Charles Gillespie, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Gambling.com Group, commented, “The business performed phenomenally in the second quarter with record operating results reflecting another quarter of significant organic revenue growth and strong Free Cash Flow generation. The growth highlights our success in scaling our North American operations as well as continued growth in our more established markets. New depositing customers rose 60% year-over-year to over 91,000, which helped drive a 63% revenue increase to $26.0 million, 161% growth in Adjusted EBITDA to $9.4 million, and $8.5 million of Free Cash Flow.

“Despite North America already being our largest reporting market, it still represents a significant growth opportunity for Gambling.com Group and we remain very confident in our ability to continue to increase market share in existing states as they continue to grow. This expected growth will be complemented by an overall expansion of the addressable market as new states such as North Carolina and Kentucky come online with sports betting, and iGaming is authorized in additional states. As we continue to scale our North American operations, Gambling.com Group will benefit from other attractive near- and long-term growth drivers, including valuable media partnerships with leading domestic digital media publishers, McClatchy and Gannett, and the significant long-term global opportunity provided by the recently launched Casinos.com. In addition, we are well positioned to continue growing in our more established markets where we continue to take market share and have signed our first international media partnership with The Independent for the U.K. market.

“With each quarter of consistent profitable organic growth delivered by Gambling.com Group, we are demonstrating the benefits of what we believe to be the most attractive business model in the industry as we leverage our many growth drivers and capital efficiency. Our excellence in SEO and proprietary data science allows us to consistently generate top-line growth, Adjusted EBITDA margins that exceed 30%, and strong Free Cash Flow conversion. As a result, we are confident Gambling.com Group will continue to create added value for our shareholders, clients and our valued team members.”
Second Quarter 2023 and Recent Business Highlights

Grew North American revenue 115% to $13.4 million
Delivered more than 91,000 new depositing customers
Entered into first international media partnership with The Independent, one of the U.K.’s largest digital media publishers with more than 20 million unique monthly users
Negotiated a final, deferred consideration payment of €18 million related the acquisition of BonusFinder in exchange for the early termination of the earn-out period, providing the Company with the ability to accelerate the realization of synergies
Repurchased 77,683 ordinary shares at an average price of $9.83 per share

Elias Mark, Chief Financial Officer of Gambling.com Group, added, “The operating leverage we generated on 63% year-over-year revenue growth and 161% Adjusted EBITDA growth in the second quarter grew Free Cash Flow growth of 202% to $8.5 million. As a result, we have significant flexibility to simultaneously continue to strategically invest in growth opportunities, including the buildout of Casinos.com and the development of our media partnerships, and to evaluate strategic transactions that we believe create new shareholder value. Reflecting our strong operating results through the first six months of the year, which outperformed our expectations, and our confidence for continued strong performance over the balance of 2023, we are raising our full year revenue and Adjusted EBITDA outlook with the mid-point of the new ranges representing year-over-year growth of 33% and 58%, respectively.”
2023 Outlook

The Company raised its full-year 2023 revenue guidance to between $100 million and $104 million, and Adjusted EBITDA guidance to between $36 million and $40 million. The Company’s guidance assumes:

Kentucky goes live on September 28th with online sports betting
Beyond Kentucky, no online sports betting or iGaming going live in any additional North American markets for the balance of 2023
No contribution from any new acquisitions
New investments throughout 2023 for the development of Casinos.com and support to our media partners, including Gannett, McClatchy and The Independent

Supplemental Information
Rounding
We have made rounding adjustments to some of the figures included in the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto. Accordingly, numerical figures shown as totals in some tables may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the figures that preceded them.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Management uses several financial measures, both IFRS and non-IFRS financial measures in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of the business and for making operational decisions.
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share

Adjusted net income is a non-IFRS financial measure defined as net income attributable to equity holders excluding the fair value gain or loss related to contingent consideration, unwinding of deferred consideration, and certain employee bonuses related to acquisitions. Adjusted net income per diluted share is a non-IFRS financial measure defined as adjusted net income attributable to equity holders divided by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

We believe adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are useful to our management as a measure of comparative performance from period to period as these measures remove the effect of the fair value gain or loss related to the contingent consideration, unwinding of deferred consideration, and certain employee bonuses, all associated with our acquisitions, during the limited period where these items are incurred. We expect to incur gains or losses related to the contingent consideration and expenses related to the unwinding of deferred consideration and employee bonuses until December 2023. See Note 5 of the
8


consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2023 for a description of the contingent and deferred considerations associated with our acquisitions.
Below is a reconciliation to Adjusted net income attributable to equity holders and Adjusted net income per share, diluted from net income for the period attributable to the equity holders and net income per share attributed to ordinary shareholders, diluted as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and for the period specified stated in the Company's reporting currency and constant currency:

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure defined as earnings excluding interest, income tax (charge) credit, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure defined as EBITDA adjusted to exclude the effect of non-recurring items, significant non-cash items, share-based payment expense, foreign exchange gains (losses), fair value of contingent consideration, and other items that our board of directors
9


believes do not reflect the underlying performance of the business including acquisition related expenses, such as acquisition related costs and bonuses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a non-IFRS measure defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful to our management team as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period as those measures remove the effect of items not directly resulting from our core operations including effects that are generated by differences in capital structure, depreciation, tax effects and non-recurring events.
While we use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as tools to enhance our understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance, we do not believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are substitutes for, or superior to, the information provided by IFRS results. As such, the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with IFRS. The primary limitations associated with the use of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as compared to IFRS results are that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as we define them may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry and that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may exclude financial information that some investors may consider important in evaluating our performance.

In regard to forward looking non-IFRS guidance, we are not able to reconcile the forward-looking non-IFRS Adjusted EBITDA measure to the closest corresponding IFRS measure without unreasonable efforts because we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of certain significant items including, but not limited to, fair value movements, share-based payments for future awards, acquisition-related expenses and certain financing and tax items.
Free Cash Flow
Free Cash Flow is a non-IFRS liquidity financial measure defined as cash flow from operating activities adjusted for non-recurring items within operating cash flow less capital expenditures.
We believe Free Cash Flow is useful to our management team as a measure of financial performance as it measures our ability to generate additional cash from our operations. While we use Free Cash Flow as a tool to enhance our understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance, we do not believe that Free Cash Flow is a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by IFRS metrics. As such, the presentation of Free Cash Flow is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The primary limitation associated with the use of Free Cash Flow as compared to IFRS metrics is that Free Cash Flow does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures because the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Free Cash Flow as we define it also may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in the online gambling affiliate industry.
