We are also being appraised as outstanding in the quality and technology of our LAN cables for information telecommunications use. This has not been achieved in just a moment in time. It is a valuable accomplishment gained by ceaseless effort over the last 30 years with a creative and challenging mind. As a one global village through innovative developments in information telecommunications, we have welcomed the era of unlimited competition. The fact that we cannot survive if we are not number 1 came to us as a clear reality. In the face of this reality, we merged with the Nexans Group of France in May 2003, the largest electrical cable group in the world through their participation in our stocks.
