Consolidated Financial Results

April 1, 2016 – March 31, 2017

 

 

May 15, 2017

In preparing its consolidated financial information, ORIX Corporation (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries have complied with generally accepted accounting principles 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 may have been a “passive foreign investment company” for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the year to which these consolidated financial results relate by reason of the composition of its assets and the nature of its income. In addition, the Company may be a PFIC for the foreseeable future. Assuming that the Company is a PFIC, a U.S. holder of the shares or ADSs of the Company will be 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.

Operating Environment

The economy of the United States has been on a continuing trend of recovery with improvements in employment and income environments. The economy of Europe has picked up moderately, the Chinese economy is still in a correction phase and the economies of emerging and resource-rich countries have bottomed out. Although interest rates remain low worldwide, the prospect of rising interest rates has been strong in the United States. In addition, there are political and geopolitical tensions in certain regions that need to be monitored carefully.

The Japanese economy on the whole has been in a moderate recovery phase despite some areas of weakness.

Overview of Business Performance (April 1, 2016 to March 31, 2017)

 

 

Net income attributable to ORIX Corporation shareholders increased 5% to ¥273,239 million compared to the previous fiscal year.

 

 

ROE was 11.3%.

Total revenues for the consolidated fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 (hereinafter, “the fiscal year”) increased 13% to ¥2,678,659 million compared to ¥2,369,202 million during the previous fiscal year. Operating leases revenues increased mainly due to an increase in gains on sales of real estate under operating leases, and sales of goods and real estate increased due to an increase in revenues generated by subsidiaries in the principal investment business. In addition, life insurance premiums and related investment income increased due to increases in insurance premiums in line with an increase in new insurance contracts and investment income in ORIX Life Insurance Corporation (hereinafter, “ORIX Life Insurance”), and an improvement in investment income from assets under variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts originally held by Hartford Life Insurance K.K. (hereinafter, “HLIKK”) compared to the previous fiscal year during which investment income decreased due to deterioration of the market environment.

Total expenses increased 13% to ¥2,349,435 million compared to ¥2,081,461 million during the previous fiscal year. Costs of goods and real estate sold increased in line with the aforementioned increased revenues. In addition, life insurance costs increased due to an increase in a provision of liability reserve in line with the aforementioned increase in new insurance contracts and the improvement in investment income from assets under variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts.

Equity in net income of affiliates decreased due to an impact from an increase in income from the affiliates in the Americas during the previous fiscal year.

As a result of the foregoing, income before income taxes for the fiscal year increased 9% to ¥424,965 million compared to ¥391,302 million during the previous fiscal year, and net income attributable to ORIX Corporation shareholders increased 5% to ¥273,239 million compared to ¥260,169 million during the previous fiscal year.

The Japanese economy on the whole entered a moderate recovery phase despite some areas of weakness. While interest rates overall increased along with the United States economy, the balance of outstanding loans at financial institutions continues to increase and interest rates on loans remain at low levels.

Segment revenues decreased 4% to ¥102,979 million compared to ¥107,150 million during the previous fiscal year due to a decrease in finance revenues in line with decreased average investment balance and a decrease in gains on sales of securities, despite an increase in services income resulting primarily from revenue generated by Yayoi Co. Ltd. (hereinafter, “Yayoi”), and from our stable fee business to domestic small-and medium-sized enterprise customers.

Segment expenses increased due primarily to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses. As a result, segment profits decreased 10% to ¥38,032 million compared to ¥42,418 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets decreased 2% to ¥1,032,152 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to a decrease in installment loans.

While demand in corporate capital investment has been gradually increasing, concerns about uncertainty in the domestic and overseas economic outlook deter new investment. The volume of new auto-leases in Japan increased slightly compared to the previous fiscal year.

Segment revenues remained flat at ¥270,615 million compared to the previous fiscal year due to decreases in operating leases revenues primarily resulting from lower gains on sales of automobiles, offsetting an increase in finance revenues.

Segment expenses increased due primarily to increases in costs of operating leases in line with increased average investment asset balance in the auto-business and selling, general and administrative expenses. As a result, segment profits decreased 7% to ¥39,787 million compared to ¥42,935 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets increased 3% to ¥752,513 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to an increase in new auto-leases in the auto-business.

Real Estate Segment: Real estate development and rental, facility operation, REIT asset management, and real estate investment advisory services

 

 

Given the current favorable market environment, gains on sales of real estate properties increased.

Land prices remain high and vacancy rates in the Japanese office building market continue to show improvements, especially in the Greater Tokyo Area due primarily to the quantitative easing policies implemented by the Bank of Japan, including the low interest rate environment. However, we are also seeing a trend where sales prices of condominiums are no longer increasing. Changes in tourism style such as uses of vacation rentals are affecting hotels and Japanese inns’ operation.

Segment revenues increased 11% to ¥212,050 million compared to ¥191,540 million during the previous fiscal year due primarily to an increase in gains on sales of rental properties, which are included in operating leases revenues.

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

As a result of the foregoing, segment profits increased 70% to ¥72,841 million compared to ¥42,902 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets decreased 11% to ¥657,701 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.

Investment and Operation Segment: Environment and energy business, principal investment, loan servicing (asset recovery), and concession business

Investment in infrastructure, especially energy infrastructure, is diversifying in Japan. In the energy business, among renewable energy, investment is expanding beyond solar power to wind and geothermal power. In addition, business structures are also diversifying. In infrastructure investment markets, the use of private funds is expanding in the public facilities management. In emerging countries, infrastructure demand is growing rapidly with economic growth, and Japanese companies are expected to increase infrastructure investment. In the capital markets, the number of mergers and acquisitions by Japanese companies has remained high.

Segment revenues increased 24% to ¥1,271,973 million compared to ¥1,028,355 million during the previous fiscal year due to increases in sales of goods and services income from the environment and energy business and subsidiaries in the principal investment business.

Segment expenses increased compared to the previous fiscal year due to an increase in expenses in line with the aforementioned revenues expansion and recognition of write-downs of securities.

As a result of the foregoing and the recognition of gains on sales of shares of subsidiaries and affiliates, and the recognition of a bargain purchase gain from the acquisition of a subsidiary, segment profits increased 49% to ¥85,000 million compared to ¥57,220 million during the previous fiscal year.

The life insurance business in Japan is currently affected by macroeconomic factors such as domestic population decline. However, we are seeing a rise in demand for medical insurance and an increasing number of companies developing new products in response. On the other hand, we are also seeing suspensions of the sales of certain products and an increase in insurance premiums on new contracts due primarily to the Bank of Japan’s adoption of negative interest rate policy. In the card loan business for individuals, banks and other lenders are expanding their assets and competition in the lending business continues to intensify in the current low interest rate environment.

Segment revenues increased 45% to ¥368,665 million compared to ¥254,289 million during the previous fiscal year mainly due to increases in insurance premiums in line with an increase in new insurance contracts and investment income in ORIX Life Insurance, and an improvement in investment income from assets under variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts originally held by HLIKK compared to the previous fiscal year during which investment income decreased due to deterioration of the market environment.

Segment expenses increased compared to the previous fiscal year due to an increase in a provision of liability reserve in line with the aforementioned increase in new insurance contracts and the improvement in investment income from assets under variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts.

As a result of the foregoing, segment profits increased 41% to ¥72,865 million compared to ¥51,756 million during the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets decreased 5% to ¥3,291,631 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due primarily to sales of investment in securities at ORIX Life Insurance as well as the surrender of variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts originally held by HLIKK, offsetting an increase in installment loans in the banking business.

The economy of the United States has been on a continuing trend of recovery with improvements in employment and income environments. The economy of Europe has picked up moderately, the Chinese economy is still in a correction phase and the economies of emerging and resource-rich countries have bottomed out. Although interest rates remain low worldwide, the prospect of rising interest rates has been strong in the United States. The asset management industry is expected to increase AuM due to the increase in pension assets and the high-income class population over the mid- and long-term. Also, the aviation industry is expected to continue to expand its market size against the backdrop of increasing passenger demand mainly in emerging countries. In addition, there are political and geopolitical tensions in certain regions that need to be monitored carefully.

Segment revenues decreased 13% to ¥458,912 million compared to ¥526,008 million during the previous fiscal year due to decreases in services income resulting primarily from the deconsolidation of Houlihan Lokey Inc. (hereinafter, “HL”) in line with the partial divestment of its shares in the previous fiscal year, and decreases in sales of goods due to a sale of a subsidiary during the fiscal year, despite an increase in finance revenues from the Americas and Asia.

Segment expenses decreased compared to the previous fiscal year due primarily to the deconsolidation of HL.

As a result of the foregoing and due to the recognition of a gain on the partial divestment of HL shares in the previous fiscal year and the impact from strong yen, despite gains on sales of subsidiaries and affiliates in the Americas, segment profits decreased 21% to ¥112,312 million compared to ¥142,879 million in the previous fiscal year.

Segment assets increased 7% to ¥2,454,200 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year due to increases in installment loans in Asia and the Americas and investment in securities in the Americas as well as an increase in investment in operating leases of aircraft-related operations.

Prior-year amounts have been adjusted for the retrospective application of Accounting Standards Update 2015-03 (“Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”-ASC 835-30 (“Interest-Imputation of Interest”)) on April 1, 2016.

Total assets increased 2% to ¥11,231,895 million compared to ¥10,992,918 million at the end of the previous fiscal year. Installment loans increased due primarily to an increase of assets in the banking business. On the other hand, investment in operating leases decreased due primarily to sales of rental properties and investment in securities decreased due primarily to sales of investment in securities in ORIX Life Insurance as well as the surrender of contracts originally held by HLIKK. In addition, segment assets remained flat at ¥8,956,872 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year.

We manage the balance of interest-bearing liabilities at an appropriate level taking into account the condition of assets and 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 due primarily to the aforementioned surrender of contracts.

Shareholders’ equity increased 9% to ¥2,507,698 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 increased by ¥309,450 million to ¥1,039,870 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year.

Cash flows provided by operating activities were ¥583,955 million during the fiscal year, up from ¥510,562 million during the previous fiscal year, primarily resulting from a change from an increase to a decrease in trade notes, accounts and other receivable and a decrease in a decrease in trade notes, accounts and other payable.

Cash flows used in investing activities were ¥237,608 million during the fiscal year, down from ¥552,529 million during the previous fiscal year, primarily resulting from a decrease in purchases of available-for-sale securities.

Cash flows used in financing activities were ¥33,459 million during the fiscal year, down from ¥48,001 million during the previous fiscal year, primarily resulting from an increase in deposits due to customers.

(3) Profit Distribution Policy and Dividends for the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2017 and the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2018

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 policy, the annual dividend is 52.25 yen per share (interim dividend paid was 23.00 yen per share and year-end dividend is 29.25 yen per share) from 45.75 yen per share in the previous fiscal year.

For the next fiscal year ending March 31, 2018, we will continue to focus on the optimal balance of securing capital for investment in future profit growth and providing an appropriate level of dividends to shareholders. The interim dividend for the next fiscal year is projected at 27.00 yen per share. The year-end dividend for the next fiscal year is to be determined.

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 and its trend.

(4) Risk Factors

With the announcement of our results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, 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 23, 2016.

(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.

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.

 

- 11 -


Table of Contents

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 business and private equity 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: Recognizing that business expansion and growth has diversified and globalized our risk, support our growth by strengthening the business foundation by readily and continuously utilizing our risk management structure and our ability to assess risks.

 

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.

3. Consideration in the Selection of Accounting Standard

We have been preparing our financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. We believe that US GAAP is the accounting standard that most appropriately reflects our business activities in our financial reporting.

Reporting in US GAAP enables us to maintain consistency and comparability with past financial results and we believe that is beneficial to our stakeholders.

Note 1:

The Company evaluates the performance of segments based on income before income taxes, adjusted for 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 those VIEs that are used for securitization and are consolidated, 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 are included in segment revenues, and eliminations of inter-segment transactions are included in difference between segment total and consolidated amounts.

 

Note 4:

Prior-year amounts have been adjusted for the retrospective application of Accounting Standards Update 2015-03 (“Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”-ASC 835-30 (“Interest-Imputation of Interest”)) on April 1, 2016.
