Tencent Is Said to Mull Exits From Game Studios Like Marvelous

Corporate Action
โดย Bloomberg·Read original
Summary · why it matters

Tencent Holdings Ltd. is negotiating exits from several game studio investments in Japan, including Tokyo-traded Marvelous Inc., as part of a reassessment of its global portfolio. The Chinese game-publishing giant is evaluating its minority holdings in many studios and in some cases is preparing to sell stakes back to the original management team, even if it means incurring a loss. Tencent is navigating a prolonged slump for the games industry while playing catchup in the capital-intensive artificial intelligence race against peers Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. and ByteDance Ltd. The company considers whether its envisioned synergies with a portfolio company may have lapsed as a criterion for exiting an investment. Tencent's bets on marquee studios like closely held PlatinumGames Inc. and Elden Ring maker FromSoftware Inc. and its parent Kadokawa Corp. remain unaffected.
