Board Change

 

 

Devolver Digital, Inc. (AIM: DEVO), an award-winning digital publisher and developer of indie video games, announces the following change to its Board.

 

Resignation of Audit Chair

 

Following acceptance of a new full-time role which precludes additional listed company directorships, Janet Astall has informed the Board of her intention to resign from her position as Independent Director and Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee.  This is a role Janet has held since the IPO of Devolver in November 2021.  Janet will complete her role as Chair to oversee the 2025 full year audit process through to publication of the 2025 annual results and annual report, due in April 2026.  Janet will step down from her role effective 30th June 2026.

 

As Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee, Janet has helped guide Devolver through its post-IPO period as the Company and the wider gaming market evolved. During this time, she has overseen the continued development of the Group's internal reporting and risk controls as part of the transition to operating as a listed company.

 

Devolver will seek a replacement Audit Committee Chair independent director in the coming months and will provide an update in due course.

 

 Harry Miller, Chief Executive Officer, said:

 

"On behalf of the Board and everyone at Devolver, I would like to thank Janet for her significant commitment to Devolver over the last four and a half years. Her guidance and steady focus on risk and audit matters have been of great benefit to the company and we are sad to see her go. We wish her all the best with her new role and in future."

 

Janet Astall, non-executive Director, said:

 

"It's been a great pleasure to work with the Devolver Board and team members over the last four and a half years, from the milestone IPO in 2021 through to this year's fantastic new game releases. I will truly miss being part of the excitement and wish the whole team at Devolver all the very best in their future endeavours."
