CEO’s Message:
Jouni Keränen, CEO of Kuuhubb Inc., commented,
“I am happy to announce that our flagship next generation game,
Tiles & Tales, continues to show progress and in November 2020
the soft launch was expanded to the US and Canada. Commercial and
full global launch is estimated during calendar year 2021. We
continue to engage in ongoing discussions for the potential
divestment of Recolor and we remain committed to obtaining the best
possible long-term outcome for our Company and its shareholders in
any decision that is ultimately made. Recolor is an attractive
addition to a number of gaming portfolios and as such, we have
received indications of interest from multiple parties that require
thorough investigation. COVID-19 restrictions continue to slow the
due diligence process but the strategic review is progressing.
While we would like to emphasize that there are no guarantees that
the strategic review process will result in any change or outcome,
we can state that any decision will be made in the best interest of
our Company’s future and our shareholders. Finally, in order to
better manage the cash situation in these challenging times, the
company is in the process of implementing a new cost reduction
program which aims to achieve over USD 1 million in additional
savings annually.”
