Here’s a link to the Notice of Full-Year Financial Forecast Modifications.

We have modified the financial forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2024,originally published on May 9, 2023.

  • We have revised our exchange rate assumptions in consideration of recent exchange rate fluctuations and other economic conditions and reflected the sales results of the first half of this fiscal year in our full-year forecast.
  • Our revised outlook is 1,580.0 billion yen in net sales, 500.0 billion yen in operating profit, 600.0 billion yen in ordinary profit, and 420.0 billion yen in profit attributable to owners of parent.
  • The assumed exchange rates have been changed from 130 yen to 140 yen per U.S. dollar and 135 yen to 150 yen per euro.
  • The annual dividend forecast has been revised from 147 yen to 181 yen per share as a result of the modification of the financial forecast.
  • For Nintendo Switch software, we increased our forecast by 5.00 million units to 185.00 million units.
Nintendo has a track record of providing conservative full year guidance.

Nintendo increased the forecast for Net Sales by 9 percent, Operating profit by 11.1 percent, Ordinary profit by 25 percent, and Net profit by 23.5 percent. The company also increased the dividend forecast by 23 percent. The forecast for Switch hardware sales remained unchanged, but the company now expects to sell 2.8% more software units by the end of FY 2024. Nintendo did have an opportunity to factor in the Mario Movie effect back in August when the company reported Q1 2024 results, but there is a chance that the yen’s persistent weakness against the dollar and euro has also become too hard to ignore. People also keep buying Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
