2SQUARE ENIX CO., LTD.
I am proud to present the annual report of SQUARE ENIX
for fiscal 2004, ended March 31, 2005.
Fiscal 2004 was the Company’s second year of
business since we were formed through the merger
of SQUARE CO., LTD., and ENIX CORPORATION.
Consolidated net sales increased 16.9%, to ¥73,864 million;
operating income rose 36.3%, to ¥26,438 million; recurring
income jumped 41.9%, to ¥25,901 million; and net income
climbed 35.8%, to ¥14,932 million. These results all
represented record highs for the Company.
Our operating income margin of 35.8% and return
on equity (ROE) of 14.5% are among the highest in
the industry.
I am pleased to report that all of our operations are
proceeding smoothly and according to plan.
As a gesture of appreciation to our shareholders, we
added a commemorative dividend of ¥30 to our common
dividend, making the total dividend for the period
¥60—double that of fiscal 2003.
President and Representative Director
Yoichi Wada
