2. Qualitative Information related to the Consolidated Financial Conditions

Total assets as of December 31, 2009 increased by 178.4 billion yen from March 31, 2009 to 6,091.8 billion yen, due to the increase in securities by the rise of stock prices and the issue of subordinated debt.

Total net assets as of December 31, 2009 increased by 153.6 billion yen from March 31, 2009 to 748.5 billion yen, due to the increase in unrealized gains on securities available for sale by the increase in unrealized gains on stocks.

3. Qualitative Information related to the Consolidated Forecasts

4. Others

 

(1) Changes in significant subsidiaries during the period (changes in specified subsidiaries resulting in the change in the scope of consolidation): None

 

(2) Adoption of simplified accounting methods or accounting methods used specifically for the quarterly consolidated financial statements:

Income taxes are calculated by applying a reasonably estimated effective tax rate to income before income taxes. The estimated effective tax rate is determined by estimating the effective tax rate after applying deferred tax accounting for the fiscal year, including the third quarter of this fiscal year. When it is remarkably unreasonable to adopt this accounting method, income taxes are calculated by the statutory effective tax rate.

 

(3) Changes in accounting policies, procedures and methods of presentation for preparing the quarterly consolidated financial statements during the period: None

Note)

The above figures are calculated based on Articles 86 and 87 of the Ordinance for Enforcement of the Insurance Business Law and the provisions of Notification No. 50 of the Ministry of Finance (1996). The figures as of December 31, 2009 are partly calculated on the simplified method, for example, some bases for the major catastrophe risk calculation are deemed same as the figures as of September 30, 2009.

< Solvency Margin Ratio >

 

   

In addition to reserves to cover claims payments and payments for maturity refunds of saving type insurance policies, etc., it is necessary for insurance companies to maintain sufficient solvency in order to cover against risks which may exceed their normal estimates, i.e. the occurrence of major catastrophes, a big decline in value of assets held by insurance companies, etc.

 

   

Solvency margin ratio (C) above, which is calculated in accordance with the Insurance Business Law, is the ratio of “solvency margin of insurance companies by means of their capital, reserves, etc.” (total solvency margin: (A) above) to “risks which will exceed their normal estimates” (total risks: (B) above).

 

   

“Risks which will exceed their normal estimates” are composed of risks described below.

 

<1> Underwriting risk, underwriting risk for third-sector insurance products including accident, sickness and nursing-care insurance: Risks of occurrence of insurance claims in excess of normal estimates (excluding risks relating to major catastrophes).

 

<2> Guaranteed interest rate risk: Risks of invested assets failing to yield assumed interest rates due to the aggravation of investment conditions than expected.

 

<3> Investment risk: Risks of retained securities and other assets fluctuating in prices in excess of normal estimates.

 

<4> Business management risk: Risks beyond normal estimates arising from business management. (That does not fall under other categories.)

 

<5> Major catastrophe risk: Risks of the occurrence of major catastrophic losses in excess of normal estimates. (risks such as the Great Kanto Earthquake or Isewan typhoon)

 

   

“Solvency margin of insurance companies by means of their capital, reserves, etc.” (total solvency margin ) is the sum of total net assets (excluding planned outflows), certain reserves (reserve for price fluctuation and catastrophic loss reserve, etc.) and parts of net unrealized gains/losses on real estate, etc.

 

   

Solvency margin ratio is one of the indicators for the regulatory authorities to monitor financial soundness of insurance companies. Solvency margin ratio exceeding 200% would indicate adequate capability to meet payments of possible insurance claims.

<Appendix 4> Summary of Guarantee for Corporate CDOs (Excl. Treaty Reinsurance)

The total outstanding of insured corporate CDO (direct underwriting) amounted to 171.0 billion yen as of December 31,2009. As a result of overall scrutiny of the individual contracts, there are no losses expected at this point.

Average residual period of all direct underwritten corporate CDO guarantees is approximately 2.9 years. Approximately 80% of our exposure or 136.0 billion yen is to be redeemed by the end of FY2012.

Each corporate CDO is well diversified with approximately 150 reference corporations. Thus a potential impact by default of one reference company would be limited.

For example, exposures to financial institutions and U.S. automakers (including auto-parts makers) accounts for around 13% and 1%, respectively. We don’t see any concentration to particular sector or corporation.

[Adoption of accounting methods used specifically for the quarterly consolidated financial statements]

 

    

Nine months ended December 31, 2009

(April 1 to December 31, 2009)

Calculation of income taxes

   Income taxes are calculated by applying a reasonably estimated effective tax rate to income before income taxes. The estimated effective tax rate is determined by estimating the effective tax rate after applying deferred tax accounting for the fiscal year, including the third quarter of this fiscal year. When it is remarkably unreasonable to adopt this accounting method, income taxes are calculated by the statutory effective tax rate.
