The primary factor is increased investment in new development projects, and in the second half, the company aims to return to profitability through the cost recovery phase of development and contributions from existing IP. The Disney project is supported by strong reception and robust merchandise sales, aiming to maximize long-term IP value.\n\n### Outlook and risks\nPerformance may fluctuate significantly depending on the sales trend of new titles, so the full-year forecast is not disclosed at the earnings announcement. However, the plan is to continue cost recovery for development expenses and to expand revenue opportunities from IP in the second half. The Disney project's release is being prepared toward November with a focus on quality in development decisions.","jir_financial_highlights":"Operating loss: 850 million yen (YoY about 100 million yen increase)\nExisting business profit: approx. 45 million yen (Unknown)\nDisney Sparkling Stars: Goods sales are strong (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#coly, #EarningsBriefing","jir_key_figures":"Operating loss: 850 million yen (YoY about 100 million yen)\nExisting business profit: approx. 45 million yen\nDisney Sparkling Stars: Goods sales strong (no specific figures)","jir_meta_title":"\u3010coly\u3011Earnings Briefing Q&A Summary\uff5cFiscal Year 2027 1Q 2nd Quarter","jir_meta_description":"Coly Co., Ltd. 2027 fiscal year 1Q 2nd quarter earnings briefing Q&A summary.
