Offer to Exchange Public Warrants to Acquire Ordinary Shares

Super Group (SGHC) Limited

for

Ordinary Shares

Super Group (SGHC) Limited

and

Consent Solicitation

THE OFFER PERIOD (AS DEFINED BELOW) AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS WILL EXPIRE AT 12:01 A.M., EASTERN TIME, ON DECEMBER 12, 2022, OR SUCH LATER TIME AND DATE TO WHICH WE MAY EXTEND.

Terms of the Offer and Consent Solicitation

Until the Expiration Date (as defined below), we are offering to the holders of our outstanding public warrants, (as defined below) to purchase Ordinary Shares, no par value per share (“Ordinary Shares”), of Super Group (SGHC) Limited (the “Company”), the opportunity to receive 0.25 Ordinary Shares in exchange for each of our outstanding public warrants tendered by the holder thereof and exchanged pursuant to the offer (the “Offer”).

The Offer is being made to all holders of our public warrants. Each public warrant holder whose public warrants are exchanged pursuant to the Offer will receive 0.25 Ordinary Shares for each public warrant tendered by such holder and exchanged. No fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued pursuant to the Offer. In lieu of issuing fractional shares to any holder of public warrants who would otherwise have been entitled to receive fractional shares pursuant to the Offer, the Company will round the number of shares to which such holder is entitled, after aggregating all fractions, up to the next whole number of shares.

Concurrently with the Offer, we are also soliciting consents (the “Consent Solicitation”, and together with the Offer, the “Offer and Consent Solicitation”) from holders of (i) public warrants and (ii) private placement warrants (as defined below) (jointly, the “warrants” or each a “warrant”) to amend the Warrant Agreement (as defined below) (the “Warrant Amendment”), which governs all of the warrants, to permit the Company to (i) require that each outstanding public warrant upon the closing of the Offer be converted into 0.225 Ordinary Shares (a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer) and (ii) instruct the warrant agent (as defined below) to cancel each outstanding private placement warrant for no consideration. The Warrant Amendment will permit us to eliminate all of the warrants that remain outstanding after the Offer is completed. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, all except certain specified modifications or amendments require the vote or written consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private placement warrants or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, the vote or written consent of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants and at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants.

The warrants are governed by the warrant agreement, dated as of October 6, 2020 (the “Warrant Agreement”), by and between Sports Entertainment Acquisition Corp. and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust

Company, as warrant agent. Our Ordinary Shares and public warrants are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbols “SGHC” and “SGHC WS,” respectively. As of November 9, 2022, a total of 33,499,986 warrants were outstanding, consisting of 22,499,986 public warrants and 11,000,000 private placement warrants. Pursuant to the Offer, we are offering up to an aggregate of 5,624,997 Ordinary Shares in exchange for the public warrants.

The Offer and Consent Solicitation is made solely upon the terms and conditions in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and in the related letter of transmittal and consent (as it may be supplemented and amended from time to time, the “Letter of Transmittal and Consent”). One of the conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation is that (i) holders of at least 50% of then outstanding public warrants tender their warrants in the Offer, and thereby consent to the Warrant Amendment, and (ii) holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment. Holders of public warrants may not consent to the Warrant Amendment without tendering their public warrants in the Offer and may not tender such warrants without consenting to the Warrant Amendment. The consent to the Warrant Amendment is a part of the Letter of Transmittal and Consent. Holders who tender public warrants for exchange in the Offer will automatically be deemed, without any further action, to have given their consent to approval of the Warrant Amendment (effective upon our acceptance of the tendered warrants). Public warrant holders may revoke their consent at any time prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below) by withdrawing the public warrants tendered in the Offer. Private placement warrant holders that consent to the Warrant Amendment may not revoke their consent. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, all except certain specified modifications or amendments require the vote or written consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private placement warrants or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, the vote or written consent of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants and at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants.

Parties representing approximately 22.5% of the outstanding public warrants have agreed to tender their warrants in the Offer and to consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation, and approximately 59.5% of the outstanding private placement warrants have agreed to consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation pursuant to a tender and support agreement (the “Tender and Support Agreement”). Accordingly, if holders of an additional approximately 27.5% of the outstanding public warrants tender their public warrants in the Offer and consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation and the other conditions described herein are satisfied or waived, then the Offer will be consummated and the Warrant Amendment will be adopted. For additional detail regarding the Tender and Support Agreement, see “Market Information, Dividends and Related Shareholder Matters — Transactions and Agreements Concerning Our Securities — Tender and Support Agreement.” Additionally, conditional on the completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, each of the Pre-Closing Holders (as defined in that certain Business Combination Agreement (as defined below)) have agreed to irrevocably and unconditionally waive their respective rights to receive Earnout Shares (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) arising from the earnout obligation subject to and with effect from completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

The Offer and Consent Solicitation will be open until 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on December 12, 2022, or such later time and date to which we may extend (the period during which the Offer and Consent Solicitation is open, giving effect to any withdrawal or extension, is referred to as the “Offer Period,” and the date and time at which the Offer Period ends is referred to as the “Expiration Date”). The Offer and Consent Solicitation is not made to those holders who reside in states or other jurisdictions where an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

We may withdraw the Offer and Consent Solicitation only if the conditions to the Offer and Consent Solicitation are not satisfied or waived prior to the Expiration Date. Promptly upon any such withdrawal, we will return the tendered public warrants to the public warrant holders and any related consents to the Warrant Amendment will be revoked. One of the conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation is that (i) holders of at least 50% of then outstanding public warrants tender their warrants in the Offer, and thereby consent to the Warrant Amendment, and (ii) holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, all except certain

specified modifications or amendments require the vote or written consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private placement warrants or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, the vote or written consent of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants and at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants.

Public warrant holders may tender some or all of their warrants into the Offer. Holders participating in the Offer and Consent Solicitation shall follow the instructions in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and the related documents, including the Letter of Transmittal and Consent. Holders of tendered public warrants may withdraw such warrants at any time before the Expiration Date. and retain them on their current terms or amended terms if the Warrant Amendment is approved, by following the instructions in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange. In addition, tendered warrants that are not accepted by us for exchange by January 10, 2023, may thereafter be withdrawn by public warrant holders until such time as the warrants are accepted by us for exchange. If public warrant holders withdraw the tender of their warrants, their warrants and consent to the Warrant Amendment will be withdrawn as a result. Holders of private placement warrants that consent to the Warrant Amendment may not revoke their consent.

Public warrants not exchanged for Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Offer will remain outstanding subject to their current terms or amended terms if the Warrant Amendment is approved. We reserve the right to redeem any of the warrants, as applicable, pursuant to their current terms at any time, including prior to the completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, and if the Warrant Amendment is approved, we intend to (i) require the conversion of all outstanding public warrants into Ordinary Shares at a ratio of 0.225 Ordinary Shares per public warrant (a ratio which is 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer) and (ii) instruct the warrant agent to cancel all outstanding private placement warrants for no consideration, as provided in the Warrant Amendment. The Warrant Amendment will permit us to eliminate all of the warrants that remain outstanding after the Offer is completed. Our public warrants are currently listed on NYSE under the symbol “SGHC WS”; however, our public warrants will be delisted following the completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

The Offer and Consent Solicitation is conditioned upon the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form F-4 that we filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exchange of the warrants pursuant to the Offer. This Prospectus/Offer to Exchange forms a part of the registration statement.

Our board of directors has approved the Offer and Consent Solicitation. However, neither we nor any of our management, our board of directors, or the information agent or the exchange agent for the Offer and Consent Solicitation is making any recommendation as to whether holders of warrants should tender warrants for exchange in the Offer and, as applicable, consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation. Each holder of a warrant must make its own decision as to whether to exchange some or all of its warrants and, as applicable, consent to the Warrant Amendment. All questions concerning the terms of the Offer and Consent Solicitation should be directed to the Company.

All questions concerning exchange procedures and requests for additional copies of this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, the Letter of Transmittal and Consent or the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery should be directed to the information agent:

As a result of these factors, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange will prove to be accurate. Furthermore, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time frame or at all. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

The information contained on, or that may be accessed through, our website is not part of, and is not incorporated into, this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange or the registration statement of which it forms a part.

Warrants that qualify for the Offer

As of November 9, 2022, we had outstanding an aggregate of 33,499,986 warrants, including 22,499,986 public warrants, each exercisable for one Ordinary Shares at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustments pursuant to the Warrant Agreement. Pursuant to the Offer, we are offering up to an aggregate of 5,624,997 Ordinary Shares in exchange for all of the outstanding public warrants.

Under the Warrant Agreement, we may call the public warrants for redemption at our option:

•

in whole and not in part;

•

at a price of $0.10 per warrant;

•

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrant holder; and

•

if, and only if, the reported closing price of our Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 10 trading days within a 20-trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the date on which we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders, provided that there is an effective registration statement covering the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the public warrants, and a current prospectus relating thereto, available throughout the 30-day redemption period or the Company has elected to require the exercise of public warrants on a “cashless basis.”

The warrants expire on January 27, 2027, subject to certain terms and conditions.

Market Price of Our Ordinary Shares

Our Ordinary Shares and public warrants are listed on NYSE under the symbols “SGHC” and “SGHC WS” respectively. See “Market Information, Dividends and Related Shareholder Matters.”

The Offer

Each public warrant holder who tenders warrants for exchange pursuant to the Offer will receive 0.25 Ordinary Shares for each public warrant so exchanged. No fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued pursuant to the Offer. In lieu of issuing fractional shares to any holder of warrants who would otherwise have been entitled to receive fractional shares pursuant to the Offer, the Company will round the number of shares to which such holder is entitled, after aggregating all fractions, up to the next whole number of shares. One of the

conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation is that (i) holders of at least 50% of then outstanding public warrants tender their warrants in the Offer, and thereby consent to the Warrant Amendment, and (ii) holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment.

Holders of the warrants tendered for exchange will not have to pay any of the exercise price for the tendered warrants in order to receive Ordinary Shares in the exchange. The Ordinary Shares issued in exchange for the tendered public warrants will be unrestricted and freely transferable, as long as the holder is not an affiliate of ours and was not an affiliate of ours within the three months prior to the proposed transfer of such shares.

The Offer is being made to all public warrant holders except those holders who reside in states or other jurisdictions where an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful (or would require further action in order to comply with applicable securities laws).

The Consent Solicitation

If approved, the Warrant Amendment would permit the Company to (i) require that all outstanding public warrants upon the closing of the Offer be converted into Ordinary Shares at a ratio of 0.225 Ordinary Shares per public warrant (a ratio which is10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer) and (ii) instruct the warrant agent to cancel each outstanding private placement warrant for no consideration. The Warrant Amendment will permit us to eliminate all of the warrants that remain outstanding after the Offer is consummated.

The Consent Solicitation is conditioned upon receiving the consent of holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants (which is the minimum number required to amend the Warrant Agreement with respect to the public warrants), and the consent of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants and at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants (which is the minimum number required to amend the Warrant Agreement with respect to the private placement warrants).

Warrant holders participating in the Consent Solicitation are required to consent by executing the Letters of Transmittal and Consent or requesting that their broker or nominee consent on their behalf to an amendment to the Warrant Agreement governing the warrants as set forth in the Warrant Amendment attached as Annex A.

Holders of public warrants may not consent to the Warrant Amendment without tendering their public warrants in the Offer and may not tender such warrants without consenting to the Warrant Amendment. Holders who tender public warrants for exchange in the Offer will automatically be deemed, without any further action, to have given their consent to approval of the Warrant Amendment (effective upon our acceptance of the tendered warrants).

Purpose of the Offer and Consent Solicitation

The purpose of the Offer and Consent Solicitation is to attempt to simplify our capital structure, increase our public float and reduce the potential dilutive impact of the warrants, which we believe will provide us with more flexibility for financing our operations and growth opportunities in the future.

Additionally, conditional on the completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, each of the Pre-Closing Holders have agreed to irrevocably and unconditionally waive their respective rights to receive Earnout Shares arising from the earnout obligation subject to and with effect from completion of the exchange.

See “The Offer and Consent Solicitation — Background and Purpose of the Offer and Consent Solicitation.”

Offer Period

The Offer and Consent Solicitation will expire on the Expiration Date, which is 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on December 12, 2022, or such later time and date to which we may extend. All warrants tendered for exchange pursuant to the Offer and Consent Solicitation, and all required related paperwork, must be received by the exchange agent by the Expiration Date, as described in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange.

If the Offer Period is extended, we will make a public announcement of such extension by no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the next business day following the Expiration Date as in effect immediately prior to such extension.

We may withdraw the Offer and Consent Solicitation only if the conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation are not satisfied or waived prior to the Expiration Date. Promptly upon any such withdrawal, we will return the tendered warrants and revoke any consents to the Warrant Amendment. We will announce our decision to withdraw the Offer and Consent Solicitation by disseminating notice by public announcement or otherwise as permitted by applicable law. See “The Offer and Consent Solicitation — General Terms — Offer Period.”

Amendments to the Offer and Consent Solicitation

We reserve the right at any time or from time to time to amend the Offer and Consent Solicitation, including by increasing or (if the conditions to the Offer are not satisfied) decreasing the exchange ratio of Ordinary Shares issued for every public warrant exchanged or by changing the terms of the Warrant Amendment. If we make a material change in the terms of the Offer and Consent Solicitation or the information concerning the Offer and Consent Solicitation, or if we waive a material condition of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, we will extend the Offer and Consent Solicitation to the extent required by Rules 13e-4(d)(2) and 13e-4(e)(3) under the Exchange Act. See “The Offer and Consent Solicitation — General Terms — Amendments to the Offer and Consent Solicitation.”

Conditions to the Offer and Consent Solicitation

The consummation of the Offer and Consent Solicitation is conditioned on (i) holders of at least 50% of then outstanding public warrants tendering their warrants in the Offer and thereby consenting to the Warrant Amendment, and (ii) holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding private placement warrants consenting to the Warrant Amendment. The Offer and Consent Solicitation is also subject to customary conditions, including the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange forms a part and the absence of any action or proceeding, statute, rule, regulation or order that would challenge or restrict the making or completion of the Offer.

The Consent Solicitation is conditioned upon receiving the consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants (which is the minimum number required to amend the Warrant Agreement with respect to the public warrants), and the consent of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants and at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants (which is the minimum number required to amend the Warrant Agreement with respect to the private placement warrants). We may waive some of the conditions to the Offer. See “The Offer and Consent Solicitation — General Terms — Conditions to the Offer and Consent Solicitation.”

We will not complete the Offer and Consent Solicitation unless and until the conditions above are met and the registration statement described above is effective. If the registration statement is not effective at the Expiration Date, we may, in our discretion, extend, suspend or cancel the Offer and Consent Solicitation, and will inform warrant holders of such event.

Withdrawal Rights

If you tender your public warrants for exchange and change your mind, you may withdraw your tendered warrants and thereby automatically revoke the related consent to the Warrant Amendment at any time prior to the Expiration Date, as described in greater detail in the section titled “The Offer and Consent Solicitation — Withdrawal Rights.” If the Offer Period is extended, you may withdraw your tendered warrants and thereby automatically revoke the related consent to the Warrant Amendment at any time until the extended Expiration Date. In addition, tendered warrants that are not accepted by us for exchange by January 10, 2023 may thereafter be withdrawn by you until such time as the warrants are accepted by us for exchange.

Holders of private placement warrants that consent to the Warrant Amendment may not revoke their consent. See “The Offer and Consent Solicitation — Withdrawal Rights.”

Federal and State Regulatory Approvals

Other than compliance with the applicable federal and state securities laws, no federal or state regulatory requirements must be complied

with and no federal or state regulatory approvals must be obtained in connection with the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

Absence of Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights

Holders of warrants do not have any appraisal or dissenters’ rights under applicable law in connection with the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Offer

For those holders of warrants participating in the Offer and for any holders of warrants subsequently exchanged for Ordinary Shares pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Amendment, if approved, we intend to treat your exchange of warrants for our Ordinary Shares as a “recapitalization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code pursuant to which (i) you should not recognize any gain or loss on the exchange of warrants for Ordinary Shares, (ii) your aggregate tax basis in our Ordinary Shares received in the exchange should equal your aggregate tax basis in your warrants surrendered in the exchange, and (iii) your holding period for our Ordinary Shares received in the exchange should include your holding period for the surrendered warrants. However, because there is a lack of direct legal authority regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the exchange of warrants for our Ordinary Shares, there can be no assurance in this regard and alternative characterizations are possible by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or a court, including ones that would require U.S. holders to recognize taxable income.

Although the issue is not free from doubt, we intend to treat all warrants not exchanged for Ordinary Shares in the Offer as having been exchanged for “new” warrants pursuant to the Warrant Amendment and to treat such deemed exchange as a “recapitalization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, pursuant to which (i) you should not recognize any gain or loss on the deemed exchange of warrants for “new” warrants, (ii) your aggregate tax basis in the “new” warrants deemed to be received in the exchange should equal your aggregate tax basis in your existing warrants surrendered in the exchange, and (iii) your holding period for the “new” warrants deemed to be received in the exchange should include your holding period for the surrendered warrants. Because there is a lack of direct legal authority regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the deemed exchange of warrants for “new” warrants pursuant to the Warrant Amendment, if approved, there can be no assurance in this regard and alternative characterizations by the IRS or a court are possible, including ones that would require U.S. holders to recognize taxable income.

See “The Offer and Consent Solicitation — Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences.”

No Recommendation

None of our Board, our management, the exchange agent, the information agent or any other person makes any recommendation on

whether you should tender or refrain from tendering all or any portion of your warrants or consent to the Warrant Amendment, and no one has been authorized by any of them to make such a recommendation.

Risks Associated with Our Business

The following is a summary list of the principal risk factors that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. These are not the only risks and uncertainties we face, and you should carefully review and consider the full discussion of our risk factors in the section titled “Risk Factors”, together with the other information in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange.

•

Our business depends on the success, including win or hold rates, of existing and future online betting and gaming products, which rely on a variety of factors and are not completely controlled by us.

•

Competition within the broader entertainment industry is intense and our existing and potential customers may be attracted to competing betting and gaming options, as well as other forms of entertainment such as video games, television, movies and sporting events. If our offerings do not continue to be popular with existing customers and attract potential customers, our business would be harmed.

•

Although the spread of COVID-19 infections and mortality rates appear to have receded in all of our key markets and COVID-19 related restrictions have widely been lifted, historic restrictions have nonetheless affected our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. We cannot be certain that a new strain of the virus will not lead to future reductions in the quantity of global sporting events, closures or restrictions on business operations of our suppliers, partners and sports organizations or a decrease in consumer spending. Pandemic restrictions that led to increased activity in online casino gaming have since been loosened or removed, resulting in at least partial return of customer activity to pre-pandemic levels in some markets. We cannot be certain of a full return to pre-pandemic levels in online gaming activities.

•

We rely on third-party service providers such as (i) third-party providers to validate the identity and identify the location of our customers, (ii) third-party payment processors to process deposits and withdrawals made by our customers into our platforms, (iii) third-party marketing and customer communications systems providers, (iv) third-party casino content, product and technology providers, (v) third-party sportsbook technology providers, (vi) third-party sports data providers for real-time and accurate data for sporting events, and (vii) third-party outsourced services providers, among others. If our third-party providers do not perform adequately or terminate their relationships with us, our costs may increase and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

•

We license the Betway brand, for a fixed fee, for use by DGC USA in the United States and, for a fixed fee plus an additional fee equal to a percentage of Betway’s global brand marketing spend, to a third party for use in China, Thailand and Vietnam. A decline in such third-party operators’ financial performance or a termination of the brand licenses by such third parties could have an adverse effect on our business.

•

Our financial guarantee arrangement under DGC’s loan facility with Standard Bank may limit our operational flexibility or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations or cash needs.

•

If we fail to detect fraud or theft related to our offerings, including by our customers and employees, we will suffer financial losses and our reputation may suffer which could harm our brand and reputation and negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations and can subject us to investigations and litigation, which could ultimately lead to regulatory penalties, including potential loss of licensure.

•

We rely on strategic relationships with land-based casinos, sports teams, event planners, local licensing partners and advertisers in order to be able to offer and market our products in certain jurisdictions. If we cannot maintain these relationships and establish additional relationships, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

•

The requirements of being a public company, including compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and maintaining effective internal controls over financial reporting, may strain our resources and divert management’s attention, and the increases in legal, accounting and compliance expenses associated with being a public company may be greater than we anticipate.

•

As a private company, we were not required to document and test internal controls over financial reporting nor was our management required to certify the effectiveness of internal controls or have our auditors opine on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Failure to maintain adequate financial, information technology and management processes and controls could result in material weaknesses which could lead to errors in our financial reporting, which could adversely affect our business as a public company.

•

If our existing material weaknesses persist or we experience additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls in the future, we may not be able to accurately report our financial condition or results of operation, which may adversely affect investor confidence in us and, as a result, the value of our Ordinary Shares and our overall business.

•

Economic downturns, abrupt or unexpected changes in interest rates or increases in inflation or inflationary expectations, reductions in discretionary consumer spending and political and market conditions beyond our control could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In the event of any such impacts happening, we cannot be certain as to the extent or duration thereof.

•

We are susceptible to macroeconomic events and geopolitical factors, which may adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.

•

We face significant regulatory challenges associated with our participation in the Ontario market.

•

The gaming laws of different jurisdictions vary in both nature and application, and may be subject to alternate interpretations. Jurisdictions may or may not incorporate regulatory frameworks that provide a clear basis for the licensed provision of our gaming products and services to their residents. As a consequence, legal and enforcement risk may be unclear or uncertain in a number of the jurisdictions in which we operate and from which we generate a significant portion of our revenue, and there is a risk that regulators or prosecutors in these territories may seek to take legal action against us even in jurisdictions in which we believe our offerings are lawful based on advice from local counsel. Furthermore, we have in the past faced claims from customers contesting the legal basis of our services in certain jurisdictions, and may face similar claims again in the future.

•

Failure to comply with legal or regulatory requirements in a particular regulated jurisdiction, or the failure to successfully obtain a license or permit in a particular jurisdiction, could impact our ability to comply with licensing and regulatory requirements in other regulated jurisdictions, or could cause the rejection of license applications or cancellation of existing licenses in other regulated jurisdictions, or could cause financial institutions, online and mobile platforms, advertisers and distributors to stop providing services to us which we rely upon to receive payments from, or distribute amounts to, our customers, or otherwise to deliver and promote our offerings.

•

We are party to pending litigation and regulatory and tax audits in various jurisdictions and with various plaintiffs and we may be subject to future litigation and regulatory and tax audits in the operation of our business. An adverse outcome in one or more proceedings could adversely affect our business.

•

Failure to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, the confidentiality of our trade secrets and confidential information, or the costs involved in protecting or enforcing our intellectual property rights and confidential information, could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

•

Our collection, storage and use, including sharing and international transfers, of personal data are subject to applicable data protection and privacy laws, and any actual or perceived failure to comply with such laws may harm our reputation and business or expose us to fines, civil claims (including class actions), and other enforcement action. The protection of personal information is becoming increasingly regulated and changes in applicable laws may require changes to our policies, practices, procedures and personnel which may require material expenditures and harm our financial condition and results of operations.

•

We will rely on licenses to use the intellectual property rights of third parties which are incorporated into our products and offerings. Failure to maintain, renew or expand existing licenses may require us to modify, limit or discontinue certain offerings, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

•

We rely on information technology and other systems and platforms, and any failures, errors, defects or disruptions in our systems or platforms could diminish our brand and reputation, subject us to liability, disrupt our business, affect our ability to scale our technological infrastructure and adversely affect our operating results and growth prospects. Our games and other software applications and systems, and the third-party platforms upon which they are made available could contain undetected errors.

•

Our internal forecasts are subject to significant risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties, including assumptions regarding future legislation and changes in regulations of the jurisdictions in which we operate, or seek to operate, our business. As a result, our projected revenues, market share, expenses and profitability may differ materially from our expectations.

•

The coverage of our business or our securities by securities or industry analysts or the absence thereof could adversely affect our securities and trading volume.

•

Because we are incorporated under the laws of the Island of Guernsey, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. courts may be limited; and

•

the other factors set forth under “Risk Factors.”

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

In addition to the Company’s results determined in accordance with IFRS, this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange includes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA which are non-GAAP company-specific performance measures that Super Group uses to supplement the Company’s results presented in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA is defined as profit for the period before depreciation, amortization, financial income, financial expense and income tax expense/credit. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA less gain on bargain purchase and gain on derivative contracts plus transaction costs. The Company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating the Company’s operating performance as they are similar to measures reported by the Company’s competitors and are regularly used by securities analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be a substitute for any IFRS financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. Super Group compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its IFRS results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation of net profit/(loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.

The table below presents our (unaudited) Adjusted EBITDA reconciled to profit / (loss), the closest IFRS measure, for the periods indicated:

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the risk factors below, as well as the other information contained in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange before making an investment decision. Any of the risk factors could significantly and negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and prospects and the trading price of our securities. You could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Super Group’s Business

Our business depends on the success, including win or hold rates, of existing and future online betting and gaming products, which rely on a variety of factors and are not completely controlled by us.

The sports betting and online casino gaming industries are characterized by an element of chance. Accordingly, we employ theoretical win rates, probability distributions and related models to estimate what a certain type of sports bet or online casino game, on average, will win or lose in the long run. Our revenue is impacted by variations in the hold percentage (the ratio of net win to total amount wagered), or actual outcome, on the sports betting and online casino games that we offer to our customers. We use the hold percentage as an indicator of an online casino game’s or sports bet’s performance against its expected outcome. Although each sports bet or online casino game generally performs within a defined statistical range of outcomes, actual outcomes may vary for any given period, particularly in the short term.

In the short term, for online casino wagering and online sports wagering, the element of chance may affect win rates (hold percentages); these win rates, particularly for online sports wagering, may also be affected in the short term by factors that are largely beyond our control, such as unanticipated event outcomes, a customer’s skill, experience and behavior, the mix of games played or wagers placed, the financial resources of customers, the volume of wagers placed and the amount of time spent gambling. For online casino games, it is possible a random number generator outcome or game will malfunction or is otherwise misprogrammed to pay out wins in excess of the game’s mathematical design and award errant prizes. Factors that are nominally within our control, such as the level of incentives or bonuses or comps given to customers, might, for various reasons both within and beyond our control, not be well-controlled and hence in turn might impact win rates. For online sports wagering, it is possible that our platform erroneously posts odds or is otherwise misprogrammed to pay out odds that are highly favorable to bettors, and bettors place wagers before the odds are corrected. Additionally, odds compilers and risk managers are capable of human error, so even if our wagering products are subject to a capped payout, significant volatility can occur. Similarly, inadvertently over-incentivizing customers can convert a sports wager or casino game that would otherwise have been expected to be profitable for the Company into one with a positive expectation for the player.

As a result of the variability in these factors, the actual win rates on our sports betting and online casino gaming offerings may differ from the theoretical win rates we have estimated and could result in the winnings of our sports betting or online casino gaming customers exceeding those anticipated. The variability of win rates (hold rates) also has the potential to negatively impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and cash flows.

Our business relies for its success on entertaining customers by means of a wide range of potential wagering opportunities. In recent years an increasing percentage of sports betting wagering has been derived from “in-play” or “in-game” wagering, which refers to the wagers that customers make during the course of a sports event (as opposed to “pre-game” or “ante-post” wagers made before the start of a sports event) on the outcome of related events that occur pursuant to the primary event. Examples of this include “Scorer of the next goal” in a soccer match, or “Winner of the next point” in a tennis match. Where such wagers are allowed, there can be no assurance that regulators will not in the future seek to prohibit such forms of wagering, and where such wagers are not yet allowed there can be no assurance that regulators will ever allow them. If such “in-play” wagering is prohibited in any market then our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and cash flows might be negatively impacted.

Similarly, for casino games there can be no assurance that existing casino game features will always be allowed or that new casino game features will be allowed or that regulators will not seek to constrain the operation of games in any way, for example by limiting the rate or speed of game play. If game features or other relevant aspects of casino game design are constrained then our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and cash flows might be negatively impacted.

The success of our business depends on the quality of our strategy and our ability to execute on it.

Our business strategy makes a number of assumptions about the current and future state of the industry that we operate in, including but not limited to environmental factors such as the current and future state of the markets and economies that we operate in, the current and expected future actions of governments around the world, the current and future capacity and effectiveness of our competitors, and the current and future desires and wants and means of our customers. Our strategy also makes assumptions about the current and future state of our own business, including our capacity and effectiveness and our ability to respond to all of the aforementioned environmental factors, amongst others. All of these assumptions are informed by data and information that is publicly available and which we gather for ourselves and by our ability to process and understand such data and information. Any or all of our assumptions may prove to be faulty and/or our data and/or information may be inaccurate or incomplete, in which case our strategy may prove to be incorrect or inadequate for the demands of our industry. Even if our strategy is a good one, we cannot be certain that our business is equipped to execute the plans and actions that might be necessary to achieve success. If any of our assumptions are incorrect and/or our strategy is poor and/or we are unable to execute on our strategy then our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and cash flows might be negatively impacted.

The success of our business depends in part on our ability to anticipate and satisfy customer preferences in a timely manner.

As we operate in a dynamic environment characterized by rapidly changing industry and legal standards, our products are subject to changing consumer preferences that cannot be predicted with certainty. We need to continually introduce new offerings and identify future product offerings that complement our existing platforms, respond to our customers’ needs and improve and enhance our existing platforms to maintain or increase our customer engagement and growth of our business. We may not be able to compete effectively if our sports betting odds pricing and casino game design are not competitive and/or unless our product selection keeps up with trends in the digital sports entertainment and gaming industries in which we compete, or trends in new gaming products. If we are unable to anticipate and satisfy customer preferences in a timely manner and/or we are unable to provide competitive and appealing products to our customers, then our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and cash flows might be negatively impacted.

We operate in the global entertainment betting and gaming industries within the broader entertainment industry with our business-to-consumer offerings, including sports betting and online casino gaming. Our customers are offered a vast array of entertainment choices. Other forms of entertainment, such as television, movies, sporting events, other forms of non-gambling games and in-person casinos, are well established and may be perceived by our customers to offer greater variety, affordability, interactivity and enjoyment. New and alternative product categories are continuously evolving that may be perceived by our customers to offer equivalent or better entertainment, including casual games, daily fantasy sports (a variation on fantasy sports leagues), and apps and websites that offer the trading of financial instruments in a manner that incorporates elements that are similar to gambling. We compete with these other forms of entertainment for the discretionary

time and income of our customers. If we are unable to sustain sufficient interest in our product offerings in comparison to other forms of entertainment, including new forms of entertainment, our business model may not continue to be viable.

The specific industries in which we operate are characterized by dynamic customer demand and technological advances, and there is intense competition among online gaming and entertainment providers. A number of established, well-financed companies producing online gaming and/or interactive entertainment products and services compete with our offerings, and other well-capitalized companies may introduce competitive services. Such competitors may spend more money and time on developing and testing products and services, undertake more extensive marketing campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing or promotional policies or otherwise develop more commercially successful products or services than ours, which could negatively impact our business. Our competitors may also develop products, features, or services that are similar to ours or that achieve greater market acceptance. Furthermore, new competitors, whether licensed or not, may enter the online gaming industry. There has also been considerable consolidation among competitors in the entertainment, betting and gaming industries and such consolidation and future consolidation could result in the formation of larger competitors with increased financial resources and altered cost structures, which may enable them to offer more competitive products, gain a larger market share, expand offerings and broaden their geographic scope of operations. If we are not able to maintain or improve our market shares, or if our offerings do not continue to be popular, our business could suffer.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world during 2020, 2021 and early 2022 to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19 included restrictions on travel, cancellation of sporting events, quarantines in certain areas and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. COVID-19 and actions taken to mitigate its spread had a number of significant and lasting adverse impacts on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including in the geographical areas in which we operate. COVID-19 and actions taken to mitigate its spread also had a significant impact on our business, our suppliers and our customers. The direct impact on our business, beyond disruptions in normal business operations, was driven by the suspension, postponement, cancellation or curtailment of major sports seasons and events during 2020 and 2021. While sporting events have since resumed, there can be no assurance that these seasons and events will not be further impacted again due to a resurgence of COVID-19 cases. Conversely, hard lockdowns, stay-at-home or shelter-in-place orders for the general populace in many jurisdictions during 2020 and 2021 accelerated the shift to online commerce, which management believes benefited the business in some areas. Customer activity appears to be returning towards pre-pandemic levels in some markets, but there will nonetheless be lasting effects on our business, the extent of which are not yet known and may take some time to become clear, particularly if any subsequent waves of the pandemic lead to the reinstatement of similar restrictions in the future.

COVID-19 infection and mortality rates appear to have receded in all of our key markets and current strains of the virus appear to be less severe. Strict and far-reaching pandemic restrictions are therefore hopefully a thing of the past. The ultimate extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, operating results, cash flows, liquidity and financial condition will be primarily driven by the severity and duration of any future waves of the pandemic, including as a result of impacts on global economies and the timing, scope and effectiveness of federal, state and local governmental responses to future waves of the pandemic in the United States and

national, provincial/ state/regional and local responses elsewhere around the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in government authorities implementing measures to try to contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, stay-at-home or shelter-in-place orders, and business shutdowns. The reimplementation of these or similar measures in the future may adversely impact our relationships with existing and potential new business partners globally, our employees and operations and the operations of our business partners, and may negatively impact our business. Our sports betting revenues are dependent on interest in sporting events, which have been, and may be in the future, substantially limited during times of business shutdowns, the prohibition or reduction of physical participation in such activities or the cancellation or postponement of sporting events, such as the postponement of the 2020 Summer Olympic Games. In addition, global travel restrictions could impact our relationships with existing or potential new partners around the world.

In recent periods coinciding with the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen significant growth in online sports betting and casino gaming revenues from existing and new customers, as the COVID-19 pandemic appeared to accelerate the shift of customers to online entertainment. There is some evidence that the subsequent easing of government restrictions has more recently softened or reversed this trend in some markets, possibly as customers seek to spend their entertainment dollars through physical participation and not online activities, resulting in a decrease in our share of the entertainment wallet. These effects make the comparison of our current and historical performance very difficult. In particular, the growth or otherwise in our active wagering customer numbers and our revenues may be distorted and hence our historic growth may not be a useful or accurate guide to our expected future performance.

There is no certainty that any actions taken by us will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the COVID-19 pandemic or that any of the secular factors arising from COVID-19 (such as the general trend towards online commerce that has benefited all digital businesses) will continue to be of benefit to us, especially in light of potential new strains of the virus. These factors related to COVID-19 are beyond our knowledge and control and, as a result, at this time, we are unable to predict the ultimate impact, both in terms of severity and duration, that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition.

Our results of operations may fluctuate due to seasonality and other factors and, therefore, our periodic operating results will not be guarantees of future performance.

Although the sporting calendar is year-round, there is seasonality in sporting events that may impact our operations. The broad geographical mix of our customer base also impacts the effect of seasonality as customers in different territories will place differing importance on different sporting competitions and those competitions will often have different sporting calendars. Sports organizations have their own significant sporting events such as the playoffs and championship games, which may cause increases in our revenues, and their own respective off-seasons, which may cause decreases in our revenues. Certain sports only hold events during portions of the calendar year. For example, our revenues are significantly impacted by the calendars of the major European and African football (soccer) leagues, international and Indian Premier League cricket, major American sports leagues, marquee horse racing events and major professional tennis tournaments. Our revenues may also be affected by the scheduling of major sporting events that do not occur annually, such as the FIFA World Cup, or the cancellation or postponement of sporting events. Similarly, management believes that there is some evidence that seasonality in casino gaming may occur at the time of certain major national holidays and/or vacation periods and hence it may occur that revenues and cashflow might be adversely affected during times of year when customers are naturally more likely to engage with other non-gaming activities. Such fluctuations and uncertainties may negatively impact our cash flows.

Because a significant portion of our sports betting business is based on open-air, live events, extreme weather conditions may result in the postponement or cancellation of such events and negatively impact our associated revenues.

Extreme weather conditions may interrupt live sporting events, causing their postponement or, in unusual circumstances, their cancellation. In such circumstances, because our sports betting operations rely on such events being carried out in accordance with pre-set timetables, we may be forced to reverse wagers already placed or remove future betting propositions. Climate change may make past weather conditions unrepresentative of future weather conditions and extreme weather conditions may increase in number or severity in the future. While certain sporting events may shift to closed environments, other sporting events may be ill-suited or less popular in such environments. We do not currently maintain insurance coverage applicable to cover either the costs or loss of revenue that we may incur due to the postponement or cancellation of events caused by extreme weather conditions. These circumstances may adversely affect our revenues and our customer relationships.

We make use of machine learning and other data science and analytics techniques and technologies throughout our business and attempt to integrate this into customer-facing systems in ways that may have significant effects on our revenues and profits. The nature of such systems is that their outcomes cannot always be predicted and, therefore, our periodic operating results will not be guarantees of future performance.

We use machine learning and data science and analytics methodologies and techniques to seek to understand individual customer preferences and attributes as well as to detect fraud and manage risk. Machine learning systems are by their nature often opaque and can evolve over time. If we fail to implement or maintain adequate controls over such systems, then they may evolve to produce outcomes that could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our machine learning and data science and analytics models are designed to analyze data attributes in order to identify complex transaction and behavior patterns. We do this for a number of purposes, including but not limited to fraud detection, determination of when and how to intervene in customer wagering activity for responsible gaming purposes, generation of personalized wagering and game recommendations in order to remove customer interface friction, and generation of personalized incentives (or disincentives, as the case may be) in order to optimize customer satisfaction, enjoyment and profitability. Our ability to continuously train and/or improve these systems will have material impacts on our revenues, especially as methods of committing fraud evolve and become more sophisticated and as competitors become better at evaluating and incentivizing and interacting with customers. However, it is possible that these systems may prove to be less accurate than we expect, or than they have been in the past, for a variety of reasons, including inaccurate assumptions or other errors made in building or training such systems, incorrect interpretations of the results of such systems, increased fraud sophistication beyond the capabilities of such systems, the emergence of very high value but very low volume or short-term transient risks that models of this nature might struggle to detect, and failure to timely update system assumptions and parameters. Further, the successful performance of our machine learning and data science and analytics models relies on the ability to constantly review and process large amounts of transactions and other data.

If we are unable to attract new customers or retain existing customers, or if our systems for capturing and processing data were to degrade or fail in any way, then the amount of data reviewed and processed by our machine learning and data science and analytics models will be reduced or fail to grow at a pace that will allow us to continue to improve the efficiency of our models, which may reduce the accuracy of such systems. Additionally, such systems may not be able to effectively account for matters that are inherently difficult to predict or are otherwise beyond our control, such as social engineering and other methods of perpetrating fraud that do not lend themselves well to risk-based analysis. Material errors or inaccuracies in such machine learning and data science and analytics models could lead us to make inaccurate or sub-optimal operational or strategic decisions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

There is no guarantee that the third-party geolocation and identity verification systems that we rely on will perform adequately or will be effective. We rely on our geolocation and identity verification systems to ensure that we are in compliance with certain laws and regulations, and any service disruption to those systems would prohibit us from operating our platform and would adversely affect our business. Additionally, incorrect or misleading geolocation and identity verification data with respect to our current or potential customers received from third-party service providers may result in us inadvertently allowing access to our offerings to individuals who should not be permitted to access them, or otherwise inadvertently deny access to individuals who should be able to access our offerings, in each case based on inaccurate identity or geographic location determination. Our third-party geolocation service providers rely on their ability to obtain information necessary to determine geolocation from mobile devices, operating systems, and other sources. Changes, disruptions or temporary or permanent failure to access such sources by our third-party service providers may result in their inability to accurately determine the location of our customers. Moreover, our inability to maintain our existing contracts with third-party service providers, or to replace them with equivalent third parties, may result in our inability to access geolocation and identity verification data necessary for our day-to-day operations. If any of these risks materializes, we may be subject to disciplinary action, fines, lawsuits, and our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be adversely affected.

We also rely on a limited number of third-party payment processors to process deposits and withdrawals made by our customers into our platform. If any of our third-party payment processors terminates its relationship with us or refuses to renew its agreement with us on commercially reasonable terms, we would need to find an alternate payment processor, and may not be able to secure similar terms or replace such payment processor in an acceptable time frame. Relatedly, if any of our third-party payment processors attempt to vary the terms of an existing agreement with us, and we are unable to refuse the variance, such events may have an adverse effect on the results of our operations. Further, the software and services provided by our third-party payment processors may not meet our expectations, contain errors or vulnerabilities, be compromised or experience outages. Any of these risks could cause us to lose our ability to accept online payments or other payment transactions or make timely payments to customers on our platform, any of which could make our platform less trustworthy and convenient and adversely affect our ability to attract and retain our customers.

All of our payments are made by credit card, debit card or through other third-party payment services, which subjects us to certain regulations and to the risk of fraud. We may in the future offer new payment options to customers that may be subject to additional regulations and risks and/or may incur higher transaction charges. We are also subject to a number of other laws and regulations relating to the payments we accept from our customers, including with respect to money laundering, money transfers, privacy and information security. Although we have implemented processes and have dedicated teams to ensure compliance with applicable rules and regulations, there have in the past, and there may be in the future, incidences where certain relevant information relating to “know your customer” (“KYC”) and/or anti-money laundering (“AML”) is not detected or established. If we fail to comply with applicable rules and regulations, we may be subject to civil or criminal penalties, fines and/or higher transaction fees and may lose our ability to accept online payments or other payment card transactions, which could make our offerings less convenient and attractive to our customers. If any of these events were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be adversely affected.

For example, if we are deemed to be a money transmitter as defined by applicable regulation, we could be subject to certain laws, rules and regulations enforced by multiple authorities and governing bodies in the United States and numerous state and local agencies who may define money transmitter differently. For example, certain U.S. states may have a more expansive view of who qualifies as a money transmitter. Additionally, we could be subject to additional laws, rules and regulations related to the provision of payments and financial services, and if we expand into new jurisdictions, the various regulations and regulators governing our business that we are subject to will expand as well. In addition to fines, penalties for failing to comply with applicable rules and regulations could include criminal and civil proceedings, forfeiture of significant assets or other enforcement actions. We could also be required to make changes to our business practices or compliance programs as a result of regulatory scrutiny.

Additionally, our payment processors require us to comply with payment card network operating rules, which are set and interpreted by the payment card networks. The payment card networks could adopt new operating rules or interpret or reinterpret existing rules in ways that might prohibit us from providing certain offerings to some customers, be costly to implement or difficult to follow. We have agreed to reimburse our payment processors for fines they are assessed by payment card networks if we or the customers on our platform violate these rules. Any of the foregoing risks could adversely affect our regulatory licensure, business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Additionally, outages in our connectivity with our payment processors or their connectivity with downstream processors and networks might inhibit our ability to successfully process deposits and withdrawals on behalf of our customers. Errors in any of these systems may cause transactions to be processed multiple times or not at all, which may in turn result in customers being overcharged, overpaid or not paying us. Overcharging customers might result in representations, returns or chargebacks which might in turn jeopardize our relationships with our payment processors and potentially lead to fines and additional transaction costs or even the termination of our relationships with our payment processors. If we do not detect these errors timeously then we might over-credit to or under-deduct from our customers’ sports betting or casino accounts which might in turn result in customers being inadvertently given risk-free opportunities to gamble and thereby potentially win even larger amounts. We cannot guarantee that we will detect such outages or errors timeously nor that we will be able to recover any resulting losses from customers or third-party providers. Any attempts by us to recover such losses from our customers may cause our customers to have a negative experience and our brand or reputation may be negatively affected and our customers may be less inclined to continue or resume utilizing our products or recommend our platform to other potential customers. As such, any such outages or errors could harm our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

Furthermore, if any of our payment processors terminates its relationship with us or refuses to renew its agreement with us on commercially reasonable terms, we might need to find an alternate provider. Given the sometimes unique benefits and features of different payment options, exact replacement might not be possible and we may not be able to secure similar terms or benefits or features or replace such payment processors in an acceptable time frame. Any of these risks could increase our costs and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Further, any negative publicity related to any of our payment processors, including any publicity related to regulatory concerns, could adversely affect our reputation and brand, and could potentially lead to increased regulatory or litigation exposure.

We rely on third-party service providers for components of our marketing and customer communications processes and systems. Failures or outages in these systems may inhibit our ability to acquire new customers or retain existing customers. The nature of these processes means that certain customer personal information may be transmitted through these systems. If these systems are compromised in any way then customer personal data might be compromised and in turn our customers’ perception of our reliability and security might be impacted. Any of the foregoing risks could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Furthermore, if any of our marketing and customer communications providers terminates its relationship with us or refuses to renew its agreement with us on commercially reasonable terms, we might need to find an alternate provider. Given the sometimes unique benefits and features of different marketing and customer communications systems, exact replacement might not be possible and we may not be able to secure similar terms or benefits or features or replace such systems in an acceptable time frame. Any of these risks could increase our costs and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Further, any negative publicity related to any of our marketing and customer communications providers, including any publicity related to regulatory concerns, could adversely affect our reputation and brand, and could potentially lead to increased regulatory or litigation exposure.

We rely on third-party providers for nearly all of our casino games. These third parties are responsible for the design, development and maintenance of these games. In the past there have been outages during which time one or more games have been unavailable. There have also been incidents where errors in the design or development or maintenance of these games has result in erroneous payouts to customers, including instances where games have erroneously produced positive expected returns to customers and hence losses for the casino. We cannot be certain that we will always detect such outages and errors timeously nor that we will be able to recover any losses resulting from errors either from customers or third-party providers. Any outages or attempts by us to recover such losses from errors from our customers may cause our customers to have a negative experience and our brand or reputation may be negatively affected and our customers may be less inclined to continue or resume utilizing our products or recommend our platform to other potential customers. As such, any such outages and errors could harm our reputation, business and operating results.

Furthermore, if any of our casino game suppliers terminates its relationship with us or refuses to renew its agreement with us on commercially reasonable terms, we might need to find an alternate provider. Given the unique design of each casino game, exact replacement would not be possible and we may not be able to secure similar terms or product features or extent of product range or replace such providers in an acceptable time frame. Any of these risks could increase our costs and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Further, any negative publicity related to any of our third-party casino game supplier partners, including any publicity related to regulatory concerns, could adversely affect our reputation and brand, and could potentially lead to increased regulatory or litigation exposure.

We rely on third-party providers for the majority of our sports betting product platforms. These third parties are responsible for the design, development and maintenance of these platforms. In the past there have been outages during which time wagering was either severely inhibited, delayed or unavailable. We cannot be certain that we will always detect such outages timeously nor that we will be able to recover any resulting losses from third-party providers. Any such outages may cause our customers to have a negative experience and our brand or reputation may be negatively affected and our customers may be less inclined to continue or resume utilizing our products or recommend our product to other potential customers. As such, any such outages could harm our reputation, business and operating results.

Furthermore, if any of our third-party sports betting product platform providers terminates its relationship with us or refuses to renew its agreement with us on commercially reasonable terms, we might need to find an alternate provider. Given the sometimes unique features of different sports betting platforms, exact replacement might not be possible and we may not be able to secure similar terms or features or replace such sports betting product platform providers in an acceptable time frame. Any of these risks could increase our costs and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Further, any negative publicity related to any of our sports betting product platform providers, including any publicity related to regulatory concerns, could adversely affect our reputation and brand, and could potentially lead to increased regulatory or litigation exposure.

We also rely on third-party sportsbook technology providers with whom we have long-term relationships. We have agreements with Apricot Investments Limited (“Apricot”), one of the leading gaming software and

content providers, for the exclusive provision of the Apricot sportsbook software and Player Account Management (“PAM”) system in a number of Super Group’s most significant markets. Apricot supplies a significant portion of the casino games available for play across all Super Group websites and apps. Any disruption in or termination of these relationships could harm our strategic growth.

We also rely on third-party sports data providers to obtain accurate information regarding schedules, results, performance and outcomes of sporting events. We rely on this data to display sporting events, odds and outcomes to customers and/or to determine when and how bets are settled. We have experienced, and we may continue to experience, errors in this data feed which may result in us incorrectly displaying events, odds and outcomes and/ or settling bets. If we cannot adequately resolve any such issues then our customers may have a negative experience with our offerings, our brand or reputation may be negatively affected and our customers may be less inclined to continue or resume utilizing our products or recommend our platform to other potential customers. As such, a failure or significant interruption in our service could harm our reputation, business and operating results.

Furthermore, if any of our sports data partners terminates its relationship with us or refuses to renew its agreement with us on commercially reasonable terms, we would need to find an alternate provider, and may not be able to secure similar terms or product features or replace such providers in an acceptable time frame.

Any of these risks could increase our costs and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Further, any negative publicity related to any of our third-party sports data partners, including any publicity related to regulatory concerns, could adversely affect our reputation and brand, and could potentially lead to increased regulatory or litigation exposure.

We also rely on third-party outsourced services providers for a variety of services or components thereof, including but not limited to customer support, risk and fraud prevention, “know-your-customer” and anti-money-laundering, software development, information technology and infrastructure maintenance and support, information and data security, database management, data analysis, marketing and related services, and product and website design and development. We rely on these third-party outsourced services providers to enable some of our products and offerings and in our interactions with suppliers and customers. If any of our third-party outsourced services providers provide inadequate or substandard service then our customers may have a negative experience with our offerings, our brand or reputation may be negatively affected and our customers may stop utilizing our products and/or be less inclined to continue or resume utilizing our products or recommend our platform to other potential customers. As such, inadequate or substandard service from any of our third-party outsourced services providers could harm our reputation, business and operating results.

Furthermore, if any of our third-party outsourced services providers terminates its relationship with us or refuses to renew its agreement with us on commercially reasonable terms, we would need to find an alternate provider, and may not be able to secure similar terms or services or replace such third-party providers in an acceptable time frame. Any of these risks could increase our costs and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Further, any negative publicity related to any of our third-party outsourced services providers, including any publicity related to regulatory concerns, could adversely affect our reputation and brand, and could potentially lead to increased regulatory or litigation exposure.

We license the Betway brand to Digital Gaming Corporation USA (“DGC USA”) for a fixed fee in the United States and, for a fixed fee plus an additional fee equal to a percentage of Betway’s global brand marketing spend, to a third-party operator for use in China, Thailand and Vietnam. Our financial performance depends in part on maintaining our licenses with these third-party operators. Fees earned from third-party operators

accounted for approximately 5.4% of our revenue in the year ended December 31, 2021. A decline in the third-party operators’ financial performance, competition from competitors or a deterioration in our relationships for other reasons could lead to termination of the brand licenses by such third-party operators, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

Our financial guarantee arrangement under DGC’s loan facility with Standard Bank may limit our operational flexibility or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations or cash needs.

Pursuant to the terms of our financial guarantee arrangement with DGC under DGC’s loan facility with Standard Bank, we agreed to certain restricted cash obligations which may limit our operational flexibility or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations or cash needs.

Our business depends on a strong brand, and if we are not able to develop, maintain and enhance our brand and reputation, including as a result of negative publicity, our business and operating results may be harmed.

We believe that developing, maintaining and enhancing our brands, especially our single-brand sportsbook Betway but also our multi-brand portfolio of casinos, Spin, is critical to achieving widespread acceptance of our products and services, attracting new customers, retaining existing customers, persuading existing customers to adopt additional products and services and hiring and retaining our employees. We believe that the importance of our brand will increase as competition in our markets further intensifies. Successful promotion of our brand will depend on a number of factors, including the effectiveness of our marketing efforts, our ability to provide high-quality, reliable and cost-effective products and services, the perceived value of our products and services and our ability to provide quality customer support. Brand promotion activities require us to make substantial expenditures. To date, we have made significant investments in the promotion of our brands, including more than 60 Betway brand partnerships with sports teams and leagues worldwide. The promotion of our brands, however, may not generate customer awareness or increase revenue to the extent we anticipate, or at all, and any increase in revenue may not offset the expenses we incur in building and maintaining our brand.

We operate in a public-facing industry where negative publicity, including from our customers, whether or not justified, can spread rapidly through, among other things, social media. To the extent that we are unable to respond timeously and appropriately to negative publicity or to the extent our responses to negative publicity are not fairly published or not positively received, our reputation and brands could be harmed. Moreover, even if we are able to respond in a timely and appropriate manner, we cannot predict how negative publicity may affect our reputation and business.

We and our employees also use social media to communicate externally. There is risk that the use of social media by us or our employees to communicate about our business or for any other purpose even in a personal capacity may give rise to negative publicity or liability or result in public exposure of personal information of our employees or customers, each of which could affect our reputation, revenue, business, results of operations and financial condition.

We rely on several different marketing channels to acquire and retain customers and to promote our brands and our products. If we are not able to effectively acquire and retain customers via such channels then our business and operating results may be harmed.

The Company undertakes a variety of marketing initiatives, include traditional marketing channels (such as television, print and radio), digital marketing (such as online display advertising, search engine marketing, social media and “affiliates” marketing) and retention marketing (including via email, text messages and social media). Traditional marketing channels are by their nature difficult to measure. Digital marketing is typically more measurable but somewhat more complex to undertake. Retention marketing is subject to customer consent which is not always granted or may be revoked. Our ability to execute on our marketing plans is subject to regulatory constraints in each market and it is not unusual for marketing-related regulations to change from time to time. If our ability to monitor and measure performance of any of these channels is compromised or if our ability to

execute our plans in any of these channels is in any way inhibited then our ability to acquire and retain customers may be hampered and our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects may suffer.

In some regions and for some brands or products we may rely extensively on independent third-party marketers, known as “affiliates” marketers. “Affiliates” is an industry term that describes independent third parties which assist the Company to acquire new customers and which are generally paid on a revenue-share or cost-per-acquisition basis. Despite the word “affiliate”, these are independent parties that are not otherwise affiliated with the Company in the ordinary sense of the word. Notwithstanding that in some jurisdictions for license purposes we are deemed to control these “affiliates” marketers, their actions in the marketing of our brands are not directly within our control and hence actions, errors, omissions or intentional malfeasance on their part may cause damage to our brands, our business, our prospects and our financial results before we are able to detect such actions, errors, omissions or intentional malfeasance and/or do anything to mitigate the effects thereof. In particular, we can be held accountable by regulatory authorities for actions by such third parties in contravention of our license in a given jurisdiction, which in turn may lead to fines, license suspension, loss of license or other censure, which may in turn harm our business, our prospects and/or our financial performance. Our agreements with such marketers are sometimes such that we are obliged to pay them an ongoing share of revenues derived from customers that they introduce to us, or sometimes such that we are required to pay them a “cost per acquisition” capitation fee for each customer introduced, or sometimes a combination of both. Such third-party “affiliates” are under no obligation to continue introducing customers to us, but we may be obliged to continue to pay them future revenue shares where applicable nonetheless. Our lack of control over such marketers also means that if, for whatever reason, their effectiveness or ability to introduce us to new customers deteriorates then we may have no ability to mitigate or reverse the loss of new customers from this channel. Such marketers may also in certain circumstances have some degree of ongoing influence over the customers that they introduce to us, and hence may be able to subsequently entice such customers away from our brands if they choose to do so.

In some regions and for some brands we may make use of search engine marketing (SEM, which is the purchase of advertising against keywords on search engines) and search engine optimization (SEO, which is the adaptation of our websites and employment of other techniques in order to achieve more favorable rankings when customers search for gambling-related keywords on search engines). Search engines such as Google regularly change their internal proprietary and confidential algorithms by which SEM and SEO operate and typically do so in ways that are not predictable as to timing or effect. If we fail to adapt our marketing methods to these changes or if our competitors do so better than we do then our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects may suffer. Search engines such as Google typically only allow the purchase of advertising against gambling-related keywords by licensed operators in explicitly regulated markets. Accordingly, in markets that are not explicitly regulated but where we are nonetheless legally able to trade, such as Canada outside of Ontario, search engines typically do not allow the purchase of advertising against gambling-related keywords by online gaming operators. While we adhere to this restriction, we cannot be certain that less scrupulous competitors will do the same. If such competitors are able to evade restrictions in such markets, then our ability to acquire new customers may be hampered in those markets as a result. Similarly, search engines typically place restrictions on the manner in which entities or persons who are not the holders of a trademark may advertise against keywords relating to that trademark. If competitors are able to evade restrictions in this regard, then our ability to acquire and retain customers may be hampered as a result.

Several of our marketing channels rely on being able to successfully track customers across different websites and apps and/or to augment our own data with additional marketing data for purposes of measuring and monitoring the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and/or effectively adapting or executing on our marketing campaigns. The ability to do this is under threat of restrictive legislation in some jurisdictions and technology platform providers such as Google and Apple have taken steps to restrict such tracking and augmentation and we expect that further restrictions may be added in future. Such restrictions may hamper our ability to acquire or retain customers and thereby cause our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects to suffer.

Our growth depends in part, on the success of our strategic relationships with third parties. Overreliance on certain third parties, or our inability to extend existing relationships or agree to new relationships may cause unanticipated costs for us and impact our financial performance in the future.

We rely on relationships with sports teams and leagues worldwide, advertisers, casinos and other third parties in order to attract and retain customers to our offerings. These relationships along with providers of online services, search engines, social media, directories and other websites and ecommerce businesses direct consumers to our offerings. In addition, many of the parties with whom we have advertising arrangements provide advertising services to other companies, including other online betting and online casino gaming products with whom we compete. While we believe that there are other third parties that could drive customers to our offerings, adding or transitioning to them may disrupt our business and increase our costs. In the event that any of our existing relationships or our future relationships fail to provide services to us in accordance with the terms of our arrangement, or at all, and we are not able to find suitable alternatives, this could impact our ability to attract and retain customers cost effectively and harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Our growth prospects may suffer if we are unable to develop successful offerings or if we fail to pursue additional offerings. In addition, if we fail to make the right investment decisions in our offerings and technology, we may not attract and retain customers and partners, and our revenue and results of operations may decline.

The industries in which we operate are subject to rapid and frequent changes in standards, technologies, products and service offerings, as well as in customer demands and expectations and regulations. We must continuously make decisions regarding in which offerings and technology we should invest to meet customer demand in compliance with evolving industry standards and regulatory requirements and must continually introduce and successfully market new and innovative technologies, offerings and enhancements to remain competitive and effectively stimulate customer demand, acceptance and engagement. Our ability to engage, retain, and increase our customer base and to increase our revenue will depend on our ability to successfully create new offerings, both independently and together with third parties. We may introduce significant changes to our existing technology and offerings or develop and introduce new and unproven products and services, with which we have little or no prior development or operating experience. The process of developing new offerings and systems is inherently complex and uncertain, and new offerings may not be well received by customers, even if well-reviewed and of high quality. If we are unable to develop technology and products that address customers’ needs or enhance and improve our existing technology and offerings in a timely manner, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Although we intend to continue investing in our research and development efforts, if new or enhanced offerings fail to engage our customers, we may fail to attract or retain customers or to generate sufficient revenue, operating margin, or other value to justify our investments, any of which may seriously harm our business. In addition, management may not properly ascertain or assess the risks of new initiatives, and subsequent events may alter the risks that were evaluated at the time that we decided to execute any new initiative. Creating additional offerings can also divert our management’s attention from other business issues and opportunities. Even if our new offerings attain market acceptance, those new offerings could exploit the market share of our existing product offerings or share of our customers’ wallets in a manner that could negatively impact our business. Furthermore, such expansion of our business increases the complexity of our business and places an additional burden on our management, operations, technical systems and financial resources and we may not recover the often-substantial up-front costs of developing and marketing new offerings, or recover the opportunity cost of diverting management and financial resources away from other offerings. In the event of continued growth of our operations, products or in the number of third-party relationships, we may not have adequate resources, operationally, technologically or otherwise to support such growth and the quality of our technology, offerings or our relationships with third parties could suffer. In addition, failure to effectively identify, pursue and execute new business initiatives, or to efficiently adapt our processes and infrastructure to meet the needs of our innovations, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Additionally, we may make bad or unprofitable decisions regarding these investments. If new or existing competitors offer more attractive offerings, we may lose customers or customers may decrease their spending on our offerings. New customer demands, superior competitive offerings, new industry standards or changes in the regulatory environment could render our existing offerings unattractive, unmarketable or obsolete and require us to make substantial unanticipated changes to our technology or business model. Our failure to adapt to a rapidly changing market or evolving customer demands could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We operate in a rapidly evolving and highly competitive industry and our internal forecasts are subject to the risks and assumptions made by management with respect to this industry. Operating results are difficult to forecast because they generally depend on our assessment of factors that are inherently beyond our control and impossible to predict with certainty, such as the timing of adoption of future legislation and regulations by different jurisdictions. Furthermore, if we invest in the development of new products or distribution channels that do not achieve commercial success, whether because of competition or otherwise, we may not recover the often material “up front” costs of developing and marketing those products and distribution channels, or recover the opportunity cost of diverting management and financial resources away from other products or distribution channels.

Additionally, our business may be affected by reductions in customer acquisition, customer persistency and customer spending as a result of numerous factors which may be difficult to predict. This may result in decreased revenue levels, and we may be unable to adopt timely measures to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in income. Our profitability projections make numerous assumptions about the expected future levels of various expense items. Historically most of these expense items have been relatively stable or predictable either in absolute terms or in relation to revenue but there is no certainty that such stability or predictability will continue into the future. These inabilities could cause our operating results in a given period to be higher or lower than expected. If actual results differ from our estimates, analysts may negatively react and our share price could be adversely impacted.

Our contemplated acquisition of DGC is subject to various conditions, including the requirement that certain regulatory approvals in the United States are obtained. Further, if we are able to successfully consummate our transaction with DGC, the integration of the DGC business, which is incorporated in a different country, with geographically dispersed operations from our own, and with its own business culture and compensation structure, may present significant management challenges. There can be no assurance that the DGC acquisition will be completed or, even if completed, that the integration, and the synergies expected to result from that integration, will be achieved to the extent currently anticipated.

From time to time, we expect that we will pursue acquisitions in support of our strategic goals. In furtherance of such goals, we have executed a binding, definitive agreement to acquire Digital Gaming Corporation Limited (“DGC”). However, our contemplated acquisition of DGC is subject to various conditions, including regulatory approvals in the United States. There can be no assurance that such conditions will be satisfied or that we will be able to successfully complete our contemplated acquisition of DGC. We have invested significant funds into the contemplated acquisition of DGC and the failure to successfully complete the acquisition could have an adverse impact on our expected growth. Further, if we are able to successfully consummate our transaction with DGC, our ability to succeed in implementing our strategy will depend on some degree upon the ability of our management to successfully integrate the DGC business. The integration of the DGC business, which is incorporated in a different country, with geographically dispersed operations from our own, and with its own business culture and compensation structure, may present significant challenges to our management and may disrupt our ongoing business. In addition, we may incur unexpected costs or fail to realize the expected benefits from such acquisition.

We may require additional capital to support our growth plans, and such capital may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. This could hamper our growth and adversely affect our business.

We intend to make significant investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new offerings and features or enhance our existing offerings and features, undertake large scale brand and other marketing campaigns, enter into strategic partnerships with multiple sports teams and leagues, enter into market access agreements, launch into new markets, improve our operating infrastructure or acquire complementary businesses, personnel and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to engage in equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. Our ability to obtain additional capital, if and when required, will depend on our business plans, investor demand, our operating performance, capital markets conditions and other factors. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity, equity-linked or debt securities, those securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the rights of our currently issued and outstanding equity or debt, and our existing shareholders may experience dilution. If we are unable to obtain additional capital when required, or on satisfactory terms, our ability to continue to support our business growth or to respond to business opportunities, challenges or unforeseen circumstances could be adversely affected, and our business may be harmed.

Negative events or negative media coverage relating to, or a declining popularity of, online sports betting, online casino gaming or the underlying sports or athletes on which sports betting is derived, or other negative coverage may adversely impact our ability to retain or attract customers, which could have an adverse impact on our business.

Public opinion can significantly influence our business. Unfavorable publicity regarding, for example, us, our product changes, product quality, litigation, or regulatory activity, or regarding the actions of third parties with whom we have relationships or the underlying sports (including declining popularity of the sports or athletes) could harm our reputation. In addition, a negative shift in the perception of sports betting and online casino gaming by the public or by politicians, lobbyists or others could affect future legislation of sports betting and online casino gaming, which could cause jurisdictions to impose new restrictions on or prohibit sports betting or online casino gaming in jurisdictions in which we currently operate. Furthermore, illegal betting activity by athletes could result in negative publicity for our industry and could harm our brand reputation. Negative public perception could also cause jurisdictions to abandon current plans or proposals to legalize sports betting and online casino gaming, thereby limiting our future growth potential. Such negative publicity could also adversely affect the size, demographics, engagement, and loyalty of our customer base and result in decreased revenue or slower customer growth rates, which could harm our business.

Fraud, corruption or negligence related to sports events, of any sort, whether by or involving our employees or not, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and negatively impact our reputation.

Our reputation and the strength of our brand are key competitive strengths. To the extent that the sports and sports betting industry as a whole or the Company, relative to its competitors, suffers a loss in credibility, our business will be significantly impacted. Factors that could potentially have an impact in this regard include fraud, corruption or negligence related to sports events, including as a result of actual or attempted or alleged match fixing, whether this involves our employees or not. Damage to reputation and credibility could have a material adverse impact on our regulatory licensure, business, financial condition and results of operations.

We have in the past incurred, and may in the future incur, losses from various types of financial fraud, including use of stolen or fraudulent credit card data, claims of unauthorized payments by customers and

attempted payments by customers with insufficient funds. Bad actors use increasingly sophisticated methods to engage in illegal activities involving personal information, such as unauthorized use of another person’s identity, account information or payment information and unauthorized acquisition or use of credit or debit card details, bank account information and mobile phone numbers and accounts. Under current credit card practices, we may be liable for use of funds on our platform with fraudulent credit card data, even if the associated financial institution approved the credit card transaction and may be subject to fines or other sanctions including the termination of our payment processing relationships. If we are unable to detect or are delayed in detecting the actions of successful perpetrators of fraud then such customers may be able to effectively gamble risk-free and may be able to withdraw and be paid any resulting winnings before we have been able to detect the fraud. In such cases we are unlikely to be able to recover the proceeds.

Acts of fraud may involve various tactics, including collusion. Successful exploitation of our systems could have negative effects on our product offerings, services and customer experience and could harm our reputation. Failure to discover such acts or schemes in a timely manner could result in harm to our operations. In addition, negative publicity related to such schemes could have an adverse effect on our reputation, potentially causing a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In the event of the occurrence of any such issues with our existing platform or product offerings, substantial engineering and marketing resources and management attention may be diverted from other projects to correct these issues, which may delay other projects and the achievement of our strategic objectives.

In addition, any misappropriation of, or access to, customers’ or other proprietary information or other breach of our information security could result in legal claims or legal proceedings, including regulatory investigations and actions, or liability for failure to comply with privacy and information security laws, including for failure to protect personal information or for misusing personal information, which could disrupt our operations, force us to modify our business practices, damage our reputation and expose us to claims from our customers, regulators, employees and other persons, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Other potential sources of financial loss to our business may include attempts in contravention of our terms and conditions to exploit incentives or bonuses or comps in conjunction with certain casino game design features or arbitrage sports bets in order to obtain positive expectation for the customer as well as attempts by individual customers to register multiple accounts in order to claim or receive incentives or bonuses or comps multiple times or to disguise collusive betting patterns in order to evade betting limits or to exploit profitable arbitrage betting opportunities. Similar activities might be undertaken by syndicates acting in concert.

Despite measures that we have taken to detect and reduce the occurrence of fraudulent or other malicious activity on our platform, we cannot guarantee that any of our measures will be effective or will scale efficiently with our business. Our failure to adequately detect or prevent fraudulent transactions could result in substantial financial losses and harm our reputation or brand, result in litigation or regulatory action and lead to expenses that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Even if we are successful in preventing or mitigating the effects of fraudulent transactions, doing so successfully may in some circumstances require placing severe restrictions on honest customers, which will in turn hamper the enjoyment of our customers and in turn the prospects and revenues of our business.

In certain jurisdictions in which we operate, such as Belgium, it is necessary to obtain a land-based license in order to offer our online products. In addition, under some U.S. states’ gaming laws, online betting is limited to a finite number of retail operators, such as casinos, tribes or tracks, who own a “skin” or “skins” under that

state’s law. A “skin” is a legally-authorized license from a state to offer online betting services provided by a casino. The “skin” provides a market access opportunity for mobile operators to operate in the jurisdiction pending licensure and other required approvals by the state’s regulator. The entities that control those “skins”, and the numbers of “skins” available, are typically determined by a state’s gaming laws. On April 7, 2021, Super Group has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire DGC, which is the parent of Digital Gaming Corporation USA (“DGC USA”), which holds the exclusive license to use the Betway brand in the United States, subject to certain regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. DGC USA has secured market access in an initial 12 regulated or expected-to-be regulated states in the U.S.. The acquisition is expected to close at the end of 2022 or in January 2023. In most of the jurisdictions in which DGC USA offers sports betting and online casino gaming, it currently relies on a casino, tribe or track in order to get a “skin.” These “skins” are what allows DGC USA to gain access to jurisdictions where online operators are required to have a retail relationship. If we cannot establish, renew or manage our land-based international or U.S. relationships, they could terminate and we would not be allowed to operate in those jurisdictions until we enter into new relationships, which might not be possible if no other potential operators are available or wiling to partner with us, or could be at significantly higher cost. As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Some of our and DGC USA’s market access agreements provide for minimum guaranteed payments to the third party. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue to offset the minimum guaranteed payments, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Certain of our and DGC USA’s market access agreements grant the market access partner rights to audit the financial calculations of payments under these agreements. Disputes with market access partners over terms could result in the payment of additional amounts or penalties by us or DGC USA, cancellation or non-renewal of the underlying agreement or litigation.

Participation in the sports betting industry exposes us to trading, liability management and pricing risks. We may experience lower than expected profitability and potentially significant losses as a result of a failure to determine accurately the odds in relation to any particular event and/or any failure of our sports risk management processes.

Our fixed-odds betting products involve betting where winnings are paid on the basis of the stake placed and the odds quoted. Odds are determined with the objective of providing an average return to the bookmaker over a large number of events and therefore, over the long term, our gross win percentage has remained reasonably in line with expectations. However, there can be significant variation in gross win percentage event-by-event and day-by-day. We have systems and controls that seek to reduce the risk of daily losses occurring on a gross-win basis, but there can be no assurance that these will be effective in reducing our exposure, and consequently our exposure to this risk in the future. This is particularly true in respect of parlay or accumulator wagers, where multiple individual wagers are combined into one to create the possibility of significant aggregate payouts. As a result, in the short term, there is less certainty of generating a positive gross win percentage, and we may experience (and we have from time to time experienced) significant losses with respect to individual events or betting outcomes, in particular if large individual bets are placed on an event or betting outcome or series of events or betting outcomes or if a number of parlay or accumulator wagers are successful. Odds compilers and risk managers are capable of human error, thus even allowing for the fact that a number of betting products are subject to capped pay-outs, significant volatility can occur. In some markets we rely on third-party odds compilers and risk managers and hence do not always have real-time oversight of their activities. In certain instances it is possible for customers to engage in positive expectation arbitrage betting which we might not always be able to detect. It is also possible for customers to exploit incentives or bonuses or comps for positive expectation for the customer and we might not always be able to detect or otherwise to prevent this even when we do detect it. In addition, it is possible that there may be such a high volume of trading during any particular period that even automated systems would be unable to address and eradicate all risks. Any significant losses on a gross-win basis could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if a jurisdiction where we hold or wish to apply for a license imposes a high turnover tax for betting (as opposed to a gross-win tax), this too would impact profitability, particularly with high value/low margin bets, and likewise have a material adverse effect on our business.

We may have difficulty accessing the services of banks, credit card issuers and payment processing services providers due to the nature of our business, which may make it difficult to sell our products and offerings.

Although financial institutions and payment processors are permitted to provide services to us and others in our industry, banks, credit card issuers and payment processing service providers may be hesitant to offer banking and payment processing services to real money gaming and online sports betting businesses. Consequently, businesses involved in our industry, including our own, may encounter difficulties in establishing and maintaining banking and payment processing relationships with a full scope of services and generating market rate interest. Similarly, our customers’ banks and/or credit card providers might decline to allow our customers to effect transactions with online gaming or sports betting businesses or might block such attempted transactions. If we are unable to maintain our bank accounts or our customers are unable to use their credit cards, bank accounts or e-wallets to make deposits and withdrawals from our platforms, it would be difficult for us to operate our business and increase our operating costs, and would pose additional operational, logistical and security challenges which could result in an inability to implement our business plan and harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

As a result of the Business Combination we became a public company, and as such, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. We will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and will be required to comply with the applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, as well as the rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC and the listing standards of the NYSE, including changes in corporate governance practices and the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls. Compliance with these rules and regulations can be burdensome. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our historical legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, we expect that these rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance than we obtained as a private company, and could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our Board. In particular, we have incurred significant expenses and devoted substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which will increase beginning with the filing of our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. We may need to hire additional accounting and financial staff, and engage outside consultants, all with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge and maintain an internal audit function, which will increase our operating expenses. Moreover, we could incur additional compensation costs in the event that we decide to pay cash compensation to our directors, officers and employees closer to that of other public companies, which would increase our general and administrative expenses and could adversely affect our profitability. Furthermore, if we are unable to satisfy our obligations as a public company, we could be subject to the delisting of our Ordinary Shares and warrants, fines, sanctions and other regulatory action and potentially civil litigation. We are evaluating these rules and regulations, and cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

We have historically not been required to document and test our internal controls over financial reporting, our management have not been required to certify the effectiveness of our internal controls and our auditors have

not been required to opine on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. However, as a public company in the United States, we are required to document and test our internal controls over financial reporting and, beginning with the filing of our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, our management will be required to certify the effectiveness of our internal controls and we will become subject to the SEC’s auditor attestation requirements. We may not be able to complete our evaluation, testing and any required remediation in a timely fashion. In addition, our current controls and any new controls that we develop may become inadequate because of poor design and changes in our business, including increased complexity resulting from any international expansion. Any failure to implement and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could adversely affect the results of assessments by our independent registered public accounting firm and their attestation reports.

If we are unable to certify the effectiveness of our internal controls, or if our internal controls have a material weakness, we may not detect errors timeously, our consolidated financial statements could be misstated, and we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny and a loss of confidence by stakeholders, which could harm our business and adversely affect the market price of our shares.

We identified material weaknesses in connection with our internal control over financial reporting. Although we are taking steps to remediate these material weaknesses, there is no assurance we will be successful in doing so in a timely manner, or at all, and we may identify other material weaknesses.

In connection with the audits of our consolidated financial statements for fiscal years 2021, 2020 and 2019 and unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of the six month period ended June 30, 2022, our management and independent registered public accounting firm identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. For fiscal years 2020 and 2019 the material weaknesses related to (i) a lack of consistent application of IFRS reporting requirements across the enlarged business and (ii) the fact that policies and procedures with respect to the review, supervision and monitoring of our accounting and reporting functions were either not operating effectively and consistently for the full period across the entire business or were not designed appropriately and in place. For fiscal year 2021, the material weaknesses related to (i) the fact that policies and procedures with respect to the review, supervision and monitoring of our accounting and reporting functions were either not operating effectively and consistently for the full period across the entire business or were not designed appropriately and in place, and (ii) inadequate internal controls over the retention of records and timely application of records in management’s accounting assessments and conclusions. In addition to the material weaknesses identified in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, for the six month period ended June 30, 2022, the material weakness related to the application of IFRS reporting requirements in respect of the classification and measurement of material financial statement balances. This arose in respect of the classification of corporate tax balances, the current vs. non-current classification of earnout and warrant liabilities, the classification of the foreign exchange losses in relation to the earnout and warrant liabilities and the classification and calculation of the accounting entries in respect of the Restricted Stock Units issued in fiscal year 2022.

We have commenced measures to remediate these material weaknesses, including hiring additional consultants and staff. Management are overseeing the implementation of improved processes and internal controls, building our financial management and reporting infrastructure. We continue to engage with third party specialists, as required, for complex accounting matters.

We are currently not required to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and are therefore not required to make an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. However, as a public company, we will be required to maintain internal control over financial reporting and to report any material weaknesses in such internal control. In addition, we will be required to furnish a report by our management on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, at the time we file our second annual report on Form 20-F with the SEC, which will be for the year ending December 31, 2022 and we will become subject to the SEC’s auditor attestation requirements. Further, our independent registered public accounting firm is not required and has not been engaged to express,

nor have they expressed, an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Had we and our independent registered public accounting firm performed an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, additional control deficiencies may have been identified by our management or independent registered public accounting firm, and such control deficiencies could have also represented one or more material weaknesses in addition to those previously identified.

Assessing our procedures to improve our internal control over financial reporting is an ongoing process. We can provide no assurance that our remediation efforts described herein will be successful and that we will not have material weaknesses in the future. Any material weaknesses we identify could result in an adverse reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our consolidated financial statements.

If our existing material weaknesses persist or we experience additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls in the future, we may not be able to accurately report our financial condition or results of operations, which may adversely affect investor confidence in us and, as a result, the value of our Ordinary Shares and our overall business.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting annually and the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures annually. In particular, Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or Section 404(a), will require us to perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or Section 404(b), also requires our independent registered public accounting firm to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. To date, we have been exempt from the requirement that our independent registered public accounting firm attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404(b). However, we will no longer be exempt from this requirement beginning with the filing of our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. When our independent registered public accounting firm is required to undertake an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, the cost of our compliance with Section 404(b) will correspondingly increase. Our compliance with applicable provisions of Section 404 will require that we incur substantial accounting expense and expend significant management time on compliance-related issues as we implement additional corporate governance practices and comply with reporting requirements.

Furthermore, investor perceptions of our company may suffer if additional deficiencies are found in our internal control over financial reporting, and this could cause a decline in the market price of our shares and accordingly our overall business. Regardless of compliance with Section 404, our failure to remediate the material weaknesses which have been identified or any additional failure of our internal control over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our stated operating results and harm our reputation. If we are unable to implement these requirements effectively or efficiently, it could harm our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operation, cash flows or prospects and could result in an adverse opinion on our internal controls from our independent registered public accounting firm.

Our business includes significant international operations, and we are likely to be exposed to foreign currency transaction and translation risks. As a result, changes in the valuation of any major currency with which we conduct business in relation to other currencies could have positive or negative effects on our profitability and financial position.

Our global operations are likely to expose us to foreign currency transaction and translation risks. Currency transaction risk occurs in conjunction with purchases and sales of products and services that are made in currencies other than the local currency of the subsidiary involved, for example if the parent company pays, or transfers British pound sterling to a subsidiary in order to fund its expenses in local currencies. Currency translation risks occurs when the income statement and balance sheet of a foreign subsidiary is converted into

currencies other than the local currency of the company involved, for example when the results of these subsidiaries are consolidated in the results of a parent company with a different reporting currency.

Due to our international operations, a significant portion of our business is denominated in foreign currencies. As a result, fluctuations in foreign currency and exchange rates may have an impact on our business, results of operations and financial position. Foreign currency exchange rates have fluctuated and may continue to fluctuate. Significant foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations may negatively impact our international revenue, which in turn affects our consolidated revenue. Currencies may be affected by internal factors, general economic conditions and external developments in other countries, all of which can have an adverse impact on a country’s currency. Currently, we are not party to any hedging transactions intended to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. We may seek to enter into hedging transaction in the future, but we may be unable to enter into these transactions successfully, on acceptable terms or at all. We cannot predict whether we will incur foreign exchange losses in the future. Further, significant foreign exchange fluctuations resulting in a decline in the respective local currency may decrease the value of our foreign assets, as well as decrease our revenues and earnings from our foreign subsidiaries, which would reduce our profitability and adversely affect our financial position.

Our business and results of operations may be adversely affected by political, economic and social instability risks, currency restrictions and devaluation, and various local laws associated with doing business in countries in emerging economies, including in South America, Africa and Asia.

We derive a portion of our revenue from our transactions in countries categorized as emerging economies, including countries in South America, Africa and Asia, and we expect to continue to grow our operations in these regions. As such, our business is subject to the various political, social, economic, fiscal and monetary policies and factors that affect companies operating in emerging economies, which could have a significant effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. While certain emerging economies feature developed and sophisticated business sectors and financial and legal infrastructure at the core of their economy, they are also affected by socio-economic challenges such as high levels of unemployment, poverty and crime and large parts of the population, particularly in rural areas, do not have access to adequate education, health care, housing and other services, including water and electricity. Government policies aimed at alleviating and redressing the disadvantages suffered under previous governments of countries in the region may increase the costs and reduce the profitability of our business.

Our business model relies on an increase in internet penetration and digital literacy in emerging economies. Even though the main urban centers of many countries considered to be emerging economies typically offer reliable wired internet service, a substantial portion of the population are inhabitants of rural areas, which largely depend on mobile networks. Internet penetration in the markets in which we operate or may operate in the future may not reach the levels seen in more developed countries or other emerging markets for reasons that are beyond our control, including the lack of necessary network infrastructure or delayed implementation of performance improvements or security measures. The internet infrastructure in the markets in which we operate or may operate in the future may not be able to support continued growth in the number of customers, their frequency of use or their bandwidth requirements. Delays in telecommunication and infrastructure development or other technology shortfalls may also impede improvements in internet reliability. If telecommunications services are not sufficiently available to support the growth of the internet, response times could be slower, which would reduce internet usage and harm our platform. Internet penetration in our target markets amongst emerging economies may even stagnate or decline. In addition, digital illiteracy among many customers in emerging economies presents obstacles to e-commerce growth. If internet penetration and digital literacy do not increase in our current and future markets of operation in emerging economies, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects in emerging economies.

It is difficult to predict the future political, social and economic direction of emerging economies in which we operate or the manner in which any future governments of such countries will attempt to address regional inequalities. It is also difficult to predict the impact that addressing these inequalities will have on our business.

Furthermore, there has been regional, political and economic instability in emerging economies generally, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. While we believe that economic conditions in emerging economies will improve, poverty in emerging economies will decline and the purchasing power of customers in emerging economies will increase in the long term, there can be no assurance that these expected developments will materialize. The development of emerging economies, markets and levels of customer spending are influenced by many factors beyond our control, including customer perception of current and future economic conditions, acts of warfare and civil clashes, political uncertainty, employment levels, social and labor unrest due to economic and political factors, arbitrary interference with private ownership of rights in respect of land, inflation or deflation, real disposable income, poverty rates, wealth distribution, interest rates, taxation, currency exchange rates and weather conditions. An economic downturn, whether actual or perceived, currency volatility, a decrease in economic growth rates or an otherwise uncertain economic outlook in emerging economies could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects in the region.

Additionally, governments of the emerging economies in which we operate may impose or tighten foreign currency exchange control restrictions, taxes or limitations with regard to repatriation of earnings and investments from these countries. If exchange control restrictions, taxes or limitations are imposed or tightened, our ability to receive dividends or other payments from affected jurisdictions could be reduced, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, corporate, contract, property, insolvency, competition, securities and other laws and regulations in many of the emerging economies in which we operate have been, and continue to be, substantially revised. Therefore, the interpretation and procedural safeguards of the new legal and regulatory systems are in the process of being developed and defined, and existing laws and regulations may be applied inconsistently. Also, in some circumstances, it may not be possible to obtain the legal remedies provided for under these laws and regulations in a reasonably timely manner, if at all. Any of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects in the region.

Asian geopolitical and other risks are of significant importance to our business owing to the revenue that we receive from a third party in respect of licensing the use of our Betway brand to that party. A decline in such third-party operator’s financial performance, for any reason could have an adverse effect on our business. See “ — Risks Related to Super Group’s Business — We license the Betway brand, for a fixed fee, for use by DGC USA in the United States and, for a fixed fee plus an additional fee equal to a percentage of Betway’s global brand marketing spend, to a third party for use in China and Thailand. A decline in such third party operators’ financial performance or a termination of the brand licenses by such third parties could have an adverse effect on our business.”

Our business is dependent on certain large markets, the loss of which or slower growth in which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business derives a large percentage of its revenues from a small number of markets. For example, 46% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was derived from the Americas, of which a majority was derived from Canada. There can be no assurance that we would be able to recover or replace a significant reduction in revenue or growth thereof derived from one or more of these markets if that were to happen for any reason, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business is particularly sensitive to reductions from time to time in discretionary consumer spending. Demand for entertainment and leisure activities, including gaming, can be affected by changes in the economy and consumer tastes, both of which are difficult to predict and beyond our control. Unfavorable changes in

general economic conditions, including recessions, economic slowdowns, sustained high levels of unemployment, and rising prices or the perception by consumers of weak or weakening economic conditions, may reduce our customers’ disposable income or result in fewer individuals engaging in entertainment and leisure activities, such as sports betting and online casino gaming. Similarly, consumer spending may be dampened by a general consensus of expected higher future increases in prices that leads to consumers reducing spending now to increase savings and reserves for the future. As a result, we cannot ensure that demand for our offerings will remain constant. Economic recessions have had, and may continue to have, far reaching adverse consequences across many industries, including the global entertainment and gaming industries, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. We are currently experiencing significant inflationary pressure and a global recession, and if recovery is slow or stalls, or we experience a further downturn as a result of a subsequent wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, we may experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

In addition, changes in general market, economic and political conditions in domestic and foreign economies or financial markets, including fluctuation in stock markets resulting from, among other things, trends in the economy as a whole may reduce customers’ disposable income. Any one of these changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects and cannot be certain as to the extent or the duration of the related impact.

We are susceptible to macroeconomic events and geopolitical factors, which may adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.

SGHC operates across a wide range of countries on all of the inhabited continents of the world. Not all of these countries are subject to the same economic and political forces at the same time, which usually provides SGHC with a natural degree of macroeconomic and geopolitical diversification. There are, however, likely to be periods of time in which many or even most or all of the countries in which SGHC operates will be subject to similar or identical forces that may impact SGHC’s business negatively. An example of this is the geopolitical and macroeconomic headwinds that appear to have initially been set off by the Russian invasion of Ukraine launched on February 24, 2022, which resulted in increased volatility in the financial markets and disruptions to various industries, simultaneously with the tightening of Covid-related monetary policy in the face of expectations of increase consumer price inflation in many countries around the world. In particular, we bear the risk of reduced demand for our services due to the rise of inflation. In combination, these factors potentially have a chilling effect on consumer discretionary entertainment spending, which could in turn be harmful to SGHC’s revenue and profitability prospects. In addition, macroeconomic and geopolitical events often evolve in a rapid pace and may evolve in unexpected ways, making it difficult for us to react in time with appropriate measures. The occurrence of such events and developments may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.

We face significant regulatory challenges associated with our participation in the Ontario market and in Canada as a whole.

We participate in the Ontario sports betting and casino market, which has been transitioning to a new regulatory environment. We have been required to incorporate additional minor know-your-customer requirements that are unique to the regulated regime in Ontario when acquiring new customers, which has placed an additional burden on our resources as our teams continue in their efforts to make customer onboarding as smooth as possible.

Our Canadian business outside of Ontario also experienced comparatively challenging trading conditions that are in part attributable to a combination of post-Covid normalization and geopolitical and/or macroeconomic factors.

During the third quarter of 2022, following extensive investigation into the continuing relative weakness of Spin’s Canadian business outside of Ontario, management became aware of a complex and carefully disguised

technical scheme intended to divert a significant portion of Spin’s Canadian customers (outside of Ontario) to a competitor’s online casino operations, which has, in doing so, infringed upon a number of Spin’s intellectual property rights.

To management’s knowledge, following a thorough, and ongoing, investigation, Betway’s trademark and brand has, to date, not been similarly abused.

Such abuse is, by design, difficult to detect and curtail, and as Spin’s brands are so recognizable in the Canadian market, it is an attractive target for this method of intellectual property rights infringement to drive traffic to third party sites.

Management is initiating appropriate action to remediate, curb, and/or stop the harm incurred and plans to implement additional processes for improved future detection and/or prevention of such abuse.

We cannot be certain either how much revenue we may have lost as a result of this transgression and the related infringement on our Spin intellectual property or that we will be successful in recovering any of it.

Furthermore, we cannot be certain that the additional processes we will or may implement will be sufficient to prevent the reoccurrence of such infringement. Any infringement on our intellectual property rights could have an adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, or results of operations.

Litigation and Regulatory Risks

The gaming industry is highly regulated and we are required to maintain licenses and pay requisite gaming taxes and other fees in each jurisdiction from which we operate in order to continue our operations and remain compliant with our licenses. Aside from jurisdictions in which we operate by virtue of a locally awarded license, we also operate in other jurisdictions by virtue of relevant licenses awarded by other recognized regulatory authorities. Our reliance on such licenses is at times based on the lack of a local regulatory framework in that jurisdiction where our services are accessed and used by customers, or based on a specific legal position and interpretation of local legislation. Such interpretation, at times, includes, but is not limited to, a legal position based on EU law or supranational law. As gaming laws may be subject to alternate interpretations, including regarding their conformity with EU or supranational law, there is a risk that our interpretation would be contested by a governmental agency or regulator and our legal position ultimately rejected, which may result in administrative, civil or criminal prosecution or penalties. Furthermore, we have in the past faced, and continue to face, civil claims from customers contesting the legal basis of our services in certain jurisdictions, such as Austria, where we have, to date, settled some claims and are contesting others, and may continue to face similar claims again in future. This may materially adversely impact our profitability in such jurisdictions and/or our ability to carry on business in such jurisdictions and/or our ability to apply for or retain gaming licenses and/or could cause us to cease offering some or all of our offerings in the impacted jurisdictions and thereby have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

Failure to comply with legal or regulatory requirements in a particular regulated jurisdiction, or the failure to successfully obtain a license or permit in a particular regulated jurisdiction, could impact our ability to comply with licensing and regulatory requirements in other regulated jurisdictions, or could cause the rejection of license applications or cancellation of existing licenses in other regulated jurisdictions, or could cause financial institutions, online and mobile platforms, advertisers and distributors to stop providing services to us which we rely upon to receive payments from, or distribute amounts to, our customers, or otherwise to deliver and promote our offerings.

Compliance with the various regulations applicable to sports betting and real money casino gaming is costly and time-consuming. Regulatory authorities of the jurisdictions in which we operate, or seek to operate, our business have broad powers with respect to the regulation and licensing of sports betting and casino gaming operations and may revoke, suspend, condition or limit our sports betting or casino gaming licenses, impose substantial fines on us and take other actions, any one of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. These laws and regulations are dynamic and subject to potentially differing interpretations, and various legislative and regulatory bodies may expand current laws or regulations or enact new laws and regulations regarding these matters. As such, we engage local counsel to advise on compliance with applicable laws and regulations and we will strive to comply with all applicable laws and regulations relating to our business. It is possible, however, that these requirements may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another and may conflict with other rules. Non-compliance or alleged non-compliance with any such law or regulations could expose us to claims, proceedings, litigation, investigations and prosecutions by private parties and enforcement and regulatory authorities, as well as substantial fines, negative publicity, detention or incarceration of management or other personnel, and revocation, suspension, condition or limitation of our sports betting and gaming licenses, each of which may adversely affect our business.

Any sports betting or gaming license could be revoked, suspended or conditioned at any time. The loss of a license in one jurisdiction could trigger the loss of a license or affect our eligibility for such a license in another jurisdiction, and any such losses, or potential for such loss, could cause us to cease offering some or all of our offerings in the impacted jurisdictions. We may be unable to obtain or maintain all necessary registrations, licenses, permits or approvals, and could incur fines or experience delays related to the licensing process, which could adversely affect our operations. Our delay or failure to obtain or maintain licenses in any jurisdiction may prevent us from distributing our offerings, increasing our customer base and/or generating revenues. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain and maintain the licenses and related approvals necessary to conduct our sports betting and online casino gaming operations. Any failure to maintain or renew our existing licenses, registrations, permits or approvals could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Our growth prospects depend on the regulatory status of real-money gaming in various jurisdictions. Real-money gaming is an area of focus in several jurisdictions, and regulation may not occur in as many jurisdictions as we expect, or may occur at a slower pace than we anticipate. Additionally, even if additional jurisdictions regulate real-money gaming, this may be accompanied by legislative or regulatory restrictions and/or taxes that make it commercially unviable to operate in those jurisdictions, or the process of implementing regulations or securing the necessary licenses to operate in a particular jurisdiction may take longer than we anticipate, which could adversely affect our future results of operations and make it more difficult to meet our expectations for financial performance.

A number of jurisdictions in which we operate, or seek to operate, our business have regulated, or are currently considering regulating, real money gaming, and our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are significantly dependent upon regulation of real money gaming. Our business plan is partially based upon the regulation of real money gaming in these jurisdictions; however, this regulation may not occur as we have anticipated. Additionally, if a large number of jurisdictions enact real money gaming legislation and we are unable to obtain, or are otherwise delayed in obtaining the necessary licenses to operate online sports betting or online casino gaming websites in those jurisdictions where such games are regulated, our future growth in online sports betting and online casino gaming could be impaired.

As we enter into new jurisdictions, governments may regulate real money gaming in a manner that is unfavorable to us. As a result, we may encounter legal, regulatory and political challenges that are difficult or impossible to foresee and which could result in an unforeseen adverse impact on planned revenues or costs associated with the new opportunity. For example, certain jurisdictions require us to have a relationship with a land-based, licensed casino for access to online sports betting and/or online casino gaming, which tends to increase our costs of revenue. Jurisdictions that have established government monopolies may limit opportunities for private sector participants like us. Governments in certain jurisdictions also impose substantial tax rates on online sports betting and gaming revenue, in addition to sales taxes in certain jurisdictions and an excise tax on the amount of each wager. As many relevant taxes apply to various measures of modified gross profit, tax rates that are higher than we expect will make it more costly and less desirable for us to launch in a given jurisdiction, while tax increases in any of our existing jurisdictions may adversely impact our profitability.

Both Spin, via Cadtree Limited and Betway, via Cadway Limited, have successfully registered to offer their respective sports and/or casino products to Ontario residents, and are both currently live in Ontario. Whilst other Canadian provinces are, eventually, reasonably expected to follow suit, the process and timeline for each province remains unclear. In the past, when other countries have introduced regulatory frameworks, our financial results have been impacted by, amongst other things, increased taxation and compliance costs, offset by improvements in other costs of doing business such as payment processing and product costs. In some cases the introduction of a restrictive regulatory regime has resulted in a decrease in the size of the market, whereas in others a liberal regulatory regime has led to an increase in the size of the market. Although it is possible that all of the above will expand the size of the total addressable market in Canada and/or improve the profitability of the Canadian market for us, at this point this cannot be said for certain and it is possible that parties like us that have pre-existing Ontario or Canadian operations may be at a disadvantage under these new frameworks unless we are prepared to agree to certain conditions. While we actively seek out regulated jurisdictions for the expansion of our business and therefore welcome the Ontario regulatory framework, we cannot be certain about the future impacts of these changing circumstances on our business, operations or financial prospects. The Americas accounted for 46% of our business revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2022, and Canada is our largest market in the Americas. To the extent that competition in these key markets is increased and we are unable to maintain our related business, it may have a material adverse effect on them. Therefore, even in cases in which a jurisdiction purports to license and regulate sports betting or gaming, the licensing and regulatory regimes can vary considerably in terms of their business-friendliness and at times may be intended to provide incumbent operators with advantages over new licensees. Therefore, some “liberalized” regulatory regimes are considerably more or less commercially attractive than others.

Our growth prospects in certain jurisdictions depend upon the ability of customers to deposit funds in order to participate in our gaming products. Payment providers in those jurisdictions may exercise independent judgment over whether our gaming operations comply with the requirements of local laws and regulations, and may also place independent limitations on businesses involved in the gaming industry as a whole based upon their own interpretations of regulatory or reputational risks. The inability to access sufficient payment processing resources has in the past and could in the future limit the growth of the business in those jurisdictions.

Our business depends in part on the ability of customers to deposit funds in order to utilize our betting and online casino gaming products. Payment providers in local jurisdictions provide this ability to our customers. These payment providers require us to comply with their operating rules as well as local laws and regulations. The payment providers set their operating rules and have discretion to interpret the rules and change them at any time. Changes to these rules, laws or regulations or how they are interpreted could have a significant impact on our business and financial results. These operating rules, laws and regulations vary from one jurisdiction to another and future legislative and regulatory action, court decisions or other governmental action, which may be affected by, among other things, political pressures, attitudes and climates, as well as personal biases, may have a material impact on our operations and financial results. Future legislative and regulatory action, and court decisions or other governmental action, may have a material impact on our planned sports betting and/or online casino gaming operations. Payment providers could view us, or the sports betting and/or online casino gaming industry in general, as high risk, despite our efforts to obtain all applicable licenses or approvals. The inability to access sufficient payment processing resources has in the past, and could in the future, limit the growth of our business which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as well as impact our reputation.

Our growth prospects and market potential will depend on our ability to obtain licenses to operate in a number of regulated jurisdictions and if we fail to obtain such licenses our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be impaired.

Our ability to grow our business will depend on our ability to obtain and maintain licenses to offer our product offerings in a large number of jurisdictions or in heavily populated jurisdictions. If we fail to obtain and maintain licenses in large jurisdictions or in a greater number of mid-market jurisdictions, this may prevent us from expanding the footprint of our product offerings, increasing our customer base and/or generating revenues. We cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain and maintain licenses and related approvals necessary to conduct our online sports betting and gaming operations. Any failure to obtain and maintain licenses, registrations, permits or approvals could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We are subject to risks relating to revenue received from customers located in countries that are sanctioned or that prohibit gaming activities, which could result in fines or other liabilities and could harm our business.

Our global operations require us to comply with laws and regulations imposed by governments around the world with jurisdiction over our operations. Some of our customers may be located in countries that are subject to sanction laws or that prohibit gaming activities. Although we have taken precautions to prevent our product offerings from being provided or accessed in such jurisdictions, including systems and processes for the detection of willful and fraudulent attempts by customers to circumvent our precautions such as the use of virtual private networks and other technologies, we cannot assure you that such precautions are or will be fully effective and we could inadvertently or unwittingly provide access to our product offerings to persons located in sanctioned countries or countries that prohibit gaming activities. In addition, we have systems and controls in place that are intended to detect and resolve such violations; however, we cannot assure you that such systems and controls will be effective. If we are found to be in violation of any applicable sanctions or other laws and regulations, it could result in significant fines, prosecution or other liabilities and could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our failures to comply with the anti-corruption, anti-bribery, sanctions, anti-money laundering, privacy/personal information, responsible gaming, consumer protection and similar laws could result in legal penalties and fines, and/or negatively impact our reputation and results operations.

Doing business on a worldwide basis requires us to comply with anti-corruption laws and regulations imposed by governments around the world with jurisdiction over our operations, which may include the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), the Prevention of Corruption (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Law, 2003 (as amended) (the “Guernsey Bribery Law”) and the U.K. Bribery Act 2010 (“U.K. Bribery Act”), as well as the laws of the other countries where we do business. These laws and regulations may restrict our operations, trade practices, investment decisions and partnering activities. The FCPA, the Guernsey Bribery Law, the U.K. Bribery Act and other applicable laws prohibit us and our officers, directors, employees and business partners acting on our behalf, including agents, from corruptly offering, promising, authorizing or providing anything of value to “foreign officials” for the purposes of influencing official decisions or obtaining or retaining business or otherwise obtaining favorable treatment. The U.K. Bribery Act also prohibits non-governmental “commercial” bribery and accepting bribes. We are subject to the jurisdiction of various governments and regulatory agencies around the world, which may bring our personnel and representatives into contact with “foreign officials” responsible for issuing or renewing permits, licenses or approvals or for enforcing other governmental regulations.

In addition, some of the international locations in which we operate lack a developed legal system and have elevated levels of corruption. Our international operations expose us to the risk of violating, or being accused of violating, anti-corruption laws and regulations. Our failure to successfully comply with these laws and regulations may expose us to reputational harm, as well as significant sanctions, including criminal fines, imprisonment, civil penalties, disgorgement of profits, injunctions and debarment from government contracts, as well as other remedial measures. Investigations of alleged violations can be expensive and disruptive. We are continuously developing and maintaining policies and procedures designed to comply with applicable anti-corruption laws and regulations. However, there can be no guarantee that our policies and procedures will effectively prevent violations by our employees or business partners acting on our behalf, and any such violation could adversely affect our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, we are required to comply with the various responsible gaming regulations of those jurisdictions where we are licensed and from which we offer gambling services. These regulations, which in some jurisdictions are constantly being scrutinized, altered and broadened by the various legislators and/or regulators, may restrict our operations and partnerships, lead to enforcement actions that may result in fines, penalties, prosecutions or other sanctions, and at times may heavily impact our operations in and revenue from a certain jurisdiction. Consumer protection legislation and regulations apply to us as well, both of those jurisdictions from which we offer our services and of those where our services are consumed by our customers. These laws and regulations may have an impact on the scope of our offering and limit it significantly.

We have been the subject of governmental investigations and inquiries with respect to the operation of our businesses and we could be subject to future governmental investigations and inquiries, legal proceedings and enforcement actions. Any sanctions or costly regulatory settlements arising from governmental investigations, inquiries, proceedings or actions could adversely affect our business. Due to the nature of applicable regulatory frameworks, sanctions or enforcement or disciplinary actions in one jurisdiction may also have consequences in other jurisdictions, creating broader negative impacts on our business.

We have received formal and informal inquiries from time to time, from government authorities and regulators, including tax authorities and gaming regulators, regarding compliance with laws and other matters, and we may receive such inquiries in the future, particularly as we grow and expand our operations.

Violations of existing or future regulation, regulatory orders or consent decrees could subject us to substantial monetary fines, prosecutions and other penalties that could negatively affect our financial condition

and operations. This could include sanctions ranging from a warning to revocation of our licenses or the licenses of our executives or employees. In addition, it is possible that future orders issued by, or inquiries or enforcement actions initiated by, government or regulatory authorities could cause us to incur substantial costs, expose us to unanticipated liability or penalties, or require us to change our business practices in a manner adverse to our business.

Palpable (obvious) errors in the posting of sports wagering odds or event times may occasionally occur in the normal course of business, sometimes for large liabilities. While it is a worldwide standard business practice to void bets associated with palpable errors or to correct the odds, there is no guarantee that regulators will approve voiding palpable errors moving forward in every case.

We offer a huge spectrum of betting markets across dozens of sports, and the odds are set through a combination of algorithmic and manual odds making. Bet acceptance is also a combination of automatic and manual acceptance. In some cases, the odds offered on the website constitute an obvious error. Examples of such errors are inverted lines between teams, or odds that are significantly different from the true odds of the outcome in a way that all reasonable persons would agree is an error. It is commonplace virtually worldwide for operators to void bets associated with such palpable errors, and in most mature jurisdictions these bets can be voided without regulatory approval at operator discretion. In some jurisdictions, it is unclear long term if regulators will consistently approve voids or re-setting odds to correct odds on such bets. In some cases, we require regulatory approval to void palpable errors ahead of time. If regulators were to not allow voiding of bets associated with large obvious errors in odds making, we could be subject to covering significant liabilities.

We follow the industry practice of restricting and managing sports betting limits at the individual customer level based on individual customer profiles and risk level to the enterprise; however there is no guarantee that countries or states will allow operators such as us to limit on the individual customer level.

Similar to a credit card company managing individual risk on the customer level through credit limits, it is customary for sports betting operators to manage customer betting limits at the individual level to manage enterprise risk levels. We believe that this practice is beneficial overall, because if it were not possible, betting options would be restricted globally and limits available to customers would be much lower to insulate overall risk due to the existence of a very small segment of highly sophisticated syndicates and algorithmic bettors, or bettors looking to take advantage of site errors and omissions. We believe that virtually all operators balance taking reasonable action from all customers against the risk of individual customers significantly harming the business viability. We cannot assure you that all jurisdictions and regulators will always allow operators to execute limits at the individual customer level, or at their sole discretion.

We evaluate the expected profitability of customers at the individual customer level based on individual customer profiles and behaviors and attempt to responsibly incentivize and/or encourage (or discourage, as the case may be) and reward customers accordingly; however there is no guarantee that countries or states will allow operators such as us to continue to do so or that our efforts to do so are currently or will in the future be profitable.

We collect and evaluate data regarding the behavior and activity of our customers on our websites and in our apps. This data is used to determine the expected profitability of each customer so that we can in turn recommend appropriate games and wagers to customers (based on our understanding of their preferences) and so that we can (subject to responsible gaming regulations and/or best practice, as the case may be) offer incentives or bonuses or comps in a manner that attempts to responsibly optimize the confluence of customer enjoyment and our profitability. Such incentives or bonuses or comps may be subject to terms and conditions that are customized per individual customer, including specific wagering requirements and/or game or wager limitations.

We believe that this practice is beneficial overall, because if it were not possible, our products, incentives, bonuses and comps would be restricted globally and such benefits available to customers would be much lower to insulate overall risk due to the existence of a very small segment of highly sophisticated syndicates and individuals

looking to take advantage of such benefits for profit. We believe that virtually all operators balance taking reasonable action from all customers against the risk of individual customers significantly harming the business viability. We cannot assure you that all jurisdictions and regulators will always allow operators to collect the data that we do or to evaluate customers in the way that we do or to offer or promote products, incentives, bonuses and comps in the individualized manner that we do. There have been in the past and may also in the future be situations where we are restricted to offering uniform products, incentives, bonuses and comps equally to all customers regardless of expected profitability of such offers and/or where we are restricted in the manner in which such benefits and offers may be promoted and/or where we are restricted in the manner in or frequency with which such benefits and offers may be made available to customers.

We also cannot assure you that our methodologies and algorithms for determining how to interact, incentivize and/or encourage (or discourage, as the case may be) and reward customers are accurate or profitable now, or that they will be so in the future. If our methodologies and algorithms contain errors or omissions or otherwise incorrectly interact, incentivize, encourage, discourage or reward customers then we may suffer financial losses. In particular, customers seeking to exploit such errors or omissions may profit disproportionately from such situations and we may not detect such instances and/or may not be able to mitigate the resulting losses even if we do detect such situations.

Furthermore, despite our belief in the importance of responsible gaming and despite our efforts to ensure that our interactions, incentives, encouragements, discouragements or rewards do not encourage irresponsible or problem gaming, we cannot assure you that we will succeed in this regard. Failures in this regard may result in fines, sanctions, license conditions or forfeiture in one or more jurisdictions which in turn may result in damage to our reputation, prospects and financial results.

In some jurisdictions our key executives, certain employees or other individuals related to the business, including significant shareholders, will be subject to licensing or compliance requirements. Failure by such individuals to obtain the necessary licenses or comply with individual regulatory obligations, could cause the business to be non-compliant with its obligations, or imperil its ability to obtain or maintain licenses necessary for the conduct of the business. In some cases, the remedy to such situation may require the removal of a key executive or employee or significant shareholder and the mandatory redemption or transfer of such person’s equity securities, which could have an adverse effect on the overall market for our securities.

As part of obtaining our gaming licenses, the responsible gaming authority will generally determine suitability of certain directors, officers and employees and, in some instances, significant shareholders. The criteria used by gaming authorities to make determinations as to who requires a finding of suitability or the suitability of an applicant to conduct gaming operations varies among jurisdictions, but generally requires extensive and detailed application disclosures followed by a thorough investigation. Gaming authorities typically have broad discretion in determining whether an applicant should be found suitable to conduct operations within a given jurisdiction. If any gaming authority with jurisdiction over our business were to find an applicable officer, director, employee or significant shareholder of ours unsuitable for licensing or unsuitable to continue having a relationship with us, we would be required to sever our relationship with that person. Furthermore, such gaming authorities may require us to terminate the employment of any person who refuses to file required applications. Either result could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and prospects.

Additionally, a gaming regulatory body may refuse to issue or renew a gaming license or restrict or condition the same, based on the past or present activities of Super Group, or our current or former directors, officers, employees, shareholders or third parties with whom we have relationships, which could adversely affect our operations or financial condition. If additional gaming regulations are adopted in a jurisdiction in which we operate, such regulations could impose restrictions or costs that could have a significant adverse effect on us.

From time to time, various proposals are introduced in the legislatures of some of the jurisdictions in which we have existing or planned operations that, if enacted, could adversely affect our directors, officers, key

employees, or other aspects of the Company’s operations. To date, and where applicable and on advice, we have obtained all governmental licenses, findings of suitability, registrations, permits and approvals required (or advisable based upon the advice of local counsel) for our current operations. However, we can give no assurance that any additional licenses, permits and approvals that may be required will be given, that existing ones will be renewed or will not be revoked or that any pending license applications will be granted. In the case of renewals, these are subject to, among other things, continued satisfaction of suitability requirements of our directors, officers, key employees and shareholders. Any failure to renew or maintain our licenses or to receive new licenses when necessary would have an adverse effect on us.

Any change in existing laws and regulations, or their interpretation or enforcement, or the regulatory climate applicable to our products and offerings, could adversely impact our ability to operate some or all of our business as currently conducted or as we seek to operate in the future, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are generally subject to laws and regulations relating to sports betting and online casino gaming in the jurisdictions in which we conduct our business or in some circumstances, of those jurisdictions in which we offer or make available our services, as well as the general laws and regulations that apply to all e-commerce businesses, such as those related to privacy and personal information, tax, anti-money laundering, competition and consumer protection. These laws and regulations vary from one jurisdiction to another and future legislative, regulatory and enforcement action, court decisions or other governmental action, which may be affected by, among other things, political pressures and changes in government leadership or legislative or governmental priorities, may have an adverse impact on our operations and financial results. In particular, some jurisdictions have introduced regulations attempting to restrict or prohibit online gaming or the marketing thereof, while others have taken the position that online gaming should be licensed and regulated and have adopted or are in the process of considering legislation and regulations to enable online gaming in their jurisdictions. Additionally, some jurisdictions in which we may operate could presently be unregulated or partially regulated and therefore more susceptible to the enactment or change of laws and regulations. Some jurisdictions do not have laws that grant us rights in the data we collect. Any enactment of laws in these jurisdictions would require a change in how we conduct business in such jurisdictions.

We have foreign licenses and operate under those licenses in a number of jurisdictions. In addition, we have entered into a definitive agreement to acquire DGC, subject to certain regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. DGC’s subsidiary DGC USA has secured market access in an initial 12 regulated or expected-to-be regulated states in the U.S. Any of our licenses in foreign jurisdictions or U.S. states could be revoked, suspended or conditioned at any time. Our license applications may also be denied or conditioned. The loss or denial of a license in one jurisdiction could trigger the loss or denial of a license or affect our eligibility for such a license in another jurisdiction, and any of such losses or denials, or potential for such loss of denial, could cause us to cease offering some or all of our offerings in the impacted jurisdictions. As laws and regulations change, we may need to obtain and maintain licenses or registrations in additional jurisdictions. In addition, once licensed, we may be subject to various ongoing requirements, including supervision by the respective governmental agency of certain transfers of ownership and acquisitions.

In May 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 (“PASPA”) as unconstitutional. This decision has the effect of lifting federal restrictions on sports betting and thus allows U.S. states to determine by themselves the legality of sports betting. Since the repeal of PASPA, several states have legalized online sports betting. To the extent new real money gaming or sports betting jurisdictions are established or expanded, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in penetrating such new jurisdictions or expanding our business or customer base in line with the growth of existing jurisdictions. If we are unable to effectively develop and operate directly or indirectly within these new jurisdictions or if our competitors are able to successfully penetrate geographic jurisdictions that we cannot access or where we face other restrictions, there could be a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Our failure to obtain or maintain the necessary regulatory approvals and licenses in jurisdictions,

whether individually or collectively, could have a material adverse effect on our business. To expand into new jurisdictions, we may need to be licensed and obtain approvals of our product offerings. This is a time-consuming process that can be extremely costly. Any delays in obtaining or difficulty in maintaining regulatory approvals or licenses needed for expansion within existing jurisdictions or into new jurisdictions can negatively affect our opportunities for growth, including the growth of our customer base, or delay our ability to recognize revenue from our offerings in any such jurisdictions.

The Parliament of Canada recently passed legislation allowing provinces to regulate single-event wagering within their jurisdictions, although at this point it is unclear as to the approach which each province will take in such regard. Historically, provincially-regulated offerings were limited to parlay sports betting (which required bets to be made on multiple discrete events) offered by provincial Crown corporations. Sport-betting businesses, like our Betway brands, that operate outside of the provincially-regulated frameworks, have until now also offered single-event betting with limited competition from such Crown corporations, due to the general preference of customers to not be limited to parlay bets only. In addition, certain of our private operator competitors elected not to carry on meaningful sports-betting operations in Canada. However, as a consequence of the legislative change, the Crown corporations and many of our private operator competitors, as well as new market entrants (some of which are well-funded and involve major business interests) have announced their intentions to begin or expand sports betting operations in Canada. Independently, several Canadian provinces have been considering altering their approach to regulated online gaming (including both casino games and sports betting), to permit private operators like us to enter the provincially-regulated system. In particular, the Province of Ontario has moved ahead with its plans to permit provincially-regulated online gaming by private operators under a new regulatory framework. In Ontario, a new provincial commercial contracting party has been established and both it and the provincial regulator have created engagement and licensing mechanisms and have begun to register applicants with a ‘go-live’ date of April 4, 2022. In addition, information on standards, eligibility and other key elements have been published. Other Canadian provinces are expected to follow suit eventually. In the past, when other countries have introduced regulatory frameworks, our financial results have been impacted by, amongst other things, increased taxation and compliance costs, offset by improvements in other costs of doing business such as payment processing and product costs. In some cases the introduction of a restrictive regulatory regime has resulted in a decrease in the size of the market, whereas in others a liberal regulatory regime has led to an increase in the size of the market. Although it is possible that all of the above will expand the size of the total addressable market in Canada and/or improve the profitability of the Canadian market for us, at this point this cannot be said for certain and it is possible that parties like us that have pre-existing Ontario or Canadian operations may be at a disadvantage under these new frameworks unless we are prepared to agree to certain conditions. While we actively seek out regulated jurisdictions for the expansion of our business and therefore welcome the recently passed legislation and the proposed Ontario regulatory framework and intend to participate therein to the fullest extent possible, we cannot be certain about the future impacts of these changing circumstances on our business, operations or financial prospects. The Americas accounted for 46% of our business revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2022, and Canada is our largest market in the Americas. To the extent that competition in these key markets is increased and we are unable to maintain our related business, it may have a material adverse effect on them.

Future legislative and regulatory action, and court decisions or other governmental action, may have a material impact on our operations and financial results. Governmental authorities could view us as having violated applicable laws or regulations, despite our efforts to obtain and maintain all applicable licenses or approvals and despite, based upon advice of local counsel, our belief that we are acting lawfully. There is also a risk that civil and criminal proceedings, including class actions brought by or on behalf of prosecutors or public entities or incumbent providers, or private individuals, could be initiated against us, Internet service providers, credit card and other payment processors, advertisers and others involved in sports betting and online gaming industries. Such potential proceedings could involve substantial litigation expense, penalties, fines, seizure of assets, injunctions or other restrictions being imposed upon us or our business partners, while diverting the attention of key executives. Such proceedings could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as well as impact our reputation.

There can be no assurance that legally enforceable legislation will not be proposed and passed in jurisdictions relevant or potentially relevant to our business to prohibit, legislate or regulate various aspects of sports betting and online gaming industries and/or the marketing thereof (or that existing laws in those jurisdictions will not be interpreted negatively). Compliance with any such legislation may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, either as a result of our determination that a jurisdiction should be blocked, or because a local license or approval may be costly for us to obtain and/or such licenses or approvals may contain other commercially undesirable conditions or where our marketing strategy is prohibited or hindered.

Even where enabling legislation is passed, there can be no assurance that such legislation and accompanying regulations and interpretation thereof will be positive for our business, either at the outset or upon subsequent revision. In the past, there have been instances where business-friendly legislation and/or regulations have been enacted only for subsequent revisions or interpretations to follow with the effect of severely restricting our ability to do business profitably. Examples of this include changes to rules and regulations governing or restrictions placed on marketing, sponsorships, customer incentives, customer deposit mechanisms and limits, customer withdrawal mechanisms and limits, and customer loss and other limits that have in some instances been enacted or amended some time after initial enabling legislation and/or regulation, or subsequent increases to gaming and other taxes.

For example, with regards to the licenses that we hold for our operations in Great Britain, the Gambling Commission (“the GC”) regulates online gambling operators. Over time the GC has issued interpretations of and amendments to the regulations. Examples include the prohibition of customer reverse withdrawals, the prohibition of various casino game features, and the introduction of casino game speed of play limits that were all brought into effect on October 31, 2020. Furthermore, the Gambling Act 2005 (2005 c 19), which is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that was amended in 2014 and which governs gambling (including online gambling) in Great Britain, is currently under review, including potential restrictions on advertising and sponsorships, which may have an adverse impact on our ability to grow our business in the United Kingdom.

As another example, the Dirección General de Ordenación del Juego (“the DGOJ”) is the responsible regulator with regards to the license that we hold for our operations in Spain. Under Spanish law, the conduct of a gambling business includes explicit prescriptions such as default limits on the amounts that customers are allowed to deposit within defined periods into their wagering accounts. When we acquired our license to operate in Spain, the law allowed us to sponsor football (soccer) teams, which resulted in us sponsoring the La Liga teams Deportivo Alavés, Levante Unión Deportiva and Club Deportivo Leganes. However, with effect from the start of the 2020/21 La Liga football season, gambling trademarks or logos may no longer be incorporated into sports equipment (including football shirts) and nor may trademarks be used to identify sports facilities or incorporated into a team’s name. Accordingly it was not possible for our arrangements with the aforementioned teams to be extended. Similarly, when we acquired our license to operate in Spain, the law allowed us to advertise our products and offerings on television with relatively limited restrictions. However, with effect from September 1, 2021, television advertising for gambling and betting is restricted to the hours of 01:00 to 05:00. While we expect to be able to continue to grow our business in Spain by means of alternative marketing channels, these changes have had at least a temporary adverse impact on our ability to grow our business in Spain.

There can be no assurance that these or other jurisdictions where we hold licenses will not adopt additional or incremental changes to their laws or their regulations, or that we will foresee or otherwise be able to predict such changes or that we will be able to successfully mitigate them. Failure to successfully mitigate such changes could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Due to the nature of our business, we are subject to taxation in a number of jurisdictions and may in the future be subject to taxation in new jurisdictions, and changes in, or new interpretation of, tax laws, tax rulings or their application by tax authorities could result in additional tax liabilities and could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our tax obligations are and will be varied and include U.S. federal and state taxes as well as national, state, provincial and other taxes around the world due to the nature of our business. The tax laws that will be applicable to our business are subject to interpretation, and significant judgment will be required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes. In the course of our business, there will be many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. For example, compliance with the 2017 United States Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) may require the collection of information not regularly produced within our Company, the use of estimates in our consolidated financial statements, and the exercise of significant judgment in accounting for its provisions. As regulations and guidance evolve with respect to the TCJA, and as we gather more information and perform more analysis, our results may differ from previous estimates and may adversely affect our consolidated financial statements.

The gaming industry represents a significant source of tax revenue to the jurisdictions in which we currently and in the future will operate. Companies in the gaming industry are currently subject to significant taxes and fees in addition to normal corporate income taxes, and such taxes and fees are subject to increase at any time. From time to time, various legislators and other government officials have proposed and adopted changes in tax laws, or in the administration or interpretation of such laws, affecting the gaming industry. In addition, any worsening of economic conditions and the large number of jurisdictions with significant current or projected budget deficits could intensify the efforts of governments to raise revenues through increases in gaming taxes and/or other taxes. It is not possible to determine with certainty the likelihood of changes in tax laws or in the administration or interpretation or enforcement of such laws. Any material increase, or the adoption of additional taxes or fees, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Additionally, tax authorities may impose indirect taxes on Internet-related commercial activity based on existing statutes and regulations which, in some cases, were established prior to the advent of the Internet. Tax authorities may interpret laws originally enacted for mature industries and apply it to newer industries, such as ours. The application of such laws may be inconsistent from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Our in-jurisdiction activities may vary from period to period which could result in differences in nexus from period to period.

We are subject to periodic review and audit by domestic and foreign tax authorities. Tax authorities may disagree with certain positions that we have taken or that we will take, and any adverse outcome of such a review or audit could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Although we believe that our tax provisions, positions and estimates are reasonable and appropriate, tax authorities may disagree with certain positions we have taken. In addition, economic and political pressures to increase tax revenue in various jurisdictions may make resolving tax disputes favorably more difficult.

We operate in an industry and across jurisdictions which increase our tax risk profile, and subjects us to numerous pieces of anti-avoidance legislation which are generally complex, require detailed analysis, and which positions are often not certain due to the breadth of the anti-avoidance rules. In addition, the indirect tax treatment of the services we provide in certain countries is often unclear. As a result of these risks, we may have significant tax exposures that we have not accounted for, including in key markets, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Due to the international scope of our operations and the industry in which we operate, we are subject to tax laws and regulations, including numerous anti-avoidance legislation, which are complex and subject to varying interpretations, imposed by taxing authorities around the world. Furthermore, tax laws are dynamic and therefore subject to change as new laws are passed and new interpretations of existing laws are issued or applied. Our

existing corporate structure and intercompany arrangements have been implemented in a manner which we consider to be in compliance with current prevailing tax laws. However, the tax treatment of our structure and of the offerings we provide in certain jurisdictions is often unclear and could be subject to material adjustment. For example, the taxing authorities in the jurisdictions in which we operate may interpret tax laws and regulations differently than we do and challenge tax positions that we have taken. This may result in differences in the treatment of revenues, deductions and/or credits or otherwise expose us to additional taxes, interest and/or penalties, including in key markets, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, future changes to tax laws and regulations could increase our tax obligations in jurisdictions where we do business or are deemed to do business for tax purposes, or require us to change the manner in which we conduct certain aspects of our business.

As a growing company with expanding operations, we in the past have been party to, and we may in the future increasingly face the risk of, claims, lawsuits, and other proceedings involving competition and antitrust, anti-money laundering, OFAC, gaming, intellectual property, privacy, consumer protection, accessibility claims, securities, tax, labor and employment, commercial disputes, services and other matters, including claims by customers. Litigation to defend us against claims by third parties, or to enforce any rights that we may have against third parties, may be necessary, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources, causing an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Any litigation to which we are a party may result in an onerous or unfavorable judgment that may not be reversed upon appeal, or in payments of substantial monetary damages or fines, the posting of bonds requiring significant collateral, letters of credit or similar instruments, or we may decide to settle lawsuits on similarly unfavorable terms. These proceedings could also result in reputational harm, criminal sanctions, consent decrees or orders preventing us from offering certain products or requiring a change in our business practices in costly ways or requiring development of non-infringing or otherwise altered products or technologies. Litigation and other claims and regulatory proceedings against us could result in unexpected disciplinary actions, expenses and liabilities, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Intellectual Property and Data Privacy Risks

We rely on trademark, copyright, trade secret, and domain-name-protection laws to protect our rights in intellectual property. However, third parties may knowingly or unknowingly infringe our rights in intellectual property, third parties may challenge intellectual property rights held by us, and pending and future trademark and patent applications may not be approved or courts/tribunals may not uphold our objections or claims. In addition, effective intellectual property protection may not be available in every country in which we operate or intend to operate our business. In any of these cases, we may be required to expend significant time and expense to prevent infringement or to enforce our rights. There can be no assurance that others will not offer products or services that are substantially similar to ours and compete with our business.

Circumstances outside our control could pose a threat to our intellectual property rights. Also, the efforts we have taken to protect our intellectual property rights may not be sufficient or effective. For example, it may not always have been possible or commercially desirable to obtain registered protection for our products, software, databases or other technology and, in such situations, we rely on laws governing protection of unregistered

intellectual property rights, confidentiality and/or contractual exclusivity of and to underlying data and technology to prevent unauthorized use by third parties. As such, if we are unable to protect our proprietary offerings via relevant laws or contractual exclusivity, technology and features, competitors may copy them. In particular, the EU database right protection we enjoy in the EU does not apply outside the EU and, as such, we cannot be certain that we can rely on existing statutes, regulations and/or case law (including in the U.S.) to protect our unregistered intellectual property in the future or prevent third parties from making unauthorized uses of our data and other unregistered intellectual property. The position regarding the U.K. and the EU database right following Brexit also remains unclear. The loss of EU database right protection could adversely affect our business. Any significant impairment of our intellectual property rights could harm our business or our ability to compete. If we are unable to protect our proprietary offerings and features, competitors may copy them. Also, protecting our intellectual property rights is costly and time-consuming. Any unauthorized use of our intellectual property or disclosure of our confidential information or trade secrets could make it more expensive to do business, thereby harming our operating results. Furthermore, if we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights or prevent unauthorized use or appropriation by third parties, the value of our brand and other intangible assets may be diminished, and competitors may be able to more effectively mimic our offerings and service. Any of these events could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We are, and will increasingly become as we seek to expand our business, subject to numerous domestic and foreign laws, regulations, rules and standards, as well as associated industry standards, policies and contractual or other obligations, relating to the collection, use, storage, safeguarding, retention, security, destruction, disclosure, transfer, and/or other processing of personal data (collectively, “Processing”) in the jurisdictions in which we operate (collectively, “Data Protection Requirements”). These Data Protection Requirements often vary significantly by jurisdiction. While we have taken steps to comply with Data Protection Requirements, we cannot assure you that our efforts to achieve and remain in compliance have been and/or will continue to be, fully successful. If we fail, or are perceived to have failed, to address or comply with any such Data Protection Requirements, this could result in enforcement actions against us that could include investigations, fines, penalties, audits and inspections, additional reporting requirements and/or oversight, temporary or permanent bans on all or some Processing of personal data or orders to destroy or not use personal data. Further, individuals or other relevant stakeholders could bring a variety of claims against us for our actual or perceived failure to comply with the Data Protection Requirements. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, or financial condition, and could lead to a loss of actual or prospective customers, collaborators or partners; result in an inability to Process personal data or to operate in certain jurisdictions; limit our ability to develop or commercialize current or prospective offerings or services; or require us to revise or restructure our operations.

For example, the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) applies to any Processing operations carried out in the context of the activities of an establishment in the EEA, as well as to any other Processing operations relating to the offering of goods or services to individuals in the EEA and/or the monitoring of individuals’ behavior in the EEA. Also, notwithstanding the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the EU, by operation of the so called ‘UK GDPR’ (i.e., the GDPR as it continues to form part of the law of the United Kingdom by virtue of section 3 of the EU (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and as subsequently amended) (“UK GDPR”) the GDPR continues to apply in substantially equivalent form to Processing operations carried out in the context of the activities of an establishment in the United Kingdom and any other Processing relating to the offering of goods or services to individuals in the United Kingdom and/or monitoring of individuals’ behavior in the United Kingdom. Therefore, reference to the GDPR herein also refers to the UK GDPR in the context of the

United Kingdom, unless the context requires otherwise. Furthermore, the GDPR provides that EEA Member States may introduce specific, supplementary requirements related to the Processing of “special categories of personal data”; as well as personal data related to criminal offences or convictions. In the United Kingdom, the UK Data Protection Act 2018 complements the UK GDPR in this regard. This fact may lead to greater divergence on the law that applies to the Processing of such personal data across the EEA and/or United Kingdom, which may increase our costs and overall compliance risk.

The GDPR and such supplementary requirements impose stringent data privacy and security requirements. In particular, the GDPR imposes several requirements relating to ensuring there is a lawful basis for Processing personal data, extends the rights of individuals to whom the personal data relates, materially expands the definition of what is expressly noted to constitute personal data, requires additional disclosures about how personal data is to be used, imposes limitations on retention of personal data, imposes strict rules on the transfer of personal data out of the EEA/UK to most third countries, creates mandatory data breach notification requirements in certain circumstances and establishes onerous new obligations on service providers, or processors, who Process personal data simply on behalf of others. It also significantly increased penalties for noncompliance.

Additionally, following the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union on January 31, 2020 and end of the post-Brexit transition period on December 31, 2020, as noted above, the United Kingdom has introduced the UK GDPR which currently makes the privacy regimes of the EEA and United Kingdom similar, though it is possible that either the European Union, and consequently those further states that make up the remainder of the EEA, or United Kingdom could elect to change their approach and create differences in legal requirements and regulation in this area. On June 28, 2021, the European Commission issued an adequacy decision under the GDPR which allows transfers (other than those carried out for the purposes of United Kingdom immigration control) of personal data from the EEA to the United Kingdom to continue without restriction for a period of four years ending June 27, 2025. After that period, the adequacy decision may be renewed, however, only if the United Kingdom continues to ensure an adequate level of data protection. During these four years, the European Commission will continue to monitor the legal situation in the United Kingdom and could intervene at any point if the United Kingdom deviates from the level of data protection in place at the time of issuance of the adequacy decision. If the adequacy decision is withdrawn or not renewed, transfers of personal data from the EEA to the United Kingdom will require a valid ‘transfer mechanism’ and we may be required to implement new processes and put new agreements in place (such as the then-current form of the European Commission-issued Standard Contractual Clauses), to enable transfers of personal data from the EEA to the United Kingdom to continue.

We are also subject to the Data Protection (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Law, 2017 (as amended) (the “Guernsey DP Law”), which largely follows GDPR and requires us to control and process personal data only for proper purposes and in accordance with statutory data protection principles, and the Data Protection Law of Colombia, which requires the consent of the customer to their data being transmitted outside of Colombia.

Because our products and services rely on the movement of data across national boundaries, global privacy and data security concerns could result in additional costs and liabilities to us or inhibit sales of our products and/ or services globally. In particular, European data protection laws, such as the GDPR, generally prohibit the transfer of personal data from the EEA, United Kingdom and Switzerland to the United States, and most other countries, known as ‘third countries’, in respect of which the European Commission or other relevant regulatory body has not issued a so-called ‘adequacy decision’, unless the parties to the transfer have implemented specific safeguards to protect the transferred personal data. One of the primary safeguards used for transfers of personal data to the United States was the E.U.-U.S. Privacy Shield framework administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce. On July 16, 2020, the Court of Justice of the European Union, or CJEU, in a decision known as ‘Schrems II’, invalidated the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, under which personal data could be transferred from the EEA and the United Kingdom to U.S. entities that had self-certified under the Privacy Shield. On September 8, 2020, the UK government similarly confirmed that the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield could not be used as a mechanism

for lawful personal data transfers from the United Kingdom to the United States under the UK GDPR and the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner announced that the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield regime was also inadequate for the purposes of personal data transfers from Switzerland to the U.S. entities who had self-certified under the Swiss Privacy Shield. The CJEU Schrems II decision referenced above also cast doubt on the ability to use one of the primary alternatives to the E.U.-U.S. Privacy Shield and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield, namely, the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, to lawfully transfer personal data to the United States and most other third countries. On June 4, 2021, the European Commission published new versions of the Standard Contractual Clauses. These Standard Contractual Clauses have been required for new transfers of personal data from the EEA to third countries from September 27, 2021, and all existing standard contractual clauses arrangements must be migrated to the revised Standard Contractual Clauses December 27, 2022. The revised Standard Contractual Clauses cannot be used for transfers to non-EEA entities whose processing is already subject to the GDPR; however, no equivalent standard data protection clauses have been issued and approved by the European Commission and, therefore, current market practice is largely to use the Standard Contractual Clauses notwithstanding this issue. In respect of transfers under the UK GDPR to ‘inadequate’ third countries, the UK Government has separately issued both a UK International Data Transfer Agreement and a UK International Data Transfer Addendum to the Standard Contractual Clauses, together, UK Transfer Tools, which may be used from 21 March 2022; must be used for new transfers after 21 September 2022; and must be used for all existing and new transfers after 21 March 2024. The implementation of the new Standard Contractual Clauses and UK Transfer Tools has necessitated amendments to our data transfer arrangements with partners, sub-processors and vendors. Use of both the existing and the new Standard Contractual Clauses and UK Transfer Tools must, following the Schrems II decision, now be assessed on a case-by-case basis taking into account the legal regime applicable in the destination country, in particular applicable surveillance laws and rights of individuals, and additional supplementary technical, organizational and/or contractual measures and/or contractual provisions may need to be put in place; however, the nature of these additional measures is currently uncertain. At present, there are few if any viable alternatives to the Privacy Shield and the Standard Contractual Clauses and UK Transfer Tools and there remains some uncertainty with respect to the nature and efficacy of such supplementary measures in ensuring an adequate level of protection of personal data. Having reached agreement in principle on March 25, 2022, the U.S. and EU are in the process of negotiating a Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework as an alternative transfer mechanism, which would allow personal data to flow freely between the EU and participating U.S. companies; however, any such framework is still to be agreed and may be subject to challenge if implemented. It is expected that a new EU-US data transfer framework will not be ready before Spring 2023. As such, our transfers of personal data to third countries may not comply with European data protection laws and may increase our exposure to the GDPR’s heightened sanctions for violations of its cross-border data transfer restrictions, including fines of up to 4% of annual global revenue or €20,000,000/£17,500,000, whichever is higher, and injunctions against transfers. As supervisory authorities issue further guidance on personal data export mechanisms, including circumstances where the Standard Contractual Clauses can and cannot be used, and/or start taking enforcement action, we could suffer additional costs, complaints and/or regulatory investigations or fines, and/or if we are otherwise unable to transfer personal data between and among countries and regions in which we operate and/or engage providers and/or otherwise transfer personal data, it could affect the manner in which we receive and/or provide services, the geographical location or segregation of our relevant systems and operations, and could adversely affect our financial results and generally increase compliance risk. Additionally, other countries outside of Europe have enacted or are considering enacting similar cross-border data transfer restrictions and laws requiring local data residency, which could increase the cost and complexity of operating our business.

In recent years, U.S. and European lawmakers and regulators have expressed concern over electronic marketing and the use of third-party cookies, web beacons and similar technology for online behavioral advertising. Online advertising technology and the use of personal data for “real time bidding” activities present significant privacy compliance challenges; accordingly, this area has been and is likely to remain the focus of numerous reviews, investigations and enforcement actions by lawmakers and regulators. We are likely to be required to expend further capital and other resources to address the outcomes of such reviews, investigations and enforcement actions, and to ensure compliance with the changing practices, laws, regulations and industry requirements relating to online

advertising technology. While we have numerous mitigation controls in place, advertisements produced by us may be erroneously served on websites that are not suitable for the advertising content of gambling (e.g., websites predominantly aimed at children). There is also a risk that gambling advertisements are viewed by people who do not want to view them, or who have taken measures not to receive them (for example, individuals on “self-exclusion” lists). In each case this may have adverse legal and reputational effects on our business.

In the EU, rules relating to electronic direct marketing are currently set out in the ePrivacy Directive, which is likely to be replaced by a new ePrivacy Regulation. While no official time frame has been given for the ePrivacy Regulation, there will be a transition period after the ePrivacy Regulation is agreed for compliance, and commentators consider it unlikely to come into force before 2024. The ePrivacy Regulation will be directly implemented into the laws of each of the EU Member States, without the need for further enactment. When implemented, the ePrivacy Regulation is expected to alter rules on third-party cookies, web beacons and similar technology for online behavioral advertising and to impose stricter requirements on companies using these tools. Regulation of cookies and web beacons may lead to broader restrictions on our online activities, including efforts to understand followers’ Internet usage and promote ourselves to them. The current draft of the ePrivacy Regulation significantly increases fining powers to the same levels as the GDPR. Given the delay in finalizing the ePrivacy Regulation, certain regulators have issued guidance (including ICO and French data protection regulators) on the requirement to seek strict opt-in, unbundled consent to use all nonessential cookies and similar technologies and the requirement to increase the standard of transparency relating to use of cookies and similar technologies. Our cookie consent management functionality and cookies notices may not meet the standards outlined in such guidance.

In the United States, the federal government, including Congress, the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Commerce, has announced that it is reviewing the need for greater regulation for the collection of information concerning consumer behavior on the internet, including regulation aimed at restricting certain targeted advertising practices. Furthermore, the Federal Trade Commission and many state attorneys general continue to enforce federal and state consumer protection laws against companies for online collection, use, dissemination, and security practices that appear to be unfair or deceptive. Numerous states have enacted or are in the process of enacting state level data privacy laws and regulations governing the collection, use, and processing of state residents’ personal data.

For example, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) took effect on January 1, 2020. The CCPA establishes a new privacy framework for covered businesses such as ours and may require us to modify our data processing practices and policies and incur compliance related costs and expenses. The CCPA provides new and enhanced data privacy rights to California residents, such as affording consumers the right to access and delete their information and to opt out of certain sharing and sales of personal information. The law also prohibits covered businesses from discriminating against consumers (for example, charging more for services) for exercising any of their CCPA rights. The CCPA imposes severe statutory damages for certain violations of the law as well as a private right of action for certain data breaches that result in the loss of personal information. This private right of action is expected to increase the likelihood of, and risks associated with, data breach litigation. It remains unclear how various provisions of the CCPA will be interpreted and enforced. In November 2020, California voters passed the California Privacy Rights and Enforcement Act of 2020 (“CPRA”). The CPRA further expands the CCPA with additional data privacy compliance requirements that may impact our business, and establishes a regulatory agency dedicated to enforcing those requirements. The Stop Hacks and Improve Electronic Data Security Act, otherwise known as the SHIELD Act, is a New York State bill, the data protection portions of which became effective on March 23, 2020. The SHIELD Act requires companies to adopt reasonable safeguards to protect the security, confidentiality, and integrity of private information. A company should implement a data security program containing specific measures, including risk assessments, employee training, vendor contracts, and timely data disposal. Laws like the SHIELD Act, the CPRA and the CCPA may lead other states to pass comparable legislation, with potentially greater penalties, and more rigorous compliance requirements relevant to our business. For example, Virginia has enacted the Consumer Data Protection Act and Colorado has enacted the Colorado Privacy Act, each of which may impose obligations similar to or more stringent than those we may face under other data protection laws. Compliance with any newly enacted privacy

and data security laws or regulations may be challenging and cost and time-intensive, and we may be required to put in place additional mechanisms to comply with applicable legal requirements.

Although we have implemented certain policies and procedures, and continue to review and improve such policies and procedures, that are designed to ensure compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, if our privacy or data security measures fail, or are perceived to have failed, to comply with applicable current or future laws and regulations, we may be subject to fines, litigation, regulatory investigations and penalties (including potential suspension or loss of licensure), enforcement notices requiring us to change the way we use personal data or our marketing practices or other liabilities such as compensation claims by individuals affected by a personal data breach, as well as negative publicity and a potential loss of business. Fines are significant in some countries (e.g., the GDPR introduced fines of up to countries (e.g., the GDPR introduced fines of up to €20,000,000/£17,500,000 or up to 4% of the total worldwide annual turnover of the preceding financial year (whichever is higher)) as well as litigation, compensation claims by affected individuals (including class action type litigation where individuals suffer harm), regulatory investigations and enforcement notices requiring us to change the way we use personal data.

Our processing of cardholder data is subject, in addition to data protection and privacy laws, to strict industry standards and security procedures. Compliance with the requirements to process cardholder data can be onerous and may require the implementation of new procedures, policies and security measures or the amendment of existing ones which may require material expenditures and harm our financial condition and results of operations. Any actual or perceived failure to comply may result in the inability to process payments, monetary penalties and reputational damages which may require material expenditures and harm our financial condition and results of operations.

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (“PCI DSS”) applies to the processing of cardholder data. PCI DSS consists of a set of policies and procedures intended to enhance the security of cardholder data during card transactions. PCI DSS was implemented by the five largest credit card brands — Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, JCB. Compliance in this regard is important as Super Group does process cardholder data. Where there is actual or perceived non-compliance with PCI DSS, this may result in Super Group’s inability to process payments, monetary penalties and reputational damage. As part of PCI DSS compliance Super Group is required to undertake internal and external network vulnerability scans at least quarterly and after any significant change in the network and to carry out a formal risk assessment process at least annually and upon significant changes to the environment that identifies critical assets, threats, and vulnerabilities. Where such scans reveal any lack of compliance, the Company will take appropriate steps to ensure compliance in accordance with the relevant and applicable policies and procedures.

We will rely on products, technologies and intellectual property that we license from third parties, for use in our offerings. A substantial portion of our offerings and services use intellectual property licensed from third parties. The future success of our business may depend, in part, on our ability to obtain, retain and/or expand licenses for popular technologies, data feeds, software platforms and games in a competitive market. We cannot assure that these third-party licenses, or support for such licensed products and technologies, will continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. In the event that we cannot renew and/or expand existing licenses, we may be required to discontinue or limit our use of the products that include or incorporate the licensed intellectual property. We use data in respect of sporting feeds which we believe to be freely available in the public domain and/or which are made available to us at no charge. In the future, we may be forced to pay for usage of such data, including retrospectively, and third parties may assert rights to such data and/or such third parties may attempt to charge us for the right to use such data. In the event that this does happen, we cannot be

certain that appropriate licenses will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. In the event that we cannot agree on appropriate licenses, we may be required to discontinue or limit our use of the relevant data and, to the extent that certain of our offerings or products or components thereof are entirely reliant on such data, we may therefore be unable to continue to provide certain offerings or products or components thereof, in which case our business, our results of operations, our financial results and our prospects may suffer.

Some of our license agreements contain minimum guaranteed royalty payments to the third party. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue to offset the minimum guaranteed royalty payments, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Certain of our license agreements grant the licensor rights to audit our use of their intellectual property as well as the financial calculations of royalty payments under these agreements. Disputes with licensors over uses or terms could result in the payment of additional royalties or penalties by us, cancellation or non-renewal of the underlying license or litigation.

The regulatory review process and licensing requirements also may preclude us from using technologies owned or developed by third parties if those parties are unwilling to subject themselves to regulatory review or do not meet regulatory requirements. Some gaming authorities require gaming manufacturers to obtain approval, licensure or other requirements before engaging in certain transactions, such as acquisitions, mergers, reorganizations, financings, stock offerings and share repurchases. Obtaining such approvals can be costly and time consuming, and we cannot assure that such approvals will be granted or that the approval process will not result in delays or disruptions to our strategic objectives.

We rely on information technology and other systems and platforms, and any failures, errors, defects or disruptions in our systems or platforms could diminish our brand and reputation, subject us to liability, disrupt our business, affect our ability to scale our technical infrastructure and adversely affect our operating results and growth prospects. Our games and other software applications and systems, and the third-party platforms upon which they are made available could contain undetected errors.

Our technology infrastructure is critical to the performance of our platform and offerings and to customer satisfaction. We devote significant resources to network and data security to protect our systems and data. However, our systems may not be adequately designed with the necessary reliability and redundancy to avoid performance delays or outages that could be harmful to our business. We cannot assure you that the measures we take to prevent or hinder cyber-attacks and protect our systems, data and customer information and to prevent outages, data or information loss, fraud and to prevent or detect security breaches, including a disaster recovery strategy for server and equipment failure and back-office systems and the use of third parties for certain cybersecurity services, will provide absolute security. We currently use and may in the future make additional use of “cloud” computing services which are a form of computing infrastructure provided by third parties such as Amazon and Microsoft and as such are substantially not within our control and are subject to outages that we would not be able to prevent and would have significant difficulty mitigating should they occur. We have experienced, and we may in the future experience, website disruptions, outages and other performance problems due to a variety of factors, including infrastructure changes, human or software errors and capacity constraints. Such disruptions have not had a material impact on us; however, future disruptions from unauthorized access to, fraudulent manipulation of, or tampering with our computer systems and technological infrastructure, or those of third parties, could result in a wide range of negative outcomes, each of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Additionally, our products may contain errors, bugs, flaws or corrupted data, and these defects may only become apparent after their launch and could result in a vulnerability that could compromise the security of our systems. If a particular product offering is unavailable when customers attempt to access it or navigation through our platforms is slower than they expect, customers may be unable to use our product offerings as desired and may be less likely to return to our platforms as often, if at all. Furthermore, programming errors, defects and data corruption could disrupt our operations, adversely affect the experience of our customers, harm our reputation,

cause our customers to stop utilizing our platforms, divert our resources and delay market acceptance of our offerings, any of which could result in legal liability to us or harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

If our customer base and engagement continue to grow, and the amount and types of offerings continue to grow and evolve, we will need an increasing amount of technical infrastructure, including network capacity and computing power, to continue to satisfy our customers’ needs. Such infrastructure expansion may be complex, and unanticipated delays in completing these projects or availability of components may lead to increased project costs, operational inefficiencies, or interruptions in the delivery or degradation of the quality of our offerings. In addition, there may be issues related to this infrastructure that are not identified during the testing phases of design and implementation, which may only become evident after we have started to fully use the underlying equipment or software, that could further degrade the customer experience or increase our costs. As such, we could fail to continue to effectively scale and grow our technical infrastructure to accommodate increased demands. In addition, our business may be subject to interruptions, delays or failures resulting from adverse weather conditions, climate change, climate change-related events, other natural disasters, power loss, terrorism, cyber-attacks, public health emergencies (such as the coronavirus) or other catastrophic events.

If we do not continuously improve upon our systems and products and offerings then notwithstanding that the performance thereof might remain constant it might nonetheless also deteriorate when viewed relative to our competitors. This in turn might harm our reputation with our customers or reduce their enjoyment of our products and in turn harm our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We believe that if our customers have a negative experience with our offerings, or if our brand or reputation is negatively affected, customers may be less inclined to continue or resume utilizing our products or recommend our platform to other potential customers. As such, a failure or significant interruption in our service could harm our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Despite our security measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by unauthorized third parties, hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Any such breach could compromise our networks and the information or data stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost, deleted, encrypted or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings (including class action), liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, and regulatory penalties, disruption of our operations and the services we provide to customers, damage to our reputation, and a loss of confidence in our products and offerings, which could adversely affect our business.

The secure maintenance and transmission of customer information is a critical element of our operations. Our information technology and other systems that maintain and transmit customer information, or those of service providers, business partners or employee information may be compromised by a malicious third-party penetration of our network security, or that of a third-party service provider or business partner, or impacted by intentional or unintentional actions or inactions by our employees, or those of a third-party service provider or business partner. As a result, our customers’ information may be lost, disclosed, accessed or taken without consent. If any such access, disclosure or other loss of information should occur, then we would likely suffer attempts by the recipients of such data to divert our customers away from our products and would also suffer a substantial loss of trust and reputation with our customers and would likely lose a significant portion of their business as a result. We have experienced attempted cyber-attacks, attempts to breach our systems and other similar attempts in the past. For example, we have been and expect that we will continue to be subject to attempts to gain unauthorized access to or through our information systems, whether by our employees or third parties, including cyber-attacks by computer programmers and hackers who may develop and deploy viruses, worms or other malicious software programs. To date these attacks have not had a material impact on our operations or financial results, but we cannot provide assurance that they will not have a material impact in the future.

We rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from third parties in an effort to securely transmit confidential and sensitive information, including credit card numbers. Advances in computer capabilities, new technological discoveries or other developments may result in the whole or partial failure of this technology to protect transaction data or other confidential and sensitive information from being breached or compromised. In addition, websites and/or externally exposed administrative systems are often attacked through compromised credentials, including those obtained through phishing and credential stuffing. Our security measures, and those of our third-party service providers, may not detect or prevent all attempts to breach our systems, denial-of-service attacks, viruses, malicious software, break-ins, phishing attacks, social engineering, security breaches or other attacks and similar disruptions that may jeopardize the security of information stored in or transmitted by our websites, networks and systems or that we or such third parties otherwise maintain, including payment card systems, which may subject us to fines or higher transaction fees or limit or terminate our access to certain payment methods. We and such third parties may not anticipate or prevent all types of attacks until after they have already been launched. Further, techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to or sabotage systems change frequently and may not be known until launched against us or our third-party service providers.

In addition, security breaches can also occur as a result of non-technical issues, including intentional or inadvertent breaches by our employees or by third parties. These risks may increase over time as the complexity and number of technical systems and applications we use also increases. Breaches of our security measures or those of our third-party service providers or cybersecurity incidents could result in unauthorized access to our sites, networks and systems; unauthorized access to and misappropriation of customer information, including customers’ personally identifiable information, or other confidential or proprietary information of ourselves or third parties; viruses, worms, spyware or other malware being served from our sites, networks or systems; deletion or modification of content or the display of unauthorized content on our sites; interruption, disruption or malfunction of operations; costs relating to breach remediation, deployment of additional personnel and protection technologies, response to governmental investigations and media inquiries and coverage; engagement of third-party experts and consultants; litigation, regulatory action and other potential liabilities. In the past, we have experienced social engineering, phishing, malware and similar attacks and threats of denial-of-service attacks, none of which to date has been material to our business; however, such attacks could in the future have a material adverse effect on our operations. If any of these breaches of security should occur and be material, our reputation and brand could be damaged, our business may suffer, we could be required to expend significant capital and other resources to alleviate problems caused by such breaches, and we could be exposed to a risk of loss, litigation or regulatory action and possible liability. We cannot guarantee that recovery protocols and backup systems will be sufficient to prevent data loss. Actual or anticipated attacks may cause us to incur increasing costs, including costs to deploy additional personnel and protection technologies, train employees and engage third-party experts and consultants.

In addition, any party who is able to illicitly obtain a customer’s password could access the customer’s transaction data or personal information, resulting in the perception that our systems are insecure. Any compromise or breach of our security measures, or those of our third-party service providers, could violate applicable privacy, data protection, data security, network and information systems security and other laws and cause significant legal and financial exposure, adverse publicity and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. We continue to devote significant resources to protect against security breaches or we may need to in the future to address problems caused by breaches, including notifying affected subscribers and responding to any resulting litigation, which in turn, diverts resources from the growth and expansion of our business.

Some of our software systems contain third-party open source software components, and failure to comply with the terms of the underlying open source software licenses could restrict our ability to provide our offerings.

Some open source licenses contain requirements that we make available source code for modifications or derivative works we create based upon the type of open source software we use, or grant other licenses to our

intellectual property. If we combine our proprietary software with open source software in a certain manner, we could, under certain open source licenses, be required to release the source code of our proprietary software to the public. This would allow our competitors to create similar offerings with lower development effort and time and ultimately could result in a loss of our competitive advantages. Alternatively, to avoid the public release of the affected portions of our source code, we could be required to expend substantial time and resources to re-engineer some or all of our software.

Although we monitor our use of open source software to avoid subjecting our platform and our back-office and administrative and other systems to conditions we do not intend, the terms of many open source licenses have not been interpreted by U.S. or foreign courts, and there is a risk that these licenses could be construed in a way that could impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to provide or distribute our platform. From time to time, there have been claims challenging the ownership of open source software against companies that incorporate open source software into their solutions. As a result, we could be subject to lawsuits by parties claiming ownership of what we believe to be open source software. Moreover, we cannot assure you that our processes for controlling our use of open source software in our software systems will be effective. If we are held to have breached or failed to fully comply with all the terms and conditions of an open source software license, we could face infringement or other liability, or be required to seek costly licenses from third parties to continue providing our offerings on terms that are not economically feasible, to re-engineer our systems, to discontinue or delay the provision of our offerings if re-engineering could not be accomplished on a timely basis or to make generally available, in source code form, our proprietary code, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

If Internet and other technology-based service providers experience service interruptions, our ability to conduct our business may be impaired and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

A substantial portion of our network infrastructure is provided by third parties, including Internet service providers and other technology-based service providers. We require technology-based service providers to implement cyber-attack-resilient systems and processes. However, if Internet service providers experience service interruptions, including because of cyber-attacks, or due to an event causing an unusually high volume of Internet use (such as a pandemic or public health emergency), communications over the Internet may be interrupted and impair our ability to conduct our business. Internet service providers and other technology-based service providers may in the future roll out upgraded or new mobile or other telecommunications services, such as 5G or 6G services, which may not be successful and thus may impact the ability of our customers to access our offerings in a timely fashion or at all. In addition, our ability to process e-commerce transactions depends on bank processing and credit card systems. To prepare for system problems, we continuously seek to strengthen and enhance our current facilities and the capabilities of our system infrastructure and support. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that the Internet infrastructure or our own network systems will continue to be able to meet the demand placed on us by the continued growth of the Internet, the overall online gaming industry and our customers. Any difficulties these providers face, including the potential of certain network traffic receiving priority over other traffic (i.e., lack of net neutrality), may adversely affect our business, and we exercise little control over these providers, which increases our vulnerability to problems with the services they provide. Any system failure as a result of reliance on third parties, such as network, software or hardware failure, including as a result of cyber-attacks, which causes a loss of our customers’ property or personal information or a delay or interruption in our online services and products and e-commerce services, including our ability to handle existing or increased traffic, could result in a loss of anticipated revenue, interruptions to our offerings, cause us to incur significant legal, remediation and notification costs, degrade the customer experience and cause customers to lose confidence in our offerings, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Ordinary Shares

The market price of our Ordinary Shares may fluctuate substantially.

Fluctuations in the price of our Ordinary Shares could contribute to the loss of all or part of your investment. Prior to the Business Combination, there was not a public market for our Ordinary Shares. Accordingly, the valuation ascribed to us in the Business Combination is not necessarily indicative of the price that has prevailed or will prevail in the trading market. If an active market for our securities develops and continues, the trading price of our Ordinary Shares could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in our Ordinary Shares, and our Ordinary Shares may trade at prices significantly below the price you paid for them. In such circumstances, the trading price of our Ordinary Shares may not recover and may experience a further decline.

Factors affecting the trading price of our Ordinary Shares may include:

•

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to us;

•

changes in the market’s expectations about our operating results;

•

success of competitors;

•

our operating results failing to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period;

•

changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning us or the industries in which we operate in general;

•

operating and share price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us;

•

our ability to market new and enhanced products on a timely basis;

•

changes in laws and regulations affecting our business;

•

commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving us;

•

changes in our capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;

•

the volume of our Ordinary Shares available for public sale;

•

any major change in our board or management;

•

sales of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares by our directors, executive officers or significant shareholders or the perception that such sales could occur; and

•

general economic and political conditions such as recessions, inflation, interest rates, fuel prices, international currency fluctuations and acts of war or terrorism.

Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our Ordinary Shares irrespective of our operating performance. The stock market in general, and NYSE, have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of our Ordinary Shares, may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for the stocks of other companies that investors perceive to be similar to us could depress our share price, regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of our Ordinary Shares also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

The coverage of our business or our securities by securities or industry analysts or the absence thereof could adversely affect our securities and trading volume.

The trading market for our securities is influenced in part by the research and other reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business or industry from time to time. We do not control these analysts nor the content and opinions included in their reports. As a former shell company, we may be slow to attract equity research coverage, and the analysts who publish information about our securities will have had relatively little experience with our company, which could affect their ability to accurately forecast our results and make it more likely that we fail to meet their estimates. If no or few analysts commence equity research coverage of us, the trading price and volume of our securities would likely be negatively impacted. If analysts do cover us and one or more of them downgrade our securities, or if they issue other unfavorable commentary about us or our industry or inaccurate research, our share price would likely decline. Furthermore, if one or more of these analysts cease coverage or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets. Any of the foregoing would likely cause our share price and trading volume to decline.

We are a limited company incorporated under the laws of the Island of Guernsey. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon our directors or officers, or enforce judgments obtained in the United States courts against our directors or officers.

We have been advised that there is doubt as to the enforceability in Guernsey of judgments of the United States courts of civil liabilities predicated solely upon the laws of the United States, including the federal securities laws.

As a result of all of the above, public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a corporation incorporated in the United States.

It may be difficult to enforce a U.S. judgment against us or our directors and officers outside the United States, or to assert U.S. securities law claims outside of the United States.

A majority of our directors and executive officers are not residents of the United States, and the majority of our assets and the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for investors to effect service of process upon us within the United States or other jurisdictions, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States. Additionally, it may be difficult to assert U.S. securities law claims in actions originally instituted outside of the United States. Foreign courts may refuse to hear a U.S. securities law claim, because foreign courts may not be the most appropriate forum in which to bring such a claim. Even if a foreign court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that the law of the jurisdiction in which the foreign court resides, and not U.S. law, is applicable to the claim. Further, if U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact, which can be a time-consuming and costly process, and certain matters of procedure would still be governed by the law of the jurisdiction in which the foreign court resides. See “Description of Securities — Enforceability of Civil Liabilities.”

As a company incorporated in the Island of Guernsey, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from NYSE corporate governance listing standards; these practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with NYSE corporate governance listing standards.

We are a company incorporated in the Island of Guernsey, and our Ordinary Shares and public warrants are listed on the NYSE. NYSE market rules permit a foreign private issuer like us to follow the corporate governance

practices of its home country. Certain corporate governance practices in the Island of Guernsey, which is our home country, may differ significantly from NYSE corporate governance listing standards.

Among others, we are not required to:

•

have a majority of the members of our board of directors who are independent;

•

hold regular meetings of our non-executive directors without the executive directors;

•

have a nominating and/or corporate governance committee composed of entirely independent directors;

•

have a compensation committee composed of entirely independent directors;

•

adopt a code of business conduct and ethics, which we intend to do; or

•

seek shareholder approval for the implementation of certain equity compensation plans and issuances of securities.

Provisions in our governing documents may inhibit a takeover of us, which could limit the price investors might be willing to pay in the future for our Ordinary Shares and could entrench management.

Our governing documents contain provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals that shareholders may consider to be in their best interests. we may issue additional shares without shareholder approval and such additional shares could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The ability for us to issue additional shares could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise that could involve the payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for our Ordinary Shares.

If a U.S. Holder is treated as owning at least 10% of our Ordinary Shares (by value or voting power), such U.S. Holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.

Each “Ten Percent Shareholder” (as defined below) in a non-U.S. corporation that is classified as a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes (“CFC”), generally is required to include in income for U.S. federal tax purposes such Ten Percent Shareholder’s pro rata share of the CFC’s “Subpart F income,” “global intangible low-taxed income,” and “investment of earnings in U.S. property,” (in each case, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) even if the CFC has made no distributions to its shareholders. Subpart F income generally includes dividends, interest, rents, royalties, gains from the sale of securities and income from certain transactions with related parties. In addition, a Ten Percent Shareholder that realizes gain from the sale or exchange of shares in a CFC may be required to classify a portion of such gain as dividend income rather than capital gain. An individual that is a Ten Percent Shareholder with respect to a CFC generally would not be allowed certain tax deductions or foreign tax credits that would be allowed to a Ten Percent Shareholder that is a U.S. corporation. Failure to comply with these reporting obligations may subject a Ten Percent Shareholder to significant monetary penalties and may prevent the statute of limitations with respect to such Ten Percent Shareholder’s U.S. federal income tax return for the year for which reporting was due from starting.

A non-U.S. corporation generally will be classified as a CFC for U.S. federal income tax purposes if Ten Percent Shareholders own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of either the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such corporation entitled to vote or of the total value of the stock of such corporation. A “Ten Percent Shareholder” is a United States person (as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) who owns or is considered to own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such corporation entitled to vote or 10% or more of the total value of all classes of stock of such corporation.

The determination of CFC status is complex and includes attribution rules, the application of which is not entirely certain. Because we may form or acquire one or more U.S. subsidiaries (including DGC USA), the application of those attribution rules may cause our non-U.S. subsidiaries to be treated as CFCs. We cannot provide any assurances that we will assist holders of our Ordinary Shares in determining whether we or any non-U.S. subsidiaries are or will be treated as a CFC or whether any holder of our Ordinary Shares is treated as a Ten Percent Shareholder with respect to any such CFC or furnish to any Ten Percent Shareholders information that may be necessary to comply with the aforementioned reporting and tax paying obligations.

Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisors with respect to the potential adverse U.S. tax consequences of becoming a Ten Percent Shareholder in a CFC. If we are classified as both a CFC and a PFIC (as defined below), we generally will not be treated as a PFIC with respect to those U.S. Holders that meet the definition of a Ten Percent Shareholder during the period in which we are a CFC.

If a Holder is treated as owning a significant percentage of our equity (typically greater than 5%, but always subject to regulator discretion), the Holder may be required to undergo probity review and approval by one or more gaming regulators.

In order to operate in certain jurisdictions (including U.S. states), we obtain the appropriate licensure as required under local legislation. Generally, each relevant group company and at times certain directors, officers, employees and material shareholders (typically those beneficially holding 5% or more of equity — but not limited to that threshold of holdings nor limited to solely holding equity), would be required to qualify as suitable for a license to be awarded. For directors, officers, employees, and material shareholders, suitability is generally considered by gaming authorities by weighing (i) financial stability, integrity and responsibility; and (ii) general history and background. Most gambling authorities have the authority to weigh additional factors and require any documentation or information they deem necessary. Directors, officers, employees, and material shareholders may be required to provide extensive disclosure regarding their background, assets, liabilities, employment history, and sources of income. The failure of our officers, directors and material holders of its Ordinary Shares to submit to background checks and provide such disclosure could result in the imposition of penalties and could jeopardize the award of a contract to us or provide grounds for termination of an existing contract. Generally, any person who fails or refuses to apply for a finding of suitability or a license within the prescribed period after being advised by a competent authority that such person is required to do so may be found unsuitable or denied a license, as applicable. If any director, officer, employee or material shareholder is found unsuitable (including due to the failure to submit required documentation) by a competent regulator or authority, we may deem it necessary, or be required, to sever our relationship with such person.

If we are or any of our subsidiaries is characterized as a passive foreign investment company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders may suffer adverse tax consequences.

If we are or become or any of our subsidiaries is or becomes a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”), within the meaning of Section 1297 of the U.S. Tax Code for any taxable year (or portion thereof) during which a U.S. Holder (as defined in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”) holds our Ordinary Shares or public warrants, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences may apply to such U.S. Holder and such U.S. Holder might be subject to additional reporting requirements.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, we will be a PFIC for any taxable year in which (i) 75% or more of our gross income consists of passive income or (ii) 50% or more of the value of our assets (determined on the basis of a weighted quarterly average) consists of assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income (including cash). For purposes of these tests, passive income includes dividends, interest, gains from the sale or exchange of investment property and certain rents and royalties. For purposes of the above calculations, a non-U.S. corporation that directly or indirectly owns at least 25% by value of the shares of another corporation is treated as holding and receiving directly its proportionate share of assets and income of such corporation.

Based on the nature of our business and the valuation of our assets, including goodwill, we expect that we will not be treated as a PFIC for our taxable year ending December 31, 2022. However, no assurances regarding our PFIC status can be provided for current or future taxable years. The determination of whether we are a PFIC is a fact-intensive determination made on an annual basis and the applicable law is subject to varying interpretation. In particular, the characterization of our assets as active or passive may depend in part on our current and intended future business plans, which are subject to change. In addition, for our current and future taxable years, the total value of our assets for PFIC testing purposes may be determined in part by reference to the market price of our Ordinary Shares from time to time, which may fluctuate considerably. Under the income test, our status as a PFIC depends on the composition of our income which will depend on a variety of factors that are subject to uncertainty, including the characterization of transactions we may enter into during 2022 and in the future and our corporate structure. Even if we determine that we are not a PFIC for a taxable year, there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with our conclusion and that the IRS would not successfully challenge our position. Accordingly, our U.S. counsel expresses no opinion with respect to our PFIC status for the current taxable year or any future taxable year.

Please see the section titled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules” for a more detailed discussion with respect to our potential PFIC status. U.S. Holders (as defined in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”) are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the possible application of the PFIC rules to holders of our Ordinary Shares or public warrants.

The warrants may never be in the money, and may expire worthless.

The exercise price of the warrants is $11.50 per share. Whether the warrant holders exercise the warrants, and therefore the amount of cash proceeds that we would receive, is dependent upon the trading price of our ordinary shares. If the trading price for our ordinary shares is sustained at less than $11.50 per share, we believe holders of the warrants will be unlikely to exercise their warrants. There is no guarantee that the warrants will ever be in the money prior to their expiration, and as such, the warrants may expire worthless and we may never receive any proceeds from the exercise of the warrants.

We may issue additional Ordinary Shares or other equity securities without your approval, which would dilute your ownership interests and may depress the market price of our Ordinary Shares.

We may issue additional Ordinary Shares or other equity securities in the future in connection with, among other things, future capital raising and transactions and future acquisitions, without your approval in many circumstances.

Our issuance of additional Ordinary Shares or other equity securities would have the following effects:

•

our existing shareholders’ proportionate ownership interest in us may decrease;

•

the amount of cash available per share, including for payment of dividends in the future, may decrease;

•

the relative voting strength of each previously outstanding ordinary share may be diminished; and

•

the market price of our Ordinary Shares may decline.

We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act, and as such, we are exempt from certain provisions of the securities rules and regulations in the U.S. applicable to U.S. domestic public companies.

Because we qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we are exempt from certain provisions of the securities rules and regulations in the U.S. that are applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, including: (i) the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K; (ii) the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation

of proxies, consents, or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act; (iii) the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and (iv) the selective disclosure rules by issuers of material non-public information under Regulation FD.

We are required to file an annual report on Form 20-F within four months of the end of each fiscal year. Press releases relating to financial results and material events will also be furnished to the SEC on Form 6-K. However, the information we are required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. As a result, you may not be afforded the same protections or information that would be made available to you were you investing in a U.S. domestic issuer.

We may lose our foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional cost and expense.

We are a “foreign private issuer,” as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; however, under Rule 405, the determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last business day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to us on June 30, 2023.

In the future, we would lose our foreign private issuer status if a majority of our shareholders are U.S. residents or if a majority of our directors or management are U.S. citizens or residents, and we fail to meet additional requirements necessary to avoid loss of foreign private issuer status. Although we have elected to comply with certain U.S. regulatory provisions, our loss of foreign private issuer status would make such provisions mandatory. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under U.S. securities laws as a U.S. domestic issuer may be significantly higher. If we are not a foreign private issuer, we will be required to file periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms with the SEC, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. For example, the annual report on Form 10-K requires domestic issuers to disclose executive compensation information on an individual basis with specific disclosure regarding the domestic compensation philosophy, objectives, annual total compensation (base salary, bonus and equity compensation) and potential payments in connection with change in control, retirement, death or disability, while the annual report on Form 20-F permits foreign private issuers to disclose compensation information on an aggregate basis. We will also have to mandatorily comply with U.S. federal proxy requirements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders will become subject to the short-swing profit disclosure and recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. We may also be required to modify certain of our policies to comply with good governance practices associated with U.S. domestic issuers. Such conversion and modifications will involve additional costs. In addition, we may lose our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements on NYSE that are available to foreign private issuers.

Risks Related to Our Warrants and the Offer to Exchange and Consent Solicitation

The Warrant Amendment, if approved, will allow us to (i) require that all outstanding warrants be exchanged for Ordinary Shares at a ratio 10% lower than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer and (ii) instruct the warrant agent to cancel each outstanding private placement warrant for no consideration.

If we complete the Offer and Consent Solicitation and obtain the requisite approval of the Warrant Amendment, we will have the right to (i) require holders of all public warrants that remain outstanding upon the closing of the Offer to exchange each of their warrants for 0.225 Ordinary Shares, which represents a ratio of Ordinary Shares per warrant that is 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer, and (ii) instruct the warrant agent to cancel each outstanding private placement warrant for no consideration.

Although we intend to require an exchange of all remaining outstanding public warrants and cancel all outstanding private placement warrants as a result of the approval of the Warrant Amendment, we would not be required to effect such an exchange and cancellation and may defer doing so, if ever, until most economically advantageous to us.

One of the conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation is that (i) holders of at least 50% of then outstanding public warrants tender their warrants in the Offer, and thereby consent to the Warrant Amendment, and (ii) holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, all except certain specified modifications or amendments require the vote or written consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private placement warrants or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, the vote or written consent of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants and at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants. Therefore, one of the conditions to the adoption of the Warrant Amendment is the receipt of the consent of holders of at least 50% of the outstanding public warrants, and 50% of the outstanding private placement warrants. Parties representing approximately 22.5% of the outstanding public warrants have agreed to tender their warrants in the Offer and to consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation , and 59.5% of the outstanding private placement warrants have agreed to consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation pursuant to a tender and support agreement (the “Tender and Support Agreement”). Accordingly, if holders of an additional approximately 27.5% of the outstanding public warrants tender their public warrants in the Offer and consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation and the other conditions described herein are satisfied or waived, then the Offer will be consummated and the Warrant Amendment will be adopted.

If adopted, we currently intend to require the conversion of all outstanding public warrants to Ordinary Shares as provided in the Warrant Amendment, which would result in the holders of any remaining outstanding warrants receiving approximately 10% fewer shares than if they had tendered their warrants in the Offer.

Additionally, conditional on the completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, each of the Pre-Closing Holders have agreed to irrevocably and unconditionally waive their respective rights to receive Earnout Shares from the earnout obligation subject to and with effect from completion of the exchange.

The exchange of public warrants for Ordinary Shares will increase the number of shares eligible for future resale and result in dilution to our shareholders.

Our public warrants may be exchanged for Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Offer, which will increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our shareholders, although there can be no assurance that such warrant exchange will be completed or that all of the holders of the warrants will elect to participate in the Offer. Any public warrants remaining outstanding after the exchange likely will be exercised only if the $11.50 per share exercise price is below the market price of our Ordinary Shares. We also intend to require an exchange of all remaining outstanding public warrants assuming the approval of the Warrant Amendment. To the extent such warrants are exchanged following the approval of the Warrant Amendment or exercised, additional Ordinary Shares will be issued. These issuances of Ordinary Shares will result in dilution to our shareholders and increase the number of shares eligible for resale in the public market.

We have not obtained a third-party determination that the Offer or the Consent Solicitation is fair to warrant holders.

None of us, our affiliates, the dealer managers, the exchange agent or the information agent makes any recommendation as to whether you should exchange some or all of your warrants or consent to the Warrant Amendment. We have not retained, and do not intend to retain, any unaffiliated representative to act on behalf of

the warrant holders for purposes of negotiating the Offer or Consent Solicitation or preparing a report concerning the fairness of the Offer or the Consent Solicitation. You must make your own independent decision regarding your participation in the Offer and the Consent Solicitation.

There is no guarantee that tendering your public warrants in the Offer will put you in a better future economic position.

We can give no assurance as to the market price of our Ordinary Shares in the future. If you choose to tender some or all of your warrants in the Offer, future events may cause an increase in the market price of our Ordinary Shares and warrants, which may result in a lower value realized by participating in the Offer than you might have realized if you did not exchange your warrants. Similarly, if you do not tender your warrants in the Offer, there can be no assurance that you can sell your warrants (or exercise them for Ordinary Shares) in the future at a higher value than would have been obtained by participating in the Offer. In addition, if the Warrant Amendment is adopted, you may receive fewer shares than if you had tendered your warrants in the Offer. You should consult your own individual tax and/or financial advisor for assistance on how this may affect your individual situation.

The number of Ordinary Shares offered in the Offer is fixed and will not be adjusted. The market price of our Ordinary Shares may fluctuate, and the market price of our Ordinary Shares when we deliver our Ordinary Shares in exchange for your warrants could be less than the market price at the time you tender your warrants.

The number of Ordinary Shares for each warrant accepted for exchange is fixed at the number of shares specified on the cover of this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and will fluctuate in value if there is any increase or decrease in the market price of our Ordinary Shares or the warrants after the date of this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange. Therefore, the market price of our Ordinary Shares when we deliver Ordinary Shares in exchange for your warrants could be less than the market price of the public warrants at the time you tender your warrants. The market price of our Ordinary Shares could continue to fluctuate and be subject to volatility during the period of time between when we accept warrants for exchange in the Offer and when we deliver Ordinary Shares in exchange for warrants, or during any extension of the Offer Period.

We may redeem your unexpired warrants that are not exchanged prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless.

We will have the ability to redeem all outstanding warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at $11.50 per warrant, provided that the last reported sales price (or the closing bid price of our Ordinary Shares in the event the shares of our Ordinary Shares are not traded on any specific trading day) of our Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 10 trading days within a 20 trading-day period ending on the third business day prior to the date we send proper notice of such redemption, provided that on the date we give notice of redemption and during the entire period thereafter until the time it redeems the warrants, we have an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and current prospectus relating to them is available. If and when the warrants that are not exchanged become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. Redemption of the outstanding warrants could force a warrant holder: (i) to exercise your warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for you to do so, (ii) to sell your warrants at the then-current market price when you might otherwise wish to hold your warrants or (iii) to accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding warrants are called for redemption, will be substantially less than the market value of your warrants.

The liquidity of the warrants that are not exchanged may be reduced or inexistent.

If the Warrant Amendment is approved, it is unlikely that any warrants will remain outstanding following the completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation. See “ — The Warrant Amendment, if approved, will allow

us (i) to require that all outstanding warrants be exchanged for Ordinary Shares at a ratio 10% lower than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer and (ii) instruct the warrant agent to cancel each outstanding private placement warrant for no consideration.” However, if any unexchanged warrants remain outstanding, then the ability to sell such warrants may become more limited due to the reduction in the number of warrants outstanding upon completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation. A more limited trading market might adversely affect the liquidity, market price and price volatility of unexchanged warrants. If there continues to be a market for our unexchanged warrants, these securities may trade at a discount to the price at which the securities would trade if the number outstanding were not reduced, depending on the market for similar securities and other factors.

The Offer or the Warrant Amendment may be a taxable event for U.S. Holders.

Subject to the limitations and qualifications described in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Exchange of Warrants for Ordinary Shares,” we intend to treat your exchange of warrants for our Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Offer as a “recapitalization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code. In addition, if the Warrant Amendment is approved, we intended to treat the warrants not exchanged for Ordinary Shares in the Offer as having been exchanged for “new” warrants pursuant to the Warrant Amendment, in a transaction constituting a “recapitalization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code. However, there can be no assurance that the United States Internal Revenue Service will not assert a different treatment with respect to these transactions, including a treatment that would require U.S. Holders (as defined in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”) to recognize taxable income.

If contrary to our expectations, we were treated as a PFIC as discussed below under “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences – Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” under certain proposed Treasury Regulations, any gain realized on the exchange of warrants for Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Offer (or the deemed exchange of warrants for “new” warrants pursuant to the Warrant Amendment) might be recognized and might be subject to certain special and adverse rules requiring recognition even though the exchange pursuant to the Offer (or the deemed exchange pursuant to the Warrant Amendment) may otherwise qualify as a nonrecognition transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Losses would not be recognized.

U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Offer and the Warrant Amendment, including in the event that they do not qualify for tax-free treatment. See “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” for more information.

General Risk Factors

The terms of future indebtedness may contain restrictions on our business and operations. Our inability to comply with the terms of any of our existing or future indebtedness may adversely affect our business.

The terms of our future indebtedness may contain covenants that could, among other things, restrict our business and operations, our ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase shares, make certain investments, create liens on certain of our corporate assets, enter into affiliate transactions, merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of our assets. If we breach any of these covenants, our lenders and holders of other indebtedness may be entitled to accelerate our debt obligations. Any default could require that we repay outstanding indebtedness prior to maturity or that a lender could enforce a lien on our assets, as well as limit our ability to obtain additional financing, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on our cash flow and liquidity.

PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Defined terms included below shall have the same meaning as terms defined and included elsewhere in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange. Unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company” refers to SGHC Limited and its subsidiaries prior to the Closing.

Super Group is providing the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to aid in the analysis of the financial aspects of the Business Combination and the exchange of our outstanding public warrants for the receipt of 0.25 Ordinary Shares of the Company (the “Offer to Exchange”) pursuant to the Offer. One of the conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation is that (i) holders of at least 50% of then outstanding public warrants tender their warrants in the Offer, and thereby consent to the Warrant Amendment, and (ii) holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment. If approved, the Warrant Amendment would permit the Company to (i) require that all outstanding public warrants upon the closing of the Offer be converted into Ordinary Shares at a ratio of 0.225 Ordinary Shares per public warrant (a ratio which is 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer) and (ii) instruct the warrant agent to cancel each outstanding private placement warrant for no consideration. The Warrant Amendment will permit us to eliminate all of the warrants that remain outstanding after the Offer is consummated. Additionally, conditional upon the completion of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, each of the Pre-Closing Holders have agreed to irrevocably and unconditionally waive their respective rights to receive Earnout Shares arising from the earnout obligation subject to and with effect from completion of the exchange. The following unaudited pro forma financial information is prepared on the assumption that (i) holders of 100% of then outstanding public warrants tender their warrants in the Offer, and thereby consent to the Warrant Amendment, and therefore the earnout obligation is unconditionally waived and (ii) holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment.

Based on this assumption, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of profit or loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 presents (i) the combination of the historical statement of operations of SEAC with the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of profit or loss of SGHC for such period on a pro forma basis as if the Business Combination had occurred as of January 1, 2021 and (ii) the Offer to Exchange, the extinguishment of the Earnout Shares and the cancellation of our private placement warrants for no consideration as explained elsewhere herein.

We have not presented a pro forma condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss for the six-month period from January 1, 2022 to June 30, 2022, as SEAC had no material operations other than movements in the changes in fair value of its warrant liability until January 27, 2022, which would be reversed for the Offer to Exchange during that period for pro forma purposes. Pro forma adjustments to the pro forma condensed consolidated statement of profit and loss for Super Group’s change in the fair value of its warrant liability for warrants (€34.6 million) and changes in the fair value of the earnout liability (€194.9 million), related foreign exchange movements (€24.0 million) and related issuance of Ordinary Shares would have resulted in a pro forma loss for the six month period of €74.8 million and a pro forma loss per share of €0.15 basic and diluted.

We have not presented a pro forma consolidated statement of financial position as of June 30, 2022, as the effects of the exchange of our outstanding public warrants for receipt of 0.25 Ordinary Shares of the Company, extinguishment of the Earnout Share and cancellation of our private placement warrants would adjust our net liabilities by a decrease of €91.2 million and shareholders’ equity by an increase of €95.9 million. The Business Combination has previously been accounted for in the historic statement of financial position of Super Group as at June 30, 2022 contained elsewhere herein.

This information should be read together with the historical financial statements of SGHC and related notes and the historic unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Super Group and their related notes, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and other financial information included elsewhere in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of profit or loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 has been prepared using the following:

•

SGHC’s historical consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2021, as included in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange.

•

SEAC’s unaudited condensed statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Description of the Business Combination

On April 23, 2021, SEAC, SGHC, Merger Sub and Super Group entered into the Business Combination Agreement, which contains customary representations and warranties, covenants, closing conditions, termination provisions and other terms relating to the mergers and the other transactions contemplated thereby. Merger Sub is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Super Group. The key steps were:

SGHC shareholders (“Pre-Closing Holders”) exchanged all issued shares in SGHC for newly issued shares in Super Group at an agreed ratio. This ratio resulted in each individual SGHC shareholder maintaining the same ownership percentage in Super Group as each shareholder had in SGHC (“Pre-Closing Reorganization”).

SEAC merged with and into Merger Sub, with SEAC continuing as the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Super Group. Each shareholder and warrant holder of SEAC received the same number of shares and warrants in Super Group as each holder had in SEAC (“Merger”).

Aggregate cash consideration of $249.9 million was paid to certain of the Pre-Closing Holders in exchange for an agreed portion of their Super Group shares at a value of $10 per share.

Accounting Treatment

As the first step in the Business Combination, Super Group undertook the Pre-Closing Reorganization which was accounted for as a capital reorganization whereby all issued and outstanding shares in SGHC were obtained by Super Group in exchange for shares in Super Group. This transaction was accounted for as a capital reorganization because Super Group did not meet the definition of a business under IFRS 3 (Business Combination) prior to the Pre-Closing Reorganization. Under a capital reorganization, the consolidated financial statements of Super Group reflect the net assets transferred at pre-combination predecessor book values. Following this first step, SGHC was a wholly owned subsidiary of Super Group.

As the second step of the Business Combination, Merger Sub and SEAC undertook to complete the Merger. As a result of the Merger, the existing shareholders of SEAC exchanged their shares for shares in the Company on a 1 for 1 basis. SEAC, as the continuing surviving company in the merger, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Super Group.

SEAC is not considered a business as defined by IFRS 3 (Business Combinations) given it consists predominately of cash in the Trust Account. Therefore, the Merger transaction was accounted for under IFRS 2 (Share-based Payment). Under this method of accounting, there is no acquisition accounting and no recognition of goodwill. SEAC was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the following assumptions:

•

SGHC Shareholders hold a majority of the voting power of the combined company;

•

SGHC’s operations comprise the ongoing operations of the combined company;

•

SGHC’s designees comprise a majority of the governing body of the combined company; and

•

SGHC’s senior management comprise the senior management of the combined company.

In accordance with IFRS 2, the difference in the fair value of the consideration (i.e. shares and warrants issued by the Company) for the acquisition of SEAC over the fair value of the identifiable net assets of SEAC

represented a service for the listing of the Company and was recognized as a share-based payment expense. The consideration for the acquisition of SEAC was determined using the closing prices of SEAC’s publicly traded SEAC Class A Common Stock and the public warrants traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbols “SEAH” and “SEAH WS” in addition to the calculated fair value, using a Black Scholes valuation, of the private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor and PJT Partners Holdings LP in a private placement simultaneously with the closing of the IPO as well as in connection with the closing of the partial exercise by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and PJT Partners LP (the “Underwriters”) of their over-allotment option, with each such private placement warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Share at a price of $11.50 per share, each as of January 27, 2022.

Finally, the repurchase of the Company’s shares from Pre-Closing Holders at $10 per share was treated as a reduction in share capital and cash for the Company.

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The historical financial statements of SGHC have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and in its presentation currency of Euros. The historical financial statements of SEAC have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP in its presentation currency of U.S. Dollars. The historical financial information of SEAC has been adjusted to give effect to the differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS for the purposes of the unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial information (see Note 2 — IFRS Adjustments and Reclassifications). For purposes of having unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, the historical statement of operations of SEAC has been translated into Euros using the average exchange rate for the period from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 of $1.00 to €0.8456.

The adjustments presented on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information have been identified and presented to provide an understanding of the combined company upon consummation of the Business Combination for illustrative purposes.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” Release No. 33-10786 replaces the existing pro forma adjustment criteria with simplified requirements to depict the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”). No Management’s Adjustments have been identified by the Company and, therefore, only Transaction Accounting Adjustments are included in the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies been combined for the referenced period. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should not be relied on as being indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies been combined for the referenced period or the future results that the combined company will experience. SGHC, SEAC and the Company have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined provision for income taxes does not necessarily reflect the amounts that would have resulted had the combined company filed consolidated income tax returns during the periods presented.

The following summarizes the number of Super Group Ordinary Shares outstanding following the Closing of the Business Combination:

The difference in the estimated fair value of equity instruments (i.e., shares and warrants issued by Super Group) over the fair value of identifiable net assets of SEAC represents a service for listing of the Super Group Shares and is accounted for as a share based payment expense in accordance with IFRS 2. The cost of the service, which is a noncash and non-recurring expense, is estimated to be €126.2 million based on the calculation presented in the table below using SEAC market prices as of January 27, 2022 for both the public warrants to be automatically converted and SEAC Class A Common Stock to be exchanged for Super Group Shares to be issued by Super Group. For the private placement warrants to be automatically converted into public warrants, a preliminary valuation was performed as of January 27, 2022 for the purpose of determining the associated expense. The valuation applied a Black Scholes model, using key assumptions for volatility, risk-free rate and SEAC Class A Common Stock price. Any increase or decrease in volatility of 5%, leaving all other assumptions unchanged, would result in an increase in the fair value of the private placement warrants of approximately €1.7 million or decrease in the fair value of the private placement warrants of approximately €4.2 million, respectively.

Reflects the elimination of interest expense related to the debt for equity swap of eight individual loans completed on June 25, 2021. At the time of the swap, the debt consisted of €178.8 million of debt with an interest rate of 3-month LIBOR +5%, €23.2 million of debt with an interest rate of 6% and €1.0 million of debt with an interest rate of 2.0%, amounting to an aggregate principal balance of €203.0 million. Prior to the swap, the loan counterparties novated the loans to SGHC Shareholders in proportion to the ownership of each in SGHC. This swap of debt for equity with SGHC Shareholders is done in contemplation of the Business Combination. As the debts are no longer outstanding, the related interest expense on those loans previously recognized has been reversed.

Note 3 — Earnings per share

The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that SEAC’s initial public offering occurred as of January 1, 2021. In addition, as the Business Combination is being reflected as if it had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares have been outstanding for the entire period presented. This calculation is retroactively adjusted to eliminate the number of shares redeemed for the entire period.

The following tables summarize the number of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2021:

THE OFFER AND CONSENT SOLICITATION

Participation in the Offer and Consent Solicitation involves a number of risks, including, but not limited to, the risks identified in the section titled “Risk Factors.” Warrant holders should carefully consider these risks and are urged to speak with their personal legal, financial, investment and/or tax advisor as necessary before deciding whether or not to participate in the Offer and Consent Solicitation. In addition, we strongly encourage you to read this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange in its entirety, and the information and documents that have been included herein, before making a decision regarding the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

General Terms

Until the Expiration Date, we are offering to holders of our public warrants the opportunity to receive 0.25 Ordinary Shares in exchange for each public warrant they hold. Holders of the public warrants tendered for exchange will not have to pay any of the exercise price for the tendered warrants in order to receive Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Offer. Our consummation of the Offer is conditional on (i) holders of at least 50% of then outstanding public warrants tendering their warrants in the Offer, and thereby consenting to the Warrant Amendment, and (ii) holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants consenting to the Warrant Amendment. No fractional shares will be issued pursuant to the Offer. In lieu of issuing fractional shares to any holder of warrants who would otherwise have been entitled to receive fractional shares pursuant to the Offer, the Company will round the number of shares to which such holder is entitled, after aggregating all fractions, up to the next whole number of shares.

As part of the Offer, we are also soliciting from the holders of warrants their consent to the Warrant Amendment, which, if approved, will permit the Company to (i) require that all outstanding public warrants upon completion of the Offer be converted into Ordinary Shares at a ratio of 0.225 Ordinary Shares per warrant, which is a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer and (ii) instruct the warrant agent to cancel each outstanding private placement warrant for no consideration. The Warrant Amendment will permit us to eliminate all of the warrants that remain outstanding after the Offer is consummated. A copy of the Warrant Amendment is attached hereto as Annex A. We urge that you carefully read the Warrant Amendment in its entirety. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, all except certain specified modifications or amendments require the vote or written consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private placement warrants or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, the vote or written consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants and at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants.

Holders who tender public warrants for exchange in the Offer will automatically be deemed, without any further action, to have given their consent to approval of the Warrant Amendment (effective upon our acceptance of the tendered warrants). The consent to the Warrant Amendment is a part of the Letter of Transmittal and Consent relating to the warrants. You cannot tender any public warrants for exchange in the Offer without giving your consent to the Warrant Amendment. Thus, before deciding whether to tender any public warrants, you should be aware that a tender of warrants may result in the approval of the Warrant Amendment.

The Offer and Consent Solicitation is subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and the Letter of Transmittal and Consent.

You may tender some or all of your warrants into the Offer.

If you elect to tender public warrants in the Offer and Consent Solicitation, please follow the instructions in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and the related documents, including the Letter of Transmittal and Consent.

If you tender public warrants, you may withdraw your tendered public warrants at any time before the Expiration Date and retain them on their current terms or amended terms if the Warrant Amendment is approved, by following the instructions herein. In addition, public warrants that are not accepted by us for exchange by January 10, 2023 may thereafter be withdrawn by you until such time as the public warrants are accepted by us for exchange.

We maintain a website at https://www.sghc.com where general information about us is available. The information contained on, or that may be accessed through, our website is not part of, and is not incorporated into, this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange or the registration statement of which it forms a part. Our Ordinary Shares and public warrants trade on NYSE under the symbols “SGHC” and “SGHC WS” respectively.

Warrants Subject to the Offer and Consent Solicitation

The public warrants were issued in connection with SEAC’s IPO. The private placement warrants were issued pursuant to certain subscription agreements, each in connection with the closing of SEAC’s IPO. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The public warrants are quoted on NYSE under the symbol “SGHC WS.” As of November 9, 2022, 33,499,986 warrants were outstanding, consisting of 22,499,986 public warrants and 11,000,000 private placement warrants. Pursuant to the Offer, we are offering up to an aggregate of 5,624,997 Ordinary Shares in exchange for the warrants.

Offer Period

The Offer and Consent Solicitation will expire on the Expiration Date, which is 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on December 12, 2022, or such later time and date to which we may extend. We expressly reserve the right, in our sole discretion, at any time or from time to time, to extend the period of time during which the Offer and Consent Solicitation is open. There can be no assurance that we will exercise our right to extend the Offer Period. During any extension, all public warrant holders who previously tendered warrants will have a right to withdraw such previously tendered warrants and thereby revoke their consent to the Warrant Amendment until the Expiration Date, as extended. If we extend the Offer Period, we will make a public announcement of such extension by no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the next business day following the Expiration Date as in effect immediately prior to such extension.

We may withdraw the Offer and Consent Solicitation only if the conditions to the Offer and Consent Solicitation are not satisfied or waived prior to the Expiration Date. Upon any such withdrawal, we are required

by Rule 13e-4(f)(5) under the Exchange Act to promptly return the tendered warrants. We will announce our decision to withdraw the Offer and Consent Solicitation by disseminating notice by public announcement or otherwise as permitted by applicable law.

At the expiration of the Offer Period, the current terms of the warrants will continue to apply to any unexchanged warrants, or the amended terms if the Warrant Amendment is approved, until the warrants expire on January 27, 2027, subject to certain terms and conditions.

Amendments to the Offer and Consent Solicitation

We reserve the right at any time or from time to time, to amend the Offer and Consent Solicitation, including by increasing or (if the conditions to the Offer are not satisfied) decreasing the exchange ratio of Ordinary Shares issued for every warrant exchanged or by changing the terms of the Warrant Amendment.

If we make a material change in the terms of the Offer and Consent Solicitation or the information concerning the Offer and Consent Solicitation, or if we waive a material condition of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, we will extend the Offer and Consent Solicitation to the extent required by Rules 13e-4(d)(2) and 13e-4(e)(3) under the Exchange Act. These rules require that the minimum period during which an offer must remain open after material changes in the terms of the offer or information concerning the offer, other than a change in price or a change in percentage of securities sought, will depend upon the facts and circumstances, including the relative materiality of the changed terms or information.

If we increase or decrease the exchange ratio of our Ordinary Shares issuable in exchange for a warrant or the amount of warrants sought for tender, and the Offer and Consent Solicitation is scheduled to expire at any time earlier than the end of the tenth business day from the date that we first publish, send or give notice of such an increase or decrease, then we will extend the Offer and Consent Solicitation until the expiration of that ten business day period.

Other material amendments to the Offer and Consent Solicitation may require us to extend the Offer and Consent Solicitation for a minimum of five business days.

Partial Exchange Permitted

Our obligation to complete the Offer is conditioned on (i) holders of at least 50% of then outstanding public warrants tendering their warrants in the Offer, and thereby consent to the Warrant Amendment, and (ii) holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants consenting to the Warrant Amendment. If you choose to participate in the Offer, you may tender less than all of your public warrants pursuant to the terms of the Offer. No fractional shares will be issued pursuant to the Offer. In lieu of issuing fractional shares to any holder of public warrants who would otherwise have been entitled to receive fractional shares pursuant to the Offer, the Company will round the number of shares to which such holder is entitled, after aggregating all fractions, up to the next whole number of shares.

Conditions to the Offer and Consent Solicitation

The Offer and Consent Solicitation are conditioned upon the following:

•

the registration statement, of which this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange forms a part, shall have become effective under the Securities Act, and shall not be the subject of any stop order or proceeding seeking a stop order;

•

there shall not have been any action threatened, instituted, pending or taken, or approval withheld, or any statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order or injunction threatened, proposed, sought, promulgated, enacted, entered, amended, enforced or deemed to be applicable to the Offer or Consent Solicitation or us, by any court or any authority, agency or tribunal that, in our reasonable judgment, would or might, directly or indirectly, (i) make the acceptance for exchange of, or exchange for, some or all of the warrants illegal or otherwise restrict or prohibit completion of the Offer or Consent Solicitation, or (ii) delay or restrict our ability, or render us unable, to accept for exchange or exchange some or all of the warrants;

there shall not have occurred (i) any general suspension of, or limitation on prices for, trading in securities in U.S. securities or financial markets; (ii) a declaration of a banking moratorium or any suspension of payments in respect to banks in the United States; (iii) any limitation (whether or not mandatory) by any government or governmental, regulatory or administrative authority, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, or other event that, in our reasonable judgment, would or would be reasonably likely to affect the extension of credit by banks or other lending institutions; or (iv) a natural disaster, a significant worsening of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, an outbreak of a pandemic or contagious disease other than COVID-19, or a commencement or significant worsening of a war or armed hostilities or other national or international calamity, including but not limited to, catastrophic terrorist attacks against the United States or its citizens; and

•

the tendering of warrants by holders of at least 50% of each of the then outstanding public warrants in the Offer, and receiving the consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants (which is the minimum number required to amend the Warrant Agreement with respect to the public warrants), and the consent of at least 50% of the number of then outstanding private placement warrants and at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants (which is the minimum number required to amend the Warrant Agreement with respect to the private placement warrants).

If we extend the Offer Period, we will make a public announcement of such extension and the new Expiration Date by no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the next business day following the Expiration Date as in effect immediately prior to such extension.

In addition, as to any public warrant holder, the Offer and Consent Solicitation is conditioned upon such public warrant holder desiring to (i) tender public warrants in the Offer delivering to the exchange agent in a timely manner the holder’s public warrants to be tendered and any other required paperwork and (ii) delivering its consent to the Warrant Amendment in a timely manner, all in accordance with the applicable procedures described in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and set forth in the Letter of Transmittal and Consent.

The foregoing conditions are solely for our benefit, and we may assert one or more of the conditions regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such conditions. We may also, in our sole and absolute discretion, waive these conditions in whole or in part, subject to the potential requirement to disseminate additional information and extend the Offer Period. The determination by us as to whether any condition has been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding on all parties. The failure by us at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right, and each such right shall be deemed a continuing right which may be asserted at any time and from time to time prior to the Expiration Date.

We may withdraw the Offer and Consent Solicitation only if the conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation are not satisfied or waived prior to the Expiration Date. Promptly upon any such withdrawal, we will return the tendered public warrants and the related consent to the Warrant Amendment will be revoked. We will announce our decision to withdraw the Offer and Consent Solicitation by disseminating notice by public announcement or otherwise as permitted by applicable law.

No Recommendation; Warrant Holder’s Own Decision

None of our affiliates, directors, officers or employees, or the information agent or the exchange agent for the Offer and Consent Solicitation, is making any recommendations to any warrant holder as to whether to exchange their warrants or deliver their consent to the Warrant Amendment. Each warrant holder must make its own decision as to whether to tender public warrants for exchange pursuant to the Offer and consent to the amendment of the Warrant Agreement pursuant to the Consent Solicitation.

Procedure for Tendering Public Warrants for Exchange and Consenting to the Warrant Amendment

Issuance of Ordinary Shares upon exchange of public warrants pursuant to the Offer and acceptance by us of warrants for exchange pursuant to the Offer, and providing your consent to the Warrant Amendment, as applicable, will be made only if (i) warrants are properly tendered, and/or (ii) consents are properly received, in each case pursuant to the procedures described below and set forth in the Letter of Transmittal and Consent. A tender of warrants or delivery of consent pursuant to such procedures, if and when accepted by us, will constitute a binding agreement between the holder of warrants and us upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation. The proper tender of your public warrants will constitute a consent to the Warrant Amendment with respect to each public warrant tendered.

A tender of public warrants or delivery of consent made pursuant to any method of delivery set forth herein will also constitute an agreement and acknowledgement by the participating warrant holder that, among other things, as the case may be: (i) solely with respect to public warrant holders, such holder agrees to exchange the tendered warrants on the terms and conditions set forth in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and Letter of Transmittal and Consent, in each case as may be amended or supplemented prior to the Expiration Date; (ii) the warrant holder consents to the Warrant Amendment; (iii) the Offer and Consent Solicitation is discretionary and may be extended, modified, suspended or terminated by us as provided herein; (iv) such warrant holder is voluntarily participating in the Offer and Consent Solicitation; (v) the future value of our warrants is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; and (vi) such warrant holder has read this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, Letter of Transmittal and Consent and Warrant Amendment.

Registered Holders of Warrants; Beneficial Owners of Warrants

For purposes of the tender and consent procedures set forth below, the term “registered holder” means any person in whose name warrants are registered on our books or who is listed as a participant in a clearing agency’s security position listing with respect to the warrants.

Persons whose warrants are held through a direct or indirect participant of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), such as a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other financial intermediary, are not considered registered holders of those warrants but are “beneficial owners.” Beneficial owners cannot directly tender warrants for exchange pursuant to the Offer. Instead, a beneficial owner must instruct its broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other financial intermediary to tender warrants for exchange on behalf of the beneficial owner. See “— Required Communications by Beneficial Owners.”

Tendering Public Warrants Using Letter of Transmittal and Warrant Consents

A registered holder of warrants may tender warrants for exchange and consent to the Warrant Amendment using a Letter of Transmittal and Consent in the form provided by us with this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange. A Letter of Transmittal is to be used by public warrant holders only if delivery of public warrants and consents is to be made by book-entry transfer to the exchange agent’s account at DTC pursuant to the procedures set forth in “— Tendering Warrants Using Book-Entry Transfer”; provided, however, that it is not necessary to execute and deliver a Letter of Transmittal and Consent if instructions with respect to the tender of such warrants and consents are transmitted through DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program (“ATOP”). If you are a registered holder of public warrants, unless you intend to tender those warrants and consents through ATOP, you should complete, execute and deliver a Letter of Transmittal and Consent to indicate the action you desire to take with

respect to the Offer and Consent Solicitation. A Letter of Transmittal and Consent is also to be used by private placement warrant holders to accept the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

In order for public warrants to be properly tendered for exchange pursuant to the Offer using a Letter of Transmittal and Consent, the registered holder of the public warrants being tendered must ensure that the exchange agent receives the following: (i) a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and Consent, in accordance with the instructions of the Letter of Transmittal and Consent (including any required signature guarantees); (ii) delivery of the warrants and consents by book-entry transfer to the exchange agent’s account at DTC; and (iii) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal and Consent.

In the Letter of Transmittal and Consent, the registered warrant holder must set forth: (i) its name and address; (ii) the number of public warrants being tendered for exchange and consents being delivered by the holder; and (iii) certain other information specified in the form of Letter of Transmittal and Consent.

In certain cases, all signatures on the Letter of Transmittal and Consent must be guaranteed by an “Eligible Institution.” See “— Signature Guarantees.”

If the Letter of Transmittal and Consent is signed by someone other than the registered holder of the warrants (for example, if the registered holder has assigned the warrants to a third-party), or if our Ordinary Shares to be issued upon exchange of the tendered public warrants are to be issued in a name other than that of the registered holder of the tendered public warrants, the warrants must be properly accompanied by appropriate assignment documents, in either case signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered holder(s) appear on the warrants, with the signature(s) on the warrants or assignment documents guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

Any public warrants duly tendered and delivered as described above shall be automatically cancelled upon the issuance of Ordinary Shares in exchange for such warrants as part of the completion of the Offer.

Consenting Private Placement Warrant Holders

In order for private placement warrant holders to consent to the Warrant Amendment, such private placement holder must ensure that the exchange agent received the following: (i) a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and Consent; (ii) timely confirmation of the private placement warrant holder’s intent to consent through submission at https://cstt.citrixdata.com/r-ref9bcacb3dfb486d83ceec5b3d5d63aa or by sending it to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 1 State Street, 30th Floor, New York, NY 10004-1561; and (iii) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal and Consent.

In the Letter of Transmittal and Consent, the registered warrant holder must set forth: (i) its name and address; (ii) the number of consents being delivered, by the holder; and (iii) certain other information specified in the form of Letter of Transmittal and Consent.

In certain cases, all signatures on the Letter of Transmittal and Consent must be guaranteed by an “Eligible Institution.” See “— Signature Guarantees.”

If the Letter of Transmittal and Consent is signed by someone other than the registered holder of the warrants (for example, if the registered holder has assigned the warrants to a third-party), the warrants must be properly accompanied by appropriate assignment documents, in either case signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered holder(s) appear on the warrants, with the signature(s) on the warrants or assignment documents guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

Signature Guarantees

In certain cases, all signatures on the Letter of Transmittal and Consent must be guaranteed by an “Eligible Institution.” An “Eligible Institution” is a bank, broker dealer, credit union, savings association or other entity

that is a member in good standing of the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program or a bank, broker, dealer, credit union, savings association or other entity which is an “eligible guarantor institution,” as that term is defined in Rule 17Ad-15 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Signatures on the Letter of Transmittal and Consent need not be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution if (i) the Letter of Transmittal and Consent is signed by the registered holder of the warrants tendered therewith exactly as the name of the registered holder appears on such warrants and such holder has not completed the box entitled “Special Issuance Instructions” or the box entitled “Special Delivery Instructions” in the Letter of Transmittal and Consent; or (ii) such warrants are tendered for the account of an Eligible Institution. In all other cases, an Eligible Institution must guarantee all signatures on the Letter of Transmittal and Consent by completing and signing the table in the Letter of Transmittal and Consent entitled “Guarantee of Signature(s).”

Required Communications by Beneficial Owners

Persons whose warrants are held through a direct or indirect DTC participant, such as a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other financial intermediary, are not considered registered holders of those warrants, but are “beneficial owners,” and must instruct the broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other financial intermediary to tender warrants on their behalf. Your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other financial intermediary should have provided you with an “Instructions Form” with this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange. The Instructions Form is also filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange forms a part. The Instructions Form may be used by you to instruct your broker or other custodian to tender and deliver warrants on your behalf.

Tendering Warrants Using Book-Entry Transfer

The exchange agent has established an account for the warrants at DTC for purposes of the Offer and Consent Solicitation. Any financial institution that is a participant in DTC’s system may make book-entry delivery of warrants by causing DTC to transfer such warrants into the exchange agent’s account in accordance with ATOP. However, even though delivery of public warrants may be effected through book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s account at DTC, a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and Consent (with any required signature guarantees), or an “Agent’s Message” as described in the next paragraph, and any other required documentation, must in any case also be transmitted to and received by the exchange agent at its address set forth in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange prior to the Expiration Date, or the guaranteed delivery procedures described under “— Guaranteed Delivery Procedures” must be followed.

DTC participants desiring to tender public warrants for exchange pursuant to the Offer may do so through ATOP, and in that case the participant need not complete, execute and deliver a Letter of Transmittal and Consent. DTC will verify the acceptance and execute a book-entry delivery of the tendered warrants to the exchange agent’s account at DTC. DTC will then send an “Agent’s Message” to the exchange agent for acceptance. Delivery of the Agent’s Message by DTC will satisfy the terms of the Offer and Consent Solicitation as to execution and delivery of a Letter of Transmittal and Consent by the DTC participant identified in the Agent’s Message. The term “Agent’s Message” means a message, transmitted by DTC to, and received by, the exchange agent and forming a part of a Book-Entry Confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the participant in DTC tendering the public warrants for exchange that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Letter of Transmittal and Consent and that our company may enforce such agreement against the participant. Any DTC participant tendering by book-entry transfer must expressly acknowledge that it has received and agrees to be bound by the Letter of Transmittal and Consent and that the Letter of Transmittal and Consent may be enforced against it.

Delivery of a Letter of Transmittal and Consent or any other required documentation to DTC does not constitute delivery to the Exchange Agent. See “— Timing and Manner of Deliveries.”

Guaranteed Delivery Procedures

If a registered holder of public warrants desires to tender its warrants for exchange pursuant to the Offer, but (i) the procedure for book-entry transfer cannot be completed on a timely basis, or (ii) time will not permit all required documents to reach the exchange agent prior to the Expiration Date, the holder can still tender its public warrants if all the following conditions are met:

•

the tender is made by or through an Eligible Institution;

•

the exchange agent receives by hand, mail, overnight courier, facsimile or electronic mail transmission, prior to the Expiration Date, a properly completed and duly executed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery in the form we have provided with this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, with signatures guaranteed by an Eligible Institution; and

•

a confirmation of a book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s account at DTC of all warrants delivered electronically, together with a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and Consent with any required signature guarantees (or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message in accordance with ATOP), and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal and Consent, must be received by the exchange agent within two days that NYSE is open for trading after the date the exchange agent receives such Notice of Guaranteed Delivery.

In any case where the guaranteed delivery procedure is utilized for the tender of public warrants pursuant to the Offer, the issuance of Ordinary Shares for those warrants tendered for exchange pursuant to the Offer and accepted pursuant to the Offer will be made only if the exchange agent has timely received the applicable foregoing items.

Timing and Manner of Deliveries

UNLESS THE GUARANTEED DELIVERY PROCEDURES DESCRIBED ABOVE ARE FOLLOWED, PUBLIC WARRANTS WILL BE PROPERLY TENDERED ONLY IF, BY THE EXPIRATION DATE, THE EXCHANGE AGENT RECEIVES SUCH PUBLIC WARRANTS BY BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER, TOGETHER WITH A PROPERLY COMPLETED AND DULY EXECUTED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND CONSENT OR AN AGENT’S MESSAGE.

ALL DELIVERIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE OFFER AND CONSENT SOLICITATION, INCLUDING ANY LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND CONSENT AND THE TENDERED WARRANTS, MUST BE MADE TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT. NO DELIVERIES SHOULD BE MADE TO US. ANY DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO US WILL NOT BE FORWARDED TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT AND THEREFORE WILL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE PROPERLY TENDERED. THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF ALL REQUIRED DOCUMENTS IS AT THE OPTION AND RISK OF THE TENDERING WARRANT HOLDERS. IF DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, WE RECOMMEND REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED (PROPERLY INSURED). IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.

Determination of Validity

All questions as to the form of documents and the validity, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for exchange of any tender of warrants will be determined by us, in our sole discretion, and our determination will be final and binding. We reserve the absolute right to reject any or all tenders of warrants that we determine are not in proper form or reject tenders of warrants that may, in the opinion of our counsel, be unlawful. We also reserve the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity in any tender of any particular

warrant, whether or not similar defects or irregularities are waived in the case of other tendered warrants. Neither we nor any other person will be under any duty to give notice of any defect or irregularity in tenders, nor shall any of us or them incur any liability for failure to give any such notice.

Fees and Commissions

Tendering warrant holders who tender public warrants directly to the exchange agent will not be obligated to pay any charges or expenses of the exchange agent, or any brokerage commissions. Beneficial owners who hold warrants through a broker or bank should consult that institution as to whether or not such institution will charge the owner any service fees in connection with tendering warrants on behalf of the owner pursuant to the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

Transfer Taxes

We will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the transfer of warrants to us in the Offer. If transfer taxes are imposed for any other reason, the amount of those transfer taxes, whether imposed on the registered holder or any other persons, will be payable by the tendering holder. Other reasons transfer taxes could be imposed include (i) if our Ordinary Shares is to be registered or issued in the name of any person other than the person signing the Letter of Transmittal and Consent, or (ii) if tendered warrants are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing the Letter of Transmittal and Consent. If satisfactory evidence of payment of or exemption from those transfer taxes is not submitted with the Letter of Transmittal and Consent, the amount of those transfer taxes will be billed directly to the tendering holder and/or withheld from any payment due with respect to the warrants tendered by such holder.

Withdrawal Rights

By tendering public warrants for exchange, a holder of public warrants will be deemed to have validly delivered its consent to the Warrant Amendment. Tenders of public warrants made pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the Expiration Date. Consents by holders of public warrants to the Warrant Amendment in connection with the Consent Solicitation may be revoked at any time before the Expiration Date by (i) withdrawing the tendered public warrants, or (ii) revoking the related consent. A valid withdrawal of public warrants before the Expiration Date will be deemed to be a concurrent revocation of the related consent to the Warrant Amendment. Tenders of public warrants and related consents to the Warrant Amendment may not be withdrawn after the Expiration Date. Consents by holders of private placement warrant holders may not be revoked. If the Offer Period is extended, you may withdraw public warrants and revoke your related consent at any time until the expiration of such extended Offer Period. After the Offer Period expires, such tenders are irrevocable, provided, however, that public warrants that are not accepted by us for exchange by January 10, 2023 may thereafter be withdrawn by you until such time as the public warrants are accepted by us for exchange.

To be effective, a written notice of withdrawal and consent revocation must be timely received by the exchange agent at its address identified in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange. Any notice of withdrawal and consent revocation must specify the name of the person who (i) tendered the public warrants for which tenders are to be withdrawn and the number of public warrants to be withdrawn, and (ii) submitted a consent to the Warrant Amendment and the number of public warrants related to such consent. If the public warrants to be withdrawn and the consents to be revoked have been delivered to the exchange agent, a signed notice of withdrawal and consent revocation must be submitted prior to release of such warrants and revocation of consents. In addition, such notice must specify the name of the registered holder (if different from that of the tendering and consenting public warrant holder). A withdrawal and consent revocation may not be cancelled and public warrants for which tenders are withdrawn and consents are revoked will thereafter be deemed not validly tendered or consented for purposes of the Offer and Consent Solicitation. However, public warrants for which tenders are withdrawn or consents that have been revoked may be tendered or delivered again by following one of the procedures described above in the section titled “— Procedure for Tendering Warrants for Exchange” at any time prior to the Expiration Date.

A beneficial owner of public warrants desiring to withdraw tendered public warrants and consents previously delivered through DTC should contact the DTC participant through which such owner holds its warrants. In order to withdraw public warrants previously tendered and related revoke consents submitted, a DTC participant may, prior to the Expiration Date, withdraw its instruction by (i) withdrawing its acceptance through DTC’s Participant Tender Offer Program (“PTOP”) function, or (ii) delivering to the exchange agent by mail, hand delivery or facsimile transmission, notice of withdrawal of such instruction. The notice of withdrawal must contain the name and number of the DTC participant. A withdrawal of an instruction must be executed by a DTC participant as such DTC participant’s name appears on its transmission through the PTOP function to which such withdrawal relates. If the tender being withdrawn was made through ATOP, it may only be withdrawn through PTOP, and not by hard copy delivery of withdrawal instructions. A DTC participant may withdraw a tendered public warrant only if such withdrawal complies with the provisions described in this paragraph.

A holder who tendered its public warrants and submitted consents other than through DTC should send written notice of withdrawal to the exchange agent specifying the name of the warrant holder who tendered the public warrants and submitted consents being withdrawn. All signatures on a notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution, as described above in the section titled “— Procedure for Tendering Warrants for Exchange — Signature Guarantees”; provided, however, that signatures on the notice of withdrawal need not be guaranteed if the public warrants being withdrawn are held for the account of an Eligible Institution. Withdrawal of a prior public warrant tender and submitted consent will be effective upon receipt of the notice of withdrawal by the exchange agent. Selection of the method of notification is at the risk of the warrant holder, and notice of withdrawal must be timely received by the exchange agent.

All questions as to the form and validity (including time of receipt) of any notice of withdrawal will be determined by us, in our sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding. Neither we nor any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity in any notice of withdrawal or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

Acceptance for Issuance of Shares and Consent Amendment

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, we will accept for exchange public warrants validly tendered, and consents to the Warrant Amendment duly delivered until the Expiration Date, which is 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on December 12, 2022, or such later time and date to which we may extend. Our Ordinary Shares to be issued upon exchange of public warrants pursuant to the Offer, along with written notice from the exchange agent confirming the balance of any warrants not exchanged or for which a consent was not provided, will be delivered promptly following the Expiration Date. In all cases, warrants will only be accepted for exchange, and consents will be accepted, pursuant to the Offer and Consent Solicitation after timely receipt by the exchange agent of (i) book-entry delivery of the tendered warrants and consent, (ii) a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and Consent, or compliance with ATOP where applicable, (iii) any other documentation required by the Letter of Transmittal and Consent, and (iv) any required signature guarantees.

For purposes of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, we will be deemed to have accepted for exchange public warrants that are validly tendered and for which tenders are not withdrawn, and related duly submitted consents that have not been revoked, unless we give written notice to the warrant holder of our non-acceptance.

Announcement of Results of the Offer and Consent Solicitation

We will announce the final results of the Offer and Consent Solicitation, including whether all of the conditions to the Offer and Consent Solicitation have been satisfied or waived and whether we will accept the tendered warrants for exchange, as promptly as practicable following the end of the Offer Period. The announcement will be made by a press release and by amendment to the Schedule TO we will file with the SEC in connection with the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

Background and Purpose of the Offer and Consent Solicitation

The Board approved the Offer and Consent Solicitation on November 9, 2022. The purpose of the Offer and Consent Solicitation is to attempt to simplify our capital structure, increase our public float and reduce the potential dilutive impact of the warrants, which we believe will provide us with more flexibility for financing our operations and growth opportunities in the future.

Over the six months ended June 30, 2022, on average, over 2.6 million customers per month have yielded in excess of €2.5 billion in wagers per month. During the period from January 1, 2022 to June 30, 2022, total wagers amounted to €15.6 billion. Super Group’s business generated €655 million on a pro forma consolidated basis of net gaming revenue between January 1, 2022 and June 30, 2022 in different geographic regions, including the Americas, Europe, Africa and the rest of the world, such regions accounting for approximately 46%, 10%, 20% and 24%, respectively, during the period. Over the twelve months of 2021, on average, over 2.8 million customers per month have yielded in excess of €3.2 billion in wagers per month. During the period January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021, total wagers amounted to €38 billion. Super Group’s business generated €1.26 billion ($1.48 billion) on a pro forma consolidated basis of net gaming revenue between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2021 in different geographic regions, including the Americas, Europe, Africa and the rest of the world, such regions accounting for approximately 47%, 11%, 17% and 25%, respectively, during the period.

What Super Group Does

Super Group’s global online sports betting and casino gaming services are delivered to customers by way of two primary product offerings:

•

Betway, a single-brand premier online sports betting offering, and

•

Spin, a multi-brand online casino offering.

Betway is Super Group’s single-brand online sports betting offering with a global footprint derived from licenses to operate throughout Europe, the Americas and Africa. The brand is sports-led but also offers casino games. Betway seeks to continue to grow brand awareness, including through an expanding portfolio of partnerships and collaborations with sports teams and leagues worldwide. As of the date of this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, Betway has more than 60 such arrangements and is actively negotiating for further expansion.

Spin is Super Group’s multi-brand online casino offering. Spin’s diverse portfolio of more than 20 casino brands is designed to be culturally relevant across the globe while aiming to offer a wide range of casino products. Spin seeks to achieve growth through a broad range of targeted marketing channels in which the Company believes an expansive brand portfolio to be a significant asset.

Super Group aims to further expand its global footprint through the acquisition of Digital Gaming Corporation Limited (“DGC”), which is the parent of Digital Gaming Corporation USA (“DGC USA”), which holds the exclusive license to use the Betway brand in the United States. On April 7, 2021, SGHC entered into a definitive agreement to acquire DGC, subject to certain regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. DGC USA has already secured market access in up to an initial 12 regulated or expected-to-be regulated states in the United States and its acquisition will enable Super Group to penetrate and leverage its capabilities in these new markets.

Following Betway’s global expansion, the Company has, in certain circumstances, licensed the brand to third parties in certain jurisdictions where licensees are in a better position to capture market opportunity while taking advantage of the global brand, in consideration for a license fee.

Company Background

The Company, or Super Group (SGHC) Limited, is a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Island of Guernsey, and was incorporated for the purpose of effectuating the Business Combination described in this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange. Prior to the Business Combination, which occurred on January 27, 2022, the Company had no material assets and did not operate any businesses. SGHC is a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Island of Guernsey and its business and operations are conducted through numerous subsidiaries that are incorporated in various jurisdictions around the world. The principal executive office of SGHC and the Company is located in Bordeaux Court, Les Echelons, St. Peter Port, Guernsey, GY1 1AR.

SGHC was incorporated in July 2020, with the designed purpose of becoming the ultimate parent company of Pindus Holdings Limited (“Pindus”), Fengari Holdings Limited (“Fengari”), and Pelion Holdings Limited (“Pelion”), through a reorganization of entities with common ownership. Pelion and Fengari collectively house the Spin business while Pindus and other entities also acquired pursuant to the reorganization collectively house the Betway business. Predecessor companies for the two businesses were established from 1997 onwards. Of the founders and early staff members of these predecessor companies, more than 20 remain who have been employed by the Company for more than 20 years, including CEO Neal Menashe and CFO Alinda van Wyk.

On October 7, 2020, SGHC entered into an agreement with the shareholders of Fengari, a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Island of Guernsey, pursuant to which it acquired the entire issued share capital of Fengari. The purpose of this transaction was to consolidate Fengari and its subsidiaries into the SGHC group while retaining the ultimate beneficial ownership position of Fengari. On October 7, 2020, SGHC entered into an agreement with the shareholders of Pelion, a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Island of Guernsey, pursuant to which it acquired the entire issued share capital of Pelion. The purpose of this transaction was to consolidate Pelion and its subsidiaries into the SGHC group while retaining the ultimate beneficial ownership position of Pelion.

Super Group’s Opportunity and Large and Expanding Total Addressable Market

The Growing Global Sports Betting and Online Casino Gaming Markets

Super Group’s brands operate in two distinct sectors of the global online gaming market, namely sports betting and online casino gaming, both of which have recently experienced significant growth and which are expected to continue to grow further in the coming years.

According to H2 Gambling Capital (“H2”), global online sports betting gross gaming revenue (“GGR”) is projected to grow from $53.8 billion in 2021 to $87.2 billion by 2026, while the global online casino gaming market is projected to grow from $33.0 billion in 2021 to $61.3 billion by 2026, in part due to projected strong growth in newly regulated markets, including within the United States.

Several countries in Africa and Europe have already liberalized and regulated sports betting and/or online casino gaming with several more in the early stages of doing so. H2 has projected European sports betting and online casino gaming GGR to grow from $38.1 billion in 2021 to as much as $54.8 billion by 2026, and projects African GGR to grow from $1.5 billion in 2021 to $4.1 billion by 2026. Africa and Europe are already significant markets for Super Group and the Company believes that it is well-positioned to take advantage of opportunities as and when jurisdictions within these regions regulate online sports betting and online casino gaming.

In May 2018 the U.S. Supreme Court repealed the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 (“PASPA”), the effect of which was to remove federal restrictions on sports betting and give individual states control over the legalization of sports betting within their jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2021, 33 states plus Washington, DC have passed measures to legalize sports betting (three of those states are not yet operational). Out of that number, 22 states have authorized statewide, online sports betting while 11 remain retail-only at casino or retail locations. Seven states have passed measures to legalize online casino gaming. In Canada, Parliament recently passed legislation allowing provinces to regulate single-game wagering within each province. Specifically, Ontario initiated a regime and their market went live on April 4, 2022, accepting applications for registration for regulated sports betting and casino gaming until October 31, 2022. Both Spin, via Cadtree Limited, and Betway, via Cadway limited, have successfully registered to offer their respective sports and/or casino products to Ontario residents, and are both currently live there.

H2 currently projects that the North American online sports betting and casino market will generate an estimated $40.6 billion in GGR in 2026, increased from $12.2 billion in 2021, of which $35.3 billion and $9.6 billion respectively is projected to come from the United States (excluding state lotteries).

Super Group is a market leader in sports betting and online casino gaming, with net gaming revenue of $1.48 billion (€1.26 billion) in the year ended December 31, 2021, of which approximately 49.2% was generated by Betway and the remainder from Spin. The Company holds licenses, which include both sports betting and online casino gaming, in over 20 jurisdictions, excluding up to 12 jurisdictions in which DGC USA has obtained initial agreed market access deals in the United States (either via obtaining the required licenses or approvals from the relevant state authorities or via commercial arrangements through which DGC USA leases a license from a land-based operator to satisfy the legal requirement that any online operation must be tethered to a land-based operation), and is currently applying for or negotiating licenses in other states and jurisdictions. As of the date of this Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, the Betway brand (operated by licensee, DGC USA) is live in 7 US states, being Arizona, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Iowa, Colorado and Virginia. We expect the Betway brand to go live in Ohio and Louisiana during the first quarter of 2023. For the remaining 3 states, being Kansas, Mississippi and Missouri, as a result of a combination of timing around the introduction of regulations and/or receipt of required licenses and approvals, there is currently no specific timeline for go-live. An agreement is also in place for the provision of an additional casino brand in Pennsylvania.

Super Group’s Core Strengths

Management believes that the following are key factors underlying the Company’s successful expansion:

Betway’s global single brand offers significant marketing economies of scale

Super Group’s flagship brand, Betway, operates as a global, online, sports-led betting brand that is consistently positioned in all markets. This approach aims to leverage national, regional and local marketing spend for global benefit, and management believes that it will generate significant marketing economies of scale as the business expands and Betway continues to launch into new markets. See the sections titled “— Strategy, Products and Business Model” and “— Sales and Marketing” for further detail.

For example, prior to launching in the United States, Betway had already entered into marketing partnerships with U.S. sports franchises such as the Chicago Bulls, the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Los Angeles

Clippers, the Golden State Warriors and the New York Islanders. Management believes that, in addition to raising the profile of Betway’s brand in the United States, the global reach of these brands will benefit the Company in markets outside of the United States where U.S. sports are followed. Previous examples of the value of this strategy include the Company’s partnership with the English Premier League team West Ham United, which according to independent assessment had by the end of 2021 returned value equivalent to 5.8 times the cost thereof.

Management actively seeks to validate its belief in this approach by means of regular brand awareness studies, as evidenced by the following chart reflecting studies conducted in 2021:

LOGO

Spin’s multi-brand casino portfolio maximizes market share

Spin’s multi-brand online casino offering is designed with the intention of capturing additional shelf space across a myriad of marketing channels, particularly in markets where opportunities for effective large scale brand advertising are harder to come by and/or where more diverse marketing approaches are necessary.

For example, in some markets the Company believes that the predominant or more effective form of marketing is with the assistance of independent “affiliates” marketers. In particular, in such circumstances the Company believes that there is significant benefit in providing such “affiliates” with a wide array of brands to market. See the section titled “— Sales and Marketing.”

Strategic use of data optimizes customer enjoyment and Company profitability

Super Group’s strategic focus on data and analytics is embodied in the development of proprietary technology systems designed to leverage the large volumes of proprietary data that the Company collects and analyses on a daily basis. These systems and this data collection and analysis are designed to operate in conjunction with all of the Company’s product platforms, regardless of whether the latter are proprietary or supplied by third parties. See the section titled “— Super Group’s Technology and Data-Driven Approach.”

These systems aim to analyze and understand customer behaviors in as close to real-time as possible. Using this intelligence, the Company aims to responsibly and profitably optimize customer enjoyment and longevity via interactions, interventions and recommendations delivered as close to real-time as possible, to minimize fraud and other financial risks to the Company, and to meet the Company’s regulatory and compliance requirements as efficiently and effectively as possible.

Strategic technology selection maximizes speed-to-market, geographic expansion and competitive advantage

The Company’s customer-facing product technology decisions are governed by management’s belief that product selection for new markets must seek to optimize speed-to-market, product-market fit and competitive

advantage. Elsewhere and wherever commercially possible, the Company seeks to use technology for competitive advantage, particularly with regards to anything related to data and analytics.

Diversification and visibility

The Company’s strategy of expanding into as many commercially feasible regulated markets as possible has resulted in having gaming licenses in more than 20 diverse jurisdictions, excluding up to 12 jurisdictions in which DGC USA has obtained initial market access deals in the United States, and additional states and jurisdictions for which it is currently applying for or negotiating licenses. Management believes that such diversification is key to good future revenue and profit visibility, also acting as a mitigating factor against any market closures. The Company’s teams in 18 countries around the world ensure a natural degree of protection for the Company against natural disasters, geopolitical risks or other potential operational disruptions. With licenses and access in additional jurisdictions and U.S. states currently being applied for or negotiated, management believes that the Company’s diversification and revenue and profits visibility will continue to improve. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Projections — Our growth prospects and market potential will depend on our ability to obtain licenses to operate in a number of regulated jurisdictions and if we fail to obtain such licenses our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be impaired.”

Global expansion, local focus

While the Company is global, management approaches each market individually, tailoring product, staffing and marketing decisions to meet local conditions. In some countries, dedicated in-country staff are employed in order to coordinate jurisdiction-specific marketing campaigns and for local operational or other purposes, including 24/7/365 customer service, production of local content for customer engagement, locally relevant branding and marketing campaigns, acquisition of local payment processing mechanisms, and engagement with local social responsibility and community upliftment organizations.

Worldwide, the Company’s sportsbook trading team of more than 140 employees benefits from long-term relationships with third-party technology providers. Across Africa, the Company employs an operational team of approximately 600 employees to develop, expand and operate the Company’s proprietary sportsbook and purpose-built African market platform.

Proven ability to launch and scale new markets quickly

A typical entry into a new market requires an upfront capital investment that will vary depending on how much customization is required for compliance with local regulatory and other conditions. In addition, some markets are more restrictive and/or more specific in their regulation than other markets which can increase the amount of time required until full integration is achieved. However, the Company has proven its ability to enter and profitably launch in new markets despite varying integration times.

For example, within 24 months of the April 2018 commencement of marketing in one new African market, revenue grew by 16.5 times from approximately $145,000 at the outset to $2.35 million GGR per month and has continued to grow since. During the same period, first time depositors increased by 12.6 times. Similarly, in another new market in Europe (non-English-speaking, highly competitive), marketing commenced in September 2018, resulting in 10.3 times growth in revenue over the following 24 months from approximately $175,000 to $1.75 million GGR per month. During the same period, first time depositors increased by 13.6 times.

Management believes that these results are indicative of the global strength of the Betway brand. In effect, management’s belief is that Betway’s global brand presence creates latent demand within new markets owing to the fact that even prior to Betway’s entry into a market it will be well-known to potential customers by virtue of the wide range of partnerships and sponsorships that the Betway brand engages in around the world.

Management further believes that the Company’s results to date are evidence that this latent demand can be successfully leveraged by proven marketing strategies (see “— Sales and Marketing”), flexible and pragmatic

technology selection (see “— Super Group’s Technology and Data-Driven Approach”) and, where necessary, in-country focused teams with local skills and knowledge.

Shared centers of operational excellence and operational economies of scale

Whereas management believes that marketing, product and customer service often require a significant degree of localization, other areas within the business are expected to benefit from centralization and economies of scale.

Examples of this include technology and software, data and analytics, payment processing, fraud detection, compliance and risk management. Certain aspects of marketing, product and customer service are also believed to be best centralized, albeit with careful consideration of how not to inhibit regional innovation, quality and delivery.

Super Group aims to strike a considered balance between centralization and distributed localization to achieve optimal customer service, effective overall delivery and meaningful economies of scale, all in service of continued growth and optimal long-term expected returns to shareholders.

Responsible Gaming

Super Group views responsible gaming as both a challenge and an opportunity, and ultimately as a barrier to entry and a source of competitive advantage.

The challenge of meeting regulatory requirements in a commercially prudent and effective manner is clear. Management believes that Super Group has thus far been successful in meeting this challenge, as evidenced by the more than 20 licensed jurisdictions in which the Company already holds licenses.

The opportunity arises from the Company’s view that attempting to meet the betting and gaming entertainment needs of customers in a responsible manner will ultimately lead to more satisfied customers, which in turn will generate more sustainable and more stable revenues, and hence better long-term visibility of revenues and profits.

As the sports betting and online casino gaming business has matured over time, naturally the level of complexity in the business has increased. This is in part due to some significant variation in regulations in different jurisdictions that have in aggregate created natural barriers to entry. Smaller operators have increasingly struggled to survive the demands of growing operational complexity, which management believes has contributed in part to recent consolidation within the industry.

Management believes that the Company’s shared centers of operational excellence and economies of scale in conjunction with a strategic focus on data, analysis and timeous customer interaction (see the section titled “ — Super Group’s Technology and Data-Driven Approach”) create a significant competitive advantage for the Company. Super Group’s ability to gather and analyze data regarding customer behaviors and experience both enables the provision of an individualized experience to customers as well as real-time identification of potential problem gaming or risk of harm. As set out further in the section titled “— Super Group’s Technology and Data-Driven Approach”, the Company employs numerous real-time interventions when appropriate to do so and subject to relevant regulation.

Management experience

Super Group’s CEO, Neal Menashe, has more than two decades of experience in the sports betting and online casino gaming industry. The Company’s President and COO, Richard Hasson, has more than 12 years of experience in investment banking, sports betting and online casino gaming. The Company’s CFO, Alinda van Wyk, also has more than two decades of experience in the financial management of sports betting and online casino gaming businesses. The Company benefits from a deep bench of professionals in its management team with significant experience, either with the Company, or in the industry.

Strategy, Products and Business Model

Strategy

Super Group’s diagnosis of the key challenges and opportunities in the global online gaming market follow from the Company’s belief that:

•

Over time a significant number of additional jurisdictions will regulate sports betting and/or online casino gaming.

•

Jurisdictions which explicitly regulate sports betting and/or online casino gaming will become easier to market in at scale, but simultaneously will likely become more competitive, in which case brand strength will become an important determinant of success.

•

Jurisdictions which have not yet introduced explicit regulatory frameworks may still be legal to operate in (subject to certain limited regulations), but marketing at scale may be harder to achieve, in which case a portfolio of brands will be a significant asset.

In order to address these challenges, the Company’s three key strategies serve as its guiding policies that govern everything that the Company does.

Expanding its global footprint into as many commercially feasible regulated markets as possible in order to engage with as many customers as it can possibly reach;

Increasing awareness of its brands through strategic partnerships and coordinated sponsorship and marketing campaigns; and

Utilizing enhanced proprietary data to optimize the confluence of ethical corporate culture, responsible gaming values, value-for-money product offerings and customer-centric service delivery.

The Company believes that maximum value for shareholders will be delivered by seeking to operate in as many different jurisdictions as it is legal and commercially viable to do so, and that it is imperative that the Company seeks to continue its expansion into and growth in jurisdictions where robust regulatory frameworks provide long-term visibility of revenues and profits.

The Company further believes that a single-brand online sports and multi-brand online casino strategy is the optimal way to leverage its available marketing budget. Given the Company’s belief that over time more and more jurisdictions will regulate sports betting and/or online casino gaming, this strategy aims to generate increasing economies of marketing scale, improved global brand awareness, increasing market share and ultimately enhanced returns to shareholders.

Proprietary, bespoke and common technology stacks and service infrastructures are leveraged where the Company believes that it makes commercial sense to do so, whilst third-party products and services are incorporated where the Company believes that doing so will achieve market entry faster, more effectively and more profitably. The Company aims to layer its proprietary data collection and analysis, together with proprietary interaction systems, on top thereof so as to responsibly optimize the entertainment, well-being and profitability of its customers. See “— Super Group’s Technology and Data-Driven Approach” for further detail.

For strategic reasons set out below, the Company has intentionally set out to differentiate the Betway and Spin product offerings and business models.

Betway’s sports betting products

Betway is positioned as a premium sportsbook that offers full-featured sports betting products for pre-game and in-game wagering. Different products and/or features are offered in different geographic markets depending on regulatory constraints, product availability, market maturity and strategic value of the market.

Betway’s flagship sports betting product is bespoke-developed exclusively for Betway (see the sections titled “— Super Group’s Technology and Data-Driven Approach” and “— Partnerships, Suppliers and Strategic Collaborations”) and is currently capable of accepting wagers on more than 60 different sports. This product is offered in the majority of the relatively mature markets in which Betway operates, such as the UK and most European markets. For other markets, the Company has developed a proprietary sports betting platform that it will aim to re-use where appropriate.

Betway is in financial discussions with long-term partner and key supplier Apricot, its sportsbook provider for many of its jurisdictions outside Africa. As such, the Company is considering an arrangement that would materially increase the dedicated development resources available to Betway as its exclusive licensee of its sportsbook. This involves increasing the spending and investment in software development for the next several quarters, a portion of which may be as a loan to Apricot not to exceed €43 million to cover the substantial resources dedicated to Betway. In connection with this additional spending, the Company and Apricot have begun discussions oriented towards the possibility of the Company obtaining full ownership of its sportsbook through an option to purchase a copy of the underlying technology in the future. These discussions are in their early stages and the Company cannot give any assurance on reaching binding terms

The global sports betting market is constantly evolving and new markets are regulating or re-regulating all the time, often with very specific and sometimes complex regulatory requirements that require significant development work in order to achieve compliance. For this reason, even the world’s largest sports betting businesses struggle to keep pace with adapting their existing products for regulatory compliance and/or product and cultural requirements of new markets.

Accordingly, in addition to the exclusive flagship sportsbook and the proprietary sportsbook platforms, in some new markets (particularly those where the proprietary and flagship products are not yet customized for specific local regulations), the Company may partner with additional third-party product providers in order to minimize delays to market entry.

Betway’s online casino gaming products

Betway’s sports-led marketing places sports betting products front and center to reinforce the brand’s premium sportsbook positioning. A significant percentage of sports betting customers nonetheless also enjoy casino gambling and hence Betway also offers casino games in those jurisdictions where regulatory frameworks allow.

Slightly differing products may be offered in different jurisdictions depending on regulatory requirements and product availability. Casino games are sourced from third-party suppliers selected for their appropriateness for each market. Currently, Betway offers in excess of 2,000 unique casino games including over 200 live casino tables from 30 different suppliers.

Spin’s multiple online casino gaming brands

Spin operates a portfolio of more than 20 brands, the majority of which are translated into multiple languages and offer customers the ability to play in excess of 1,500 online casino games from seven different suppliers. The five largest brands accounted for 94% of Spin’s revenue in 2021.

In contrast with Betway’s single-brand scale-marketing approach, Spin seeks to compete in markets where marketing at scale is often much harder, and hence where a large portfolio of brands and a diverse product range offers Spin the ability to attract a wider variety of customers than a single brand would be able to do in the absence of meaningful large-scale marketing.

Management believes that the effectiveness of this strategy is further enhanced by a wide variety of marketing channels (see “— Sales and Marketing”).

On September 1, 2022, the Company acquired a majority stake in Jumpman Gaming Limited (“Jumpman”), a small, UK-focused casino business. Jumpman operates approximately 200 brands. In September 2022, Jumpman contributed approximately €7 million of Net Revenue.

Worldwide, Betway and Spin products are available for play in 40 different currencies and customers are serviced in 27 different languages.

Super Group’s Technology and Data-Driven Approach

Super Group manages over 1,000 technology-focused staff to support and enhance its product offerings. Teams are grouped into product-focused and system-oriented portfolios aimed at driving effective ownership of solutions and enabling efficient delivery and scaling.

Teams are responsible for their own plans in support of the Company’s strategy, derived from a combination of customer requirements, regulatory frameworks, competitor analysis, product performance metrics and hypothesis-driven engineering. In combination, this approach aims to maximally optimize SGHC’s technology flexibility, functionality, delivery, reliability and competitive edge.

Operationally, Super Group embraces DevOps principles, including continuous delivery of systems aimed at minimizing deployment pain and maximizing customer trust and confidence.

Information security is assigned a very high priority by the Company. Key subsidiaries involved in the handling of sensitive information are either already ISO 27001 certified or are actively working towards being certified. Where the latter is the case, management is satisfied that relevant and necessary processes, systems and practices are already substantially in place.

With particular reference to customer-facing products, the Company operates a mix of its own technology and long-term partnerships with leading third-party providers (see the section titled “— Partnerships, Suppliers and Strategic Collaborations”), a flexible approach that is intended to increase speed to market and decrease friction associated with adjusting the technology stack to new markets.

In other non-customer-facing areas of technology, the Company may utilize the products and services of third-party suppliers, in particular where management does not believe that competitive advantage will be served by developing proprietary technology or where it might not be commercially prudent to do so. However, in areas where management believes that meaningful competitive advantage can be profitably achieved, the Company will seek to develop and maintain its own proprietary technology. Where systems are intended to deliver competitive advantage, the Company will seek to ensure interoperability with all of its product platforms, including those supplied by third parties. Some examples of this are highlighted below.

Overall, Super Group’s approach to technology can broadly be divided into three areas:

Customer-facing products and platforms

Super Group’s proprietary sportsbook product is offered by Betway in the majority of African countries in which the Company is licensed. With this notable exception, in most jurisdictions the major components of customer-facing sports betting and online casino gaming products are sourced from third-party suppliers. Notwithstanding this, the Company always seeks to be highly involved in the specification and customization of third-party product and generally works in close collaboration with all of its suppliers.

This is particularly true of the Company’s relationship with Apricot, which provides Betway’s bespoke-developed flagship sports betting system on an exclusive-use basis as well as the Player Account Management (“PAM”) system utilized for the majority of the Company’s operations. Apricot also provides a significant portion of the casino games offered by Betway and Spin (see the section titled “— Partnerships, Suppliers and Strategic Collaborations”).

Data and related systems

Super Group seeks to derive significant competitive advantage from its proprietary data by collecting granular detail regarding all steps in the customer lifecycle, always within the constraints of relevant data protection legislation. In particular, once customers commercially engage with one of the Company’s brands, then significant amounts of proprietary data regarding wagering and other product interactions will be collected and made available downstream for real-time analysis and decision-making.

Proprietary real-time systems transform and analyze this data in order to understand each individual customer experience within Super Group’s products. The Company utilizes this information (in real-time where appropriate) to maximize customer value and enjoyment in a safe and responsible manner. Dedicated customer experience teams aim to measure and monitor all points of interaction and all steps in the customer journey with the ultimate aim of minimizing friction and maximizing customers’ ease of use of the Company’s products.

The Company maintains a range of highly-engineered proprietary systems for the complex processing of millions of events per day in order to deliver bespoke customer experiences that react dynamically to individual customer behavior. Examples of real-time interventions generated in this way include:

•

Betting Behavior: The Company aims to monitor and analyze customer behavior in real-time with the intention of detecting unsustainable or potentially harmful deviations in betting behavior so that in turn the Company can attempt to intervene appropriately and timeously. In addition to being a requirement of regulatory responsible gaming obligations in several jurisdictions, the Company believes that interventions of this nature ultimately generate more satisfied and sustainable customers, improved retention rates, and longer customer lifecycles, thereby enhancing customer lifetime values.

•

Personalized Wagering Recommendations: Seeking to understand individual customer preferences and attributes in combination with machine learning and data science in turn generates personalized wagering recommendations that aim to remove user interface friction and increase customer satisfaction and enjoyment.

•

Individual Profitability Analysis and Personalized Incentivization: The Company employs statisticians and data scientists to model and validate the expected profitability of short-, medium- and long-term customer behavior with reference to a range of activities and metrics. The Company believes that these models enable it to profitably and responsibly incentivize and/or encourage (or discourage, as the case may be) specific behaviors, which the Company attempts to do in real-time. The Company believes that these models and associated interventions in aggregate form a significant competitive advantage that generates more satisfied and sustainable customers, improved retention rates, and longer customer lifecycles, thereby enhancing customer lifetime values.

•

Monitoring and Mitigation of Potentially Fraudulent Activities: Similar models and systems seek to identify potentially fraudulent or otherwise problematic activity in real-time and thereby aim to limit the potential financial harm and/or regulatory risk to the business.

For all of the above examples, the Company seeks to ensure that the relevant systems are capable of processing data from all of its product platforms, including those supplied by third parties, and that customer interactions and interventions can be executed on all of its product platforms, including those supplied by third parties.

The Company’s analysis and data science capabilities are also applied in the acquisition of new customers, for example, by adapting marketing and related campaigns for specific markets, channels and marketing partners. Where possible and in collaboration with third party marketing technology providers, the Company employs real-time bidding, spend and allocation optimization algorithms in conjunction with dynamic creative optimization and personalized messaging, all with the intention of reducing the cost of acquiring new customers.

Where possible the Company’s marketing spend is tracked and measured, with the aim of enabling the Company to react quickly to changes in the expected profitability of marketing channels. For large branding and

sponsorship campaigns, where lead times can be long and performance measurement is as much art as science, the Company’s annual marketing budgets and plans are optimized by reference to complex econometric models, cross-referenced and validated against proprietary and third-party data with the aim of optimizing efficiencies throughout the marketing funnel.

Budget proposals and other relevant expected operational factors are then fed into a detailed actuarial model of the business that projects expected financial results for Betway and Spin separately for all major markets. These results are then aggregated and evaluated to ensure the financial soundness of the Company’s plans under a range of potential scenarios. This model is updated regularly throughout the year for financial management and monitoring purposes and is also employed for audit and regulatory requirements.

Other enabling platforms and shared services

Over time, the Company has developed a wide range of proprietary systems for enabling the operational effectiveness of the business, including in the areas listed below. In all cases the Company aims to continuously evolve and improve its systems over time.

Acquisition Marketing Systems

Proprietary models in combination with third party systems and tools are maintained for the deployment, management, measurement and monitoring of customer acquisition campaigns across a variety of marketing channels (see “— Sales and Marketing”).

Responsible Gaming Systems

The Company has developed various systems with the intention of meeting the Company’s regulatory requirements for customer protection against risk of harm from gambling. Certain related products and systems provided by third-party suppliers are also integrated into the Company’s responsible gaming processes.

Customer Retention Systems

The Company maintains a number of proprietary systems aimed at ensuring the profitable retention of customers and also makes use of certain third-party systems and components as part of its customer retention processes. The Company believes that maximizing customer lifetime value over the long-term is only possible when responsible gaming principles are adhered to. Accordingly, customer retention systems are generally closely integrated with or otherwise share significant components with responsible gaming systems.

Messaging and Communications Systems

The Company believes that customer satisfaction is underpinned by an ability to deliver the right message to the right customer at the right time and has therefore developed proprietary software systems (some of which are integrated into third-party supplier systems) for messaging and communicating with customers in-app, in real-time, as well as other related systems for doing so by other mechanisms and at different times. These systems are crucial for the effective delivery of responsible gaming and retention interventions.

Banking and Finance Systems

A dedicated subsidiary is responsible for ensuring that the Company is able to offer customers a range of mechanisms for deposit and withdrawal of funds in each of the markets that the Company operates in. Currently, the Company offers well in excess of 100 different deposit and withdrawal mechanisms worldwide.

Related systems ensure that necessary financial data is made available downstream for financial management and reporting purposes. The Company develops and maintains automated reporting and reconciliation systems and processes to allow for the production of internal management accounts (including monthly unaudited financial statements produced separately for each entity in each jurisdiction) within a few weeks of month-end and audited financial statements within a few months of year-end.

Risk, Fraud and Compliance Systems

The Company encounters sophisticated attempts at fraud on a regular basis and is required to verify customers and their source of funds in accordance with varying regulations in each jurisdiction. Significant customer volumes (an average of more than 2.6 million customers per month over the six months ended June 30, 2022) mean that systems for the detection and prevention of attempted fraud and ensuring compliance with “know your customer” and anti-money laundering regulations must be substantially automated. In addition to rules-based systems that codify the Company’s 25 years of experience in combating fraud, managing risk and ensuring compliance, the Company also expends considerable effort in the development of new systems for this purpose, including the employment of machine learning and other data science techniques.

Managing Wagering Risk

The Company manages its own teams of experienced traders to set and maintain sports betting odds. These teams use their own expertise and internal pricing models in conjunction with external data feeds, odds monitoring services and various competitive factors to derive opening prices for each market. Thereafter, prices will be adjusted based on news events of relevance to the market, as well as wagers placed by customers and competitive forces. The Company cannot guarantee that it is capable of always offering the best price in all markets at all times, but continuously strives to remain competitive and offer customers attractive value for their money.

Various systems are deployed to measure and monitor the margin on the sportsbook, which is the percentage of wagers that the book is expected (in terms of the Company’s pricing models) to win on average over a particular period of time. Individual customer wagering is also closely monitored and alerts are raised for wagering activity considered unusual. In particular, evidence of potentially illegal or collusive behavior (such as suspicion of match-fixing) will be shared with the necessary legal and/or sporting authorities. Where appropriate, customers will be limited by reference to maximum wager size and/or wager type.

The Company’s products currently support wagering on more than 60 different sports, each of which in turn encompasses a wide range of events and outcomes that can be wagered on (also referred to as “betting markets”) both pre-game and in-game. The Company actively seeks to add additional betting markets, both for purposes of customer enjoyment and Company financial benefit, including diversification of risk, reduction of margin volatility and increased profitability.

For online casino games, the Company seeks to offer an entertaining range of games with value-for-money “return to player” (“RTP”) and (for slot games in particular) entertaining “volatility” (“Vx”) characteristics. RTP measures the expected return to customers as a percentage of wagers while Vx is a measure of the expected variance thereof. Most notably for slot games, customers have varying individual preferences for volatility and hence the Company attempts to recommend games to customers that are appropriate given their preferences. Game suppliers may offer games in multiple variants with differing combinations of RTP and Vx, in which case the Company seeks to ensure that it selects only those variants which it believes will optimize both value-for-money entertainment for its customers and long-term profitability for the Company.

A necessary requirement for successful management of wagering risk is appropriate control of customer incentivization. Without suitable systems and controls for customer incentives it is possible for wagering opportunities to arise that are mathematically unprofitable for the Company. Examples include arbitrage of sports wagers and situations where adroit betting with incentive funds can create expected RTP in excess of 100% for

casino games. The Company believes that optimal individual customer evaluation and incentivization (see paragraph “— Individual Profitability Analysis and Personalized Incentivization” in section titled “— Super Group’s Technology and Data-Driven Approach” above) will largely obviate this potential problem but, where this is not the case, the Company has many years of experience in detecting and preventing such situations and maintains a number of proprietary systems with the intention of doing so.

Partnerships, Suppliers and Strategic Collaborations

Super Group engages in long-term partnerships, including with leading third-party technology providers which, together with the Company’s own technology, increases the speed with which its offerings are brought to market and decreases the friction associated with adjusting its technology to new markets.

Relationship with Apricot

Super Group has entered into several software and services agreements with Apricot (and its affiliates and subsidiaries), one of the leading gaming software and content providers, including casino software licensing agreements, jackpot services and licensing agreements and sportsbook software licensing agreements. Through these agreements, SGHC engages members of the Apricot group for the provision of the Apricot group’s sportsbook and PAM software systems in a number of the Company’s most significant markets.

It is noted that Mr. Martin Moshal is the named individual beneficiary of certain trusts, which trusts are the ultimate controlling shareholders of Apricot and also the named individual beneficiary of a further trust that ultimately controls Knutsson Limited, a major shareholder of Super Group. A beneficiary of these trusts has neither any right to control or voting investment power over the trusts, nor does it have the right to appoint or replace the trustees.

Casino Software Licensing Agreements

Pursuant to various casino software licensing agreements entered into by subsidiaries of Super Group, Super Group has been granted non-exclusive software licenses for use of a suite of gaming software in different territories in which Super Group operates. Several of the agreements permit the advertising, marketing and promotion of the software suite in each respective territory and certain of the agreements allow for the licensee to sub-license the use of the system. As at October 21, 2022, subsidiaries of Super Group had entered into seven casino software licensing agreements with affiliates of Apricot.

The term and termination provisions of the casino software and licensing agreements are summarized as follows. The initial term of all casino software licensing agreements with Apricot expires on December 31, 2035. Under all these agreements, termination for convenience by either party is not possible until expiry of the initial term and then must be on not less than 12 months’ written notice, although one casino software licensing agreement with Apricot does not permit termination for convenience at all, allowing only for termination in accordance with its terms (as summarized in the remainder of this paragraph) after December 31, 2035. A party may also unilaterally terminate the relevant agreement in the event that the other party (a) breaches a material obligation or undertaking under such agreement and which, where such breach is capable of remedy, is not remedied within the specified timeframe to the reasonable satisfaction of the other party; or (b) suffers an insolvency event. In a number of the agreements, a party may terminate for change of control when control of the other party is obtained by a competitor. The Apricot company in the relevant agreement may unilaterally terminate such agreement in the event the relevant Super Group subsidiary (a) fails to pay monies to as they fall due under the agreement; (b) uses the software system illegally; (c) markets a branded game without Apricot’s consent; (d) fails to notify Apricot of a change in control of such party; (e) breaches non-solicitation, non-competition or data protection obligations; (f) is convicted (or any of its directors are convicted) of an offense in terms of any applicable gaming legislation or regulations, or of any crime or offense reasonably likely to cause reputational damage or damage to goodwill to Apricot; or (g) fails to procure the appropriate gaming license.

In a number of the agreements: (i) Apricot may terminate the agreement if the relevant Super Group subsidiary: (a) provides false or inaccurate information which has an adverse effect on Apricot; (b) accepts a real money bet from customers located outside the appropriate territory or within the USA; (c) fails to pay the minimum agreed gaming fee; (d) becomes a competitor to Apricot; or (e) fails to pay its players or depositors within the specified time period; (ii) Apricot may terminate the agreement if it becomes unlawful or impossible for Apricot to license, maintain or use the system, or a court or arbitrator declares any provision of the agreement void or unenforceable; and (iii) the relevant Super Group subsidiary may terminate the agreement if Apricot (or any of its directors) are convicted of an offense in terms of any applicable gaming legislation or regulations, or of any crime or offense reasonably likely to cause reputational damage or damage to goodwill of the other.

Jackpot Services and Licensing Agreements

Various subsidiaries of Super Group have entered into jackpot services and licensing agreements with Jumbo Jackpots Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Apricot. Pursuant to these jackpot services and licensing agreements, Jumbo Jackpots Limited grants non-exclusive licenses of trademarks (as supplied within the software, licensed through separate casino software licensing agreements) and provides services to enable the licensee to run jackpot games. As at October 21, 2022, subsidiaries of Super Group had entered into seven Jackpot Services and Licensing Agreements with Jumbo Jackpots Limited.

The term and termination provisions of the jackpot services are summarized as follows. All jackpot services and licensing agreements have an indefinite term, and do not permit termination for convenience, except for one agreement which permits termination by either party on two months’ written notice. All of these agreements permit either party to terminate immediately by written notice if a petition or resolution is passed for the winding up of the other party. The agreements also terminate automatically if the applicable Super Group subsidiary’s gaming license is withdrawn. Jumbo Jackpots Limited may terminate the agreement if any of the following events occur: (a) the other party commits a breach of the agreement and fails to remedy such breach within the specified time period; (b) the other party fails to pay sums as they fall due; (c) it becomes unlawful or impossible for Jumbo Jackpots Limited to license, maintain or use the relevant trademarks or provide the services under the agreement; (d) bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings are filed against the other party; (e) the other party can no longer perform its business activities or fulfil its commitments to Jumbo Jackpots Limited; or (f) the other party (or any other entity having common shareholders or control with that party) becomes a competitor to Jumbo Jackpots Limited. The counterparty may terminate the agreement with 14 days’ written notice if Jumbo Jackpots Limited raises the agreed service fee. In addition, each agreement automatically terminates on termination of the corresponding casino software licensing agreement between the Super Group subsidiary which is party to the relevant jackpot services and licensing agreement and Apricot or PNL or Kova (as defined below) as applicable, the termination provisions of which are summarized above.

Sportsbook Software Licensing Agreement

Through its subsidiary Betway Limited, Super Group engages in an agreement for the exclusive provision of Apricot’s sportsbook software in a number of Super Group’s most significant markets. This exclusive arrangement prevents Apricot from licensing its sportsbook software to any other customers in those jurisdictions, but does not prevent Super Group from utilizing its own or other suppliers’ sportsbook software where it chooses to do so. The agreement also permits the advertising, marketing and promotion of the software system in each respective territory.

The term and termination provisions of the sportsbook software licensing agreement are summarized as follows. The initial term of the sportsbook software licensing agreement expires on December 31, 2030. Under this agreement, termination for convenience by either party is not possible until expiry of such initial term and thereafter must be on not less than 180 days’ written notice. Betway Limited may also terminate the agreement for convenience after December 31, 2025 with at least 18 months’ written notice. The agreement also permits either party to terminate by written notice if: (a) the other party is in breach of the agreement and, where such breach is capable of remedy, fails to remedy such breach within 30 days of notice to the reasonable satisfaction

of the other party; (b) bankruptcy, insolvency or analogous proceedings are commenced against the other party; or (c) when control of the other party is obtained by a competitor (on 18 months’ written notice).

Super Group works closely with Apricot and its affiliates in the ongoing development of the sportsbook product and the PAM system and the customization thereof for Super Group’s needs. The Company has direct access to dedicated Apricot resources for this purpose and plays a meaningful role in the strategic direction and prioritization of these resources.

Apricot supplies a significant portion of the casino games available for play across all Super Group websites and apps. Other significant online casino gaming software suppliers contracted directly and indirectly include IGT, Scientific Gaming and Evolution (including NetEnt and Red Tiger).

Prima Networks Limited, Prima Networks Spain PLC and Kova SRL (“PNL/PNS/Kova”) similarly engage Apricot in agreements for the provision of Apricot’s casino and sportsbook software. PNL/PNS/Kova sublicenses the Apricot software to subsidiaries of Super Group, such as Betway. As of October 21, 2022, PNL/PNS/Kova had entered into eleven casino software licensing agreements and five sportsbook software licensing agreements with subsidiaries of Super Group.

The casino software licensing agreements and sportsbook licensing agreements entered into by subsidiaries of Super Group and PNL/PNS/Kova have term and termination rights which are materially similar to those applicable to the casino software licensing agreements and sportsbook licensing agreements with Apricot summarized above.

Other Partnerships, Suppliers and Strategic Collaborations

Super Group’s Betway brand has engaged in key relationships (most of them multi-year) with professional sports teams and leagues around the world, starting with front of shirt sponsorship of the English Premier League’s West Ham United in 2015. Subsequent partnerships have included several football (soccer) teams in other major European and African leagues, major horse racing events, eSports teams and events, major cricket leagues, tennis tournaments and sporting celebrities as brand ambassadors. Many of these arrangements have since been extended well beyond their original terms. Currently, more than 60 brand partnerships are in place with several more actively being negotiated.

Super Group has continued this strategy during Betway’s nascent expansion into the United States by engaging in similar partnerships with professional sports teams in the United States with global brand recognition, such as the Chicago Bulls, the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Los Angeles Clippers, the Golden State Warriors and the New York Islanders.

These arrangements all serve to bolster Betway’s global brand recognition. Management believes that over time this strategy has worked as a flywheel to progressively and more effectively amortize Betway’s brand marketing spend, in part explaining improvements in Betway’s growth and financial performance over recent years.

Super Group benefits from a number of long-established “affiliates” marketing partnerships (see “— Sales and Marketing”) that have historically generated a stable and significant stream of new customers.

Super Group enters into strategic, multi-year partnerships with land-based gaming operators in order to facilitate entry into markets where a land-based license or partner is prerequisite for market access. Examples include Casinos Austria International Belgium NV and Espectaculos Deportivos Fronton Mexico S.A de C.V, both for access to sports betting and online casino gaming, in Belgium and Mexico respectively.

Super Group enters into multi-year agreements with sports data suppliers for data to inform the Company’s odds making and sports trading activities, as well as for content for the Company’s websites and apps. Significant suppliers include SportRadar, Genius Sports, Perform Content Limited, and IMG. Key summaries of these agreements are described below.

100

SportRadar Agreements

SportRadar is a leading information supplier for sport related data and statistics as well as sophisticated technical solutions. We have agreements, including four statements of work (“SOW”), with SportRadar as part of a global deal, which includes the Managed Trading Services platform for Betway Africa. These SOWs provide that SportRadar will supply products and services for its sports betting and sportsbook operation globally to Betway Limited, who can sublicense its rights to its affiliates.

Genius Sports Agreements

Genius Sports is a provider of sportsbook data, content, analysis tools, software and related services to sports betting operators worldwide. We have agreements in place between Genius Sports and Betway Limited that allow Betway Limited and its affiliates to use Genius Sports services through a non-exclusive, non-transferable non-sublicensable right and license.

Perform Content Limited Agreements

Perform owns, operates and provides video and consumer data services to betting operators throughout the world. We have four agreements in place with Perform, each for a different product. Each agreement is between Perform and Betway Limited and each provide access to Super Group and its brand license partners, where appropriate.

IMG

IMG is in the business of distributing sports information, data and statistics to third parties. Under our data subscription agreement, IMG agrees to license certain of its content to Betway Limited and provide related technical support services. The content provided under the agreement includes the ATP World Tour, the WTA Tour, the French Open, Wimbledon and the U.S. Open. The agreement also includes the consumption of IMG UFC and Golf scoreboards and data as well as streaming services.

Sales and Marketing

Super Group’s marketing strategy is intended to resonate with customers and to help create a loyal and engaged customer base. Over 35% of GGR in H1 2021 was generated by customers acquired before 2020.

LOGO

101

The Company’s holistic approach to the marketing of its products encompasses two primary streams:

Traditional and brand marketing

This is the primary vector for marketing of the Betway brand.

Over time, the Betway brand has been developed with the assistance of expert branding agencies and a strategy has been developed for the consistent positioning of the brand worldwide. The Company engages the services of appropriate brand and marketing agencies around the world in order to execute this strategy in culturally-appropriate ways in the various jurisdictions and markets in which it operates.

Appropriate advertising is planned and executed in each market, utilizing all channels which the Company believes to be effective, including TV, radio, print and online. Positioning and messaging are intentionally simple and designed to resonate with the target market’s emotional connection with their favorite sports. Brand sponsorships and partnerships play an important role and are leveraged across the other channels where possible.

In some markets, where the expected returns from doing so are acceptable to management, similar traditional marketing channels are also employed for the larger Spin brands.

Super Group licenses the Betway brand, for a fee, for use by DGC USA in the United States and to a third-party operator for use in China, Vietnam and Thailand. This further serves to amortize global brand marketing spend.

Performance-based marketing

Super Group makes use of performance-based marketing channels across all of its brands and in all markets. The Company has developed a number of proprietary models, tools and monitoring mechanisms for measuring and predicting the performance of these channels so as to be able to scale marketing efforts up or down quickly and effectively, wherever possible by means of real-time algorithms. More than 150 people are employed by the Company in this area.

Such channels include:

App stores

Amongst other channels, the Company’s products are made available on mobile devices and via mobile app stores. A significant factor in the success of this channel is achieving high visibility and rankings in the organic (unpaid) app store listings. Equally important is effective customer acquisition by means of paid advertising within app stores, for which the Company has implemented bespoke real-time app store bidding models. The Company employs dedicated staff and third-party specialist App Store Optimization (“ASO”) agencies with the aim of optimizing its results in this area.

Organic social media

Social media is an important channel for reaching and engaging with customers, particularly for Betway given the extended audience that is created by the brand’s partnerships with sports teams and leagues around the globe. The Company employs dedicated staff (centrally and locally within key markets) and also utilizes third-party social media agencies. The Company also engages with social media influencers and brand ambassadors to represent the Company on social media.

102

Paid social media

Paid social media marketing campaigns form a key part of acquisition and retention marketing strategies. Contextually relevant messaging to prospective and existing customers in support of organic social media marketing is enabled by myriad targeting options coupled with deep integrations with social media sites and is aimed at building both awareness of and consideration for the Company’s brands.

Search engine marketing and brand protection

Search engine marketing (SEM) involves the purchase and performance optimization of relevant keywords in order to acquire new customers. Brand protection ensures that customers searching for Super Group brands on search engines are not diverted to competitors. The Company employs dedicated staff in this area and also engages third-party agencies where necessary.

Search engine optimization

Search engine optimization (SEO) involves the optimization of Company websites to improve the organic rankings of the Company’s brands on major search engines. The Company employs dedicated staff to monitor all brands’ performance against all major keywords and thereafter to adjust Company websites to optimize performance.

Display advertising and other forms of online performance marketing

The Company undertakes various forms of online marketing, including advertising directly or via advertising networks on third-party websites and in third-party apps.

“Affiliates” marketing

“Affiliates” is an industry term that describes independent third-party marketers which assist the Company to acquire new customers and which are generally paid on a revenue-share or cost-per-acquisition basis. Despite the word “affiliate”, these are independent parties that are not otherwise affiliated with the Company in the ordinary sense of the word.

Scaling this marketing channel is often difficult due to competitive pricing and the difficulty of predicting whether past performance by independent third parties will continue into the future. The Company benefits from a number of stable long-term partnerships with several of the larger and more reliable “affiliates” and management believes that the Company possesses suitable experience and expertise to continue to perform well in this area.

Competition

Sports betting and online casino gaming are competitive businesses, with numerous competitor brands operating alongside Super Group brands in most markets. Outside of jurisdictions where the number of operators is explicitly restricted by regulatory constraints, the nature of the business largely precludes the formation of monopolies or even oligopolies, not least due to the ease of product substitution by consumers and frequently high levels of price competition.

On a global level, the Company considers its most direct and relevant competitors to be the various brands of Flutter and Entain, as well as bet365, 888 and several more. Within individual jurisdictions or regions, there are often also significant competitors considered relevant by the Company who are otherwise unknown outside of that specific jurisdiction or region. In some instances, the Company also faces competition from national or regional government-owned operators.

103

Land-based competitors are also of significant relevance to the Company in certain geographies owing to the additional entertainment attractions of such businesses and their often strong local or regional brands. Many of these businesses have historically been slow to move their offerings online, but in recent years this trend has accelerated and competition from such businesses is expected to increase further.

Alternative product categories also serve as competition for customer wallet share, most notably lotteries and casual or social games. For example, “daily fantasy” (a variant of fantasy sports leagues) is an entertaining alternative to sports betting, casino-style games are a major category on Facebook and in the Apple and Android app stores, and elements of casino gambling have increasingly found their way into top ranking non-gambling games.

In most jurisdictions or regions, Super Group competes alongside at least one of the global competitors referenced above. As more markets regulate over time, additional competitors are expected to enter the market. There is typically a significant degree of overlap with competitor offerings with regards to sports events and wager types available for customers to bet on. Similarly, casino game offerings typically overlap significantly as most game providers license the majority of their games to all operators (occasionally specific games might be exclusive to a single operator, but rarely is this the case for an extended period and/or for games that generate significant revenue).

The principal differentiating factors common to both online sports betting and online casino gaming include the global reach and scale of the business, global branding, advertising and marketing effectiveness, reliability of products and services, breadth and depth of proprietary data science and technology, accurate customer evaluation, meaningful responsible gaming initiatives and related interactions, innovative and effective customer incentives, speed and relevance of customer communication, speed and reliability of deposit and withdrawal mechanisms, ease-of-use of customer-facing software, quality of customer service and an asset-light globally-amortized business model.

Principal differentiating factors specific to online sports betting include breadth and depth of sports events and betting markets offered, ease-of-use of the wagering interface, odds pricing, speed and reliability of bet settlement, extent and value of sports-related partnerships, and ability to engage customers around their favorite sports and events.

Principal differentiating factors specific to online casino gaming include breadth and depth of game offering, value-for-money games, active management of game lifecycle including regular new game launches, and, particularly given the large number of casino games available, effective game discovery mechanisms.

Management believes that Super Group’s products, services, experience, expertise and corporate culture allow it to compete effectively across all of these factors.

Seasonality

Super Group’s sport-focused Betway offerings trade in many major markets in both hemispheres and hence benefit from the year-round sporting calendar. Different sporting leagues and events are relatively more or less important in different markets and hence the business benefits from a natural degree of diversification. Sporting events of all sorts take place every day around the world in multiple time zones and, particularly with the advent of virtual sports and eSports, events are available for wagering at all times of the day year-round.

Sports betting is however subject to seasonal fluctuations that may impact revenues and cash flows. Most major sporting leagues and events do not operate year-round and hence Super Group’s operations will be impacted by variations in the sporting calendar over the course of a year. In particular, certain sports leagues operate formats (playoffs, championships, cup finals, etc.) that naturally result in increased customer interest as the end of the season approaches for those sports. Similarly, certain sporting events only operate at specific times of the year (major horse races, major tennis tournaments, etc.) and certain other events only operate on a multi-year cycle (Olympics, FIFA World Cup, etc.).

104

These phenomena will naturally lead to increased revenues at such times of the year or in major international tournament years, and conversely will result in reduced revenues during off-season periods or in non-tournament years.

For example, Betway’s revenues are often impacted by the calendars of the major European and African football (soccer) leagues, international and Indian Premier League cricket, major American sports leagues, marquee horse racing events, major professional tennis tournaments and the FIFA World Cup. The Company naturally seeks to adapt marketing efforts accordingly, taking advantage of additional opportunities for profitable growth whenever they present while mitigating potentially negative effects on profits by adjusting marketing appropriately in off-season periods.

In contrast, the Spin portfolio of casino brands is largely unaffected by seasonality in aggregate as online casino gaming is largely an individual activity unaffected by external calendars. Management believes that there is however some evidence that seasonality effects may occur at the time of certain major national holidays and/or vacation periods and hence it may occur that Super Group’s revenues and cashflow might be adversely affected during times of year when customers are naturally more likely to engage with other non-gaming activities.

Intellectual Property

Intellectual property rights are important to the success of Super Group’s business. Super Group relies on a combination of trademark, trade secret, database, copyright, confidentiality and other intellectual property protection laws in the United Kingdom, the European Union, the United States and other jurisdictions, as well as license agreements, confidentiality procedures, non-disclosure agreements with third parties and other contractual protections, to protect its intellectual property rights, including its trademarks, database, proprietary technology, software, know-how and copyright. In certain foreign jurisdictions and in the United States, Super Group has filed trademark applications, currently holds numerous trademarks and domain names, and in the future is likely to acquire additional trademarks and domain names. Super Group has also entered into license agreements, data rights agreements and other arrangements with sports organizations and sports data suppliers for rights to utilize their sports data, of which durations vary but typically are at least annual in duration and are subject to renewal or extension.

As an online business with a customer-facing offering, Super Group’s trademark and domain name portfolios are of particular importance to it. As of October 24, 2022, the Company owned nine trademark registrations and applications in the United States and 606 trademark registrations and applications in various non-U.S. jurisdictions. Super Group’s two main brands, namely Betway and Spin, enjoy extensive geographic coverage, with the Betway marks being registered (or applied for) in the U.S. and in 63 other countries; and the Spin Brands marks being registered (or applied for) in 38 countries. As of October 24, 2022, the Company owns approximately 11,400 domain-names.

It has not always been possible, and may not be, or commercially desirable to obtain registered protection for Super Group’s products, software, databases or other technology. In such situations, the Company relies on laws governing protection of unregistered intellectual property rights, confidentiality and/or contractual arrangements to prevent unauthorized use by third parties. Super Group uses open-source software in its services and periodically reviews its use of open-source software to attempt to avoid subjecting its services and product offerings to conditions it does not intend.

While a portion of the intellectual property that Super Group uses is created by the Company, including its sportsbook offering in certain African countries, the Company has also obtained rights to use intellectual property of third parties through licenses and service agreements with those third parties. By way of example, Super Group has a wide range of sponsorship and other agreements with significant teams and sports organizations spanning a variety of sports, including West Ham United, the Chicago Bulls, the Miami Open Tennis Tournament, G2 Esports and numerous others. In all, there are more than 60 Betway brand partnerships

105

currently in effect. Although the Company believes that these licenses are sufficient for the operation of the business, these licenses typically limit the Company’s use of the third parties’ intellectual property to specific uses and for specific time-periods.

Super Group controls access to and use of its data, database, proprietary technology and other confidential information through the use of internal and external controls, including contractual protections with employees, contractors, customers and partners. The Company requires its employees, consultants and other third parties to enter into confidentiality and proprietary rights agreements and it controls and monitors access to its data, database, software, documentation, proprietary technology and other confidential information. Super Group’s policy is to require all employees and independent contractors to sign agreements assigning to it any inventions, trade secrets, works of authorship, developments, processes and other intellectual property generated by them on the Company’s behalf and under which they agree to protect the Company’s confidential information. In addition, the Company generally enters into confidentiality agreements with its partners.

See “Risk Factors — Intellectual Property and Data Privacy Risks — Failure to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, the confidentiality of our trade secrets and confidential information, or the costs involved in protecting or enforcing our intellectual property rights and confidential information, could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations”, “Risk Factors — Intellectual Property and Data Privacy Risks — Our collection, storage and use, including sharing and international transfers, of personal data are subject to applicable data protection and privacy laws, and any actual or perceived failure to comply with such laws may harm our reputation and business or expose us to fines, civil claims (including class actions), and other enforcement action. The protection of personal information is becoming increasingly regulated and changes in applicable laws may require changes to our policies, practices, procedures and personnel which may require material expenditures and harm our financial condition and results of operations^” and other risk factors related to Super Group’s intellectual property included in “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Super Group’s Business” for a more comprehensive description of risks related to Super Group’s intellectual property.

Government Regulation

Super Group is subject to various laws and regulations that affect its ability to operate in the sports betting and online casino industries, which are subject to extensive and evolving local laws and regulations that may change based on political and social norms.

The gaming industry is highly regulated and in jurisdictions where required in order to maintain licenses, the Company pays gaming taxes and other fees in order to continue its licensed operations. The licensing requirements generally concern the responsibility, financial stability, integrity and character of the applicant and relevant individuals and group affiliates, along with the integrity and security of the casino and sports betting product offerings. Violations of any laws or regulations in one jurisdiction could result in disciplinary action or other consequences in other jurisdictions.

While Super Group believes that it is in compliance, in all material respects, with all applicable sports betting and casino laws, licenses and regulatory requirements, the Company is aware that other interpretations of such requirements exist and cannot ensure that its activities or the activities of its affiliates will not become the subject of any regulatory or law enforcement, investigative or other governmental action or proceeding or that any such proceeding or action would not have a material adverse impact on the Company or its business, financial condition or operations.

In order to operate in certain jurisdictions (including U.S. states), Super Group must obtain the appropriate licensure as required under local legislation. Generally, each relevant group company and at times certain directors, officers, employees and material shareholders (typically those holding 5% or more of equity — but not limited to that threshold of holdings nor limited to solely holding equity), would be required to qualify as suitable for a license to be awarded. Suitability is highly discretionary, but is generally considered by gaming authorities by weighing (i) financial stability, integrity and responsibility; (ii) quality and security of the gaming platform,

106

hardware and software; (iii) general history and background; and (iv) social responsibility. Most gambling authorities have the authority to weigh additional factors and require any documentation or information they deem necessary. The failure of Super Group’s officers, directors and holders of its Ordinary Shares to submit to background checks and provide any requested disclosure could result in the imposition of penalties and could jeopardize the award of a contract to the Company or provide grounds for termination of an existing contract. Generally, any person or entity who fails or refuses to apply for a finding of suitability or a license within the prescribed period after being advised by a competent authority that such person or entity is required to do so may be found unsuitable or denied a license, as applicable. If any director, officer, employee or significant shareholder is found unsuitable (including due to the failure to submit required documentation) by a competent regulator or authority, Super Group may deem it necessary, or be required, to sever its relationship with such person or entity.

Gaming and enforcement authorities typically have a broad scope of powers. They may deny an application for a license, condition, revoke or suspend any license issued by them, impose fines and at times, in serious cases, liaise with local prosecutors to pursue legal action, which may result in civil or criminal penalties. Aside from action against a company, gaming and enforcement authorities also have the power to hold accountable associated individuals (such as officers or directors), suspend or revoke a personal license, issue a fine directly against such an individual, disapprove changes to corporate positions and material shareholding, and even incarcerate individuals. Any individual who is required by a gambling authority to make disclosures, file application forms or otherwise provide information and who fails to do so, will generally be denied licensure or be found unsuitable. The license holder may also be subject to disciplinary action or adverse implications to the license due to this.

Super Group currently benefits from licenses for its online sports betting and online casino products in various jurisdictions in Europe, Africa and the Americas, such as, but not limited to, Belgium, France, Great Britain, Portugal, Alderney, Spain, Germany, Malta, South Africa, Zambia and the Mohawk Territory of Kahnawake. In addition, the Company has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire DGC, subject to certain regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. DGC USA has secured market access in up to an initial 12 regulated or expected-to-be regulated states in the U.S.

Super Group’s sports betting and casino licensure and operations requires it to comply with legal and regulatory requirements to which it is subject and which are constantly evolving. These regulatory requirements include (among others):

•

Responsible gaming requirements, including proactive intervention with customers concerning potentially problematic gaming habits and providing tools and help for customers and monitoring customer activity,

•

Verifying that the Company’s customers are of the required legal age,

•

Verifying the identity of the Company’s customers,

•

Ensuring that funds used by the Company’s customers are legitimately derived,

•

Implementing geolocation blocking where required, and

•

Data protection and privacy legislation and regulation.

While Super Group is wholly committed to complying with all applicable regulations and has in place processes and procedures dedicated to these requirements, which are constantly evolving, the Company cannot assure the prevention of a violation of one or more laws or regulations, or that an actual or alleged violation by the Company or an employee will not result in the imposition of a monetary fine or suspension or revocation of one or more of the Company’s licenses.

While Super Group is required to maintain licenses in each jurisdiction from which it operates in order to continue its operations, the Company’s offering into certain jurisdictions on the basis of its licenses is at times

107

based on a lack of a local regulatory framework in that jurisdiction where the Company’s services are accessed and used by customers, or based on a specific legal position and/or interpretation of local legislation. The latter, at times, may include a legal position based on EU law or supranational law. As gaming laws may be subject to alternate interpretations, including regarding their conformity with EU or supranational law, there is a risk that the Company’s interpretation would be contested by a government agency or regulator and its legal position ultimately rejected, which may result in administrative, civil or criminal penalties.

Data Privacy Regulations and PCI DSS

Laws, regulations, rules and standards in many jurisdictions apply broadly to the collection, use, retention, security, disclosure, transfer and other processing of personal data, which impose significant compliance obligations. The nature of these obligations often varies significantly by jurisdiction.

For example, in the EEA, the processing of personal data is principally governed by the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). Furthermore, notwithstanding the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union, by operation of the so-called ‘UK GDPR’ (i.e., the GDPR as it continues to form part of the law of the United Kingdom by virtue of section 3 of the EU (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and as subsequently amended) (“UK GDPR”) the GDPR continues to apply in substantially equivalent form to processing operations carried out in the context of an establishment in the United Kingdom and any processing relating to the offering of goods or services to individuals in the United Kingdom and/or monitoring of their behavior in the United Kingdom. Therefore, reference to the GDPR herein, also refers to the UK GDPR in the context of the United Kingdom, unless the context requires otherwise. The GDPR applies to any processing operations carried out in the context of an establishment in the EEA as well as any processing operations relating to the offering of goods or services to individuals in the EEA and/or the monitoring of their behavior in the EEA. The GDPR imposes many onerous obligations, including stringent requirements relating to the consent of data subjects in certain circumstances, expanded disclosures about how personal data is used, requirements to respect enhanced data subject rights in certain circumstances, requirements to conduct privacy impact assessments for “high risk” processing, limitations on retention of personal data, mandatory data breach notification and “privacy by design” requirements. The GDPR also imposes strict rules on the transfer of personal data outside of the EEA or United Kingdom to countries that have not been judged to ensure an adequate level of protection for personal data, like the U.S. Such transfers of personal data require the use of a valid “transfer mechanism” and, in many cases, the implementation of supplementary technical, organizational and/or contractual measures. In addition, the GDPR provides that EEA member states may introduce specific requirements related to the processing of “special categories of personal data”; as well as personal data related to criminal offenses or convictions. In the United Kingdom, the UK Data Protection Act 2018 complements the UK GDPR in this regard. This fact may lead to greater divergence on the law that applies to the processing of such personal data across the EEA and/or United Kingdom.

In the United States, the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Commerce continue to call for greater regulation of the collection of personal data, as well as restrictions for certain targeted advertising practices. Numerous states have enacted or are in the process of enacting state level data privacy laws and regulations governing the collection, use and processing of state residents’ personal data. For example, the CCPA went into effect in California on January 1, 2020. The CCPA establishes a new privacy framework for covered businesses and requires specific data processing practices and policies. In November 2020, California voters passed the California Privacy Rights and Enforcement Act of 2020, which further expands the CCPA with additional data privacy compliance requirements and establishes a regulatory agency dedicated to enforcing those requirements. In addition, privacy- and security-related laws have been passed in other jurisdictions including New York, Virginia and Colorado. These and other data protection and privacy laws and their interpretations continue to develop and may be inconsistent from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Certain of these laws may be more stringent or broader in scope, or offer greater individual rights, with respect to sensitive and personal information than federal, international or other state laws.

108

Given the breadth and depth of changes in relevant data protection obligations and regulatory frameworks, achieving and maintaining compliance with applicable data protection laws and regulations will require significant time, resources and expense, and Super Group may be required to put in place new or additional mechanisms to ensure compliance with current, evolving and new data protection requirements. Actual or perceived failure to comply with relevant data protection obligations and regulatory frameworks could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s reputation, business, or financial condition, and could lead to a loss of actual or prospective customers, collaborators or partners, result in an inability to process personal data or to operate in certain jurisdictions, limit the Company’s ability to develop or commercialize current or prospective offerings or services, or require it to revise or restructure its operations.

See “Risk Factors — Intellectual Property and Data Privacy Risks — Our collection, storage and use, including sharing and international transfers, of personal data are subject to applicable data protection and privacy laws, and any actual or perceived failure to comply with such laws may harm our reputation and business or expose us to fines, civil claims (including class actions), and other enforcement action. The protection of personal information is becoming increasingly regulated and changes in applicable laws may require changes to our policies, practices, procedures and personnel which may require material expenditures and harm our financial condition and results of operations.” and “Risk Factors — Intellectual Property and Data Privacy Risks — Our processing of cardholder data is subject, in addition to data protection and privacy laws, to strict industry standards and security procedures. Compliance with the requirements to process cardholder data can be onerous and may require the implementation of new procedures, policies and security measures or the amendment of existing ones which may require material expenditures and harm our financial condition and results of operations. Any actual or perceived failure to comply may result in the inability to process payments, monetary penalties and reputational damages which may require material expenditures and harm our financial condition and results of operations.” for a more comprehensive description of risks related to data privacy requirements and PCI DSS.

Human Capital Resources

Super Group and its subsidiaries currently manage approximately 3,800 staff with employees and contractors located in 18 countries. 93% of employees are permanently employed and the remainder are contractors.

The Company believes that its staff are adequately dispersed geographically for purposes of reducing geopolitical risks that the Company would otherwise be more exposed to if its operations were more highly centralized. The Company utilizes some of its offices as off-site data backup locations for each other and has contingency plans in place for the rapid relocation of necessary staff to alternate Company locations in the case of natural or other disasters. During the period in which the Company’s operating locations were impacted by Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns and other restrictions, the Company did not experience any operational disruptions as all staff were able to work from home.

109

The Company operates a performance-oriented culture that emphasizes personal growth and effective delivery of objectives within the context of corporate strategy and goals. Performance management processes avoid explicit Key Performance Indicators (which management believes to be too easily gamed and generally ineffective for technology-focused activities) and focus instead on desired values and behaviors (an approach which management believes is much harder to game and more effective at reinforcing Super Group’s corporate culture and effectiveness). Examples of how this approach is applied in practice include the assessment of individual staff members with reference to their effectiveness, commitment and level of initiative.

The Company maintains a steady pipeline of home-grown customer-focused management talent by exposing the majority of new hires to customer-facing roles that provide a comprehensive introduction to the workings of many of the Company’s systems and how they meet the needs of the customer. It is not uncommon for senior management roles to be occupied by staff who have graduated from this environment and who thereby benefit from a broad understanding of the major areas of the business and how the needs of the customer impact on each area.

Where specific skills or expertise are unavailable internally the Company will hire externally and typically seeks to offer compensation packages that compare well with other employment opportunities, including non-gambling technology companies.

The Company expends considerable effort ensuring that all staff understand the Company’s vision and culture and that all staff are held accountable to upholding the Company’s values. Regular staff engagement together with ongoing training programs and values-based performance feedback mechanisms seek to ensure that high standards are maintained. In particular, quality of customer service, data security and responsible gaming principles are emphasized regularly and repeatedly.

HR professionals are embedded throughout the business, operating in partnership with all levels of management to identify and surface potential performance problems faster than would otherwise be the case. HR professionals are expected to understand the commercial and operational details of the business as if they were employed directly in those areas and are thereby expected to assist managers with both their personal growth and the effectiveness and strategic development of their teams.

The Company believes that the above-mentioned are some of the reasons why the Company benefits from low staff turnover and significant loyalty from its staff, including over 250 employees who have been employed within the Group for more than 10 years and 36 employees who have been employed with the Group for more than 20 years, of which one has been employed with the Group for 25 years.

None of the Company’s employees are represented by a labor union. The Company has not experienced any work stoppages, and generally considers its relations with employees to be good.

Company Facilities

Super Group’s principal executive office is located in Bordeaux Court, Les Echelons, St. Peter Port, Guernsey, GY1 1AR. Super Group’s primary facilities located in Guernsey, Malta, South Africa and the United Kingdom are used primarily for sports trading, management, technology, commercial/sales and marketing, finance, legal, and human resources teams. Worldwide the Company leases approximately 335,000 square feet of office space. On September 16, 2022, the Group entered into an agreement to lease with approximately €70 million of commitments, which had not commenced as of June 30, 2022, and as such, has not been recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position. The agreement has a lease term of 15 years beginning in April 2025, with planned leasehold improvements to be completed prior to the beginning of the lease period. As of the date of reporting, the Company has not obtained access to the property and thus no material leasehold improvements have been completed.

The Company believes that its facilities are adequate to meet its needs for the immediate future and that suitable additional space will be procured to accommodate any expansion of its operations as needed.

110

Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, Super Group is involved in various pending litigation relating to its operations. The Company is not currently involved in any material pending regulatory actions.

As regards pending litigation, the Company is currently involved in the following material legal proceedings.

Germany

On April 14, 2020, Bayton Limited initiated proceedings in the Administrative Court Darmstadt, Hessen against a prohibition order issued in February 2020 against its online sports betting operations in several German federal states (Baden-Wurttemberg, Bayern, Bremen, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, North-Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland Palatinate, Saarland, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Schleswig-Holstein, Thuringia and Hessen). The main claim proceedings are pending in the first instance.

On April 22, 2022, a historical customer, Jorg Blechschmidt issued a claim against Bayton Limited at the District Court of Zwichau for EUR 435,200 on the basis that gambling was illegal in Germany at the time of gameplay. On July 1, 2022, the Defence was filed, arguing that the player was himself violating the criminal law by participating in unlicensed gambling and further that the losses were not caused by Bayton Limited not holding a license, as the losses would have been made even if a valid license was in place.

On December 21, 2020, a historical customer, Sascha Frick filed a claim against Betway Limited in the Ravensburg Regional Court in Germany for legal aid to bring a claim for €201,068.34, on the basis that gambling is illegal in Germany.

On March 18, 2022, Betway Limited filed a claim at the Administrative court Darmstadt, Hesse, against the administrative decision of 18th February 2022 which amended its sports betting license by restricting the sports betting program to bets appearing on the lists published on the regulator’s website. The effect of the amendment would be that no bets other than those appearing on such lists could be offered. A separate claim was issued regarding the procedure for permission to offer additional bets not included in the published lists (as set out in the administrative decision of May 18, 2022), which has been merged into the same claim. On June 8, 2022, the Administrative court Darmstadt ordered the Darmstadt Regional Council, State of Hesse not to enforce the amendment notices until a first instance decision was made in the preliminary application for the suspensive effect of the main claim. The main claim is pending.

Czech Republic

On January 15, 2021, Bayton Limited initiated proceedings at the Czech Supreme Administrative Court against the fine issued against it by the Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic for CZK 30 million, for

On May 10, 2022, the appeal was rejected at the Administrative Court. Betway Limited submitted an appeal at the Court of Appeal on June 14, 2022.

Malta

On April 9, 2021, Betway Limited filed a main claim against several conditions of the sports betting license granted to it on March 9, 2021 (inter alia the bonus restrictions) as well as a preliminary application for the ordering of the suspensive effect of the main claim. The decision in the main proceedings is still pending in the first instance. On December 22, 2021, at first instance, the application for the suspensive effect of the main claim was dismissed. On January 5, 2022, Betway Limited filed a complaint against the first instance decision which is still pending.

See Note 22, “Commitments and Contingencies” to Super Group’s consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere herein. If accruals are not appropriate, the Company further evaluates each legal proceeding to assess whether an estimate of the possible loss or range of possible losses can be made.

In the future, Super Group may be subject to additional legal proceedings, the scope and severity of which is unknown and which could adversely affect its business. See “Risk Factors — Litigation and Regulatory Risks — We are party to pending litigation and regulatory and tax audits in various jurisdictions and with various plaintiffs and we may be subject to future litigation and regulatory and tax audits in the operation of our business. An adverse outcome in one or more proceedings could adversely affect our business.” In addition, from time to time, others may assert claims against Super Group and the Company may assert claims and legal proceedings against other parties, including in the form of letters and other forms of communication.

The results of any current or future legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and, regardless of the outcome, can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For purposes of this section, “Super Group Holding Company,” “Super Group,” “SGHC,” “we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company” refer to the Company and all of its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, unless the context otherwise requires. Super Group (SGHC) Limited is the new combined company in connection with the Business Combination, in which shareholders of SGHC and SEAC exchanged their shares for shares in Super Group (SGHC) Limited.

The following discussion includes information that Super Group’s management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of Super Group’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Super Group and its wholly-owned subsidiaries became wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, and Super Group comprises the operations of the Company. References to Super Group or SGHC in the following discussion shall be synonymous with references to the Company following the Business Combination.

The discussion should be read together with the historical audited annual consolidated financial statements of Super Group and its subsidiaries, and the related notes thereto, included in this prospectus. The discussion should also be read together with Super Group’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022 and for the six month ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related respective notes thereto, included elsewhere in this proxy statement prospectus. The discussion and review should also be read together with the Company’s unaudited pro forma financial information for the year ended December 31, 2021. See “Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”

This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Super Group’s actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed in the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Certain figures, such as interest rates and other percentages, included in this section have been rounded for ease of presentation. Percentage figures included in this section have not in all cases been calculated on the basis of such rounded figures but on the basis of such amounts prior to rounding. For this reason, percentage amounts in this section may vary slightly from those obtained by performing the same calculations using the figures in Super Group’s consolidated financial statements or in the associated text. Certain other amounts that appear in this section may similarly not sum due to rounding.

Overview

Expanding its global footprint into as many commercially feasible regulated markets as possible in order to engage with as many customers as it can possibly reach;

Increasing awareness of its brands through strategic partnerships and coordinated sponsorship and marketing campaigns; and

Utilizing enhanced proprietary data to optimize the confluence of ethical corporate culture, responsible gaming values, value-for-money product offerings and customer-centric service delivery.

SGHC Limited was incorporated in July 2020. On October 7, 2021, it became the ultimate holding company for a group of companies through a subsequent reorganization of entities with common ownership. Super Group

119

(SGHC) Limited, the parent company of SGHC Limited effective immediately following the Closing, was incorporated on March 29, 2021. The first entity to form part of the reorganization was Pindus Holdings Limited (“Pindus”) and its subsidiaries. Pindus was incorporated on May 16, 2018, and subsequently acquired Kavachi Holdings Limited, the latter being the legal entity that houses the business known as Betway. Pindus is the acquiring entity for the purposes of this reorganization.

Fengari Holdings Limited (“Fengari”) was incorporated on July 26, 2019. On July 31, 2019, Fengari acquired City Views Limited (parent of the trading companies within that group) for a cash consideration, from which point Fengari was incorporated under SGHC. On October 7, 2020, Fengari became a subsidiary of Super Group as part of the reorganization.

Pelion Holdings Limited (“Pelion”) was incorporated as a holding company on April 1, 2020, and shortly thereafter, on May 4, 2020, acquired Lanester Investments Limited (parent of the trading companies within that group (“City Views”)) for a cash consideration. At the time of the incorporation of Pelion the ownership structure was identical to that of Super Group and Pelion was consequently incorporated under Super Group on October 7, 2020, as part of the reorganization. Fengari and Pelion and their subsidiaries are also collectively referred to as Spin.

On September 30, 2020, Pindus purchased 100% of the issued share capital of Yakira Limited (“Yakira”) and Gazelle Management Holdings Limited (“Gazelle”). Yakira and Gazelle and their subsidiaries are entities to which the Betway brand had been licensed for trading in a number of jurisdictions.

Following the conclusion of the reorganization and transactions stated above, Super Group now comprises Pindus, Yakira, Gazelle and Raging River Trading Proprietary Limited (“Raging River”) (collectively analogous with / known as Betway) and Fengari and Pelion (collectively analogous with / known as Spin).

As of the date of this prospectus, Super Group subsidiaries are licensed in over 20 jurisdictions (not including DGC USA’s market access deals in the United States) and manage approximately 3,800 employees. Over the six months ended June 30, 2022, on average, over 2.6 million customers per month have yielded in excess of €2.5 billion in wagers per month. During the period from January 1, 2022 to June 30, 2022, total wagers amounted to €15.6 billion. Super Group’s business generated €655 million on a pro forma consolidated basis of net gaming revenue between January 1, 2022 and June 30, 2022 in different geographic regions, including the Americas, Europe, Africa and the rest of the world, such regions accounting for approximately 46%, 10%, 20% and 24%, respectively, of Super Group’s total revenue in 2022. Over the twelve months of 2021, on average, over 2.8 million customers per month have yielded in excess of €3.2 billion in wagers per month. During the period January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021, total wagers amounted to €38 billion. Super Group’s business generated €1.26 billion ($1.48 billion) on a pro forma consolidated basis of net gaming revenue between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2021 in different geographic regions, including the Americas, Europe, Africa and the rest of the world, such regions accounting for approximately 47%, 11%, 17% and 25%, respectively, of Super Group’s total revenue in 2021.

On January 27, 2022 (the “Closing date”) the Company completed the merger pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”) dated April 23, 2021, by and among itself SGHC, the Company, Sports Entertainment Acquisition Corp (“SEAC”), a New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) publicly traded special purpose acquisition company based in the United States, Super Group Holding Company Merger Sub, Inc (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, which resulted in the public listing of the Group, described in this section and in note 4 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Prior to the Closing date, SGHC shareholders (Pre-Closing Holders) exchanged all issued shares in SGHC for newly issued shares in the Company at an agreed ratio. This ratio resulted in each individual SGHC shareholder

120

maintaining the same ownership percentage in the Company as each shareholder had in SGHC. The transaction was accounted for as a capital reorganization because the Company did not meet the definition of a business under IFRS 3 Business Combinations prior to the capital reorganization. Under a capital reorganization, the consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect the net assets transferred at pre-combination predecessor book values. Following the capital reorganization, SGHC is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

On the Closing date, SEAC merged with and into Merger Sub, with SEAC as the surviving company continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and at the effective time of the merger, each share of Class A common stock of SEAC was cancelled and extinguished and converted into the right to receive one ordinary share of no par value of the Company.

What Super Group Does

Super Group’s global online sports betting and casino gaming services are delivered to customers by way of two primary product offerings:

•

Betway, a single-brand premier online sports betting offering, and

•

Spin, a multi-brand online casino offering.

Betway is Super Group’s single-brand online sports betting offering with a global footprint derived from licenses to operate throughout Europe, the Americas and Africa. The brand is sports-led but also offers casino games. Betway seeks to continue to grow brand awareness, including through an expanding portfolio of partnerships and collaborations with sports teams and leagues worldwide. As of the date of this prospectus, Betway has more than 60 such arrangements and is actively negotiating for further expansion.

Spin is Super Group’s multi-brand online casino offering. Spin’s diverse portfolio of more than 20 casino brands is designed to be culturally relevant across the globe while aiming to offer a wide range of casino products. Spin seeks to achieve growth through a broad range of targeted marketing channels in which SGHC believes an expansive brand portfolio to be a significant asset.

SGHC aims to further expand its global footprint through the acquisition of Digital Gaming Corporation Limited (“DGC”), which is the parent of Digital Gaming Corporation USA (“DGC USA”), which holds the exclusive license to use the Betway brand in the United States. On April 7, 2021, SGHC entered into a definitive agreement to acquire DGC, subject to certain regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. This transaction is expected to close by the end of 2022. DGC USA has already secured market access in up to an initial 12 regulated or expected-to-be regulated states in the United States and its acquisition will enable SGHC to penetrate and leverage its capabilities in these new markets. As of the date of this prospectus, the Betway brand (operated by licensee, DGC USA) is live in 7 US states, being Arizona, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Iowa, Colorado and Virginia. We expect the Betway brand to go live in Ohio and Louisiana during the first quarter of 2023. For the remaining 3 states, being Kansas, Mississippi and Missouri, as a result of a combination of timing around the introduction of regulations and/or receipt of required licenses and approvals, there is currently no specific timeline for go-live. An agreement is also in place for the provision of an additional casino brand in Pennsylvania.

Business Combination, Reorganization and Public Company Costs

On April 23, 2021, SGHC entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Sports Entertainment Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“SEAC”), the Company,

121

SGHC Merger Sub, Inc., and Sports Entertainment Acquisition Holdings LLC (the “Business Combination”). Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions therein, prior to the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), SGHC underwent a pre-closing reorganization (the “Reorganization”) wherein all existing shares of SGHC were exchanged for newly issued ordinary shares of the Company (“Super Group Ordinary Shares”). SGHC was deemed the accounting predecessor and the combined entity has become the successor registrant with the SEC, meaning that SGHC’s financial statements for previous periods are now disclosed in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the SEC following the consummation of the Business Combination. This transaction closed on January 27, 2022.

While the legal acquirer in the Business Combination is the Company, for financial accounting and reporting purposes under IFRS, SGHC is the accounting acquirer. Under this method of accounting, SEAC is treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. For accounting purposes, SGHC is deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction has been treated as a recapitalization of SGHC. Accordingly, the consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations of SGHC have become the historical financial statements of the Company, and SEAC’s assets, liabilities and results of operations have been consolidated with SGHC beginning on the acquisition date. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be presented as those of SGHC in future reports. The net assets of SEAC have been recognized at historical cost (which is expected to be consistent with carrying value), with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Please refer to note 4 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the most significant change in SGHC’s future reported financial position and results of operations is the decrease in cash and cash equivalents (as compared to SGHC’s balance sheet at December 31, 2021) of €84.0 million after the redemptions. Total direct and incremental transaction costs of SEAC and SGHC are estimated at approximately €55.0 million and have been treated as a reduction of the cash proceeds and allocated between issued capital and transaction expenses. Please refer to note 4 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

As a consequence of the Business Combination, the Company has become the successor to an SEC-registered and NYSE-listed company which requires the Company to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. Since the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company has been incurring additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees and additional internal and external accounting, legal and administrative resources, including increased audit and legal fees.

Impact of COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19 includes restrictions on travel, cancellation of sporting events, quarantines in certain areas and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. COVID-19 and actions taken to mitigate its spread have also had a significant impact on SGHC’s business, its suppliers and its customers. The direct impact on SGHC’s business, beyond disruptions in normal business operations, was driven by the suspension, postponement and cancellation of major sports seasons and events. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided to a significant degree, the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on SGHC’s financial performance will depend on the length of time that such disruptions exist. Conversely, hard lockdowns, stay-at-home or shelter-in-place orders for the general populace in many jurisdictions accelerated the shift to online commerce, which management believes has benefitted the business in some areas. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, the ultimate extent of the impact on SGHC’s businesses, operating results, cash flows, liquidity and financial condition will be primarily driven by the severity and duration of the pandemic, the pandemic’s impact on global economies and the timing, scope and effectiveness of federal, state and local governmental responses to the pandemic in the United States and national, provincial / state / regional and local responses elsewhere around the world. These measures may

122

adversely impact SGHC’s employees and operations and the operations of its business partners and may negatively impact SGHC’s business. SGHC’s revenues are dependent on interest in sporting events, which have been, and may be in the future, substantially limited during times of business shutdowns and the cancellation or reduction of physical participation in such activities.

Wholesale cancellation of sporting events in the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic led to a significant reduction of sports wagering during the months of March, April, May and June of 2020. Subsequent waves of the pandemic in 2020 and 2021 resulted in varying degrees of disruption in some sports and/or some countries, generally of reducing severity with each subsequent wave, reducing to negligible levels in the recent stage of the COVID-19 pandemic. As each wave subsided and restrictions relatively eased, the sports betting business recovered and, by 2022, had ultimately reverted to growth levels not significantly different from pre-pandemic expectations, in most countries in which we operate. Other than in jurisdictions where COVID-19 related restrictions were imposed on online gaming (such as the UK), the online casino business was not negatively impacted at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, but instead benefited from hard lockdowns which management believes resulted in more customers looking online for entertainment. The subsequent end of hard lockdowns and the relative easing of travel and social distancing restrictions generally results in a tapering of this effect, with many countries ultimately returning to levels of online casino activity in line with pre-pandemic expectations. Notwithstanding this, the inherent unpredictability of the COVID-19 pandemic and how governments will respond mean that management cannot be certain as to whether or not these trends will persist and, hence, what the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic will be to our business. See the section titled “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Super Group’s Business — COVID-19 has affected our business and operations in a variety of ways. The pandemic restrictions may have affected our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, including as a result of the reduction in the quantity of global sporting events, closures or restrictions on business operations of our suppliers, partners and sports organizations and a decrease in consumer spending, and it may continue to do so in the future. On the other hand, we cannot assure you that consumers will not decrease online gaming activities as pandemic restrictions are loosened. These cross-currents may have unknown and adverse effects that are impossible for us to predict.”

123

For Years Ended December 31, 2019, December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2021

Owing to the effects of the Business Combination, SGHC’s future results of operations and financial position may not be comparable to historical results. Furthermore, SGHC’s financial years ending December 31, 2019, December 31, 2020, and December 31, 2021, all included one or more business acquisitions.

Fengari was deemed to have been acquired on July 26, 2019. Fengari acquired City Views on July 31, 2019. Pelion was deemed to have been acquired on April 1, 2020. Pelion acquired Lanester on May 4, 2020. Yakira and Gazelle were both acquired by Pindus on September 30, 2020. Pindus is the predecessor entity and its results will therefore be reflected in the financial statements prior to July 31, 2019. SGHC was formed on July 6, 2020.

During the year of 2021, SGHC Limited acquired additional businesses, which include mostly back-office and marketing services companies including Webhost Limited (“Webhost”), Partner Media Limited (“Partner Media”), and Buffalo Partners Limited (“Buffalo Partners”) were acquired on April 9, 2021.

Raging River was deemed to have been acquired by SGHC SA Proprietary Limited on January 11, 2021.

On September 2, 2021, the Group purchased 100% of the outstanding shares of Smart Business Solutions S.A., a company in the process of applying for a gaming license.

On October 14, 2021, the Group purchased 100% of the outstanding shares of 11908120 Canada Inc. (doing business as TheSpike.gg), a company that provides marketing services.

On December 1, 2021, SGHC purchased 100% of the outstanding shares in Haber Investments Limited (‘Haber’), a company that provides back-office services which supports the operating entities within the Group and Red Interactive Limited (‘Red Interactive’), a company providing marketing services. The acquisitions were accounted for as business combinations under IFRS 3.

Based on these facts, the financial statements for SGHC Limited will consist of:

•

the period from January 1, 2019 to July 30, 2019 will include Pindus and its subsidiaries;

•

the period from July 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020 will include Pindus and its subsidiaries and Fengari and its subsidiaries;

•

the period from April 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 will include Pindus and its subsidiaries, Fengari and its subsidiaries and Pelion and its subsidiaries;

•

for the period ended December 31, 2020 SGHC Limited will be included and its subsidiaries, including Pindus and its subsidiaries, (from October 1, 2020, inclusive of that date, the latter included Yakira and Gazelle which were both acquired by Pindus on September 30, 2020), Fengari and its subsidiaries and Pelion and its subsidiaries;

•

for the period ended December 31, 2021 SGHC Limited will be included and its subsidiaries, including Pindus and its subsidiaries, Fengari and its subsidiaries and Pelion and its subsidiaries;

•

for the period January 11, 2021 to December 31, 2021 SGHC Limited will be included and its newly acquired subsidiary Raging River Proprietary Limited;

•

for the period April 9, 2021 to December 31, 2021 SGHC Limited will be included and its newly acquired subsidiaries of Webhost, Partner Media, and Buffalo Partners, for the period April 19, 2021 to December 31, 2021 it will include the new subsidiary of Raichu Investments Proprietary Limited and its subsidiaries, and for the period April 14, 2021 to December 31, 2021 it will include the new subsidiary of DigiProc and its subsidiaries; and

124

•

as from the period ended June 30, 2022, all comparative data has been represented due to the recapitalization. The historical audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein represents the trading of SGHC Limited, the predecessor to Super Group, with all share information restated to reflect the stock split that occurred as part of the recapitalization (See Note 24 to the audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein).

Accordingly, when considering the financial information that follows, the reader should bear in mind, particularly when comparing the Company’s performance in the year ended December 31, 2021, with the performance in the year ended December 31, 2020, with its performance in the year ended December 31, 2019, that only Pindus Holdings and its subsidiaries are included in all three years; that Fengari and its subsidiaries are included for the full year ended December 31, 2020 and 2021, but only a part of the year ended December 31, 2019; and that all of the other acquired entities and their subsidiaries are included only for varying parts of the year ended December 31, 2020 but for the full year ended December 31, 2021, notwithstanding that all entities were acquired as going concerns housing underlying businesses that had all been trading for several years prior to acquisition. The reader should also consider that during the years ending December 31, 2021 and 2022, SGHC made several other acquisitions primarily for the expansion of its global footprint and the provision of back office and marketing services to the Group, and certain revenues generated within these entities are eliminated on consolidation within SGHC, with the exception of Raging River gaming operations. See “— Key Components of Revenue and Expenses” later in this section.

Acquisition of Fengari

On October 7, 2020, SGHC entered into an agreement with the shareholders of Fengari, pursuant to which it acquired the entire issued share capital of Fengari, in consideration for the issue to the shareholders of Fengari of an aggregate of 13,638,493 ordinary shares of no par value each in SGHC, on the basis of one ordinary share for each share of Fengari sold. Immediately prior to the acquisition of Fengari by SGHC, the shareholders of Fengari were the same as the then shareholders of SGHC and held their shares in Fengari in the same proportions as they held their shares in SGHC. Accordingly, the shareholders of SGHC and their respective percentage ownership of SGHC were unchanged by the acquisition. The purpose of this transaction was to consolidate Fengari and its subsidiaries into the SGHC Group while retaining the ultimate beneficial ownership position of Fengari.

From March 12, 2020, the ownership structure and holdings percentages of Fengari were identical to those which were acquired by the Company on October 7, 2020. Prior to this, all shareholders were present in the ownership structure. This ownership structure was in place from the time of Fengari’s incorporation on July 26, 2019. Based on this high degree of commonality of ownership with the Company from incorporation and the acquisition of City Views by Fengari on July 31, 2019, management concluded that Fengari should be included in the SGHC financial statements from August 1, 2019, inclusive of that date.

Acquisition of Pelion

On October 7, 2020, SGHC entered into an agreement with the shareholders of Pelion, pursuant to which it acquired the entire issued share capital of Pelion in consideration for the issue to the shareholders of Pelion of an aggregate of 13,638,493 ordinary shares of no par value each in SGHC on the basis of one ordinary share for each share of Pelion sold. Immediately prior to the acquisition of Pelion by SGHC, the shareholders of Pelion were the same as the then shareholders of SGHC and held their shares in Pelion in the same proportions as they held their shares in SGHC. Accordingly, the shareholders of SGHC and their respective percentage ownership of SGHC were unchanged by the acquisition. The purpose of this transaction was to consolidate Pelion and its subsidiaries into the SGHC Group while retaining the ultimate beneficial ownership position of Pelion.

Pelion was incorporated as a holding company on April 1, 2020, and shortly thereafter, on May 4, 2020, acquired Lanester. At the time of incorporation of Pelion on April 1, 2020, the ownership structure and holdings percentages of Pelion were identical to those which were acquired by SGHC on October 7, 2020. The Company believes that the combination including Pelion with the Company should be deemed to have occurred on April 1, 2020, with acquisition by the Company of Lanester on May 4, 2020, accounted for as a business combination on that date.

125

Due to the scale of the businesses acquired in the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020, and the resulting impact of their consolidation with Pindus and Fengari on the financial results of SGHC during the year ended December 31, 2020, the comparative discussion of the financial results of SGHC for the year ended December 31, 2020, and of Pindus and Fengari for the year ended December 31, 2019, may be of limited use in assessing the performance of the business year-over-year.

Acquisition of Raging River

On January 11, 2021, Pindus, a subsidiary of SGHC entered into an option agreement with the shareholders of Raging River, pursuant to which it acquired the entire issued share capital of Raging River for cash consideration. The option period was for the period commencing on the date of the Agreement (January 11, 2021) and ending on December 31, 2025. Pindus exercised the option on April 8, 2021. Pindus nominated SGHC SA under option to purchase 100% of share capital in Raging River. On January 11, 2021, pursuant to the share transfer SGHC SA gained control of Raging River.

Acquisition of Verno

On September 1, 2022, SGHC completed its acquisition of a 100% stake in Verno Holdings Limited (“Verno”) which holds a majority stake in Jumpman, a small, UK-focused casino business, which has built and owns all its proprietary technology. We view this as an opportunity for us to expand in the UK as well as into other markets at the appropriate time, as we expect the business of Jumpman is positioned to continue to expand. The original founder of Jumpman has, through various structures, maintains ownership in the remaining shares of the company.

Other Acquisitions

On April 9, 2021, SGHC entered into an agreement to acquire Webhost, a company providing procurement services to SGHC; City Views a subsidiary of SGHC also entered into agreements to acquire Partner Media and Buffalo Partners, both companies providing marketing services to SGHC. On April 14, 2021 and April 19, 2021 SGHC entered into agreements to acquire DigiProc and Raichu, respectively, with both entities providing back-office administrative services to SGHC. On December 1, 2021, SGHC entered into an agreement to acquire both Haber Investments Limited for the provision of back-office services and Red Interactive Limited for the provision of marketing services to the Group. These agreements were for cash consideration.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

SGHC believes that its performance and future success depend on several factors that present significant opportunities for SGHC but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below and in the section titled “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Super Group’s Business.” SGHC’s financial position and results of operations depend to a significant extent on the following factors:

Ability to Acquire, Retain and Monetize Customers

SGHC’s ability to effectively market its offerings is critical to operational success. The Company undertakes a variety of marketing initiatives, include traditional marketing channels (such as television, print and radio), digital marketing (such as online display advertising, search engine marketing, social media and “affiliates” marketing, the latter being an industry term describing independent third-party marketing agencies which despite the word “affiliate” are not affiliated with the Company in the ordinary sense of the word) and retention marketing (including via email, text messages and social media). Traditional marketing channels are by their nature difficult to measure. Digital marketing is typically more measurable but somewhat more complex to undertake. Retention marketing is subject to customer consent which is not always granted or may be revoked. In all cases it is therefore difficult to extrapolate the Company’s past performance into the future and/or into new markets where SGHC has not previously marketed its products and offerings.

126

In all of its marketing channels SGHC makes widespread use of incentives, also called bonuses or comps, which are accounted for as a deduction in the calculation of its revenues. The Company attempts to evaluate its customers individually and in real-time using a wide range of data points and with reference to proprietary models of customer behavior and profitability. Customer behavior and competitive forces are constantly evolving and it is therefore difficult to extrapolate the Company’s past performance into the future and/or into new markets where it has not previously marketed its products and offerings.

SGHC’s ability to execute on its marketing plans are subject to regulatory constraints in each market and it is not unusual for marketing-related regulations to change from time to time. The Company therefore cannot be certain that historic marketing channels will be available to it in the future and/or whether it will be allowed to utilize the same incentivization mechanisms in the future.

While SGHC is continuing to assess the efficiency of its marketing activities, the Company’s knowledge obtained over its operating history and the relative novelty of the online casino and sports wagering industries in certain markets or geographic regions makes it difficult for the Company to predict when it will achieve its longer-term profitability objectives.

Industry Trends and Competitive Landscape

SGHC operates within the global entertainment, betting and gaming industries, which are comprised of diverse products and offerings that compete for consumers’ time and disposable income. As the Company prepares to enter new jurisdictions, it expects to face significant competition from other established industry players, some of which may have access to more resources and/or may have more experience in online casino and sports wagering in these jurisdictions. In existing jurisdictions the Company also expects to face significant competition from existing competitors and new entrants, while in both new and existing jurisdictions ancillary product categories such as daily fantasy sports, casual games and financial services (where products are evolving over time to include “gamification” features that often closely resemble gambling) will also increase competitive pressure.

Legalization, Regulation and Taxation

SGHC’s growth depends on expanding its activities in existing markets, as well as on successfully entering new markets and new geographies around the world. Management believes that incremental legalization and regulation of online casino and sports wagering, derived from governments’ desire to protect consumers and increase tax revenues, will create global opportunities for the Company to expand into newly regulated markets worldwide. For example, in the United States online sports wagering’s prospects were made possible after the United States Supreme Court repealed PASPA in May 2018, as unconstitutional, which had the effect of lifting federal restrictions on sports betting and thereby allowing states to determine the legality of such commercial activities. As another example, in August 2021 the Canadian Parliament passed legislation allowing provinces to regulate single-game wagering within each province. SGHC’s strategy is to closely monitor changes in regulations that enable expansion of existing markets or entry into new markets, and seize such opportunities in a financially prudent manner. The rate in which existing and new jurisdictions undergo regulatory changes, and online casinos and sports wagering markets expand (in the case of existing markets) or become legal (in the case of new ones), will impact the prospects and pace of SGHC’s growth, as it continues to expand its global footprint.

The process of securing the necessary licenses or partnerships to operate in a new jurisdiction may take longer than SGHC anticipates. In addition, legislative or regulatory changes or restrictions and gaming taxes may make it less attractive or more difficult for the Company to do business in a particular jurisdiction and may impact the Company’s profitability in both positive and negative ways that make the overall net effect hard to predict. In the past, when countries have introduced regulatory frameworks, the Company’s financial results have been impacted by, amongst other things, increased taxation and compliance costs, offset by improvements in other costs of doing business such as payment processing and product costs. In some cases, the introduction of a restrictive regulatory regime has resulted in a decrease in the size of the market, whereas in others a liberal

127

regulatory regime has led to an increase in the size of the market. Further, certain jurisdictions require the Company to have a relationship with a land-based casino for online sports and/or casino wagering access, which tends to increase the Company’s costs of revenue. Countries and/or states that have established state-run monopolies may limit opportunities for private operators.

Countries and/or states impose tax rates on online casino and sports wagering, which may vary substantially between jurisdictions. In the United States, once DGC has been acquired, SGHC will also be subject to a federal excise tax of 0.25% on the amount of each sports wager placed. Some jurisdictions impose constraints on the amounts of money that customers are allowed to deposit and/or lose (“loss limits”), sometimes in absolute terms without reference to the means of individual customers. Some jurisdictions impose constraints on the nature and extent of the marketing that may be undertaken in relation to the Company’s products. Management believes that the jurisdictions that will create the most compelling levels of profitability for the Company are jurisdictions with both online casino and sports wagering at favorable tax rates, with customer loss limits at levels that relate responsibly to what customers can afford to gamble with, and with marketing regulations that enable the Company to engage meaningfully with its customers. Conversely, management expects that a minority of jurisdictions will set tax rates at unprofitable levels and/or will set customer loss limits at arbitrarily low levels and/or will impose onerous constraints on marketing, in which case the Company might not be able to profitably trade in such jurisdictions.

Managing Wagering Risk

The online casino gaming and online sports wagering businesses are characterized by an element of chance. Accordingly, SGHC employs theoretical win rates and probability distributions to estimate what a certain type of online casino wager or online sports wager, on average, will win or lose in the long run. Revenue is impacted by variations in the hold percentage (the ratio of Net Revenue over Accepted Purchases) with respect to the online casino and online sports wagering that SGHC offers to its customers. SGHC uses the hold percentage as an indicator of an online casino game’s or online sports wager’s performance against its expected outcome. Although each online casino wager or online sports wager generally performs within a defined statistical range of outcomes in the long run, actual outcomes may vary for any given period, particularly in the short term.

In the short term, for online casino wagering and online sports wagering, the element of chance may affect win rates (hold percentages); these win rates, particularly for online sports wagering, may also be affected in the short term by factors that are largely beyond the Company’s control, such as unanticipated event outcomes, a customer’s skill, experience and behavior, the mix of games played or wagers placed, the financial resources of customers, the volume of wagers placed and the amount of time spent gambling. Factors that are nominally within the Company’s control, such as the level of incentives or bonuses or comps given to customers, might not, for various reasons both within and beyond the Company’s control, be well-controlled and hence in turn might impact win rates. For online casino games, it is possible that a random number generator outcome or game will malfunction or is otherwise misprogrammed to pay out wins in excess of the game’s mathematical design and award errant prizes. For online sports wagering, it is possible that the Company’s platform erroneously posts odds or is otherwise misprogrammed to pay out odds that are highly favorable to bettors, and bettors place wagers before the odds are corrected. Additionally, odds compilers and risk managers are capable of human error, so even if the Company’s wagering products are subject to a capped payout, significant volatility can occur. Similarly, inadvertently over-incentivizing customers can convert a sports wager or casino game that would otherwise have been expected to be profitable for the Company into one with a positive expectation for the player.
