(4) Changes in Accounting Policies

Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Asset: Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) No. 2023-08Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Asset: Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets” which requires all in-scope crypto assets be subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting period through earnings. The ASU requires presentation of in-scope crypto assets separately from other intangible assets in the balance sheet and any changes from the remeasurement of in-scope crypto assets separately from changes in the carrying amounts of other intangible assets in the income statement. The ASU also introduces new disclosure requirements for in-scope crypto assets applicable to all entities. Nomura has applied this new accounting policy based on a modified retrospective approach from April 1, 2025. These accounting changes have not had a material impact on Nomura’s consolidated financial statements.

(5) Segment Information – Operating Segment

Nomura’s Chief Operating Decision Maker is the Executive Management Board (the “EMB”) which is the management function primarily responsible for assessing performance of and allocating resources to the business segments. The EMB reviews business segment results including Net revenue, Non-interest expenses, and Income before income taxes on a regular basis. The EMB uses these measures along with certain segment-specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and budgets to evaluate segment performance and to make key operating decisions, including resource and capital allocations. Business segments’ information on total assets is not disclosed as EMB does not consider such information for its operating decisions and therefore, it is not reported.

Auditor’s Conclusion

We have reviewed the accompanying quarterly consolidated financial statements of Nomura Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2025, and notes to the quarterly consolidated financial statements.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying quarterly consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with Article 5, Paragraph 4 of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc’s and the Nagoya Stock Exchange, Inc’s Standards for the Preparation of Quarterly Financial Statements (the Standards), applying the provisions for reduced disclosures as set forth in Article 5, Paragraph 5 of the Standards, as disclosed in the quarterly consolidated financial statements.

Basis for Auditor’s Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with review standards for interim financial statements generally accepted in Japan. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our review of the quarterly consolidated financial statements in Japan, including those applicable to audits of financial statements of public interest entities, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the evidence we have obtained provides a basis for our conclusion.

Responsibilities of Management and the Audit Committee for the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of the quarterly consolidated financial statements in accordance with Article 5, Paragraph 4 of the Standards, applying the provisions for reduced disclosures as set forth in Article 5, Paragraph 5 of the Standards and for the internal controls as management determines are necessary to enable the preparation of quarterly consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the quarterly consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, including the disclosures related to matters of going concern, as required by Article 5, Paragraph 4 of the Standards, applying the provisions for reduced disclosures as set forth in Article 5, Paragraph 5 of the Standards.

The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements

Our responsibility is to independently express a conclusion on the quarterly consolidated financial statements in the interim review report based on our review. As part of a review in accordance with review standards for interim financial statements generally accepted in Japan, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the review. We also:

 

   

Make inquiries, primarily of management and persons responsible for financial and accounting matters and apply analytical and other interim review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan.

Conclude based on the evidence obtained whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the quarterly consolidated financial statements are not prepared in accordance with Article 5, Paragraph 4 of the Standards, applying the provisions for reduced disclosures as set forth in Article 5, Paragraph 5 of the Standards, should we determine that a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Additionally, if we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s interim review report to the related disclosures in the quarterly consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our conclusion. Our conclusions are based on the evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s interim review report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

 

   

Evaluate whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the overall presentation and disclosure of the quarterly consolidated financial statements are not prepared in accordance with Article 5, Paragraph 4 of the Standards, applying the provisions for reduced disclosures as set forth in Article 5, Paragraph 5 of the Standards.

 

   

Obtain evidence regarding the financial information of the Group as a basis for expressing a conclusion on the quarterly consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the documentation of the interim review. We remain solely responsible for our conclusion.

We communicate with the Audit Committee regarding the planned scope and timing of the review and significant review findings.

We also provide the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with the ethical requirements regarding independence that are relevant to our review of the quarterly consolidated financial statements in Japan, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied to reduce threats to an acceptable level.

Interest Required to Be Disclosed by the Certified Public Accountants Act of Japan

Our firm and its designated engagement partners do not have any interest in the Group which is required to be disclosed pursuant to the provisions of the Certified Public Accountants Act of Japan.
