In particular, hit titles in the manga business increased page views and monetization, boosting overall sales. Meanwhile, advance investments in core new IP areas and the recording of performance-linked bonus provisions resulted in operating income only showing a modest uplift. Although detailed year-over-year figures are not provided here, the sales upside contributed to overall revenue growth.\n\n### Impact for Shareholders and Future Outlook\nConsidering the sales beat and certain increased expense factors, the company will continue investing in new IP areas to pursue long-term growth.
