First Quarter 2021 vs First Quarter 2020 Financial Highlights:

$14.3 million , derived from Coolbet’s existing and proven international sports betting and casino gaming operations. Key performance indicators remain at exceptional levels. -

Net loss of
$4.5 million versus net income of$0.7 million , driven primarily by increased amortization related to acquired intangibles from the Coolbet acquisition ($2.9 million ), increased share-based compensation ($1.2 million ), and operating expenses related to marketing, organizational expansion to meet market and customer demand, and costs related to regulatory requirements. -
Adjusted EBITDA of
$1.7 million versus$2.5 million . The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by increased operating costs in the current year related to regulatory requirements and organizational expansion to meet market and customer demand. -
