See it on page 27CyberAgent achieved record-high consolidated sales of 217.3 billion yen in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, representing a 1.2% year-on-year increase. This growth was primarily fueled by the Media and Internet Advertisement segments, which offset a 23.4% revenue decline in the Game business. Despite the year-on-year dip in gaming—attributed to a high-base comparison from a major release in the previous year—the segment demonstrated a significant 4.6x quarter-on-quarter profit recovery. Overall operating profit reached 20.8 billion yen, placing the company in a strong position to meet its annual targets, with current earnings already accounting for nearly 70% of the full-year forecast.
The strategic focus has shifted toward a high-profit business model that integrates Media and IP segments to create a global ecosystem for intellectual property production and monetization. To stabilize and grow the gaming division, the company is leveraging a pipeline of six upcoming titles, including high-profile projects like Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond, while expanding high-margin external payment methods. Furthermore, the aggressive implementation of artificial intelligence remains a core operational priority, evidenced by the launch of an internal AI agent platform designed to enhance advertising effectiveness and internal efficiency.
Corporate governance and long-term sustainability are addressed through the CyberAgent Way 2024 framework, which emphasizes succession planning and ESG initiatives. The company maintains a diverse and valuable portfolio of intellectual property, featuring major titles such as Umamusume: Pretty Derby and Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade. While the current financial trajectory remains positive, future performance remains subject to market volatility and the inherent risks of the competitive digital entertainment and advertising landscapes. This balanced approach between established media services and new technological integration defines the current fiscal strategy.
