A significant investor in Square Enix has strongly criticized the company, going so far as to publish a detailed, 100-page report outlining what they see as major issues.
The shareholder raising concerns is 3D Investment Partners, a Singapore-based investment fund that has previously criticized Square Enix. They currently own about 14.36% of the company.
3D Investment Partners had announced plans to push for changes at Square Enix by sharing some major ideas with its leadership. But based on their recent moves, it’s obvious they’re still dissatisfied with the company’s performance.
This presentation urges other shareholders to join forces with 3D Investment Partners and start a productive conversation with Square Enix’s leadership.
Where is all this criticism originating? It’s widely known that Square Enix hasn’t been performing strongly financially for several years now.
Unlike companies like Capcom, which have consistently seen sales increase, Square Enix is struggling with slow game sales and rising development expenses. This has led to a string of underwhelming financial reports that are likely to concern investors.
3D Investment Partners believes the company is struggling due to poor performance in both its console and mobile game businesses. They also cite cancelled projects as a major issue, resulting in substantial financial losses.
Ultimately, the fund believes the core problems are due to weak management. They don’t have much faith in the current leadership team’s ability to fix things, even with their recent attempts to outline future plans, which 3D Investment Partners found unclear and unconvincing.
Although Square Enix is a large company and isn’t in immediate danger, this situation isn’t ideal. Public criticism like this could become a bigger issue if investors begin to publicly support one side or the other.
Square Enix is attempting to sell more games by releasing titles like Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on the Switch 2 and Xbox. However, it’s still unclear if these releases will actually improve the company’s overall profits.
What do you think of Square Enix currently? Do you agree with 3D Investment Partners’ concerns about the company? Is Square Enix being poorly managed? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
