Bandai Namco missed its 2006–2009 mid-term plan objectives as consolidated net sales fell 7.4% to ¥426.4 billion and net income dropped 63.8% to ¥11.8 billion due to the global financial crisis.
Operating income across the group declined 33.1% to ¥22.3 billion, with all three core segments experiencing double-digit contractions.
The Amusement Facilities segment suffered the most severe impact, with sales falling 14% and operating profit plummeting 76%.
The Game Contents segment generated ¥150.3 billion in net sales and ¥11.6 billion in operating income, though the company forecast a further decline in operating profit to ¥5.5 billion for FY 2010.
Toys & Hobby sales decreased by 8% with a corresponding 19% fall in operating profit.
The company initiated a strategic shift toward overseas expansion, evidenced by Japan’s share of external sales dropping from 81% in FY 2006 to 74%.
