1. Matters Related to Summary Information (Notes)

(1) Changes in Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates / Restatements

(Changes in Accounting Policies)

(Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition and Others)

MHFG has applied “Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition” (ASBJ Statement No.29, March 31, 2020) and others from the beginning of the interim period ended September 30, 2021.

In accordance with “Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition”, MHFG recognizes revenue at the time of the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which MHFG expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

In accordance with transitional treatment set out in the proviso of Article 84 of “Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition”, the cumulative effects arising from the retroactive application of these new accounting policies to all the previous fiscal years were reflected in Retained Earnings as of April 1, 2021, and the new accounting policies are applied from the beginning of the fiscal year.

As a result of the cumulative effects arising from the retroactive application of these new accounting policies, Retained Earnings of the interim consolidated statement of changes in net assets decreased by ¥724 million as of April 1, 2021. The impact on the interim consolidated balance sheet, the interim consolidated statement of income and per share information for the interim period ended September 30, 2021 is immaterial.
