Hell Let Loose: Vietnam will be released on Thursday, 13 August 2026. Excitement continues to build about the game across the community, with encouraging levels of pre-orders.

The Board remains confident in delivering Fiscal Year 2026 results in line with current market expectations, with delivery of adjusted EBITDA weighted to Second Half, as previously communicated. Company-compiled consensus shows Fiscal Year 2026 revenues of GBP 175.3 million and adjusted EBITDA of GBP 50.7 million.

Built on the same combined arms foundation - infantry, armour, air, water and support weapons - the experience expands with fully operational helicopters for troop deployment and fire support, iconic US patrol boats and six new maps featuring dramatic terrain and guerrilla warfare.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 19% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Recent Insider Transactions • Mar 29

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 17% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns.
