Maybe they have 1 or 2 more waves planned, and their general plan is at least one wave could recreate the Luxiem success. Iluna seems like they were hoping for a wider audience and possibly more normalfags. Plus we know they want a "gamer" wave, which probably means a lot of apex players.

Fiscal years are named after the year the end in. Anycolor's fiscal year starts in May. So Q1 FY2023 means May 2022 to July 2022, since the year would end in 2023.

>> No.33163487

I'm looking at the real numbers from Q3 and before
~10bil yen in the first 3 qtr of 2022 accounting for 67-68 million USD revenue
~3.136 bil yen operating income
~1.23 bil yen administration and sales expenses
I don't know their accounting standard. I don't think the cost to actually produce the characters (art, rig) and liver compensation (I assume they take the whole lot then pay the liver split as a salary) are able to be deduced here as we are missing a line item for profit split/liver comp which should be the vast majority of their expenses - so let's say in these 3 qtr they spent Revenue - Sales expense - operating income = roughly 6.7 billion yen in a combined bucket of liver comp, artist payments etc etc

Interestingly enough let's assume for ease that every niji liver has a 50% split with the company (platform split wouldn't even make it to revenue line) then based on the revenue we can guess approximately 5b yen spent compensating livers
super napkin math here - that means the total production of everything paid for (is this accrual or cashflow? it's horseshit accounting shoved down the throats of clueless investors so that must mean accrual) such as models, outfits, equipment, comes down to around 1.6-1.7b yen

This bucket of 1.6b will also include an unknown amount of amortization, depreciation of streaming/3D gear/rent/merch production cost. I can't tell you how they paid artists in this time period as livers debuted during this time may have been rigged and paid for before. However, given how much merch was pumped out this year, one might guess that the prod cost of their merch cannot occupy a very large proportion of their expenses, something that makes sense based on their practice of giving everybody except luxiem the same generic acrylics, which then benefits from streamlining and scale

Very very napkin math bros. Many assumptions such as livers not footing any personal cost for merch. But we know from the numbers themselves that for Q1-Q3 they operated at 12% operating margin which is within what we would consider healthy.

Accounting anons please check my napkin math it's been too many years.

Charts are a combination of real numbers (up to Q3 2022) and copium. This shit is what you feed to clueless investors so don't take it seriously. They will throw in buzzwords like metaverse because boomers with money don't know better. The old numbers are what you should really give a shit about.

>>33163487
Sadly I don't think you can just split their revenue into 50%. Such a split would only make sense for platform revenue. Merch splits could be something like 50% after cost, at best. Anycolor has broken down their income by "customer" where those customers are Google (YT), Sony Music Solutions (Niji store is run by them), Pixiv (Booth), etc in other words the people who pay them money, and the biggest segment is Sony's store service, in other words merch. You could take that breakdown and split the YT rev by 50% though.

>> No.33163743

It seems that Anycolor starts their FY in May and uses the ending year denotation for it, so FY2023 Q1 is actually May - July 2022 and the number of livers they give out matches the time periods. Lazulight also debuted on May 2021 which matches when the NijiEN revenue shows up on the chart (FY2022 Q1). The huge boost in NijiEN profits coincide with Luxiem's debut.

How many of niji and holo supas in CN? Oh I guess counting NT and HK as chink only when looking at Niji supas. Not putting words in your mouth, but that’s what a lot of OTHER people do. I’ve seen enough NT and HK dollars, and almost all of them are positive supportive messages, but pol fags will use this

Isn't saying that they avoid personal drama pretty much a lie?

it's administration costs, it's a japanese company, they probably have tons of staff behind the scenes doing barely anything that need paying

Looked up Vox and he's around ~36%, and my favorite NijiEN girl is at around ~5%.
Oh, Holo definitely still has some CN support since I actually see some fans still around and a few fledgling clip channels but it's difficult to deny the huge CN fanbase for Luxiem based on the bili streams. Holo merch also doesn't ship to China and not many fans will actually make an effort to get merch they can't receive directly.

Are you referring to the Not Idol part? Probably.
Which is a bit hilarious with the current direction of the company.

And holoshills were calling me a dumbass who failed /biz/niss 101. That s literally just a pretty powerpoint slide for children who don't know what's even being talked about. Look how colorful and aesthetically pleasing it is. It's all carefully put together marketing spin based on cherrypicked data to push whatever agenda they want people to sign off on. Anyone who takes it at face value, especially without an independent audit to verify the validity of any and all numbers and claims, is unironically a tard.

as a publicly traded company, all of their financial information is public

>> No.33168940

There's a difference between information being made public and actually exploring/analyzing it for discrepancies. Same with source code. Just because it's public, that doesn't mean someone's actually gone through it. I'd be more interested in an audit report than the claims of any given company, especially when worrisome claims of them pulling an IPO scam appear to have some validity due to Salome's strange engagement patterns.

Reminds me of their last slide show presentation where they had to edit the NijiEN slide which said their growth was all from North America and edited to remove that claim.

Kinda feels like one of these slides you make to include cool other brands with you to make your shareholders and management feel good.
I also do one that mentions "Big Data" and "Deep Learning", that usually increases the budget you get.
