In the Digital Entertainment segment, the HD (High-Definition) Game sub-segment's net sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 rose compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year due to the release of titles including "FINAL FANTASY XVI" and "FINAL FANTASY PIXEL REMASTER."
In the MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) Games sub-segment, net sales fell versus the same period of the previous fiscal year.
In the Games for Smart Devices/PC Browser sub-segment, "DRAGON QUEST CHAMPIONS" was launched in June, but the sub-segment's net sales declined compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year because of weak performances from existing titles.
In the Amusement segment, net sales and operating income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 rose compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year due to a year-on- year increase in same-store sales.
In the Publication segment, net sales and operating income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 declined compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year due to year-on- year declines in both digital and print sales.
In the Merchandising segment, net sales and operating income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 rose compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year due in part to brisk sales of new merchandise featuring key characters from the Group's IP portfolio.
