This reflects the upward revision of earnings guidance and demonstrates a commitment to enhancing shareholder returns. It is also noted that the earnings outlook may change due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the economic environment.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales: 468,000 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +8.8%)\nOperating Income: 131,000 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +14.9%)\nOperating Income: 123,000 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +16.0%)\nOrdinary Income: 123,000 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +16.0%)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 86,000 million yen (Compared to previous forecast +14.7%)\nBasic EPS: 634.42 yen (Increase compared to previous forecast)\nAnnual Dividend (Total): 190.5 yen (Increase compared to previous forecast)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#KonamiGroupCorporation, #EarningsGuidanceRevision, #DividendIncrease, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Net Sales: 468,000 million yen (up 8.8% compared to previous forecast)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 86,000 million yen (up 14.7% compared to previous forecast)\nAnnual Dividend: 190.5 yen (increased from previous forecast)","jir_meta_title":"Konami Group Upwardly Revises FY March 2026 Earnings Guidance to 468 Billion Yen in Net Sales and 14.7% Profit Increase","jir_meta_description":"Konami Group Corporation has upwardly revised its net sales to 468.0 billion yen and net income attributable to owners of parent to 86.0 billion yen for the fiscal year ending March 2026, and increased the annual dividend to 190.5 yen.
