COMMENTS BY THE CEO
As is often the case, the third quarter is calmer in terms of releases and thus revenue, although we had fantastic content such as Roads to Power to Crusader Kings III in the period. However, this does not mean that we have taken it easy in any way. Behind the scenes we've been going at full speed developing content for our core games, progressing our projects and continuing to refine our operations in accordance with our established strategy.
Recently, we've put a lot of energy into strengthening the publishing arm, defining our process for working with third-party game development, and continuing to focus our internal studios. The aim has been to create clear mandates, more explicit responsibility and to ensure the quality of the games.
