Management comments from Yoichi Wada, President and Representative
Director:

"We are pleased to announce results for the fiscal year ended March 2010
that achieve the highest net sales, operating income and recurring income
since the merger in April 2003. Including flagship titles of FINAL FANTASY
and DRAGON QUEST, we released five titles that became million-sellers - three
of which shipped over 3 million units. During the year we also successfully
acquired and integrated U.K. based Eidos with a goal of expanding our own
powerful IP line-up and strengthening our business platform in North America
and Europe. Furthermore, we were able to raise our ability to meet the
rapidly changing operating environment by our streamlining of the Group's
headcount and asset levels.

"We were also pleased to announce our plan to commemorate the achievement
of record profits by bringing a proposal to the shareholders' meeting to pay
a special dividend above and beyond our previous fiscal year and prior plan.
This dividend of 5 yen per share is expected to raise the upcoming dividend
payment to 25 yen per share (representing 35 yen in annual distributions
including the 10 yen already paid)."
