Los ingresos de Acclaim durante el a?o fiscal que termin? el 31 de Marzo de 2004 fueron de 127,8 millones de euros, 60,66 millones menos que los 189,09 millones de 2003. Acclaim comunic? unas p?rdidas netas de 50,76 millones para 2004, comparados con las p?rdidas de 76,32 millones del a?o pasado. Acclaim ofreci? unos resultados de beneficios brutos en torno a los 57,69 millones de euros, una considerable bajada desde los 70.29 millones de 2003. La compa??a ha sugerido que dicho recorte se debe a la reducci?n de m?rgenes.
Una buena parte de las p?rdidas de Acclaim sucedieron durante el final del ?ltimo trimestre fiscal de 2004. En este periodo, la compa??a multinacional mostr? una p?rdida neta de 22,86 millones de euros, comparado con la p?rdida neta de 40,5 millones durante el mismo periodo de 2003.
Acclaim est? buscando una nueva entidad de pr?stamo que contin?e el acuerdo actual con GMAC (Comercial Finance, la financiera de General Motors), que ya est? terminando. Pero como el acuerdo no puede asegurarse con las actuales cuentas del grupo, la compa??a puede verse obligada a tomar medidas dr?sticas. Los resultados financieros dicen que "El fallo en la obtenci?n de un nuevo cr?dito podr?a afectar de una forma muy adversa a las operaciones de la compa??a y a la liquidez, con lo que podr?a verse forzada al cese de operaciones o a buscar la protecci?n que proporcionar?a declararse en situaci?n de bancarrota".
Buena parte del destino de la compa??a descansa en la nueva oleada de t?tulos, que incluyen Worms Forts Under Siege (de Team 17), 100 bullets, Juiced (uno de sus t?tulos estrella que est? a punto de aparecer), Red Star y la publicaci?n a nivel internacional del juego basado en Bard?s Tale (uno de los RPGs m?s aclamados entre los puristas occidentales). Si la compa??a consigue que este a?o haya una recuperaci?n con esta serie de lanzamientos, las cosas podr?an pintar mejor de cara a una posible recuperaci?n. Aunque ser?a algo lento, cuesti?n de varios a?os.
Por supuesto, te mantendremos al d?a de todo cuanto acontezca alrededor de Acclaim y de sus t?tulos, no dejes de visitar www.xboxmaniac.com.
