The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The "Palworld Official Card Game," launched in July 2026, performed strongly, exceeding expectations and driving sales in the TCG unit. Meanwhile, "BanG Dream! Our Notes" made a limited contribution because of the impact of unauthorized access, while higher energy and other costs due to global conditions put downward pressure on the MD unit's profit margin. The full-year forecast has been revised to reflect the TCG's actual results and expected future shipments.
