2. Business Performance and Cash Flows

1. Business Performance

Overview

In the entertainment industry as it relates to Konami, the home video game software market has entered a new growth phase. The industry has attracted a broad cross section of users of both sexes and all ages now that next-generation computer entertainment systems and handheld game consoles are available from all hardware manufacturers, along with contents that capitalize on the differing features of each. In the commercial video game market, meanwhile, the user base is growing due to the spread of services that make use of online functions and the expansion of facilities through scrapping and building. That in turn has generated demand for new content.

In the health industry, specific health maintenance measures so-called “designated checkups and health guidance” are to be launched in April 2008, with the goal of preventing life style diseases through encouraging the adopting of regular exercise regimes and improvements in diet by health insurers. In light of the aging of Japan’s population, such measures underscore the importance of taking action to prevent the need for nursing care, with the baby boomers now beginning to retire en masse. Greater demand and health awareness may thus drive further growth in the health market.

With respect to our business, in our Digital Entertainment segment, and in the field of home video game software in particular, we recorded steady sales of our baseball games, which we market on a multiplatform basis. Sales of products for amusement arcades also remained steady, including for our mainstay video games and token-operated games.

In our Health and Fitness segment, we took steps to increase our membership rolls. Specifically, we expanded our various health support programs catering to different ages, notably the baby boomers with their growing interest in improving their fitness and avoiding the need for nursing care. On the service front, we strongly promoted the installing of our proprietary IT health management system in our fitness clubs. The number of facilities outsourced to us has increased, as our expertise and track records in running those facilities are now widely recognized throughout Japan.

In our Gaming and System segment, we increased sales by consolidating our base and expanding content in the growing North American market. Sales of the “Konami Casino Management System” in particular climbed steadily. This helped stabilize profit structure, since installing more units leads to an increase in income from maintenance and servicing.

As a result, for the three months ended June 30, 2007, net revenues was ¥60,650 million, a 5.2% increase compared to the previous same period, operating income was ¥7,010 million, a 16.8% increase compared to the previous same period, income before income taxes was ¥7,271 million, a 25.3% increase compared to the previous same period and net income was ¥3,863 million, a 82.2% increase compared to the previous same period.

Digital Entertainment

Computer and Video Games business. On the domestic Japanese market, baseball titles like “PUROYAKYU SPIRITS 4” and “JIKKYOU PAWAFURU PUROYAKYU PORTABLE 2” recorded strong sales. Overseas, the popular “PRO EVOLUTION SOCCER” series for the European market, as well as “Eledees” (known in Japan as “Elebits”) and “METAL GEAR SOLID PORTABLE OPS,” likewise recorded strong sales.

Toy & Hobby business. The mainstay “YU-GI-OH! TRADING CARD GAME” series continued to sell well worldwide. Meanwhile the “BLUE DRAGON ROLE PLAYING CARD GAME” series was released to coincide with the debut of the like-named anime TV series in April 2007. This has proved particularly popular with children of primary school age, and sales have climbed steadily. The “BUSOU SHINKI” series an original action figures has been synchronized more closely with the online game, making it more fun than ever.

Amusement business. “MAH-JONG FIGHT CLUB 6,” the latest addition to the much-praised mah-jong game series that enables players to match wits on line, sold well upon its release. This utilizes the “e-AMUSEMENT” system, a service networking amusement arcades nationwide in Japan. In the area of our mainstay music games, the latest offering in the series was released, “pop'n music 15 ADVENTURE,” which went on to record strong sales. In the field of token-operated games, “EUROQUEEN,” the seventh installment in the ever-popular “GALAXYWORLD” series, was released to favorable reviews.

Online business. In April 2007, “BUSOU SHINKI BATTLE RONDO” was launched. The game allows players to battle against other players via the “SHINKI NET” online game service, which is tied in with the “BUSOU SHINKI” series of original action figures. Another release was “Aquanaut ~ Online Aquarium,” a game that gives relaxation by imaginarily transforming your home computer screen into an aquarium where you can keep menagerie of fish, is played by many users. In terms of mobile services, “KONAMI LOGOMUSIC FULL,” which allows players to enjoy the theme music from Konami games, has been enhanced with video distribution and user review features.

Multimedia business. A number of guides, books, music CDs and other merchandise tied in with popular game software were released, and these too have sold well. The ninth installment of the “Series of simple health rules How to take off seven(7) years” health book series likewise sold well upon its release.

As a result, consolidated net revenues in this segment for the three months ended June 30, 2007 amounted to ¥34,800 million, a 8.6% increase compared to the previous same period.

Health & Fitness

Operation of fitness clubs. At facilities that we directly manage, a new, more economically priced membership exclusively for those sixty and above was introduced this May. The “e-XAX Branch Membership S,” as it is called, is designed to help baby boomers stay fit. Our 2007 Summer Campaign took place in June, as part of an effort to expand our membership rolls. In terms of services offered at our clubs, further progress was made in installing the e-XAX health management system, which keeps track of each individual’s exercise history and manages data on his or her fitness progress. In addition, Konami offers several lifestyle improvement and community support programs. The “KENKO PLUS” program is coordinated with “health guidance” for those at risk of lifestyle diseases — the guidance that, under the Health Insurance Reform Law, is to start being implemented in April 2008. “6 WEEKS” is a lifestyle disease prevention program and “HATSURATSU KENKOJYUKU” provides exercise guidance to senior citizens.

We also continued to play an active role in helping local residents get in better shape by putting our know-how and proven record of achievement to good use in the running of public facilities outsourced to us. We added a total of seven new facilities to the list of those outsourced to us, in such locations as Setagaya Ward (Tokyo), Wako City (Saitama), and Kariya City (Aichi). As of June 30, 2007, the number of fitness clubs run either directly or outsourced to us totaled 319 throughout Japan.

Health products. We continued to sell the multifunctional USB pedometer “e-walkeylife2,” the TV-linked health management tool “Kenshin Keikaku TV,” and the computer software program “Kenshin-Keikaku 2,” as well as our own original supplements. Konami is steadily expanding its product lineup to cater to today’s evolving health needs.

Konami unveiled two new items at Health & Fitness Japan 2007, which took place at Tokyo Big Sight in June 2007. “SHIN AEROBIKE” automatically calculates what exercise load is right for the user, enabling the user to burn fat more efficiently. “GROVE MOTION DDR” redefines the concept of what a digital studio program is. Both earned highly favorable reviews. Meanwhile we inaugurated a new service that gives Konami Sports Club members preferential access to over 6,000 services offered by our financial and operational partner Resort Solution Co., Ltd. These include use of hotel and leisure facilities, as well as medical checkups and complete health exams.

As a result, consolidated net revenues in this segment for the three months ended June 30, 2007 amounted to ¥21,617 million, a 1.4% increase compared to the previous same period.

Gaming & System

A growing number of jurisdictions have legalized gaming — Pennsylvania and Oklahoma being among the latest — and the gaming market is expanding on a global scale, with the well-established but still-growing North American market leading the way. Konami is exploiting these trends by developing and marketing new products.

The Asia region, led my Macau, is growing particularly rapidly. In a bid to cater to this promising market, Las Vegas-based Konami Gaming Inc. and Sydney-based Konami Australia Pty Ltd exhibited together for the first time ever at the Global Gaming Expo Asia 2007 held in Macau in June. Among the products featured were two “progressive” products that have been highly popular on the North American market, “Mystical Temple” and the “Konami Casino Management System.”

In North America, Konami is seeking to secure steady revenues from participation agreements (a form of equipment sale in which profits are shared) and from maintaining and servicing the “Konami Casino Management System.

In the domestic Australian market, New South Wales has imposed a requirement that, from July, clubs and pubs must establish non-smoking areas, and for this and other reasons market growth has been flat. Nonetheless, we are working to clinch more orders in Australia and neighboring New Zealand by, among other things, bringing to market new products that are currently awaiting licensing.

Konami intends to build a truly global development system capable of catering to developing markets in Asia, South America, Europe, and elsewhere. We plan to pursue options like strategic alliances with other companies, such as the OEM agreements that are already being implemented.

As a result, consolidated net revenues in this segment for the three months ended June 30, 2007 amounted to ¥3,572 million, a 2.0% increase compared to the previous same period.

Cash flows from operating activities:

Cash provided by operating activities amounted to ¥489 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a 83.9% decrease compared to the previous same period.

Cash flows from investing activities:

Cash used in investing activities amounted to ¥6,778 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a 181.4% increase compared to the previous same period. This was primarily due to an increase in lease deposits and capital expenditures relating to Konami moving to a new office building.

Cash flows from financing activities:

Cash used in financing activities amounted to ¥4,277 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a 13.3% decrease compared to the previous same period, primarily due to distribution of cash dividends.

Statements made in this document with respect to our current plans, estimates, strategies and beliefs, including the above forecasts, are forward-looking statements about our future performance. These statements are based on management's assumptions and beliefs in light of information currently available to it and, therefore, you should not place undue reliance on them.
