2.5% FY2018 (Apr 2018–Mar 2019)

FiledA ratio of two filed figures.

What this is

Nintendo’s share of affiliate profit, chiefly The Pokémon Company, as a share of its pre-tax recurring profit, year to March 2019: 2.5%.

How it’s built

  1. Divided Nintendo’s ¥6.9bn share of affiliate profit by its ¥277.4bn ordinary profit, both from its filings.

What we assumed

  • Affiliate profit is treated as Pokémon.Nintendo reports all affiliates together; The Pokémon Company is the main one.

Sanity check

Part of a run from 2018 to 2021 when affiliate profit was ¥7–10bn a year, small beside Nintendo’s own.
