Highlights Q3 
The financial guidance for full -year 2025 remains un-
changed. 
Revenue decreased by 4% to 78 mEUR, with organic 
growth reflecting the same development. The perfor-
mance was in line with expectations when adjusting for 
the impact of an unusually low sports win margin.  
The main year-over-year drivers impacting performance 
during the quarter were as follows: 
1. Sports win margin : Player-friendly results in Sep-
tember led to a record -low sports win margin for 
the month, negatively impacting Q3 revenue by ap-
proximately 10 mEUR compared to the same period 
last year. 
2. The Brazilian market : Revenue share income from 
the Brazilian market continued to develop ahead of 
expectations, yet the ongoing regulatory transition 
had a negative impact of around 4 mEUR. 
3. Foreign exchange : FX movements negatively af-
fected revenue by approximately 2 mEUR during 
the quarter. 
4. North American revenue share: North American 
revenue share doubled and thus,  increased by 4 
mEUR, driven by the substantial unrecognized rev-
enue share accumulated since Q3 2022, when the  
US transition from upfront payments to recurring 
revenues began. 
5. Growth: Underlying business performance was 
strong, with several areas contributing to solid 
growth of approximately 9 mEUR. The main drivers 
were Paid Media, Sports Media, and Talent-led Me-
dia.  
Recurring revenue declined by 5% YoY to 50 mEUR, pri-
marily driven by lower revenue share stemming from 
the unfavorable sports win margin and the ongoing reg-
ulatory transition in Brazil. 
Since Q3 2022, Better Collective has been transitioning 
towards revenue share agreements in the North Ameri-
can market. While this shift has temporarily impacted 
reported revenue, it has built a strong foundation for fu-
ture recurring revenue to be recognize d in the coming 
quarters and years. During Q3, revenue share income in 
North America began to ramp up, doubling compared to 
the same period last year. Management expects revenue 
share income in North America to continue growing 
steadily, ultimately providi ng a more stable recurring 
revenue base, similar to the Group ’s established model 
in the rest of the world.  
CPM-based revenues remained flat during the quarter, 
reflecting market rates returning to normal levels after a 
weak H1. Better Collective sees early positive impact of 
several internal initiatives within AdVantage, which are 
expected to drive incremental growth in the coming 
quarters.

Q3 report 2025 Page 5  
Costs decreased by 2% year-over-year, remaining 
broadly in line with Q3 2024. It is important to note the 
following factors for year-over-year comparison: 
1. The comparable quarter last year benefited from 
several one-off cost reductions of around 6 mEUR, 
including variable pay reversals and more.  
2. Furthermore, given the strong performance in the 
Paid Media business, it has increased the spend by 
2 mEUR.  
3. The cost reduction this year reflects the execution 
of the 50 mEUR cost -efficiency program initiated 
in 2024, resulting in approximately 8 mEUR in cost 
reductions. 
 
Following these factors, EBITDA before special items 
amounted to 2 1 mEUR, representing a decrease of 8% 
year-over-year, corresponding to an EBITDA margin be-
fore special items of 26%. Profitability was negatively af-
fected by the record-low sports win margin and the on-
going regulatory transition in Brazil.  
Free cash flow amounted to 11 mEUR in Q3 and 32 mEUR 
year-to-date 2025, in line with expectations and the full-
year guidance range of 55–75 mEUR. 
Cash flow from operations before special items was 3 5 
mEUR with a cash conversion of 168% in Q3 2025. Previ-
ously d elayed customer payments in Brazil positively 
impacted the cash flow this quarter. 
On 30 September, Better Collective entered into a new 
three-year committed club facility of 319 mEUR and a n 
80 mEUR higher accordion option with Nordea and 
Nykredit. The new club facility is set to expire in October 
2028, with an option to extend for one additional year. 
By the end of September 2025, capital reserves stood at 
88 mEUR, consisting of cash of 23 mEUR and unused 
bank credit facilities of 65 mEUR. 
On September  12
th, 2025, Better Collective launched 
Playbook, an AI-powered betting solution transforming 
how fans place bets by fitting seamlessly into the way 
they already engage. Find out more about Playbook in 
the CEO letter.  
On September 16th, 2025, Better Collective announced a 
content partnership with BetMGM, making BetMGM the 
presenting sponsor of Playmaker HQ ’s “Roommates 
Show” as well as debuting a new casino show called “No 
Limit”.  
On August 27 th, 2025, Better Collective completed its 
share buyback program, buying back approximately 10 
mEUR since May 22nd, 2025. Furthermore, Better Collec-
tive’s Board of Directors decided to initiate a buyback of 
up to 20 mEUR running until March 4 th, 2026. So far in 
2025, Better Collective has repurchased 978,362 shares 
in the first buy-back program and 807,900 shares in the 
second program, equal to approximately 2.9% of the 
company’s 61,958,870 shares outstanding. Including the 
newly initiated 20 mEUR program, based on the current 
share price, this corresponds to approximately 6% of 
shares outstanding. Furthermore, at the Annual General 
Meeting earlier in 2025, the company cancelled 1.8% of 
its share capital.

ing the impact of the Brazilian regulatory transition. For 
the quarter, the total number of NDCs was 279,000, of 
which 81% were on revenue share contracts. Activity lev-
els remained affected by the situation in Brazil, where 
the prohibition of welcome bonuses has redirected 
many new players to offshore sportsbooks. In addition, 
the conclusion of EURO 2024 in July created a challeng-
ing comparison base for the quarter. 
Introduced in Q2 2025, Value of Deposits (VoD) 
measures the total amount deposited by referred users 
across partner platforms over time. This KPI provides a 
clear indication of traffic quality and player value. The 
continued positive development underscores Better 
Collective’s ability to deliver high -quality traffic, as re-
ferred players demonstrate increasing lifetime value -  
even amid lower NDC volumes. This reflects the Group’s 
strategic focus on attracting higher-value customers for 
its partners. 
During Q3, Value of Deposits reached 726 mEUR, repre-
senting 2% year -over-year growth. This performance 
shows that the company  has effectively offset the im-
pact from the Brazilian regulatory transition and 
indicates a healthy underlying development of the rev-
enue share base.  
Significant events 
after the close 
On October  1st, 2025, Better Collective announced a 
strategic partnership with X to launch Playbook as the 
premier sports betting bot across the US. Find out more 
about Playbook in the CEO letter.

Financial targets  
2025 guidance  
Better Collective’s guidance for 2025 is unchanged as 
follows: 
• Revenue of 320-350 mEUR 
• EBITDA before special items of 100-120 mEUR  
• Free cash flow of 55-75 mEUR 
• Net debt to EBITDA below 3x 
2025 guidance implications 
Revenue growth will, as expected, be impacted by the 
Brazilian market regulation. Given the afore mentioned 
factors in Brazil, including taxation, added costs on net 
gaming revenue, and expected customer churn. Better 
Collective estimates a 50-70% decline in Brazilian reve-
nue share income in the short term, which impacts 
EBITDA for 2025 by an estimated 35-50 mEUR. H1 2024 
further provides a tough comparison with a 20 mEUR  
EBITDA before special items  effect stemming from a 
higher US marketing activity from partners last year, the 
state launch in North Carolina, and the European Cham-
pionships in soccer. On the other hand, Better Collective 
expects absolute growth in its European, Esports, South 
America (excl. Brazil), and Canadian businesses, as well 
as the US growing from its lower baseline. This is esti-
mated to generate EBITDA before special items growth 
boost of 20 to 40 mEUR in 2025. Lastly, the cost -effi-
ciency program will have full effect of 50 mEUR for the 
year. All this combined means EBITDA before special 
items is guided flat versus last year. Following Q3, Better 
Collective sees no change to this.  
Long-term guidance for 2027 
• Positive organic growth from 2026 
• EBITDA margin before special items for 2027 con-
tinued at 35-40% 
• Continued strong cash conversion 
• Net debt to EBITDA below 3x 
2027 guidance assumptions 
When introducing the long-term guidance in 2023, Bet-
ter Collective included both organic growth and M&A. 
Given the changing market conditions and share price 
developments, Better Collective will likely consider 
other capital allocation measures in the near term, such 
as reducing debt and pursuing share buybacks.

CEO letter 
Playbook marks a new chapter 
as Better Collective expands 
from customer acquisition to 
include retention, following 
an exponential AI -powered 
launch already generating mil-
lions of bets placed  and rede-
fining betting engagement 
After an H1 that performed in line with our expectations, 
Q3 continued the same trajectory, driven by disciplined 
operational execution across our business and strong 
engagement across our brands and platforms. The quar-
ter was, however, impacted by an unus ually low sports 
win margin due to player -friendly results in September 
– in fact, September was the lowest monthly margin we 
have ever seen in over 20 years. These short -term fluc-
tuations are a natural part of our industry and do not 
change the underlying performance or fundamentals of 
our business model. 
During the quarter, we made great innovative progress 
through the launch of Playbook, our new AI -powered 
betting solution . This  marks one of the most defining 
milestones in Better Collective’s history. It realizes a vi-
sion my co-founder, Christian, and I have shared since 
founding the company – to empower fans with smarter, 
more personal, and intuitive ways to engage with sports 
and betting. 
By using AI to understand intent and context at scale, 
Playbook transforms engagement into real -time, data-
driven experiences. Integrated with live odds and part-
ner platforms, it allows fans to act on insights directly 
from social media like X, messaging apps, and our own 
media brands. Within weeks, it has already driven mil-
lions of bets placed and shown exceptional growth. 
As fan conversations increasingly take place in social en-
vironments, our collaboration with X positions us where 
engagement naturally happens, giving us unique access 
to scale, data, and first -party insights. Playbook repre-
sents the next evolution of Better Collective - expanding 
our focus from acquisition to retention, deepening user 
engagement, and creating lasting value for fans and 
partners alike. 
If we turn back to our Q3 performance and to the Pub-
lishing business, we saw momentum in North America 
as the NFL season kicked off, with performance picking 
up throughout the quarter. Back in Q3 2022, we initiated 
a major strategic transition in North America -  moving 
from a model based solely on upfront payments to one 
increasingly built on recurring reve nue share agree-
ments. Encouragingly, our North American revenue 
share is ramping up meaningfully, with quarterly and 
yearly high double-digit growth. Thi s is a significant 
milestone as the revenue we are now seeing from this 
important market is recurring and thereby of very high 
quality.  
We also strengthened our brand presence in the US 
through the Roommates podcast’s annual Block Party in 
Central Park, New York - a flagship event that fuses en-
tertainment, sports culture, and brand engagement. 
Thousands of fans and notable guests, including Ben 
Stiller and Eli Manning, attended, reflecting its growing 
mainstream appea l. From a commercial perspective, 
brand interest remained high, with Tommy John return-
ing as the main sponsor alongside new partners such as 
Bodyarmor. The event once again demonstrated the 
power of combining original IP with live experiences to 
deepen relationships with fans and advertisers, reinforc-
ing our position at the intersection of media, entertain-
ment, and sports. 
The Brazilian market continued in line with H1, with solid 
activity for existing revenue share due to better -than-
expected migration, when normalizing the negative im-
pact from the sports win margin in the quarter.  How-
ever, competition between licensed sportsbooks re-
mains limited, as the current regulatory framework un-
fortunately still directs a large share of players toward 
unlicensed companies. As I have stated before, a stable 
and competitive regulatory environment is essential to 
unlocking the full potential of the Brazilian market; most 
importantly, to ensure the needed user protection for 
sports fans, but also to secure tax revenues for the coun-
try and ensure fair competition among licensed sports-
books and partners. 
The Paid Media business delivered a strong quarter with 
11% growth, increasing its revenue share income despite 
the previously mentioned headwinds. When adjusting 
for the impact of the sports win margin  and Brazilian 
regulatory transition, the business demonstrated signif-
icant underlying growth.  CPA revenues also increased 
by 21% during the quarter. We continue to see substan-
tial opportunities and scalability in this channel. As a 
data-rich and performance -led part of our business, 
Paid Media allows us to d eploy capital efficiently, test 
and scale new markets quickly, and strengthen relation-
ships with key partners. Combined with audience in-
sights from and user engagement learnings from Play-
book, Paid Media is becoming an increasingly powerful 
growth engine i n our diversified revenue model -  ena-
bling us to combine predictable recurring revenue from 
revenue share with flexible, high-return campaigns that 
adapt to changing market dynamics. 
In our Esports business, HLTV continues to perform 
strongly, supported by sustained high demand for its 
premium inventory and audience reach. FUTBIN, on the 
other hand, has faced a challenging year, impacted by 
declining market CPM rates. Encouragingly, the new 
EAFC 26 game, launched in September, is showing solid

===== SIDA 10 =====

Q3 report 2025 Page 10  
early engagement, providing a positive outlook for 
FUTBIN heading into the new game cycle. 
As we look ahead, I am confident about the path we are 
on. The foundation we have built over the years - rooted 
in technology, data, trusted partnerships, and recurring 
revenue - is now converging with new AI -driven capa-
bilities that are transforming how we engage with fans, 
strengthening our long -term strategic relevance in the 
ecosystem.  
None of this progress would be possible without the in-
credible commitment and adaptability of our colleagues 
across Better Collective. This past year has demanded 
focus and resilience as we continue to execute on the 
largest transformation in our history - evolving our busi-
ness, our technology, and our ways of working to match 
the scale of our ambitions and a rapidly changing mar-
ket. The dedication, creativity, and collaboration make 
me confident that we are well-equipped to seize the op-
portunities ahead.

Business review 
and financial 
performance 
Group 
The financial guidance for full -year 2025 remains un-
changed.  
Revenue decreased by 4% to 78 mEUR, with organic 
growth reflecting the same development. The perfor-
mance was in line with expectations when adjusting for 
the impact of an unusually low sports win margin.  
The main year-over-year drivers impacting performance 
during the quarter were as follows: 
1. Sports win margin:  Player-friendly results in Sep-
tember led to a record -low sports win margin for 
the month, negatively impacting Q3 revenue by ap-
proximately 10 mEUR compared to the same period 
last year.  
2. The Brazilian market:  Revenue share income from 
the Brazilian market continued to develop ahead of 
expectations, yet the ongoing regulatory transition 
had a negative impact of around 4 mEUR. 
3. Foreign exchange : FX movements negatively af-
fected revenue by approximately 2  mEUR during 
the quarter. 
4. North American revenue share: North American 
revenue share doubled and thus,  increased by 4 
mEUR, driven by the substantial unrecognized rev-
enue share accumulated since Q3 2022, when the  
US transition from upfront payments to recurring 
revenues began. 
5. Growth: Underlying business performance was 
strong, with several areas contributing to  solid 
growth of approximately 9 mEUR. The main drivers 
were Paid Media, Sports Media, and Talent-led Me-
dia.  
Organic growth in Q 3 for North America was 10%, and 
negative 8% for Europe & ROW.  Recurring revenue de-
clined by 5% to 50 mEUR, primarily driven by lower rev-
enue share stemming from the unfavorable sports win 
margin and the ongoing regulatory transition in Brazil. 
Since Q3 2022, Better Collective has been transitioning 
towards revenue share agreements in the North Ameri-
can market. While this shift has temporarily impacted 
reported revenue, it has built a strong foundation for fu-
ture recurring revenue to be recognize d in the coming 
quarters and years. During Q3, revenue share income in 
North America began to ramp up, doubling compared to 
the same period last year. Management expects revenue 
share income in North America to continue growing 
steadily, ultimately providi ng a more stable recurring 
revenue base, similar to the Group ’s established model 
in the rest of the world. 
CPM-based revenues remained flat during the quarter, 
reflecting market rates returning to normal levels after a 
weak H1. Better Collective sees early positive impact of 
several internal initiatives within AdVantage, which are 
expected to drive incremental growth in the coming 
quarters. 
CPA revenue overall remained stable during the quarter. 
Within Publishing, CPA declined due to lower activity in 
the North American market, while Paid Media achieved 
21% growth, driven primarily by strong performance 
among partners in North America and the UK. Sponsor-
ship mainly remained unchanged compared to the prior-
year period.  
Costs decreased by 2% year -over-year, remaining 
broadly in line with Q3 2024. It is important to note that 
the comparable quarter last year benefited from several 
one-off cost reductions of around 6 mEUR, including 
variable pay reversals, which were not pr esent in Q3 
2025. Furthermore, given the strong performance in the 
Paid Media business, it has increased its spend by 2 
mEUR. The cost reduction this year reflects the execu-
tion of the 50 mEUR cost-efficiency program initiated in

Publishing 
Publishing revenue declined 1 1% to 46 mEUR . Revenue 
share income was down 9% during the quarter, driven 
by the regulatory transition in Brazil and  by the sports 
win margin, which reached a record low in  September. 
CPA revenue declined 38%, driven by lower CPA activity 
mainly in the North American market.  
Subscription revenue was flat , whereas sponsorships 
declined 14% driven by postponed podcast shows. 
CPM revenue during the quarter was up 5%, which is 
outperforming the development of market rates. The 
performance was driven by  initiatives implemented by 
the company in previous quarters, enabling better sales 
of brand inventory.  
Costs decreased by 8%, reflecting the full impact of the 
efficiency program initiated last year.  
EBITDA before special items was 11 mEUR, down 18%, re-
flecting the full impact of the low sports win margin and 
the Brazilian impact . Publishing accounted for 59% of 
group revenue and 54% of group EBITDA before special 
items.

Paid Media  
Paid Media revenue increased by 11%, despite revenue 
share income being affected by the regulatory transition 
in Brazil and a low sports win margin during the quarter. 
When normalizing for these factors, the underlying rev-
enue share growth was significantly higher than the re-
ported 2%. CPA revenues grew by 21% during the quar-
ter, driven primarily by strong performance in the North 
American and UK markets with key partners. 
Costs increased by 9% during the quarter, as the Paid 
Media business continues to invest in building future 
revenue share income. 
EBITDA before special items increased by an impressive 
19% to 7 mEUR, despite the significant impact from both

Paid Media  
 
The Paid Media business involves pur-
chasing advertising on search engines, 
social media, and third-party sports 
media platforms. Because this requires 
upfront payments for advertising on 
external platforms, the gross margin is 
typically lower than that of the Publish-
ing business, due to substantial direct 
costs, and may fluctuate with the level 
of activity and investments into reve-
nue share NDCs.

Esports 
Esports revenue declined by 3% to 4 mEUR in the quar-
ter. Sponsorship revenue grew by 28%, reflecting  the 
continued strong demand for the HLTV brand. 
CPM revenue decreased by 23%, primarily due to lower 
player engagement in the FUTBIN community  during 
the final phase of the old EAFC game cycle, ahead of the 
new release. The early launch of EAFC 26 looks to be 
well-received by the community. 
Costs increased by 14%, driven by ongoing investments 
to support the future growth of both brands. 
EBITDA before special items amounted to 2 mEUR, cor-
responding to a margin of 53%. Esports contributed 6% 
of group revenue and 11% of group EBITDA before spe-
cial items.

78mEUR  
Revenue showed a decline versus Q3 2024 of 4% and 
amounted to 78 mEUR (Q3 2024: 81 mEUR). The perfor-

Q3 2024 
Costs decreased by 2% compared to the same period 
last year, remaining broadly in line with Q3 2024. It is

mEUR) and included net interest, fees relating to ba nk 
credit lines, refinancing , and unrealized exchange rate 
adjustments. These costs are impacted by an unrealized 
loss of 2 mEUR related to USD and GBP fluctuations.

mEUR (Q3 2024: 4 mEUR) and mainly relates to paid in-

pense of net to 2 mEUR (Q3 2024: 2 mEUR). The Effec-
tive Tax Rate was 54% (Q3 2024: 69%). The tax rate YTD

Risk management 
Through an Enterprise Risk Management process, vari-
ous gross risks in Better Collective are identified. Each 
risk is described, including current risk mitigation in 
place or planned mitigating actions. The subsequent 
analysis of the identified risks includ es an inherent risk 
evaluation based on two main parameters: probability 
of occurrence and impact on future earnings and cash 
flow. Better Collective’s management continuously 
monitors risk development in the Better Collective 
group. The risk evaluation is  presented to the Board of 
Directors annually. The board evaluates risk dynamically 
to account for this variation in risk impact. The policies 
and guidelines in place stipulate how management must 
work with risk management. 
Better Collective’s compliance with these policies and 
guidelines is also monitored by the management on an 
ongoing basis. Better Collective seeks to identify and 
understand risks and mitigate them accordingly. Also, 
Better Collective’s close and longstanding relationships 
with customers allow Better Collective to anticipate and 
respond to market movements and new regulations, in-
cluding compliance requirements from authorities and 
sportsbooks.  
With the continued expansion in North and South Amer-
ica, the overall  risk profile of Better Collective has 
changed, and compliance as well as financial risk ha ve 
increased. Better Collective has mitigated the additional 
risks in several ways, compliance risk through involve-
ment of regulatory bodies in our licensing process for 
newly established entities, financial risk through a per-
formance-based valuation of the acquired ent ities, and 
organizational risk through establishment of local gov-
ernance, and finance, HR, and legal organization dedi-
cated to the North  and South American  operations. 
Other key risk factors are described in the Annual report 
2024.

Notes 
1. General information 
Better Collective A/S is a limited liability company and is incorporated in Denmark. The parent company and its  
subsidiaries (referred to as the “Group” or “Better Collective”) engage in online performance marketing. Better Collective’s 
vision is to become the leading digital sports media group. 
Basis of preparation  
The Interim Report (condensed consolidated interim financial statements) for the period January 1 – September 30, 2025, 
has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim financial reporting ” as adopted by the EU and additional require-
ments in the Danish Financial Statements Act. The parent company condensed interim financial statements has been in-
cluded according to the Danish Executive Order on the Preparation of Interim Financial Reports. 
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements incorporate the results of Better Collective A/S and its subsid-
iaries. 
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements refer to certain key performance indicators, which Better Collec-
tive and others use when evaluating the performance of Better Collective. These are referred to as alternative performance 
measures (APMs) and are not defined under IFRS. The figures and related subtotals give management and investors im-
portant information to enable them to fully analyze the Better Collective business and trends. The APMs are not meant to 
replace but to complement the performance measures defined under IFRS. 
New financial reporting standards 
The IASB has issued several new or amended standards and interpretations with effective date beginning on January 1, 
2025. Better Collective expects to adopt the new standards and interpretations when they become mandatory.  
None of the standards are expected to have a significant effect for the consolidated financial statements or the parent 
financial statements for the financial year  2025. Better Collective is currently assessing the impact IFRS 18 will have on 
factors such as presentation of the income statement and cash flow statement and disclosures to be provided in the notes. 
 
Accounting policies  
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as set 
out in note 1 of the 2024 annual report which contains a full description of the accounting policies for Better Collective and 
the parent company.  
The annual report for 2024 including full description of the accounting policies can be found on Better Collective’s website: 
https://storage.mfn.se/5693126b-c889-4145-999f-f31afdfbfa8c/annual-report-2024-final-1.pdf 
Better Collective has implemented an organizational restructuring going from a local to a global management structure 
and transitioning from a geographical setup to a structure built around three global business units: Publishing, Paid Media, 
and Esports. Consequently, the revenue segmentation has been adjusted to align with this new structure. We refer to note 
2 for the new segmentation. Historical financial figures are reported accordingly. 
 
Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions 
The preparation of condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, esti-
mates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, assets, and liabilities. 
Beyond the risks mentioned above, the significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in these 
consolidated interim financial statements are the same as disclosed in note 2 in the annual report for 202 4 which  
contains a full description of significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions.

2. Operating segments 
Publishing , Paid Media  and Esport s 
Better Collective operates three distinct business models for customer acquisition, each with unique earnings profiles: 
Publishing, Paid Media, and Esports. Publishing generates revenue from Better Collective’s owned and operated sports 
media network and its media partnerships. Paid Media involves purchasing advertising on search engines, social media, 
and third-party sports media platforms, thereby operating with a lower gross margin. Due to recent organizational re-
structuring, Esports will be reported separately. Esports has been carved out from Publishing. This change reflects our 
strategic commitment to capitalizing on growth opportunities within Esports. 
The performance for each segment is presented in the below tables:

* In 2024 Better Collective and the founders and former owners of Playmaker HQ  agreed to renegotiate and settle the earn out due to 
underperformance from acquisition of SOME content producer and podcast maker Playmaker HQ (not to be confused with Playmaker 
Capital). The initial acquisition price of Playmaker HQ was 54mUSD of which 15mUSD was upfront cash. The final price agreed is 25mUSD  
(23m EUR). Consequently, Better Collective have performed an impairment test based on the reassessment, identifying an impair ment of 
20mUSD (18m EUR) for the CGU North America, recognized in Q2 2024. The net impact on special items is negative 2.4mEUR, resulting 
from the aforementioned goodwill impairment and the recognition of the remaining earn -out as income. 
Furthermore On October 28th, it was announced that Management has decided to streamline Better Collective’s business to identify and 
leverage synergies. Costs related to this amounted to 6 mEUR in Q4 2024, recognized as Special Items related to restructuring.

Better Collective uses and communicate certain Alternative Performance Measures (“APM”), which are not defined un-
der IFRS. Such are not to replace performance measures defined and under IFRS. The APM’s may not be indicative of 
the group’s historical operating results, nor are such measures meant to be predictive of the group’s future results. The 
group believes however that the APMs are useful supplemental indicators that may be used to assist in evaluating a 
company’s future operating performance, and its ability to service its debt. Accordingly, the APMs are disclosed to per-
mit a more complete and comprehensive analysis of the group’s operating performance, consistently with how the 
group’s business performance is evaluated by the Management. The group believes that the presentation of these APMs 
enhances an investor’s understanding of the group’s operating performance and the group’s ability to service its debt. 
Accordingly, the group discloses the APM’s to permit a more complete and comprehensive analysis of its operating 
performance relative to other companies and across periods, and of the group’s ability to service its debt. However, 
these APM’s may be calculated differently by other companies and may not be comparable with APM’s with similarly 
titled measures used by other companies. The group’s APMs are not measurements of financial performance under IFRS 
and should not be considered as alternatives to other indicators of the Company’s operating performance, cash flows or 
any other measures of performance derived in accordance with IFRS. T he group’s APM’s have important limitations as 
analytical tools, and they should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the group’s results of 
operations as reported under IFRS. Our currently applied APM’s are summarized and described below. 
Alternative Performance Measures 
Alternative  
Performance Measure Description SCOPE 
Operating profit  
before amortization 
(EBITA) 
Operating profit plus amortizations Better Collective reports this APM to allow mon-
itoring and evaluation of the Group’s operational

ability to create a free cash flow. 
Alternative  
Performance Measure Description SCOPE

EBITDA adjusted for special items This APM supports the assessment and monitor-
ing of the Group’s performance as well as profit-
ability excluding special items that do no stem 
from ongoing operations, providing a more com-
parable measure over time. 
Operating profit  
before amortizations  
and special items  
margin (%) 
Operating profit before amortizations and 
special items / revenue 
This APM supports the assessment and monitor-
ing of the Group’s performance as well as profit-

parable measure over time. 
Special items Items that are considered not part of on-
going business 
Items that are not part of ongoing business, e.g.

ments of earn-out payments. 
Net Debt / EBITDA  
before special items 
(Interest bearing debt, minus cash and 
cash equivalents) / EBITDA before special 
items on rolling twelve months basis 
This ratio is used to describe the horizon for pay 
back of the interest -bearing debt and measures 
the leverage of the funding. 
Liquidity ratio Current Assets / Current Liabilities Measures the ability of the group to pay its cur-
rent liabilities using current assets. 
Equity to assets ratio Equity / Total Assets Reported to show how much of the assets in the 
company is funded by equity

ability to convert profits to cash 
NDC New depositing customers A key figure to reflect the Group’s ability to fuel 
long-term revenue and organic growth

Q3 report 2025 Page 39  
Alternative  
Performance Measure Description SCOPE 
Recurring revenue Recurring revenue is a combined set of 
revenues that is defined as recurring as 
management considers that the sources of 
these revenue streams will continuously 
generate revenue over a variable period of 
time and size e.g. if players continue to bet 
with gaming operators with which BC has 
revenue share agreements, customers 
continue current subscriptions or if BC on 
a current basis receive revenues from cus-
tomers having current marketing agree-
ments in respect of banners, etc. on the 
group’s websites. Accord ingly, it includes 
Revenue share income, CPM /Advertising 
and subscription revenues. 
The group reports this APM to distinguish be-
tween what management consider as recurring 
revenue streams and what management con-
sider as non-recurring revenue streams, e.g. rev-
enues reflecting one-time settlements with gam-
ing operators. 
CLV The Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) shows 
expected revenue generated throughout 
the lifetime of a New Depositing Cus-
tomer (NDC). This measure is pivotal for 
understanding how much value a NDC is 
anticipated to bring to the Group. The 
prerequisites going into the CLV are a 
number of factors such as average value, 
average frequency, NDC lifespan and 
churn rate. 
 
Average revenue per NDC x NDC lifespan 
A key figure to assess the value of NDCs gener-
ated by the Group, providing critical insights into 
NDC profitability. It allows the Group to identify 
the most valuable segments and optimize mar-
keting strategies accordingly.
