(1) Explanation on Operating Results

During the consolidated cumulative first quarter (from April 1, 2022 to June 30, 2022), JPX Group recorded operating revenue of ¥33,576 million (increased 3.3% from the same period of the previous fiscal year (i.e., year on year)), and operating expenses were ¥16,397 million (increased 13.1% year on year). As a result, JPX Group recorded operating income of ¥17,777 million (decreased 3.7% year on year) and income before income tax of ¥17,790 million (decreased 3.7% year on year).

(Operating revenue)

1) Trading services revenue

Trading services revenue is comprised of "transaction fees" based on the value of cash equities traded or volume of financial and commodity derivatives traded, "basic fees" based on the types of the trading participant's trading qualification, "access fees" based on the number of orders, "trading system facilities usage fees" based on the types of trading system facilities used, and other similar fees.

During the consolidated cumulative first quarter, trading services revenue increased 8.8% year on year to ¥13,479 million due mainly to an increase in revenue from transaction fees resulting from year-on-year increases in trading value of cash equities and trading volume of financial derivatives.
