Overview
- Singapore-based 3D Investment Partners, holding about 14.36% of Square Enix, is urging a fundamental reassessment of the company’s medium-term plan.
- The investor says earning power has deteriorated and calls for concrete countermeasures with clear KPIs, targets, and execution details.
- The fund asked fellow shareholders to submit “frank views” for the board after what it describes as only a brief reply from president Takashi Kiryu.
- The presentation highlights weak sales and high development costs, citing an average 15.6 billion yen per RPG versus Capcom’s 6.6 billion yen.
- The move follows write-offs, underperforming flagship releases, and a “reboot” plan that critics argue lacks a concrete future vision.
