May 15 (Reuters) – Donerrail Group is close to reaching a settlement with Turtle Beach Corp (HEAR.O) that will give the activist investment firm representatives on the US gaming gear company’s board of directors, people familiar with the matter said on Sunday.

Donerrail, which has beneficial ownership of 7.4% of Turtle Beach’s outstanding shares, has criticized the maker of gaming headsets and controllers for operational missteps and has been pushing the company to sell itself. Turtle Beach maintains it has been doing its best to find a buyer at an attractive price.

Turtle Beach has agreed to add three Donerrail nominees to its board, expanding it from six to nine directors, the sources said. One director is expected to retire at the annual meeting next month.

“Yeah, they’re pretty good at stealing, And I think that’s incumbent upon us to take cybersecurity very, very seriously,” Nelson said.

“We simply cannot ignore the threat from China and our adversaries who are making technological, manufacturing, and exploration advancements daily,” The Singapore Post quoted Aderholt as saying.

“For far too long, we have allowed China and other adversaries to challenge our space dominance and their ambitions only continue to grow,” he said adding, “The US needs a clear vision that could last across administrations to dictate its space policy more effectively , as a matter of national defense,” the report further quoted Aderholt as saying.

Digital freight startup Convoy confirmed Friday that it is cutting 7% of its workforce in an effort to slash operating costs amid concerns about a downturn in the economy and its potential impact on the company’s customers’ businesses.

Seattle-based Convoy, which is valued at $3.8 billion, raised $260 million in new funding in mid-April with $160 million coming from a series E preferred equity round led by current investors Baillie Gifford and T. Rowe Price and $100 million in venture- debt investment coming from Hercules Capital Inc.

“The market is not behaving normally,” a Convoy source familiar with the layoffs told FreightWaves.

The source said the layoffs were necessary amid growing concerns about the macroeconomic conditions, including high inflation and surging energy prices.

The layoffs were first reported by GeekWire and confirmed by FreightWaves.

FreightWaves CEO Craig Fuller said many companies are going to be slashing costs where they can as freight is slowing and rates are dropping.

“I think everyone’s just going into a risk-off environment because nobody knows how long and how deep a potential recession could be,” Fuller said. “Everyone’s just getting cautious.”

Since entering the freight market in 2017, Convoy works with a network of more than 400,000 trucking companies.

‘Decision was not easy, nor taken lightly,’ says Convoy

Convoy expanded its business significantly during COVID when the freight market was hot, but a source said the company had to right-size

We don’t need better PC hardware, we need better PC games

Despite contemporary gaming consoles sharing similar hardware designs to PCs, there’s one major reason why individuals pick sides between Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo. Performance specs and feature-set aside, exclusives have been the defining choice for gamers without deep pockets to go multiplatform.

Besides the hybrid form factor of the Nintendo Switch, the console is the only place to play the latest Zelda, Mario, Metroid, and Kirby games. Sony continuously sets the bar for their cinematic single-player titles on PlayStation consoles like Last of Us Part II and Ratchet and Clank that are developed on multi-million dollar budgets.

Though the Japanese electronics manufacturer has recently dabbled in PC releases, newer releases like Gran Turismo 7 and Horizon Forbidden West can only be played on Sony’s latest console.

Meanwhile, Microsoft has turned their Xbox brand into an ecosystem that stretches consoles, video game streaming, and PC. This means first-party releases like Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5 get Day-One releases across all of its platforms. This makes sense considering the best PC games are mainly a Windows-only affair (though the best Mac games have a lot to offer as well), and let’s not forget that the Xbox itset was named after the Microsoft Direct X API used by PC game developers.

Games made exclusively for PCs still technically exist, and some of the best free games out there are PC exclusives, including many of the hottest esports titles. However, big tentpole AAA exclusives are definitely rarer than they’ve ever been.
