Reason for the revision

For the consolidated forecast, the reasons are growth of the MapleStory franchise and FC franchise, the change from a foreign exchange loss to a foreign exchange gain, and the absence this fiscal year of an expected impairment loss on equity-method investments recorded in the prior fiscal year. For the non-consolidated forecast, the reasons include the contribution to revenue from the launch of the domestic Japanese service for "Mabinogi Mobile," net sales growth, and an increase in non-operating income from dividends received from subsidiaries.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The consolidated forecast is based on higher revenue driven by growth in the MapleStory franchise and FC franchise, the expectation of a foreign exchange gain this fiscal year versus a foreign exchange loss in the prior fiscal year, and the absence this fiscal year of an impairment loss on equity-method investments recorded in the prior fiscal year. The non-consolidated forecast reflects the contribution to revenue from the launch of the domestic Japanese service for "Mabinogi Mobile," sales growth, and an increase in non-operating income from dividends received from subsidiaries, among other factors.
