Report highlights
“The first half of the year was full of activity for us here in Nitro Games. We started the launch phase for our new game Autogun Heroes towards the end of the period. During this summer we’ve seen great initial results as we’ve started to ramp-up the game. These planned investments in the game launch resulted in increased costs during the period, as the revenue accumulation for the game is expected to increase during the second half of the year. Our B2B service business continued to provide us with a revenue baseline during the period. Our revenues grew 34% to 3,381 KEUR and our EBITDA improved 56% to -986 KEUR, compared to the first six months of last year. While we still made losses as a result of the planned investments in our games, we are as determined as ever to continue our step-by-step work towards profitability with our Games business now delivering increasing revenues.”
