Last year EN was 25% of the total. This year it's 15%. Proportionally speaking it's now half the value relative to JP that it was last year, and it doesn't look much better from a quarterly standpoint. EN has become well and truly negligible.

That's just the revenue. The branch is bigger and Nijisanji is doing more events, so branch expenses will most likely have increased (we don't know by how much, because Riku's accountants don't give us a breakdown of expenses or profit by branch, only revenue).

>> No.77955480

The numbers are what they are, and Nijisanji is hiding them the best they can, their financial people and accountants are quite good. I think the past hour or two has established that quite well. The question I haven't seen asking is though, how many graduations are they going to allow from the EN branch? If they are merging anyways, then the queue is pointless anyways and you might as well get it done and then get people to leave then. But what kind of incentive does Nijisanji have left though? The people not streaming seem like the most likely to go, Kotaka, Petra, Rosemi although Kotaka is probably for other reasons. I would have thought Scarle would be there too but she is streaming consistently without a schedule. But yeah, July's yearly investor meeting is going to be a bloodbath especially with the Japanese fund managers that invested for people's retirement funds in this dumb company.

Actually, from a shareholder's perspective, a decline in revenue is quite bad, even if it is not as bad as an outright loss. Shareholders care more about potential future growth than they do about immediate profit. That is why they propped up Telsa for years even though it spent a good chunk of time being unprofitable.
This mentality has its fair share of critics, but it is still arguably the dominant way of thinking among shareholders and stock traders.

You are correct. Their revenue is only declining for 15 straight months while expenses are climbing and now they're wasting nearly all their cash on a stock buyback instead of reinvesting it in the talents.

>> No.77966884

I wouldn't even say the people saying "that's it?" are sisters, people have a really bad habit of hyping themselves up to see the titanic sink and then getting butthurt when they realize these things are usually a "death by a thousand cuts" situation instead. anybody saying a 22% loss is less than they expected is retarded, yes, but not every retard sucks riku cock.

A revenue drop of -22% for NijiEN is a major loss when HoloEN was increasing their revenue. Nijisanji damage control included spending money on 3D debuts which did soften the blow. The big question is whether Riku will switch out EN management or if the yacht will keep ramming into icebergs and bleeding numbers.

Good job that revenue went up by a huge amount. Lets give the EN branch another couple of years to see if they can pull their weight or either cut them or put them on maintenance mode.

Doesn't seem good at all for EN, but as other anons have said, it's likely the EN will never go away to keep up the facade that Anycolor has serious plans to invest internationally.

I cannot support the folks at EN any more after all this insufferable drama, but this statement still rings true:
I hope whoever I like gets the fuck out, and whoever I dislike stays with Anycolor forever.

I like how -22% is being downplayed by the sisters, when on top of the -22% Anycolor is about to spend 40-50million USD in order to stabilise the share price caused by NijiEN fucking up in the 1st place.

Likewise, but they're gonna have to wait for their contracts to expire, or hope they get culled when the branch merger happens.
Or they can get fired, but Niji might be petty enough to take a "permanent stealth suspension until your contract expires" approach to meting out punishment.

That's not a misspelling, it's a conjugation of "to mete," as in "to mete out punishment" or "they will be meting out punishment"

neither can you retard, a quarter is 25%

>> No.77981889

A lot of anons seem to be overlooking the fact that the 22% is REVENUE (For laymen: That means their income before paying all their taxes and bills). And not actual net profit. They hid their EN operating costs by merging the JP and EN costs into a single number.

So for all we know EN could have already been in the red before all this went down. Given how the ID, KR, and IN branches were it wouldn't be surprising EN has been red this whole time. Going into the negative is expected par for the course when entering new markets in most industries.

NTA but both of you missed by about 3% so it is about the same margin of error, negligible even.

>> No.77983263

>>77982798
As a direct result of them losing 6 million, they've just spent about 1/2 their liquid assets in order to do a share buyback in order to stabilise their share price. That's just today. If you add in the buy back less than 12 months ago the picture gets worse

you guys hyped this up as the death of niji but it's the same as when cover releases a report form a slow quarter right after a big one with holofes and shit. meh.

>> No.77984091

>>77982798
I know you're trolling, but I think Cover is still a better investment even excluding all drama. Cover makes far more per-talent, and has fewer talents. That means many times lower chance of a controversy happening by virtue of sheer numbers alone -- and that's not even factoring the higher risk per person of Niji due to their "hands-off" shotgun approach to recruitment.

Niji's higher number of talents also means higher operating costs. Which means Niji either has to operate on far thinner profit margins, or they have to be far more exploitative of their talents. (The latter explains their much higher turnover rates)

That's way more than I was expecting, I was thinking it'd be closer to a 10-15% drop, I thought that all the last minute event spam they did would bring it back up to something more tolerable but that's almost a quarter of their last year's profit that just went fucking poof into the ether, and all because Elira and her pathetic little clique of bullies couldn't let well enough alone

and considering that they did push all that stuff, the real number of losses is probably way worse

>> No.77986634

>>77984506
Someone ran the numbers and if they didn't mass spam events for EN, the decline would've been around -35%.
So even with Niji pulling a hail mary (3D lives, two concerts), the EN branch still reported -22%.
Which, for any growth company, is disastrous. JP can only hold the line for so long.
The fact that even Riku is predicting only about 10% growth next year in total (for both JP and EN) is extremely grim.
