KONAMI GROUP CORPORATION (the "Company") hereby announces the revision of its consolidated earnings forecast and dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, which was released on May 8, 2025 in its Consolidated Financial Results for the Year Ended March 31, 2025, in light of its recent business performance.

1.   Revision of the Consolidated Earnings Forecast for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2026

Reasons for the Revision

For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, total revenue, business profit, operating profit, profit before income taxes and profit attributable to owners of the parent are all progressing ahead of the initial forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026.

This is mainly attributable to the strong performance of core titles, including eFootball™, in the Digital Entertainment business, and the business results are expected to exceed the initial plan.

In light of these developments, the Company revised its consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 as set forth above.

2.   Revision of the Dividend Forecast for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2026

Reasons for the Revision

Since the Company believes that the provision of dividends and the enhancement of corporate value are important ways to return profits to its shareholders, the basic policy is to emphasize payment of dividends as a target for more than 30% in the consolidated payout ratio.

Based on this basic policy, once the Company had forecasted a year-end dividend would be 83.00 yen per share, it predicted profit attributable to owners of the parent would finish above its previous forecast as set forth above in the revision of its consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 and revised the year-end dividend forecast would be 107.50 yen per share. As a result, including the interim dividend of 83.00 yen per share, dividends on an annual basis will be 190.50 yen per share.
