Transformational Deal Positions Unity as
Leading End-to-End Platform for Developers to Build, Run, and Grow
Mobile Games and Real-Time 3D Content
Unity (NYSE: U) today announced that it has completed its merger
with ironSource, becoming the industry’s leading end-to-end
platform for mobile app creators. The transformational combination
allows Unity to support developers through the entire development
lifecycle as they build, run, and grow immersive, real-time games
and 3D experiences into successful businesses. The company’s depth
and breadth of tools and services are unmatched in the industry.
The combined company is expected to be highly profitable and
generate positive free cash flow.
“We’re happy to welcome ironSource to the Unity family and get a
step closer to our goal of being the leading platform for a world
with more creators in it,” said John Riccitiello, CEO of Unity.
“Together, we offer a complete ecosystem for developers to
successfully realize and achieve their goals – no matter where they
are in the development cycle.”
Game developers will have access to more tools that bridge the
gaps between creation and growth so they can deliver a better game
experience. If they choose to monetize their games, they can also
now use Unity’s best-in-class mediation platform LevelPlay to
maximize their revenue. More details can be found on Unity’s
website.
“The driving force behind this industry-changing merger is to
create more value for developers across the entire development
journey,” said Tomer Bar-Zeev, CEO, ironSource. “We are very
excited about the road ahead as we begin integrating our product
portfolios more deeply and strengthening the feedback loop between
creating great games and growing them into successful businesses.
In doing so, we’ll be able to create a world where more creators
are more successful than ever before.”
Board Appointments
As previously announced, in connection with the closing of the
transaction, Tomer Bar-Zeev, Shlomo Dovrat and David Kostman have
joined the Unity Board of Directors, increasing the number of Board
members from 10 to 13 members.
