Interim Report January – September 2024

“The challenges we face with a mature portfolio continue as we balance our top-line and profitability. At the same time, we continue to develop the potential in our new games pipeline and are optimistic about our future prospects,” said Vlad Suglobov, CEO of G5 Entertainment. “Revenue for the quarter was SEK 270 M and our gross margin rose to an all-time high of 68.8 percent from 68.1, thanks to an increasing amount of revenue coming from our direct-to-consumer channel, the G5 Store. Revenue through this channel grew 27 percent in USD terms over the past year and made-up 17 percent of our sales. EBIT was solid SEK 23 M, giving us an EBIT margin of 8.5 percent. At the end of the third quarter, G5 had a record high cash position of SEK 246 M, ensuring a solid foundation for future growth. During the year, we plan to work on about 30 game ideas, ultimately soft-launching 5-6 games. Out of these we expect to see at least one showing enough scalability to make it into Global Release stage. Looking ahead, we see substantial increase in revenue month-to-month from September to October for the first time since 2020, which is a welcome development that sets a positive tone to the beginning of the fourth quarter.”
