Japanese consumer electronics maker Pioneer Corp said on 
Wednesday that it expected revenue to rise by more than 10 
percent next business year, with an operating profit margin of 
seven percent, thanks to overseas growth in sales of DVD 
recorders.
Pioneer President Kaneo Ito told a news conference that he 
expected the operating margin to rise from an estimated six 
percent this business year, ending in March. For the six months 
that ended on September 30, Pioneer reported a 33.5 percent rise 
in operating profit to 17.6 billion yen ($160.9 million) thanks 
to strong sales of car electronics and DVD drives used in 
personal computers. ($1=109.37 yen)
