Nihon Falcom Raises Fiscal 2026 Earnings Forecast
Nihon Falcom announced on October 7 a significant upward revision to its earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending September 2026. The adjustment reflects strong sales performance from Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter, released globally last month, and Kyoto Xanadu -the Blooming Phantom-, which launched in July.
Projected revenue has increased by 19.4%, rising from $22.7 million USD to $27.1 million USD. Operating profit expectations jumped by 27.2% to $17.6 million USD, while net profits are expected to grow by 26.6% to $12 million USD. This marks the second major financial revision this year, following an earlier update in May that also cited robust sales figures.
