Cliq Digital AG concentrates on mobile business
- Announced withdrawal from online browser games (MMOG) business largely
completed
- Sole focus now on mobile, as announced in November 2012
- Just A Game's mobile activities remain with Cliq Digital
Dusseldorf, March 12th, 2013 - Cliq Digital AG, a leading mobile provider
of games, apps, software and entertainment content, focuses entirely on its
mobile strategy. This renewed focus on mobile complements Cliq Digital's
core competences.
MMOG activities sold
The Cliq Digital subsidiary Just A Game GmbH has sold its Browser Games
division. The intellectual property in so called Massive Multiplayer Online
Games (MMOG) for PC browsers have been acquired by a German company already
engaged in this area. Both parties have agreed not to disclose any
transaction details.
Financial consequences taken into account in 2012 results
The decision to sell Just a Game's assets was already made last year and
therefore financial consequences were taken into account at the same time.
The divesture of the assets is already included in the 2012 preliminary
figures published on February, 21st.
Continued cooperation on mobile games
Cliq Digital will continue publishing new games for mobile devices. For the
sold PC browser games that also exist in mobile form, Cliq Digital will
cooperate with the buyer and continues to publish these games.
Luc Voncken, CEO of Cliq Digital, explains: 'I am pleased that we were
promptly able to complete the divestment of our online PC games activities.
The experiences within the online PC browser games sector were valuable for
the development of our mobile strategy, but there are also key differences
in operating and developing PC titles. We believe there is more growth in
mobile and therefore we decided to focus on mobile games, apps,
entertainment and software. This also fits the core competences of our
company.'
