Certain reclassifications of previously reported amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation. Dividends per share Six months ended September 30, 2023 ¥ 8.00 Six months ended September 30, 2024 ¥ 23.00 Reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were not significant.Derivatives which contain multiple types of risk are classified based on the primary risk type of the instrument.Includes gains and losses reported primarily within Net gain on trading, Gain on private equity and debt investments, and also within Gain on investments in equity securities, Revenue—Other and Non-interest expenses—Other, Interest and dividends and Interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.Amounts reported in Purchases / issues include increases in trading liabilities while Sales / redemptions include decreases in trading liabilities.Amounts of gains and losses on these transfers which were recognized in the period when the Transfers into Level 3 occurred were not significant for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2024.Transfers into Level 3 indicate certain valuation inputs of a financial instrument become unobservable or significant. Transfers out of Level 3 indicate certain valuation inputs of a financial instrument become observable or insignificant. See “Quantitative and qualitative information regarding significant unobservable valuation inputs” above for the valuation inputs of each financial instruments.Transfers out of Level 3 include financial instruments that moved out of level 3 by application of measurement alternative. See Note 6 “Investments” for further information of financial instruments under the measurement alternative.The frequency with which Nomura is permitted to redeem investments.The contractual amount of any unfunded commitments Nomura is required to make to the entities in which the investment is held.The range in prior notice period for redemption.Valuation techniques and unobservable valuation inputs in respect of equity securities reported within Other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.Weighted average information for non-derivatives is calculated by weighting each valuation input by the fair value of the financial instrument.Nomura has not provided weighted average information for derivatives as unlike cash products the risk on such products is distinct from the balance sheet value and is subject to netting.Range information is provided in percentages, coefficients and multiples and represents the highest and lowest level significant unobservable valuation input used to value that type of financial instrument. A wide dispersion in the range does not necessarily reflect increased uncertainty or subjectivity in the valuation input and is typically just a consequence of the different characteristics of the financial instruments themselves. Represents the amount offset under counterparty netting of derivative assets and liabilities as well as cash collateral netting against net derivatives assets or liabilities.The above table only considers the impact of an increase in each significant unobservable valuation input on the fair value measurement of the financial instrument. However, a decrease in the significant unobservable valuation input would have the opposite effect on the fair value measurement of the financial instrument. For example, if an increase in a significant unobservable valuation input would result in a lower fair value measurement, a decrease in the significant unobservable valuation input would result in a higher fair value measurement.The impact of an increase in the significant unobservable valuation input on the fair value measurement for a derivative assumes Nomura is long risk to the input (such as being long volatility). Where Nomura is short such risk, the impact of an increase would have a converse effect on the fair value measurement of the derivative.Includes gains and losses reported within Net gain on trading, Gain on private equity and debt investments, Gain (loss) on investments in equity securities, Revenue—Other, Non-interest expenses—Other, Interest and dividends and Interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.Includes unrealized gains and losses of ¥(1) billion and ¥5 billion for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2024, recognized in Other comprehensive income (loss) for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period.Investments that are carried at fair value using NAV per share as a practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy.
