Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls Say
Low Leverage & Sizable Equity CushionVery low debt-to-equity (~0.03 in 2025) and ~¥10.3B of equity provide a durable financial buffer. This reduces near-term refinancing risk and buys runway for product investment or restructuring, allowing the company to sustain operations while pursuing a recovery in games performance.
Proven Profitability In Better ConditionsHistorical profitability (profitable in 2020) indicates the free-to-play development and live-ops model can generate sustainable returns when hit titles and content cadence align. This experience and operational know-how increase the odds management can rebuild earnings with successful releases over the medium term.
Live-ops Recurring Revenue ModelThe core business relies on recurring in-app purchase revenues from live-ops, a structurally durable model: regular content and events sustain player spend and lifetime value. If product quality and content pipelines are restored, this revenue mechanism supports steady mid-term cashflows independent of one-off sales.
Bears Say
Prolonged Revenue Downcycle & Margin ErosionMulti-year revenue declines and steep margin compression materially weaken core earnings power. Falling gross margins and a ~-60.9% net margin in 2025 reduce internal funds to support content investment and user acquisition, making a sustainable turnaround dependent on reversing product-level trends.
Weak Cash Generation And Recurring Cash BurnPersistent negative operating and free cash flow (approx -¥1.80B OCF, -¥1.98B FCF in 2025) forces reliance on balance-sheet support. Continued cash burn constrains marketing and development spend, raising the risk that the company cannot fund the investments needed to regain player traction without external financing.
Ongoing Losses Risk Eroding EquitySustained net losses and negative ROE can progressively deplete the current equity cushion. Even with low leverage today, continued losses would shrink shareholders' equity and strategic flexibility, increasing the likelihood of dilutive financing or forced cost cuts that could impair long-term game development.
