Issuer’s history and business

The legal predecessor of the Issuer was incorporated in November 2020 under the name G-DEVS sp. z o.o. The limited liability company G-DEVS sp. z o.o. was transformed into the joint-stock company G-DEVS S.A. by a resolution of the shareholders’ meeting of 26 June 2023.

The Company’s core business is to produce and publish games and game add-ons for PCs (sold via the platform Steam to global markets). The Issuer is active in two basic business segments: production of PC games, and distribution and publishing for which it receives fixed fees or commissions as a share of sales revenue. In accordance with the framework of the adopted business model, the Issuer intends to produce and publish games and game supplements in the low-budget segment (the cost of production of a single title in this segment is between PLN 0.1 and 0.5 million) with a production period of 12 to 18 months. As at 30 June 2024, the Issuer works with 19 specialists on a permanent basis, including 1 person working under an employment contract, 2 persons working under a contract of mandate, 2 persons working under a contract for specific work, and 14 persons working on a B2B basis.

The Issuer’s legal predecessor, G-DEVS sp. z o.o., produced more than a dozen titles for desktop computers. In April 2024, the Issuer released two games: “Anonymous Hacker Simulator” and “Monsters Domain”, which generated revenues for the Issuer of approximately PLN 608,000 up to the date of the Information Document. The Issuer plans to release further games in 2025. The games “Rich Dad Simulator”, “Nethack”, “Dark Pharmacy”, and “Gatekeeper Chronicles: Plague & Revolt” are at the production stage and have no exact release date.

As part of its business, the Issuer cooperates with its main shareholder, CreativeForge Games S.A., which is part of the PlayWay S.A. Group, and with other PlayWay Group companies in the marketing of games in social media and on Steam.

 

The Company’s share capital amounts to PLN 105,400 and is divided into 1,054,000 series A shares with a nominal value of PLN 0.1 each, issued in the transformation of the Issuer into a joint-stock company.
