Koei Tecmo is already having a heck of a year thanks to self-published releases like Nioh 3 and its collaboration with Nintendo and Game Freak on Pokemon Pokopia. The company's expecting record results in its upcoming financial report, but that's only partially because of the games. The real winner here is co-founder Keiko Erikawa's legendary investment strategy.
In a notice to investors, Koei Tecmo says it's revising its forecast for the financial year, which runs from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2026. Full results should be provided soon, but compared to the previous forecast, the company's expecting a 16.1% increase in operating profit, a 50% increase in ordinary profit, and a 53.7% increase in "profit attributable to owners of parent."
