This substantial loss was primarily driven by non-cash goodwill and intangible asset impairments totaling $186.9 million, reflecting underperforming operating results and a decline in the fair value of its acquired esports brand, Ninjas in Pyjamas. The company also disclosed a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting due to insufficient accounting personnel, raising concerns about financial accuracy.
