Consolidated Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022

Mixi, Inc. reported consolidated financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, covering the period from April 1 to June 30, 2022. The data reveals a period of revenue growth alongside declining profitability. Net sales rose 8.7% year-over-year to ¥31,022 million, primarily driven by the Digital Entertainment segment and its flagship title, Monster Strike. However, operating income fell 7.6% to ¥5,557 million, and profit attributable to owners of the parent decreased 13.1% to ¥3,524 million. This contraction in earnings is attributed to increased cost of sales and higher selling, general, and administrative expenses. The company’s operations are divided into four reportable segments: Digital Entertainment, Sports, Lifestyle, and the newly established Investment Business. Digital Entertainment remains the primary profit driver, contributing ¥10,750 million in segment profit. In contrast, the Sports and Lifestyle segments reported losses of ¥653 million and ¥173 million, respectively. The Investment Business, elevated to a main line of business this quarter, contributed ¥179 million in profit. This structural change led to a reclassification of assets, with ¥14,400 million in investment securities moved to current assets as operational investment securities. Geographically focused on the Japanese market, the company maintains a strong financial position with total assets of ¥215,217 million and an equity ratio of 84.9%. Despite the quarterly decline in profit, Mixi maintained its full-year forecast, projecting net sales of ¥120,000 million and a significant 51.3% year-over-year drop in annual profit to ¥5,000 million. The company also confirmed a planned annual dividend of ¥110.00 per share and noted the issuance of new stock options to directors in July 2022.

Consolidated Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019

This financial report details the consolidated results for mixi, Inc. during the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2020, covering the period from April 1, 2019, to June 30, 2019. The data reveals a significant year-over-year downturn across all primary financial metrics. Net sales fell by 39.9% to ¥20,780 million, while operating income saw a sharp decline of 85.2%, dropping to ¥1,637 million. Profit attributable to owners of the parent followed a similar trajectory, decreasing 84.4% to ¥1,134 million. The downturn is primarily driven by the Entertainment Business segment, which saw sales contract from ¥32,709 million in the previous year's first quarter to ¥19,969 million. The Lifestyle Business also experienced a decline in revenue and recorded a segment loss of ¥272 million. Despite these operational challenges, the company maintains a robust financial position with total assets of ¥186,409 million and a high equity ratio of 93.8%. Cash and deposits remain substantial at ¥138,393 million, though this represents a decrease from the previous fiscal year-end. A key strategic development during this period was the 100% acquisition of SFIDANTE Inc. for ¥1,599 million. This move aims to integrate SFIDANTE’s smartphone-photo print services with mixi’s "FamilyAlbum" app to enhance family-oriented communication offerings. The acquisition resulted in the recognition of approximately ¥1,504 million in provisional goodwill. Looking ahead, the full-year forecast remains cautious, projecting net sales of ¥100,000 million and a profit of ¥3,000 million, representing anticipated annual declines of 30.6% and 88.7%, respectively. To align leadership interests with shareholder value during this transition, the company also authorized the granting of over 400,000 stock options to directors and corporate officers in July 2019.

This financial report details the consolidated results for mixi, Inc. during the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017, covering the period from April 1, 2016, to June 30, 2016. The data reflects a period of contraction compared to the previous year’s explosive growth.

Profit attributable to owners of the parent declined by 14.9% to ¥13,578 million. Despite these decreases, the company maintained a strong financial position with an equity ratio of 85.6%, up from 73.6% at the end of the previous fiscal year. The company’s operations are divided into two primary reportable segments: the Entertainment Business and the Media Platform Business. The Entertainment Business remains the dominant revenue driver, contributing ¥44,002 million in net sales, though its segment profit decreased from the prior year. The Media Platform Business saw a slight increase in net sales to ¥3,322 million, but its segment profit dropped significantly from ¥743 million to ¥304 million. Management attributed some of the profit decline to increased selling, general, and administrative expenses, which rose to ¥21,824 million. Strategic corporate actions during and immediately following the quarter focused on shareholder returns and capital efficiency. The company executed a significant repurchase of treasury shares, totaling approximately ¥10 billion by July 2016, and subsequently resolved to retire over 2.4 million shares to improve capital efficiency. Additionally, the board approved the issuance of share remuneration-type stock options for directors to align leadership interests with shareholder value.

Consolidated Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Mixi, Inc. reported consolidated financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022, covering the period from April 1, 2021, to June 30, 2021. The data reveals a year-on-year decline across primary financial metrics. Net sales reached ¥28,366 million, a 3.4% decrease from the previous year, while operating income fell 19.4% to ¥6,011 million. Profit attributable to owners of the parent dropped 17.7% to ¥4,054 million. Despite these declines, the company maintains a strong financial position with an equity ratio of 85.6% and total assets valued at ¥217,762 million. The Digital Entertainment Business remains the primary revenue driver, contributing ¥22,596 million in sales, largely through the flagship title Monster Strike. However, segment profit for this division decreased from ¥12,482 million to ¥10,586 million year-on-year. The Sports Business saw a significant revenue increase to ¥4,047 million but continued to operate at a loss of ¥681 million. The Lifestyle Business showed improvement, turning a profit of ¥159 million compared to a loss in the prior year. A significant accounting change occurred during this period with the adoption of the Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition. This impacted how revenue is recognized for Monster Strike, shifting from the point of in-game currency consumption to a recognition model based on the estimated period of character use. While this change led to a ¥667 million increase in beginning retained earnings, its impact on the current quarter's operating income was minimal. Looking ahead, the full-year forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022, remains unchanged, with net sales projected between ¥115,000 million and ¥120,000 million. This forecast anticipates a substantial year-on-year decrease in profitability, with operating income expected to fall between 34.6% and 47.7%. The company also confirmed a planned annual dividend of ¥110 per share.
