"Our financial results for the last quarter—both turnover and operating profit—did not match the figures from the same period last year. However, this discrepancy primarily stems from the first quarter of 2023 being exceptionally strong due to the launch of our 20th anniversary event, TWEN.
In early 2024, MindArk has focused on advancing AI integration across the organization. This initiative is already enhancing our operational efficiency, accelerating development, and improving gaming experiences. Additionally, our AI-driven approach to data management is paving the way for more informed strategic decisions."
