As announced in the press release “Notice Concerning the Recording of Special Income from Gain on Transfer of Business (Continuous Disclosure)” dated February 5, 2015, Renesas transferred all of Renesas’ shares in the former Renesas SP Drivers Inc. (“Renesas SP Drivers”), a consolidated subsidiary of Renesas. As a result, Renesas Group recorded a gain on transfer of business of approximately 19.8 billion yen, the difference between the expected transfer price and the equity price of the business transferred, as special income (gain on transfer of business) for the three months ended December 31, 2014. At the time of that announcement, it had been notified that the transfer price was subject to change due to the adjustment of transfer price according to the terms and conditions of the transfer agreement; today, with the transfer price now fixed, the gain on transfer of business is expected to be approximately 20.0 billion yen for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015.
No material impact is anticipated on Renesas’ consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 as a result of the adjusted transfer price following the fixed transfer price, therefore there is no change to the financial forecasts.
