Blir interessant å se hvordan dette påvirker hvor ofte det kommer nytt innhold til TSW/AoC , spesielt når Funcom Inc starter på det spillet som skal ut i 2017.
Dette var jo litt moro, når tenkte funcom sist på å reversere nedskrivninger?:
The performance of the game remained stable in 2015 and the impairment test performed at the end of the year demonstrated that the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit The Secret World exceeds its carrying amount by USD 325 thousand. Due to the high uncertainty in predicting cash flows from games (as explained above) management concluded that the excess of the recoverable amount over the carrying amount might be of a temporary nature rather than a result of an increased asset service potential. This view was supported by the fact that no external or internal favourable effects have taken place (or are expected to take place in the near future) regarding the gaming industry and market or the way the game is used that could indicate that the performance of the assets is or will be better than expected. Therefore, there is no satisfactory indication that the impairment loss recognized in prior periods has decreased and no reversal of impairment loss was recorded in 2015.
edit:
Samme for AoC
The performance of the game remained stable in 2015 and the impairment test performed at the end of the year demonstrated that the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit Age of Conan exceeds its carrying amount by USD 496 thousand.

Større deler av virksomheten er nå (regnskapsmessig) lokalisert i Norge:
The Park/TLJ ga 800TUSD i inntekter (?)
2,8MUSD i rentekostnader:
- Framførbart underskudd.
The Group has unrecognized tax losses of USD 137,668 thousand as of December 31, 2015.
Det er flere år til mesteparten av dette utgår. Mye utgår i 2019. Dette er viktig for her er det mye penger å hente når de begynner å cashe inn på CE m.m.
TSW gir ca. dobbelt så høy inntjening som AOC(?). Trodde det var mye høyere, men kan nok ha undervurdert Conan.
Store valutatap i 2015:
Endelig har de fått trua
Hadde blitt bekymret hvis de skrev expects no significant revenues from CE and slowly declining revenues in the foreseeable future
Noe av dette er presentert før, men legg merke til at topp 7 av spill i early access har over 1,3 mill solgte eks.
Predicting revenues from game concepts is inherently uncertain, but the Company believes that the newstrategy of developingsmaller andlarger products, with shorter development cycles and heavierfocus on innovation and experimentation with the smaller games, the fruits of which will beincorporated into the larger products, will lead to profitability already in 2016, with additional growthin future years.

…strategic options include a share issue to raise capital in order to execute the new Company Strategy. As part of this process, Funcom is actively engaging with interested parties in the Financial, Media and gaming industries to find the best investment and development partner to pave the way for a new era of growth.”
høres det ut som at de kanskje får en emisjon til og gli ? Eller er det bare jeg som tyder feil!?
Ja for meg som har fulgt funcom i mange år, vil det være fryktelig synd hvis ikke selskapet får lov til å fortsette litt til. Det må da være flere enn oss som ser potensialet her og forandringene som har skjedd med Funcom?

Funcom is actively engaging with interested parties in the Financial, Media and gaming industries to find the best investment and development partner to pave the way for a new era of growth
Kanskje noen av disse også ser potensialet? @Alex
Nå gleder jeg meg til mandag
Fant enda mer, her skal det spares penger:
In parallel, Funcom is also analyzing and simplifying its internal structure and processes in order to
reduce the high structural costs not related to the development, production, publishing and support
of games. Funcom SARL in Luxembourg has been fully liquidated. Funcom GMBH and Funcom
Sales GMBH will be fully liquidated soon.
Ledelsen mener i hvert fall at de kan holde det gående fremover:
The Management Board upon preparing and finalizing the 2015 financial statements, assessed theCompany’s ability to fund its operations for a period of at least one year after the date of the annualreport.Based on the above assessment, the Company has concluded that funding of its operations for theabove mentioned period is realistic and achievable. In arriving at this conclusion KGJI’s confirmationof loan extensions and the upcoming share issue have been taken into account. 2015 result wasUSD 1,972 thousand better than 2014.
Som det står i slutten av rapporten:
Silent Period: For a period of four weeks prior to the publication of each interim quarterly report, Funcom will minimize its contact with investment analysts, investors and journalists. This policy has been adopted to minimize the risk of any unequal treatment of different parties in the market.
Hvilket betyr at det ikke blir noen emisjon i første halvdel av mai?
Høres hvert fall ut som gull for oss småsparere
Det kommer vel heller ingen nyheter da siden de ikke skal ha kontakt med media?
Ja her blir det litt å kose seg med i helgen
Selv om det er silence period regner jeg med det kommer til å fortsette og komme små drypp på CE facebool/twitter!
Den 4-ukers regelen tror jeg de alltid har hatt. Men det har aldri satt noen stopper for børsmeldinger.
De har hatt den 4ukern i mange år i hvert fall…
Da kan det virke som jeg får oppfyllt ønske mitt om massivt trøkk nærmere lansering, noe jeg tror er smart så kan de som du sier fortsett med litt smådrypp fremover
Det er du som er mest kritisk for øyeblikket. Hva er ditt syn på års-rapporten?
Jeg liker en nyansert diskusjon
Mener 4-ukersregelen kom med tsw (tror ikke de hadde den før det), men det har aldri hindret dem fra å markedsføre spillene i de periodene.
Mener dere at de vil holde tett med evt emisjonsnyheter i den perioden? Ville trodd at det var så significant news at det falt utenfor den regelen, og vil bli børsmeldt straks de har noe håndfast.
