Research Note englisch - Media and Games Invest plc - 01.02.2021

Media and Games Invest plc has a profitable and growing portfolio of companies in the games and digital media sectors. The group primarily aims to grow through acquisitions of companies, restructuring and integrating them into one large platform. So far, this strategy has produced various synergies such as cost reductions, leverage and economies of scale. According to management, this strategy is followed by only a few competitors, especially in the gaming sector, leaving room for acquisitions at a favourable price. In 2020, the following has already been achieved: 1) the acquisition of North American mobile data platform Verve Group, 2) an increase in gamigo AG's shareholding from 53% to 99%, 3) the purchase of programmatic advertising company Platform 161, 4) a 100% stake in ReachHero, and 5) the full acquisition of Freenet Digital Group with more than 1,500 mobile games. In the current COVID-19 pandemic, video games have once again proven to be crisis-proof and non-cyclical. As consumers have had more free time, demand for entertainment, and therefore video games, has soared. In July 2020, MGI shares were admitted to the Scale segment (previously: Basic Board) of Deutsche Börse and on 6 October 2020, a dual listing was carried out on Nasdaq First North Premier, where many other midcap game companies are listed.
