Ubisoft Faces Shareholder Protest Over Alleged IP Sale Talks and Management Issues

A minority investor accuses Ubisoft of failing to disclose acquisition discussions with Microsoft and EA and demands a clear recovery plan.

AJ Investments CEO Juraj Krúpa, a minority shareholder, plans a protest at Ubisoft's Paris headquarters, citing mismanagement and lack of transparency.
Krúpa alleges Ubisoft withheld information about discussions with Microsoft, EA, and others regarding potential sales of intellectual properties.
The shareholder also criticized delays in major releases, such as Assassin's Creed Shadows, which impacted Ubisoft's stock value and investor confidence.
Ubisoft responded by confirming an independent committee is reviewing strategic options to maximize franchise value but has not disclosed specific plans.
The protest is scheduled for May, with Krúpa stating it will be canceled if Ubisoft demonstrates measurable improvements in shareholder value.
