Disclaimer
- Figures are reproduced as filed and are not restated: a change of accounting standard or of consolidation basis moves the series without anything happening to the business. Where that happened, the table says so in place of the year-on-year figure.
- Ratios and per-employee figures are computed from the filed lines rather than taken from the filing, and use year-end balances rather than averages.

Japan Tobacco’s history, presidents and financials
are published as static JSON — no key, plain GET. One API per
public page, and one per section where a page carries several tables.
