Future Outlook. As a result of the corporate split, Ube Industries expects to record an extraordinary income of approximately 2 billion yen, and after taking account of income taxes, profit attributable to owners of parent is expected to increase by approximately 2 billion yen. If Ube Industries considers it necessary to revise its forecast of consolidated results for the fiscal year ending March 2021, announced on May 13, 2020, it will promptly announce the revised forecast.

Future Outlook. Inverclyde is going through a period of considerable change with improvements taking place on a number of fronts. The planned improvements will be significant and will impact on the areas overall renewal. The development of Inverclyde’s Single Outcome Agreement is taking place at a time of opportunity in terms of the potential for economic growth and broader regeneration developments including significant investments for the waterfront from Port Glasgow to Greenock. This area will be boosted when the ambitious plans of River Xxxxx Homes and Riverside Inverclyde are fully realised. Some of the outputs they have identified are outlined below. Riverside Inverclyde Riverside Inverclyde is a £400million public/private sector initiative that will ultimately regenerate over four miles of waterfront in Inverclyde from Greenock to Port Glasgow. Examples of the impact that it will have on the area include: • new, modern business spaces will be provided that will support and accommodate new business activity, • a range of housing, from affordable to luxury, will be created along the waterfront to accommodate a range of different needs and opportunities, • improved leisure and tourism opportunities through the provision of new marinas, water and sport activities. Over the next ten years it is expected that Riverside Inverclyde will create around 2,600 full time jobs and will effectively create a better living and working environment for the residents of Inverclyde. The work undertaken as part of the Riverside Inverclyde initiative will help to alter perceptions of the area, which is vital to ensure the sustainability of the area. It is thought that the project will bring over 4,500 new residents to the area, which will help to stem the population decline that Inverclyde has experienced over the past 20 years It is estimated that the Annual Gross Value Added will be £90 Million.

Future Outlook. After purchase of shares based on the Transaction, Mitsubishi Materials will expand the lineup of advanced cemented carbide products by acquiring Hitachi Tool’s products which enable high-precision, high-efficiency and high-speed processing, as well Hitachi Tool’s proposal ability for processing complicated shapes for a variety of materials. Through this expansion, Mitsubishi Materials will supply a broader range of products and services for which long-term market demand exists. Also, Mitsubishi Materials will solidify our business foundation by acquiring the No. 1 share in the domestic market for cemented carbide products. Furthermore, through synergy with Hitachi Tool, Mitsubishi Materials will capture a global share of 10% or higher in the overseas market for cemented carbide products, a market in which demand is forecasted to increase. Through joint management of Hitachi Tool with Mitsubishi Materials, Hitachi Metals will expand its customer base by integrating not only with Hitachi Tool but also with the cemented carbide products business of Mitsubishi Materials. Moreover, in high-grade special steel fields such as tool steel and materials/products for the aerospace and energy industries, Hitachi Metals will strengthen and expand its total solutions from material development to manufacturing, processing and sales. While continuing a partnership with the tool steel business of Hitachi Metals, Hitachi Tool will accelerate its global expansion by utilizing the strengths of Mitsubishi Materials; namely, materials development and production technology for cemented carbide products, as well as a vast global sales network. Furthermore, Hitachi Tool’s raw materials procurement will be complemented by Mitsubishi Material’s integrated supply chain and recycle network, which spans from raw material to finished products. Therefore, Hitachi Tool will further strengthen its business foundation for cemented carbide products. Through joint management of Hitachi Tool, Mitsubishi Materials and Hitachi Metals will construct a “win-win-win” relationship by exerting the strengths of each company while utilizing each other’s management resources. We shall strive to become a trusted “best partner” to our customers.
Future Outlook. How can the global stocktake mechanism help in assessing progress and enhancing climate action?
Future Outlook. Matters to be disclosed in relation to the integration will be promptly disclosed when decided.
Future Outlook. The Companies will conduct prompt disclosure in the event where any matter requiring disclosure emerges.
Future Outlook. The Company enters 2003 with a total backlog of $14 million and expects demand for aerospace and power generation products to remain weak due to projected reductions in the deliveries of commercial airplanes and industrial gas turbines. The Company expects its results will improve throughout 2003 in conjunction with the pace of the domestic economy’s recovery and the market’s increasing acceptance of Dunkirk Specialty Steel as a reliable supplier of quality specialty steel bar, rod and wire products. The Company’s actual results will be affected by a wide range of factors including the limited operating history of Dunkirk Specialty Steel; the receipt, pricing and timing of future customer orders; changes in product mix; the concentrated nature of the Company’s customer base to date and the Company’s dependence on its significant customers; the Company’s reliance on certain critical manufacturing equipment; the limited number of raw material and energy suppliers and significant fluctuations that may occur in raw material and energy prices; the ability of the Company to meet its current debt covenants; the ultimate outcome of the Company’s current and future litigation matters; and the Company’s ongoing requirement for continued compliance with environmental laws. Any unfavorable change in the foregoing or other factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Many of these factors are not within the Company’s control, and there can be no assurances regarding the Company’s future sales or earnings. For a discussion of these and other matters, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form-10K for the year ended December 31, 2002 and other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Future Outlook. The business outlook after the integration will be discussed at the Integration Committee and its subcommittees to be organized by both companies. The performance forecast of the Joint Holding Company will be announced as soon as made available.
Future Outlook. The current GLOBOX model is a steady state multimedia model. For the calcula- tion of LCA characterisation factors, this is sufficient (Heijungs, 1995). A draw- back of steady state models is, however, that they are more difficult to validate, since it requires well-documented steady state situations, caused by emissions of globally distributed chemicals. Developing a dynamic variant of the GLOBOX model would open up better possibilities for model validation, and is therefore considered as a desirable next step. This step would also broaden the applicability of the GLOBOX model for further environmental analyses of the global distribu- tion patterns of chemicals. Yet, the main goal of the GLOBOX model remains the calculation of spatially differentiated LCA toxicity characterisation factors on a global scale. A logical next step would be the extension of the GLOBOX model with other impact categories such as global warming and acidification, including the specific environmental processes involved, and thus the creation of an inte- grated system for global spatial differentiation in life cycle impact assessment.
