| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |

## Asset intensity and goodwill

Ratios are derived from reported values. Goodwill is used only when separately reported, never inferred from combined intangible assets.

| Metric | Value | Sources |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Asset intensity (fixed assets ÷ revenue) | 7.2% | S100Y53G |
| Fixed assets ÷ total assets | 0.5% | S100Y53G |
| Goodwill ÷ parent equity | 7.8% | S100Y53G |

Goodwill over 4 years: 14,924 → 36,156 JPY; total investing cash flow: -717,771 JPY. This does not imply causation.

### Cash quality

Net cash = cash − interest-bearing debt. Net debt ratio = (interest-bearing debt − cash) ÷ positive operating cash flow. Omit when debt components are incomplete; other ratios are derived from reported figures.

| Metric | Value |
| --- | ---: |
| Cash ratio (cash ÷ total assets) | 8.0% |
| Cash ÷ revenue | 116.4% |
| Net cash (cash − interest-bearing debt) | -¥392.7B |
| Net debt ÷ operating cash flow | 1.29× |
| Cash conversion (operating CF ÷ operating income) | 500.6% |
| Cash vs. profit gap | 282,573 JPY mn (of net income 1339.7%) |
| Shareholder returns / net income | 54.2% |
| Shareholder returns / FCF | 4.3% |
| Shareholder payments — dividends / net income | 54.2% |
| Shareholder payments — dividends / FCF | 4.3% |
| CapEx intensity (capex ÷ revenue) | 6.5% |
| Investing CF relative to operating CF | 139.6% |

## ROA and ROE

ROE is decomposed into net margin × asset turnover × financial leverage. Leverage can raise ROE, so the ratio alone does not assess a company's condition. Ending balances are used without a prior year; total equity approximates parent equity when unavailable.

## AI commentary（text by AI; the tables above are authoritative、claude-code）

- Revenue for the FY ending Feb 2026 was ¥569.4B, up +6.8% from ¥533.3B.
- Operating income dipped -1.3% to ¥60.7B from ¥61.5B.
- Net income attributable to owners rose +34.8% to ¥21.1B from ¥15.6B.
- Operating cash flow fell -12.6% to ¥303.7B, and free cash flow fell -13.3% to ¥266.8B.

### Drivers

- In domestic Retail, larger revolving and installment balances plus higher interest rates lifted loan interest and investment income, but deposit interest and other funding costs rose too, so operating income fell
- Domestic Solutions earned more fee income, helped by taking over the WAON e-money issuing business from AEON Retail
- The Malay Area grew sales and profit on stronger motorcycle, used-car and card volumes; in the Mekong Area, goodwill amortization from buying a Vietnamese lender kept operating income flat

### Risks

- A sharp economic downturn could push loan losses above what the company expects
- Phishing, card fraud and cyberattacks could bring compensation costs and hurt customer trust
- AEON Bank is working through a business improvement order from the Financial Services Agency over its anti-money-laundering controls
