Rejestracja połączenia spółki zależnej

PlayWay S.A. has formally announced the legal registration of a merger involving its subsidiary, 3R Studio Mobile sp. z o.o., and the acquiring entity, Hubstyle S.A. The transaction was officially recorded on December 18, 2020, by the District Court for the Capital City of Warsaw. This corporate restructuring was executed under the Polish Commercial Companies Code through a merger by acquisition, resulting in the transfer of all assets from the subsidiary to the acquiring company via universal succession. As a direct consequence of this consolidation, Hubstyle S.A. increased its share capital through the issuance of new shares. These shares were distributed to the shareholders of the acquired subsidiary, including PlayWay S.A., in exchange for their existing holdings. This strategic move effectively transitions PlayWay’s interest in 3R Studio Mobile into a stake within the newly expanded capital structure of Hubstyle S.A. The scope of this action is centered on the Polish domestic market and pertains specifically to the corporate governance and capital structure of entities within the PlayWay capital group. By finalizing this registration, the companies have completed the legal requirements necessary to integrate their operations and financial reporting. This disclosure serves to update stakeholders on the finalization of the merger process previously initiated earlier in the month, ensuring transparency regarding the issuer's subsidiary portfolio and asset distribution.

PlayWay S.A. announced the establishment of a new subsidiary, Shift Games Spółka Akcyjna, headquartered in Warsaw, on December 18, 2020. This strategic move expands the PlayWay Group’s portfolio through a collaborative corporate structure involving both internal management and external developers.

The ownership structure positions PlayWay S.A. as the majority shareholder, holding 700,000 Series A shares, which represents 68.63% of the company’s share capital. Other entities, including game developers, hold 300,000 Series A shares, accounting for 29.41% of the equity. An external investor contributed 400,000 PLN for 20,000 Series B shares, representing a 1.96% stake but indicating a significantly higher valuation per share for the Series B round compared to the initial nominal value. Shift Games begins operations with an existing pipeline of intellectual property. The founders have contributed the title Revolution: Path of a Weaponsmith, which is currently in production, along with two additional projects in the pre-production phase. This formation follows PlayWay’s established business model of creating specialized satellite studios to diversify its development capabilities and manage specific game titles under dedicated management teams. Future plans for the subsidiary include the imminent presentation of additional titles beyond the initial three projects identified at the time of incorporation.

Raport Bieżący Nr 6/2020

PCF Group S.A. successfully concluded its public offering in December 2020, marking a significant step toward its listing on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The offering comprised two equal parts: the subscription of 2,062,512 newly issued Series B shares and the sale of 2,062,512 existing Series A shares by twenty-five current shareholders. This dual structure allowed the company to raise fresh capital while providing liquidity for existing investors. The offering attracted massive interest, particularly from individual investors. In the retail tranche, demand reached over 40.8 million shares against an allocation of only 618,750, resulting in a high reduction rate of 98.486%. Institutional investors subscribed to the remaining new shares and all the sale shares, while a dedicated employee tranche was fully satisfied without reduction. Pricing varied by segment: individual investors paid 46.00 PLN per share, employees received a discounted rate of 41.40 PLN, and institutional investors paid 50.00 PLN. The total value of the new share issuance reached approximately 100.3 million PLN, while the sale of existing shares totaled 103.1 million PLN. Approximately 18,000 individual investors participated in the process alongside 59 employees and nearly 300 institutional entities. All shares were acquired through cash contributions. While the subscription and allocation phases are complete, final costs related to the prospectus, advisory, and promotion will be detailed in a subsequent report once all invoices are processed. This offering underscores strong market confidence in the Polish game development sector during the late 2020 period.

PCF Group S.A., a prominent Polish game development studio, announced the formal admission of its Series A and Series B shares, along with rights to Series B shares, to trading on the regulated main market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange. This regulatory milestone follows resolution number 981/2020 passed by the Management Board of the Warsaw Stock Exchange on December 15, 2020. The admission encompasses a significant volume of securities, including over 27.5 million Series A shares and approximately 2.06 million Series B shares, each carrying a nominal value of 0.02 PLN. The scope of the admission includes 2,062,512 ordinary bearer Series A shares and an additional 25,437,488 Series A shares, with the latter contingent upon their conversion into ordinary bearer shares. Furthermore, the exchange approved the listing of 2,062,512 ordinary bearer Series B shares and an equivalent number of rights to Series B shares. The admission of the Series B shares is specifically subject to the formal registration of the company’s share capital increase resulting from the issuance of these shares. This administrative action represents a critical step in the company's transition to a publicly traded entity on the Polish capital market. By securing these approvals, the developer established the legal framework necessary for its securities to be traded by institutional and individual investors on the primary exchange. The resolution became effective immediately upon its adoption, marking the completion of the necessary exchange-level authorizations for the company's market debut in late 2020.

Raport EBI nr 1 /2020

This corporate governance report, issued by PCF Group S.A. on December 17, 2020, outlines the specific principles of the Best Practice for GPW Listed Companies 2016 that the company does not fully apply. The document serves as a formal disclosure required by the Warsaw Stock Exchange regulations, providing transparency regarding the company’s internal management structures and operational deviations from standard governance norms during its transition to a publicly traded entity. The scope of the report covers fifteen specific governance principles across various categories, including disclosure policies, board structures, and shareholder relations. Key findings reveal that several non-compliance issues stem from the company’s current organizational scale. For instance, the company cannot provide a functional division of responsibilities among board members because the Management Board currently consists of a single person. Similarly, the company lacks a formalized diversity policy, opting instead to prioritize professional qualifications and experience over non-meritocratic criteria like age or gender to maintain flexibility during its rapid growth phase. Financial reporting and transparency represent another area of deviation. The company explains that it cannot provide five years of comparable financial data in a processable format because it transitioned from the Polish Accounting Act to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in 2018. Regarding shareholder meetings, the company does not provide universal real-time broadcasts or video recordings, citing a lack of technical infrastructure, high costs, and a lack of prior shareholder interest. The report also notes structural absences, such as the lack of dedicated internal units for risk management, audit, and compliance, with these duties currently handled directly by the Management Board. While the company maintains a nominal share value of 0.02 PLN—below the recommended 0.50 PLN threshold—management concludes this does not threaten valuation reliability as the market price remains significantly higher. The tone is analytical and forward-looking, with the company declaring intentions to adopt several of these principles as its board expands or as shareholders express specific needs.

PCF Group S.A., a prominent Polish video game developer known for its People Can Fly studio, officially transitioned to a publicly traded entity on the Warsaw Stock Exchange in December 2020. This regulatory announcement details the formal introduction of the company’s securities to the main market, marking a significant milestone in its corporate financing and expansion strategy. The action follows the approval of resolutions by the Management Board of the Warsaw Stock Exchange, which facilitated the commencement of trading for both existing shares and rights to new shares. The scope of the market entry includes 27,500,000 Series A ordinary bearer shares, each carrying a nominal value of 0.02 PLN. These shares were assigned the ISIN code PLPCFGR00010 and began trading under the short name PCFGROUP with the ticker PCF. Additionally, the company introduced 2,062,512 rights to Series B ordinary bearer shares, also valued at 0.02 PLN each.

Both classes of securities were admitted to the continuous trading system on the regulated primary market. The first day of trading for these securities was established as December 18, 2020.

The legal basis for this disclosure rests on Polish financial regulations regarding current and periodic information provided by securities issuers, ensuring transparency for investors during the initial public offering process.

PCF Group S.A. maintains a framework of corporate governance that aligns with the majority of the Best Practice of GPW Listed Companies 2016, though it maintains several strategic deviations rooted in its organizational structure and recent transition to public markets. As of late 2020, the company’s governance model is characterized by a single-member Management Board, which precludes a formal division of responsibilities and centralizes risk management, compliance, and internal audit functions. Rather than establishing dedicated internal units for these oversight roles, the company relies on the direct supervision of the Management Board and the Audit Committee to ensure operational integrity. A significant area of non-compliance involves the absence of a formalized diversity policy. The company prioritizes merit-based recruitment and professional qualifications over specific gender or age targets for its governing bodies. Furthermore, technical and historical limitations impact transparency; the company does not provide real-time public broadcasts of General Meetings or a five-year historical financial data set in a processable format, citing its recent adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards as the primary cause for the latter. Regarding shareholder rights and executive compensation, the company adheres to statutory guidelines but bypasses certain optional recommendations. Notable exceptions include a share nominal value of 0.02 PLN, which is significantly lower than the recommended 0.50 PLN, and the lack of a dedicated compensation committee. While a formal remuneration policy is in place, stock-based incentives currently lack a minimum two-year vesting period. Despite these omissions, the company maintains standard protocols for managing conflicts of interest and ensures that significant related-party transactions follow established legal requirements, even in the absence of specific internal bylaws requiring additional Supervisory Board approval.

Statement on Corporate Governance Principles in PCF Group S.A. 2020

Following its debut on the Warsaw Stock Exchange in December 2020, PCF Group S.A. established a corporate governance framework aligned with the Best Practice for GPW Listed Companies 2016, while identifying specific deviations necessitated by its organizational structure. The company’s governance model is characterized by a high degree of centralization, featuring a one-person Management Board led by CEO Sebastian Wojciechowski. This structure resulted in several non-compliance areas during the 2020 fiscal year, including the absence of a formalized diversity policy and the lack of a management responsibility map. Furthermore, the company opted not to maintain separate internal units for risk management or internal audit, instead consolidating these oversight responsibilities within the Management Board and a newly established internal finance department. Control of the company remains concentrated among a core group of founding shareholders who held 76.60% of voting rights at the end of 2020. This concentration is reinforced by specific personal rights granted through company statutes, which allow the founding group to appoint the majority of the Supervisory Board and the Chairman, provided they maintain a 40% voting threshold. Sebastian Wojciechowski retains the personal right to appoint the CEO as long as his individual voting share remains at least 25%. While share transfers are not statutorily restricted, significant lock-up agreements were in place for key shareholders and employees following the initial public offering, extending up to four years for certain share series. Financial oversight is managed through a Supervisory Board and a dedicated Audit Committee, which monitors financial reporting and auditor independence. In 2020, Grant Thornton served as the company’s auditor, providing no non-audit services to ensure objective reporting. To address potential conflicts of interest arising from the dual roles of certain Supervisory Board members who also served as directors within the gaming studio, the company implemented composition changes in early 2021. As the organization matures, there is an expressed intent to adopt more formalized governance practices, including expanded financial data history and more sophisticated internal control schemes.

PCF Group S.A., a prominent Polish game development studio known for its People Can Fly brand, finalized critical regulatory steps for its transition to a publicly traded entity on the Warsaw Stock Exchange in December 2020. The primary objective of these actions was the formal registration of company shares and share rights within the National Depository for Securities (KDPW). This process is a fundamental requirement for the dematerialization of securities, enabling them to be traded on a regulated market. The registration involved several distinct tranches of securities. Initially, KDPW registered 2,062,512 Series A ordinary bearer shares with a nominal value of 0.02 PLN each under the ISIN code PLPCFGR00010, effective December 11, 2020. Subsequently, the depository issued a conditional registration for an additional 25,437,488 Series A shares and 2,062,512 rights to Series B ordinary bearer shares. These conditional registrations were predicated on the formal admission of these securities to trading on the regulated market. These administrative milestones occurred during a pivotal period for the Polish gaming industry, as PCF Group sought to capitalize on investor interest through its initial public offering. By securing these registrations, the company ensured the necessary technical and legal infrastructure was in place for its market debut. The scope of these activities was limited to the Polish capital market regulatory framework, specifically adhering to the requirements set forth by the Ministry of Finance regarding current and periodic information provided by issuers of securities. This formalization allowed for the eventual conversion of share rights into final shares following the completion of the offering process.
