Nomura's quarterly profit rises 13% on expanding wealth management fees

Momentum: 5.5/10 2 min read
Tokyo, Japan

Nomura Holdings reported net profit of 103.7 billion yen for July to September 2026, up 13% from 92.1 billion yen a year earlier, driven by expanding wealth management fees, though revenue came in below consensus.


Nomura Holdings reported net profit of 103.7 billion yen for the July to September quarter, up 13% from 92.1 billion yen a year earlier, driven by expanding wealth management fees, Reuters reported.

American depositary receipt earnings of 22 cents a share beat the 20-cent consensus, while revenue of 3.99 billion dollars came in below the 4.12 billion dollar consensus, according to MarketBeat.

The profit figure and the wealth management driver come from Reuters' coverage of the results, while the earnings-per-share and revenue consensus comparisons come from MarketBeat's earnings data. The two accounts agree on the direction of the quarter: profit up, with revenue softer than expected.

Wealth management fees have become the central support for Nomura's earnings as the firm leans further into fee-based business, and the next quarterly update early next year will show whether that momentum holds through the end of the fiscal year.
