[Qualitative information and financial statements]

1. Qualitative information concerning the consolidated results of operations

In the first three quarters of the current fiscal year, the Japanese economy remained in a severe situation of worsened income, because of stagnant capital investment and high unemployment rate even though export and production levels slightly improved and economic policy pushed up consumer spending in some part.

Under such conditions, the result of operations of Nipponkoa in the first three quarters of the current fiscal year is as follows.

633.6 billion yen of underwriting income, 38.2 billion yen of investment income and 0.5 billion yen of other operating income resulted in operating income of 672.4 billion yen, which was a decrease of 48.3 billion yen compared to the first three quarters of the previous fiscal year.

In contrast, 534.0 billion yen of underwriting expenses, 9.7 billion yen of investment expenses, 104.5 billion yen of operating and administrative expenses and 0.6 billion yen of the other operating expenses resulted in operating expenses of 649.0 billion yen, which was a decrease of 60.9 billion yen compared to the first three quarters of the previous fiscal year.

As a result, Nipponkoa recorded an ordinary profit of 23.4 billion yen, which was an increase of 12.5 billion yen compared to the first three quarters of the previous fiscal year. Addition of special gains and losses to the ordinary profit and deduction of total income taxes and minority interests from the ordinary profit resulted in net income of 13.9 billion yen, which was a decrease of 5.8 billion yen compared to the first three quarters of the previous fiscal year.

In the business of non-life insurance, net premiums written was 489.5 billion yen, which was a decrease of 16.7 billion yen compared to the first three quarters of the previous fiscal year, and net losses paid was 305.0 billion yen, which was an increase of 1.1 billion yen compared to the first three quarters of the previous fiscal year. In a voluntary automobile insurance, a major line of business, net premiums written was decreased by 3.4 billion yen to 248.3 billion yen and net losses paid was increased by 2.8 billion yen to 155.5 billion yen compared to the first three quarters of the previous fiscal year.

In contrast, in the business of life insurance, net premiums were 48.0 billion yen, which was an increase of 0.6 billion yen compared to the first three quarters of the previous fiscal year. Life insurance losses and other payments were 8.9 billion yen, which was an increase of 0.7 billion yen compared to the first three quarters of the previous fiscal year.

2. Qualitative information concerning the consolidated financial positions

The total assets amounted to 3,047.3 billion yen, which was a decrease of 42.2 billion yen as compared to the previous fiscal year-end, as a result of a decrease of Payable under securities lending transactions, as a major factor, while the Total valuation and translation adjustments on the available-for-sale securities increased due to a rise of stock prices and other factors.

3. Forecasts of consolidated results of operations (from April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010)

There was no change in the forecasts of consolidated results of operations since last announced on November 19, 2009.

(Notes) The amounts and figures indicated above are calculated in accordance with Articles 86 and 87 of the Enforcement Regulations of the Insurance Business Law and with Ministry of Finance Notification No.50 of 1996.

However, calculation of Major catastrophe risks for the third quarter-end is partly simplified by using figures calculated at the previous quarter-end.

•

While non-life insurance companies accumulate policy reserves to prepare for the payment of insurance for actual losses incurred and maturity refund of savings-type insurance policies etc., sufficient solvency should be maintained in the event the company is exposed to an extraordinary risk that cannot be predicted because of the occurrence of a major disaster, a widespread decline in prices with regard to assets which the non-life insurance companies own, etc.

•

Solvency margin ratio ((C) in the above table) is an index calculated under the Insurance Business Law etc. that indicates the ratio of the “solvency margin of a non-life insurance company by means of its capital, reserves, etc.” ((A) in the above table) to “risks which will exceed usual estimates” ((B) in above table).

•

The “risks that exceed usual estimates” is the total of each of the following risk types.

i. Underwriting Risk (Ordinary Insurance Risks, Third-sector Insurance Risks):

Risks of the payment of insurance claims in excess of usual estimates. (excluding major catastrophe risk)

ii. Risk of assumed interest rate (Assumed Interest Risks):

Risks that may arise as a result of an actual return on investment that is lower than the assumed interest rate at the time the insurance premium is calculated.

iii. Asset Management Risks:

Risks of retained securities and other assets fluctuating in prices in excess of usual estimates, etc.

iv. Business Management Risks:

Risks other than i. through iii. above and v. that may arise in the business operations in excess of usual estimates.

v. Major Catastrophe Risks:

Risks of the occurrence of major catastrophes as a result of major disasters (such as the Great Kanto earthquake, the Ise Bay Typhoon or equivalent) in excess of usual estimates.

•

The “solvency margin of a non-life insurance company by means of its capital, reserves, etc.” (Total amount of solvency margin) is the amount of a non-life insurance company’s net assets, reserves (such as reserve for price fluctuations, catastrophe reserve and others), unrealized gain or loss on land etc.

•

The solvency margin ratio is one of the indices that regulatory authorities use to determine the soundness of an insurance company. It is generally held that insurance company is “adequate in terms of solvency to meet insurance payments” if the ratio is 200% or more.
