Though a latecomer in the segment, Huuuge found its niche in targeting younger players. It focuses on live operations — frequent updates such as tournaments to keep players coming back.
The company is taking advantage of a big window in gaming IPOs. Playtika went public at an $11.4 billion last week. If you talk about exit deals, or both acquisitions and IPOs, the total value hit $11.6 billion for 158 transactions, according to market analyst InvestGame. The biggest were Zynga’s acquisition of private Peak Games for $1.8 billion and Tencent’s acquisition of Leyou Technologies for $1.4 billion. Activision Blizzard raised $2 billion in senior notes (a form of debt).

Huuuge has seen its revenues grow at a compound-annual-growth rate of 30.6% from $152.1 million in 2017 to $259.4 million at the end of 2019.
In the same period its consolidated adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) increased from a loss of $4.3 million to $24.8 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, Huuuge generated consolidated revenue of $243.5 million compared to $187.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, reflecting a year-to-year growth of 30%. Last year, Huuuge had to pay $6.5 million to settle a class-action lawsuit accusing the company under Washington state law of violating gambling and consumer protection laws with its its free-to-play social casino games. Others in the industry have also had to pay to settle lawsuits in the state.
