INCREASED SALES FOR THE QUARTER DEMONSTRATE ENVAR ENTERTAINMENTS STRONG POSITION IN THE OUTSOURCING MARKET
CEO Atey Ghailan comments:
The increased sales for the quarter demonstrate Envar Entertainment's strong position in the outsourcing market. With the first quarter of the year reaching net revenue of SEK 25,760 thousand, the customer Sony is the one that has increased the most in order volume in percentage terms, and overall, there has been a very strong inflow of orders from existing customers.
Within Envar Games, we have established an additional development team that we internally refer to as Envar Blue. We see a business opportunity in creating attractive game experiences for players looking for more varied experiences-more specifically, development projects that at the same time require smaller development teams. The Envar Blue team's mission is to launch indie titles within more limited development budgets, as a complement to Envar's production of larger titles such as Witchspire. Our newly recruited Game Director for Envar Blue is responsible for tailoring the team and leveraging close collaboration with other competencies within Envar Games and the Group as a whole.
