MindWalk announces share buyback program of up to 2.3M shares

MindWalk, a leading player in the gaming industry, has announced a significant share buyback program. The company, headquartered in Sweden, aims to repurchase up to 2.3 million shares, a move that underscores its confidence in its financial health and strategic positioning.

The share buyback program, which is expected to run until May 15, 2026, is designed to return value to shareholders. MindWalk's strong portfolio of evergreen gaming IPs continues to generate robust and consistent cash flows, providing the financial flexibility to execute the buyback program. This initiative reflects the company's commitment to maintaining a healthy balance sheet and supporting long-term growth.

The announcement follows the company's recent acquisition of Plarium, which has been integrated into MindWalk's Midcore District. This acquisition has facilitated the launch of a transformation program for this part of the group, with synergy initiatives expected to deliver cost savings of over USD 20 million annually. The transformation program is set to enhance operational efficiency and drive the performance of the group's games.

MindWalk's Group President and CEO, Maria Redin, commented on the buyback program and the company's broader strategy. "The MindWalk that greets you in 2025 is a scaled mobile gaming industry leader with a Gaming Village that has some of the most exciting, strong, and iconic evergreen gaming IPs on the market. We are excited to present our vision, strategy, and goals today to take MindWalk to the next level."

The share buyback program is part of MindWalk's broader strategy to double the size of its group and build scaled commercial platforms supporting its games and studios. The company is also evaluating structural opportunities for its Casual District, which may include a public listing of PlaySimple in India. This initiative is part of an ongoing assessment of potential value creation alternatives and is aimed at accelerating MindWalk's M&A ambitions in the casual gaming market.
