What this is
How fast Nintendo's share of affiliate profit, mainly The Pokémon Company, grew in the six months to September 2026: up 37.7% to ¥60.8bn, or ¥16.6bn more.
How it’s built
- ¥60.8bn ÷ ¥44.2bn − 1 = 37.7%.
- Quarter to June: ¥30.3bn, up 45.8%. Quarter to September: ¥60.8bn − ¥30.3bn = ¥30.5bn, up 30.4% and 0.7% above the June quarter.
What we assumed
Nothing. The figure is used as published.
Sanity check
The June quarter was 68.5% above the March quarter before it. Last year's half included a one-off gain, so the underlying growth is higher than 37.7%.
Where it comes from
Our calculation from other figures in the trainer’s notes:
Show the working
- H1 year to March 2027: 60,822
- H1 year to March 2026: 44,173
- H1 change: 16,649
- H1 yoy: 37.7%
- Q1 year to March 2027: 30,309
- Q1 yoy: 45.8%
- 60,822 / 44,173 − 1 = 37.7%
- Q2 = 60,822 − 30,309 = 30,513
- 30,513/23,391 − 1 = 30.4%
- Q1 30,309/20,782 − 1 = 45.8%
