Q4 2022-23 Sales and Annual Sales: FY 2022-23

NACON reported consolidated sales for the fiscal year 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023, with total revenue of €156.4 million, a marginal increase of 0.3 % over the prior year. Quarterly performance showed a strong rebound in Q4, where sales rose 19.1 % to €37.7 million after a 19.6 % decline in Q3. The Games segment dominated the growth, increasing by 67.0 % to €90.9 million for the full year; new‑catalogue sales surged 93.0 % to €24.9 million, driven by releases such as Chef Life and Transport Fever 2 Console Edition. Back‑catalogue sales also expanded, reaching an all‑time high of €11.2 million in Q4 and growing 61.2 % year‑over‑year. Accessories revenue fell 36.6 % to €61.2 million, largely due to a global console shortage that dampened demand for new‑generation hardware; however, the decline slowed in Q4, suggesting a potential rebound. Other categories, including mobile and audio sales, contracted 13.1 % to €4.3 million.

The company anticipates a decline in operating income before IFRS2 for FY 2023‑24 but expects overall operating and net income to rise. Management projects a robust publishing pipeline with roughly twenty titles slated for release, including high‑profile games such as The Lord of the Rings: Gollum and RoboCop: Rogue City. The back‑catalogue is expected to continue benefiting from the mechanical effect of new releases, while accessories sales should recover as console supply normalizes and new product offerings expand. NACON’s outlook remains positive, underscoring confidence in continued growth across its video‑game and accessories businesses.
