Happinet raises Q2 profit and sales forecasts on strong toy, game sales

Happinet Corporation has revised its consolidated financial results forecasts for the second quarter (six months) ending September 30, 2025. Net sales are now projected to reach 194,000 million yen, a 7.8% increase from the previously announced 180,000 million yen.

Operating profit is expected to climb to 8,400 million yen, a substantial 44.8% increase over the prior forecast of 5,800 million yen. Ordinary profit is also revised upward by 43.3% to 8,600 million yen from 6,000 million yen. Profit attributable to owners of parent is set to increase by 80.6% to 6,500 million yen from 3,600 million yen, with earnings per share rising to 294.82 yen from 163.28 yen.

The revision is attributed to strong performance in the toy business, particularly BANDAI SPIRITS' "Ichiban Kuji," and robust sales of "Nintendo Switch 2" related products in the video game business, alongside increased sales of capsule toys in the amusement business. The full-year forecasts remain unreviewed due to uncertainties surrounding the upcoming Christmas and New Year holiday season.
