Nintendo FY2025 Annual Report - Part II
Key Logic
Nintendo's financial performance in FY2025 showed a significant decline in revenue and Operating profit, primarily driven by a drop in sales of Dedicated video game platforms. However, the company maintained a substantial level of cash management. The annual report provides detailed disclosures on its accounting policies, significant accounting estimates (such as Inventories and Deferred tax assets valuation), financial instrument risk management, and revenue recognition mechanisms. It particularly highlights the uncertainty surrounding Inventories and Deferred tax assets valuation in the rapidly changing gaming industry environment. Furthermore, the report reveals the detailed composition of changes in equity, cash flow structure, and retirement benefit plans, clarifies Nintendo's principle of reporting as a single operating segment, and details transactions with related parties (e.g., Shuntaro Furukawa).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Scope of Consolidation, Equity Method, and Fiscal Year
- Scope of Consolidation: The company's core consolidated entities include 27 subsidiaries. In FY2025, 2 new companies were consolidated (due to establishment and acquisition), and 1 company was excluded (due to organizational restructuring).
- Unconsolidated Subsidiaries: 2 companies, including Fukuei Co., Ltd., were not consolidated as their scale is minor and do not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
- Equity Method Accounting: The equity method is applied to 4 affiliates, primarily including The Pokémon Company. Fukuei Co., Ltd. was not accounted for by the equity method as its impact was not material.
- Subsidiary Fiscal Year-End: The fiscal year-end of China subsidiary iQue (China) Ltd. and 1 other company is December 31. The difference from the consolidated financial statement date is within 3 months, so their financial statements at their fiscal year-end are used for consolidation, with adjustments made for significant transactions.
Significant Accounting Policies and Methods
- Asset Valuation Basis and Methods
- Securities:
- Held-to-maturity debt securities are valued at amortized cost (straight-line method).
- Other securities (excluding stocks without market prices) are valued at market price, with valuation differences recognized in net assets and cost of sales determined by the moving average method.
- Stocks without market prices are valued at cost using the moving average method.
- Derivatives: Valued at fair value.
- Inventories: Primarily valued at the moving average cost method, and written down for declines in profitability.
- Securities:
- Depreciation and Amortization Methods
- Property, plant and equipment: Japanese companies primarily use the declining balance method. Some tools, furniture, and fixtures are depreciated over their useful lives based on commercial obsolescence. Buildings and structures are depreciated using the straight-line method. Overseas consolidated subsidiaries use the straight-line method. Main asset useful lives: Buildings and structures range from 3-60 years.
- Intangible assets: Amortized using the straight-line method. Software for internal use is amortized over its estimated internal useful life (typically 5 years).

- Significant Provision Accounting
- Allowance for doubtful accounts: Provided based on historical analysis and individual assessment.

- Simplified Method for Small Enterprises: Some subsidiaries use a simplified method to calculate retirement benefit liabilities and expenses.
- Retirement benefit asset: When assets in the company's Defined benefit corporate pension plan exceed obligations, it is recorded as a Retirement benefit asset within "investments and other assets".
- Foreign Currency Asset and Liability Translation:
- All foreign currency denominated monetary receivables and payables of Japanese companies are translated into Japanese Yen at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date.
- Overseas subsidiaries' assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date, while income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the fiscal year. The difference is recognized in Foreign currency translation adjustment within net assets.
- Goodwill Amortization: Primarily amortized equally over 5 years. If the amount is immaterial, it is fully written off in the fiscal year of occurrence.
- Cash and Cash Equivalents Scope: Includes cash on hand, readily available time deposits and short-term investments, which have minor fluctuation risk in value and mature within 3 months from the acquisition date.
