ORIX Announces Forecast of Interim Consolidated Financial Results

In a filing required under Tokyo Stock Exchange regulations, ORIX disclosed the following information today regarding consolidated financial results for the six months ended September 30, 2005.

Interim Results Forecast (April 1-September 30, 2005)		(Millions of yen)
	Revenues	IBIT*	Net Income
Fiscal 2006 Interim Results Forecast (six months)	440,000	133,000	83,000
(Reference) Previous Forecast for Fiscal 2006 (full year)	880,000	162,000	96,000
(Reference) Fiscal 2005 Interim Results (six months)	417,499	69,100	42,688
(Reference) Fiscal 2005 Results (full year)	916,950	154,347	91,496

* IBIT refers to “income before discontinued operations and income taxes.”

ORIX forecasts that it will outperform the results of the interim period (April 1-September 30, 2004) of the previous fiscal year due to the good performance of almost all segments including the Corporate Financial Services segment, Real Estate-Related Finance segment, and Real Estate segment in Japan and overseas segments, and due to a concentration of real estate sales in the first half of this fiscal year.

ORIX will announce the details of consolidated financial results for the interim period and its forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006 in its interim results announcement scheduled for November 8, 2005.
