Nomura Holdings Inc
Nomura Holdings is the parent company of Nomura Securities, one of Japan’s best-known financial firms. It helps individuals, companies, governments, and institutions buy and sell stocks, bonds, and other financial products, and it advises companies on mergers, fund-raising, and other big transactions. It also manages assets for clients through investment products and portfolio services. The company makes money mainly through brokerage and trading activity, advisory and underwriting fees, and asset management fees. In plain terms, it earns when clients trade through its platforms, hire it to raise capital or complete deals, or pay it to manage money on their behalf. What makes Nomura’s business model distinct is its role as a full-service capital markets intermediary, especially in Japan and across Asian and global markets. It sits between savers, investors, and companies that need capital, which gives it a broad mix of transaction-based and fee-based revenue sources.

Record year: Nomura posted record full-year net revenue of JPY 2.1677 trillion, income before income taxes of JPY 539.8 billion, and net income of JPY 362.1 billion for a second straight record year.
Wealth strength: Wealth Management kept momentum with recurring revenue at an all-time high of JPY 56.8 billion and recurring revenue inflows of JPY 422.8 billion, marking the 16th straight quarter of inflows beating outflows.
Quarterly softness: Fourth-quarter profit fell because of lower affiliate gains, an impairment loss in Investment Management, and weaker Wholesale results tied to market volatility and reduced risk-taking in late March.
Capital returns: Nomura will pay an ordinary dividend of JPY 24 per share, bringing the full-year dividend to JPY 51 per share and a payout ratio of 41%.
Balance sheet: CET1 ended March at 12.9%, and management said business growth should not meaningfully pressure the ratio in the next quarter.
Outlook: Management said April trends were better than the fourth quarter, especially in Wholesale, and reiterated confidence in private credit and private asset growth while keeping risk controls tight.
