On the other hand, SMFG decreased 0.6% to 551.2 billion yen.
Net income fell by double digits for all three companies due to rising costs of credit due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection. However, when comparing the amount of credit costs recorded with the initial forecast, SMFG and Mizuho FG remained low, in part because the government started supporting company financing.
On the other hand, the opinion on the earnings environment as of the second half is cautious. Hironori Kamezawa, president of MUFG, said that “the economic recovery will take longer than initially expected.” The annual cost of credit increased by 50 billion yen from the initial plan to 500 billion yen. Jun Ota, president of SMFG, also believes that many clients have potential risks, suggesting that credit costs may increase in the second half of the year.
Mizuho FG Chairman Tatsufumi Sakai, who revised trade results upwards, explained that the economic recovery scenario was “revised downwards”. Initially, it was assumed that the time to return to the level before the spread of the new corona infection was at the end of 2009, but for now, it is expected to be delayed until the end of 2010 or the first quarter (April to June) of 2011.
