A new string to the bow
Keyword’s acquisition of GameSim for $4.76m marks the company’s long planned entry into engineering. We expect follow-on acquisitions as it replicates its strategy of building a service line through consolidating the fragmented games outsourcer market. As with the company’s Art service line, GameSim’s teams work closely with the core engineering teams of its games developer customers, creating cross-selling opportunities and deeper relationships with customers. Incorporating GameSim, together with the earlier $0.9m acquisition of XLOC, we upgrade FY17e EPS by 3%.
