Consolidated Sales: Second Quarter 2025-26

NACON reports a 4.5 % rise in consolidated sales for the second quarter of its 2025/26 fiscal year, reaching €46.8 million compared with €44.8 million in the same period last year. Total first‑half sales for April–September 2025 amount to €78.1 million, up 1.4 % from €77.0 million in the prior year. Gaming sales dominate growth, increasing by €8.8 million (31.7 %) to €36.7 million, driven largely by a 52.5 % jump in catalogue titles and a modest 7.8 % rise in back‑catalogue revenue. Catalogue releases such as *Rugby League 26*, *Robocop: Rogue City – Unfinished Business*, and *Hell is Us* contribute significantly, with the latter achieving an 88 % user score and over 1.5 million residual wish‑lists. Back‑catalogue sales reflect the strength of NACON’s existing portfolio. The accessories segment, however, contracts sharply by 42.7 % to €9.0 million, largely due to a 66 % decline in U.S. sales caused by higher customs duties. European accessory sales, particularly for Switch 2 and XBOX Revolution X Unlimited controllers, are expected to provide some recovery. NACON anticipates continued catalogue momentum in the second half of the year, with nearly a dozen new titles slated for release, while back‑catalogue activity should remain steady. The company maintains confidence in meeting its 2025/26 annual targets, citing a robust release schedule and new accessory products. The next financial update for the first half of 2025/26 will be issued on November 24, 2025.

The presentation outlines PCF Group S.A.’s financial performance for the first half of 2025, focusing on revenue trends, profit calculations, and portfolio developments across its global operations. Revenues have shown a gradual decline from 2021 to 2024, with cumulative figures falling from PLN 190.4 m in 2021 to PLN 171.5 m by the end of 2024, and quarterly revenue in Q1‑2025 recorded at PLN 58.5 m. EBITDA has been negatively impacted by lower sales on the Gemini project and a delayed Bulletstorm VR launch, resulting in an adjusted EBITDA loss of PLN 11.3 m for 2024 and a projected loss of PLN 33.3 m in 2025 after accounting for new projects such as Echo and Delta, as well as write‑downs related to the PCF Chicago subsidiary. The group’s workforce is distributed across two continents, with 534 employees in Warsaw and additional teams in Montreal, Newcastle, Dublin, Katowice, and Rzeszów. Back‑office development is handled by Incuvo Studio Europe and North America, while publishing responsibilities are shared with the QA Gameon division. Portfolio highlights include the upcoming co‑op release of Green Hell on Meta Quest platforms and a VR shoot‑to‑survive title slated for Q4 2025. The presentation emphasizes that these releases are the last VR titles to be published by PCF Group, signalling a strategic shift. Overall, the data suggest a contraction in revenue and profitability driven by project delays and market adjustments, with future performance hinging on the successful launch of new VR titles and cost management initiatives.

Results Briefing Materials: Fiscal Year Ending March 2026, First Half

The briefing presents the first‑half financial performance of Marvelous Inc. for the fiscal year ending March 2026, covering April–September 2025. Net sales surged 157.5 % to ¥20,281 million, driven by the launch of three core video‑game titles—“Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma,” “STORY OF SEASONS: Grand Bazaar,” and “DAEMON X MACHINA TITANIC SCION”—and robust sales of Pokémon‑branded amusement machines. Segment analysis shows Digital Contents Business revenue rising 198.7 % to ¥12,414 million, while Amusement Business increased 136.3 % to ¥5,982 million; Audio & Visual Business declined 84.0 %. Operating profit fell 38.2 % to ¥226 million due to elevated development costs, yet ordinary and net income rose 102.0 % and 234.7 %, respectively, largely from a shift to foreign‑exchange gains. The company forecasts full‑year net sales of ¥35,000 million (125.2 % of FY2025), operating profit of ¥2,000 million (110.0 % increase), and a dividend uplift to ¥12 million per share, maintaining the initial earnings outlook. Cash flow improved markedly: operating cash inflows rose from a negative ¥786 million to ¥5,822 million, and net cash increased by ¥5,274 million to ¥12,386 million. Asset growth was modest, with total assets rising by ¥1,424 million and net assets slightly declining due to higher liabilities. Methodologically, figures derive from consolidated financial statements for the semi‑annual period; no survey data are cited. The report covers Japan, North America, Europe, and Asia for game sales, and includes detailed segment‑level performance. The outlook remains unchanged, with emphasis on sustaining momentum from the newly released titles and existing online properties.

NACON reported consolidated sales of €52.9 million for the third quarter of its 2024/25 financial year, a decline of 10.3 % from the €59.0 million recorded in the same period last year. Gaming sales fell 23.7 % to €25.4 million, driven by a sharp drop in new‑catalogue releases; catalogue sales dropped 52.9 % to €9.8 million after only one new title, MXGP: The Official Motocross Videogame™. Back‑catalogue sales rebounded 24.5 % to €15.6 million, supporting the company’s strategy of leveraging legacy titles. Accessories sales grew modestly 5.3 % to €25.2 million, buoyed by strong performance of RIG headsets and REVOLUTION 5 PRO controllers in the U.S. and Australia, despite delays of several new accessories slated for 2025. IFRS sales for the first nine months rose 2.5 % to €129.9 million, with gaming down 4.6 % and accessories up 11.1 %. NACON announced a new production plant for gaming accessories in Lauwin‑Planque, France, expected to improve supply chain control and inventory optimisation. The company projects a slight sales increase in the fourth quarter, though operating income may decline due to postponed releases. For 2025/26 first half, NACON anticipates strong growth from new gaming titles, continued back‑catalogue momentum, a busy release schedule, and the launch of Nintendo Switch™ 2 compatible products.

Sales for the 2024/25 Financial Year: Nacon

Nacon reported consolidated sales of €167.9 million for the 2024/25 financial year, essentially flat against the €167.7 million recorded in 2023/24. Quarterly performance varied, with a sharp decline in the first quarter (‑9 %) offset by a 38.5 % rise in the second quarter, followed by declines of 10.3 % and 7.1 % in the third and fourth quarters respectively. Gaming revenue fell by 3.8 % to €97.1 million, while accessories grew modestly by 4.1 % to €65.2 million; the “Other” segment, comprising mobile and audio sales, expanded 38 % to €5.6 million. The fourth‑quarter gaming output was limited to two titles, Rugby25™ and Ambulance Life™, resulting in a 35.8 % drop in new‑game catalogue sales to €9.9 million, compared with four releases and the hit Robocop: Rogue City™ in 2023/24. Back‑catalogue sales, however, surged 46.5 % to €16.1 million in the quarter and 31.2 % for the year, underscoring sustained demand for legacy titles. Accessories sales were constrained by postponed launches of the REVOSIM range and the Xbox Revolution X Unlimited controller, which will debut in 2025/26. Nacon anticipates a sharper growth trajectory for the next fiscal year, driven by an expanded release calendar of over ten new games across sports, racing, adventure and simulation genres, as well as the launch of high‑profile accessories in the first half of 2025/26. Production expansion at a new French controller plant and continued reliance on Vietnamese manufacturing for U.S. inventory are expected to support this outlook.

Nacon reported first‑quarter sales of €33.7 million for the period 1 April to 30 June 2021, a decline of 11.3 % versus the same quarter in 2020‑21. The drop reflects an unfavorable comparison basis, yet back‑catalogue performance remained resilient with €9.2 million in sales compared to €10.8 million during the initial lockdown, and a substantial 340 % lift in back‑catalogue revenue that quarter. Game sales fell 16 % to €12.2 million, while accessories declined 8.8 % to €20.6 million; the accessories segment benefited from a 19 % rise in non‑RIG helmet ranges, notably PlayStation 4 and Xbox® controllers.
