2. Reason for announcement and Qualitative information regarding forecasts for the consolidated operating performance

 Kyushu Electric Power has announced the financial forecasts for the six months ended September 30, 2012 by calculation mainly based on prospects for trends in electrical power supply and demand of the first half.
 Consolidated sales is expected to exceed the six months of FY2011, affected by the business performances in electricity business mainly because of increased charge unit price due to the effect of fuel cost adjustment system in spite of decreased electricity sales volume. The ordinary profit-and-loss and the net profit-and-loss are expected to get further in the red compared with the six months of FY2012,affected by the business performances in electricity business because of the influence of the deferred resumption of the operations of reactors of our nuclear power stations and the increase of thermal fuel costs and costs for power purchases.
 Our year-end financial results forecasts for FY2012 are undetermined given the unpredictability of assessing trends in electrical power supply and demand of the second half because it is uncertain regarding the schedule for the resumption of the operations of reactors of our nuclear power stations. We will promptly inform you of our forecasts when it is possible for us to make them.
