Exhibit 99.1
Nexters Inc. evolves into gaming and entertainment holding company, GDEV Inc.
June 22, 2023 – Limassol, Cyprus – International game development company Nexters Inc. (Nasdaq: GDEV) announces that on June 21, 2023, it has changed its name to GDEV Inc. to reflect its evolution as a holding company focused on the growth of its diversified portfolio of studios and franchises. Nexters Global, as a studio, will remain a 100% owned subsidiary of the GDEV holding.
Consistent with the name change, GDEV will focus on strategic partnerships, acquisitions and other group-wide initiatives. The holding company will spearhead the expansion of its studios and cross-platform franchises, while each individual studio will concentrate on the development of its own products.
The holding company will comprise Nexters, Cubic Games and Dragon Machines, along with partially controlled assets (Royal Ark, RJ Games, Game Gears and others) as well as any future acquisitions. The current management team of GDEV will remain unchanged, with each studio operating under its own leadership.
"We are excited to announce a significant evolution in our company's strategic direction. As part of this initiative, we have designated GDEV as a central hub, responsible for consolidating and nurturing the growth of our studios and successful franchises. Concurrently, Nexters and our other studios will concentrate their efforts on the intricate art of game development," explains Andrey Fadeev, CEO of GDEV. “By implementing this approach, our goal is to optimize efficiency and cultivate a culture of transparency and cooperation within our organization.”
The name change will not affect any rights of shareholders, and existing share and warrant certificates will be retained and remain valid.
