Q&A for 1Q FY2026 Operating Results Briefing

The first-quarter financial results for the fiscal year ending in 2026 reflect a strategic transition period for COLOPL, characterized by a lack of new releases and a focus on stabilizing existing mobile operations. Despite an anticipated decline in sales, the performance of established titles like Dragon Quest Walk and Alice Gear Aegis, alongside contributions from group companies, resulted in what leadership describes as solid progress. The company is currently navigating a challenging mobile market where the barrier to entry for new hits is rising, prompting a shift toward two primary development pillars: AI-powered titles and location-based games paired with globally recognized intellectual properties. Financial performance in the first quarter was impacted by extraordinary losses related to special severance payments from a Career Transition Support Program. While headcount has decreased, the resulting reduction in personnel expenses is not expected to materialize until the second quarter of 2026. Regarding long-term operations for legacy titles such as Shironeko Project, the strategy emphasizes user satisfaction and game-balance adjustments over aggressive cost-cutting to ensure longevity. The company is also diversifying its platform strategy beyond its core mobile business to include PC and console gaming. This is exemplified by the release of Kazuma Kaneko’s Tsukuyomi on Nintendo Switch, a title that originated as an exploration of generative AI in gaming. By establishing a new genre termed "Generative Games," the company aims to leverage AI-generated assets and systems across multiple hardware formats. Moving forward, the overarching goal remains achieving a "Global Top 20" position by integrating advanced technology with high-profile IPs and expanding the reach of its proprietary location-based gaming expertise.

Bushiroad Issues Financial Report for First Two Quarters of Fiscal 2026

Bushiroad Inc. experienced significant financial growth during the first half of fiscal year 2026, covering the period from July 1, 2025, to December 31, 2025. Net sales reached 27,839 million yen, representing an 8.2% increase compared to the same period in the previous year. This growth in revenue was accompanied by a substantial surge in profitability across all primary metrics. Operating profit rose by 68.5% to 2,908 million yen, while ordinary profit climbed 81.8% to 3,488 million yen. Most notably, profit attributable to owners of the parent more than doubled, increasing by 107.4% to reach 2,577 million yen. The financial position of the company remains stable, with total assets increasing to 50,742 million yen and net assets rising to 28,150 million yen. The equity-to-asset ratio improved from 47.7% at the end of fiscal 2025 to 52.2% by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2026. Per-share data reflects a two-for-one share split executed on October 1, 2025; adjusting for this split, profit per share for the first two quarters stood at 19.00 yen, compared to 9.01 yen in the prior year. Despite the strong performance in the first half of the year, the full-year forecast for fiscal 2026 suggests a more conservative outlook for the remaining periods. The year-end targets include net sales of 56,000 million yen and an operating profit of 4,500 million yen, which would represent slight year-over-year declines of 0.3% and 7.6%, respectively. This indicates an expectation of a significant deceleration in the second half of the fiscal year. The company plans an annual dividend of 2.50 yen per share, following the adjustments necessitated by the recent stock split.

Q3 for the Fiscal Year Ending March 2026 Results Presentation

Sega Sammy’s performance through the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2026 is characterized by a significant divergence between robust domestic gaming machine operations and substantial financial setbacks in the global consumer and mobile segments. While the Pachislot and Pachinko division exceeded expectations—driven by high-volume unit sales of titles like Smart Pachislot Tokyo Revengers—the broader group faces a projected net loss of 13.0 billion yen for the fiscal year. This downturn is primarily the result of 46.3 billion yen in extraordinary impairment losses related to the acquisitions of Rovio and Stakelogic, the latter of which was impacted by regulatory shifts in the Netherlands. The Entertainment Contents Business struggled with underperforming new full game launches and a deteriorating user acquisition environment for mobile titles, most notably Sonic Rumble. Consequently, management has pivoted from aggressive expansion to a period of consolidation, suspending large-scale M&A activities in favor of a 20.0 billion yen share buyback program. To restore profitability within the mobile sector, the strategy now emphasizes a "regrowth phase" for Rovio, leveraging AI-driven marketing efficiencies and a transmedia approach that includes major theatrical releases for the Angry Birds and Sonic franchises scheduled through 2027. Despite current headwinds, the medium-term outlook relies on a robust multi-platform pipeline and the expansion of the Gaming Business, which includes record-high performance at Paradise SegaSammy fueled by Japanese VIP demand. Upcoming releases for the Nintendo Switch 2 and the continued rollout of high-profile intellectual properties like Yakuza and Persona are intended to stabilize the consumer area. Geographically, the company remains focused on global markets while maintaining strict compliance with international gaming regulations in jurisdictions such as Nevada, which govern both corporate operations and shareholder requirements.

Results Briefing Materials: Fiscal Year Ending March 2026, Third Quarter

Marvelous Inc. reports a significant increase in financial performance for the first nine months of the fiscal year ending March 2026. Net sales reached 29,121 million yen, a 40.5% year-on-year increase, while ordinary profit grew 28.6% to 2,129 million yen. This growth was primarily driven by the Digital Contents and Amusement segments, alongside foreign exchange gains that bolstered the bottom line. The Digital Contents business saw revenue jump 69.2% following the successful launches of core titles including Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, STORY OF SEASONS: Grand Bazaar, and DAEMON X MACHINA TITANIC SCION. While high development costs for these new titles initially pressured margins, strong sales contributed to earnings ahead of schedule, significantly reducing cumulative operating losses in the segment. In the online space, the company launched Browser Sangokushi Ten, though it noted a slow initial start. The Amusement business remained a consistent profit driver, with revenue increasing 25.1% due to the continued popularity of Pokémon kids’ amusement machines, such as Pokémon FRIENDA and the overseas expansion of Pokémon MEZASTAR. Conversely, the Audio & Visual business experienced a revenue decline of 11.3% following the liquidation of unprofitable businesses, though segment profit rose sharply by 306.1% due to high-performing stage productions and secondary usage revenue from anime titles. Geographically, the company is focused on the Japanese, North American, European, and Asian markets across Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PC platforms. Despite exceeding year-to-date targets for certain profit metrics, the full-year forecast remains unchanged at 35,000 million yen in net sales and 2,000 million yen in operating profit, citing potential future uncertainties in the macroeconomic and industry environment.

Fiscal Year Ending March 2026: Second Quarter Interim Financial Results (Japanese Standards) (Consolidated)

Nippon Ichi Software reported a significant downturn in its consolidated financial results for the first half of the fiscal year ending March 2026, covering the period from April 1, 2024, to September 30, 2024. Net sales fell by 49.2% year-over-year to 1.24 billion yen. The company recorded an operating loss of 322 million yen and a net loss attributable to owners of the parent of 224 million yen, deepening the losses compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year. The entertainment segment, which constitutes the core of the business, saw sales drop by 50.6% to 1.18 billion yen, resulting in a segment loss of 95 million yen. This decline occurred despite the release of titles such as Fuuraiki 5 and Renju, alongside ongoing localization and global distribution efforts on platforms like PlayStation Network, Nintendo eShop, and Steam. The company also operates a smaller student dormitory business in Gifu Prefecture, which saw a 25.1% increase in sales but remained unprofitable with an 8 million yen operating loss. The financial position remains stable with a 67.2% equity ratio and total assets of 11.2 billion yen. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by 1.54 billion yen during the period, primarily due to significant outflows for time deposits and investments in tangible fixed assets. Despite the weak interim performance, the company maintained its full-year forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, projecting 4.77 billion yen in sales and a return to profitability with 31 million yen in net income. The dividend forecast remains unchanged at 5 yen per share.

Results Briefing Materials: Fiscal Year Ending March 2026, First Half (Semi-annual Period)

Marvelous Inc. reported a significant revenue increase for the first half of the fiscal year ending March 2026, covering the period from April to September 2025. Net sales rose 157.5% year-on-year to 20,281 million yen, primarily driven by the launch of three core video games and robust performance in the amusement sector. Despite the revenue surge, operating profit fell 61.8% to 226 million yen due to high development costs for new titles. However, ordinary profit and net income saw modest gains, aided by a shift from foreign exchange losses to gains. The Digital Contents business experienced nearly doubled sales, reaching 12,414 million yen. Key performers included Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma and Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar, both of which surpassed half a million units sold and contributed to profits ahead of schedule. Conversely, the segment recorded a loss of 1,070 million yen, and sales for Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion were characterized as sluggish. The Amusement business remained a strong profit driver, growing 36.3% in revenue and 41.2% in segment profit, fueled by the domestic and international success of Pokémon-themed kids' amusement machines like Pokémon Frienda and Pokémon Mezastar. The Audio & Visual business saw a revenue decline of 16% following the liquidation of unprofitable units, yet segment profit nearly tripled to 483 million yen due to high-performing stage productions and secondary usage of past anime titles. Looking ahead, the company maintained its full-year forecast of 35,000 million yen in net sales and 2,000 million yen in operating profit. Management plans to focus on the continued expansion of its core first-half releases and upcoming titles like The Thousand Musketeers: Rhodoknight for the Nintendo Switch.
