Konami's Gaming Revenue Rises 41%

Japanese gaming company Konami reported a strong revenue increase in its Gaming & Systems business unit for the six-month period ending September 30, 2026. The company generated 25.1 billion yen (159 million dollars) in revenue during the period. The figure represents a 41.3% increase compared with the same period of the previous year.

Segment profit rose even faster than revenue. It climbed 154.4% to 2.41 billion yen (15.3 million dollars). Konami attributed the results especially to stable conditions in North America and Australia. New casino investments and demand for renovations at existing facilities provided the company with additional opportunities.

On the product side, the Solstice 49C slot machine received positive feedback from the market. The BOMBERMAN series performed well in North America. In Australia, Dragon Rush and Bull Rush Stampede delivered promising results.

The SYNKROS casino management system is being used at a growing number of facilities and on ships belonging to Carnival Corporation. According to the company's data, the number of slot machines connected to the system exceeds 150,000.

Konami acknowledges that competition remains strong. Noting that rival firms continually release new products, the company plans to respond by developing new slot machines, game content and management technology features. It said that with the growing number of installations in the cruise sector, new opportunities for SYNKROS are also open.
