KONAMI HOLDINGS CORPORATION (the “Company”) disclosed the supplemental data for the consolidated financial statements via the Company's website on May 13, 2021. 4 1. Business Performance (1) Overview of Business Performance (i) Business Performance For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, the economy remains stagnant with global restrictions on social and economic activities, due to the coronavirus outbreak. Prolonged coronavirus outbreak continues to impact on the economy and the future business environment remains significantly uncertain, thus it is expected that world-wide economic recovery requires more time. Under such circumstances, revenues of some business segments were impacted from temporal closures to prevent the coronavirus outbreak as well as world-wide economic slowdown. However, strong performance of products and services in the Digital Entertainment business including mobile games, computer and video games and card games led to an increase in revenues and business profit has reached a record high. Moreover, operating profit, profit before income tax and profit attributable to owners of the parent for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 have all increased. Starting from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, the name of the profit, which is calculated by deducting “cost of revenue” and “selling, general and administrative expenses” from “revenue,” has been defined as “Business profit.” In terms of the consolidated results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, total revenue amounted to ¥272,656 million (a year-on-year increase of 3.7%), business profit was ¥64,164 million (a year-on-year increase of 44.8%), operating profit was ¥36,550 million (a year-on-year increase of 18.0%), profit before income taxes was ¥35,581 million (a year-on-year increase of 17.1%), and profit attributable to owners of the parent was ¥32,261 million (a year-on-year increase of 62.2%). 5 (ii) Performance by Business Segment Summary of total revenue by business segment: Millions of Yen, except percentages Year ended Year ended % change March 31, 2020 March 31, 2021 Total revenue: Digital Entertainment ¥153,395 ¥204,185 33.1 Amusement 23,718 17,636 (25.6) Gaming & Systems 28,401 16,643 (41.4) Sports 58,984 36,409 (38.3) Intersegment eliminations (1,688) (2,217) - Total revenue ¥262,810 ¥272,656 3.7 Digital Entertainment In the entertainment market, future development of game contents is expected through the functional enhancement of various devices, including mobile devices and video game consoles, and the standardization of next generation communication systems.

Publication Date 2015 Peer reviewed|Thesis/dissertation eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Programmed Moves: Race and Embodiment in Fighting and Dancing Videogames by Irene Yi-Jiun Chien A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Media and the Designated Emphasis in New Media in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Linda Williams, Chair Professor Kristen Whissel Professor Greg Niemeyer Professor Abigail De Kosnik Spring 2015 Abstract Programmed Moves: Race and Embodiment in Fighting and Dancing Videogames by Irene Yi-Jiun Chien Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Media Designated Emphasis in New Media University of California, Berkeley Professor Linda Williams, Chair Programmed Moves examines the intertwined history and transnational circulation of two major videogame genres, martial arts fighting games and rhythm dancing games. Fighting and dancing games both emerge from Asia, and they both foreground the body. They strip down bodily movement into elemental actions like stepping, kicking, leaping, and tapping, and make these the form and content of the game. I argue that fighting and dancing games point to a key dynamic in videogame play: the programming of the body into the algorithmic logic of the game, a logic that increasingly organizes the informatic structure of everyday work and leisure in a globally interconnected information economy.
