MAG Interactive AB (publ) Presents Interim Report Sep 2017 - Feb 2018


STOCKHOLM, April 18,2018 /PRNewswire/ -- "The number of daily active players during the quarter is up 74% compared to the same period previous year. With more than 10 million monthly active players and true evergreens like Quiz Duel and Ruzzle in the portfolio we have a fantastic and loyal player base to entertain for many years to come.

The game contribution is up 22% compared to last year but the marketing investments are lower than we would like and we are not pleased with the decrease in revenues that comes as a result of that. Even though we see a positive trend in marketing investments versus the previous reporting period we are still not happy with the overall volumes and it remains a focus area for the company.

After test launches in Australia, Canada and Sweden we are now preparing for a global launch of our next big game title, Word Domination. It is a unique game with big potential and a strong addition to our portfolio of word games. This will be our biggest launch since 2016 and we are very excited about the upcoming release."

SUMMARY OF THE PERIOD DECEMBER 2017 UNTIL FEBRUARY 2018
