Consolidated Financial Results

April 1, 2015 – March 31, 2016

 

 

May 10, 2016

In preparing its consolidated financial information, ORIX Corporation and its subsidiaries have complied with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

These documents may contain forward-looking statements about expected future events and financial results that involve risks and uncertainties. Such statements are based on our current expectations and are subject to uncertainties and risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those described under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company believes that it will be considered a “passive foreign investment company” for United States Federal income tax purposes in the year to which these consolidated financial results relate and for the foreseeable future by reason of the composition of its assets and the nature of its income. A U.S. holder of the shares or ADSs of the Company is therefore subject to special rules generally intended to eliminate any benefits from the deferral of U.S. Federal income tax that a holder could derive from investing in a foreign corporation that does not distribute all of its earnings on a current basis. Investors should consult their tax advisors with respect to such rules, which are summarized in the Company’s annual report.

Economic Environment

The world economy has been suppressed with low level of growth due primarily to falling commodity prices such as the price of crude oil and fluctuations in financial markets. Moderate economic growth is expected among developed countries. Meanwhile, economic growth in emerging and developing countries is expected to be weak overall and disparity in economic growth among such countries continues to widen. In addition, political and geopolitical tensions in certain regions need to be monitored carefully.

The Japanese economic outlook is becoming increasingly unclear due primarily to economic slowdown in emerging countries and the adoption of negative interest rate policy by the Bank of Japan in the second half of the fiscal year despite positive corporate earnings during the first half.

Overview of Business Performance (April 1, 2015 to March 31, 2016)

Total revenues for the consolidated fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 (hereinafter, “the fiscal year”) increased 9% to ¥2,369,202 million compared to ¥2,174,283 million during the previous fiscal year. Finance revenues increased due primarily to an increase in the average balance of installment loans. In addition, sales of goods and real estate increased due primarily to revenues generated by subsidiaries acquired during the previous fiscal year. Meanwhile, given the significant market improvement during the previous fiscal year, life insurance premiums and related investment income for the fiscal year decreased on a year-on-year basis, due to a significant decrease in investment income from variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts held by Hartford Life Insurance K.K. (hereinafter, “HLIKK”). HLIKK was merged into ORIX Life Insurance Corporation (hereinafter, “ORIX Life Insurance”) on July 1, 2015.

Total expenses increased 9% to ¥2,081,461 million compared to ¥1,917,454 million during the previous fiscal year. Costs of goods and real estate sold increased in line with the aforementioned revenue increases. On the other hand, life insurance costs decreased due to a reversal of liability reserve in line with the aforementioned decrease in investment income from variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts held by HLIKK. In addition, write-downs of long-lived assets decreased compared to the previous fiscal year in which an impairment of large-scale properties under facility operation and leased real estate was recorded.

Equity in net income of affiliates increased due primarily to an increase in the income from the affiliates in the Americas. Gains on sales of subsidiaries and affiliates and liquidation losses, net increased compared to the previous fiscal year due primarily to the recognition of a gain on the partial divestment of shares of Houlihan Lokey, Inc. (hereinafter, “HL”), in connection with its initial public offering in the United States and its becoming an equity method affiliate.

As a result of the foregoing, income before income taxes and discontinued operations for the fiscal year increased 14% to ¥391,302 million compared to ¥344,017 million during the previous fiscal year, and net income attributable to ORIX Corporation shareholders increased 11% to ¥260,169 million compared to ¥234,948 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment Information

Total segment profits for the fiscal year increased 13% to ¥380,110 million compared to ¥336,542 million during the previous fiscal year. While profits from the Retail segment decreased compared to the previous fiscal year in which a bargain purchase gain resulted from the acquisition of HLIKK was recorded, all segments other than Retail segment continued to show strong performance and contributed largely to the overall increase in total segment profits.

Segment information for the fiscal year is as follows:

The Japanese economic outlook is becoming increasingly unclear due primarily to economic slowdown in emerging countries and the adoption of negative interest rate policy by the Bank of Japan in the second half of the fiscal year despite positive corporate earnings during the first half. The balance of outstanding loan at financial institutions continues to increase and interest rates on loans remain at low levels.

Segment revenues increased 25% to ¥107,150 million compared to ¥85,502 million during the previous fiscal year due to increases in services income and sales of goods primarily from revenue generated by Yayoi Co., Ltd. (hereinafter, “Yayoi”), which we acquired on December 22, 2014, and a robust fee business that serves domestic small- and medium-sized enterprise customers. In addition, gains on sales of investment securities were recognized during the fiscal year, which offset a decrease in finance revenues in line with the decreased average balance of installment loans.

While segment expenses increased compared to the previous fiscal year due primarily to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses following the consolidation of Yayoi, segment profits increased 66% to ¥42,418 million compared to ¥25,519 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets decreased 7% to ¥1,049,867 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to decreases in installment loans and investment in direct financing leases.

Revenues have been growing through the high value-added services provided towards the demands in capital investment for boosting competitiveness and further cost reduction while corporate capital investment in general has been decreasing. The volume of new auto leases in Japan during the fiscal year was similar to the level of the previous fiscal year.

Segment revenues increased 3% to ¥271,662 million from ¥263,499 million during the previous fiscal year due primarily to increases in operating leases revenues and finance revenues resulting from the steady expansion of assets in the automobile business and in services income derived from value-added services such as maintenance.

Despite an increase in segment expenses due primarily to increases in the costs of operating leases, services expense, and selling, general and administrative expenses, which were in line with revenue growth, segment profits increased 6% to ¥42,935 million compared to ¥40,366 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets increased 10% to ¥731,329 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to an increase in leasing assets, mainly in the automobile business.

The real estate market has remained active due primarily to the quantitative easing policy of the Bank of Japan, including the adoption of negative interest rates. Land prices have been high and office rents and vacancy rates in the Japanese office building market continue to show signs of improvement especially in the Greater Tokyo area. Furthermore, due to an increase in the number of tourists from abroad, we are seeing increases in the occupancy rates and average daily rates of hotels and Japanese inns. Meanwhile, we are also seeing a trend where sales prices of condominiums stopped rising and domestic property acquisitions by foreign funds decreasing.

Segment revenues increased 5% to ¥191,540 million compared to ¥182,321 million during the previous fiscal year due primarily to an increase in services income from the facility operation business, despite a decrease in rental revenues, which are included in operating leases revenues, in line with a decrease in the balance of real estate assets.

Segment expenses decreased compared to the previous fiscal year due primarily to a decrease in write-downs of long-lived assets and decreases in interest expense and costs of operating leases in line with decreased asset balance.

As a result of the foregoing, segment profits increased significantly by approximately twelve times to ¥42,902 million compared to ¥3,484 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets decreased 11% to ¥739,592 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to a decrease in investment in operating leases, which resulted from sales of rental properties, and a decrease in installment loans and investment in securities.

In Japan, while the government is reassessing its renewable energy purchase program, the significance of renewable energy in the mid- to long- term is on the rise with investment targets expanding beyond solar power generation projects to include wind and geothermal power generation projects. In the capital market, since January 2016, size of merger and acquisitions (hereinafter “M&A”) transactions appear to have decreased despite an increase in the total number of M&A transactions closed during the fiscal year compared to previous fiscal year in which several large cross-border M&A transactions took place.

Segment revenues increased 54% to ¥1,028,355 million compared to ¥666,120 million during the previous fiscal year due primarily to a significant increase in sales of goods and real estate contributed by subsidiaries acquired during the previous fiscal year and an increase in gains on sale of condominium by DAIKYO INCORPORATED (hereinafter, “DAIKYO”). An increase in the amount of services income from the environment and energy-related business also contributed.

Segment expenses also increased compared to the previous fiscal year due to an increase in expenses in connection with acquired subsidiaries including DAIKYO and the environment and energy-related business, each of which increased in line with segment revenues expansion.

As a result of the foregoing and the recognition of gains on sales of shares of subsidiaries, segment profits increased 35% to ¥57,220 million compared to ¥42,414 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets increased 7% to ¥704,156 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to an increase in property under facility operations in the environment and energy-related business and investment in affiliates resulting from the investment in the facility operation business of the Kansai and Osaka International Airports. Meanwhile, installment loans, investment in securities and inventories decreased.

Although the life insurance business in Japan is affected by macroeconomic factors such as population decline, we are seeing an increasing number of companies launching new insurance products in response to the rising demand for medical insurance. On the other hand, with the introduction of negative interest rate policy, we are also seeing certain discontinued products and increased insurance premium for new contract. In the consumer finance sector, banks and other lenders are expanding their assets to further secure new revenue streams, and competition in the lending business continues to intensify on the back of the current low interest rate environment.

Segment revenues decreased 40% to ¥254,289 million compared to ¥425,977 million during the previous fiscal year due to a significant decrease in investment income from variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts held by HLIKK, offsetting a steady increase in life insurance revenue generated by ORIX Life Insurance and an increase in finance revenues in the banking business.

Segment expenses decreased compared to the previous fiscal year due primarily to a reversal of liability reserve for the aforementioned decrease in investment income of HLIKK.

As a result of the foregoing and the recognition of a bargain purchase gain from the acquisition of HLIKK last fiscal year, segment profits decreased 57% to ¥51,756 million compared to ¥120,616 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets decreased 6% to ¥3,462,772 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to a substantial decrease in investment in securities held by HLIKK, offsetting an increase in installment loans in the banking business.

The world economy has been suppressed with low level of growth due primarily to falling commodity prices such as the price of crude oil and fluctuations in financial markets. While moderate economic growth is expected among developed countries, economic growth in emerging and developing countries is expected to be weak overall and disparity in economic growth among such countries continues to widen. In addition, political and geopolitical tensions in certain regions need to be monitored carefully.

Segment revenues decreased 6% to ¥526,008 million compared to ¥561,893 million during the previous fiscal year due to a decrease in gains on sales of investment securities and the deconsolidation of HL, despite increases in sales of goods and finance revenues in the Americas, and increases in operating leases revenues in Asia.

Segment expenses decreased compared to the previous fiscal year due to the deconsolidation of HL, despite an increase in costs of operating leases.

Segment profits increased 37% to ¥142,879 million compared to ¥104,143 million in the previous fiscal year due primarily to the recognition of a gain on the partial divestment of HL shares in connection with its initial public offering in the United States and an increase in income from affiliates in the Americas.

Segment assets increased 5% to ¥2,284,733 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to an increase in investment in operating leases by the aircraft-related operations and an increase in corporate lending in the Americas and an increase in installment loans resulted from the acquisition of an auto loan company in Asia.

Note:  

Shareholders’ Equity refers to ORIX Corporation Shareholders’ Equity based on US-GAAP. Shareholders’ Equity Per Share is calculated using total ORIX Corporation Shareholders’ Equity.

Total assets decreased 4% to ¥10,996,906 million compared to ¥11,443,628 million at the end of the previous fiscal year. Installment loans increased due primarily to an increase in the banking business in Japan and increase in corporate lending in the Americas and installment loans resulted from the acquisition of an auto loan company in Asia. In addition, investment in operating leases increased due primarily to purchases of aircrafts in the Overseas Business segment. Meanwhile, investment in securities decreased due primarily to surrender of variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts held by HLIKK and a decrease in investment income from these contracts. Segment assets decreased 2% to ¥8,972,449 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year.

We manage our balance of interest-bearing liabilities at an appropriate level taking into account the condition of assets, our liquidity on hand as well as the domestic and overseas financial environments. As a result, long- and short-term debt decreased and deposits increased compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. In addition, policy liabilities and policy account balances decreased compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due to the surrender of variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts held by HLIKK and a reversal of liability reserve in line with the decrease in investment income as mentioned above.

Shareholders’ equity increased 7% to ¥2,310,431 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to an increase in retained earnings.

Summary of Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by ¥97,098 million to ¥730,420 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year.

Cash flows provided by operating activities were ¥510,562 million during the fiscal year, up from ¥257,611 million during the previous fiscal year due primarily to an increase in net income and a decrease in a decrease in policy liabilities and policy account balances.

Cash flows used in investing activities were ¥552,529 million during the fiscal year, up from ¥467,801 million during the previous fiscal year. This change was primarily due to increases in purchases of lease equipment and investment in affiliates, in addition to decreases in proceeds from sales of operating lease assets and principal collected on installment loans.

Cash flows used in financing activities were ¥48,001 million during the fiscal year compared to the inflow of ¥213,432 million during the previous fiscal year. This change was primarily due to an increase in repayment of debt with maturities longer than three months.

(3) Profit Distribution Policy and Dividends for the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2016 and the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2017

ORIX aims to increase shareholder value by utilizing profits earned from business activities that were secured primarily as retained earnings, to strengthen its business foundation and make investments for future growth. At the same time, ORIX strives to make stable and sustainable distribution of dividends at the level in line with its business performance.

Based on this fundamental, dividend is paid twice in the fiscal year and the annual dividend is raised to 45.75 yen per share (interim dividend paid is 22.00 yen per share and year-end dividend is 23.75 yen per share) from 36.00 yen per share in the previous fiscal year.

With regards to the decision of share buyback, ORIX aims to act with flexibility and swiftness while considering various factors such as the adequate level of the Company’s retained earnings, the soundness of financial condition and external factors such as changes in the business environment and share price valuation and its trend.

For the next fiscal year ending on March 31, 2017, we will continue to focus on the optimal balance between securing capital for investment in future profit growth and providing the appropriate level of dividend to shareholders. Furthermore, dividend distribution for the next fiscal year is also scheduled twice a year with an interim dividend and a year-end dividend. The interim dividend for the next fiscal year is projected at 23.00 yen per share. The year-end dividend for the next fiscal year is to be determined.

(4) Risk Factors

With the announcement of our results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, we believe no additional items have arisen concerning “Risk Factors” as stated in our latest Form 20-F submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 25, 2015.

(2) Target Performance Indicators

In its pursuit of sustainable growth, ORIX uses the following performance indicators: Net income attributable to ORIX Corporation shareholders to indicate profitability, ROE to indicate capital efficiency and ROA to indicate asset efficiency. ORIX aims to achieve a mid-term net income target of ¥300 billion for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018, and to maintain ROE around 11% to 12% by striving to increase asset efficiency through quality asset expansion to capture business opportunities along with increased capital efficiency by strengthening profit-earning opportunities such as fee-based businesses.

Three-year trends in performance indicators are as follows.

(3) Medium-Term Management Targets

ORIX continues to provide innovative and flexible solutions to address changes in the market environment and customer needs. ORIX’s diversified business portfolio consists of six business segments: Corporate Financial Services, Maintenance Leasing, Real Estate, Investment and Operation, Retail, and Overseas Business. These business segments are closely integrated with each other to create greater value through sharing know-how and expertise.

ORIX, using its diversified business portfolio as a basis, intends to capitalize on its business foundation, client base, industry know-how and accumulated expertise, to continuously improve profitability by providing high value-added services to the market. Furthermore, under our mid-term strategy of “Expansion in Non-Finance Business”, ORIX aims to achieve sustainable profit growth.

Our strategy of “Expansion in Non-Finance Business” consists of “Organic growth” and “New investment in key areas”. With these principles, we will pursue new business arising from the changing business environment.

“Organic growth”: Deepen our strengths and expertise to further expand our existing operations both in Japan and abroad. Those in Japan include fee business, automobile-related business, facility operation business, and life insurance business. Those abroad include automobile-related business, and further diversification towards non-finance business.

“New investment in key areas”: Continue to pursue new investment opportunities in key areas identified as the environment and energy-related business and principal investment in Japan and abroad, the network in Asia, global asset management, and concession business.

(4) Corporate Challenges to be Addressed

It is vital for ORIX to continue to maintain and develop a business structure that can be flexibly and swiftly adapted to the changing business environment. ORIX will take the following three steps in order to achieve the aforementioned mid-term management targets.

 

  1. Further advancement of risk management

 

  2. Pursue transactions that are both socially responsible and economically viable

 

  3. Create a fulfilling workplace

 

1.

Further advancement of risk management: Fortify ORIX’s growth-supporting risk management foundation by enhancing the expertise necessary to manage risk, and further refining the ability to discern good risks from bad ones.

 

2.

Pursue transactions that are both socially responsible and economically viable: Pursue transactions that are socially responsible from a social and environmental standpoint while providing products and services that are valued by clients and improve ORIX’s overall profitability.

 

3.

Create a fulfilling workplace: Focus on ORIX’s strengths as a global organization to create a fulfilling work environment for all employees regardless of nationality, age, gender, background or position.

Note 1:

The Company evaluates the performance of segments based on income before income taxes and discontinued operations, adjusted for results of discontinued operations, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests and net income attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interests before applicable tax effect. Tax expenses are not included in segment profits.

Note 2:

For certain VIEs that are used for securitization and are consolidated in accordance with ASC 810 (“Consolidations”), for which the VIE’s assets can be used only to settle related obligations of those VIEs and the creditors (or beneficial interest holders) do not have recourse to other assets of the Company or its subsidiaries, segment assets are measured based on the amount of the Company and its subsidiaries’ net investments in the VIEs, which is different from the amount of total assets of the VIEs, and accordingly, segment revenues are also measured at a net amount representing the revenues earned on the net investments in the VIEs. Certain gains or losses related to assets and liabilities of consolidated VIEs, which are not ultimately attributable to the Company and its subsidiaries, are excluded from segment profits.

Note 3:

Inter-segment transactions have been included in segment revenues, and eliminations of inter-segment transactions have been included in difference between segment total and consolidated amounts.
