Investor update summary

28 Sep, 2026

Regulatory and Context Developments

  • Brazil introduced a provisional nationwide ban on fixed-odds betting and online gaming, effective immediately, with a 10-day transition period.

  • The measure is valid for 60 days, extendable once, and must be approved, amended, or rejected by Congress.

  • The situation is highly uncertain, with potential for legal and legislative changes, coinciding with the presidential election on October 4, 2026.

  • The outcome could range from a permanent ban to a return to previous regulations or a new framework.

Financial and Operational Impact

  • Previous 2026 revenue expectations from Brazil were about EUR 45 million, or 12% of group revenue.

  • 2026 guidance revised: organic revenue growth now 3-8% (was 7-12%), EBITDA growth -7% to +3% (was 8-18%).

  • Estimated revenue impact for the remainder of the year is approximately EUR 15 million.

  • The Brazilian operation has an annual cost base of about EUR 10 million, with significant prior investments in market establishment and compliance.

  • 2027-2028 financial guidance suspended due to uncertainty.

Strategic and Capital Allocation Responses

  • Share buyback program execution is suspended to preserve financial flexibility.

  • Mitigating measures will be considered if restrictions persist, including cost base adjustments in Brazil and related group functions.

  • No reliance on a regulatory reversal is factored into the 2026 outlook.

  • Majority of Brazilian revenue is from revenue share agreements; impact depends on partners' responses.
