Strategic focus through Premium Games segment divestment
The first half of 2025 has been a period of continued transformation, operational discipline, and enduring focus on profitability at Azerion. Amid a dynamic digital media landscape, the Group has taken decisive steps to simplify its structure, sharpen its focus on core assets, and build a stronger foundation for long-term growth.
As part of this simplification Azerion announced the sale of Whow Games in July 2025, which represented the lion's share of its Premium Games segment to South Korea-based DoubleUGames for a total consideration of € 65 million. The deal consists of an upfront payment of € 55 million and an earn-out of up to € 10 million, subject to customary adjustments.
This transaction and the intention of the Group to sell the remaining activities of this segment mark another significant step in Azerion’s strategy, a journey the company has been on for some years now, reinforcing digital advertising as the company’s core business. Meanwhile, our expansion into cloud infrastructure and AI-driven solutions further improves the profitability of our core business while at the same time opening up new product and sales opportunities.
Prioritising advertising as key driver of growth of continuing operations
The continuing operations (Platform segment) had another record-breaking quarter. Recent consolidation and integration efforts have primarily targeted this part of the business, making the increase in profitability most evident in these results. Our divestment of Whow games allows us to further increase our efforts and growth in the Advertising Platform where efficiencies, scale and AI are significant contributors to expansion and acceleration of our profitability.
