Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

The Games business was affected by lower revenue in the first quarter, the shortfall in securing titles adopted for release in Europe and the United States, and upfront investment to strengthen overseas expansion. The Enterprise business was affected by the fading of the special demand associated with the launch of new karaoke models in the previous year and a shift toward the R&D phase in the cloud solutions field.
