Qualitative Information on the Current Quarter Results
Review of Operating Results (Financial and Economic Environment)
During fiscal 2024, the economic environment continued to recover at a moderate pace against a backdrop of improved corporate earnings and inbound demand. In financial markets, once the BOJ terminated its negative interest rate policy, the demand for cash increased as market interest rates began to rise.
Looking at the stock market, the Nikkei Stock Average (closing price) began the period at 39,803 yen and increased to its highest value on record of 42,224 yen on July 11th, driven by strong corporate earnings. After the BOJ announced an additional rate hike at the end of July, stock prices began to fall as the JPY rapidly weakened against the USD on the thinking that the interest rate gap would narrow between Japan and the U.S., reaching their lowest level for the period at 31,458 yen, with the largest decline on record occurring on August 5th. The market then recovered rapidly but continued to face downward pressure due to concerns over U.S. tariff policies, to close at 35,617 yen at the end of the period.
Looking at the outstanding balance of standardized margin transactions on the Tokyo and other markets (Tokyo Stock Exchange, Nagoya Stock Exchange, and PTS), the outstanding balance of margin buying increased from 2.91 trillion yen level at the beginning of the period to hover around 3 trillion yen level, then peaked at 3.15 trillion yen level in late July. Later, this balance declined during the steep drop in stock prices in August. The balance remained sluggish, reaching its lowest level for the period at
2.28 trillion yen at the end of December, and ended the period at the 2.73 trillion yen level. Meanwhile, the outstanding balance of margin selling increased from 610 billion yen level at the beginning of the period to peak at 650 billion yen in early July. During the steep decline in stock prices in August, this balance bottomed out at the 320 billion yen level due to profit-taking buybacks, and then gradually increased to end the period at the 450 billion yen level.
(Results for the Fiscal Year Ending March 2025)
In Fiscal 2024, our group posted an increase in its consolidated operating profit to 11,329 million yen (up 11.3% 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 buoyant stock market and changes in interest rate conditions which lead to increased demand for financing. Furthermore, in trust banking business, managed trust services continued to perform strongly. As a result, our consolidated ordinary profit also increased to 12,507 million yen (up 13.4% year-on-year).
In addition, the gain on the sale of real estate held by the consolidated subsidiary and the sale of unlisted stocks held by JSF were recorded as extraordinary income, and accordingly, the profit attributable to owners of parent increased significantly to 10,375 million yen (up 29.2% year-on-year).

Overview of Financial Status
(Features of the Group's Assets, Liabilities, and Cash flows)
The majority of assets consist of loans for margin transactions (operating loans) deposits to the current account at the Bank of Japan (cash and deposits), collateral pledged for procurement of securities in securities financing (cash collateral provided for securities borrowed, securities purchased under repurchase agreements) and securities held for the purpose of efficiently utilizing funds.
Liabilities consist mainly of marketable funding sources for lending, such as call money and commercial paper, as well as collateral accepted for securities lent in securities financing.
Note that, within the security finance business, which has been a focus in recent years, bond repo and repurchase agreements have seen a significant increase in their balance in line with the growth of the business due to the large transaction lots. As such transactions are intermediary transactions that match the needs of lenders and borrowers, the assets (cash collateral provided for securities borrowed and securities purchased under resale agreements) and liabilities (cash collateral received for securities lent and securities sold under repurchase agreement) are accounted in both directions on the company's balance sheet. However, in such transactions, exposure is controlled by receiving and paying amounts equivalent to the bonds' market value as collateral for the bonds subject to the transactions, by conducting daily
mark-to-market valuations during the term of the transactions, and by making appropriate margin calls (i.e., receiving and paying the difference between the cash collateral and a bond's market value). In addition, most of the counterparties are subject to debt assumptions by financial institutions with relatively high credit ratings or central clearing houses. These risk controls ensure that the increase in exposure and credit risk will be adequately controlled, even as assets and liabilities expand.
For other security finance operations, in addition to the same risk control measures as for bond repo and repurchase agreements, appropriate haircuts (weight) are set according to the volatility and market liquidity of the shares subject to transactions in order to ensure that the exposure is well controlled. In addition, under the framework of integrated risk management, the company weighs the amount of risk on a daily basis and manages this risk to keep it within the risk capital framework set based on the company's operational strength. Furthermore, we also monitor, on a daily basis, the exposure to each counterparty in times of stress to see that it is within a certain limit so as to constrain excessive exposure to certain counterparties.
Cash flows are mainly generated by the changes in assets and liabilities mentioned above, as well as by dividend payments and share buy-backs and disposals.
Cash and deposits in assets may increase or decrease significantly, depending on the status of standby funds in trust accounts in liabilities and the cash flow status of the Group as a whole.
No significant capital expenditure is planned at present.
(Status of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Assets)
As of the end of the consolidated accounting period (March 31, 2025), total assets amounted to 13,769.5 billion yen (an increase of 24.8 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end), total liabilities amounted to 13,635.2 billion yen (an increase of 35.0 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end), and total net assets amounted to 134.3 billion yen (a decrease of 10.2 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end).
The main factors for this are as follows.
- Assets:
Operating loans decreased by 261.8 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end, due to a decrease in lending at JSF Trust and Banking Co., Ltd.
Securities purchased under gensaki resale agreements increased by 1,687.5 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end, due to an increase in bond gensaki transactions.
Cash collateral provided for securities borrowed decreased by 645.9 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end, due to a decrease in bond repo transactions.
- Liabilities:
Securities sold under repurchase agreements increased by 2,094.6 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end, due to an increase in bond gensaki transactions.
Cash collateral received for securities loaned decreased by 1,212.8 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end, due to a decrease in bond repo transactions.
Borrowed money from trust accounts decreased by 164.1 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end, due to a decrease in standby funds in the trust accounts at JSF Trust and Banking Co., Ltd.
- Net assets:
Shareholders' equity increased by 1.3 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end, due to the recognition of profit attributable to owners of the parent.
Other comprehensive accumulated income decreased by 11.6 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end, as a result of decreases in unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities incidental to price fluctuations in securities held, and deferred gains or losses on hedges.
(Status of cash flow)
As of the end of the consolidated accounting period (March 31, 2025), cash and cash equivalents amounted to 1,435.2 billion yen (a decrease of 542.3 billion yen from the previous fiscal year-end).
The status of each cash flow and their factors are as follows:
Cash flow from operating activities
Net outflow by cash flow from operating activities was 535.0 billion yen (an over inflow of 383.4 billion yen in the previous fiscal year), due to a decrease in cash collateral received for securities lent, etc.
Cash flow from investing activities
Net inflow by cash flow from investing activities was 1.7 billion yen (an over inflow of 4.5 billion yen in the previous fiscal year), due to proceeds from sale and redemption of investment securities and sale of property, plant and equipment.
Cash flow from financing activities
Net outflow by cash flow from investing activities was 9.0 billion yen (an over outflow of 6.6 billion yen in the previous fiscal year), due to dividend payments and share buy-backs.
Future Outlook
As set out in the "Announcement on Disclosure of the Full-Year Forecast" dated May 15, 2025, the performance outlook for fiscal 2024 forecasts a consolidated ordinary profit of 13.2 billion yen and a net income attributable to owners of the parent of 9.4 billion yen. Please note that the above performance forecasts are based on information that is currently available to our group and on assumptions deemed reasonable at present. Actual performance may differ due to a variety of future factors, and prompt disclosure will be provided if it becomes necessary to make any revisions to the performance forecasts.

(5) Notes Regarding Consolidated Financial Statements (Notes Regarding Going Concern Assumptions)
Not applicable.
(Note on Changes to Accounting Policies)
(Application of "Accounting Standards for Corporate, Inhabitant and Enterprise Taxes, etc.")
The "Accounting Standards for Corporate, Inhabitant and Enterprise Taxes, etc." (Business Accounting Standard No. 27 of October 28, 2022; hereinafter referred to as "Revised Accounting Standards of 2022") have been applied at our company since the beginning of this consolidated accounting period.
With regard to amendments related to the classification of corporate tax accounting (taxation on other comprehensive income), we have complied with the transitional treatment specified in the proviso to Paragraph 20-3 of the Revised Accounting Standards of 2022 and the transitional treatment specified in the proviso to Paragraph 65-2(2) of the "Guidance on the Application of Accounting Standards for Tax Effect Accounting" (Guidance on Business Accounting Standard Application No. 28 of October 28, 2022; hereinafter referred to as "Revised Application Guidance of 2022"). This has had no impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Furthermore, with regard to amendments related to the review of treatment in consolidated financial statements when deferring taxes on gains and losses arising from the sale of subsidiary shares among consolidated companies for tax purposes, we have applied the Revised Application Guidance of 2022 since the beginning of this consolidated accounting period. This change in the accounting policy has been applied retroactively, and the consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year have been restated accordingly. This has had no impact on the consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year.
(Note on Changes to Presentation Method)
In the past, our company has classified "interest received" from deposits to banks and other financial institutions as "non-operating revenue," and in the consolidated statement of income for the previous third quarter consolidated cumulative period, 251 million yen in "interest received" was classified as "non-operating revenue." .
Since, however, the depositing of funds is also part of our ordinary business activities in ALM (Asset-Liability Management), and since the monetary importance of interest income has increased with the rise in deposit interest rates, from this first quarter consolidated cumulative period, we have reclassified "interest received" as "operating revenue," similarly to revenues from other transactions based on ALM.
(Segment Information)
As set out in the Note on Changes to Presentation Method, from the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we have reclassified "interest received" from deposits to banks and others as "operating revenue." Accordingly, we have retroactively reclassified this as "operating revenue" in the prior third quarter cumulative period as well. This increased "operating revenue" by 251 million yen over the previous method, but had no impact on segment profit (ordinary profit).
Overview of reporting segments
The group's reporting segments are components of the Group for which separate financial information is available and which are regularly subjected to review by the Board of Directors to determine the allocation of management resources and to evaluate their performance.
The Group has three reporting segments: the company's securities finance business, and the trust and banking business of JSF Trust and Banking Co., Ltd., and the real estate leasing business of Nihon Building, which are consolidated subsidiaries.
In the securities finance business, the company provides loans for margin transactions, securities financing, and securities investment. The trust and banking business includes securities trust services and banking services including loans. The real estate leasing business is mainly comprised of the leasing and management of properties owned by the group.
Method of determining reporting segments
The accounting method used for the reporting segments are the same as those used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
