Catena Media Enters Americas Media Partnership with The Sporting News

Catena Media has strengthened its position in the North American and Latin American online sports betting and casino gaming markets by entering a content and commercial media partnership with The Sporting News, one of the best-known sports publisher brands in the US.
The newly signed partnership will run for three years and will see Catena Media create editorial and advertorial content as the exclusive betting partner to The Sporting News.
The agreement centres primarily on the US, where The Sporting News has a national presence and wide audience across multiple sports ranging from college sports, basketball and football to hockey, motorsports, golf, tennis, boxing, and others. Secondarily, the partnership will address selected Latin American countries – Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil.
Under the agreement, Catena Media will create dedicated digital content for sports, casino gaming and fantasy sports audiences for hosting and distribution on The Sporting News’s websites.
Ryan Harper, Catena Media Vice President North America, said: “The Sporting News is one of the oldest names in sports publishing in the US and we’re delighted to have them as a core media partner. Their close to 45 million unique users per month give us access to a large audience that will enable us to compete directly with some of the top sports publishing companies in the world.”
Shaun Koiner, Chief Operating Officer of The Sporting News, said: “No one is as passionate about quality sports content as The Sporting News is, which is why a partnership with Catena Media makes so much sense. From day one, our objectives have been aligned and we’re incredibly excited to see where this can take us, not only in the US but also as we look to expand internationally.”

Raketech Announces Divestment of Casumba Assets

Reading Time: 2 minutes
Raketech Group Holding Plc announced an agreement to sell the Casumba assets due to regulatory developments affecting its markets.
The transaction, valued at a fixed consideration of EUR 12 million, will be paid in monthly instalments through December 2029, with no upfront cash payment. Under IFRS 9 accounting standards, the deferred consideration has been measured at the fair value of approximately EUR 7 million at closing. The EUR 5 million difference between the fixed consideration and the fair value reflects an element of ongoing credit risk and the extended payment schedule. Any further adjustments will be recognised through the profit and loss account over the payment period, in accordance with IFRS 9 requirements.
The consideration carries an 8% interest rate and will be paid in variable monthly instalments through December 2029.
The sale supports Raketech’s platform-first strategy, focusing on core markets and sustainable growth in iGaming affiliation. The decision to divest Casumba stems from recent regulatory shifts in its markets. This move aims to remove regulatory risks, and redirect capital to Raketech’s leading iGaming affiliation platform, AffiliationCloud.
The Casumba assets generated annualised revenues of approximately EUR 4.0 million with an EBITDA of EUR 2.9 million, based on the Q2 2025 run rate.
Raketech will record a non-cash loss on disposal of approximately EUR 10 million in Q3 2025. This loss primarily arises from the difference between the book value of the Casumba assets and the IFRS 9 fair value of the consideration. The loss on disposal is a one-off, non-recurring loss and will not impact Raketech’s cash flow or operational performance.
The transaction has been signed and closed on 24 September 2025.
Johan Svensson, CEO of Raketech, said: “This sale marks another step in refining our portfolio and concentrating on our core goal of creating the top commercial platform for iGaming affiliation. By divesting Casumba, we eliminate regulatory exposure and unlock resources for growth opportunities. This transaction reflects our dedication to sustainable shareholder value and financial discipline.”
