  4. FY2020-Q1AchievedAnnual report

    「Because the risk-sharing corporate pension plan introduced this time does not entail a substantive obligation to make additional contributions and is classified as a defined contribution plan, during the cumulative first quarter of the fiscal year under review we recognized ¥21,206 million, representing the difference between the retirement benefit obligation relating to the portion transferred to the plan and the amount of plan assets transferred to the plan corresponding to the reduction in that obligation, as a settlement gain arising from the plan transition under other income in the condensed interim consolidated income statement. The liability for retirement benefits in the condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position decreased by ¥21,206 million.」

    The risk-sharing corporate pension plan was introduced on 1 April 2019 and accounted for as a defined contribution plan. A settlement gain of ¥21,206 million was recognized in connection with the plan transition, and the retirement benefit liability decreased by the same amount.
