Results of Operations
Overview of Results of Operations during the Period
The CyberAgent Group is expanding its business around "ABEMA", a new TV of the future launched in 2016. Recently, the IP business centered on 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".
For the nine months ended June 30, 2026, the group's three core businesses-the Media & IP Business, Internet Advertisement Business, and Game Business-recorded higher revenue. As a result, net sales totaled ¥709,272 million (an increase of 12.2% year on year), operating income amounted to ¥67,449 million (an increase of 38.2% year on year), ordinary income amounted to ¥69,182 million (an increase of 42.3% year on year), and profit attributable to owners of the parent amounted to ¥36,035 million (an increase of 49.5% year on year).
Earnings by business segments are discussed below.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2026, net sales totaled ¥193,391 million (an increase of 37.8% year on year), driven mainly by the strong performance of flagship titles and the global success of casual games. Operating income amounted to ¥50,923 million (an increase of 44.8% year on year), resulting in significant increases in both sales and profit.

Overview of Financial Position during the Period
(Financial position)
As of June 30, 2026, total assets decreased by ¥5,989 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year and amounted to ¥551,172 million. It is mainly due to a decrease in cash and deposits resulting from payments of corporate taxes and dividends, among other factors.
Total liabilities decreased by ¥28,206 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year and amounted to
¥253,275 million. It is mainly due to a decrease in income tax payable resulting from income tax payment. Equity increased by ¥22,216 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year and amounted to ¥297,897 million. It is mainly due to an increase in retained earnings owing to the recording of net income attributable to owners of the parent.
