Results of Operations
Overview of Results of Operations
The CyberAgent Group is expanding its business around "ABEMA", a new TV of the future, which was launched in 2016. Recently, the IP business with a multimedia franchise strategy has been growing rapidly in Japan and worldwide. For this reason, the group is also working to strengthen its IP business which has a high affinity with "ABEMA". During this consolidated fiscal year, the Media & IP business maintained a high growth rate, the Game business delivered several major hit titles, and the Internet Advertisement business captured the growth of the internet advertising market.
As a result, net sales grew 9.1% year-on-year to ¥874,030 million, marking the 28th consecutive period of revenue growth since the company's founding. Operating income amounted to ¥71,702 million (a 78.9% increase), driven by the Media & IP business returning to profitability for the first time in 10 years and the highly profitable game business achieving a significant increase in profits. Ordinary income amounted to ¥71,743 million (an 80.6% increase), and net income attributable to the owners of the parent increased 98.2% to ¥31,667 million.
Earnings by business segments are discussed below.

Despite losing some major clients during the second half, Internet Advertisement Business sustained ¥461,220 million of net sales, up 6.1% year-on-year. Due to investing in new business using AI. etc, operating income amounted to ¥17,602 million, a 14.0% year-on-year decrease.

Thanks to several major new hit games and the success of overseas expansion, net sales amounted to ¥216,710 million, a 10.6% year-on-year increase. The transition to an external payment method has had a positive effect, resulting in operating income amounted to ¥60,063 million, a 96.5% year-on-year increase.

The Investment Development Business recorded net sales of ¥1,663 million (73.8% year-on-year decrease) and operating loss of ¥1,515 million, compared to operating income of ¥426 million for the same period in the prior fiscal year.
Overview of Financial Position
Total assets at the end of this fiscal year have increased by ¥ 40,475 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year and amounted to ¥557,162 million. It is mainly due to the increase in cash and deposits in line with sales increase. Total liabilities have increased by ¥15,299 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year and amounted to
¥281,481 million. It is mainly due to the increase in income tax payable in line with sales increase.
Total Equity have increased by ¥25,176 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year and amounted to
¥275,681 million. It is mainly due to the increase in retained earnings owing to the recording of net income attributable to owners of the parent.
Overview of Cash Flow
As of the end of this fiscal year, Cash and cash equivalents increased by ¥15,016 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥226,151 million.
The following is a summary of the major factor affecting the cash flow in this fiscal year.
Cash flows from operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was ¥79,518 million of inflow (¥53,231 million of inflow in the previous fiscal year). The major inflow included net income gains, and the major outflow included income tax payments.

Forecast
With respect to earnings forecasts for the next fiscal year (ending September 2026), due to increased revenue in Internet Advertisement Business and Media & IP Business, consolidated sales are expected to be ¥880 billion (up 0.7% from the previous fiscal year). Considering the characteristics of the Game Business which have a significant volatility in performance inherent, Consolidated operating income is expected to be in the range of ¥50~60 billion. And, consolidated ordinary income is expected to be in the range of ¥50~60 billion and Net income attribute to owners of the parent is expected to be in the range of ¥25~30 billion.
Also, the Company recognizes that the return of profits to shareholders is an important management priority and intends to continue to pay dividends along with increasing the value of our shares over a medium to long-term through business growth and improving capital efficiency.
The year-end dividend forecast of the fiscal year 2026 is ¥19 to achieve the DOE of 5% or more, established for the fiscal year ending September 2017.
We will submit this matter to the 29th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders to be held in December 2026.
The forecast is based on our expectations and assumptions as of the date the forecast was made. Our actual results could differ from those listed in this forecast because of various factors.
Basic Policy for the Selection of Accounting Standards
