1. Details

Upon the decision to sell MUB due to the conclusion of the share transfer agreement, MUAH recognizes quarterly gains or losses due to fluctuations in the market value of MUB's assets as a result of the application of the market value evaluation (lower of cost or market) to the business subject to sale related to the share transfer.

Due to the rise in U.S. interest rates, MUAH posted a loss of �271.2 billion for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending December 2022 (January to March 2022) mainly due to the fair value valuation of securities and loans to be sold. ^[2]

This valuation loss was reflected in the consolidated financial results of MUFG for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, which were announced today.

In addition, with the rise in interest rates since the end of March 2022, MUAH is expected to record an additional loss of approximately �360 billion in the second quarter of the fiscal year ending December 2022 (April to June 2022) mainly due to the fair value valuation of securities and loans to be sold. ^[3]

As a result, MUFG's consolidated financial results for the first half of the fiscal year ending March 2023 will reflect these losses totaling approximately �630 billion.

2. Impact on business performance

Among the total valuation loss of approximately �630 billion, approximately �440 billion related to tax effects of available-for-sale securities and held-to-maturity securities and loans and other assets are expected to be recorded as extraordinary gains upon the sale to USB.

And valuation losses that are not expected to be recorded as extraordinary gains have been hedged. ^[4] As a result, MUFG's profits attributable to owners of parent for the full fiscal year is expected to be reduced by approximately �200 billion. ^[5]

Although fluctuations in total credit costs and ordinary profits may occur, MUFG's earnings target for the fiscal year ending March 2023 for Profits attributable to owners of parent of �1,000 billion, which was announced on May 16, 2022, included the loss of approximately �200 billion mentioned above. Therefore, there is no change to the earnings target.
