1Q FY2022 Presentation Material: October to December 2021

CyberAgent demonstrated significant financial growth during the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, with consolidated sales reaching 171 billion yen and operating profit increasing nearly threefold to 19.8 billion yen. This performance was primarily catalyzed by the Game business, where sales nearly doubled to 58.3 billion yen. The massive success of Uma Musume Pretty Derby, which surpassed 12 million downloads, drove a 15.1-fold year-over-year increase in operating profit for the segment. Despite this momentum, the inherent volatility of the gaming market led to a cautious approach regarding full-year forecasts. The Media segment, led by the streaming platform ABEMA, achieved 24.9 billion yen in sales but reported an operating loss of 3.8 billion yen. This deficit reflects aggressive reinvestment into the online betting platform WINTICKET and content expansion, including the acquisition of Babel Label and integration with the Nintendo Switch. ABEMA continues to scale its reach, recording over 76 million downloads and 18 million weekly active users. Meanwhile, the Internet Advertisement business achieved record sales, supported by the launch of three new subsidiaries focused on digital transformation. The long-term strategic framework involves utilizing high-margin profits from the Advertising and Game segments to fund the evolution of Media into a primary growth pillar and essential social infrastructure. This vision is underpinned by a corporate purpose focused on overcoming economic stagnation through digital innovation and global expansion. Future growth in the gaming sector is anticipated through a robust pipeline of high-profile intellectual properties, including titles based on Final Fantasy VII and Jujutsu Kaisen, while broader corporate sustainability is managed through integrated ESG initiatives.

3Q FY2021 Presentation Material: April to June 2021

CyberAgent experienced exceptional financial growth during the third quarter of fiscal year 2021, covering the period from April to June. Consolidated sales reached 192.2 billion yen, representing a 70.3% year-over-year increase, while operating profit surged more than fivefold to 44.5 billion yen. This performance was primarily catalyzed by the Game business, specifically the massive commercial success of Uma Musume Pretty Derby. The title surpassed nine million downloads within five months of its launch, driving segment sales up by 151.7% and operating profit by over 480%. The success of this intellectual property has further expanded into a multi-media franchise encompassing anime, music, and live events, prompting an upward revision of full-year forecasts to 650 billion yen in sales and 100 billion yen in operating profit. The media segment, led by the streaming platform ABEMA, also demonstrated significant momentum with quarterly sales more than doubling to 10.5 billion yen. Weekly Active Users reached a peak of 14.9 million, supported by high-profile sports broadcasting and original content. A critical component of this segment's monetization strategy is the WINTICKET online betting service, which saw transaction volumes grow 5.5 times year-over-year to 39.3 billion yen through strategic integration with ABEMA’s programming. Beyond current hits, the strategic focus remains on technological innovation and pipeline development. The advertising business reported high adoption rates for AI-driven creative tools, while the gaming division is preparing for future growth with high-profile upcoming titles based on the Final Fantasy VII and Jujutsu Kaisen franchises. These results indicate a robust diversification strategy where high-performing gaming assets and integrated media services drive record-breaking financial outcomes across the Japanese market.

Quarterly Transition by Business Segment: Japan

The quarterly transition analysis focuses on Japan’s key business segments for fiscal years 2019 and 2020, presenting sales, operating profit (OP), and operating profit margin (OPM) figures in millions of yen. Media business sales rose from 46,575 million yen in FY2019 to 39,437 million yen in FY2020, reflecting a decline across all quarters. Game business sales increased from 152,224 million yen to 116,815 million yen, with the highest quarterly sales in Q2 of FY2020. Internet advertisement sales grew from 256,644 million yen to 204,419 million yen, driven by Q2 and Q3 gains. Investment development sales fell sharply from 6,428 million yen to 3,675 million yen, largely due to a significant drop in Q4 FY2020. Other business sales remained relatively stable, moving from 18,947 million yen to 14,367 million yen. Operating profit trends mirror sales movements. Media business OP declined from –13,288 million yen in FY2019 to –28,511 million yen in FY2020, with negative margins consistently between –33.7% and –40.9%. Game business OP improved, reaching 23,142 million yen in FY2019 and 28,511 million yen in FY2020, with margins rising from 19.8% to 20.7%. Internet advertisement OP grew from 17,130 million yen to 31,180 million yen, maintaining margins around 8.4%. Investment development OP fell from 2,931 million yen to a negative figure in Q4 FY2020, with an extreme margin swing from 79.8% to –231.6%. Other business OP increased modestly, with margins hovering near 9%. The analysis covers the entire Japanese market across all four quarters of FY2019 and FY2020, using internal financial data to calculate quarterly sales, OP, and OPM. Adjustments for incentive payments are excluded from the operating profit calculations to provide a clearer view of core profitability. The findings highlight sectoral shifts, with media and investment development segments underperforming while game and internet advertisement segments demonstrate resilience and growth.
