Nacon said that sales for the second quarter of its 2025-26 fiscal year rose 4.5% to €46.8 M, in a release dated Oct 27, 2025 that France's market regulator, the AMF, published in English on Oct 28, 2025. Games sales for the quarter, Jul 1 to Sep 30, rose 31.7% to €36.7 million, an increase of €8.8 million on the same period a year earlier. The company said the growth was due to its Catalogue activity, up 52.5% to €22.8 million, and to its Back Catalogue, games released in previous fiscal years, up 7.8% to €14.0 million. Catalogue grew despite a high comparison base, it added: the second quarter of 2024-25 had included the release of Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown.1^,2^,3^,4^,5^,6^,7^,8

It said the Catalogue performance was based on strong sales of Rugby League 26, released on Jul 17, the return of Robocop: Rogue City – Unfinished Business, which had a user score of 85%, and the reception of Hell is Us, released on Sep 4, 2025. Hell is Us had earned a user score of 88% and had over 1.5 million residual wish lists at the time of the release, which defined them as purchase intentions not yet realized, and the company counted it among its biggest launches. Accessories sales fell 42.7% to €9.0 million, which the company tied to a 66% decline in sales on the American market linked to increased customs duties.9^,10^,11^,12^,13^,14^,15

Nacon said it brought together 16 development studios, AA video game publishing, and the design and distribution of premium gaming peripherals. For the year from Apr 1, 2024 to Mar 31, 2025 it reported revenue of €167.9 million and operating income of €1.1 million. For the second half of its 2025-26 fiscal year, the release said activity would be driven mainly by Catalogue releases, among them Dragonkin: The Banished, Styx: Blades of Greed, Edge of Memories and GreedFall II. It added that accessories could remain affected over that half-year by uncertainty in the American market, although signs of recovery were emerging. Nacon said it was confident it could generate strong growth in 2025-26, and the release confirmed the group's annual targets. Its first-half results for 2025-26 were due on Nov 24, 2025, after the market close.16^,17^,18^,19^,20^,21^,22^,23

The AMF filed the release under inside information, news that a listed company must publish as soon as it can because it may move its share price. We hold the text of this one release, 2 pages in English, with its layout left out, and none of the documents it refers to, and the text we hold does not give figures for the annual targets it confirms.24^,25^,26
