Document Solutions: 3rd Quarter Fiscal 2009 Earnings (9 months, Apr. - Dec.)

From the start of the third quarter, the rapid deterioration of the business environment was accompanied by a deceleration of exports to Europe and North America. Moreover, the negative impact of the rapid exchange rate movements related to the U.S. dollar and Asian and Oceanian currencies expanded.
As a result of these and other factors, the segment's consolidated revenue amounted to ¥829.9 billion, or 5.3% below the level in the same period of the previous fiscal year.

While the trend of economic deceleration presented challenges, we worked to lower cost of sales, reduce SG&A expenses, and take other countermeasures that enabled us to record ¥58.9 billion in segment operating income, down 2.9%.
