as the Swedish outfit unveils a restructure that will focus on “cost savings, capital allocation, efficiency and consolidation.”
In a letter delivered to staff this morning, Embracer Group CEO Lars Wingefors said it will be “painful to see talented team members leave,” as he unveiled an interim COO and CSO structure that will drive the changes home. An Executive Management team led by Matthew Karch and Phil Rogers will work to implement a review over the coming months, taking the lead on consolidation and structure.
The first phrase will look at cost savings, the second will analyze specific actions and the third will be focused on internal consolidation. “I’m proud of what we have built over the past years and we should acknowledge that we are heading into a solid year,” added Wingefors. “Embracer was founded on the values of trust, a long-term mindset and a desire to embrace different perspectives. As difficult as some of the decisions we will take over the coming weeks and months will be, we are doing this because we are confident we will emerge a stronger, more efficient company.
