Chairman'sComments on First Quarter's Sales Performance and Outlook

Concerningthe first quarter's sales performance, the Chairman and Chief Executive, Dr.Patrick Shui-Chung Wang, said, "JohnsonElectric is continuing to experience robust demand for its motion products andtechnology solutions which is driving very healthy sales growth.  At present, the main operational challengesfor the business are higher raw material and labour costs that are running atlevels well ahead of the prior year."

Dr. Wang further commented: "Lookingfurther ahead, we remain concerned about the risk that the trade disputebetween the US, China and European Union will ultimately have a negative impacton global economic growth.   Our current analysis of Section 301 tariffs ongoods imported into the USA from China, covering those already implemented andthose recently announced but not yet implemented, indicates that these tariffswill apply to Johnson Electric product lines that amount to less than 5 percent of the Group's total annual sales.  While this estimated direct sales exposure toSection 301 tariffs is not large in the context of the Group's highlydiversified global sales base, it remains difficult to assess what impact afurther ratchetting up in tit-for-tat tariffs could have on customer demand,buying behaviour and on Johnson Electric's component input costs over themedium to longer term."
