Reasons for the revision
The Company revises its previous forecast for its consolidated revenues for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2020 because investment income at Protective Life Corporation increased. The Company also revises its previous forecast for its consolidated ordinary profit and net income attributable to shareholders of parent company for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 mainly because derivative transaction gains at The Dai-ichi Life Insurance Company, Limited (Dai-ichi Life) increased as a result of profits on hedging transactions.
The Company also revises its previous forecast for its group adjusted profit for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 from 240.0 billion yen to 274.0 billion yen due mainly to the increase in derivative transaction gains at Dai-ichi Life as mentioned above.
Shareholder dividend forecast
The Company's dividend forecast for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 (62 yen per share)
remains unchanged.
