Financial and Pre-Financial Highlights

Adjusted Consolidated Profit / Adjusted Consolidated ROE

Increased profit and high capital efficiency
Adjusted consolidated profit in fiscal 2020 totaled ¥202.1 billion, and adjusted consolidated ROE reached a record-high 8.0%. We made steady progress toward achieving our fiscal 2023 targets of ¥300 billion and 10% or higher, respectively.

Risk Diversification Ratio / Overseas Business Ratio

Increased earnings stability and resilience
Seeking to improve earnings stability and build a resilient business portfolio, we have set risk diversification ratio and overseas business ratio as KPIs under our new Mid-Term Management Plan. By fiscal 2023, the final year of the plan, we aim to raise the risk diversification ratio (from 39.4% in fiscal 2020) and achieve an overseas business ratio of 30% or higher.

Shareholder Returns

Attractive shareholder returns achieved
Total shareholder returns (dividends paid + share buybacks) steadily increased in line with growth in adjusted consolidated profit. We will continue aiming to realize attractive shareholder returns. We expect to pay year-on-year increases in dividends for the eighth consecutive periods (including our forecast for fiscal 2021). Our policy under the new Mid-Term Management Plan is to continue increasing dividends and raising the ratio of dividends to shareholder returns.

Net premiums written in fiscal 2020 totaled ¥2,923.5 billion, up ¥98.0 billion year on year.

As part of “SDGs in Business Management,” positioned as a Group Management Foundation, we have launched “SOMPO Climate Action” to expedite our efforts to tackle climate change. To mitigate climate change, in fiscal 2021 we set a new greenhouse gas reduction target of becoming “carbon neutral in 2050.” To this end, we are helping create a greener society where the economy, society, and environment are in harmony, for example by switching electricity used in the Group’s main buildings to renewable energy.
