Marvelous Consolidated Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2026

Marvelous Inc.’s consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, demonstrate a period of significant growth and operational recovery. The company reported net sales of 37,982 million yen, representing a 35.8% increase over the previous fiscal year. Operating profit rose by 23.7% to 2,248 million yen, while profit attributable to owners of the parent surged by 143.6% to 1,994 million yen. This performance was supported by a robust cash position, with cash and cash equivalents reaching 17,488 million yen at year-end, a substantial improvement from the 7,880 million yen reported in the prior year.

The company’s performance was driven by its multi-content, multi-use strategy across three primary segments. The Digital Content Business saw a 58.9% increase in net sales, bolstered by the global release of new console titles, though it recorded a segment loss due to the underperformance of specific software titles and one-time write-offs. The Amusement Business remained a core profit driver, with the Pokémon kids' amusement machine series achieving over 200 million plays and strong international expansion. The Audio and Visual Business also saw a significant turnaround, moving from a segment loss in the previous year to a profit of 910 million yen, aided by successful stage productions and stable secondary usage revenues from anime content.

Looking ahead to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027, the company forecasts net sales of 30,000 million yen. While this represents a projected decrease in top-line revenue due to a lighter release schedule for new console titles, the company anticipates an increase in operating profit to 3,000 million yen. This outlook is predicated on improved operational efficiency and the continued global scaling of its amusement and entertainment intellectual properties. The company continues to prepare its financial statements in accordance with Japanese GAAP while maintaining a neutral stance on the potential future adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards.
