Fiscal Year Ending February 2027 — Q2 Financial Presentation

Key Points of the Results

For Q2 of the fiscal year ending February 2027, consolidated revenue was 2,285 million yen (YoY -1.4%), and the company materially exceeded its first-half profit plan. Operating income was 218 million yen, ordinary income was 215 million yen, and interim net income attributable to owners of the parent was 195 million yen, outperforming plan on the profitability front. Profitability improved due to cost containment for the IP business's online lottery and an increase in license-out projects. While maintaining a second-half weighted plan, the full-year forecast remains unchanged. A 200 million yen share buyback has been completed.

Outlook and Impact for Investors

The full-year forecast will be maintained pending closer assessment of second-half trends. New title launches for games, online lotteries, and publishing are scheduled, and are expected to contribute to second-half earnings. As part of capital policy, a 200 million yen share buyback has been completed to enhance flexibility in shareholder returns. The company intends to balance growth investments and shareholder returns while maintaining financial soundness.
