education system of the target country.
In addition, we will globally expand our framework for school
sales in order to tap into undeveloped regions and develop new
markets.

 We will market instruments to specialty musical

instrument stores and music schools, and we will
expand sales of keyboards in North America and Europe.
In the digital camera business, we will maintain high unit
