CyberAgent, Inc. reported first‑half FY2025 consolidated results under Japanese GAAP, showing a 3.4 % rise in net sales to ¥421,214 million and operating income up 9.7 % to ¥29,169 million. Ordinary income attributable to owners increased 8.0 % to ¥29,178 million, while net income attributable to the parent surged 74.2 % to ¥15,863 million, driven by a strong performance in the newly defined Media & IP Business and Internet Advertisement segments. The Media & IP segment recorded ¥112,721 million in sales (12.4 % YoY) and a shift from an operating loss to a profit of ¥4,729 million. Internet Advertisement sales rose 11.1 % to ¥235,356 million with operating income up 11.6 %. Game Business sales fell 20.1 % to ¥89,713 million, though operating income decreased only 13.9 %. Investment Development sales declined 28.6 % to ¥628 million, with an operating loss of ¥749 million. Total assets increased to ¥520,288 million, equity rose to ¥262,428 million, and the equity ratio improved to 31.3 %. Cash and cash equivalents fell by ¥10,734 million to ¥200,400 million, largely due to operating cash inflows offset by investing and financing outflows, including a ¥20,000 million redemption of convertible bonds. Net income for the full year is forecast at ¥820,000 million, up 2.3 % YoY, with operating income projected at ¥42,000 million (4.8 %) and ordinary income at ¥42,000 million (5.8 %). The company maintains its dividend policy with a forecast of ¥17 million per share for FY2025, unchanged from prior guidance.

The presentation outlines CyberAgent’s FY2024 performance, emphasizing record sales and operating profit growth across its three core businesses—Internet Advertising, Media (ABEMA), and Game. Consolidated sales reached ¥215.1 billion in Q2, up 10.0% YoY, while operating profit rose to ¥21.0 billion, a 12.2% increase and the first time surpassing ¥20 billion in eight quarters. Internet Advertising sales climbed 7.1% YoY to ¥107.3 billion, with operating profit up 19.6%. The Media segment achieved a new high of ¥42.0 billion in sales, up 25.8% YoY, and turned profitable for the first time since Q2 2023; operating profit increased 0.7 billion yen. Game sales grew 8.1% YoY to ¥67.1 billion, driven by the launch of “Granblue Fantasy: Relink,” which sold one million units within eleven days, and by anniversary events for major titles; operating profit surged 19.8% YoY. Financially, SG&A expenses increased modestly by 2.9%, while cash deposits and fixed assets grew significantly, reflecting investment in technology and talent. Net income attributable to shareholders rose 30.8% YoY to ¥10.3 billion, offset by a temporary extraordinary loss. The company’s strategy focuses on leveraging generative AI and large‑language models (CyberAgentLM) to enhance ad creative, expand ABEMA’s sports content through partnerships with DAZN and WOWSPO, and sustain game revenue by launching new titles such as “Granblue Fantasy Versus” and “Umamusume Pretty Derby.” The overarching goal is to increase sales and profits, with FY2023 operating profit as a low point, and to position CyberAgent as a global digital media and technology leader.
