Guidance

No company revenue or EPS outlook; Aflac raised its 2026 Japan segment pretax margin range to 35%–38% and expects U.S. margin above 17%–20%.

Why this label: Only segment ratio/margin outlook (EX-99.3 call remarks); Japan pretax margin range 'raised' is a segment item, not core; no company revenue/EPS guide.
