NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of US$ unless stated otherwise)

1.Reporting entity

GDEV Inc. (formerly, Nexters Inc.) (the “Company”) is a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands on January 27, 2021, which was formed for the sole purpose of effectuating a merger with Kismet Acquisition One Corp (“Kismet” a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (“SPAC”)).

The mailing and registered address of GDEV Inc.’s principal executive office is 55, Griva Digeni, 3101, Limassol, Cyprus.

GDEV Inc. is the direct parent of Nexters Global Ltd, which was incorporated in Cyprus on November 2, 2009 as a private limited liability company under the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113. Nexters Global Ltd’s registered office is at Faneromenis 107, 6031, Larnaca, Cyprus. Nexters Global Ltd generates the majority of the Company’s revenues.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

The principal activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) are the development and publishing of online games for mobile, web and social platforms. The Group also derives revenue from advertising services. Information about the Company’s main subsidiaries is disclosed in Note 27.

The Company’s ordinary shares and warrants are listed on Nasdaq under the symbols GDEV and GDEVW, respectively. Effective August 28, 2024, the Company effected a 10-for-1 reverse stock split on its issued and outstanding common stock (Note 32). All share and per share amounts disclosed in the accompanying financial statements give effect to this reverse stock split retroactively, for all periods presented.

The Group has no ultimate controlling party.

2.Basis of presentation

2.1.Statement of compliance

The accompanying interim condensed financial information that refer to the period ended on June 30, 2024, have been prepared in accordance with the International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Group’s Board of Directors on September 4, 2024.

2.2.Basis of presentation

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on historical cost basis unless disclosed otherwise and are presented in United States Dollars ($) which is also the functional currency of GDEV Inc. and Nexters Global Ltd. All amounts are presented in thousands, rounded to the nearest thousand unless indicated otherwise.

2.3.Basis of consolidation

The Group controls the entity when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.

Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:

Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee),

Table of Contents

GDEV Inc.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of US$ unless stated otherwise)

Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, where control is exercised through voting rights, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee,
Rights arising from other contractual arrangements,
The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of an investee begins when the Group obtains control over the investee and ceases when the Group loses control over the investee. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of an investee acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the interim condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the investee. The financial statements of the investees are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies.

All intra-group balances, income, expenses and unrealized gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated in full.

3.Summary of material accounting policies

The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the periods presented in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements and were the same as those described in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023

4.Accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

In preparing these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, management has made judgements and estimates that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, incomes and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those described in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Reclassifications to Prior Period Financial Statements and Adjustments

Reclassifications have been made in the Group’s consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the comparative period to correct an immaterial classification error, with regards to depreciation and amortization expense. As of June 30, 2023, the total balance of 2,903 of depreciation and amortization expense was reclassified from “Depreciation and amortization” and allocated among “Game operation cost”, “Selling and marketing expenses” and “General and administrative expenses”, with a balance of 1,859, 74 and 970, respectively.

5.Segment reporting

A.Basis for segmentation

The Group operates through four operating segments, which are Nexters Global Ltd, Cubic Games Studio Ltd, MX Capital Ltd and Castcrown Ltd, while last three of them are not considered to be reportable segments based on the criteria (quantitative thresholds) of IFRS 8. The financial information reviewed by our Chief Operating Decision Maker, which is our Board of Directors, is included within the operating segments mentioned above for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance.

The following summary describes the operations of the reportable segment:

Game development and publishing

B.Information about reportable segments

Information related to the reportable segment is set out below. Segment Management EBITDA is used to measure performance because management believes that this information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of the respective segments relative to the segments that operate in the same Group and is the primary measure reviewed by our Chief Operating Decision Maker.

The Company defines Management EBITDA as the net income/loss before income tax as presented in the Group’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS, adjusted to exclude (i) goodwill and investments in equity accounted associates’ impairment, (ii) finance income and expenses, (iii) share of loss of equity-accounted associates, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) share-based payments expenses, (vi) net effect from recognition of deferred net revenues, (vii) impairment loss on trade receivables and loan receivables, (viii) change in fair value of share warrant obligations and other financial instruments and (ix) certain non-cash or other special items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance.

We disclose the geographical distribution of our revenue in Note 7. We do not have the ability to track revenue deferral on a by-country basis therefore we applied average deferral rate to in-game purchases disaggregated by geography.

6.Earnings per share

Basic earnings/(loss) per share amounts are calculated by dividing profit/(loss) for the period net of tax attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted earnings/(loss) per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net profit/(loss) for the period net of tax attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all the potentially dilutive instruments into ordinary shares.

The Company does not consider the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and private placement in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since they do not have a dilutive effect as at the reporting date as they are out of the money. Deferred exchange shares are also not considered by the Company in calculation of the basic and diluted earnings per share, as the instrument is neither vested at the reporting date nor would have been vested if the reporting date was the end of the contingent period, due to the fact that the vesting conditions in relation to the entire number of 2,000,000 deferred exchange shares were not met at the reporting date.

12.Taxation

For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 the Group recognized income tax expense in the amount of 1,864 and 1,074 respectively.

The applicable tax rate used for reconciliation of the effective tax rate below is 12.5%, which is the tax rate enacted in Cyprus, the place where our revenue is mainly generated, at the end of the reporting period. The holding company is established in British Virgin Islands which have a zero-rated income tax regime.

(a)Cyprus IP box regime

In 2012, the government of Cyprus introduced a regime applicable to Intellectual Property (IP) (the ‘Old IP Regime’). The provisions of the Old IP regime allow for an 80% deemed deduction on royalty income and capital gains upon disposal of IP, owned by Cypriot resident companies (net of any direct expenses and amortization amounts over a 5-year period), bringing the effective tax rate on eligible IP income down to 2.5%.

In 2016, the House of Representatives passed amendments to the Income Tax Law (the ‘New IP Regime’) in order to align the current Cyprus IP tax legislation with the provisions of Action 5 of the OECD’s Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) project. The amendments apply retroactively, from July 1, 2016, but according to transitional arrangements, companies benefiting from the Old IP Regime could continue to apply its provisions until June 30, 2021, as long as the IP assets either generated income or their development was completed as at June 30, 2016. Therefore, the Group continued to benefit from the Old IP Regime up to June 30, 2021.

Starting from July 1, 2021, the Group applies the provisions of the New IP Regime, which are based on the nexus approach. According to the nexus approach, for an intangible asset to qualify for the benefits of the regime, there needs to be a direct link between the

13

Table of Contents

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of US$ unless stated otherwise)

qualifying income and the qualifying expenses contributing to that income. An amount equal to 80% of the qualifying profits earned from qualifying intangible assets are excluded from the taxable profit and, as a result, the effective tax rate on eligible IP income can be as low as 2.5%.

Under both the Old and the New IP Regimes, in case a loss arises instead of profit, the amount of loss that can be set off is limited to 20%. The respective tax loss can be carried forward and utilized for the period of 5 years. Ending of the Old IP Box regime on June 30, 2021 and transition to the New IP Regime does not affect the amount of income tax recognized at June 30, 2024, nor is it expected to increase the Group’s future current tax charge significantly.

(b)Reconciliation of the effective tax rate

The reconciliation of the effective tax rate to a statutory tax rate is presented in a table below:

(c)Uncertainty over the income tax treatment and unrecognized deferred tax asset

Starting from January 1, 2019 the Group has changed its tax reporting principles, judgments and estimates in a few areas including, among others, revenue recognition for in-game purchases and software development costs, which resulted in a substantial amount of revenues related to in-game purchases made by Group’s consumers in 2019 being deferred to 2020 and beyond (see Note 25 for details), as well as software development costs being expensed as incurred. As a consequence, the Company’s major operating subsidiary has booked substantial tax losses in 2019, 2020 and 2021.

Tax losses may be carried forward for five years. Group companies may deduct losses against profits arising during the same tax year. As at June 30, 2024 the Group did not recognize a deferred tax asset of 22 resulting from the tax losses reported in 2021, because of the uncertainties regarding the Group’s ability to use the losses carried forward against the taxable profits in the future (as at December 31, 2023: 25). Tax losses for which no deferred tax asset was recognized mainly expire in 2026.

(d)Prepaid tax

As at June 30 2024, prepaid tax amount relates to overpaid corporate income tax by Cubic Games Studio Ltd. As at December 31, 2023, prepaid tax amount mainly related to overpaid corporate tax of Nexters Global Limited. On February 16, 2024, the tax examination of Nexters Global Ltd was finalised and the refund was approved and used to offset the tax liability for the years 2022 and 2023.

Business combinations and goodwill

Acquisition of game development studios

On January 25, 2022, Company’s Board of directors approved the acquisition of interest in three game development studios, aiming at accelerating the Group’s product growth strategy and enlarging its player base.

The Company acquired 100%, 100%, 48.8% and 49.5% of the issued share capital of Gracevale Ltd (which was subsequently renamed to Cubic Games Studio Ltd), Lightmap LLC, MX Capital Ltd, and Castcrown Ltd, respectively.

On January 27, 2022, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire 100% of the issued share capital of Gracevale Ltd, developer and publisher of PixelGun 3D mobile shooter title, for a total consideration of up to 70,000. The deal included a cash consideration of 55,517, consideration in the form of the Company’s equity of 3,158, and a deferred share consideration of 8,237. In parallel with the acquisition of Gracevale Ltd, the Company also acquired 100% of Lightmap LLC for an amount of 150, which was taking part in the maintenance and support of Pixel Gun 3D. The two transactions were fully executed on January 31, 2022. The deal is accounted for as business combinations based on the provisions of IFRS 3. Gracevale Ltd was renamed to Cubic Games Studio Ltd on March 30, 2022.

Based on the Share Purchase Agreement at the date of acquisition the sellers received the option to require GDEV Inc. to acquire back the Company’s shares issued or to be issued to the seller as part of the acquisition for a price of US$100.00 per share. There are two scenarios when the option becomes exercisable:

-the first scenario is when the shares are ineligible for sale on Nasdaq in one year from the date of allotment of such shares;
-the second scenario represents a general right of the sellers to sell their outstanding consideration shares to GDEV Inc. no later than two years from the acquisition date.

The option is recognized on the acquisition date in the amount of 13,499 in the line Put option liability in this interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position calculated as the present value of the redemption amount of the share consideration discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate of 3%. The unwinding of the discount from the acquisition date until December 31, 2022 amounted to 366. Additional discount was accrued during the 2023 in amount of 129. The amount of discount accrued during the three months ended March 31, 2024 is 129. No additional discount was accrued during the second quarter of 2024, as at the end of the first quarter the option was exercised by major part of the Company´s ex-shareholders while one part was forfeited. For the details on exercise of the option refer to Note 24.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of US$ unless stated otherwise)

The Group also recognized tax uncertainties and risks regarding the determination of taxable income, tax positions, and the calculation of tax liabilities resulting from the acquisition of Cubic Games Studio Ltd. The Group considered a range of possible outcomes and probability-weighted amounts associated with the tax risks to determine the expected value of the recognized tax risks in the amount of 789 as at December 31, 2023 and 793 as at June 30, 2024.

The Group also recognized a liability in respect of Cubic Games Studio Ltd in relation to indirect taxes (VAT and withholding/sale taxes), as it considered that there is a present obligation as a result of past events with the probable outflow of resources. The Company recognized the indemnification asset in the amount equal the total liability of the mentioned risks, as such indemnification was provided in the share purchase agreement.

As at December 31, 2023 the amount of the mentioned liability was decreased by 68 with the respective decrease of the indemnification asset accrued mostly due to the disposal of Lightmap LLC and amounted to 1,679. It was then increased by 111 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and amounted to 1,790.

15.Investments in equity accounted associates

MX Capital Ltd

On January 27, 2022, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire 48.8% of the issued share capital of MX Capital Ltd, a company with headquarters in Limassol, Cyprus, from Everix Investments Ltd, a Company’s shareholder, for consideration of 15,000. MX Capital Ltd stands behind the RJ Games studio, developer of Puzzle Breakers, a new mobile midcore game that is associated with both puzzle and RPG genres. The transaction was fully executed on February 4, 2022.

Further earn-out payments of up to 35,000 may increase the consideration depending on achievement of certain agreed metrics by MX Capital Ltd (the “sellers earn-outs”). The fair value of such contingent consideration at acquisition was estimated at 2,297, based on Monte-Carlo simulations of monthly marketing expenses of the group’s financial model leading to expected pay-outs of earnouts (see Note 4 for the details).

On the same date, the Company entered into a shareholders’ agreement with the remaining shareholder of MX Capital Ltd, which provided for a put and call options allowing the Company to obtain control over 100% of the issued share capital of MX Capital Ltd in the first half of 2024 (the option shares). The price payable under the put and call options depends on achievement of certain agreed KPIs by MX Capital Ltd. The fair value of such symmetric option as at the December 31, 2023 is 0 for the asset and 15,002 for the liability with no changes in value during the six months of 2024.

Also, depending on the achievement of another set of KPIs by MX Capital Ltd, the Company must pay the remaining shareholders an amount not exceeding 100,000 as further consideration for the sale of the option shares (the “Founders earn-outs”).The fair value of Founders earn-outs at acquisition is 258 based on Monte-Carlo simulations of monthly marketing expenses of the group’s financial model leading to expected pay-outs of earnouts.

The sellers earn-outs (contingent consideration) meet the definition of financial liabilities on the basis that they shall be settled in variable amounts of shares and/or cash depending on the achievement of certain targets by the relevant associates and are recognized within the line Other non-current liabilities in this interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position. As at June 30, 2024 such liabilities are amounted to 0.

The MX Capital group’s loss net of tax for the six months ended June 30, 2024 amounted to 747, GDEV Inc.’s share of this loss was 364, but it is not reflected in the interim condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss, as the Group recognizes only the amount of losses until the moment carrying amount of the investment becomes zero.

Castcrown Ltd

On January 27, 2022, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire approximately 49.5% of the issued share capital of Castcrown Ltd for a total consideration of 2,970. Castcrown Ltd stands behind Royal Ark, a game studio responsible for two survival RPG titles – Dawn of Zombies and Shelter Wars. On the same date, the Company entered into a shareholders’ agreement with the remaining shareholders of Castcrown Ltd, which provided for a put and call option agreement allowing the Company to obtain control over 100% of the issued share capital of Castcrown Ltd. The call option may be exercised no later than April 1, 2027. The put option may be exercised from April 1, 2027 to July 1, 2027. The price payable under the put and call options depends on achievement of certain agreed metrics by Castcrown Ltd and is based on a discount to a projected future enterprise valuation of the Company. In consideration for being granted this call option, the Company agreed to pay to the remaining shareholders an option premium of 1,200 (subject to the adjustment associated with the completion accounts, which related to the performance of Castcrown Ltd prior to the transaction). Following the finalization of the completion accounts, the option premium was adjusted to 515 and was paid to the remaining shareholders in February 2023. This was measured through FVTPL.

The Castcrown group’s loss net of tax for the six months ended June 30, 2024 amounted to 2,478. GDEV Inc.’s share of these losses was 1,228, but it was not reflected in the interim condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss, as the Group recognizes only the amount of losses until the moment carrying amount of the investment becomes zero.

LEVELAPP Ltd

On October 23, 2023, the Company entered into the share purchase agreement with Applife Limited to acquire 1 ordinary share for the consideration of 1 EUR. The seller has a right to repurchase the mentioned share for the same consideration provided all the outstanding amounts due are fully paid to the Company.

Carrying amounts of investments in equity accounted associates

The carrying amount of investments in our consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2023 being equal to 0 represents the initial values of the investment in MX Capital Ltd and Castcrown Ltd less share of loss of a respective associate and impairment loss (where applicable).

No additional impairment was charged during the year ended December 31, 2023 and three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

16.Loans receivable

Loan provided to MX Capital Ltd.

As part of the share purchase agreement with MX Capital Ltd, the Company entered into a loan agreement with the associate for a total amount of up to 43,000 plus the amount of debt owed by MX Capital Group to an affiliate of a previous shareholder in the total amount of 1,888. The first tranche of the loan for an amount of 8,000 was paid on February 4, 2022 upon the consummation of the acquisition of interest in MX Capital Ltd. On the same date, an additional 1,888 was granted to MX Capital Ltd, being the total debt owed to the affiliate of the former shareholder.

The second tranche of the loan for an amount of 13,000 was paid on July 6, 2022 based on the fact that certain conditions were satisfied. Tranches of 16,000 and 6,000 which should have been available for drawing after February 1, 2023 and September 1, 2023, respectively, have not been granted as certain conditions were not met.

Loan provided to Castcrown Ltd.

As part of the share purchase agreement with Castcrown Ltd, the Company entered into an unsecured convertible notes agreement on March 30, 2022 for the amount of up to 16,000 at an interest on 7% p.a. with the due date on March 31, 2025. The first tranche of the notes amounting to 1,500 was acquired on April 1, 2022 and the second tranche in the amount of 6,000 was acquired on May 31, 2022. Based on the new agreement concluded on August 31, 2023 the Company acquired additional tranche of 600 at an interest of 7% p.a. Additional notes amounting to 8,500 depending on the achievement by Castcrown Ltd of certain performance targets by December 31, 2024 were not issued as at the date of these consolidated financial statements. The Company can convert the notes no earlier than December 31, 2024, unless Castcrown Ltd has met the performance targets earlier than that.

Based on the new convertible note agreement signed on February 15, 2024 the Group acquired additional tranche of the Castcrown Ltd’s convertible notes in the amount of 900 at an interest of 7% p.a. with the due date on May 31, 2025. On the same date deed of amendment was concluded for the previously issued convertible notes where the deadline for meeting the performance targets was changed to May 31, 2025.

On May 14, 2024 the new convertible loan agreement was signed in the amount of 400 at an interest of 7% p.a. with the due date on May 31, 2025.

The fair value of conversion feature amounted to 0 as at December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024.

The loan is accounted at fair value through profit or loss as the criteria for “the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal, and interest on the principal amount outstanding” isn’t met as the interest rate on convertible bonds is lower than market rate because the holder of the bond gets the benefit of choosing to take redemption in the form of cash or shares. The contractual cash flows are therefore not solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

On March 26, 2024 the new loan agreement was signed in amount of 600 EUR at an interest of 15% p.a. with the due date on September 25, 2025. The loan is accounted at amortized cost.

On May 23, 2024 the new loan agreement was signed in amount of 100 EUR at an interest of 15% p.a. with the due date on November 23, 2025. The loan is accounted at amortized cost.

Management has evaluated the remaining undrawn commitments under the loans to Castcrown Ltd and MX Capital Ltd and given that the conditions of the remaining tranches were not expected to be met by the borrowers, the respective traches have not been recognized given that their fair value is nil.

Loan provided to LEVELAPP Ltd.

On June 20, 2023, the Company entered into the loan agreement with LEVELAPP Ltd for 260. On June 20, 2023, the Guarantor, Applife Limited, and the Lender entered into the Deed of Shares Pledge and Assignment.

As part of the share purchase agreement with LEVELAPP Ltd, the Company entered into a secured convertible notes agreement on October 23, 2023. The first tranche of the notes amounting to 678 was acquired on October 26, 2023, 260 of which was repaid by the end of 2023.

On February 16, 2024 the Group acquired additional notes of LEVELAPP Ltd amounting to 312 based on convertible loan agreement.

On June 7, 2024 the Group agreed to move the repayment date of the convertible loan note to October 30, 2025.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, no additional expected credit losses were recognised in relation to the loan receivable from MX Capital Ltd (for the six months ended June 30, 2023: 0), but an amount of 312 was recognised in relation to the loan receivable from LEVELAPP Ltd (for the six months ended June 30, 2023: 0) and an amount of 455 was recognized in relation to the loan receivable from Castcrown Ltd (for the six months ended June 30, 2023: 0). For the six months ended June 30, 2024 change in fair value of loan receivable of 1,265 relates to Castcrown Ltd (for the six months ended June, 2023: 198).

The change in fair value on the loan receivable to Castcrown Ltd was estimated based on provisions of IFRS 9 on an individual basis as 100% of the total amount as this is the percentage of cases in which the borrower will be in default based on Monte-Carlo simulation used by management to determine fair value of relevant financial instruments.

The amount of ECL on the loan receivable to Castcrown Ltd was accrued based on provisions of IFRS 9 on an individual basis as 100% of the total amount less part of the payments started to be repaid based on additional agreement and factual repayment schedule.

The amount of ECL on the loan receivable to MX Capital Ltd was accrued based on provisions of IFRS 9 on an individual basis as 100% of the total amount as this is the percentage of cases in which the borrower will be in default based on Monte-Carlo simulation used by management to determine fair value of relevant financial instruments.

On June 1, 2019 Nexters Global Ltd entered into a new lease agreement for the office spaces with a new owner in Larnaca, Cyprus. On June 1, 2021, the lease was renewed for another two years with an option of renewal after that date subject to the adjustment of the lease payments to the market conditions. As the market conditions at the lease expiration date cannot be reliably estimated as at the reporting date management decided not to account for the lease renewal option while determining the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

On March 24, 2020 Nexters Global Ltd entered into a new lease agreement over the office spaces in Limassol, Cyprus with a new owner. The lease runs for 5 years, with an option of obtaining a discount while paying the annual lease in advance. As the Group made such payments and received the discount for the first year, and plans to do so in the future management decided to account for this option while determining the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

On October 4, 2021 GDEV Inc. entered into a new lease agreement over the office spaces in Limassol, Cyprus. The lease original term was 3 years with an early termination option. Management decided not to account for this option while determining the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities due to the fact that its exercise was not reasonably certain. The agreement was terminated in September of 2023.

On December 1, 2021 and October 4, 2022 Nexters Global Ltd entered into new lease agreements for vehicles. As the terms of the contracts were the same and were entered into at the same time with the same counterparty, the contracts were accounted for as a single contract. The lease original period was 5 years with an early termination option upon completion of 3 years. Management decided to account for this option while determining the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities due to the fact its exercise is reasonably certain.

On August 9, 2022 Nexters Studio Armenia LLC entered into a new lease agreement over the co-working spaces in Yerevan, Armenia, the lease runs for 2 years. It was terminated at November 6, 2023. On December 1, 2023 Nexters Studio Armenia LLC entered into a sub-lease agreement for the same premises, but with a new lessor.

On July 7, 2023 Nexters Global Ltd entered into a new lease agreement over the office spaces in Limassol, Cyprus with a new owner. The lease runs for 3 years. In accordance with the lease agreement the annual lease shall be prepaid in advance.

The exposure of the Group to liquidity risk in relation to financial instruments is reported in Note 28 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

20.Provisions for non-income tax risks

The provisions consist of probable tax risks of Cubic Games Studio Ltd of 1,253 as at June 30, 2024 (as at December 31, 2023: 1,354). The Group recognizes the indemnification asset in the same amount in its interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position.

21.Share warrant obligation

The fair value of Private and Public Warrants as at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is determined using Level 1 inputs and is measured using the quoted market price.

As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 Warrants’ price was taken from the market. The terms of the Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants with the exception that they are not redeemable under the Barrier Call provision, where the Company can call the Public Warrants if the traded Common Stock price equals or exceeds $ 180.00 per share for at least 20 of the last 30 trading days.

Given the similar terms of the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants, the value of the Public warrants is a adequate point of reference for valuing the Private Placement Warrants and also represent a minimum value of the Private Placement Warrants. Moreover, the Private Placement Warrants actually become Public Warrants, if the Private Placement Warrants are transferred to certain parties who are not designated approved transferees, under the warrant agreement language.

24.Share capital and reserves

Nature and purpose of reserves

Additional paid-in capital

The additional paid-in capital is used to recognize equity contributions from shareholders, Cubic Games Studio Ltd put option, exercise of share-based payments options and changes in fair of other investments measured at FVOCI, see Note 15 for further details.

Cubic Games Studio Ltd’s sellers put option exercise notice

In February, 2024 certain sellers of Cubic Games Studio Ltd, i.e. Fat Slice Ltd, True Solutions Investments Ltd and Orly Holdings Ltd issued repurchase notices as per SPA for the total number of shares 101,601 for 100.00$ per share. Based on these notices the Group repurchased the shares in February of 2024. The amount of put option liability decreased by 10,160.

No similar notice was issued for an amount of 39,627 shares included in the put option liability. Therefore, a write-off equal to 3,964 was reflected as part of other financial income in this interim condensed consolidated profit or loss.

Share-based payments reserve

The share-based payments reserve is used to recognize the cost of equity-settled share-based payments provided to employees, including key management personnel and one service provider performing similar functions, as part of their remuneration, see Note 29 for further details.

Treasury share reserve

When shares recognized as equity repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, which includes directly attributable costs, is recognized as a deduction from equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are presented in the treasury share reserve. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognized as an increase in equity and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is presented within share premium.

Tender offer

On December 19, 2023 GDEV Inc announced the commencement of a tender offer by the Company to purchase for cash a minimum of 1,500,000 of its ordinary shares, no par value per ordinary share  (the “Minimum Tender Condition”), up to a maximum of 2,000,000 shares, at a purchase price of $20.00 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes, using funds available from cash and cash equivalents. The tender offer, proration period and withdrawal rights expired on January 18, 2024.

24

Table of Contents

GDEV Inc.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of US$ unless stated otherwise)

Shares acquired pursuant to the tender offer will be held by the Company as treasury shares, and will remain available for the Company to issue in the future. In particular, subsequent to the completion of the tender offer, the Company intends to reintroduce all or a portion of the shares tendered in the tender offer into the securities markets with the aim to bolster the trading liquidity of the shares by increasing its public float.

In accordance with the terms and conditions of the tender offer listed above, and based on the final results reported by the Depositary, the Company has accepted for purchase 1,655,426 shares through the tender offer at a price of $20.00 per share, for an aggregate cost of approximately 33,109, excluding fees relating to the tender offer in the amount of 58, which are considered to be insignificant.

B.Financial risk management

The Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework.

The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and in the Group’s activities.

The Group has exposure to the following risk arising from financial instruments:

(i)

Credit risk

Credit risk arises when a failure by counterparties to discharge their obligations could reduce the amount of future cash inflows from financial assets on hand at the reporting date. The Group’s credit risk arises from Trade and other receivables, Loans receivable and

30

Table of Contents

GDEV Inc.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands of US$ unless stated otherwise)

Other investments. As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 the largest debtor of the Group constituted 32% and 73% of the Group’s Trade and other receivables, respectively, and the 3 largest debtors of the Group constituted 70% and 41% of the Group’s Trade and other receivables respectively.

Credit risk related to trade receivables is considered insignificant, since almost all sales are generated through major companies, with consistently high credit ratings. These distributors pay the Group monthly, based on sales to the end users. Payments are made within 3 months after the sale to the end customer. The distributors take full responsibility for tracking and accounting of end customer sales and send to the Group monthly reports that show amounts to be paid. The Group does not have any material overdue or impaired accounts receivable.

Credit risk related to Other investments is also insignificant due to the fact that they are represented by government bonds and US treasury notes which are rated AAA based on Fitch’s ratings.

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:

Expected credit loss assessment for corporate customers as at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023

The Group allocates each exposure a credit risk grade based on data that is determined to be predictive of the risk of loss (including but not limited to external ratings, audited financial statements, management accounts, and cash flows projections) and applying experienced credit judgment.

Loan receivables

Loan receivables are provided to associates and the Company’s employees. The Group considers that both of its loans provided to associates have increased credit risk based on the weak recent performance of associates due to general market conditions. As a result, the specific provisions for ECL were booked in respect of the loans to both associates. The ECL and change in fair value balance in respect of Loan receivables is 36,507 as at June 30, 2024 and 34,102 as at December 31, 2023. See Note 16 for the description of the methods used to estimate them.

Trade and other receivables

The ECL allowance in respect of Trade and other receivables is determined on the basis of the lifetime expected credit losses (“LTECL”). The Group uses the credit rating for each of the large debtors where available or makes its own judgment as to the credit quality of its debtors based on their most recent financial reporting or the rating assigned to their country of incorporation. After assigning the credit rating to each of the debtors the Group determines the probability of default (“PD”) and loss given default (“LGD”) based on the data published by the internationally recognized rating agencies. The determined amounts of allowances for ECL for each of the debtors are then adjusted for the forecasted macroeconomic factors, which include the forecasted unemployment rate in each of the countries where the debtors are incorporated and forecasted growth rate of the global gaming market from publicly available sources. The amount of ECL in respect of trade and other receivables is 1,472 as at June 30, 2024 and is 1,431 as at December 31, 2023.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s objective when managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.

The Group monitors the level of expected cash inflows on trade and other receivables together with expected cash outflows on trade and other payables over the next 90 days.

Excess cash is invested only in highly liquid triple A rated securities (mainly US treasury notes, bonds and ETFs).

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date. The amounts are gross and undiscounted and include contractual interest payments.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and/or equity prices will affect the Group’s income or the value of its financial instruments. The Company is not exposed to any equity risk.

The objective of the market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

a.Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the values of and cash flows associated with financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s functional currency. The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures primarily with respect to the Euro, the Russian Ruble, Armenian Dram, Kazakhstani Tenge and United Arab Emirates Dirham. The Group’s management monitors the exchange rate fluctuations on a continuous basis and acts respectively.

b.

Interest risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates is minimal as it does not have long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates or material fixed-rate debt instruments carried at fair value.

C.Measurement of fair values

The transfer from Level 3 to Level 1 occurred in 2023 for the valuation of Public and Private warrants which were valued using Level 3 inputs (while from Level 1 to Level 3 in 2022). Due to the fact that the Company’s securities were suspended for trading as at December 31, 2022 and therefore the observable market price was not available, while as at December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024 management used market price following the resumption of trading of the Company’s securities on March 16, 2023.

29.Share-based payments

In 2016 the Company adopted a Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”). Under the LTIP key employees and deemed employees (individuals providing similar personal services) rendered services to the Group in exchange for share options (further referred to as “options”). Within the LTIP several tranches of share options for Nexters Global’s Class A shares and Class B shares were issued as stated below.

In addition to the LTIP, in November 2021 the Company approved its 2021 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “ESOP”). Under the ESOP, key staff employed by the Group and our independent non-executive directors have rendered services in exchange for equity instruments.

The Company granted a number of stock options under the ESOP, including:

Newly granted stock options;
Stock options, which represent modification of the outstanding options (see Modified complex options further below).

The common condition for both of these stock option types is that they have service condition. The Group’s management believes that all employees, which received share-based compensation will continue to contribute to the Group’s projects and/or be employed by the Group during the respective vesting periods.

As at December 31, 2023 11 of the Group’s employees exercised first tranche of their ESOP option plan and one director all of his options, in total 19,909 options. Two of Group’s employees left the company, so the total balance of 20,000 of the options granted to the respective employees were forfeited, as none had been exercised by the time they left the Company.

As at June 30, 2024 one of the Group’s employees exercised some of their ESOP option plan and one director in total 3,409 options. Some of the Group’s employees left the company, so the total balance of 25,000 of the options granted to the respective employees were forfeited, as none had been exercised by the time they left the Company.

Modified complex options

Under the LTIP adopted in 2016, the Company granted Class B share options on January 1, 2019 with a service condition and a performance-based non-market vesting condition (net income thresholds per management accounts). The contractual term of the options was ten years. The fair value of granted awards was calculated as fair value of 100% share capital of the Company (Equity Value – “EV”) at the grant date adjusted for the discount for lack of marketability (DLOM) and multiplied by the respective share of ownership of the respective tranche. The EV was estimated based on comparable companies’ EV/OCI multiples. Monte-Carlo Simulation method was used for the probability determination, based on which the judgment about the recognition was made.

For the purposes of the valuation each performance condition threshold was treated as a separate option with a separate valuation of the vesting period.

The following table presents fair value of options and related parameters used to estimate the fair value of our options at the grant date and probability of vesting:

(in thousands of US$ unless stated otherwise)

As part of the new ESOP, the Company modified the complex options in November 2021. Under the modified program for a portion of the options the non-market performance condition was eliminated and they include only the service condition. For the remaining options the performance conditions were modified such that only the non-market performance targets were modified. The Company considered the modification to be beneficial to the recipients.

As at December 31, 2023 management reviewed the assessment of future achievement of non-market performance targets and the remaining grant-date fair value was applied to the revised number of share options.

As at December 31, 2023 one of the Group’s employees exercised two tranches of 22,073 of his modified complex options. After the exercise the employee left the company and, therefore, the remaining 183,942 options forfeited as neither were exercised nor vested. Another employee included in the option plan is still employed by the Company and he exercised the same two tranches of 22,073 of his modified complex options, but as the management changed the plan related to the performance-based options, his 58,861 options were cancelled.

As at March 31, 2024 one of the Group’s employees exercised one more tranche of 14,716. As at June 30, 2024 no employees exercised their options.

30.Commitments and contingencies

Arbitration with MX Capital

On June 30, 2023 MX Capital Ltd together with one of its subsidiaries (“the Claimants”) filed with the London Court of International Arbitration the request for arbitration against the Company. In the request of arbitration the Claimants claim that the Company has breached certain clauses of the shareholder agreement between the Company and the shareholders of MX Capital Ltd. Around the same date MX Capital Ltd served with the District Court of Limassol (Cyprus) a legal claim with the content substantially similar to the request for arbitration. As of the date of these interim condensed financial statements both legal actions referred to above are in the nascent phase and their effects and outcomes cannot be reliably estimated, though the Company intends to rigorously defend its interest.

Taxation

Although the Company generally is not responsible for indirect taxes (VAT and withholding sales taxes) generated on games accessed and operated through third-party platforms, we are responsible for collecting and remitting applicable sales, value added, use or similar taxes for revenue generated on games accessed and operated on our own platforms and/or in countries where the law requires the game publishers to pay such taxes even if games are made available for users through third-party platforms. Furthermore, an increasing number of U.S. states have considered or adopted laws that attempt to impose tax collection obligations on out-of-state companies. This is also the case in respect of the European Union, where value added taxes or digital services taxes were or may be imposed on companies making digital sales to consumers within the European Union. In addition, as taxation of IT industries is rapidly developing there is a risk that various tax authorities may interpret certain agreements or tax payment arrangements differently than the Company (including identification of the taxpayer and determination of the tax residency).

The Company believes that these interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect our best estimate of tax liabilities and uncertain tax positions, which are appropriately accounted for and/or disclosed in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. In respect of the above risks, we consider them to be reasonably possible of being materialised, however, the potential financial effects thereof cannot be presently reliably estimated.

31.Russian Geopolitical and Economic Risks

As a result of the military actions in Ukraine, a number of governments, including those of the United States, United Kingdom and European Union, imposed unprecedented sanctions on specified persons and entities in Russia. While the situation remains highly fluid and additional sanctions are possible, neither we, nor any of our subsidiaries are currently subject to any sanctions that have been imposed. Nevertheless, as result of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, many U.S. and other multi-national businesses across a variety of industries, including consumer goods and retail, food, energy, finance, media and entertainment, tech, travel and logistics, manufacturing and others, have indefinitely suspended their operations and paused all commercial activities in Russia and Belarus. For example, Apple and Google, two of the primary platforms that distribute the Company’s games, have suspended their respective digital wallet and mobile payment services, Apple Pay and Google Pay, in relation to credit cards issued by Russian financial institutions that are the subject of sanctions. Players who access our games via these platforms in Russia may therefore be disconnected from the primary means to make in-game purchases. Based on our current geographical distribution of Bookings, management believes that the latest geopolitical developments will have certain residual negative effects on GDEV Inc.’s future financial performance, limited to the share of Bookings deriving from the markets of the former Soviet Union (FSU), which stood at 7% of our total Bookings for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and which, as a percentage of our total Bookings, has been declining over the past few years. The exact effects cannot currently be reliably estimated due to the constantly changing environment.

The Group does not expect any material impact of the mentioned risks in 2024 and beyond.

32.Events after the reporting period

Shut down of the subsidiaries

As at the date of issue of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements GDEV Inc. the sole Member of Dragon Machines Ltd has an intention to close all the projects currently being developed by it. The management is in the process of shutting down Nexters Studio Portugal, Unipersonal LDA and Flow Research S.L. The management has assessed the effect of shutting down the mentioned subsidiaries as not material for the Group.

Reverse share split

On August 21, 2024 the Group announced a one-for-ten (1:10) reverse share split of its ordinary shares, no par value per ordinary share (the “Reverse Share Split”). The Reverse Share Split became effective on August 28, 2024 and the Company’s ordinary shares began trading on a split-adjusted basis as of August 29, 2024.
