South Korean gaming giant Krafton's recent acquisition of Microsoft Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) Tango Gameworks, known for titles like The Evil Within and Hi-Fi Rush, marked a significant move in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming">gaming sector.</a>
The deal, announced on Aug. 13, was driven more by a commitment to preserving creative talent than by financial incentives.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Commitment Over Profit</h1>
&#8220;We don't think Hi-Fi Rush 2 is going to make us money, to be frank,&#8221; CEO Changhan Kim revealed in <a href="https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/-we-don-t-think-hi-fi-rush-2-is-going-to-make-us-money-krafton-ceo-says-tango-gameworks-acquisition-is-about-legacy">dialogue </a>with Game Developer. 
&#8220;We wanted to maintain their legacy,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Although they did not have a big success in their games, we saw many creatives worth pursuing. That&#8217;s why we wanted to work with that organization.&#8221;
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Strategic Focus On Hi-Fi Rush</h1>
The acquisition focused specifically on the Hi-Fi Rush intellectual property. 
&#8220;Because Hi-Fi Rush fans really want to see sequels, we negotiated with Tango Gameworks' parent company to acquire that IP as well,&#8221; Kim explained. 
This move was intended to streamline the acquisition process and ensure the game's legacy continued without unnecessary delays.
Kim also addressed the practical aspects of the deal. "If we were to acquire all IPs, I think it's going to complicate the deal too much," he noted. 
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Staff Transition, Future Plans</h1>
The acquisition involved around 50 of Tango Gameworks&#8217; 100 employees, with the remaining staff not joining Krafton. 
Kim reassured that Krafton had no plans to reduce the new studio's staff and hinted at potential expansion.
&#8220;Krafton is a pretty big company, but Microsoft is very complicated,&#8221; Kim said. &#8220;We wanted to help the team continue developing their games, but especially Hi-Fi Rush.&#8221;

Mobileye Global Inc.

Mobileye gained 14.99% to close at $13.35 on Thursday, marking its largest intraday jump since late October 2022.
&#8220;We currently do not have any plans to divest a majority interest in the company,&#8221; Intel said in a statement.
&#8220;By providing Mobileye with separation and autonomy, we have enhanced its ability to capitalize on growth opportunities and accelerate its path to creating even greater value.&#8221;

Intel, which holds an 88% stake in Mobileye, said it believes in the future of autonomous driving technology and in Mobileye's &#8220;unique role as a leader&#8221; in developing advanced driver assistance systems.
Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger has been changing his company's operations and showed more of his plans earlier this week to get the troubled chipmaker back on track, including pausing building factories in Germany and Poland and turning its manufacturing sector into a wholly owned subsidiary, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-19/mobileye-jumps-after-intel-says-it-won-t-divest-majority-stake?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">reported</a>.
Intel discussed possibly selling some its Mobileye stake either on the public market or through a third-party sale, Bloomberg reported earlier this month.
Mobileye, which provides both software and hardware for self-driving systems, was acquired by Intel in 2017 for about $15 billion. It had an initial public offering in 2022, but Intel held most of the stake.

David Goubert has resigned as president and CEO of Ayr Wellness Inc.

Goubert, who joined the company as president in October of 2022 and took over as CEO in February 2023, is the latest in a series of executive departures at the company, MJBizDaily <a href="https://mjbizdaily.com/cannabis-operator-ayr-wellness-loses-ceo-david-goubert/">reported.</a>

The resignation was announced alongside Ayr&#8217;s second-quarter earnings report, which revealed a slight dip in earnings and growing net losses. 
Ayr's board of directors has initiated a search for a permanent CEO, while Steven Cohen, previously an external legal adviser, will serve as interim CEO.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Are Leadership Changes Enough?</h3>
In the second quarter of 2024, the company reported a slight decrease in revenue, down 0.6% from the previous quarter to $117.3 million. 
While the MSO managed to reduce its overall expenses, net losses increased to $38 million, a significant jump from the $29 million reported a year earlier.
The company has been attempting to stabilize its financial footing amid these losses. As Goubert explained before his resignation, Ayr was focused on "laying the groundwork for Ayr's next phase of growth."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Interim Leadership</h3>
Cohen, who will assume the role of interim CEO, brings a legal and corporate governance background but lacks direct cannabis industry experience. He is a founding member of Blue Raven, a New York-based legal advisory firm specializing in strategic corporate advice and general counsel services.
Cohen's appointment follows another notable departure, Jonathan Sandelman, who stepped down as director and executive chair in July, marking the second high-profile exit within just a few months.

MillerKnoll, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MLKN#NASDAQ">MLKN</a>) shares are trading lower after the company reported its first-quarter financial results after Thursday's closing bell. Here's a look at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/n40947407/millerknoll-inc-reports-first-quarter-fiscal-2025-results">details from the report. </a>
The Details: MillerKnoll reported quarterly earnings of 36 cents per share, which missed the analyst consensus estimate of 40 cents. Quarterly revenue of $861.50 million also missed the consensus estimate of $889.3 million and represents a 6.12% decrease from the same period last year.
<ul>
<li>Orders in the first quarter were up 2.4% on a reported basis and up 3.5% organically from the prior year, led by Americas Contract growth of 5.2%.</li>
<li>Ending backlog of $758 million increased 9.2% from last year and 10.9% from the start of fiscal 2025.</li>
<li>Gross margin in the Global Retail segment improved by 160 basis points due to continued benefits from operational improvements.</li>
</ul>
&#8220;While demand trends in our Retail segment continue to reflect the impact of a tepid housing market, the investments we have made in platform operational capabilities are not only driving significant margin improvements, but also position us to support profitable growth plans as the macro-economic backdrop improves. We believe our first quarter financial results demonstrate the advantage of our collective of brands, diverse business channels and global footprint,&#8221; the company wrote in a letter to shareholders.

Here's a look at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/n40948079/lennar-reports-third-quarter-2024-results">details from the report. </a>
The Details: Lennar reported quarterly earnings of $3.90 per share, which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $3.63 by 7.44%. Quarterly revenue clocked in at $9.416 billion, beating the consensus estimate of $9.164 billion and representing a 7.86% increase over the same period last year.
<ul>
<li>New orders increased 5% to 20,587 homes.</li>
<li>Lennar reported a backlog of 16,944 homes with a dollar value of $7.7 billion.</li>

</ul>
&#8220;We are pleased to report another solid quarter backed by an economic environment that remains very constructive for homebuilders. Employment was strong, housing supply remained chronically short due to production deficits of over a decade and demand was solid driven by strong household formation,&#8221; said Stuart Miller, executive chairman and Co-CEO of Lennar.
&#8220;Although affordability continued to be tested during the quarter, purchasers remained responsive to increased sales incentives, resulting in a 16% increase in our deliveries and a 5% increase in our new orders year over year,&#8221; Miller added.

Homebuilder Lennar Reports Better-Than-Expected Q3 Results: Details

West Fraser Timber Co. Ltd. ("West Fraser" or the "Company") (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFG#NYSE">WFG</a>) announced today that it will indefinitely curtail its sawmill in Lake Butler, Florida by the end of this month. Today's decision is the result of high fiber costs and soft lumber markets.
The indefinite curtailment of Lake Butler Sawmill will impact approximately 130 employees and reduce West Fraser's U.S. lumber capacity by approximately 110 million board feet. West Fraser expects to mitigate the impact on affected employees by providing work opportunities at other company operations.
High fiber costs at Lake Butler and the current low-price commodity environment have impaired the ability to profitably operate the mill. The indefinite curtailment of Lake Butler sawmill better aligns our U.S. lumber capacity with demand.
West Fraser anticipates taking an impairment charge in the third quarter of 2024 associated with the announcement.
