However, the overall impact on our growth was broad-based. Edmund Reese, CFO: M&A strengthened in Q1 and Q2, with modest growth expected in the second half.

Q: Is the M&A transactional book overweight in any geography or industry vertical, and how does its margin compare to the core P&C margin?

Edmund Reese, CFO: M&A growth is broad-based across regions, with margins in line with our expectations. The focus is on margin expansion across our solutions. Q: Can you elaborate on the strong free cash flow growth in the quarter and the contribution from NFP? A: Edmund Reese, CFO: Free cash flow growth was driven by operating income growth, including contributions from NFP, working capital improvements, and lower transaction and integration costs. We are confident in achieving $300 million in free cash flow contribution from NFP in 2025. Q: How are you progressing with the NFP acquisition in terms of revenue and cost synergies?

Mitsubishi Electric to Transfer Shares of Insurance Subsidiary to Marsh Japan
TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that it has concluded a share transfer agreement under which it will transfer shares of its Tokyo-based subsidiary Mitsubishi Electric Insurance Service Co., Ltd. to Marsh Japan, Inc. on November 4. Since its establishment in 1999 as an insurance agency for the Mitsubishi Electric Group, Mitsubishi Electric Insurance Service has supported the growth of companies and the life plans of individuals. Marsh Japan, which provides services and solutions to companies of all sizes across Japan, was founded in 1955 as a Japanese subsidiary of Marsh LLC, a world-leading insurance broker and risk advisor owned by Marsh McLennan (NYSE: MMC). Mitsubishi Electric has been assessing the significance of the insurance business in its portfolio, aiming to further strengthen the company's overall business structure. Considering the evolving business environment for insurance agencies in Japan, Mitsubishi Electric determined having Mitsubishi Electric Insurance Service teamed up with Marsh Japan would best position the company for long-term growth supported by Marsh LLC's global insurance expertise. The impact of the transaction on Mitsubishi Electric's consolidated financial results is not included in its financial forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, announced on April 28, 2025, but it is expected to be minor. If there is any significant change, updates will be announced promptly as required.
