NOTE 4 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

In March 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to facilitate the Le Mans Esports Series as part of a joint venture with Automobile Club de l’Ouest (“ACO”), the organizer of the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race. Through the Company’s ownership interest in this joint venture, which was increased to 51% from 45% in January 2021, the Company secured the rights to be the exclusive video game developer and publisher for the 24 Hours of Le Mans race and the WEC, which the 24 Hours of Le Mans race is a part of, for a ten-year period. In addition, through this joint venture with ACO, the Company has the right to create and organize esports leagues and events for the Le Mans Esports Series. The Company acquired a video gaming license (the “Le Mans Gaming License”) and an esports license (the “Le Mans Esports License”) related to its ownership interest in this joint venture with the ACO.

 

In 2021, the Company also acquired intangible assets comprising the KartKraft computer video game as well as software, tradename and non-compete agreements related to its acquisition of 100% of the share capital of Studio397 B.V.
