Capcom On Track to Achieve Full-Year Guidance
Following Consolidated Results for the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2022

– Successful digital pricing drives game sales volume up from
25.8 million units to 29.1 million units year-over-year –

Capcom Co., Ltd. today announced that in its consolidated business results for the nine months ended December 31, 2022, net sales were 79,671 million yen (down 9.6% year-over-year), operating income was 33,332 million yen (down 5.0% year-over-year), ordinary income was 33,564 million yen (down 7.1% year-over-year), and net income attributable to owners of the parent was 23,610 million yen (down 11.6% year-over-year).

At the end of the nine months ended December 31, 2022, Capcom’s core Digital Contents business delivered sales of 29.1 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 fourth quarter of the fiscal year as well as on the continued promotion of catalog title sales.

The forecast for the consolidated business results for the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, remains the same as what was announced on October 26, 2022.
