    (4) Changes in Accounting Policies

    Fair value measurement of equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions

    The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) 2022-03 “Fair Value Measurement: Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions” in June 2022 which clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is an entity-specific characteristic and therefore should not be considered in the fair value measurement of the equity security. The ASU also requires specific disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. Nomura has applied this new accounting policy prospectively from April 1, 2024.

    Voluntary change in accounting policy

    Effective from April 1, 2024, Nomura has changed its accounting policy in respect of how accounting guidance provided by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 940 “Financial Services — Brokers and Dealers” (“ASC 940”) is applied to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. For the year ended March 31, 2024 and in prior financial years, Nomura applied ASC 940 on a consolidated basis to all entities included within the consolidated financial statements of Nomura. Effective from April 1, 2024, the Company and consolidated subsidiaries that are not registered as a broker-dealer (“non-BD entities”) no longer apply ASC 940.

    This accounting policy change is primarily due to a planned expansion of Nomura’s banking and investment management business and is therefore intended to allow certain non-BD entities to prospectively classify purchases of new non-trading debt securities as either held to maturity (“HTM”) or available for sale (“AFS”) as defined in ASC 320 “Investments — Debt Securities”. Non-trading debt securities classified as HTM are securities that a non-BD entity has both the ability and the intent to hold until maturity and are carried at amortized cost, while non-trading debt securities classified as AFS are carried at fair value with changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes within Other comprehensive income (loss) and in the consolidated balance sheets, net of applicable income taxes within Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of NHI shareholders’ equity.

    As retrospective application of this accounting policy change is impracticable since it would require use of hindsight regarding historical accounting matters such as the initial classification of non-trading debt securities, Nomura has applied this new accounting policy prospectively from April 1, 2024.

    As part of this accounting policy change, existing loans for trading purposes and non-trading debt securities held by non-BD entities have been elected for the fair value option on April 1, 2024 and therefore continue to be measured at fair value through earnings. A similar election has been made for subsequent originations or purchases of loans held for trading purposes and a part of non-trading debt securities through to December 31, 2024. Such loans continue to be reported in Trading assets in the consolidated balance sheets with changes in fair value reported in Revenue – Net gain on trading in the consolidated statements of income. Similarly, non-trading debt securities held by non-BD entities elected for the fair value option continue to be reported in Non-trading debt securities in the consolidated balance sheets which changed in fair value reported in Revenue – Other in the consolidated statements of income.

    Following the accounting policy change, fair value changes of non-trading debt securities acquired on or after April 1, 2024 and classified as HTM or AFS by non-BD entities are not recognized through earnings, unless an impairment loss is recognized.

    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 nine-month period ended December 31, 2024, 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, 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.
