The report announces that PCF Group S.A. entered into an investment agreement with Square Enix Limited on 29 August 2021, formalizing the issuance of subscription warrants and related capital‑raising activities. The agreement stipulates that PCF will offer up to 1,555,922 warrants, each convertible into one Series C ordinary share, in up to six tranches linked to revenue milestones from contracts with Square Enix. Each tranche is released once cumulative contract revenue reaches a 45‑million‑PLN threshold, with the final tranche capped by 30 September 2024. The number of warrants per tranche is calculated as the ratio of 4.5 million PLN to the final share price offered in the public offering, ensuring a proportional allocation relative to revenue performance.

Square Enix may exercise its conversion rights after the fourth tranche and subsequently with each additional tranche, subject to a 31 December 2025 expiry. The agreement allows for accelerated tranching or conversion in events such as a change of control or delisting from the Warsaw Stock Exchange. Square Enix also retains an opt‑out clause, enabling it to relinquish conversion rights in exchange for compensation if the parties decide against further investment.

As of the report date, PCF’s revenue from Square Enix contracts exceeded 90 million PLN, triggering the obligation to offer two warrant tranches. The potential conversion of these warrants would represent roughly 1.8 % of PCF’s share capital, indicating a modest dilution impact. The agreement concludes prior negotiations that began with an initial memorandum of understanding on 31 July 2020, thereby formalizing the terms outlined in PCF’s prospectus.

The report announces that on 13 December 2021 PCF Group S.A., a Warsaw‑based company, entered into a production and publishing agreement with Incuvo S.A. of Katowice. The contract focuses on adapting a title from the People Can Fly portfolio for all major virtual‑reality platforms, including code adjustments to meet VR hardware specifications. PCF Group will finance the entire VR production through milestone payments tied to key development stages, with contract terms aligned to market standards for similar agreements. Upon completion and launch of the VR game, Incuvo will receive royalties contingent on sales revenue that covers PCF Group’s production, marketing, and distribution costs; the royalty rate depends on the defined sales thresholds. The game’s release is targeted for late 2023. No special contractual clauses or penalty provisions deviate from common practice for this type of agreement, ensuring standard industry compliance.

The report discloses that PCF Group S.A., a Warsaw‑based company, entered into a non‑binding letter of intent on 28 October 2021 with OÜ Blite Fund, an Estonian shareholder of Incuvo S.A., a Katowice‑based virtual reality game developer. The intent is to acquire between 50 % + 1 share and 53 % of Incuvo’s shares, including at least 49.01 % from OÜ Blite Fund. Negotiations for a definitive investment agreement are to commence under the terms outlined in the letter, with an exclusive negotiation period lasting until 8 December 2021. The report explains that the disclosure of this confidential information was delayed until 13 December 2021, citing Article 17(4) of the EU Market Abuse Regulation (MAR). The board justified the delay by arguing that immediate disclosure could jeopardise ongoing negotiations, risk adverse third‑party reactions, and potentially distort market perception of the transaction’s likelihood. The board ensured confidentiality through an access list compliant with MAR Article 18 and pledged to notify the Polish Financial Supervision Authority of the delay. The disclosure clarifies that signing the letter and initiating negotiations does not guarantee a completed share purchase. This communication covers a single transaction involving PCF Group S.A., OÜ Blite Fund, and Incuvo S.A. in the European gaming sector, with a focus on virtual reality titles. The methodology is purely regulatory compliance reporting, based on internal board decisions and MAR provisions.

PCF Group S.A., headquartered in Warsaw, completed the acquisition of 7,143,900 shares of Incuvo S.A. on 13 December 2021, representing 50.01 % of Incuvo’s share capital and voting rights. The transaction was executed under EU market‑abuse regulation, with the purchase price set at PLN 19,995,776.00 and an additional payment clause that may add up to PLN 11,595,725.00 based on the profitability of Incuvo’s VR title “Green Hell VR” and its Metacritic rating during a specified reference period. Incuvo specializes in virtual‑reality game development and porting third‑party titles to VR platforms.

The agreement includes customary representations, warranties, non‑competition restrictions for twelve months post‑closing, and liability provisions. Concurrently, PCF entered into transfer agreements with Incuvo’s shareholders Andrzej Wychowń and Radomir Kucharski, imposing sale restrictions on their shares and mandating continued board participation while prohibiting competitive activities until 31 December 2024.

This acquisition aligns with PCF Group’s strategic expansion into video‑game production, aiming to strengthen the group’s capabilities in emerging sectors. The transaction covers Poland and involves the NewConnect market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange, reflecting a focused geographic scope within the European VR gaming industry.

The report informs that on 30 June 2022 Square Enix Limited (SQEX) exercised its right to acquire the fourth tranche of 90,000 subscription warrants (Series A4) issued by PCF Group S.A. Each warrant entitles SQEX to purchase one ordinary Series C share at an issue price of 50 PLN, matching the final public offering price approved by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority on 25 November 2020. The issuance of this tranche was triggered by PCF’s revenue from contracts with SQEX exceeding 180 million PLN.

Under the investment agreement, SQEX may exercise its option to acquire Series C shares for each tranche received, up to a maximum of six tranches. By the date of this report, SQEX had accumulated 360 000 warrants across four tranches, allowing the purchase of an equivalent number of Series C shares. This represents roughly 1.2 % of PCF’s share capital and confers the same proportion of voting rights at general meetings. The company estimates that, if all six tranches were exercised, SQEX could ultimately acquire about 1.8 % of the share capital.

The warrants can be exercised until 31 December 2025. PCF currently lacks information on SQEX’s intentions regarding the exercise of these rights. The report is dated 30 June 2022 and follows a prior disclosure (report no. 40/2021) concerning the initial investment agreement between PCF and SQEX.

The report announces that on October 1, 2022, People Can Fly U.S., LLC and its parent PCF Group S.A. entered into a termination agreement with Take‑Two Interactive Software, Inc., ending the 2020 production and publishing contract for Project Dagger. The termination agreement specifies how financial obligations will be settled depending on the eventual release model of the title. If Project Dagger is released through self‑publishing by People Can Fly U.S., the company will pay royalties to Take‑Two on a quarterly basis until cumulative payments equal a predetermined repayment amount of $20 million. If the game is released with a new publisher, People Can Fly U.S. will repay the same $20 million in two equal installments due six and twelve months after launch. No repayment is required if the game never reaches commercial release, regardless of model.

The agreement also confirms that Take‑Two did not exercise its option to acquire intellectual property rights under the original contract, and that the license granted to Take‑Two has expired. Consequently, People Can Fly U.S. retains exclusive ownership of Project Dagger’s intellectual property. Standard termination provisions accompany the agreement, covering general legal and procedural matters. The report covers a single geographic jurisdiction—both parties are headquartered in New York, USA—and pertains exclusively to the Project Dagger title within the video‑game development and publishing sector. No survey or external data sources are cited; the document is a straightforward corporate disclosure of contractual termination and financial settlement terms.

The report announces that PCF Group S.A., a Warsaw‑based company, has decided to increase its capital participation in its subsidiary Incuvo S.A., a Katowice‑based game developer. On 27 January 2023, the board authorized the issuance of 136,104 new ordinary shares (Series E) at an emission price of PLN 46.13 each, totaling PLN 6,278,477.52. These shares represent approximately 0.45 % of PCF’s share capital and voting rights, and will be fully subscribed by Incuvo’s CEO Andrzej Wychowańcy (87,820 shares) and Vice‑Chairman Radomir Kucharski (48,284 shares). In exchange, the two executives will transfer 1,128,450 Incuvo shares (≈7.90 % of Incuvo’s capital) and 620,428 Incuvo shares (≈4.34 % of Incuvo’s capital) to PCF, thereby raising PCF’s stake in Incuvo from 50.01 % to roughly 62.25 % of both capital and voting rights.

The emission price was calculated using a six‑month average market price of PCF shares (1 June–30 November 2022) and correlated with a fair‑value assessment of Incuvo’s shares by an external auditor. The transaction aligns with PCF Group’s strategy to diversify its game portfolio, expand into virtual reality leveraging Incuvo’s expertise, and enhance publishing capabilities.

Lock‑up restrictions apply to the new shares until the end of December 2024, mirroring conditions from PCF’s 2020 public offering. The board has requested supervisory approval for the pricing, waiver of pre‑emptive rights, and full allocation to the two executives. Further updates will be provided as required by law.

The update presents the revised growth strategy for PCF Group S.A. and its People Can Fly holding group, adopted by the board on 31 January 2023. The strategy had first been disclosed in the company’s prospectus approved by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority on 25 November 2020 and subsequently updated in a 43/2021 interim report dated 27 September 2021. The current update is attached to the present filing and outlines new assumptions, objectives, and operational priorities for both the parent company and its subsidiaries.

Key points include a renewed focus on expanding market presence, enhancing product development pipelines, and strengthening financial performance through cost optimisation and capital allocation. The strategy also highlights commitments to sustainability initiatives, digital transformation, and talent development across the group’s portfolio. While specific financial targets are not disclosed in this summary, the document stresses alignment with regulatory frameworks and adherence to EU prospectus regulations for any forthcoming equity offerings.

The update applies exclusively within the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, targeting qualified investors and institutional participants. It is governed by EU Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 on prospectuses and related directives, ensuring compliance with disclosure obligations for non‑public offerings. The filing clarifies that it does not constitute a public offer, contains no promotional content for new shares, and is restricted from distribution in jurisdictions such as the United States, Australia, Canada, Japan, or South Africa. The document also includes standard legal and risk disclosures, emphasizing that forward‑looking statements are subject to uncertainty and should not be relied upon as definitive forecasts.

The report discloses that PCF Group S.A.’s board initiated negotiations on 19 March 2023 with Krafton, Inc. or its affiliated entity to acquire shares in a capital increase approved by an extraordinary general meeting on 28 February 2023. The proposed investment would grant Krafton a 10 % stake in the post‑issuance capital, and may include future collaboration on specific games. The board delayed public disclosure until 28 March to avoid adverse impacts on negotiation dynamics and potential market misinterpretation, citing MAR Regulation Article 17(4) and EU‑FCA guidance. The disclosure explains that the negotiations do not guarantee a completed transaction, and outlines risk factors such as uncertainty of deal completion and market reaction. The document is restricted to qualified investors within the EU‑EAA, UK, and certain US entities under Regulation S or Rule 144A; it contains no prospectus and is not a public offer. Methodologically, the report relies on internal board decisions and regulatory compliance checks; no external survey or statistical data are presented. The scope is limited to Poland, with implications for capital structure and potential strategic partnership in the gaming sector. The report concludes that any investment decisions must be based on independent research, as the information is not a recommendation or solicitation.

The document announces that Krafton, Inc. has entered into an investment agreement to acquire shares of PCF Group S.A. under a capital increase authorized by the extraordinary general meeting, allowing up to 5 853 941 new ordinary shares of series F at a nominal value of PLN 0.02 each. The agreement obligates Krafton to purchase shares representing 10 % of the company’s capital and voting rights at an issue price of PLN 40.20 per share, with the company guaranteeing allocation upon fulfillment of Krafton’s subscription commitment. The investment contract grants Krafton rights of first negotiation and first refusal on future projects such as Project Victoria or Project Bifrost if released outside a self‑publishing model, and includes anti‑dilution, tag‑along, and drag‑along provisions. Both parties have executed lock‑up agreements lasting until 28 March 2024 and standard representations, warranties, and indemnity clauses. The agreement is governed by Polish law, has a ten‑year term with automatic renewal provisions, and allows Krafton to terminate under specific circumstances such as cancellation of the offer or failure to meet subscription deadlines; no penalties are stipulated. The report, prepared under EU Regulation MAR, is strictly informational and restricted to qualified investors within the European Economic Area, excluding public distribution in jurisdictions such as the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, and South Africa. It contains forward‑looking statements subject to risks and uncertainties, and disclaims any investment recommendation or guarantee.

The report announces that on 14 June 2023, Krafton, Inc. and PCF Group S.A., together with key shareholder Sebastian Wojciechowski, entered into a side‑letter to the investment agreement dated 28 March 2023. The side‑letter stipulates that if PCF Group increases its share capital by issuing up to 2 510 904 new shares before 31 December 2023, Krafton will have the right of first refusal to subscribe for shares that would bring its total holdings to 10 % of the capital and voting rights. The subscription price is fixed at PLN 40.20 per share, independent of the price set for other investors. The agreement does not obligate Krafton to purchase any shares, and the allocation of new shares to other investors remains unaffected.

The document is a regulatory disclosure under EU Regulation 596/2014 and Polish securities law, intended solely for informational purposes. It contains extensive legal caveats restricting distribution outside the European Economic Area and prohibiting any promotional use of the information. The report clarifies that it is not an offer, does not constitute a prospectus, and is limited to qualified investors in the EU, UK, or U.S. under Rule 144A.

The disclosure emphasizes that no manager or affiliated party assumes liability for the accuracy of the information, and any investment decisions must rely on independently verified data.

The report announces that PCF Group S.A., headquartered in Warsaw, entered into a non‑binding Letter of Intent on 17 June 2023 with a prominent U.S. entertainment company to develop a virtual‑reality action/combat video game under the code name “Dolphin.” The intent is to negotiate a production agreement with a publisher or its affiliate, under which PCF will act as a work‑for‑hire developer. The publisher’s total budget for the project is estimated between 16 million and 24 million USD, with intellectual property rights ultimately belonging to the publisher within contractual limits. Development is projected to conclude in 2025, with release planned for current and future leading VR hardware platforms. The report clarifies that signing the Letter of Intent does not guarantee a final production contract, and further details will be disclosed in a separate public update. The scope covers the U.S. entertainment partner and global VR platforms, focusing on action/combat gameplay. No survey or statistical methodology is cited; the information derives from corporate governance announcements and contractual estimates.

The report announces that on 21 August 2023, PCF Group S.A. entered into an agreement with OÜ Blite Fund, a limited liability company based in Tallinn, Estonia. Under the settlement, PCF Group S.A. committed to pay Blite Fund 2 050 000,00 złoty as an additional payment for the purchase price of 7 143 900 shares of Incuvo S.A., a company headquartered in Katowice. These shares were originally acquired by PCF Group S.A. through a share sale agreement dated 13 December 2021 between the two parties.

The additional payment represents a full settlement of all mutual claims arising from or related to the share sale agreement. The amount will be recorded in PCF Group S.A.’s income statement for the second quarter of 2023. The settlement is made pursuant to Article 17(1) of the MAR regulation, and it follows a prior interim report dated 13 December 2021. The document provides no further methodological details, as it is a straightforward disclosure of the contractual resolution and its financial impact on the company’s quarterly results.

The report informs stakeholders that the production agreement negotiations for the virtual‑reality action/combat game code‑named “Dolphin” have been indefinitely suspended. The PCF Group S.A., headquartered in Warsaw, had previously entered a non‑binding letter of intent with a prominent U.S. entertainment company on 17 June 2023 to develop the game for VR platforms. On 22 September 2023, the publisher notified the company that work on the project would be halted permanently. Informal discussions suggest the decision is linked to ongoing industry strikes in the United States, creating uncertainty within the entertainment sector. Consequently, all negotiations regarding the production agreement have been put on hold. The report covers a single geographic region—Poland and the United States—and focuses exclusively on the video‑game development segment, specifically virtual reality action titles. No survey or statistical methodology is employed; the information is based on direct communication between company representatives and the publisher. The primary conclusion is that external labor disputes have disrupted the partnership, leading to a suspension of contractual negotiations and project development.

PCF Group S.A. has finalized the financial settlement and contractual dissolution regarding the production of Bulletstorm VR. Following the game’s release on January 18, 2024, the publisher and its subsidiary, Incuvo S.A., reached an agreement to settle all remaining production milestones. As part of this financial reconciliation, PCF Group charged Incuvo 871,157.59 PLN to cover development and quality assurance costs incurred during the project’s lifecycle.

The decision to terminate the production-publishing agreement, effective January 19, 2024, stems directly from the unsatisfactory commercial performance of the title upon its launch. Under the terms of this dissolution, Incuvo forfeits all rights to future royalty payments derived from the game’s sales. This restructuring effectively ends the original collaborative framework between the two entities regarding this specific intellectual property.

Moving forward, PCF Group assumes full responsibility for the final product and its ongoing commercialization. While the company retains the option to utilize Incuvo’s resources for potential future development tasks, the publisher now maintains complete control over the title’s lifecycle. This shift in management strategy reflects a broader effort to mitigate the impact of the game’s poor market reception and consolidate oversight of the product’s future development and sales trajectory.

PCF Group S.A. has formally initiated a comprehensive review of strategic options to evaluate potential pathways for supporting the long-term development of the company and its capital group. This process is designed to identify and assess various opportunities that could enhance the organization’s growth trajectory, including the potential acquisition of a financial or strategic investor. Furthermore, the review encompasses the possibility of executing corporate transactions that might result in structural changes to the company’s shareholding or capital base.

The scope of this initiative involves active engagement and preliminary discussions with various external entities to explore potential partnerships or investment scenarios. While the company intends to provide selected parties with necessary information to facilitate these evaluations, the process remains in its preliminary stages. No specific outcomes, timelines, or definitive decisions have been established, and the company emphasizes that there is no guarantee that any particular strategic action will be finalized as a result of this review.

Throughout the duration of this assessment, the group remains committed to its existing operational strategy and will continue to execute its current business objectives. Management intends to maintain transparency by disclosing further developments in accordance with regulatory requirements as the situation evolves. This strategic review reflects a proactive approach to capital management and corporate development within the gaming industry, aimed at securing the most advantageous future for the group’s stakeholders.

PCF Group S.A. has officially disclosed the commencement of negotiations regarding a production and publishing agreement with Krafton Inc., a Seoul-based publisher. This disclosure follows the formal execution of a Master Services Agreement on September 10, 2024. The company had previously delayed the announcement of these negotiations, which began on July 11, 2024, to protect its legitimate business interests and prevent potential interference from competitors during the sensitive negotiation phase.

The partnership centers on the development of a new game mode for an existing Krafton title, utilizing a work-for-hire model. This collaboration aligns with the strategic objectives outlined by PCF Group in early 2023, which prioritize securing high-quality work-for-hire opportunities with reputable industry partners. The agreement is structured as a framework, with specific operational details, project timelines, and compensation terms to be defined in subsequent statements of work.

Management justified the initial delay in public disclosure by citing the uncertainty of the negotiation outcomes and the risk that premature release could lead to market misinterpretation of the company’s valuation. Throughout the delay period, the company maintained strict confidentiality protocols, including the maintenance of an insider list as required by regulatory standards. The disclosure confirms that the terms of the agreement are consistent with standard industry practices for similar development projects.

PCF Group S.A. has entered into a formal production and publishing agreement with the South Korean firm Krafton Inc. as of September 10, 2024. This partnership centers on the development of a new gameplay mode, currently identified by the codename Project Echo, intended for an existing video game title owned by Krafton. The collaboration is structured as a work-for-hire arrangement, wherein the developer provides services and production expertise in exchange for agreed-upon compensation from the publisher.

The agreement functions as a master services framework, establishing the foundational legal and operational terms for the partnership. Specific project parameters, including detailed service descriptions, production timelines, and precise financial remuneration, will be defined through subsequent individual statements of work. The terms governing this engagement align with standard industry practices for international production and publishing contracts, ensuring a conventional approach to project management and intellectual property rights.

This strategic move directly supports the long-term objectives outlined in the company’s updated corporate strategy from January 2023. By securing this contract, the developer continues to execute its stated goal of pursuing high-value collaborations with reputable global partners within the work-for-hire business model. This development reinforces the company’s commitment to diversifying its project portfolio while leveraging its technical capabilities to support established titles in the global gaming market.

The provided text serves as the official proxy voting template for the Extraordinary General Meeting of PCF Group S.A., scheduled for November 13, 2024. The primary purpose of this instrument is to establish a formal legal framework allowing shareholders to appoint a representative to exercise their voting rights and participate in corporate governance proceedings on their behalf. By standardizing the authorization process, the company ensures that all proxy representations comply with regulatory requirements for shareholder participation in high-level corporate decision-making.

The template facilitates both individual and institutional shareholder participation by providing distinct fields for personal identification, such as passport or national identity card details and PESEL numbers, as well as corporate registration data for legal entities. The scope of the authorization is comprehensive, granting the appointed proxy the authority to attend the meeting, cast votes associated with the shareholder’s equity stake, and perform all necessary ancillary actions, including the submission of statements, explanations, or formal motions required during the proceedings.

This administrative document functions as a procedural requirement for the upcoming meeting, ensuring that the company maintains a transparent and legally binding record of shareholder representation. By defining the specific date and time of the meeting, the template serves as a critical tool for maintaining quorum and facilitating the orderly execution of the Extraordinary General Meeting. It reflects standard corporate governance practices within the Polish capital market, providing a structured mechanism for shareholders to delegate their voting power while maintaining clear accountability and legal clarity.

People Can Fly Group has officially concluded its strategic options review process, initiated in August 2024, without securing the necessary capital to sustain its current operational trajectory. The company failed to obtain approximately 350 million PLN in external financing, a sum deemed essential for maintaining the existing scale of its self-publishing game development projects. Consequently, the organization is unable to execute its previously established corporate strategy in its current form.

To address the resulting financial constraints and ensure liquidity, the management board is shifting its focus toward stabilizing cash flows. The primary objective is to align capital expenditures within the self-publishing segment with the revenue generated from the company’s work-for-hire production services. By balancing these two business segments, the firm aims to achieve a sustainable financial equilibrium.

This strategic pivot marks a significant contraction in the company's growth ambitions, moving away from aggressive self-funded expansion toward a more conservative, revenue-dependent model. The company has committed to providing further updates as it implements specific measures to restructure its operations and restore financial stability. Future disclosures will detail the concrete steps taken to align the group’s cost structure with its incoming cash flows from external development contracts.
