Background to the difference

Renesas announced the following financial results for the year ended March 31, 2014: net sales were 833.0 billion yen, 10.5 billion yen up from the previous forecast (announced on February 6, 2014); semiconductor sales were 796.8 billion yen, 6.8 billion yen up from the previous forecast.

Operating income (loss), ordinary income (loss) and net income (loss) were all better than the company's estimates, mainly owing to semiconductor sales being over the company's expectation and its efforts on promoting cost-containment measures.

Details will be explained in Renesas' announcement of financial results for the year ended March 31, 2014 on May 9, 2014.

The statements in this press release with respect to the plans, strategies and financial outlook of Renesas Electronics and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively "we") are forward-looking statements involving risks and uncertainties.
