I. Operating and financial review

1. Consolidated operating results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 (fiscal 2013)

 

  (1) Operating results

Our basic policy for fiscal 2013, the last year of the medium-term management plan for the three fiscal years from 2011 to 2013, were as follows: “Proactively contribute to the revitalization of Japanese economy, and as a result achieve the growth of SMFG” and “Create new business models and challenge for ‘innovation’ in order to make the next leap forward.” We continued to proactively support the revitalization of Japanese economy through financing, and proceeded with establishment of new business models to accommodate changes in the financial needs of our clients and business environment in order to achieve medium- to long-term growth.

In fiscal 2013, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (“SMBC”) increased gains on reversal of reserve for possible losses mainly due to individualized efforts to assist certain borrowers to improve their business and financial conditions. In addition, SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. increased equity commissions due to improved market conditions. As a result, ordinary income of SMFG increased ¥315.5 billion year-on-year to ¥4,641.9 billion.

Ordinary expenses decreased ¥43.1 billion year-on-year to ¥3,209.5 billion. While SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. made expenditures aimed at enhancing top-line growth, SMBC decreased losses on devaluation of stocks and write-off of loans.

As a result, ordinary profit of SMFG increased ¥358.6 billion year-on-year to ¥1,432.3 billion and net income increased ¥41.3 billion year-on-year to ¥835.4 billion.

 

  (2) Earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 (fiscal 2014)

In fiscal 2014, we aim to achieve our management goals* under a new medium-term management plan for the three years from fiscal 2014 to 2016, such as developing and evolving business models for main domestic and international businesses, and building a platform for realizing Asia-centric operations.

As for earnings forecast on a consolidated basis, ordinary income and net income are expected to amount to ¥1,110 billion and ¥680 billion, respectively.

* Our management goals under a new medium-term management plan are described in section “3. Medium- to long-term management strategy” of chapter “III. Management policy.”

3. Dividend policy and dividends for fiscal 2013 and 2014

SMFG had a basic policy of steadily increasing returns to shareholders through the sustainable growth of its enterprise value, while enhancing its capital to maintain financial soundness in light of the public nature of its business as a bank holding company, and aimed to realize a payout ratio of over 20% on a consolidated net income basis.

In line with this policy, SMFG has decided to pay the following dividends on common stock in view of the fiscal 2013 operating results.

 

    Common stock:

     

    Year-end dividends

   ¥  65 per share   

    Annual (including interim dividend)

   ¥120    (the same as fiscal 2012, while ordinary dividend increased ¥10 per share year-on-year)

SMFG intends to pay the following dividends for fiscal 2014 based on the fiscal 2014 earnings forecast, level of dividend payout ratio and policy of maintaining stable dividend payment.

 

    Common stock

   ¥  120 per share    (the same as fiscal 2013)

    [interim dividends]

     [¥60]   

SMFG aims to increase the dividend per share in a stable manner by implementing measures for the sustainable growth of shareholder value. To this end, we aim to achieve higher profitability and growth through growth investments with the focus on efficiency of our capital, while enhancing retained earnings to maintain financial soundness.

Specifically, we aim to achieve the following three points during the next decade.

 

    We will become a truly Asia-centric institution.
    We will develop the best-in-class earnings base in Japan.
    We will realize true globalization and continue to evolve our business model.

We also set the following four management goals of the three-year medium-term management plan as the first step toward realizing our vision.

 

    Develop and evolve client-centric business models for main domestic and international businesses
    Build a platform for realizing Asia-centric operations and capture growth opportunities
    Realize sustainable growth of top-line profit while maintaining soundness and profitability
    Upgrade corporate infrastructure to support next stage of growth

4.   Issues to be addressed

We will implement the following initiatives to achieve the management goals of our medium-term management plan.

Firstly, we will develop and evolve client-centric business models for main domestic and international businesses. We will create new business models that are even-more client-centric and implement strategies with speed in order to create a stronger franchise both domestically and internationally and enhance our capability to address our clients’ needs that are becoming more diverse and sophisticated.

For our large corporate clients, whose activities are becoming more global and cross-border, we are creating a unique business model to meet their needs, thereby enhancing our business base. Specifically, we are strengthening the collaboration between SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. and accelerating the integration of the business activities of domestic and international offices for a more seamless operation. Further, we aim to offer higher quality services to a wider range of clients by leveraging our extensive knowledge of domestic and overseas industries.

For medium and small-sized corporate clients, we aim to fully meet the financial needs of each individual company. Further, under the newly launched marketing structure, we will comprehensively address the needs of business owners, both as a corporate manager and as an individual, through one-stop-services. At the same time, we will proactively contribute to the revitalization of the Japanese economy by nurturing and supporting growth industries and companies.

For individual clients, whose needs are changing due to the accelerated shift from savings to investment and changing lifestyles, we aim to meet their needs through a group-wide effort. Specifically, we will expand the bank-securities integration model between SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities Inc., leveraging their respective strengths of a broad client base and a high advisory capability. Further, we will strengthen our unique private banking business model combining the capabilities of our group companies. In the consumer finance and credit card businesses, we aim to achieve the top share in the domestic market by managing the business on a group basis.

For globally operating non-Japanese corporate clients, we will enhance our capability to address their needs by expanding our global network, while enhancing our product line-up and promoting cross-selling. Further, we will create a new business model to meet the needs of institutional investors by establishing a group-wide framework, centered on SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities Inc., and enhancing our ability to originate and distribute financial products.

To meet such needs of our clients, we will utilize information and communication technology (ICT) and building on our transaction banking business; both are necessary underpinnings for creating new businesses. We will offer new leading-edge services through various measures, including alliances with leading ICT players.

Secondly, we will build a platform for realizing Asia-centric operations and capture growth opportunities. We will steadily create a business platform in Asia, with the enhancement of our Asia business as the principal strategy for the whole group, and prioritize the allocation of resources, including human resources and infrastructure, to Asia. Specifically, we will increase our group’s presence in Asia through the development and expansion of our existing businesses and the acceleration of our “multi-franchise strategy.” The aim of our multi-franchise strategy is to firmly establish ourselves as a full-line commercial bank in countries with high growth potential.

Thirdly, we aim to realize sustainable growth of top-line profit while maintaining soundness and profitability. Underpinned by the stable financial base built during the previous years, we will focus more on growth in the coming years. We will aim for the sustainable growth of our consolidated gross profit by developing and evolving our business models and allocating resources in growth fields.

Fourthly, we will upgrade corporate infrastructure to support next stage of growth. Our business is expanding globally, and we will strengthen our management platform to support our business growth. Specifically, we will promote diversity as we believe diversity is a source of competitiveness. We are also upgrading our risk management system. Regarding compliance, we will further upgrade our system for complying with domestic and international laws and regulations.

Through these initiatives, we aim to achieve steady results, and further increase the value for our clients and shareholders, financial markets, and society.

  (4)

Accounting policies

  (a)

Standards for recognition and measurement of trading assets/liabilities and trading profits/losses

Transactions for trading purposes (seeking gains arising from short-term changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates, or market prices of securities and other market related indices or from variation among markets) are included in “Trading assets” or “Trading liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets on a trade date basis. Profits and losses on trading-purpose transactions are recognized on a trade date basis, and recorded as “Trading income” and “Trading losses” on the consolidated statements of income.

Securities and monetary claims purchased for trading purposes are stated at the fiscal year-end market value, and financial derivatives such as swaps, futures and options are stated at amounts that would be settled if the transactions were terminated at the consolidated balance sheet date.

“Trading income” and “Trading losses” include interest received or paid during the fiscal year. The year-on-year valuation differences of securities and monetary claims are also recorded in the above-mentioned accounts. As for the derivatives, assuming that the settlement will be made in cash, the year-on-year valuation differences are also recorded in the above-mentioned accounts.

 

  (b)

Standards for recognition and measurement of securities

  (i)

Debt securities that consolidated subsidiaries have the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and are carried at amortized cost (straight-line method) using the moving-average method. Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates that are not accounted for by the equity method are carried at cost using the moving-average method. Securities other than trading purpose securities, held-to-maturity securities and investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates are classified as “other securities” (available-for-sale securities). Stocks in other securities are carried at their average market prices during the final month of the fiscal year, and bonds and others are carried at their fiscal year-end market prices (cost of securities sold is calculated using primarily the moving-average method). Other securities which are extremely difficult to determine fair value are carried at cost using the moving-average method. Net unrealized gains (losses) on other securities, net of income taxes, are included in “Net assets,” after deducting the amount that is reflected in the fiscal year’s earnings by applying fair value hedge accounting.

  (ii)

Securities included in money held in trust are carried in the same method as in (a) and (b) (i) above.

 

  (c)

Standards for recognition and measurement of derivative transactions

Derivative transactions, excluding those classified as trading derivatives, are carried at fair value.

 

  (d)

Depreciation

  (i)

Tangible fixed assets (excluding assets for rent and lease assets)

Buildings owned by SMFG and SMBC are depreciated using the straight-line method. Others are depreciated using the declining-balance method. The estimated useful lives of major items are as follows:

Buildings: 7 to 50 years

Others:      2 to 20 years

Other consolidated subsidiaries depreciate tangible fixed assets primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc.

 

 

  (ii) Intangible fixed assets

Intangible fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method. Capitalized software for internal use owned by SMFG and its consolidated domestic subsidiaries is depreciated over its estimated useful life (basically 5 years).

  (iii)

Assets for rent

Assets for rent are depreciated using the straight-line method, assuming that lease terms are, in principle their depreciation period and the salvage is estimated disposal value when the lease period expires.

  (iv)

Lease assets

Lease assets with respect to non-transfer ownership finance leases, which are recorded in “Tangible fixed assets,” are depreciated using the straight-line method, assuming that lease terms are their expected lifetime and salvage values are zero.

 

  (e)

Reserve for possible loan losses

The reserve for possible loan losses of major consolidated subsidiaries is provided as detailed below in accordance with the internal standards for write-offs and provisions.

For claims on borrowers that have entered into bankruptcy, special liquidation proceedings or similar legal proceedings (“bankrupt borrowers”) or borrowers that are not legally or formally insolvent but are regarded as substantially in the same situation (“effectively bankrupt borrowers”), a reserve is provided based on the amount of claims, after the write-off stated below, net of the expected amount of recoveries from collateral and guarantees. For claims on borrowers that are not currently bankrupt but are perceived to have a high risk of falling into bankruptcy (“potentially bankrupt borrowers”), a reserve is provided in the amount deemed necessary based on an overall solvency assessment of the claims, net of the expected amount of recoveries from collateral and guarantees.

Discounted Cash Flows (“DCF”) method is used for claims on borrowers whose cash flows from collection of principals and interest can be rationally estimated and SMBC applies it to claims on large potentially bankrupt borrowers and claims on large borrowers requiring close monitoring that have been classified as “Past due loans (3 months or more)” or “Restructured loans,” whose total loans from SMBC exceed a certain amount. SMBC establishes a reserve for possible loan losses using the DCF method for such claims in the amount of the difference between the present value of principal and interest (calculated using the rationally estimated cash flows discounted at the initial contractual interest rate) and the book value.

For other claims, a reserve is provided based on the historical loan-loss ratio. For claims originated in specific overseas countries, an additional reserve is provided in the amount deemed necessary based on the assessment of political and economic conditions.

Branches and credit supervision departments assess all claims in accordance with the internal rules for self-assessment of assets, and the Credit Review Department, independent from these operating sections, audits their assessment.

The reserve for possible loan losses of SMFG and other consolidated subsidiaries for general claims is provided in the amount deemed necessary based on the historical loan-loss ratios, and for doubtful claims in the amount deemed uncollectible based on assessment of each claim.

For collateralized or guaranteed claims on bankrupt borrowers and effectively bankrupt borrowers, the amount exceeding the estimated value of collateral and guarantees is deemed to be uncollectible and written off against the total outstanding amount of the claims. The amount of write-off was ¥511,043 million.

 

  (f)

Reserve for employee bonuses

The reserve for employee bonuses is provided for payment of bonuses to employees, in the amount of estimated bonuses, which are attributable to the fiscal year.

 

  (g)

Reserve for executive bonuses

The reserve for executive bonuses is provided for payment of bonuses to executives, in the amount of estimated bonuses, which are attributable to the fiscal year.

 

  (h)

Reserve for executive retirement benefits

The reserve for executive retirement benefits is provided for payment of retirement benefits to directors, corporate auditors and other executive officers, in the amount deemed accrued at the fiscal year-end based on our internal regulations.

 

  (i)

Reserve for point service program

The reserve for point service program is provided for the potential future redemption of points awarded to customers under the “SMBC Point Pack,” credit card points programs, and other customer points award programs. The amount is calculated by converting the outstanding points into a monetary amount, and rationally estimating and recognizing the amount that will be redeemed in the future.

 

  (j)

Reserve for reimbursement of deposits

The reserve for reimbursement of deposits which were derecognized as liabilities under certain conditions is provided for the possible losses on the future claims of withdrawal based on the historical reimbursements.

 

  (k)

Reserve for losses on interest repayment

The reserve for losses on interest repayment is provided for the possible losses on future claims of repayment of interest based on historical interest repayment experience.

 

  (l)

Reserve under the special laws

The reserve under the special laws is a reserve for contingent liabilities and provided for compensation for losses from securities related transactions or derivative transactions, pursuant to Article 46-5 of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.

  (m)

Employee retirement benefits

In calculating the projected benefit obligation, the straight-line basis is used to attribute the expected benefit attributable to the respective fiscal year.

Unrecognized prior service cost is amortized on a straight-line basis, primarily over 9 years within the employees’ average remaining service period at incurrence.

Unrecognized net actuarial gain (loss) is amortized on a straight-line basis, primarily over 9 years within the employees’ average remaining service period, commencing from the next fiscal year of incurrence.

 

  (n)

Translation of foreign currency assets and liabilities

Assets and liabilities of SMFG and SMBC denominated in foreign currencies and accounts of SMBC overseas branches are translated into Japanese yen mainly at the exchange rate prevailing at the consolidated balance sheet date, with the exception of stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates translated at rates prevailing at the time of acquisition.

Other consolidated subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Japanese yen at the exchange rate prevailing at their respective balance sheet dates.

 

  (o)

Lease transactions

  (i)

Recognition of income on finance leases

Interest income is allocated to each period.

  (ii)

Recognition of income on operating leases

Primarily, lease-related income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the full term of the lease, based on the contractual amount of lease fees per month.

  (iii)

Recognition of income and expenses on installment sales

Primarily, installment-sales-related income and installment-sales-related expenses are recognized on a due-date basis over the full period of the installment sales.

 

  (p)

Hedge accounting

  (i)

Hedging against interest rate changes

As for the hedge accounting method applied to hedging transactions for interest rate risk arising from financial assets and liabilities, SMBC applies deferred hedge accounting.

SMBC applies deferred hedge accounting stipulated in “Treatment for Accounting and Auditing of Application of Accounting Standard for Financial Instruments in Banking Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 24) to portfolio hedges on groups of large-volume, small-value monetary claims and debts.

As for the portfolio hedges to offset market fluctuation, SMBC assesses the effectiveness of such hedges by classifying the hedged items (such as deposits and loans) and the hedging instruments (such as interest rate swaps) by their maturity. As for the portfolio hedges to fix cash flows, SMBC assesses the effectiveness of such hedges by verifying the correlation between the hedged items and the hedging instruments.

As for the individual hedges, SMBC also assesses the effectiveness of such individual hedges.

As a result of the application of JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 24, SMBC discontinued the application of hedge accounting or applied fair value hedge accounting to a portion of the hedging instruments using “macro hedge,” which had been applied in order to manage interest rate risk arising from large-volume transactions in loans, deposits and other interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as a whole using derivatives pursuant to “Temporary Treatment for Accounting and Auditing of Application of Accounting Standard for Financial Instruments in Banking Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 15). The deferred hedge losses and gains related to such a portion of hedging instruments are charged to “Interest income” or “Interest expenses” over a 12-year period (maximum) according to their maturity from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004. At the fiscal year-end, gross amounts of deferred hedge losses and gains on “macro hedge” (before deducting tax effect) were ¥40 million and ¥14 million, respectively.

  (ii)

Hedging against currency fluctuations

SMBC applies deferred hedge accounting stipulated in “Treatment of Accounting and Auditing Concerning Accounting for Foreign Currency Transactions in Banking Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 25) to currency swap and foreign exchange swap transactions executed for the purpose of lending or borrowing funds in different currencies.

Pursuant to JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 25, SMBC assesses the effectiveness of currency swap and foreign exchange swap transactions executed for the purpose of offsetting the risk of changes in currency exchange rates by verifying that there are foreign-currency monetary claims and debts corresponding to the foreign-currency positions.

In order to hedge risk arising from volatility of exchange rates for stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates and other securities (excluding bonds) denominated in foreign currencies, SMBC applies deferred hedge accounting or fair value hedge accounting, on the conditions that the hedged securities are designated in advance and that sufficient on-balance (actual) or off-balance (forward) liability exposure exists to cover the cost of the hedged securities denominated in the same foreign currencies.

  (iii)

Hedging against share price fluctuations

SMBC applies fair value hedge accounting to individual hedges offsetting the price fluctuation of the shares that are classified under other securities, and that are held for the purpose of strategic investment, and accordingly evaluates the effectiveness of such individual hedges.

  (iv)

Transactions between consolidated subsidiaries

As for derivative transactions between consolidated subsidiaries or internal transactions between trading accounts and other accounts (or among internal sections), SMBC manages the interest rate swaps and currency swaps that are designated as hedging instruments in accordance with the strict criteria for external transactions stipulated in JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 24 and No. 25. Therefore, SMBC accounts for the gains or losses that arise from interest rate swaps and currency swaps in its earnings or defers them, rather than eliminating them.

Certain other consolidated subsidiaries apply the deferred hedge accounting or fair value hedge accounting or the special treatment for interest rate swaps.

  (q) Amortization of goodwill

Goodwill is amortized using the straight-line method over a period in which its benefit is expected to be realized, not to exceed 20 years. Immaterial goodwill is charged or credited to income directly when incurred.

 

  (r)

Scope of “Cash and cash equivalents” on consolidated statements of cash flows

For the purposes of presenting the consolidated statements of cash flows, “Cash and cash equivalents” are cash on hand, non-interest earning deposits with banks and deposits with the Bank of Japan.

 

  (s)

Consumption taxes

National and local consumption taxes of SMFG and its consolidated domestic subsidiaries are accounted for using the tax-excluded method.

(Changes in accounting policies)

The revision of the Accounting Standard for Consolidated Financial Statements and related rules

(Changes in accounting polices due to application of new or revised accounting standards)

SMFG has adopted the Accounting Standard for Consolidated Financial Statements (ASBJ Statement No. 22, revised on March 25, 2011, the “Accounting Standard”) applicable from fiscal years commencing on or after April 1, 2013. Accordingly, 13 companies including Chelsea Capital Corporation were newly included in the scope of consolidation since the beginning of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.

In accordance with the transitional treatment stipulated in Paragraph 44-4 (3) of the Accounting Standard, assets, liabilities and minority interests of those newly consolidated subsidiaries are valued by the appropriate book values reported in the consolidated financial statements at the beginning of the period.

The Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits and related guidance

(Changes in accounting polices due to application of new or revised accounting standards)

Accordingly, the difference between the projected benefit obligation and plan assets is reported as Net defined benefit asset or Net defined benefit liability from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.

In accordance with the transitional treatment stipulated in Paragraph 37 of the Accounting Standard, unrecognized net actuarial gain (loss) and unrecognized prior service cost, after adjusting tax effect, are reported as Remeasurements of defined benefit plans in Accumulated other comprehensive income from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.

As a result, ¥119,932 million and ¥45,385 million were recorded as Net defined benefit asset and Net defined benefit liability, respectively. Accumulated other comprehensive income decreased by ¥73,579 million.

The effect of this change on net assets per share is disclosed in (Per share data).

Commitment line contracts on overdrafts and loans are agreements to lend to customers, up to a prescribed amount, as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contracts. The amount of unused commitments was ¥49,167,754 million and the amount of unused commitments whose original contract terms are within one year or unconditionally cancelable at any time was ¥38,010,372 million. Since many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amount of unused commitments does not necessarily represent actual future cash flow requirements. Many of these commitments include clauses under which SMBC and other consolidated subsidiaries can reject an application from customers or reduce the contract amounts in the event that economic conditions change, SMBC and other consolidated subsidiaries need to secure claims, or other events occur. In addition, SMBC and other consolidated subsidiaries may request the customers to pledge collateral such as premises and securities at the time of the contracts, and take necessary measures such as monitoring customers’ financial positions, revising contracts when such need arises and securing claims after the contracts are made.

 

  (10)

SMBC and another consolidated subsidiary revaluated their own land for business activities in accordance with “Act on Revaluation of Land” (the “Act”) (Act No. 34, effective March 31, 1998) and “Act for Partial Revision of Act on Revaluation of Land” (Act No. 19, effective March 31, 2001). The income taxes corresponding to the net unrealized gains are reported in “Liabilities” as “Deferred tax liabilities for land revaluation,” and the net unrealized gains, net of deferred taxes, are reported as “Land revaluation excess” in “Net assets.”

A certain affiliate also revaluated its own land for business activities in accordance with the Law. The net unrealized gains, net of deferred taxes, are reported as “Land revaluation excess” in “Net assets.”

At SMBC, a branch, which continuously manages and determines its income and expenses, is the smallest unit of asset group for recognition and measurement of impairment loss of fixed assets. Assets such as corporate headquarters facilities, training facilities, data and system centers, and health and recreational facilities which do not produce cash flows that can be attributed to individual assets are treated as corporate assets. As for idle assets, impairment loss is measured individually. At SMFG and other consolidated subsidiaries, a branch or other group is the smallest asset grouping unit as well.

SMBC and other consolidated subsidiaries reduced the carrying amounts of long-lived assets of which investments are not expected to be fully recovered to their recoverable amounts, and recognized the losses as “losses on impairment of fixed assets,” which is included in “Extraordinary losses.” SMBC reduced the carrying amounts of idle assets, and other consolidated subsidiaries reduced the carrying amounts of their branches and idle assets.

The recoverable amount is calculated using net realizable value which is basically determined by subtracting the expected disposal cost from the appraisal value based on the Real Estate Appraisal Standard.

  (f) Change of classification of securities

There are no corresponding transactions.

 

  (g) Write-down of securities

Bonds classified as held-to-maturity and other securities (excluding securities whose fair value are extremely difficult to determine) are considered as impaired if the fair value of the securities declines materially below the acquisition cost and such decline is not considered to be recoverable. The securities are recognized at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet and the amount of write-down is accounted for as valuation loss for the fiscal year. Valuation loss for the fiscal year was ¥7,250 million. The rule for determining “material decline” is as follows and is based on the classification of issuers under the rules of self-assessment of assets.

 

Bankrupt/ Effectively bankrupt/Potentially bankrupt issuers

              : Fair value is lower than acquisition cost.

Issuers requiring caution

  : Fair value is 30% or more lower than acquisition cost.

Normal issuers

  : Fair value is 50% or more lower than acquisition cost.

Bankrupt issuers: Issuers that are legally bankrupt or formally declared bankrupt.

Effectively bankrupt issuers: Issuers that are not legally bankrupt but regarded as substantially bankrupt.

Potentially bankrupt issuers: Issuers that are not bankrupt now, but are perceived to have a high risk of falling into bankruptcy.

Issuers requiring caution: Issuers that are identified for close monitoring.

Normal issuers: Issuers other than the above four categories of issuers.

(Employee retirement benefits)

 

  (1) Outline of employee retirement benefits

Consolidated subsidiaries of SMFG have funded and unfunded contributory defined benefit pension plans and defined-contribution pension plans for benefit payments to their employees.

Funded contributory defined benefit pension plans mainly consist of contributory funded defined benefit pension plans and lump-sum severance plans which set up employee retirement benefit trusts.

Unfunded contributory defined benefit pension plans are lump-sum severance plans which do not use such trust scheme.

Some consolidated subsidiaries adopt the simplified method in calculating the projected benefit obligation. Additional benefits may also be granted when employees retire.

SMFG has adopted the Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits (ASBJ Statement No. 26, issued on May 17, 2012, the “Accounting Standard”) and the Guidance on Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits (ASBJ Guidance No. 25, the “Guidance”) applicable from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 (excluding the provisions set out in the main text of Paragraph 35 and Paragraph 67 of the Accounting Standard and the Guidance, respectively). Accordingly, the difference between the projected benefit obligation and plan assets is reported as either Net defined benefit asset or Net defined benefit liability from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.

In accordance with the transitional treatment stipulated in Paragraph 37 of the Accounting Standard, unrecognized net actuarial gain (loss) and unrecognized prior service cost, after adjusting tax effect, are reported as Remeasurements of defined benefit plans in Accumulated other comprehensive income from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.

As a result, net assets per share as of March 31, 2014 decreased by ¥ 53.81.
