SINGAPORE, Nov. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GCL Global Holdings Ltd (NASDAQ:GCL) ("GCL" or the "Company"), a leading provider of games and entertainment, today provided an update on management's expectations for financial results for the fiscal year 2026, ending March 31, 2026. The Company's anticipated results reflect its continued growth trajectory in the core consumer and gaming-adjacent verticals, underpinned by the integration of Ban Leong Technologies, including its established distribution footprint and the continued scaling of our digital publishing business.

FY 2026 Financial Outlook

Revenue is expected to exceed $240 million, an increase of $100 million over FY 2025.
Gross Profit is anticipated to exceed $30 million, an increase of $10 million over FY 2025.

"FY 2026 is a critical year for GCL as we continue to develop our key game IPs like Showa American Story and The Defiant, which we believe have blockbuster potential in FY 2027 and beyond," said Sebastian Toke, Group CEO of GCL. "Over the past several months, we've been focused on assembling the core components of a full-service gaming ecosystem spanning from publishing, distribution, hardware, to original IP creation. Bringing these capabilities together is an essential step toward unlocking the long-term value of our platform. The integration of Ban Leong into GCL Group is proceeding well and we expect to see synergies from the combination of game IP with a full suite of gaming hardware and peripherals."

"Asian gaming studios are producing a new wave of highly original potential triple-A titles with global appeal. With our proven track record in game publishing and distribution, GCL is well-positioned to leverage this macro trend. GCL is actively working on entering into new publishing arrangements and potential investments in gaming studios to strengthen our pipeline of high potential IPs. We believe these efforts will position us for meaningful, sustainable growth as these assets begin to operate as a unified engine."

The Company plans to release its financial results for the first half of FY2026 in December and will host an investor conference call in the morning of the release.
