The customer base is composed mainly of core users who are highly loyal to game titles. They have relatively high willingness to purchase sequels and remakes along with low sensitivity to price and economic conditions. Hereafter, we expect the market to grow as we capture the casual user segment, which has high sensitivity to price conditions, in conjunction with a higher digital sales ratio, shrinking the gap between the margin in this market and those in the other two markets. <\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"rlink txtR\">\n<a href=\"market02.html#consumer\">[An Analysis of the Market and Capcom]<br>\nExplanation of Market Trends and Forecasts<\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n<\/dd>\n\n<dt><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/ir\/assets\/images\/data\/oar\/2018\/finance\/img_market_02_1.png\"> Mobile Market Characteristics<\/dt>\n<dd>\n<p class=\"p mT15\">This is a 59.4 billion dollar market, forecast to grow to 92 billion dollars by 2022. The customer segment is primarily composed of casual users, many of whom play games in their spare time, thus they demonstrate the lowest loyalty toward game titles. They have a limited willingness to purchase games and have the highest sensitivity to price and economic conditions. Although this is the most profitable among the three markets, only a limited number of titles are able to generate stable earnings over the long term. Going forward, we expect smartphones will continue to grow rapidly as the most pervasive game device.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"rlink txtR\">\n<a href=\"market02.html#mobile\">[An Analysis of the Market and Capcom] Mobile Contents Market<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n\n<dt><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/ir\/assets\/images\/data\/oar\/2018\/finance\/img_market_02_2.png\"> PC Online Market Characteristics<\/dt>\n<dd>\n<p class=\"p mT15\">This is a 38.4 billion dollar market, forecast to grow about 19% over the next five years to 45.8 billion dollars by 2022. The customer base is primarily composed of core users who demonstrate the highest loyalty toward game titles. They have a fairly strong willingness to engage in ongoing purchases, and are unique for having the lowest sensitivity to price and economic conditions. Among the three markets, profitability is comparatively high, and hit titles tend to generate stable earnings over the long term; however, the influx of new customers is expected to taper off, causing growth to be sluggish in the future.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"rlink txtR\">\n<a href=\"market02.html#pc\">[An Analysis of the Market and Capcom] PC Online Market<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div><!--\/\/section-->\n<\/div><!--\/\/market-->\n\n<p class=\"sm_title mT15\">Five Competitive Factors Related to the Consumer Market (Five Forces Analysis)<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"force5\">\n<p class=\"txtC\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/ir\/english\/assets\/images\/data\/oar\/2018\/finance\/img_market_03.png\" alt=\"Five Competitive Factors Related to the Consumer Market (Five Forces Analysis)\"><\/p>\n<\/div><!--\/\/force5-->\n\n\n<\/div><!--\/\/container-->\n<\/section><!--\/\/market-->\n\n\n\n<a name=\"jigyo\" class=\"anchorTarget\"><\/a>\n<section class=\"market s02\">\n<div class=\"container\">\n<h2 class=\"h2_market mT30\"><span>Capcom Business Characteristics<\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"market mT30 clearfix\">\n\n<div class=\"fLeft mT15\">\n<p class=\"sm_title\">Digital Contents Business Portfolio<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/ir\/english\/assets\/images\/data\/oar\/2018\/finance\/img_market_04.png\">\n\n<\/div><!--fLeft-->\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"section\">\n<dl>\n<dt><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/ir\/assets\/images\/data\/oar\/2018\/finance\/img_market_05.png\"> Consumer Market Characteristics <br>\n  (Proportion of Net Sales: 69%)<br><span>Package + Digital Download Contents<\/span><\/dt>\n<dd class=\"mT10\">\n<p class=\"p mT15\">Capcom&#8217;s core business is to create a multitude of original content for home video game consoles.

low evaluation of the originality of our system for training younger employees, we are working on system development that includes (1) providing an environment conductive to taking on new challenges through visualization of management, and (2) developing an environment of friendly rivalry through the promotion of younger employees and consolidation of offices. <\/li>\n<li class=\"mT5\">*2 With respect to the low evaluation globally despite being ahead of other companies in Japan, we are promoting measures such as (1) taking advantage of our many popular IPs by re-releasing past million-sellers (86 titles) in digital format and (2) extending the sales period with brand strategies for each IP. <\/li>\n<li class=\"mT5\">*3 With respect to the low evaluation of not successfully rolling out IPs to mobile platforms despite their relative strength, we are promoting measures such as (1) assigning capable creators to internal production and (2) forming alliances with mobile game companies possessing abundant game operations know-how. <\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><!--\/\/tableStyle-->\n<\/div><!--force5-->\n<\/div><!--\/\/container-->\n<\/section><!--\/\/market-->\n\n\n\n\n<div
