Directors tender resignations at Cherry AB
Reading Time: 1 minute
Two board members, Anna Bergius and Claes Ruthberg, tendered their resignations, as an investigation into the alleged insider trading by former CEO, Anders Holmgren is progressing. The company has already started the search for their replacements. Bergius and Ruthberg submitted the resignation to Cherry chairman, Morten Klein, which would come into effect immediately.
Cherry said in a statement: “Their decision was based on receiving a notice from the Swedish Economic Crime Authority, informing the two board members about the authority’s suspicion of crime committed by them in connection with the investigation that was initiated in May 2018 of alleged insider crime carried out by the former CEO, Anders Holmgren.
“Both board members concluded that their decision is the best alternative for the company given the current situation.”
Holmgren had been arrested on suspicion of insider trading.
The Economic Crime Authority carried out a raid of Cherry’s offices on May 22 and the arrest took place shortly after. Gunnar Lind, chairman of the audit committee at Cherry, has taken on the role of acting president and chief executive while the investigation continues.
Following the resignations of Bergius and Ruthberg, the Cherry Board of Directors consists of four members. According to the company’s Articles of Association, the board of directors must comprise at least three and at most nine members. Cherry said Klein has been in contact with the Nomination Committee to initiate a search for additional board members.
Earlier this month, Cherry said it was set to conclude its search for a new permanent CEO by the end of August.
Klein, speaking on an earnings call for the company’s second-quarter financial results, hailed the leadership of Lind in his acting capacity.

In another first for the gaming giant in its 20th anniversary year, Play’n GO has extended its brand to the world of fashion with the drop of its first premium collection now available on playngoshop.com
Play’n GO, the world’s leading casino entertainment provider, has today announced that the next extension of the globally recognised brand, Play’n GO Shop, is now live.
The new fashion brand, Play’n GO Shop, launches with a curated and bespoke capsule collection called ‘Gear Up and GO’ that features classic characters and games titles from Play’n GO’s industry-leading portfolio of intellectual property.
Play’n GO fans can expect regular drops of both wearable and collectable items to coincide with seasonal changes, major game launches, retrospective items, music collaborations and more.
Ebba Arnred, Chief Marketing Officer of Play’n GO, said: “Play’n GO is an entertainment brand that lives at the intersection of gaming, music and fashion. The launch of Play’n GO Shop is the perfect complement to our other brand assets.
“The connection between music and fashion is well known – both are powerful expressions of identity and creativity and have long been a driver of cultural relevance.
“With Play’n GO Shop now taking its place alongside our rapidly growing Play’n GO Music brand, our characters and games will now have further room to reach new audiences.
“We couldn’t be more excited about Play’n GO Shop and have big plans for the future – the sky is truly the limit. And to all of those Play’n GO fans who email us every single day asking where they can buy a Garga…stay tuned!”
Play’n GO’s previous brand extension, Play’n GO Music, launched in late 2023. Artist collaborations on both in-game and bespoke music, in addition to driver playlists with the MoneyGram Haas F1 Team, have seen hundreds of thousands of views and streams across YouTube and Spotify to date.
Major projects such as recording the in-game music for Play’n GO’s title Hugo Legacy live with the Czech National Symphony orchestra garnering both award-wins and significant acclaim within the industry.
