Details of the Revision to Earnings Guidance
Mars Group Holdings Co., Ltd. has revised its full-year consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2026, lowering net sales from 37,500 million yen to 32,250 million yen (down 14.0%), operating income from 10,700 million yen to 8,700 million yen (down 18.7%), ordinary income from 11,500 million yen to 9,550 million yen (down 17.0%), and net income attributable to owners of parent from 7,800 million yen to 6,550 million yen (down 16.0%). Net income per share is also expected to decrease from 422.93 yen to 355.02 yen.
Background of the Revision and Future Outlook
The main factor is the deterioration of the revenue environment in the pachinko industry within the amusement-related business. Rising labor and utility costs, along with increased equipment expenses including gaming machines, have made pachinko halls more cautious about capital investments, and the penetration rate of smart pachinko fell short of expectations. Despite efforts to strengthen sales of the total system, both net sales and profits are projected to fall below previous forecasts. Meanwhile, the dividend forecast remains unchanged as initially planned.
