The briefing outlines GREE’s strategic outlook for the remainder of FY2021 and beyond, focusing on its core Game business, profitability trajectory, investment income sustainability, and short‑term financial expectations. GREE anticipates a medium‑to‑long‑term sales uptrend driven by the release of new game titles in FY2022 and subsequent years, while simultaneously strengthening operational capabilities for existing titles. Profitability is expected to broaden through the creation of more profitable business structures and favorable contractual terms, aligned with a strategy centered on Game engine development, intellectual property acquisition, and global expansion.
