A clarification sent out to the City this morning confirms that while Infogrames has “no current intention of making any offer for SCi,” the company didn’t rule out a deal entirely, stating that it still reserves the right to table another bid and continue dialogue with SCi if circumstances change in the next six months.
SCi’s future remains uncertain – while it recently raised £60m after media giant Warner raised its stake in the company to 20 per cent, the company continues to be subject to takeover rumours and is undergoing a re-structuring programme that will leave the Britsoft firm ‘more ruthless,’ according to SCi boss Phil Rogers.
