It says:

"News from Japan
Rough translation


Hoya wants to gradually minimize Pentax's compact digital camera business in 2-3 years. Hoya concluded that it would be difficult to compete in budget digital camera market. Hoya investigates the profitability of high-end digital cameras, but they will mainly focus on DSLR for now. The decision is based on their forecast that the P&S digital camera market will peak out within 2-3 years. Hoya seeks a niche market with high margin instead. Though Pentax K10d and K100d are going off well, Hoya's standpoint is that it will be hard to provide complete line-up of SLR from entry-level to flagship model as Canon, Nikon and Sony do, considering Pentax's brand and selling power.
