Mid- to Long-term Business Plan

Announcement of the formulation of Nomura Real Estate Group Mid- to Long-term Business Plan

Nomura Real Estate Holdings, Inc. hereby announced that Nomura Real Estate Group (the "Group") has formulated a new mid- to long-term business plan (hereinafter referred to as "the plan") for the period from FY23/3 through FY31/3.

Background and Purpose of this Plan

The Group formulated a mid- to long-term business plan (hereinafter referred to as "the previous plan" for the period from FY20/3 through FY28/3) in April 2019 and it was promoted with the target of achieving 85.0 billion yen in business profit*, ROA of around 4 to 5%, ROE of around 8 to 9%, and a total return ratio of around 40 to 50% for FY22/3.

As a result, the Group achieved our goals of 92.7 billion yen in business profit, ROA of 4.7%, ROE of 9.2%, and total return ratio of 44.3% for FY22/3.

Meanwhile, the business environment surrounding the Group has changed day by day with increasing complexity and uncertainty, such as the diversification of people’s lifestyles and values, the accelerated advancement of digitalization in day-to-day lifestyles, and heightened geopolitical risks.

In order to achieve sustained high profit growth in future in such a business environment, the Group believes it is necessary to clarify its vision of "what kind of value do we want to provide to society and customers in the future as a corporate group" and to evolve and transform value creation approaches and methods based on this vision.

Based on the recognition of these issues, we have formulated the plan and, at the same time, a vision for the Group targeting the year 2030.

* Business profit = operating profit + share of profit (loss) of entities accounted for using equity method + amortization of intangible assets associated with corporate acquisitions
