Insights

Bragg Gaming's Q4 and FY 2024 results demonstrate impressive momentum with record quarterly revenue of EUR 27.2 million (USD 28.8 million), up 16.3% YoY. The quarter showed accelerating growth with substantial margin expansion as adjusted EBITDA surged 68.0% to EUR 4.7 million, highlighting improved operational efficiency.

The company's strategic shift toward proprietary and exclusive content is driving both the top-line growth and margin improvement. Full year revenue reached EUR 102.0 million (USD 108.1 million), growing 9.1% YoY, while annual adjusted EBITDA increased 3.6%, demonstrating consistent profitability.

Bragg's 2025 outlook targets continued double-digit growth with projected revenue of EUR 117.5-123.0 million (midpoint: 17.9% increase) and adjusted EBITDA of EUR 19.0-21.5 million (midpoint: 28.2% growth), reflecting an anticipated EBITDA margin expansion of 140 basis points to 16.8%.

The company's geographic expansion strategy is particularly promising, with initiatives in Brazil's USD 1.5 billion iGaming market (projected to reach USD 3.3 billion by 2029) and deeper penetration of the USD 8 billion US market. Strategic partnerships with major operators like Caesars, DraftKings, and BetMGM position Bragg to access over 90% of the US iGaming market.

With EUR 10.5 million cash on hand, positive operating cash flow of EUR 11.2 million, and a strong working capital position, Bragg has sufficient financial flexibility to execute its growth strategy. The new executive compensation structure with Stock Appreciation Rights firmly aligns management incentives with shareholder returns, requiring substantial share price appreciation for maximum payout.

Bragg's record performance demonstrates the effectiveness of its evolving business model centered on proprietary content development and strategic market expansion. The consistent quarterly growth progression throughout 2024 validates the company's investment in AI-enhanced platform capabilities and original content, which are driving both revenue expansion and margin improvement.

The company's geographic expansion strategy is particularly noteworthy. Brazil represents a significant growth opportunity as its $1.5 billion iGaming market is projected to more than double by 2029. Bragg's early market entry positions it to establish meaningful market share during this formative regulation period.

In the highly competitive US market, Bragg's expanded partnership with Caesars Entertainment is a strategic win that enhances distribution across multiple states. Operating in five US states with access to 90% of the market through tier-one operators gives Bragg broad exposure to North America's fastest-growing regulated market.

The company's technological differentiation through its FUZE™ platform provides competitive advantages through cross-product promotional capabilities and AI-driven optimizations. These technology investments create both operational efficiencies and enhanced player experiences that should drive higher engagement metrics.

Bragg's strategic focus on shifting revenue concentration toward higher-margin proprietary and exclusive content is already yielding results through improved EBITDA margins. This margin expansion is expected to continue in 2025 with projected improvement of 140 basis points to 16.8%.

The implementation of a performance-based Stock Appreciation Rights plan requiring significant share price appreciation for full payout creates strong alignment between executive compensation and shareholder outcomes. This structure indicates management's confidence in executing their strategic roadmap to drive substantial equity value creation.

Adjusted EBITDA Guidance: Adjusted EBITDA is forecasted to range between EUR 19.0 million and EUR 21.5 million, compared to EUR 15.8 million in 2024, supported by a shift toward higher-margin product offerings.

Strategic Business Drivers

The Company is expecting to realize its anticipated 2025 results in part, as a result of certain strategic initiatives, including:

Shift in Revenue Concentration: The percentage of revenue from the Company’s proprietary and exclusive content business is expected to increase providing a more margin-accretive mix and improving profitability with reduced reliance on third party content revenue by year end.
Growth in Key Markets: Content-focused products, including proprietary, exclusive and aggregated content are projected to drive significant revenue growth in Brazil and North America, which are expected to contribute up to 10% and 15% of revenue, respectively by year-end.
Brazil’s Growth Potential: The Company believes that its proprietary and exclusive content and aggregation businesses are strategically positioned to capture a significant share of Brazil’s USD 1.5 billion iGaming market, projected to more than double to over USD 3.3 billion by 2029, according to H2 Gambling Capital.
US Market Penetration: The Company believes that it is strategically positioned for significant growth in the US market by leveraging its proprietary and exclusive content portfolio. Through integration with top-tier operators such as DraftKings, FanDuel, Rush Street, Caesars and BetMGM, and licenses in all key iGaming states, the Company’s content is accessible to over 90% of the US iGaming market, valued at over $8 billion, according to H2 Gambling Capital. Under the leadership of Neill Whyte, Chief Commercial Officer, and Garrick Morris, SVP (Commercial, US & Canada), veterans of the iGaming industry with multi-decade successful market penetration experience under their belt, the Company has strong leadership to garner enhanced market share. It is expected that proprietary and exclusive content growth in the US will be further driven by the recently announced technology and content partnership with Caesars Entertainment Inc. This partnership, which leverages the Company’s cutting-edge technology and innovative development strengthens the Company’s profile in a competitive and dynamic market.
Stronger Penetration in Major European Markets: Bragg aims to expand content distribution in key Western European markets, including Italy, UK, Spain, and Sweden, by leveraging existing integrations with top operators and implementing targeted sales strategies.
Expand Exclusive Partnerships: The Company plans to increase its roster of partner studios to enhance the release cadence of titles in North America. Additionally, Bragg aims to grow exclusive content distribution in Central European markets, including the Czech Republic and Germany, through strategic partnerships with studios such as GAMOMAT and King Show Games.
Stability in PAM Business: The Company’s PAM business is expected to remain flat year-over-year, an overall positive, despite the anticipated contraction of the Netherlands market in 2025 due to regulatory changes made in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Enhanced Technology Profile: The Company continues to innovate with technologies such as FUZE™, which provides bonuses, free rounds, tournaments, jackpots, recommendation engine and other engagement and promotional tools seamlessly across all iGaming, sports betting and iLottery products, requiring no additional integration. These advanced features enhance player experience and contribute to the growth of the Company’s product portfolio revenue.
Data and AI Enhancements: By leveraging extensive gaming data, the Company generates actionable insights and employs AI-driven optimizations to elevate player experiences and enhance operator profitability, thereby accelerating profitable growth in proprietary and exclusive content verticals. Opportunities to leverage AI to reduce costs and enhance product margins are also being actively explored.
Pipeline Opportunities: A robust pipeline of opportunities is under development, which, if realized, could further enhance 2025 performance but are not yet reflected in the current guidance.
Stock Appreciation Rights Plan: Bragg has also introduced a new Stock Appreciation Rights (SAR) plan for its executive management team, further aligning management interests with those of shareholders. The SAR plan has been implemented under the Company’s Amended and Restated Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and pays out only if the Company’s share price increases over a three-year period, with a full payout contingent on achieving a four-fold increase from a base price of CAD $5. This structure ensures that executive compensation is firmly tied to delivering significant shareholder value. Additionally, the plan includes accelerated vesting provisions in the event of a change of control, preserving alignment with shareholder interests in all value-creation scenarios. SAR award payouts may be settled through the payment of cash, the issuance of shares, or through a combination of both, subject to the discretion of the Company’s Board and availability of shares under the Company’s equity incentive plan at the time.

Statements in this news release make reference to “Adjusted EBITDA”, which is a non-IFRS (as defined herein) financial measure that the Company believes is appropriate to provide meaningful comparison with, and to enhance an overall understanding of, the Company’s past financial performance and prospects for the future.

The Company considers “Adjusted EBITDA” to be a relevant indicator for measuring trends in performance and its ability to generate funds to service its debt and to meet its future working capital and capital expenditure requirements. “Adjusted EBITDA” is not a generally accepted earnings measure and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), cash flows or other measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA is more fully defined and discussed, and reconciliation to IFRS financial measures is provided, in Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for the three-month and twelve-month period ended December 31, 2024.
