Hasbro Expands Angry Birds License

Hasbro and Rovio Enter into Expanded Angry Birds Licensing Agreement

The New, Expanded Agreement Makes Hasbro the Premier Toy and Game Licensee for Rovio and the Angry Birds Brand Including the Upcoming Angry Birds Go! Property

PAWTUCKET, R.I. & HELSINKI -- June 17, 2013 -- Hasbro, Inc. and Rovio Entertainment today announced an expanded licensing agreement for Hasbro to develop toys and physical games based on the globally popular Angry Birds brand. The new agreement makes Hasbro the premier toy licensee for Angry Birds, including the upcoming game Angry Birds Go! (http://go.angrybirds.com) set to be released this year. In addition, Hasbro will continue to develop and expand their already highly successful collaboration with Angry Birds Star Wars from Rovio Entertainment and LucasFilm.

"We are delighted to have Hasbro onboard as a key licensee," said Teemu Suila, COO, Rovio Entertainment. Commenting on the announcement, Naz Cuevas, SVP, Global Consumer Products Licensing said, "We have exciting projects lined up for 2013 and beyond, and Hasbro is the ideal preferred licensee to anchor the program, expand our retail reach and delight our fans."

Angry Birds is one of the world's biggest entertainment brands. The original mobile game was launched in 2009 and remains the number one paid app of all time. Angry Birds has expanded rapidly into consumer products, publishing, and animation. In March Rovio released Angry Birds Toons, a weekly animated cartoon series distributed through Angry Birds games, TV broadcasters and on-demand networks. A full-length animated Angry Birds movie opening is also slated on July 1, 2016.

"Angry Birds is one of the most recognizable entertainment franchises in the world and we're thrilled Rovio has chosen Hasbro as its premier toy and game licensee," said John Frascotti, Chief Marketing Officer, Hasbro. "With the new Angry Birds Go! property and additional upcoming collaborations between the companies, Hasbro looks forward to delivering more innovative Angry Birds toys and games to kids and families across the globe."

The terms of the agreement give Hasbro licensing rights worldwide. New toys and games are planned for fall 2013 based on the upcoming Angry Birds Go! property and Angry Birds Star Wars. More details will be released later in the year.
