Meanwhile, first-quarter sales for the fiscal year ending March 2027 were 95 billion yen (up 17.3% year-on-year), but operating profit was 2.3 billion yen, only 5% of the full-year forecast of 44.5 billion yen. The company explains that the slow progress is within expectations, as the launch of major new titles is concentrated in the second half. However, attention is needed as this second-half concentration continues for a second consecutive period, making the start of the third quarter a key focus.
