The plan’s second stage commencing in April 2008 targets qualitative growth as opposed to simply growth in size, and these three years are seen as a time for “strengthening our strengths” in our quest to build an enterprise that punches far above its weight. The plan sets as targets for consolidated performance in fiscal 2010 sales of at least 48.0 billion yen and operating income to sales of at least 10%. In order to achieve these targets, we will be pursuing a growth strategy tackling the key themes of restructuring our business portfolio and stabilizing our revenue base, focusing in particular on our core Environmental Test Business.
