SELECTED KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS, MGI GROUP
The Year-End 2022 report is available on MGI’s corporate website at www.mgi-se.com in the Investor Relations section. All financials are preliminary and reviewed but not audited. A Word from Remco Westermann, CEO“MGI ends the year 2022 at the high end of its increased guidance, with 324mEUR revenues and 93mEUR adj. EBITDA, reflecting a solid financial performance and profitability. Our business continued to generate significant cash flows and we reduced our net leverage to 2.9x as of 31 December 2022. In 2022, growth mainly came from new customers, we added 133 new software clients to our active portfolio, which now consists of 551 Software Clients. Existing customer cohorts were due to the market headwinds rather flat which is reflected in our net dollar expansion rate of 96% in Q4 2022. By onboarding new software clients, we were able to grow and increase our market share considerably. Regarding our own games content, we continued to shift our strategy towards games with substantial advertising income as well as access to customer data, away from smaller desktop-based PC games. As part of the portfolio streamlining, we reduced our games workforce by approximately 50 FTEs, recognized a one-time amortization in the amount of 23.6 mEUR and decided to sell our EG7 stake, which was realized in mid Q1 2023. MGI is now streamlined, more efficient than ever, ready for the future and will continue to focus on its ad-software platform supported by accretive games with a large amount of first-party data. While we expect the advertising markets to recover, we are also well-positioned to grow even in the current difficult environment, by constantly adding new software clients to our portfolio. We are eager to show further growth and value creation for our shareholders in 2023 and for many years to come.” commented Remco Westermann, CEO MGI Group.
