REVIEW OF SECOND QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenues

Online game revenues for the second quarter of 2025 were KRW 21,971 million (US$ 16,233 thousand), representing a 16.8% increase QoQ from KRW 18,806 million and a 13.0% increase YoY from KRW 19,445 million. The increase QoQ was mainly attributable to initial revenue from Ragnarok Online America Latina launched in Latin America on May 28, 2025. The increase YoY was also mainly due to initial revenue from Ragnarok Online America Latina launched in Latin America on May 28, 2025.

Mobile game revenues were KRW 144,003 million (US$ 106,393 thousand) for the second quarter of 2025, representing a 24.7% increase QoQ from KRW 115,486 million and a 45.4% increase YoY from KRW 99,019 million. The increase QoQ was resulted by initial revenues from Ragnarok M: Classic launched in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau on April 16, 2025 and Ragnarok X: Next Generation launched in North, Central and South America, Oceania, England, Portugal, Spain and Ireland on May 8, 2025. Such increase was partially offset by decreased revenues from Ragnarok: Rebirth in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau, Ragnarok Origin in Southeast Asia, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau and THE RAGNAROK in Southeast Asia. The increase YoY was mainly due to initial revenues from Ragnarok M: Classic launched in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau on April 16, 2025 and Southeast Asia on February 14, 2025, increased revenue from Ragnarok Idle Adventure Plus launched in Global except Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, China, Korea and Japan on February 20, 2025 and initial revenue from Ragnarok X: Next Generation launched in North, Central and South America, Oceania, England, Portugal, Spain and Ireland on May 8, 2025.

The increase QoQ was mainly due to commission paid for mobile game services related to Ragnarok M: Classic in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau and



Ragnarok X: Next Generation in North, Central and South America, Oceania, England, Portugal, Spain and Ireland. The increase YoY was primarily due to increased commission paid for mobile game services related to Ragnarok M: Classic in Southeast Asia, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau, Ragnarok Idle Adventure Plus in Global except Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, China, Korea and Japan and Ragnarok X: Next Generation in North, Central and South America, Oceania, England, Portugal, Spain and Ireland.

The increase QoQ was mainly due to increased advertising expenses for Ragnarok Online America Latina in Latin America, Nobunaga's Ambition: The Road to the World (Tentative English Title) in Japan, Ragnarok Idle Adventure Plus in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau and Ragnarok: Back to Glory in Korea. The increase YoY was also mainly due to increased advertising expenses for Ragnarok Online America Latina in Latin America, Ragnarok Idle Adventure Plus in Global, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau, Nobunaga's Ambition: The Road to the World (Tentative English Title) in Japan and Ragnarok: Back to Glory in Korea.
