  1. Qualitative Information on the Current Quarter Results

    1. Review of Operating Results

      (Results for the Third Quarter of Fiscal Year Ending March 2026)

      In the third quarter cumulative consolidated accounting period, our group posted an increase in its consolidated gross operating profit to 16,316 million yen (up 7.8% year-on-year). This was due to robust performance in security finance operations, such as loans for margin transactions and equity repo transactions, driven by a robust stock market and increased demand for financing brought on by rising market interest rates. As a result, our consolidated operating profit increased to 10,604 million yen (up 9.9% year-on-year), and our consolidated ordinary profit also increased to 11,444 million yen (up 9.5% year-on-year). The profit attributable to owners of the parent amounted to 8,123 million yen (a decrease of 8.1% year-on-year) due to the absence of the extraordinary gain of 1,828 million yen recorded in the same period of the previous year.

    3. Future Outlook

    In light of recent performance trends and other factors, the company has revised its fiscal 2025 earnings forecast which was originally disclosed on May 15, 2025. Driven by a robust stock market, profits are expected to exceed the previous forecast as securities financing, centered on the loans for margin transaction, performed better than anticipated.

    Reflecting this revised outlook, our consolidated operating profit is expected to increase to 13,900 million yen (up 12.1% over our previous outlook), and our consolidated ordinary profit is also expected to increase to 14,900 million yen (up 12.9% over our previous outlook). The profit attributable to owners of the parent is expected to reach to 10,500 million yen (an increase of 11.7 over our previous outlook).

    For more details, please see the "Notice on Revisions to Full-Year Consolidated Earnings Forecast" released on February 12, 2026.
