>>85128002Some math on this:
Overall the direct variable cost of sales (which includes all payouts to vtubers, merch production and shipping, and event-related expenses) is about 45% of total revenue.
EN brought in 682 million yen last quarter, so if these expenses for EN are similar to the company overall (and why wouldn't they be, assuming they have the same revenue split and the same merch production process; they just need to avoid events that lose money like AX) that leaves 375 million yen to pay the office staff and outsourcing costs for artists etc.
For the company as a whole that was 1402 million yen, but EN is about 20% of the talents by headcount, so if the costs are directly proportional to that EN's share of the fixed costs is 280 million yen. So under these assumptions EN's breakeven point would be 509 million JPY per quarter.
Of course, there are a lot of assumptions here, and Anycolor can reduce the amount they spend on EN without fully cutting the cord like they did on ID and KR, though that also works against them "regaining the trust" of the EN market
