Lease transactions as a lessee
Right-of-use assets of finance leases, which are principally related to data processing equipment and included in Premises and equipment in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, amounted to ¥21,035 million and ¥23,137 million at March 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively. Lease liabilities of these finance leases, which are included in Long-term debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, amounted to ¥21,460 million and ¥26,088 million at March 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively.
Right-of-use assets of operating leases, which are principally related to office space and equipment are included in Other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, amounted to ¥247,221 million and ¥282,736 million at March 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively. Lease liabilities of these operating leases, which are included in Other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, amounted to ¥341,499 million and ¥370,365 million at March 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively.
For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and 2026, the MUFG Group recognized ¥19,520 million and ¥15,968 million, respectively, of impairment losses for Right-of-use assets of operating leases, where recovery of the carrying amount is doubtful. The losses are included in Other non-interest expenses.
The discount rates used in determining the present value of leases are the MUFG Group’s incremental borrowing rate, developed based upon each lease’s term and currency of payment. The lease term includes options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the MUFG Group will exercise that option. The MUFG Group has elected to exclude leases with original terms of less than one year from the operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The MUFG Group’s lease arrangements that have not yet commenced as of March 31, 2026 are not material. Variable lease costs did not have a material impact on the MUFG Group’s results of operations.
