Consolidated Financial Statements for the First Quarter of Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2026 (Japanese GAAP)
Akatsuki Inc. experienced a significant downturn in financial performance during the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, characterized by a 44.0% year-on-year decline in net sales to ¥2,313 million. This contraction led to a widened operating loss of ¥1,698 million and a net loss of ¥1,167 million. The primary driver of this decline was the Games business, where revenue plummeted 52.3% to ¥1,782 million. This segment’s performance was impacted by a strategic portfolio review and a transition period for flagship titles such as Dragon Ball Z Dokkan Battle, resulting in a segment loss of ¥1,643 million. Furthermore, the company recorded a ¥103 million extraordinary loss stemming from the discontinuation of a specific game title and subsequent organizational restructuring. Despite these challenges in the core gaming sector, the newly reclassified IP Solutions segment emerged as a growth driver, with revenue increasing 167.2% to ¥298 million and achieving a segment profit of ¥122 million following the consolidation of CRAYON, Inc. Conversely, the Comics business saw an 18.3% revenue decline, though it successfully returned to a modest segment profit of ¥20 million. Total assets decreased by ¥3,656 million during the period, settling at ¥50,976 million, yet the company maintains a robust financial foundation with a high equity ratio of 78.7%. The current strategic trajectory involves a pivot toward large-scale, 3D multi-device projects designed for global markets. This shift aims to stabilize the Games segment by moving beyond traditional mobile constraints while leveraging the momentum found in IP-driven solutions. While the immediate financial results reflect the costs of reorganization and the volatility of existing game lifecycles, the emphasis remains on long-term scalability and the diversification of revenue streams across the broader entertainment landscape.

Consolidated Financial Statements for the Second Quarter and First Half-Year Period of Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2026 (Japanese GAAP)
Akatsuki Inc. experienced a period of strategic transition during the first half of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025, characterized by a contraction in core gaming revenue alongside aggressive expansion into new business segments. Net sales declined 20.6% year-on-year to ¥9,915 million, while operating profit fell 42.4% to ¥1,724 million. This downturn was primarily driven by a reactionary decline in the performance of existing game titles. However, net income attributable to owners rose 31.4% to ¥1,853 million, bolstered by the successful launch of Kaiju No. 8 The Game and the growing contribution of the Entertainment and Lifestyle segment. The financial structure underwent significant shifts as the company expanded its consolidation scope to include six new entities, most notably CRAYON Inc., Natee, Inc., and PAPABUBBLE JAPAN HD, Inc. These acquisitions, totaling several billion yen, resulted in a provisional goodwill increase of ¥3,352 million and a rise in long-term borrowings to ¥6,763 million. To reflect this evolving business model, the company restructured its reporting segments, merging Games and Comics while elevating the Entertainment and Lifestyle division due to its increased materiality and growth potential. Despite the growth in net income and the expansion of the IP-driven lifestyle business, management has opted not to provide consolidated operating forecasts for the remainder of the fiscal year. This decision stems from high levels of uncertainty within the Games and Comic sectors, where market volatility makes precise projections difficult. The current strategy focuses on balancing the stabilization of the core gaming portfolio with the integration of newly acquired subsidiaries to diversify revenue streams beyond traditional digital entertainment.

FY2025 Third Quarter Consolidated Financial Results [Japanese GAAP]
CyberAgent demonstrated robust financial growth through the third quarter of the fiscal year ending September 2025, characterized by a 5.8% year-on-year increase in net sales to ¥631,993 million and a substantial 40.1% surge in operating income to ¥48,798 million. This performance was primarily propelled by a successful turnaround in the Media and IP segment, specifically ABEMA, alongside a 31.0% rise in Game Business operating income. The gaming division remains the primary profit driver, contributing ¥35,162 million in income, which offset a ¥3,514 million impairment loss resulting from declining profitability in specific legacy services. Improved payment efficiencies and the success of major titles further bolstered these results, leading to an upward revision of the full-year forecast to ¥850,000 million in net sales. The company’s financial position strengthened during this period, with total equity rising to ¥273,654 million and retained earnings growing to ¥138,698 million. Beyond immediate operational gains, there is a clear strategic focus on long-term expansion within the digital transformation and startup ecosystems. This is evidenced by the establishment of the CA Startups Internet Fund No. 4, a venture capital vehicle with a maximum investment of ¥5,000 million. Managed by CyberAgent Capital, this fund targets seed and early-stage startups both domestically and internationally. Due to the scale of this investment relative to the parent company’s capital stock, the fund is classified as a specified subsidiary, signaling a commitment to fostering innovation in the global digital sector as a core component of future growth.

Consolidated Financial Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 (under Japanese GAAP)
COLOPL, Inc. reported its consolidated financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, covering the period from October 1, 2025, to December 31, 2025. The data reveals a period of transition characterized by declining top-line revenue but significantly improved bottom-line profitability compared to the previous year. Net sales fell 10.2% year-on-year to 4,772 million yen, primarily due to lower revenue in the Entertainment Business as several existing smartphone titles saw extended distribution periods. Despite the revenue decline, the group narrowed its operating loss from 730 million yen in the prior year to 86 million yen. This improvement was driven by a group-wide cost review that successfully reduced advertising and selling expenses. Ordinary profit rose sharply by 752.4% to 484 million yen, bolstered by 442 million yen in foreign exchange gains. Profit attributable to owners of the parent increased 279.6% to 170 million yen, even after accounting for a 273 million yen extraordinary loss related to a career transition support program under its business restructuring initiative. The Entertainment Business remains the primary segment, generating 4,681 million yen in sales, with "DRAGON QUEST WALK" continuing to provide steady contributions. The Investment and Development Business reported 90 million yen in sales and narrowed its segment loss through the sale of operational investment securities. Geographically focused on Japan and IT-related investments, the company maintains a strong financial position with an equity ratio of 91.7% and total assets of 72,183 million yen. Due to the rapid volatility of the entertainment market, the company has opted not to disclose a consolidated financial forecast for the full fiscal year.
