Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

The life insurance business posted lower profit due to deterioration in gains and losses caused by market fluctuations related to minimum guarantees on variable insurance and other factors, despite a decrease in losses on sales of securities accompanying bond sales for ALM purposes. The non-life insurance business posted higher profit due to improved expense efficiency and the effect of higher revenue, despite an increase in incurred claims resulting from higher average claim payments and other factors. The banking business posted higher profit following the recognition of a gain on the transfer of an equity-method investment, despite higher operating expenses.
