Square-Enix raises outlook
by Kit

Sunday, April 18 2004

Company expects full year operating profits to increase.

Square Enix Co., Ltd. has increased both profit and revenue expectations for its 2003/2004 fiscal year, which ended March 31.

The company now expects full year operating profit to be a record 19.0 billion yen (approximately $176.16 million U.S.), up from the previously expected 14.4 billion yen (approximately $133.51 million U.S.), with revenues of 63.0 billion yen (approximately $584.12 million U.S.), versus earlier eyed revenues of 56.0 billion yen (approximately $519.28 million U.S.).

Square Enix also expects net profit to rise, from 8.1 billion yen (approximately $75.11 million U.S.) to the latest guidance of 8.7 billion yen (approximately $80.67 million U.S.).

The firm cited strong sales of Final Fantasy XI, Dragon Quest V and Final Fantasy X-2, along with increased sales in its comic book and magazine divisions, as reasons for the brighter outlook.
