    JAPANESE AMERICAN CULTURAL & COMMUNITY CENTER ANNUAL REPORT 2016–2017 A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT The 2016–2017 Fiscal Year marked a year of planning with confidence and intentionality. JACCC was fortunate to have been granted support from the DeVos Institute of Arts Management at the University of Maryland allowing us to work for eight months with Brett Egan, one of the nation’s top leaders in strategic planning. JACCC leadership, which included both board and staff, created a plan to span through 2022, mapping out our future and allowing for course-corrections as needed. This Fiscal Year also marks the fourth consecutive year that JACCC has maintained a positive operating budget. This is due to the commitment of our donors and supporters who have helped us stabilize our operations and continue to make a significant impact on the experiences of every artist, audience member, and participant, young and young at heart who visits and enjoys the programs at JACCC. As I head toward my fifth year of leading this institution, I am thankful every day for the hard work and dedication of our staff and board members. Their efforts have helped us get to a place where we are able to plan strategically and confidently, and bring our audiences a mul- titude of programming ranging from traditional to contemporary: Edo period art of the Price Collection, master artists like Nomura Mansaku, the Comedy Comedy Fest, and Ukuleles for Little Tokyo. It has truly been an exciting and full year. Sincerely, Leslie A. Ito President & CEO JACCC MISSION A hub for Japanese and Japanese American arts and culture and a community gathering place for the diverse voices it inspires—Japanese American Cultural & Community Center connects traditional and contemporary; community participants and creative professionals; Southern California and the world beyond.

  • DAIWA Earnings Analysis of Major Banks–I
    DAIWA DAIWA INSTITUTE OF RESEARCH LTD. 6 December 2007 (No of pages: 19) Earnings Analysis of Major Banks–I —1H FY07 Earnings Summary and Operating Environment— (Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp is affiliated with Daiwa Securities SMBC. See disclaimer below.) Equity Research Dept Akira Takai • Major banks’ aggregate 1H FY07 parent real net business profit (total sum of group banks) edged down 2.6% y/y to Y1,614.8 billion. Domestic net interest income expanded, mainly thanks to improvement in loan-deposit interest rate spreads. Treasury operations apparently improved overall, helped by lower overseas interest rates. Meanwhile, slow growth in net fee/commission income and an increase in overhead weighed on profit. • However, the main factor dragging down profit was aggregate credit costs net of recoveries, which reached Y366.1 billion, reversing course net credit recoveries of Y244.9 booked a year earlier. A number of banks took a hit from earnings deterioration at group non-banks and higher income taxes due to the realization of deferred tax assets during the year-earlier period. This capped aggregate consolidated net income at Y947.9 billion, 45.4% below the 1H FY06 figure, which was the highest in history. However, solid profitability prompted some banks to resume or raise common dividends in 1H. • The BOJ did not raise interest rates in 1H, after having lifted the unsecured overnight call rate 0.25% twice in FY06. The bond market retreated in 1Q but began to rebound in 2Q. Meanwhile, global equity markets pulled back in response to the deepening subprime loan crisis in August, causing Japanese equities to plummet.
