Wealth Management booked its highest quarterly pretax income in nine years, since the first quarter of FY2015/16, driven by stronger revenues in each segment as the division deepened its segment-based approach. Both recurring revenue assets and recurring revenue reached a record high, underscoring continued growth in the asset management recurring business.

(billions of yen)		FY2024/25 Q1			QoQ			YoY
Net revenue			47.7				9%				80%
Income (loss) before income taxes			23.2				31%				6.4x

Investment Management first quarter net revenue was 47.7 billion yen, increasing 9 percent quarter on quarter and up 80 percent from the same period last year. Income before income taxes was 23.2 billion yen, up 31 percent quarter on quarter and 6.4 times higher than the same quarter last year.

Net inflows lifted Investment Management assets under management to an all-time high of 92.5 trillion yen, and stable business revenue was at its highest level since April 2021 when the division was established.

Wholesale

(billions of yen)		FY2024/25 Q1			QoQ			YoY
Net revenue			244.8				-4%				28%
Income (loss) before income taxes			21.1				3%				10.1x

Wholesale booked net revenue of 244.8 billion yen, down 4 percent quarter on quarter but up 28 percent year on year. Income before income taxes was 21.1 billion yen, up 3 percent quarter on quarter and 10.1 times higher than the same quarter last year.

Global Markets had a robust performance in Spread Products and Equities as Wholesale continued to diversify revenues. This offset a decline in Investment Banking from the prior strong quarter due to a slowdown in deals executed and Japan seasonal factors. As a result, divisional pretax income increased slightly quarter on quarter.
