• Revenue increase of 5.1% (excluding The Netherlands) compared to the prior year period in 2024;

• The Netherlands revenue decreased 4.6% year-over-year due to the market’s overall contraction caused by increased regulation and higher taxes;

Brazil revenue increased 42.1% compared to the 2024 fourth quarter with continued growth in provider onboarding; and

• US recurring revenue grew 55.0% year-over-year, driven by expanded high-margin proprietary content footprint; and

• Operating Loss, Net Loss and Adjusted EBITDA: Operating loss for the quarter was €0.1 million, a €0.6 million improvement from an operating loss of €0.7 million in the same period of 2024. Net loss for the quarter was €1.3 million, or €0.05 per common share, compared to €0.7 million, or €0.03 per common share, in the same period of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for the 2025 fourth quarter was €4.6 million (representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 16.5%), compared to €4.7 million (representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 17.2%) in Q4-2024.

• Strategic Market Expansion in the US and Brazil: Expanded U.S. content footprint through the launch of its exclusive and bespoke online casino content with Caesars Entertainment in West Virginia. Bragg also launched exclusive and aggregated content with several valued clients operating in Brazil (and other key LatAm jurisdictions), including Brazino777, Blaze, and Super Technologies.

Full Year 2025 Financial Highlights:

During the second half of the year, the Company drew C$4.5 million in principal and US$1.1 million in overdraft in respect of Term CORRA loans. Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 amounted to €6.7 million.

Fourth Quarter 2025 and Recent Business Highlights:

• Bolstered Leadership Team: Appointed Morten Tonnesen as its new Chief Operating Officer and promoted Garrick Morris to the position of Executive Vice President of Global Content, US & Canada.

• Player Account Management (PAM) Expansion in Europe: Announced the extension of its existing PAM platform agreement with valued client 711.nl to include the regulated Belgian iGaming market, with potential for future Bragg-powered online casino launches in additional regulated or newly regulating iGaming markets. Also, extended its existing PAM agreement with Entain Plc (LSE: ENTL), one of the world’s largest sports betting and gaming groups for BetCity.nl, a leading Dutch market operator, and with Senator Group, an online casino market leader in Croatia.

• Finnish Market Liberalization Preparations: Signed a comprehensive PAM platform and turnkey solution agreement with SuomiVeto, a market entrant led by the successful founders of BetCity.nl, focused on positioning SuomiVeto as a leading operator, and Bragg as a leading supplier, in the newly regulated Finnish iGaming market when it launches. The market is scheduled to “go live” for private operators on July 1, 2027.

• Ambitious Artificial Intelligence (AI) Transformation Plan: Leapt into an “AI-First” future by initiating the development of the Bragg AI Brain, a data-driven artificial intelligence engine designed to power smarter decisions and intelligent products across the Bragg’s Ecosystem. The transformation plan is underpinned by clear 2027 targets, including ensuring an AI-Enhanced Product becomes standard in over 90% of all launches and having more than three-quarters of Bragg’s operational workflows impacted by AI.

• Strategic Restructuring to Reduce Cost Structure and Improve Operating Performance: Announced a strategic restructuring, including an approximately 12% reduction of global workforce, designed to realign the organization and thereby improve its overall cost structure, drive its EBITDA growth, and shorten the time required for it to achieve sustained net profitability. The Company expects to incur restructuring costs related to this action of approximately €1.0 million associated with personnel-related termination costs in the first quarter of 2026, and it anticipates annualized cash savings from its staff reductions and other restructuring efforts to be approximately €4.5 million. This amount does not include the expected positive impact of the Company’s initiative to the Bragg AI Brain to drive cost efficiencies and improve operational excellence.

• Greater Board of Directors Alignment with Shareholders: From January 1, 2026, fees are being paid to directors exclusively in deferred share units (DSUs) on a monthly basis (with no cash alternative).

Matevž Mazij, Chief Executive Officer at Bragg, said: “We continued to execute well, delivering record revenues, strategic expansion and important AI and restructuring initiatives. We believe this positions Bragg well for 2026 and beyond to: increase our overall content market share in Brazil and the United States; pursue emerging alternative markets, such as Historical and Live Racing and Prediction Markets; move into new jurisdictions that offer opportunities for higher margin content business; deliver enhanced operational leverage; meet our goals to streamline internal processes; enhance overall efficiency across our organization; protect our cash runway; and advance us further along the path toward EBITDA growth and net profitability.”

Board Changes

The Company also announced the appointment of Thomas Winter to its Board of Directors. Mr. Winter succeeds Kent Young, who has retired from the Board. Both changes to the Bragg Board are effective immediately.

Mr. Winter brings deep knowledge of and experience in the iGaming and wagering industry. Currently a Board Member of Rush Street Interactive, which through its brands, BetRivers, PlaySugarHouse and RushBet, was an early entrant in several regulated jurisdictions, Mr. Winter began his career in the gaming sector nearly two decades ago and has since established himself as a leader in the field. In 2013, he founded Golden Nugget Online Gaming (GNOG), where he served as President. Under his leadership, GNOG became a top online gaming operator in New Jersey, achieving significant market share and recognition, went public and was later successfully sold for over $1.5 billion to DraftKings, where he developed their multi-brand online casino strategy and led their online casino business until September 2023. Before founding GNOG, he was the CEO and director of Betclic, a major European online sports betting and gaming operator, and Expekt, a pioneer brand in the online gaming industry, within the Betclic Group. Mr. Winter played a key role as COO at both businesses before being appointed CEO.

“I would like to thank Kent for his many contributions to the Company. I am also very pleased to welcome Thomas to our team. Moving forward, the Board and management team will be steadfast in our aim to close the clear and persistent gap between the Company’s public market valuation and our assessment of its intrinsic value. To that end, as Thomas is a gaming industry luminary who has earned my deep personal admiration and great professional respect, I am confident that he will be a tremendous asset to our Board and to our shareholders,” said Holly Gagnon, Chair of the Bragg Board.

2026 Outlook

The Company anticipates full year 2026 revenue between €97.0 million and €104.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA of €16.0 million to €19.0 million (representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 16.0% to 18.0%).

Media Troopers Prepares for Alberta iGaming Launch with Canadian Gaming Law Firm

Published

media-troopers-prepares-for-alberta-igaming-launch-with-canadian-gaming-law-firm

Media Troopers is positioning itself for entry into Alberta’s soon-to-launch regulated online gambling market through a strategic partnership with Canadian law firm Segev LLP.

The collaboration will see the affiliate marketing and customer acquisition specialist work closely with legal experts Ron Segev and Alon Segev to navigate the province’s evolving regulatory framework. The firm will advise on compliance, licensing readiness, and market entry strategy as Alberta finalises its iGaming model.

Alberta is set to become only the second Canadian province to regulate commercial online gambling, following the launch of Ontario’s market in 2022. The province took a major step forward with the passage of the iGaming Alberta Bill, which establishes a legal framework for private operators and introduces the Alberta iGaming Corporation to oversee the sector.

This regulatory shift is expected to open significant opportunities for operators and service providers alike, particularly as Canada’s iGaming landscape continues to expand. Industry observers often point to Ontario’s rollout as a benchmark, with oversight from bodies such as the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario, which has helped shape standards around licensing, compliance, and player protection.

As part of its expansion strategy, Media Troopers aims to support licensed operators entering Alberta with localized marketing solutions, including affiliate partnerships and compliance-led acquisition strategies tailored to the province’s regulatory requirements.

Commenting on the development, Shmulik Segal, CEO of Media Troopers, said:

“Alberta represents one of the most exciting emerging regulated markets in North America.

“Working with Ron Segev and the team at Segev LLP ensures that our expansion into the province will be aligned with the evolving regulatory framework and positioned for long-term success.”

Segal added:

“Canada’s iGaming market continues to evolve rapidly. Our goal is to be fully prepared to support operators entering Alberta from day one.”

The move highlights a broader trend in North America, where affiliate and marketing firms are increasingly aligning with legal and regulatory specialists ahead of market openings. This approach not only reduces compliance risk but also allows companies to establish early positioning in newly regulated jurisdictions.

With Alberta’s framework nearing completion, early movers like Media Troopers are aiming to replicate the success seen in Ontario—where strong compliance foundations and localised strategies have proven critical to long-term growth.

The leading digital marketing and customer acquisition group Media Troopers has announced it’s gearing up to join Alberta’s upcoming iGaming-regulated market by partnering with Alon Segev, Managing Partner and Ron Segev, founder of Canadian gaming and betting law firm Segev LLP.

Alberta will become Canada’s second province to regulate commercial online gambling, following Ontario in 2022. The province passed the iGaming Alberta Bill last May, which brought with it a framework to allow operators to enter the province and the creation of a new iGaming regulator, the Alberta iGaming Corporation.

As part of Media Troopers’ strategic entry into the new sector, it has partnered with Segev, who will advise the company on regulatory strategy, compliance requirements, and market readiness as Alberta finalizes its operational and licensing framework.

“Alberta represents one of the most exciting emerging regulated markets in North America,” said Shmulik Segal, CEO of Media Troopers.

“Working with Ron Segev and the team at Segev LLP ensures that our expansion into the province will be aligned with the evolving regulatory framework and positioned for long-term success.”

As with Ontario’s competitive market, Media Troopers is dedicated to supporting licensed operators in Alberta with localized marketing channels, affiliate partnerships, and compliance-structured acquisition strategies.

“Canada’s iGaming market continues to evolve rapidly,” Segal added. “Our goal is to be fully prepared to support operators entering Alberta from day one.”
