The presentation outlines PCF Group S.A.’s financial performance for the first half of 2024, focusing on revenue trends, profitability metrics, and portfolio developments. Revenue grew steadily from PLN 180.3 m in 2020 to PLN 171.5 m in the first quarter of 2024, with quarterly figures ranging between PLN 30.2 m and PLN 40.5 m, reflecting a modest year‑over‑year increase of roughly 3–4 %. Net income, however, remained negative throughout the period, with a cumulative loss of PLN 33.3 m in H1 2024 compared to PLN 13.1 m loss in H1 2023, largely attributed to a significant write‑down of the Gemini project and reduced earnings from the Bulletstorm VR title. EBITDA was similarly impacted, with a corrected figure of PLN –11.3 m in Q2 2024 due to revenue adjustments and project‑specific costs.

The group’s portfolio, managed by InCuvO, includes three core VR titles—Green Hell, Green Bulletstorm Bison, and People Can Fly—as well as additional projects such as VRowe. Green Hell VR is slated for release on Meta Quest+ in June 2024, while Bulletstorm Bison’s co‑op mode is targeted for Q4 2024. People Can Fly’s latest version 1.4, featuring a horde mode, is expected in September 2024.

Geographically, the company’s workforce remains concentrated in Warsaw (≈495 employees) with satellite offices in Montreal, New Castle, Dublin, and Katowice. The presentation emphasizes that the data are current as of 30 June 2024 and that future projections are subject to change.

Wyniki Finansowe: Q3 2025

The presentation outlines PCF Group S.A.’s financial performance and strategic outlook for the third quarter of 2025, covering operations in Poland, Europe, North America and the UK. Revenue for the quarter reached PLN 190.4 million, a slight decline from the previous year’s PLN 180.3 million, driven by lower sales of the AAA title “Lost Rift” and a modest increase in self‑publishing income. Net profit fell to PLN –95.7 million, reflecting significant one‑off costs and amortisation of goodwill and IP assets, particularly from the “Lost Rift” CGU. EBITDA after adjustments was PLN –1.7 million, a deterioration from the prior year’s positive figure, largely due to write‑downs of development assets and licensing expenses.

The group’s balance sheet shows a reduction in total assets from PLN 1,144 million to PLN 1,050 million, with a corresponding decline in equity and an increase in short‑term liabilities. Cash flow remains a priority, with management emphasizing the need to focus on WFH projects that can self‑finance and reduce dependency on external funding.

Strategically, PCF is pursuing new AAA collaborations (e.g., Krafton), expanding its VR portfolio with titles such as “Green Hell” and “Pirates VR,” and securing publishing agreements for the “People Can Fly” IP on Meta Quest platforms. The company plans to streamline costs, maintain client relationships, and accelerate new project pipelines while monitoring cash generation closely.

  • PCF Group S.A. reported a net loss of PLN 95.7 million for Q3 2025, driven by significant one-off costs and the amortisation of goodwill and IP assets related to the 'Lost Rift' title.
