REVIEW OF THIRD QUARTER 2026 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenues

Online game revenues for the third quarter of 2026 were KRW 25,139 million (US$ 18,540 thousand), representing a 15.2% decrease QoQ from KRW 29,660 million and a 3.2% decrease YoY from KRW 25,968 million. The decrease QoQ was mainly attributable to decreased revenue from Ragnarok Online in Thailand. This decrease was partially offset by initial revenue from Ragnarok Zero: Global launched in Southeast Asia, Europe and Oceania on August 18, 2026. The decrease YoY was mainly due to decreased revenues from Ragnarok Online America Latina in Latin America and Ragnarok Online in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau. This decrease was partially offset by initial revenue from Ragnarok Zero: Global launched in Southeast Asia, Europe and Oceania on August 18, 2026.

Mobile game revenues were KRW 169,387 million (US$ 124,925 thousand) for the third quarter of 2026, representing a 31.7% increase QoQ from KRW 128,611 million and a 54.6% increase YoY from KRW 109,571 million. The increase QoQ was mainly attributable to initial revenues from Ragnarok: The New World launched in Southeast Asia except for Vietnam on July 16, 2026, Ragnarok M: Classic launched in Korea on July 16, 2026 and Ragnarok Origin Classic launched in North, Central and South America on July 23, 2026. Such increase was partially offset by decreased revenues from Ragnarok Origin Classic in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and Southeast Asia and Ragnarok: The New World in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau. The increase YoY was mainly due to initial revenues from Ragnarok: The New World launched in Southeast Asia except for Vietnam on July 16, 2026 and in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau on January 15, 2026 and Ragnarok Origin Classic launched in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and Southeast Asia on March 26, 2026. Such increase was partially offset by decreased revenues from Ragnarok M: Classic in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and Southeast Asia and Ragnarok: Twilight in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau.

Other revenues were KRW 2,620 million (US$ 1,932 thousand) for the third quarter of 2026, representing a 27.5% decrease QoQ from KRW 3,613 million and a 21.9% decrease YoY from KRW 3,355 million.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue was KRW 141,696 million (US$ 104,503 thousand) for the third quarter of 2026, representing a 29.4% increase QoQ from KRW 109,541 million and a 60.0% increase YoY from KRW 88,542 million. The increase QoQ was mainly due to initial commission paid for mobile game services related to Ragnarok: The New World launched in Southeast Asia except for Vietnam on July 16, 2026. The increase YoY was primarily due to initial commissions paid for mobile game services related to Ragnarok: The New World launched in Southeast Asia except for Vietnam on July 16, 2026 and in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau on January 15, 2026 and Ragnarok Origin Classic launched in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and Southeast Asia on March 26, 2026.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were KRW 26,722 million (US$ 19,708 thousand) for the third quarter of 2026, representing a 7.9% increase QoQ from KRW 24,761 million and an 8.1% decrease YoY from KRW 29,076 million. The increase QoQ was mainly due to increased advertising expenses for Ragnarok Zero: Global in Southeast Asia, Europe and Oceania. The decrease YoY was mainly due to decreased advertising expenses for Ragnarok Idle Adventure Plus in Korea and Global and Nobunaga's Ambition: The Road to the World in Japan.

Profit Before Income Tax Expense

Profit before income tax expense was KRW 27,684 million (US$ 20,416 thousand) for the third quarter of 2026 compared with profit before income tax expense of KRW 32,470 million for the second quarter of 2026 and profit before income tax expense of KRW 27,207 million for the third quarter of 2025.
