Financial Result of FY ended March 2020
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 net sales were 81,591 million yen (down 18.4% from the previous fiscal year), the decrease due in part to the change from physical package sales to digital sales. In terms of profitability, profit improved at all levels due to the contribution of the hit title Monster Hunter World: Iceborne, primarily sold digitally, as well as to an increase in the percentage of highly profitable digital sales within catalog title sales.
Specifically, operating income was 22,827 million yen (up 25.8% from the previous fiscal year), ordinary income was 22,957 million yen (up 26.2% from the previous fiscal year), and net income attributable to the owners of the parent was 15,949 million yen (up 27.1% from the previous fiscal year).
As such, operating profit increased for the seventh consecutive year, and we achieved our third consecutive year of record-high profit at all levels in company history.
