Earnings Report

Marvelous Inc. <7844> [TSE Prime] announced its financial results after the market closed on January 31st (15:30). The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2025 (April to December) decreased 5.2% from the same period last year to 1.65 billion yen.

In addition, the full-year consolidated ordinary profit has decreased 14.3%, from the previous forecast of 1.75 billion yen to 1.5 billion yen (compared to 3 billion yen in the previous period), leading to an increase in the profit decline rate from 41.7% to 50.0%.

Based on the full-year plan announced by the company after the downward revision, our estimate of the consolidated ordinary profit for the October to March period (2H) has decreased 18.2%, from the previous forecast of 1.37 billion yen to 1.12 billion yen (compared to 1.35 billion yen in the same period of the previous year). This changes the outlook from an anticipated profit increase to a projection of a 16.9% decrease in profit.

Due to a decline in performance, the company has decided to implement a year-end lump-sum dividend of 10 yen for the current fiscal year, which was previously undecided (compared to 33 yen in the prior term).

In the most recent three-month period, from October to December (3Q), the consolidated ordinary profit surged 13 times that of the same period last year, reaching 1.28 billion yen. The operating profit margin drastically improved from 3.1% in the same period last year to 12.4%.
