Notice regarding the Result of the Litigation against Subsidiaries
Tokyo, June 25, 2018—As notified in the news release entitled “Notice regarding Appeal in Litigation against Subsidiaries” dated March 13, 2018, the U.S. subsidiaries of Nomura Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a petition for a writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court of the United States. The petition was denied on June 25, 2018 (EDT). Details are as follows.
| 1. | Court and date of denial |
The Supreme Court of the United States
June 25, 2018 (EDT)
| 2. | Background to the denial |
In the proceedings commenced in September 2011 by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, as conservator for the government-sponsored enterprises Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (the “GSEs”), against Nomura Asset Acceptance Corporation (“NAAC”), Nomura Home Equity Loan Inc. (“NHEL”), Nomura Credit & Capital, Inc., Nomura Securities International, Inc., Nomura Holding America Inc., and several individuals, along with RBS Securities Inc. as an underwriter (collectively, the “Defendants”), the District Court issued a judgment in May 2015. The District Court judgment found that the offering materials for residential mortgage-backed securities certificates issued by NAAC and NHEL, and purchased by the GSEs, contained material misstatements, and ordered the Defendants to pay $806 million to the GSEs upon the GSEs’ delivery of the certificates at issue to the Defendants.
In June 2015, the Defendants appealed, but in September 2017 the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit rejected the appeal. In March 2018, the Defendants filed a petition for a writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court of the United States.
On June 25, 2018 (EDT), the Defendants’ petition for a writ of certiorari was denied, and the initial judgment of the District Court became final and non-appealable.
| 3. | The denial’s impact on the Company’s results |
As the Company has already recorded the amount of reasonably possible loss as a loss contingency, the impact of this denial to the Company’s consolidated results is expected to be insignificant.
