Summary Revenue from sales of Industrial & Automotive

communications infrastructure equipment and smartphones. Revenue from

and sales promotion activities. As a result, consolidated net sales for
the three months ended June 30 increased by JPY25,177 (USD225) million,
or 7.9%, to JPY345,162 (USD3,082) million, compared with the same period
of the prior year.
Profit from operations increased 154.0%, to JPY31,167 (USD278) million,
due mainly to stronger sales and continued cost reduction efforts.
Income before income taxes increased 98.6%, to JPY49,260 (USD440)
million, and net income attributable to shareholders of Kyocera
Corporation increased 100.4%, to JPY34,981 (USD312) million.

makes no change to the sales and profit forecasts for the year ending
March 31, 2018 that it announced on May 1, 2017, since these strong Q1
