Earnings, deals and disclosures from Japan's listed financials companies, in English.
Daiwa Securities Group reported ¥1.47tn in operating revenue, ¥720.4bn in net operating revenue, ¥234.5bn in ordinary income and ¥175.3bn in parent profit. The figures are group totals rather than a business-line bridge, but they are enough to show the scale of the latest year.
Aozora Bank's annual report fixes the recovery in audited numbers: parent profit swung to ¥25.7bn from a ¥49.9bn loss, while ordinary income rose to ¥242.3bn from ¥231.5bn. Total assets ended the year at ¥8.60tn and net assets at ¥491.6bn, enough to say the bank finished not just back in the black but on a sturdier balance-sheet footing.
Hirogin's audited annual report shows ordinary income of ¥251.21bn, ordinary profit of ¥62.02bn and parent profit of ¥43.73bn on total assets of ¥12.21tn. A companion control report says Hiroshima Bank still generates about two-thirds of ordinary revenue, which remains the clearest map of where the group earns its keep.
Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Group's audited annual report shows ordinary income of ¥2.98tn, profit attributable of ¥317.6bn, trust fees of ¥125.4bn and total assets of ¥82.17tn. The more durable signal is the fee line: trust fees rose from ¥120.9bn a year earlier even as the balance sheet expanded, suggesting the franchise grew on more than bulk alone.
The bank reported ordinary income of ¥33,674,000,000, ordinary profit of ¥3,134,000,000 and profit attributable to owners of parent of ¥2,000,000,000 for the year to March 2026. Total assets ended the year at ¥1,813,848,000,000, a clear step away from the loss-making year to March 2024.
Premium and other income rose to ¥6,944,066,000,000 in the year to March 2026, but investment income made the bigger jump, reaching ¥3,735,313,000,000. Ordinary income was nearly flat at ¥753,688,000,000, while total assets ended the year at ¥74,159,096,000,000.
The insurer authorized market purchases of up to 12 million shares, or 2.50% of shares outstanding excluding treasury stock, between June 8 and September 30. In a separate T&D Financial Life sale filing, it said about half of the after-tax proceeds are earmarked for future shareholder returns after closing, making this look more like a capital-allocation sequence than a one-off gesture.
Simplex Financial Holdings posted revenue of ¥22.5 billion for the year ended March 2026, up from ¥16.3 billion, while net profit attributable to owners climbed to ¥10.6 billion from ¥7.1 billion. Management says assets under management rose 2.9%, but performance fees jumped 53.6%, which is where most of the operating leverage showed up. Split-adjusted earnings per share were ¥317.33 versus ¥137.14 a year earlier, and cash and cash equivalents finished March at ¥23.6 billion. The company is not giving earnings guidance for the current year and has left the dividend forecast undecided.
Bottom line: Akatsuki Honsha sees revenue holding at ¥70,000 million in the year to March 2027, but profits easing as it takes a conservative view on market-sensitive securities earnings and slimmer property margins. Its new five-year plan targets average ROE above 15%, with explicit end-goals for IFA client assets and used-condominium volumes, while excluding any future realization of gains on the investment securities portfolio.
