Financial Results Presentation for the Second Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending January 2027

Cumulative revenue for the second quarter was broadly in line with the same period of the previous fiscal year, but upfront investment, including development costs for new titles, increased, causing the operating loss to widen. In addition, the full-year earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending January 2027 was not disclosed because revenue from multiple new titles is difficult to forecast.

The reasons the company gives

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

While the effect of the anime broadcast of The Promise of Wizard in the previous fiscal year ran its course, the media business grew. The operating loss widened because new development projects reached the critical phase of development, increasing upfront investment including R&D expenses. The full-year forecast was not disclosed because it is difficult to calculate revenue from multiple new businesses, forecast revenue trends amid rapidly changing competitive conditions in the mobile online game market, and make agile investment decisions in new development and other areas.
