The company said third quarter operating profit reflected costs associated with participation in gamescom and other activities. It posted a net loss of 68.4 billion won, attributed to foreign exchange related non-operating losses, with total non-operating losses of 305.8 billion won.

Operating expenses rose 43.0 percent year over year to 746.4 billion won, which the company linked in part to the consolidation of ADK.

Cumulative revenue for the first nine months reached 3.633 trillion won, up 51 percent, and cumulative operating profit totaled 1.1975 trillion won, up 14 percent. The company said both were record highs for the first three quarters.
