As announced on March 26, 2026, asmodee entered into an agreement to acquire board game publisher ATM Gaming SAS, with hit titles such as Speed Bac/Quickstop, Mouton Mouton and Pili Pili. The acquisition was completed today, April 8, 2026, following fulfillment of all closing conditions.
The purchase price, on a cash-free and debt-free basis, amounts to EUR 180 million of which EUR 120 million is to be paid in cash together with EUR 30 million in asmodee class B shares issued at closing, and EUR 30 million as a deferred payment to be paid in cash in June 2027. In connection with the acquisition, asmodee's board of directors has resolved to issue a total of 3,029,463 class B shares, constituting the portion of the purchase price to be settled in shares (the "Closing Consideration Shares"). The Closing Consideration Shares were issued at a subscription price of approximately EUR 9.90 per share, corresponding to the volume-weighted average price of asmodee's class B shares on Nasdaq Stockholm during the 30 trading days preceding the signing of the acquisition agreement.
ATM Gaming SAS will now operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of asmodee.
