CD Projekt : The Witcher’s next fight: Monsters and industry headwinds

We confirm our Underperform rating on CD Projekt. Post-pandemic industry deceleration and shifting player engagement habits are creating structural headwinds for CD Projekt. The release of the new Witcher trilogy is unlikely before 2027 and carries significant execution risks. Even though we have increased our short- and mid-term estimates due to stronger-than-expected back catalogue sales, driven by Cyberpunk 2077 and its expansion, Phantom Liberty, our slightly increased target price shows downside of 21%.
