Review of Operations
Imaging
Company
The Imaging Company enhanced its digital SLR camera
line-up and achieved an increase in unit sales during
the fi scal year ended March 2009, but faced diffi cult
conditions in the latter half of the period due to the
signifi cantly stronger yen in the exchange markets,
and the slump in personal consumption caused by the
rapidly deteriorating economy. As a result, segment sales
amounted to ¥596,468 million (up 1.8% year on year),
with operating income of ¥40,039 million (down 52.3%).
