The firm said core product sales continued to perform strongly in the global gaming market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Japan.- Casino gaming hardware manufacturer Japan Cash Machine Co (JCM Global) has reported a net profit of nearly JPY4.98bn (US$31.7m) for the nine months ended December 31, 2025. That’s a 21.5 per cent year-on-year increase. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The boost was largely driven by gains from non-current asset sales booked as extraordinary income in the July\u2013September quarter. Net sales for April through December totalled JPY23.43bn (US$149.2m), down 22.7 per cent year-on-year. The firm\u2019s global gaming business accounted for net sales of JPY15.79bn (US$100.5m), decreasing 3.7 per cent year-on-year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continued strong sales of gaming machine bill validators in North America underpinned performance, while sales in Europe declined. Segment profit for the nine months ended December 31 reached roughly JPY3.86bn <\/strong>(US$24.6m), largely due to stronger sales of high-margin offerings. The firm said core product sales continued to perform strongly, supported by stable demand from casino hotels and other facilities across North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In revised 2026 guidance, JCM reaffirmed its net sales target of JPY31.00bn (US$197.2m) for the 12 months to March 31 and now anticipates operating income of JPY2.60bn (US$16.5m) and net profit of JPY5.00bn (US$31.8m). The forecast replaces earlier guidance of JPY1.40bn (US$8.9m) in operating income and JPY3.20bn (US$20.4m) in net profit for the year.<\/p>\n\n\n
