The fiscal year ending March 2013 saw the company report consolidated net sales of 13.7 billion yen, a 6.3 % increase from the previous year’s 13.6 billion yen, driven largely by a 73.6 % rise in overseas sales to 2.9 billion yen versus 1.8 billion yen in FY2012. Domestic sales grew modestly by 8.2 % to 10.9 billion yen, while the overseas segment expanded from 1.8 billion to 2.9 billion yen, reflecting a strategic emphasis on international markets.

Operating profit rose from 1.2 billion yen to 1.3 billion yen, a 6.5 % year‑over‑year gain, while ordinary profit increased from 1.0 billion to 1.2 billion yen, a 4.0 % rise. Net income reached 13.7 billion yen, up 5.2 % from the prior year’s 13.6 billion yen, after accounting for a one‑time goodwill amortization of approximately 700 million yen following the Koei–Tecmo merger. The company’s expenses‑to‑sales ratio improved from 26.0 % to 23.8 %, indicating tighter cost control.

Segment analysis shows software and game sales as the largest contributors, with online and mobile gaming growing rapidly; social games were highlighted for high‑profitability projects such as “Hyakuman nin no Nobunaga no Yabou.” The company’s strategy for FY2013 focuses on expanding new platform titles, strengthening collaboration projects, and reducing costs to enhance profitability.
