The 3DO Company develops, publishes and markets interactive multimedia
entertainment softwares for multiple platforms that can be played on the Internet, PCs and, several popular game hardware platforms, including Matsushita's M2 and the Sony Playstation. Originally founded by CEO Trip
Hawkins to create hardware for viewing multimedia entertainment, the
company has completly exited the hardware business. The company has a
close relationship with Matsushita, which is its largest shareholder and contributes a majority of its revenue by paying licensing fees to the company. For the fiscal year ended 3/31/97, revenues totalled $92.4 million, up from $37.9 million. Net income totalled $13.3 million vs. a loss of $34.7 million. Results reflect increased royalties and license fees due to the Technology Licensing Agreement with Matsushita and the Cirrus Agreement, and higher software revenues due to increased publishing and distribution activities.
