Raport bieżący nr 11/2021Ujawnienie opóźnionej informacji poufnej o zawarciu przez PCF Group S.A. listu intencyjnego dotyczącego przejęcia zespołu deweloperskiego Phosphor Games, LLC

The report discloses that PCF Group S.A., a Warsaw‑based holding, entered into an intention letter on 31 March 2021 to acquire the development team of Phosphor Games, LLC, a Chicago‑based studio. The transaction is subject to an exclusive negotiation period until 30 April 2021 and involves a loan of USD 5 million to the group’s subsidiary People Can Fly U.S., LLC, with LIBOR plus 2 % interest over ten years. The loan is secured by the subsidiary’s intellectual property and is intended to fund the acquisition of Phosphor Games’ team. The report clarifies that signing the intention letter and initiating negotiations does not guarantee completion of the acquisition, noting potential risks to negotiation outcomes.

The disclosure was delayed until 23 April 2021 in accordance with Article 17(4) of the EU Market Abuse Regulation (MAR). Management justified the delay by citing legal and commercial considerations: premature disclosure could jeopardise negotiation dynamics, affect transaction terms, or mislead the market. The report outlines that confidentiality was maintained through a controlled list of personnel with access to the information, updated per MAR requirements. Upon publication, PCF Group S.A. will notify the Polish Financial Supervision Authority of the delay and its compliance with MAR provisions.

The scope covers a single acquisition transaction involving U.S. entities, with financial terms specified in USD and interest linked to LIBOR. The methodology is a regulatory compliance disclosure, referencing MAR articles and European Securities and Markets Authority guidance on delayed information release.
