Games services and development giant Keywords has quite a tidy amount of cash earmarked for buying more companies.

Speaking to PCGamesInsider.biz, CEO Andrew Day says that the firm has in the region of $114m in the bank for future acquisitions.

The Keywords boss says it isn't looking to splash all this cash in the near future - unless something special comes along - saying he prefers smaller deals.

"We have around €100m ($114m), something like that," he said.

"We finished the year with no debt - neutral; no cash, no debt - but with €105m ($120m) banking facility which is there for acquisitions. We're very cash generative, so we convert a high percentage of our profits to cash. Last year we made €38m ($43.4m) in profit. That cash generation machine, plus the banking facility, gives us plenty of headroom of acquisitions. I don't think we're going to be spending €100m ($114m) this year unless we find something nice and chunky, but for the kind of sweet-spot acquisitions we do, which are $5m to $10m to $20m range, we'll have plenty of firepower for those."
