Raport bieżący nr 2/2018

PlayWay S.A. has formally amended the shareholder agreement regarding the financing of CreativeForge Games, specifically concerning the production budget for the title Phantom Doctrine. This regulatory update, issued in early 2018, details a strategic adjustment to the maximum loan obligations provided by shareholders to the Warsaw-based developer. The amendment establishes a new financing ceiling of 7.65 million PLN, representing a significant reduction from the previously agreed-upon limit of 9 million PLN.

The downward revision of the loan requirement is driven by the stronger-than-anticipated commercial performance of the studio's previous title, Hard West. Higher revenue streams generated from the sales of Hard West provided CreativeForge Games with greater internal liquidity, thereby reducing the necessity for external shareholder debt to cover the development costs of Phantom Doctrine. This shift indicates a healthier cash flow position for the subsidiary than was originally forecasted in earlier 2016 and 2017 agreements.

This corporate action falls under the regulatory requirements for disclosing inside information within the Polish capital market. It highlights the financial relationship between PlayWay S.A. and its portfolio companies, illustrating how successful product lifecycles can directly impact the capital allocation and debt structures of upcoming projects. The scope of the disclosure is limited to the specific financial commitments between the shareholders and CreativeForge Games during the final stages of the game's production cycle.
