I think this article is wrong unless reporting a loss of a bit over 41k in USD is news.

The PSU article cites this:

https://gamebiz.jp/news/388317

Which my browser translates to:

Sega's fiscal year ending March 2024 results show a 6.6 billion yen deficit due to European restructuring, and operating profit also falls 87% to 2.3 billion yen. "Yakuza 8" sells a million copies in the first week after its release.

[Emphasis mine]

So it looks like there is an off by 1000 error somewhere.

66億5000万円

yeah, the way of writing numbers can trip people up.

66 * 100,000,000 + 5,000 * 10,000 -> 6,650,000,000 JPY -> 41,340,682.60 USD (as of this morning)
