Jörgen Larsson, CEO, Stillfront Group, comments

" I am happy to note that our games are very attractive to our players. I am especially pleased that we have been able to continue to build on the fast ramp-up during November and December, paired with continuous high player loyalty during the quarter.  Especially the paying players demonstrate great loyalty and strong spending. I see this as an acknowledgement that our games offer entertainment to our players for a long period of time, which is exactly in line with Stillfront's strategy," Jörgen Larsson, CEO, Stillfront Group comments.
