guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2026. Under Japanese GAAP, ordinary income is lowered by 35.2% from 122,000 million yen to 79,000 million yen, and net income attributable to owners of the parent is sharply reduced by 39.0% from 82,000 million yen to 50,000 million yen. Under IFRS, pre-tax profit is significantly decreased by 98.3% from 60,000 million yen to 1,000 million yen, and net income attributable to owners of the parent is substantially revised downwards from 41,000 million yen to \u25b3500 million yen.\n\n### Reasons for Revision and Future Outlook\nThe primary reason for the revision is an increase in securities sale losses due to additional bond sales based on ALM (Asset and Liability Management) conducted by Sony Life Insurance Co., Ltd. This results in profits expected to fall below the previous forecast. The revised net income under IFRS also reflects a decrease due to a review of the measurement assumptions for insurance liabilities. These figures are forecasts based on information currently available and actual results may differ.","jir_financial_highlights":"Ordinary Income: 79,000 million yen (Compared to previous forecast \u25b335.2%)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 50,000 million yen (Compared to previous forecast \u25b339.0%)\nNet Income per Share: 7 yen 09 sen (Declined from previous forecast of 11 yen 47 sen)\nPre-Tax Profit under IFRS: 1,000 million yen (Compared to previous forecast \u25b398.3%)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent under IFRS: \u25b3500 million yen (Significantly decreased compared to previous forecast)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#SonyFinancialGroup, #EarningsGuidanceRevision, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Ordinary Income: 79,000 million yen (previous forecast 122,000 million yen, 35.2% decrease)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 50,000 million yen (previous forecast 82,000 million yen, 39.0% decrease)\nPre-Tax Profit under IFRS: 1,000 million yen (previous forecast 60,000 million yen, 98.3% decrease)","jir_meta_title":"Sony Financial Group Revises FY March 2026 Earnings Guidance with 35.2% Decrease in Ordinary Income","jir_meta_description":"Sony Financial Group has revised its consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2026.
