Management comments from Yoichi Wada, President and Representative Director:
"Our Group experienced significantly lower sales and profit during the fiscal year mainly due to weak performance of console game titles released during the year as well as the impact of a continued delay in billing for a key online title, which was newly launched during the year.
"Further, under a rapidly changing operating environment and more prudent estimates of future cash flows, the Company wrote down goodwill (approximately 8.8 billion yen). Project development cancellation and related losses (approximately 4.5 billion yen) as well as losses caused by natural disaster (approximately 0.6 billion yen) were also factors in the recording of total extraordinary losses of 16.0 billion yen.
"In the fiscal year ending March 31, 2012, we are very focused on the Group's key strategic initiatives of globalization, becoming 'network centric', and strengthening our own-IPs as we work to generate a substantial earnings recovery from the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013 and beyond."
