■ Business overview

  • Net interest income*4 grew by 6.4 billion yen year-on-year, 3.7 billion yen of which represented domestic growth, as a result of ALM operations based upon higher yen interest rates
  • Aozora’s Strategic Investments Business, the Bank’s focused area, remained strong mainly in corporate lending, LBO financing and renewable energy financing transactions
  • GMO Aozora Net Bank (GANB) achieved profitability in terms of both business profit and net income in 3Q for the first time since the launch of the business

■ Balance sheet repositioning

  • U.S. non-recourse office loans:
    Workouts progressed and the number of “In Danger of Bankruptcy” borrowers declined to 13, from 21 as of December 31, 2023 when Aozora started the workout process. Outstanding balances also decreased by US$290 million (approximately 40%) from US$719 million to US$428 million
  • Securities portfolio:
    The net risk balance of legacy assets was maintained at zero. Unrealized losses were within controllable levels in line with the plan for FY2024

■ Progress on the capital and business alliance with Daiwa Securities Group

  • The alliance got off to a good start as Aozora began to provide corporate finance (including investments and loans to start-ups) to customers referred by Daiwa Securities Group as well as real estate finance and other financial products

■ 3Q dividend: 19 yen per common share (full-year dividend forecast: 76 yen per common share)

  1. Percentage progress towards full-year earnings forecast
  2. Business profit + Gains/losses on stock transactions
