Total shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2007, was 2.3 trillion yen, an increase of 0.1 trillion yen compared to March 31, 2007, mainly due to an increase in Retained earnings.

Sales of investment trusts remained strong and commissions for the distribution of investment trusts reached a record level since we started reporting results on a quarterly basis under U.S. GAAP in the year ended March 31, 2002. In addition, investment trust administration fees and other increased for the tenth straight quarter. Sales credit grew on the back of strong sales of structured bonds. Stock brokerage commissions, meanwhile, decreased due to a decline in equity agency transaction value.

Domestic Client Assets1 totaled 88.3 trillion yen as of June 30, 2007, a 3.1 trillion yen increase from the end of March 2007, while the number of client accounts with a balance reached 4 million. We are making steady progress towards our target of 100 trillion yen in Domestic Client Assets and 5 million accounts by the end of March 2010.

In Fixed Income, in spite of the deterioration in the US RMBS market, record order flow for interest rate and currency-linked structured bonds led to an increase in net revenue compared to the prior quarter. In Equity, net revenue decreased from the prior quarter due to a decline in MPO trading revenue.

Net revenue increased 38.1% from the previous quarter to 36.7 billion yen. Non-interest expenses increased 6.9% to 16 billion yen, while income before income taxes increased 78.2% to 20.7 billion yen.

The equity underwriting business performed stronger than is normally seen for the first quarter, while M&A-related business enjoyed an increase in activity, and international operations contributed to revenue led by Europe, which has been the focus of a strategic build up. These factors combined to produce a record level of first-quarter net revenue since we started reporting results on a quarterly basis in the year ended March 31, 2002.

In equity financing, we acted as lead manager for such deals as a public offering by Daikin Industries and a secondary offering by Japan Petroleum Exploration. We ranked number one in the Equity and Equity-related (Japan) league table2 for the first half of CY2007.

In M&A, we acted as financial advisor on All Nippon Airways’ sale of its hotel business and the business restructuring of Jupiter TV by Sumitomo Corporation. We also ranked number one in the Any Japanese Involvement Financial Advisors league table2 for M&A Advisory during the first half of CY2007.

Internationally, we acted as global coordinator on Russia’s largest-ever IPO for PIK Group, a major Russian residential property developer, and acted as financial advisor to Vedanta Resources of the UK on its acquisition of an Indian iron ore company from Mitsui & Co.

Net assets in Japan’s publicly offered investment trust market grew to a record level during the quarter thanks to increasing demand for asset management products. In terms of Nomura products, we continued to see strong sales of funds offering frequent distributions such as the My Story Profit Distribution-type Fund. The Nomura Global Contrarian Fund and Nomura RAFI® Japan Equity Fund were newly-launched for distribution by Nomura Securities.

In the bank channel, sales of investment trusts that invest in REITs remained robust, and net assets increased in our Global High Income Stock Fund and Global Three Assets Balance Fund. Japan Post saw a steady increase in net assets for the Nomura Global Six Assets Diversified Fund and started selling the Nomura Asset Design Fund. In our investment advisory business, the balance of advisory contracts continued to increase steadily. As a result, total assets under management in Asset Management increased by 3.6 trillion yen from the end of March to a record 30.6 trillion yen.

Tokyo, July 25, 2007—Nomura Holdings, Inc. today reported consolidated financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2008.

Income before income taxes jumped 71.8% from the prior quarter to 142.8 billion yen (US$1.2 billion), a more than fourfold increase over the same period last year. Net income more than doubled quarter-on-quarter to 76.7 billion yen (US$622 million), an increase of 3.8 times compared to the prior year. ROE for the first quarter was 13.7%.

“All five business divisions performed well during the first quarter. We are currently undertaking a thorough review of our US operations and remain focused on achieving our overall management objectives,” said Nobuyuki Koga, Nomura President and CEO.

The first quarter dividend will be 8.5 yen per share, in line with the target dividend previously announced. Payment of the dividend is planned for September 1, 2007. As September 1 is a Saturday, payment will start on the next business day.

First quarter business segment results

Domestic Retail

In Domestic Retail, despite a decline in first-quarter net revenue compared to the prior quarter, income before income taxes increased 16.8% quarter-on-quarter to 50.6 billion yen.

Domestic Client Assets rose by 3.1 trillion yen from the end of March to 88.3 trillion yen, while client accounts with a balance reached 4 million. Nomura is well on its way to achieving its target of 100 trillion yen in Domestic Client Assets and 5 million accounts by the end of March 2010.

A total of twelve investment trusts saw sales of over 30 billion yen during the quarter. As a result, commissions for the distribution of investment trusts reached 39.6 billion yen, a record level since the start of quarterly reporting. In addition, investment trust administration fees and other increased for the tenth straight quarter. Stock brokerage commissions, meanwhile, decreased 23.3% from the prior quarter to 22.2 billion yen due to a decline in equity agency transaction value.

Global Markets

In Global Markets, net revenue grew from the prior quarter and income before income taxes increased 8.8% quarter-on-quarter to 26.0 billion yen.

Net revenue in Fixed Income jumped 94.8% compared to the prior quarter, as order flow for interest rate and currency-linked structured bonds reached a record level, more than offsetting the 31.2 billion yen loss booked due to deterioration of the US residential mortgage-backed securities market.

Net revenue in Equity declined 7.0% from the previous quarter due primarily to a drop in MPO trading revenue.

Global Investment Banking

In Global Investment Banking, the equity underwriting business performed stronger than is normally seen for the first quarter, the M&A-related business enjoyed an increase in activity, and Nomura’s international operations contributed to revenue led by Europe, which has been the focus of a strategic build up. These factors combined to produce a record level of first-quarter net revenue since the start of quarterly reporting. Income before income taxes increased 78.2% from the prior quarter to 20.7 billion yen.

In equity financing, Nomura acted as lead manager for such deals as a public offering by Daikin Industries and a secondary offering by Japan Petroleum Exploration.

In M&A, Nomura acted as financial advisor on All Nippon Airways’ sale of its hotel business and the business restructuring of Jupiter TV by Sumitomo Corporation.

Internationally, Nomura acted as global coordinator on Russia’s largest-ever IPO for PIK Group, a major Russian residential property developer.

Global Merchant Banking

Global Merchant Banking reported income before income taxes of 40.1 billion yen due to the sale of Deutsche Annington, an investee company of Terra Firma in Europe, and Wanbishi Archives, a Nomura Principal Finance investee company.

Asset Management

In Asset Management, net revenue grew from the prior quarter and income before income taxes increased 52.4% quarter-on-quarter to 12.2 billion yen. Sales of the My Story Profit Distribution-type Fund and other funds offering frequent distributions remained strong. The Nomura Global Contrarian Fund and Nomura RAFI® Japan Equity Fund were launched during the quarter for distribution by Nomura Securities.

In the bank channel, sales of investment trusts that invest in REITs increased. Japan Post saw a steady increase in net assets for the Nomura Global Six Assets Diversified Fund and also began selling the Nomura Asset Design Fund.

In the investment advisory business, the balance of advisory contracts continued to increase steadily. As a result, total assets under management in Asset Management increased by 3.6 trillion yen from the end of March to a record 30.6 trillion yen.
