KOEI TECMO HOLDINGS substantially raised its first-half earnings forecasts. The company announced that its operating profit forecast had been raised from the previous ¥7.0 billion to ¥11.5 billion, while its ordinary profit forecast was lifted from ¥12.0 billion to ¥25.0 billion.
The revision reflects stronger-than-expected sales of major titles released in the previous fiscal year and back-catalogue products.
Although the company left its full-year forecasts unchanged, the outlook could support further upward revisions going forward. The share price has rebounded sharply following the announcement.
