Nomura provides investment, financing and related services in the capital markets on a global basis. In the global capital markets there exist various uncertainties due to, but not limited to, economic and market conditions. Nomura, therefore, releases its results on a more frequent quarterly basis, and does not present earnings forecasts.

Financial Position

Total liabilities at June 30, 2006 were 29.5 trillion yen, a decrease of 3.5 trillion yen compared to March 31, 2006, due to a decrease in collateralized financing. Total shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2006 was 2,077 billion yen, an increase of 13 billion yen compared to March 31, 2006.

Stock brokerage commissions declined due to a drop in equity transaction values resulting from a correction in the domestic stock market. On the other hand, commissions for distribution of investment trusts remained high, reflecting the delivery of products matched to the diversifying needs of our customers such as funds offering frequent distributions and absolute return funds.

 

Although net asset inflow for the first quarter increased, Domestic Client Assets* declined by 3.8 trillion yen compared to the end of the previous quarter to 76.7 trillion yen, mainly due to the slump in the stock market.

 


* Domestic Client Assets refers to the sum of assets under custody in the Domestic Retail segment (including regional financial institutions) and the Financial Management Division.

In Fixed Income, revenue from the asset finance business eased off from the revenue-generating previous quarter, and trading revenue declined due to slower sales of foreign currency bonds and structured bonds. In Equity, order flow from block trades declined and trading revenue fell due to the stock market decline.

The overall value of equity financing in the market dropped due to seasonal factors. In equity underwriting, we acted as lead manager for such deals as the offering of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group shares by The Resolution and Collection Corporation. We topped the Equity and Equity-Related (Japan) league table* for the six months to June 2006. In our solution business, MPO results for the first quarter totaled eight deals and 342.2 billion yen, including a 300 billion yen deal for Sojitz. In M&A, we acted as financial advisor on such deals as the sale of Wakodo by Sankyo to Asahi Breweries, and the deal to turn Kirin Beverages into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kirin Brewery.

In terms of new investments, NPF conducted a tender offer for Skylark, a major restaurant chain in Japan, via a special purpose vehicle in which it holds the majority stake.

Funds for bank customers and the Nomura Global 6 Assets Diversified Fund distributed by Japan Post saw steady increases in net assets.

Tokyo, July 26, 2006—Nomura Holdings, Inc. today reported consolidated financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2007.

 

Net revenue for the first quarter was 205.9 billion yen (US$1.8 billion)1, a 37% decline from the previous quarter and 10% year-on-year increase. Income before income taxes of 33.4 billion yen (US$292 million) was down 84% quarter-on-quarter and up 9% compared to the prior-year period. Net income declined 84% quarter-on-quarter and increased 2.4 times year-on-year to 20.1 billion yen (US$176 million). ROE for the first quarter was 3.9%.

 

The first quarter dividend will be 8 yen per share, in line with the target dividend previously announced. Payment of the dividend is planned for September 1, 2006.

 

“The first quarter proved tough overall compared to the previous quarter. However, we continue to make steady progress with our strategy to expand into new areas of growth,” said Nobuyuki Koga, Nomura President and CEO.

  Global Markets: Strengthened the functions of Nomura Capital Investment by actively expanding loan-related business; Held Reevaluate Japan seminars in major markets.

First quarter business segment results

 

Total net revenue from business segments for the first quarter was 209.8 billion yen (US$1.8 billion), a 26% decline compared to the previous quarter and 22% year-on-year increase. Income before income taxes from business segments was 54.4 billion yen (US$475 million), down 46% quarter-on-quarter and up 46% from the year-ago quarter.

 

Domestic Retail

 

Net revenue in Domestic Retail was 105.6 billion yen, a sequential decrease of 15% and year-on-year rise of 25%. Income before income taxes declined 17% quarter-on-quarter and increased 40% year-on-year to 42.5 billion yen. Although distribution of investment trusts matched to customer needs was robust during the first quarter, the quarter-on-quarter declines come as equity transaction values dropped on the back of a correction in the domestic stock market.

 

While net asset inflow for the quarter was strong at approximately 2 trillion yen, Domestic Client Assets as of June 30, 2006, declined by 3.8 trillion yen compared to the end of March to 76.7 trillion yen, mainly due to the decline in the stock market.

 

Global Markets

 

Global Markets net revenue decreased 46% quarter-on-quarter and increased 38% compared to the prior-year period to 68.9 billion yen. Income before income taxes of 14.3 billion yen was down 78% from the previous quarter and grew by 15.1 billion yen compared to first quarter of last year. The main factors behind the declines from the previous quarter include: In Fixed Income, softer revenue from the asset finance business and reduced trading revenue due to a decline in sales of foreign currency bonds and structured bonds; and in Equity, a decline in order flow from block trades and lower trading revenue due to the stock market decline.

 

While Global Markets revenue declined overall compared to the previous quarter, operations continue to grow as the securitization business in the Americas steadily expands and the equity derivative business led by Europe starts showing results through going global and strengthening product supply capabilities.

Global Investment Banking

 

In Global Investment Banking, net revenue totaled 18.8 billion yen, a sequential decline of 40% and year-on-year rise of 47%. Income before income taxes declined 67% quarter-on-quarter and increased by 2.6 times year-on-year to 5.6 billion yen. The quarter-on-quarter declines come as the overall value of equity financing in the market dropped due to seasonal factors.

 

In equity underwriting, Nomura acted as lead manager on such deals as the offering of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group shares by The Resolution and Collection Corporation, topping the Equity and Equity-Related (Japan) league table2 for the six months to June 2006. In the solution business, MPO results for the first quarter totaled eight deals and 342.2 billion yen, including a 300 billion yen deal for Sojitz. In M&A, Nomura acted as financial advisor on such deals as the sale of Wakodo by Sankyo to Asahi Breweries, and the deal to turn Kirin Beverages into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kirin Brewery.

 

Global Merchant Banking

 

Global Merchant Banking net revenue totaled 12.1 billion yen and income before income taxes was 9.8 billion yen, due mainly to realized and unrealized gains from the partial sale of Terra Firma investee companies. In addition, gains from the sale of part of Nomura Principal Finance’s (NPF) stake in Resort Solution to Mitsui Fudosan and unrealized gains/losses from investee companies were also booked during the quarter.

 

In terms of new investments, NPF conducted a tender offer for Skylark, a major restaurant chain in Japan, via a special purpose vehicle in which it holds the majority stake. As recently announced, a 94% stake in Skylark was acquired through the tender offer.

 

Asset Management

 

Asset Management net revenue declined 4% quarter-on-quarter and increased 26% year-on-year to 17.6 billion yen. Income before income taxes decreased 9% from the previous quarter and increased 32% year-on-year to 5.2 billion yen.

 

Funds offering frequent distributions such as the My Story Profit Distribution-type Fund continued to expand during the quarter along with newly-lunched funds. As of the end of June, total assets under management in Asset Management declined by 150 billion yen from the end of March 2006 to 23 trillion yen due to the stock market decline.

Assets in the Nomura Global 6 Assets Diversified Fund distributed by Japan Post totaled 166.4 billion yen, representing a 76.4 billion yen increase and 73% market share of funds distributed by Japan Post.
