Ndie game developer Team17 (TM17) upgraded its sales expectations for the year but revealed an £11.5mn impairment in a trading update, sending the shares down 42 per cent on Friday morning.
The company said project overspends and some games not hitting expected sales levels. This means it is “reviewing a number of titles, both under development and already launched” which will lead to the impairments. Team17 had previously promised “second half weighted” profits.
The full-year adjusted cash profit is expected to be at least £28.5mn, the lowest for some years and £20mn down on 2022.
