Kiyoaki Suzuki's questions to ORIX (IX) leadership

Question · Q1 2025

Kiyoaki Suzuki from Nomura Securities Co., Ltd. questioned the change in language regarding the full-year capital gains forecast, from 'targeting' to 'expecting' it to surpass the prior year, asking if this signaled increased confidence. He also inquired how market volatility and yen appreciation might influence new investment decisions.

Answer

Kazuki Yamamoto, Operating Officer, clarified that the change in wording was merely a reflection of a solid Q1 performance and not a fundamental shift in outlook. Regarding new investments, he acknowledged that the recent yen appreciation could create a tailwind for overseas deals, potentially allowing ORIX to pursue more growth abroad after a period of focusing on the domestic market.
