Current tax expenses include the amount of benefits arising from previously unrecognized tax loss carryforwards and temporary differences of prior years that are used to reduce the current taxes. Corporate tax, inhabitant tax and deductible enterprise tax are levied to the Coincheck, and the statutory tax rate in Japan calculated based on these taxes was 30.6% for the years ended March 31, 2024 and 2025.

As a result of the enactment of the “Act Partially Amending the Income Tax Act, etc.” (Act No. 13 of 2025) by the Japan National Diet on March 31, 2025, the corporate tax rate of Coincheck and other subsidiaries in Japan changed from the fiscal year beginning from April 1, 2026. Accordingly, the statutory effective tax rate used in the calculation of the relevant deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities has been changed from 30.6% to 31.5%.

As these consolidated financial statements are presented as a continuation of Coincheck, the statutory effective tax rate of Coincheck Parent (25.8% for the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2026, and 30.6% for the year ended March 31, 2024) has been used for the rate reconciliation below, with local corporate and other tax rates applied for other subsidiaries. Reconciliation between the statutory effective tax rate and the effective tax rate in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income is as follows:
