According to AJ Investments, a minor shareholder of Ubisoft, the company appears to be poorly run and has been unclear about reported talks with Microsoft and EA regarding potential takeovers. In a statement, AJ Investments expressed their intention to arrange a demonstration at Ubisoft’s Paris office in an effort to bring attention to their worries.
According to a statement released by AJ Investments CEO Juraj Krupa, and as reported by IGN, the current management at Ubisoft is criticized by AJ Investments for poor leadership. The investment group suggests that Ubisoft should outline a “recovery plan” due to decreasing shareholder value, inadequate operational performance, and a failure to keep pace with market developments.
As a gaming enthusiast, I’m sharing some exciting news that’s been making the rounds. Apparently, MergerMarket, a private financial market platform, posted a story suggesting that Ubisoft could be in talks with Microsoft, EA, and other companies about acquiring certain unnamed franchises from Ubisoft. Here’s the kicker: Ubisoft management hasn’t been transparent about these discussions in the public sphere.
A representative from Ubisoft has once again emphasized their previous statement, indicating that they are currently examining various strategic and financial choices for transformation, known as “strategic review.” However, it’s important to note that the company will not disclose any updates until a potential deal is finalized.
Beyond the speculations about Microsoft and EA, it’s also said that Ubisoft could be negotiating with Tencent regarding a financial agreement. The details are still uncertain, but there are whispers suggesting that Ubisoft might consider parting ways with specific game franchises in this potential deal.
Krupa pointed out that the postponement of Assassin’s Creed Shadows until March 20 resulted in a drop in Ubisoft’s share value. However, it was primarily small-time retail investors who suffered from this, not large institutional investors such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. Since Ubisoft failed to act “properly,” according to AJ Investments, the company is urging disgruntled investors to participate in a protest scheduled for May.
Krupa mentioned that AJ Investments might withdraw its protest should Ubisoft’s strategic evaluation culminate in a conclusion benefiting shareholders with increased value. Additionally, Krupa didn’t dismiss the possibility of taking legal action against Ubisoft.
According to Krupa, Ubisoft has been lagging behind its competitors within the industry, and it is high time for the company to pay heed to the concerns of its shareholders. This upcoming demonstration will serve as a strong message from investors who see potential in the company but are calling for immediate reforms.
Speaking of which, Ubisoft is set to launch their upcoming title, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, on March 20th. The last year has been challenging for Ubisoft, with cost-reduction measures leading to layoffs and studio closures, as well as the termination of XDefiant project.
