(Note) Net income per share in the Previously announced forecast (A) row is the amount announced on February 14, 2025 and is calculated based on the average number of shares during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 that was estimated in the nine months ended December 31, 2024.
Reason for the revision
On November 14, 2024, JAPAN POST BANK Co., Ltd. and JAPAN POST INSURANCE Co., Ltd., which are consolidated subsidiaries of the Company, revised their financial results forecasts upwards in response to an increase
in investment income, etc. due to a favorable investment environment, while the Company's consolidated financial results forecast for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 has been left unchanged after comprehensively taking into consideration the uncertain impact of revisions to postal rates by the Company's consolidated subsidiary, JAPAN POST Co., Ltd., on future gains and losses, and other factors. Since it has now become clear that JAPAN POST Co., Ltd.'s gains and losses will be within the expected range, and that net income attributable to Japan Post Holdings and other items are expected to significantly exceed the previous forecast, the Company has revised its consolidated financial results forecast for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 upwards as shown in the table above.
There is no revision to the dividends forecast.
