We anticipate sustained strong growth in the production print segment in the fiscal year ending in March 2013, but expanding business in the digital commercial printing business will be key to achieving this. We formed an alliance with top sheet-fed offset printer manufacturer Komori Corporation to expand our sales channels via their global sales network. Moreover, Komori Corporation's strength lies primarily in large-scale and medium-scale customers, making it complementary to the Company and its niche in relatively small-scale customers.
We are jointly developing future full-scale digital commercial printing systems capable of handling the B2 size using inkjet technology, and exhibited a sample at the drupa 2012 print media fair.
