7 Impact of Rising Interest Rates on the Company ✓ Impact on expenses related to credit is limited ✓ Meanwhile, investment income is expected to increase, resulting in a significant positive impact overall Expenses related to credit ✓ Many variable interest rate housing loans are subject to the 125% rule*, making it unlikely that the subrogation rate will increase due to a higher burden on households ✓ Even when subrogation occurs, over 70% is recovered through property disposal, limiting the impact on expenses related to credit Non-operating income/expenses ✓ The Company manages a total of over 400 billion yen, comprising guarantee fees (unearned revenue) and required capital, and investment yields will rise by replacing assets in the portfolio in line with the redemption of held-to-maturity securities ✓ Bonds held by the Company constitute a portfolio with diversified redemption terms, and continuous increase in yield can be expected. ✓ As interest rates rise, some financial institutions are once again adopting proactive promotion policies, increasing the needs to use ZENKOKU HOSHO as an external guarantor ✓ As the needs for the Company’s services increase, outstanding guarantee exposure will accumulate, leading to a gradual increase in operating revenue Operating revenue * Special clauses for variable interest rate housing loans that limit the repayment amount to 1.25 times at the time of review every five years. They apply to many housing loans in Japan. Demand is expected to increase Limited impact Positive Impact on the Company (1-5 years)
