Media and Games Invest plans to relocate the company's registered office to Luxembourg and announces new game-launches for the coming quarters

DJ Media and Games Invest: plans to relocate the company's registered office to Luxembourg and announces new game-launches for the coming quarters

MGI plans to relocate the company's registered office to Luxembourg and 
                         announces new game-launches for the coming quarters 
 
   Media and Games Invest Group ("MGI" or the "Company", ISIN: MT0000580101; 
      Ticker M8G; Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market and Scale Segment 
 Frankfurt Stock Exchange) plans to relocate its domicile to Luxembourg. The 
       Board of Directors is convinced that this is the logical next step to 
support further reputation and growth of MGI and has decided to initiate all 
necessary steps for the relocation. Due to the high complexity of relocating 
         the registered office of a listed company, the Board is targeting a 
 relocation as of January 1, 2022. The final decision on the relocation will 
    be made by the shareholders in a shareholders meeting. The relocation is 
 based on the request of several investors and also potential investors that 
  have an issue with Malta, the current jurisdiction of the company. As such 
       the board expects that a relocation will open MGI to broader investor 
   groups, that are currently not allowed to invest in Maltese companies and 
   also help the reputation of MGI in general. As a first step, the Board of 
       Directors has decided to propose to the shareholders in a shareholder 
meeting to be convened at short notice to change the current legal form of a 
   Public Limited Liability Company ("plc") into that of a Societas Europaea 
                                                                     ("SE"). 
 
     "Our experience with Malta is positive and we have seen many governance 
changes in Malta, however, many investors still have an issue with Malta. We 
   even encountered potential investors that told us that they cannot invest 
 into MGI as their statutes don't allow investments in Maltese companies. As 
  we are a global company and also want to continue to grow internationally, 
   we are not tied to Malta and can relocate. We selected Luxembourg being a 
        very international accepted domicile, as well as having an excellent 
 reputation on the capital market while also enabling us to keep most of our 
      legal structures and governance in place." says Remco Westermann, CEO. 
 
As announced in the ad-hoc it was also decided in line with the objective to 
   further professionalize and profitably grow MGI to enable the creation of 
          B-shares for future capital increases, which has together with the 
     relocation been approved by the shareholders of MGI. Furthermore it was 
  decided to launch an ESOP program, to ensure a stronger position of MGI in 
                   the labor market, for hiring and retaining key employees. 
 
       "We are looking forward to 2021 with a strong pipeline of substantial 
   content updates for our games portfolio as well as additional launches of 
   newly licensed games combined with executing further M&A growth. After an 
  outstanding 2020 with exceptional growth, MGI started strong into 2021 and 
  signed several new game licenses with further focus on mobile games. There 
  are especially two mobile game launches that we are planning for the first 
   half year of 2021 that we would like to emphasize." says Remco Westermann 
                                                                        CEO. 
 
  "Golf Champions - Swing of Glory": MGI's gaming segment consolidated under 
    the roof of gamigo has acquired the worldwide development and publishing 
        rights of the mobile game "Golf Champions - Swing of Glory" from top 
 Canadian developer Behavior Interactive (among others also the developer of 
Dead by Daylight). Golf Champions is a competitive, free-to-play mobile game 
          in which players compete in leagues. Players unlock different golf 
 characters and can improve their skills as they compete against each other. 
         In the end, the best golfers will meet in the strongest league. The 
     monetization is based on in-game item sales and in-game advertising, in 
                                    close cooperation with MGI's Media Unit. 
 
      "Heroes of Twilight": gamigo has also acquired the worldwide licensing 
        rights for the mobile game "Heroes of Twilight". The competitive and 
       turn-based role-play game is characterized by a dynamic day and night 
 change, which means that the characters and the game environment can change 
        unexpectedly at any time. The free-to-play game is the sequel to the 
       multiple award-winning Little Lords of Twilight and thus has a strong 
                                                           existing fanbase.
