Ubisoftcertainly finished off this past year in
force.
YG > Yes, 2004/2005 was an extraordinary year!
Not onlydid we increase overall sales by 8% (at
constant exchange rates) to an all-time high of
€538 million, but we had a spectacular fourth
quarter that surpassedany other in Ubisoft’s
history. Our last quarter saw the company riseto
the 5th rank among independent publishers on
consoles in the United States, and place as the 2nd
independent publisher in both the United
Kingdom and France. Titles from eight of our
major brands generated 17 million units in sales
for the year, representing 65% of our business,
with Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Chaos Theory™
Yves Guillemot, President and CEO, looks
back on the past year and shares his thoughts
on the company’s prospects for the years to
come.
