Described below is the summary of Q&A session with institutional investors and securities analysts at the オンライン カジノ 無料16 2Q results conference call held on November 18, 2016.
- Q1The changeオンライン カジノ 無料n definitionオンライン カジノ 無料n measurement method of MCEV had an impact on ESR. Excluding thiオンライン カジノ 無料mpact, how much was ESR as of the end of September 2016?
- A1
As a result of the changes in definitions in measurement method of MCEV, an increase in net asset value had a positive impact on ESR by the same amount as explained on page 29 of “Overview of 2Q オンライン カジノ 無料16 Results and Full-Year Projections”, and a decrease in risk capital also had a positive impact on ESR. As we haven’t disclosed the details of risk capital, we appreciate your understanding on the non-disclosure of specific ESR level excluding the effects of changes in definitions in measurement method.
- Q2The revised projection of adjusted net income for オンライン カジノ 無料16 increased by 1 billion yen from the original projections. How much does the appreciation of the yen have an impact on it? In addition, is it right in thinking that the depreciation of the yen since October has positive impact on the projections?
- A2
We made the original projections based on FX rate at the end of March 2016 and the revised projections on the rate at the end of September 2016. Because of the appreciation of the yen in the time between, on financial accounting basis, profit in international insurance business decreased by approx. 14 billion yen while net income at TMNF increased by approx. 12 billion yen. On a full year basis, 1 yen appreciation brings positive impact of 1 billion yen to TMNF and negative impact of 1 billion yen to in international insurance businesオンライン カジノ 無料n terms of profit on financial accounting basis. However, on adjusted net income basis, since the effect of a decrease in amortization of intangible asset which was recognized at the time of acquisition is excluded, negative impact from the appreciation of the yen becomes larger. In case of the depreciation of the yen, the opposite occurs.
- Q3In domestic non-life business (TMNF), underwriting profit excluding the effect of catastrophe loss reserves, natural catastrophes and FX rate changes seems to increase by approx. 30 billion yen YoY. When we apply the same calculation for full year projections, YoY increase seemed to become approx. 39 billion yen. I would like to know the reason why the improvement is mainly in the 1H.
- A3
In the first half of オンライン カジノ 無料15, there was a downward pressure on profit owing to the last minutes demand for fire insurance before the product revision of long-term policies. On the contrary, the second half of オンライン カジノ 無料15 had positive factors such as light snowfall and favorable underwriting results in auto.
- Q4In international insurance business, how much natural catastrophe losses do you project in the revised projections? I would like to know the amount of natural catastrophe losseオンライン カジノ 無料ncurred in the first half as well as those incurred in the second half such as Hurricane Matthew.
- A4
We originally projected natural catastrophe losses to be approx. 47 billion yen before tax, and then revised downward to approx. 36 billion yen considering FX rate and fewer occurrences of natural disasters so far than expected. In the first half, natural catastrophe losses resulted in approx. 15.2 billion yen. With regards to Hurricane Matthew, we are now gathering the figures, but it seems to be some billions yen and within the range of losses projected for the second half.
- Q5Projection for consolidated net income was revised upward by 15 billion yen from the original projections. I would like to know the effect of FX rate on it. In addition, iオンライン カジノ 無料t right to understand that the effect of FX rate is offset among business domains on consolidated basis and the effect remains only in the element of consolidation adjustments?
- A5
The effect of FX rate on consolidated net income is an increase of 12 billion yen at TMNF and a decrease of 12.5 billion yen in international insurance.
(Note added at the time of website release: Please refer to A2 regarding the FX effect on revised projections compared to the original projections)- Q5(2)What is the impact of the FX rate to net incurred losses at TMNF?
- A5(2)
In 2Q オンライン カジノ 無料16 results, amount of a decrease in provision for reserves for foreign currency denominated outstanding claims due to the appreciation of the yen is 10.2 billion yen before tax. As a result, net incurred losses in the revised full-year projections decreased by approx. 30 billion yen before tax from the original projections, of which approx. 10 billion yen is owing to the appreciation of the yen.
- Q6I think Typhoon No. 9 (Mindulle), No.10 (Lionrock), and No.16 (Malakas), and Kumamoto Earthquake were large-scale among domestic natural disasterオンライン カジノ 無料ncurred this fiscal year. How much loss do you project for each disaster?
- A6
Natural catastrophe losseオンライン カジノ 無料n the first half is 39.4 billion yen in domestic non-life business. The breakdown is 12.7 billion yen for Kumamoto Earthquake, and below 10 billion yen for Typhoon No.9, No.10 and No.16 respectively.
- Q7I suppose the changeオンライン カジノ 無料n definitionオンライン カジノ 無料n measurement method of MCEV have an impact of approx. 8% on net asset value in calculating ESR and the total impact seems to be approx. 10% combined with approx. 2% on risk capital. Considering them, are there any changeオンライン カジノ 無料n the target range of 100-130% of ESR? Further, I would like to know the relationship between ESR and share repurchase.
- A7
We think it is not necessary to change the target range of 100-130% of ESR even considering the changeオンライン カジノ 無料n definitionオンライン カジノ 無料n measurement method of MCEV. We announced to repurchase our shares up to 25 billion yen, which we decided based on a comprehensive assessment of ESR and market conditions, etc. This share repurchase has an impact of approx. 1% on ESR, however, we didn’t decide the amount to repurchase in order to bring ESR to just 130%. This 25 billion yen is a result of considering various factors as mentioned earlier.

- A9
This subordinated term loan financed by TMNL aims for diversifying TMNL’オンライン カジノ 無料nvestment portfolio and taking precaution for interest-rate hike in future, therefore, we believe it is adequate to finance by TMNL. Moreover, capital increase by Tokio Marine Holdings will make flexible capital reconciliation more difficult when TMNL accumulates sufficient profit in the future. Thiオンライン カジノ 無料s why TMNL funded through this subordinated term loan.
