Konami Group Corporation achieved record-high financial results for the nine-month period ending December 31, 2025, signaling robust momentum across its primary business operations. Total revenue reached ¥353,020 million, representing a 13.6% year-on-year increase, while operating profit climbed to ¥101,788 million. This growth was underpinned by strong performance in the Digital Entertainment segment, which remains the company’s largest revenue driver, contributing ¥266,175 million—a 16.3% increase compared to the previous year. The success of core titles, most notably eFootball, served as a primary catalyst for these gains across all major geographic regions.
The company’s broader portfolio experienced varied results, reflecting a complex operating environment. While the Digital Entertainment segment thrived, the Gaming & Systems division faced headwinds stemming from U.S. tariff pressures and delays in cabinet transitions. Conversely, the Sports segment demonstrated resilience and growth, bolstered by the strategic expansion of facilities and the diversification of service offerings, including the scaling of Pilates Mirror operations and outsourced sports management.
Based on these results, the company has upwardly revised its full-year earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, now projecting a 15.1% increase in profit attributable to owners of the parent. Future strategic priorities center on sustaining this growth through aggressive global expansion in the iGaming sector, the release of new mobile and console titles, and the continued optimization of the sports and fitness business. These initiatives reflect a commitment to leveraging core intellectual property while navigating macroeconomic challenges to maintain long-term profitability.
