2Consolidated Operating Results for
the Year Ended March 31,, 20133

Management Review
FY2012 Results and FY2013 Forecast (Consolidated) During FY2012, we maintained stable and sustainable business growth in all the businesses: life
insurance, non-life insurance and banking. In addition, thanks to the market recovery, we posted
increases in revenues and profit year on year, which exceeded our previous forecast announced on
February 2013.
 For FY2013 forecast, stable and sustainable business growth is expected, however, both revenues
and profit are expected to decrease year on year. This is because we do not expect such increases
in revenues and profit due to the market recovery as recorded in FY2012. We also anticipate anegative impact resulting from the revision of discount rate used for calculating policy reserves.
 Without the above mentioned factors
factors, we expect stable increases in revenues and profit in FY2013
FY2013.

Sony Life’s MCEV During FY2012
FY2012, Sony Life
Life’ss MCEV steadily increased due to an increase in policies in force,
orce aswell as reducing the impact of lower interest rates, based on Sony Life’s ALM initiatives. Risk
amount is also fully controlled within a low level of MCEV.

Return
R t
tto ShShareholders
h ld We plan to pay a year-end dividend of ¥25 per share for FY2012, up ¥5 from FY2011.
We will continue to return profits to shareholders through steadily increasing dividends.
 At this moment,
moment we plan to pay a year
year-end
end dividend of ¥25 per share for FY2013
FY2013, unchanged from
FY2012.

Ordinary profit is expected to decrease, since we do not expect such a reversal of policy reserves related to minimum
guarantees for variable life insurance policies as recorded in the previous fiscal year. We also expect provision for policy reserves toincrease reflecting a revision of discount rate used for calculating policy reserves.
■Non-life insurance business
Ordinary revenues are expected to increase year on year, owing to an increase in net premiums written, primarily for automobile insurance.
Ordinary profit is expected to increase because we expect higher revenues and lower loss ratio.

 MCEV steadily increased through Sony Life’s efforts to increase policy amount in force and reduce a negative
impact of lower interest rates with its ALM initiatives. This is because an increase in adjusted net worth led by arise in price of ultralong-term JGBs held for ALM purpose, was enough to offset a decrease in value of existing
business resulting from lower interest rates in the ultralong term
term.
 New business value and new business margin(*) were ¥41.6 billion and 3.5% as of March 31, 2013, down comparedwith ¥65.2 billion and 6.4% as of March 31, 2012, due mainly to lower interest rates in the ultralong term.

Note1: The risk amount based on economic value refers to the total amount of Sony Life’s risks, comprehensively examined and including
insurance risk and market-related risk.
Note2: The solvency risk capital on an economic value basis is calibrated at VaR (99.5) over one year and based on the internal model, which isa similar but modified model based on the EU Solvency II (QIS5) standard method.
* Please keep in mind that the validity of these calculations has not been verified by outside specialists. The calculation of MCEV as of March 31, 2013,in accordance with the MCEV principles and verified by outside specialists, is scheduled to be announced on May 27, 2013.
