1. Outline of reporting segments
The Company’s reporting segments are business units for which abstracted financial data is available and periodically reviewed by the Board of Directors to
determine resource allocation and to evaluate business performance.
In a rapidly evolving business environment, the Company seeks to provide high-quality entertainment content and services through a variety of environments to
match customer lifestyles.
Accordingly, the Company maintains four business segments, each dedicated to a particular entertainment content and service format: (1) the “Digital
Entertainment” segment, for interactive digital content for game consoles (including handheld game machines), personal computers and smartphones; (2) the
“Amusement” segment, for amusement facility operation as well as the sale and rental of arcade game machines; (3) the “Publication” segment, for publication of
comic books, game strategy books and comic magazines; and (4) the “Merchandising” segment, for planning, production, distribution and licensing of derivative
products. These are the Company’s reporting segments.
2. Calculating reporting segment sales, income (loss), assets and other items
Accounting treatment methods applied to financial results of reporting segments are the same as those used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated
financial statements. Reporting segment income corresponds to operating income. Intersegment sales are based on prevailing prices in the market for the content
and/or services provided.
