Rhea-AI Filing Summary

DoubleDown Interactive reported strong unaudited results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Revenue rose 11.2% to $94.3 million, driven mainly by social casino/free-to-play revenue of $77.3 million and iGaming revenue of $17.0 million. Direct-to-Consumer channels expanded sharply, with DTC revenue reaching $40.5 million and accounting for 52.4% of social casino revenue, up from 15.4% a year earlier, helped by the WHOW Games acquisition. SuprNation’s iGaming business also grew revenue by 9.8%, supported by the Los Vegas brand.

Profit attributable to shareholders increased 50.5% to $32.9 million, with diluted EPS of $13.27 per common share ($0.66 per ADS). Adjusted EBITDA rose to $39.3 million, with margin improving to 41.6%. Key social casino KPIs improved, including a higher payer conversion ratio of 9.4% and ARPDAU of $1.42, though average monthly revenue per payer declined to $218. Operating cash flow was robust at $24.6 million for the quarter and $71.0 million for the first half, supporting cash and cash equivalents of $455.2 million and what management describes as an aggregate net cash position of $521 million. A special committee continues to evaluate a non-binding proposal from the controlling shareholder to acquire the remaining ADSs at $11.25 per ADS.

  • First-half net cash inflow from operating activities reached $71.0 million, supporting strong internal cash generation.
  • Cash and cash equivalents of $455.2 million and management’s stated $521 million aggregate net cash position provide significant financial flexibility.
  • Direct-to-Consumer revenue rose to $40.5 million and reached 52.4% of social casino revenue, reducing reliance on third-party platforms.
  • Social casino KPIs strengthened, with payer conversion up to 9.4% and ARPDAU up to $1.42, supporting higher monetization per active user.

Filing Explained

The filing extends related-party debt to May 27, 2028, while reporting no change in common shares outstanding.

As a foreign private issuer’s interim report, Form 6-K furnishes material home-market information; here, DoubleDown Interactive furnished unaudited second-quarter and six-month statements for the period ended June 30, 2026. The report was incorporated by reference into the company’s Form F-3 registration statement on August 11, 2026, making its contents part of that registration statement, but the filing does not report an offering, sale, or new share issuance.

The statements list 2,477,672 common shares issued and outstanding at June 30, 2026, unchanged from December 31, 2025. Accordingly, this filing does not establish a change in the disclosed share count or dilution for existing holders; dilution would result from issuing additional shares absent offsetting changes.

Separately, DoubleU Games’ related-party 4.6% senior notes had principal outstanding at June 30, 2026; after a voluntary $3.1 million interest payment in May 2026, their maturity was extended to May 27, 2028.

The extension changes the stated maturity date but leaves the related-party repayment obligation outstanding.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA rose 17.2% to $39.3 million for the second quarter of 2026"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
Direct-to-Consumer financial
"Direct-to-Consumer (“DTC”) revenue represents revenue from purchases made through Company-owned channels"
A direct-to-consumer (DTC) model is when a company sells its products or services straight to customers, skipping middlemen like retailers or wholesalers. For investors, DTC matters because it can mean higher profit margins, closer customer relationships and faster feedback—like a baker who sells directly from the shop instead of through a grocery chain—while also exposing the business to costs for marketing, customer support and logistics that affect growth and profitability.
Payer Conversion ratio financial
"Payer Conversion ratio for the Company’s social casino/free-to-play games increased to 9.4%"
iGaming financial
"In October 2023, the Company acquired an iGaming operator, SuprNation AB"
iGaming involves playing betting or casino-style games over the internet, allowing people to wager money on digital platforms. It matters to investors because it represents a rapidly growing segment of the entertainment industry, driven by technological advances and changing consumer habits, which can lead to new revenue opportunities and market expansion.
contract liabilities financial
"Contract liabilities are summarized with balances of $1,722 and $1,861"
Contract liabilities are amounts a company has been paid in advance for goods or services it still owes to customers — think of them like gift cards or prepaid subscriptions the company must fulfill later. For investors, they show promised future work or deliveries that will turn into revenue over time, reveal cash already collected, and help assess whether a firm has a backlog of obligations that could affect future earnings and cash flow.
defined benefit pension plan financial
"We operate a defined benefit pension plan under employment regulations in Korea"
A defined benefit pension plan is a retirement program that promises participants a specific monthly payment in retirement, usually based on salary and years worked, with the employer responsible for funding and making up any shortfall. Think of it as the company guaranteeing a steady paycheck in retirement while handling the investments and risks. Investors care because shortfalls become long-term liabilities that can require large cash contributions, affect profitability and borrowing costs, and add uncertainty to a company’s financial health.

Revenue from the Company’s social casino/free-to-play games was $77.3 million in the second quarter of 2026, an 11.5% increase from the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily due to contributions from WHOW Games GmbH (“WHOW Games”), which was acquired by the Company in July 2025.
Direct-to-Consumer (“DTC”)1 revenue rose to $40.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $10.7 million in the second quarter of 2025. DTC revenue as a percentage of total social casino revenue increased to 52.4% in the second quarter of 2026 from 15.4% in the second quarter of 2025.
Revenue from SuprNation, the Company’s iGaming subsidiary, increased 9.8% year over year to $17.0 million, primarily as a result of the continued success of the Company’s newest brand, Los Vegas.
Operating expenses were $57.8 million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $52.4 million in the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to the inclusion of operating expenses of WHOW Games.
Profit for the interim period (excluding non-controlling interest) rose 50.5% to $32.9 million, or earnings per fully diluted common share of $13.27 ($0.66 per American Depositary Share (“ADS”)), in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $21.8 million, or earnings per fully diluted common share of $8.82 ($0.44 per ADS), in the second quarter of 2025.
The increase was primarily due to higher revenue, higher unrealized gain on foreign currency, and lower cost of revenue attributable to a higher proportion of DTC revenue, partially offset by higher overall operating expenses, which were primarily due to the inclusion of WHOW Games, and increased costs to support SuprNation’s revenue growth.
Each ADS represents 0.05 share of a common share.
Adjusted EBITDA rose 17.2% to $39.3 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $33.5 million in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 41.6% in the second quarter of 2026, compared to 39.5% in the second quarter of 2025.
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, social casino KPIs are inclusive of those from WHOW Games.
Payer Conversion ratio for the Companys social casino/free-to-play games increased to 9.4% in the second quarter of 2026 from 7.0% in the second quarter of 2025, primarily as a result of the inclusion of WHOW Games, which has a higher Payer Conversion ratio.
1 Direct-to-Consumer revenue represents revenue from purchases made through Company-owned channels, including web storefront transactions and other direct payment flows.



Average Revenue Per Daily Active User (“ARPDAU”) for the Company’s social casino/free-to-play games increased to $1.42 in the second quarter of 2026 from $1.33 in the second quarter of 2025, primarily as a result of the inclusion of WHOW Games, which has a higher ARPDAU.
Average monthly revenue per payer for the social casino/free-to-play games decreased to $218 in the second quarter of 2026 from $286 in the second quarter of 2025, primarily as a result of the inclusion of WHOW Games, which has a lower average revenue per payer.
Net cash flows from operating activities increased to $24.6 million in the second quarter of 2026 from $19.7 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase is primarily due to lower income taxes paid.


"Our double-digit year-over-year revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth in the second quarter reflect our teams continued focus on operational excellence," said In Keuk Kim, Chief Executive Officer of DoubleDown. "These strong quarterly results highlight ongoing growth in our Direct-to-Consumer segment, which now accounts for over 50% of total social casino revenue. Performance was driven by contributions from WHOW Games, solid growth in our core social casino business that we believe outpaced the broader market, and continued year-over-year momentum from SuprNation, our iGaming business, following the successful launch of our 'Los Vegas' brand.

"Our ability to consistently drive a high conversion of revenue to cash flow remains a top operating priority, resulting in $24.6 million of net cash flow from operations in the second quarter and a total of $71.0 million for the first half of 2026. As we look to the second half of 2026, we are well positioned to build upon our success. With an aggregate net cash position of $521 million, DoubleDown's strong balance sheet provides us with substantial financial flexibility to pursue strategic growth opportunities as well as additional value-building initiatives and transactions for our shareholders."

Update on Unsolicited Non-Binding Expression of Interest from Controlling Shareholder
We refer you to our April 29, 2026 press release, in which we announced that the Company received a non-binding expression of interest from DoubleU Games Co. Ltd., our controlling shareholder, to acquire all of the outstanding common shares (including American Depositary Shares) not currently owned thereby, at a price of $11.25 per ADS in cash. We noted in that press release that the Company formed a special committee to evaluate and negotiate with the controlling shareholder and determine the next steps that would be in the best interests of the Company and its unaffiliated shareholders. As a result, while we appreciate there are many questions from our shareholders about this proposal, neither



the Company nor its management intends to make any further announcements unless and until the Company or the special committee determine otherwise. The communications and inquiries received by the Company from shareholders are being forwarded to the special committee, which (in consultation with its legal and financial advisors) will evaluate as part of its ongoing review and evaluation process. The special committee will handle the proposal and there can be no assurance that a transaction will or will not occur and, if so, on what terms. Meanwhile, the Company continues to conduct its business and operations in the ordinary course.

Safe Harbor Statement
Certain statements contained in this press release are “forward-looking statements” about future events and expectations for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions, and expectations of industry trends, our future financial and operating performance, and our growth plans, taking into account the information currently available to us. These statements are not statements of historical fact. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. While our management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on such statements. Words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “continues,” “estimates,” “expects,” “goal,” “objectives,” “intends,” “may,” “opportunity,” “plans,” “potential,” “near-term,” long-term,” “projections,” “assumptions,” “projects,” “guidance,” “forecasts,” “outlook,” “target,” “trends,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “will,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. We qualify any forward-looking statements entirely by these cautionary factors. We assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements for any reason or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.
Use and Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with IFRS, we believe the following non-IFRS financial measure is useful in evaluating our operating performance. We present “adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization” (“Adjusted EBITDA”) because we believe it assists investors and analysts by facilitating comparison of period-to-period operational performance on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. The items excluded from the Adjusted EBITDA may have a material impact on our financial results. Certain of those items are non-recurring, while others are non-cash in nature. Accordingly, the Adjusted EBITDA is presented as supplemental disclosure and should not be considered in isolation of, as a substitute for, or



superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS, and should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated interim financial statements furnished in our report on Form 6-K filed with the SEC.
In our reconciliation from our reported IFRS “profit before income tax” to our Adjusted EBITDA, we eliminate the impact of the following four line items: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) finance income; (iii) finance cost; and (iv) other (income) expense. The below table sets forth the full reconciliation of our non-IFRS measures:

Adjusted EBITDA$39.3 $33.5 $77.5 $64.2 
Adjusted EBITDA margin41.6 %39.5 %41.1 %38.2 %
The key differences between reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin under IFRS and under GAAP arise from the treatment of certain adjustments, particularly in the areas of depreciation and amortization, finance income, and finance cost per the respective accounting standards. For reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin under IFRS, depreciation related to right-of-use assets is included within the depreciation and amortization, and as such, is added back to Adjusted EBITDA in the reconciliation. In contrast, for reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin under GAAP, depreciation related to right-of-use assets is classified under general and administrative expenses, and thus, is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA in the reconciliation. The designation of finance income and finance cost in reconciliation under IFRS reflects a change in the classification of non-operating (income) expense in reconciliation under GAAP. Specifically, the non-operating (income) expense accounts under GAAP have been renamed to finance income and finance cost under IFRS.
We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

DoubleDown Interactive Co., Ltd.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (unaudited)
1.    General information
Background and nature of operations
DoubleDown Interactive Co., Ltd. (“DDI,” “we,” “us,” “Parent Company,” “our” or “the Company,” formerly known as The8Games Co., Ltd.) was incorporated in 2008 in Seoul, Korea as an interactive entertainment studio, focused on the development and publishing of casual games and mobile applications. DDI is a subsidiary of DoubleU Games Co., Ltd. (“DUG” or “DoubleU Games”), a Korean company and our controlling shareholder holding 67.1% of our outstanding shares. In 2017, DDI acquired DoubleDown Interactive LLC (“DDI-US”) from International Gaming Technologies (“IGT”) for approximately $825 million. DDI-US is our primary revenue-generating company. In October 2023, the Company acquired an iGaming operator, SuprNation AB (together with its subsidiaries, “SuprNation”), which is now a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of DDI-US. The acquisition diversifies the digital games categories that the Company addresses with the addition of four real-money iGaming sites in Europe. In July 2025, the Company acquired WHOW Games GmbH, a social casino developer headquartered in Hamburg, Germany (“WHOW Games”), which is now a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of DDI-US. In September 2025, DDI-US completed the conversion from a Washington limited liability company to a Nevada limited liability company.
We develop and publish digital gaming contents on various mobile and web platforms through our multi-format interactive all-in-one game experience concept. We host DoubleDown Casino, DoubleDown Classic, and DoubleDown Fort Knox within various formats, SuprNation’s four brands, Duelz, VoodooDreams, NYSpins and Los Vegas on web platforms, and WHOW Games’ proprietary brands, mainly MyJackpot and Lounge777, and licensed brand, mainly Merkur24, on both web and mobile platforms.
On September 2, 2021, we completed our initial public offering (“IPO”) of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), each representing 0.05 share of a common share, with par value of ₩10,000 per share, of the Company. Our ADSs trade on the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) under the symbol “DDI.”
2.    Basis of preparation and material accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in conformity with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by International Accounting Standard Board (“IASB”), and include the accounts of DDI and its controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions, balances, and unrealized gains or losses have been eliminated. Our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature necessary for the fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. The results for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of those for the full year. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience, and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced may differ materially and adversely from these estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future operating results may be affected.
F-6


The significant accounting estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the estimation method used in determining income tax expense.
The income tax expense for the interim period is calculated by applying the estimated average annual effective tax rate to the profit before tax for the period.
Accounting policies
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the adoption of new standards or interpretations effective from January 1, 2026.
New standards and interpretations adopted during the interim period
Amendments to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and IFRS 9 Financial Instruments - Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments
The amendments to IFRS 7 and IFRS 9 clarify the classification and measurement of financial assets, including the assessment of the solely payments of principal and interest criterion for financial assets with ESG-linked features. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company has applied the amendments retrospectively to the earliest comparative period presented. The adoption of these amendments does not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

13.    Commitments and contingencies
13.1.    Publishing and license agreements
DoubleU Games
We entered into the DoubleU Games License Agreement on March 7, 2018 with DoubleU Games through DDI-US, pursuant to which DoubleU Games grants us, an exclusive license to develop and distribute certain DoubleU Games social casino game titles and sequels thereto in the social online game field of use. We are obligated to pay a royalty license fee to DoubleU Games in connection with these rights, with certain customary terms and conditions. As of June 30, 2026, we licensed from DUG approximately 77 game titles under the terms of this agreement.
In October 2023, we, through DDI-US, entered into a Game Development Services Agreement with DoubleU Games pursuant to which DDI-US will pay service fees to DoubleU Games for certain game maintenance services and product planning and user analysis services provided by DoubleU Games.
In October 2024, we, through DDI-US, entered into a Game Development Agreement with DoubleU Games, pursuant to which DoubleU Games would develop certain social casino game software and titles for us in exchange for development fees.
We, through SuprPlay Limited, also entered into a new game license agreement with DoubleU Games with effect from August 20, 2024. We are obligated to pay a royalty license fee to DoubleU Games in connection with these rights, with certain customary terms and conditions.
International Gaming Technologies (“IGT”)
In 2017, we entered into a Game Development, Distribution, and Services Agreement with IGT. Under the terms of the agreement, IGT will deliver game assets so that we can port (a process of converting the assets into functioning slot games by platform) the technology for inclusion in our gaming apps. The agreement includes game assets that are used to create new games. Under the agreement, we paid IGT an initial royalty rate of 10% of revenue for their proprietary assets and 15% of revenue for third-party game asset types. Effective January 1, 2019, we amended the agreement to revise the royalty rate for proprietary game asset types to 7.5% of revenue. The initial term of the agreement is ten (10) years with up to two additional five-year periods. Costs incurred in connection with this agreement for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 totaled $1.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively, and are recognized as a component of cost of revenue.
13.2.    Legal contingencies
As of the date of this report, in the United States, the Company is a defendant or involved as an interested party in several pending lawsuits and arbitrations alleging that its social casino-themed games constitute illegal gambling under applicable state laws and seeking to recover amounts paid by the residents of the applicable state in connection with such games. The Company denies the allegations, and contends that its games are not gambling under the applicable law and that the cases suffer from various procedural defects. At this time, the Company is unable to reasonably predict the outcome of these legal proceedings and cannot estimate what impact, if any, the litigation may have on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
13.3.    Directors and Officers’ indemnification agreement
The Company’s maximum aggregate liability for all loss and expenses on account of any and all requests for indemnity under the Indemnification Agreement or any similar indemnity agreement with any other indemnitee will be $5,000,000 per every 12-month period.

13.4.    Other matters
IGT Letter
In March 2025, DDI-US received a letter from IGT (“IGT Letter”) purporting to terminate the Company’s licenses to develop and distribute IGT social casino game titles throughout the United States. The IGT Letter cited the January 2025 public memo issued by the Washington State Gambling Commission (“WSGC”), where the WSGC encouraged companies offering virtual casino-style games to Washington residents to review their games and ensure compliance with state gambling regulations. The Company responded to the IGT Letter in April 2025, disputing the termination, and has not received any subsequent response from IGT to date. While the outcome of this matter is currently uncertain, the Company believes that IGT has no basis to terminate the licenses and that the Company’s distribution of the licensed games is not prohibited under Washington State law.
SuprNation Performance Based Compensation
Contemporaneously with entering into the definitive agreement, the Company also adopted an eighteen-month performance-based incentive plan for certain key employees of SuprNation, under which the key employees may earn up to a total of $6.5 million in addition to $5.5 million held in escrow, which vest over the eighteen-month period. The performance-based incentive plan is contingent upon the achievement of certain revenue and other performance targets by the acquired business and the continued employment of such key employees between 2023 and 2025. Such plan became effective at the closing of the transaction. In August 2024, $4.2 million of the incentive plan was modified to be contingent solely upon continued employment. All of the compensation under the plan has been paid as of March 2026.
Unsolicited Non-Binding Expression of Interest from Controlling Shareholder
On April 29, 2026, the Company received a non-binding expression of interest from DoubleU Games Co. Ltd., its controlling shareholder, to acquire all outstanding common shares (including American Depositary Shares) not already owned by DoubleU Games for $11.25 per ADS in cash. The special committee of independent directors, together with its independent legal and financial advisors, continues to evaluate the proposal. Any potential transaction remains subject to applicable regulatory approvals, governmental and other required approvals, and the outcome of negotiations between the parties. Accordingly, the structure and terms of any such transaction may change, or no definitive transaction may ultimately be completed.
