Infogrames completed its purchase of the US based Atari last month and now the France based publisher has announced its latest financial numbers. According to our sister site GameDaily, revenues at Infogrames jumped over 44 percent to 131.8 million euros for the first half of the company's fiscal year that ended Sept. 30. While the company is still not yet profitable Infogrames execs predict it will return to profitability by the second half of their 2009/2010 fiscal time period.

Infogrames/Atari already has a lot of upcoming games due for release in 2009. Two of them came from the former Vivendi Games; Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena and Ghostbusters. They also plan to publish Heroes over Europe and will distribute a boxed copy of CCP's space based MMO EVE Online in 2009.
