Business Performance (1) Overview of Business Performance (i) Business Performance For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, the Japanese economy remained strong with improvement in corporate earnings and the labor environment and recovery in consumer spending. While overseas economies are also gradually recovering, the future remains uncertain because of concerns about political and policy movements and a heightening of geopolitical risks. In the entertainment market, game contents continue to diversify along with functional enhancement of various devices, including mobile devices and video game consoles, and development of information and telecommunications infrastructure. In conjunction with the changing times, the preference for enriching daily life through full and abundant experiences in personal spending has been strengthened. In the game industry, efforts are accelerating to offer new experiences through game content in various ways, including eSports, which are regarded as a form of sports competition and are attracting more and more attention. In spite of a continuously harsh market environment for the amusement industry, there are signs of recovery in the market, including an increase in users with families at arcade game areas in shopping malls due to an ease in restrictions on the hours minors can be admitted by prefectural enforcement ordinance revisions in accordance with partial revisions to the “Act on Control and Improvement of Amusement Businesses” (Entertainment Business Law) which began to be enforced from June 2016, as well as the addition of new users led by measures toward revitalizing the industry as a whole. The gaming market is continuing to see growth with the worldwide development and opening of new casino facilities and integrated resorts (IR) which include casinos.
