Read our privacy policy Games Workshop has revealed it dished out £18 million among its staff, after the Warhammer figurine maker reported a stronger year of sales and profits. Games Workshop said it estimates its pre-tax profit for the year to June to be at least £200 million, up from £171 million the year prior. Dan Coatsworth, an investment analyst at AJ Bell, said the “numbers spoke for themselves, with profit expected to beat market expectations” for Games Workshop. “Licensing income is really picking up, which is important to Games Workshop’s strategy of trying to sweat its assets and find more ways to commercially exploit its intellectual property.”
