During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, the Japanese economy kept showing a gradual recovery partly due to various government policies as the employment and income environment continued to improve.
In the domestic business, we promoted measures to accurately grasp funding demands of customers, and new contracts and additional use of existing customers remained strong. Combined with the impact of the depreciation the yen, the receivables outstanding increased by 7.2% yoy to 2,714.1 billion yen on a consolidated basis.

In the loan and credit card business, amid strong demand for funds, we strove to expand its business while holding down acquisition unit costs to attract new customers.
GeNiE Inc., a subsidiary company of ACOM CO. Ltd, launched the system in June 2024.Since the start of the business alliance with Kyash Inc. in October, we have expanded steadily, forming alliances with eight companies by the end of March 2025.

Considering the current financial situation and full-year results excluding the expense for interest repayment, the year-end dividend is seven yen which was in line with the initial forecast, and for a total annual dividend of 14 yen.
