Seyon Park’s rating is based on a combination of factors that suggest a positive medium-term outlook for KONAMI HOLDINGS despite some short-term challenges. While the upcoming second-quarter results might not meet consensus expectations due to lower-than-anticipated sales of MGS Delta, the performance of Silent Hill f has been stronger than expected, which provides a positive offset.
Additionally, the strong growth of eFootball, driven by recent updates, contrasts with declines in other mobile games. Park acknowledges the risk of operating profit falling short of consensus in the second quarter, but he sees potential buying opportunities if the stock experiences a pullback. The anticipated launches and major sporting events in 2026, such as the World Baseball Classic and FIFA World Cup, contribute to a constructive medium-term outlook, supporting the Buy rating.
According to TipRanks, Park is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 16.6% and an 82.61% success rate.
