Business

Tokio Marine Holdings comprises four segments: the Domestic Non-Life Insurance Business centered on Tokio Marine & Nichido Fire Insurance; the Domestic Life Insurance Business through Tokio Marine & Nichido Life Insurance; the International Insurance Business, which spans North America, Europe, Asia, and other regions; and Solutions & Other Businesses, which includes ID&E Holdings. The group comprises 436 subsidiaries and 25 affiliated companies, delivering a wide range of value from insurance underwriting and asset management to disaster prevention and mitigation solutions. Its principal customers span individuals, corporations, and public institutions, and it has built a globally diversified risk portfolio.

Business Model

The core business model has a dual structure: earning underwriting profit from insurance premiums collected from policyholders, while investing the accumulated assets to build up investment income. Domestically, the company pursues profit improvement through product and rate revisions; overseas, it promotes highly profitable underwriting centered on North American specialty insurance. In addition, it is nurturing the Solutions business as a third pillar of earnings, aiming to diversify customer touchpoints and revenue sources by providing risk-reduction services integrated with insurance.

Company Strengths

Insurance revenue in the International Insurance Business reached ¥4,448,332 million (up ¥199,270 million, +4.7% year on year), and insurance service result reached ¥783,649 million, making it the Group's largest profit-contributing segment. Philadelphia, Delphi, and PURE in North America each achieved record profits in fiscal 2025, with sophisticated underwriting capabilities in the specialty insurance field serving as a source of competitive advantage.'

In the Domestic Non-Life Insurance Business, product and rate revisions were implemented for Automobile Insurance and Fire Insurance, expanding insurance revenue in FY2026 (ending March 2026) to ¥3,040,655 million (up ¥105,562 million year on year). Insurance service result improved significantly to ¥257,461 million (up ¥98,690 million year on year), and profit attributable to owners of parent reached ¥237,541 million (up ¥103,960 million, +77.8% year on year).

In the Domestic Life Insurance Business, the contractual service margin (CSM) balance increased to ¥1,149,767 million (up ¥31,814 million, +2.9% year on year), reflecting an accumulation of unearned profit to be recognized progressively as insurance revenue in the future. Strong demand for Variable Life Insurance "Market Link" and the rollout of new products for mid-sized and small-to-medium enterprises are supporting the growth in this balance.

ENVALITH's Perspective

From FY2026 (ending March 2026), the measurement method for insurance contracts changes significantly due to the adoption of IFRS 17. Segment profit for the Domestic Life Insurance Business was ¥(204,860) million, with the loss widening from the prior period's ¥(80,979) million. Insurance finance expenses (net) for variable life insurance ballooned to ¥(167,640) million, reflecting a structure in which market conditions—equity and interest rate fluctuations—directly affect insurance finance income/expenses. Investors need to appropriately factor in the increased profit/loss volatility following the transition to IFRS.

The earnings forecast for the following fiscal year projects net income attributable to owners of the parent of ¥830,000 million (basic earnings per share of ¥441.83), a substantial increase. The assumptions include net incurred losses of ¥1,050 million from domestic natural catastrophes and ¥950 million overseas, and assume that market interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and stock prices will not fluctuate significantly from the levels as of the end of March 2026. Since external factors such as foreign exchange and interest rate movements have a substantial impact on actual results, sensitivity analysis with respect to changes in these underlying assumptions is a key point for investment decisions.

The annual dividend for FY2026 (ending March 2026) is ¥218.00 (versus ¥172.00 in the prior period), with a high dividend payout ratio of 78.0%. The forecast dividend for FY2027 (ending March 2027) is ¥245.00 (payout ratio of 55.5%). Meanwhile, to mitigate dilution from the third-party allotment of shares to National Indemnity (48,207,200 shares), the company resolved to conduct share buybacks of up to ¥287.4 billion from April to September 2026, and in May 2026 further resolved an additional buyback of up to 130 million shares / ¥200.0 billion. Amid continued large-scale capital movements, it is necessary to continuously monitor the balance between capital efficiency and financial soundness.
