FY2025 Consolidated Financial Results [Japanese GAAP]
CyberAgent achieved a significant financial recovery during the 2025 fiscal year, characterized by a 9.1% increase in net sales to ¥874,030 million and a 78.9% surge in operating income to ¥71,702 million. This performance was underpinned by the Media & IP segment returning to profitability for the first time in a decade, generating ¥7.29 billion in operating income. The Game Business served as the primary engine for growth, with its operating income nearly doubling to ¥60.06 billion. This success in the gaming sector was attributed to aggressive overseas expansion and the adoption of high-margin external payment methods, which more than offset a ¥727 million extraordinary loss related to a patent infringement settlement between subsidiary Cygames and Konami Digital Entertainment. The company’s financial position strengthened considerably over the period, with net income attributable to the parent doubling to ¥31.67 billion and cash flows from operating activities rising to ¥79,518 million. Strategic capital management included a ¥20,000 million redemption of convertible bonds and the acquisition of subsidiary shares. To better leverage synergies surrounding the ABEMA platform, the corporate structure was reorganized to integrate secondary operations into the newly designated Media & IP Business segment. Looking toward the 2026 fiscal year, the outlook remains cautious despite the recent momentum. While consolidated net sales are projected to grow modestly to ¥880,000 million, operating income is expected to contract to a range between ¥50,000 and ¥60,000 million. This forecast suggests a period of reinvestment or market stabilization following the exceptional gains realized in the gaming and media sectors during the previous year. The results reflect a consolidated Japanese market focus with increasing international contributions from the gaming portfolio.

Partial Correction to FY2025 First Quarter Consolidated Financial Results [Japanese GAAP]
CyberAgent, Inc. issued this formal correction to its consolidated financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, covering the period from October 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024. The primary purpose of the disclosure is to provide revised numerical data and financial statements following the submission of correction reports for past annual securities reports. The scope of the report encompasses the company’s primary business segments in Japan, including Media and IP, Internet Advertisement, Gaming, and Investment Development. The revised data shows that CyberAgent achieved net sales of ¥203.8 billion, a 5.8% increase year-on-year. Operating income rose significantly by 41.6% to ¥8.3 billion, while ordinary income grew 45.4% to ¥8.8 billion. Net income attributable to owners of the parent reached ¥5.07 billion, a notable recovery from the ¥892 million loss recorded in the same period the previous year. Performance varied by segment: the Internet Advertisement Business remained the largest contributor with ¥117.8 billion in sales, while the Media and IP Business turned profitable due to loss reductions at ABEMA. Conversely, the Game Business saw a 15.1% decline in sales to ¥38.2 billion, attributed to the slowdown of existing titles and a ¥1.27 billion impairment loss. Methodologically, the financial results were prepared in accordance with Japanese GAAP. A significant structural change was noted in the reporting methodology, as the company integrated its "Other Businesses" into the newly renamed "Media and IP Business" to better align with its multimedia franchise strategy. Despite the internal corrections to historical data, the company maintained its full-year forecast for fiscal year 2025, projecting net sales of ¥820 billion and operating income of ¥42 billion.

FY2026 First Quarter Consolidated Financial Results [Japanese GAAP]
CyberAgent’s consolidated financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, covering the period from October 1, 2025, to December 31, 2025, demonstrate significant growth in revenue and profitability. Net sales rose 14.0% year-on-year to ¥232.3 billion, while operating income surged 181.8% to ¥23.3 billion. This performance was primarily driven by record-high results in the Media & IP and Game segments. Notably, the subsidiary AbemaTV Inc. achieved its first quarterly operating profit since its 2015 inception, contributing to a 246.1% increase in Media & IP segment income. The Game Business served as a major growth engine, with net sales increasing 69.2% to ¥64.7 billion and operating income rising 427.2% to ¥17.6 billion, fueled by strong existing titles and international expansion. Conversely, the Internet Advertisement Business saw a 2.7% decline in sales and a 27.2% drop in operating income following the loss of a major client. The Investment Development Business also underperformed, reporting an operating loss of ¥552 million. Geographically focused on the Japanese market with expanding global IP interests, the report utilizes Japanese GAAP to detail the company's financial position. Total assets decreased to ¥524.6 billion, largely due to tax and dividend payments. Despite the strong first-quarter start, the full-year forecast remains unchanged, projecting net sales of ¥880 billion. The outlook suggests a potential year-on-year decline in annual operating income, ranging from 16.3% to 30.3%, as the company balances proactive content investment with fluctuating segment performances.

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.
