Operating Income Growth for the Full Year

– Raises full-year forecast based on current progress despite year-over-year dip in
sales and profit at Q2 end –

Capcom Co., Ltd. today announced that in its consolidated business results for the six months ended September 30, 2022, net sales were 49,067 million yen (down 29.9% year-over-year), operating income was 21,895 million yen (down 24.3% year-over-year), ordinary income was 22,996 million yen (down 22.6% year-over-year), and net income attributable to owners of the parent was 16,142 million yen (down 27.4% year-over-year).

At the end of the second quarter, Capcom’s core Digital Contents business delivered sales of 21.3 million units for its home video game software, marking a year-over-year increase. The company achieved this with the release of Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, the major new title in its flagship series, as well as through its ongoing pursuit of digital sales, including sales of catalog titles composed primarily of entries in major series, such as Monster Hunter Rise. While a new major title in the same period of the previous year created a comparative decline in sales and profit year-over-year, Capcom is on track to achieve its expected full-year earnings and will focus on the upcoming major title release in the second half of the year as well as on the continued promotion of catalog title sales.

Based on progress during the first half of the fiscal year, Capcom has raised its forecast for the consolidated business results for the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, that were initially announced on May 11, 2022.
