January 31, 2012 Company Name: ALL NIPPON AIRWAYS CO., LTD. President and CEO: Shinichiro Ito (Code Number: 9202, First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange and the Osaka Securities Exchange) Contact: Director, General Administration, Yasuo Tanji (TEL: 3-6735-1001) Notification of Revision to Full Financial Year Performance Forecast and Draw-Down of Deferred Tax Assets The Company hereby announces a revision to the full financial year performance forecast for FY2011 (April 1, 2011 to March 31, 2012) previously announced in its statement of consolidated financial results dated October 28, 2011. 1. Revision to the Performance Forecast (1) Revision to full financial year consolidated performance forecast for FY2011 (April 1, 2011-March 31, 2012) Operating Operating Recurring Net Net Income Revenues Income Profit Income per Share Billion Billion Billion Billion Yen Forecast as of October yen yen yen yen 28, 2011 (A) 1,400 70 36 20 7.97 New forecast (B) 1,400 90 56 20 7.96 Change (B-A) - 20 20 - % Change - 28.6 55.6 - Ref. FY2010 (Apri 1, 1,357.6 67.8 37.0 23.3 9.29 2010-March 31, 2011) (2) Revision to full financial year non-consolidated performance forecast for FY2011 (April 1, 2011-March 31, 2012) Billion Billion Billion Billion Yen Forecast as of October yen yen yen yen 28, 2011 (A) 1,240 65 32 18 7.17 New forecast (B) 1,240 82 50 18 7.16 Change (B-A) - 17 18 - % Change - 26.2 56.3 - Ref. FY2010 (April 1, 1,191.5 60.0 31.6 23.0 9.17 2010-March 31, 2011) (3) Reason for Revision While concerns remain about a downward swing in overseas economies due to the government bond crisis in Europe, and while the flooding in Thailand and other events have had an impact, operating revenues have come in at close to previously planned levels, boosted in part by the introduction of the Boeing 787 aircraft and the success of measures to stimulate demand on the sales and marketing side. The forecast for revenue has thus been left unchanged from the previously announced forecast. In operating expenditures, meanwhile, approximately 30.0 billion yen in mergency cost improvement measures for the full fiscal year are being implemented as planned in response to the sudden drop in demand caused by the earthquake. In addition, progress has been made in reducing expenses, as a portion of the cost restructuring that was due to take place beginning in the next fiscal year was moved up. As a result, both operating income and recurring profit are expected to increase by approximately 20.0 billion yen. Net income is expected to remain unchanged from the previous forecast, at 20.0 billion yen, due to a partial write-off of deferred tax assets etc., following the official announcement of the Act Related to a Reduction in Corporate Tax Rates. Note that these forecasts assume a US dollar/yen exchange rate of 80 yen, a market price for Dubai Crude Oil, a key benchmark for aviation fuel prices, of USD 105/barrel, and a price for Singapore jet kerosene of USD 125/barrel. 2. Write-off of Deferred Tax Assets As a result of the December 2, 2011 official announcement of the Act Related to a Reduction in Corporate Tax Rates, the Company writes off a portion of its deferred tax assets, with 10.0 billion yen for the full fiscal year on a consolidated basis (8.0 billion yenon a non-consolidated basis) to be booked as an adjustment for corporate taxes, etc. Note: This forecast of business performance has been prepared based on all information available at the time of publication.Final performance may differ from forecast figures due to a variety of factors going forward.
