Management Principles
Top Message

I would like to thank all of our shareholders for their continued support.

During the 16th fiscal year, the final year of the Third Medium-Term Management Plan, we set "Creating and Developing Global IP" as the Group's management policy and implemented a number of measures to support that goal. We released nine packaged game titles, and our online and mobile games were primarily comprised of existing in-house and licensed titles. We increased the number of new titles published in-house, and grew download sales of back catalog and other content. Additionally, our operating profits exceeded those of the previous fiscal year due to cost reductions in operating titles. Furthermore, by remaining flexible while closely monitoring financial markets, we achieved record highs in our non-operating income, ordinary income, and net income attributable to parent company shareholders. As a result, the Group's business results for the fiscal year under review were net sales of 83,150 million yen (down 1.7% from the previous FY), operating income of 32,119 million yen (up 12.7% from the previous FY), ordinary income of 49,988 million yen (up 9.3% from the previous FY), and net income attributable to parent company shareholders of 37,628 million yen (up 11.4% from the previous fiscal year).

The three-year Fourth Medium-Term Management Plan, which begins in FY2025, aims to make long-term leaps forward globally, with the theme of "Building a Foundation for Growth." We will establish a new position of President & CEO as the person with the highest authority over business execution for the Group, and will also review the composition of our Board of Directors to further separate management oversight and execution. In the medium-to-long-term, our goal is to become one of the top 10 global digital entertainment companies in operating profit*.

Guided by the Koei Tecmo spirit of "Creation and Contribution - Creating new value and contributing to society," our group will continue to take on challenges to realize our vision of becoming "the world's number one digital entertainment company."

We ask for the continued support and cooperation of all our shareholders.
