Global Wholesale has made an effort to manage its business portfolio based on global customers’ order-flow. Net revenue decreased by 7% from ¥ 94,154 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 87,502 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, due primarily to a decrease in net gain on trading relating to bonds. Non-interest expenses decreased by 3% from ¥ 56,356 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 54,847 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. As a result, income before income taxes decreased by 14% from ¥ 37,798 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 32,655 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. In April 2004, the Global Wholesale segment was reorganized in order to enhance specialty services and strengthen our global structure. It now consists of three business lines: Global Markets, which is composed of Fixed Income and Equity, Investment Banking, and Merchant Banking.

 

Global Markets

 

Net revenue decreased by 13% from ¥ 82,642 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 71,799 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, due primarily to a decrease in net gain on trading relating to bonds. Non-interest expenses decreased by 1% from ¥ 41,563 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 41,175 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. As a result, income before income taxes decreased by 25% from ¥ 41,079 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 30,624 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.

 

Investment Banking

 

Net revenue increased by 0.3% from ¥ 12,908 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 12,945 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, partly due to a revitalization in equity capital markets. Non-interest expenses decreased by 12% from ¥ 12,086 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 10,668 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, due primarily to restructuring of business operations. As a result, income before income taxes increased by 177% from ¥ 822 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 2,277 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.

 

Merchant Banking

 

Net revenue increased from (¥ 1,396) million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 2,758 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, due to realized gains from private equity investments. Non-interest expenses increased by 11% from ¥ 2,707 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to ¥ 3,004 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004.

Nomura Announces Dividend Policy and Target Dividend Amounts

 

Nomura Holdings, Inc. (“The Company”) announces its dividend policy and target dividend amounts. The Company’s Board of Directors shall determine the payment and the amount of the dividends to be paid.

 

1. Dividend Policy

 

New Dividend Policy

 

When determining the amount of any cash dividend, the Company will first consider the maintenance of capital sufficient to capture business opportunities as they may develop. The Company will then decide the target dividend amounts, taking into account the firm’s dividend-on-equity ratio (DOE). Lastly, when the Company achieves a sufficient level of profit, it will decide the amount of the cash dividend taking into consideration the pay-out ratio. As for retained profits, the Company intends to invest in business areas where high profitability and growth may reasonably be expected, including development and expansion of infrastructure, to maximize value for shareholders.

 

Former Dividend Policy

 

The Company will determine the amount of any cash dividend, broadly considering such factors as the firm’s dividend-on-equity ratio (DOE), the firm’s level of profits and its maintenance of capital sufficient to capture business opportunities as they may develop. As for retained profits, the Company intends to invest in business areas where high profitability and growth may reasonably be expected, including development and expansion of infrastructure, to maximize value for shareholders.
