Aiming has released their third quarter report for the fiscal year ending December 2024.

• Sales increased 5.4% (3.488 to 3.678 billion yen) and gross profit increased Y% (1.597 to 2.085 billion yen), but operating profit decreased 9.1% (599 million yen to 554 million yen) and quarterly net income attributed to non-controlling interests decreased 93.9% (588 million yen to 36 million yen).
• 2.5 Dimensional Seduction: Angels on Stage! contributed to Aiming’s revenue increase, but ultimately fell short of expectations by over 800 million yen.
• Aiming’s massive decrease in quarterly net income was due to the formation of a production committee related to their new Wind Breaker game, Rebel Heroes. Due to delays in forming the production committee, approximately 1 billion yen in planned consignment sales and a 400 million yen equity method investment loss have also been delayed to the fourth quarter.

Aiming expects a 55.8% increase in sales (3.678 to 5.732 billion yen) in the fourth quarter due to The Eminence in Shadow: Master of Garden’s 2nd anniversary event, quarterly contribution from 2.5 Dimensional Seduction: Angels on Stage!, and the October 2 launch of Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Die Neue Saga. They also expect a 90.8% increase in operating income (554 million yen to 1.057 billion yen).

Aiming also revealed that they have two games in development, one of which is based on an anime IP and codenamed “Project G.”
