- Capcom has just recently released its Fy25 H1 earnings report.
- The report revealed that the company has seen a pretty steep decline in net sales and income YoY.
- However, releases like Monster Hunter Wilds, Resident Evil 9, and the revival of some old classics can turn the tables.
Capcom is one of the biggest publishers as it has the likes of Resident Evil, Moster Hunter, and Devil May Cry franchise. Lately, the developer has released quality titles, but Dragon’s Dogma 2 sales weren’t that fantastic.
The recent games from this company weren’t that popular either. Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, Ace Attorney Investigations collection, and Marvel Vs. Capcom fighting wasn’t a major hit on Steam.
Therefore, the company has seen a decline of 25% and 40% in net sales and net income, respectively.
Why it matters: Capcom has been making some good progress, but the overall decline seems harsh. However, Monster Hunter Wilds and Resident Evil 9, two of its most anticipated games, can turn the tables.
MauroNL3 on Twitter shared that, according to Capcom’s Fy25 H1 earnings, net sales declined 25% year over year, and net income declined 40% year over year. However, the overall progress to meet the full-year target has been good.
- Net Sales: $367.8M -25% YoY
- Net Income: $99.1M -40% YoY
The decline in net sales and income might seem concerning, but Capcom has some notable releases up its sleeves. Monster Hunter Wilds is set to release on February 28, 2025, while Resident Evil 9 has no release date. However, the Metacritic page is already live, so an announcement is expected soon.
The company’s digital content sales have also declined 35% year over year. It sold just 20M software units in H1, meaning there was an 11% YoY decline. It is also worth noting that the operating and ordinary income have also seen a massive YoY decline.
Hopefully, the company will see increased sales now as it plans to revive some of the classic IPs. The demand for a remake of the Dino Crisis is pretty high, so that should be Capcom’s priority.
What do you think of the decline in the company’s net sales and net income? What do you think causes this? Let us know in the comments section below, or join the discussion at Tech4Gamers’ official forums.
