Consolidated Financial Results: Six Months Ended September 30, 2023

Konami Group achieved record-high financial performance for the six-month period ending September 30, 2023, characterized by broad-based growth across all primary business segments. Total revenue reached ¥153,851 million, representing a 3.7% year-on-year increase, while business profit surged by 38.3% to ¥35,414 million. This expansion in profitability was supported by improved margins within the Digital Entertainment division and consistent performance across the Amusement, Gaming & Systems, and Sports sectors. The company also demonstrated enhanced operational efficiency, evidenced by net cash provided by operating activities totaling ¥43,120 million and a notable rise in operating profit to ¥35,443 million.

The Sports segment emerged as a significant contributor to this upward trajectory, generating ¥23,799 million in revenue—a 6.0% increase—and achieving a substantial 219.4% rise in business profit to ¥1,600 million. Strategic initiatives, such as the expansion of Pilates Mirror studios and the scaling of school-based swimming instruction, have effectively bolstered this segment. These results underscore a successful diversification strategy that balances traditional digital entertainment offerings with physical fitness and gaming hardware infrastructure.

Given these robust results, management remains confident in the company’s trajectory for the remainder of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024. The full-year earnings forecast is maintained at ¥328,000 million in total revenue and ¥63,000 million in business profit. Future growth is expected to be sustained by a strong pipeline of digital entertainment titles and continued investment in gaming hardware, positioning the organization to meet its annual financial objectives while maintaining its current momentum across all global business operations.
