New Square Enix president Yosuke Matsuda will conduct a thorough review of the company as part of his new role. As explained in a recent briefing session (translated by Siliconera), Masuda plans on “reviewing all Square Enix duties, business and assets on a zero-based budgeting standpoint.”
Matsuda said that “due to the radical change of environment, I’d like to fundamentally review what works and what doesn’t work for our company, then cast all of our resources towards extending what makes us successful and thoroughly squeezing out what doesn’t.”
Matsuda is set to take over as president in June following current president Yoichi Wada, who announced last week that he’ll be stepping down. Wada’s resignation comes following a financial revision for Square Enix, which noted that the company “expects to incur extraordinary loss in the settlement of the accounts for its fiscal year ending March 31, 2013."
Matsuda concluded his briefing by commenting that “as far as a concrete plan on what to expect from us, I will further explain it on another briefing session in the near future, so I kindly ask for your patience. Thank you for your support.”
