KLab Inc. achieved record-high consolidated revenue of 32.67 billion yen in 2018, a 22.0% year-over-year increase driven by the success of BLEACH Brave Souls and Captain Tsubasa: Dream Team.
Profit attributable to owners fell 17.8% to 2.57 billion yen due to rising royalty payments, increased promotional spending, and a 958 million yen extraordinary loss from software impairment and asset disposal.
The company reported an operating profit of 4.99 billion yen, while net income per share declined from 84.89 yen to 69.03 yen.
KLab maintained a stable financial position with an equity ratio of 75.1% and total assets of 19.2 billion yen, though cash and cash equivalents decreased by 2.06 billion yen due to tax payments and investments in intangible assets.
The company elected not to issue a dividend for the 2018 fiscal year.
Revenue projections for 2019 are set between 32 billion and 40 billion yen, with performance heavily dependent on the successful launch and monetization of new titles.
