On September 25th, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized the publication of the Group's draft consolidated financial statements as of June 30th, 2025.
Digital Bros S.p.A. is incorporated and operating in Italy. The Company is listed on the Euronext STAR segment of the Euronext Milan market operated by Borsa Italiana S.p.A..
Digital Bros Group ("the Group") develops, publishes and distributes video games on international markets.
The Group is organized into five operational business segments:
Premium Games: activities primarily involve the acquisition of intellectual property rights for video games from developers to distribute them primarily on digital marketplaces such as Steam, Sony PlayStation Network, Microsoft Xbox Live, Epic Game Store, etc..
The Group develops video games either directly, through its internal development studios, or working with independent teams. In the case of video games developed by external studios, the Company secures global rights either through long-term exclusive licensing agreements or via perpetual acquisitions.
The labels used for worldwide publishing are 505 Games and 505 Pulse.
During the reporting period, Premium Games activities were performed by the subsidiary 505 Games S.p.A., which coordinates this operating segment, together with 505 Games Ltd. and 505 Games (US) Inc.. As part of the Group's efforts to streamline its operations, starting from July 1st, 2024, all activities that were previously carried out by 505 Games Interactive Inc. have been fully transferred to 505 Games (US) Inc.. The Group finalized the liquidation process for 505 Games Interactive Inc. during the fiscal year.
The subsidiary 505 Pulse S.r.l, formerly known as Hook S.r.l., publishes indie video games, i.e. titles with lower development budget.
The Dutch company Rasplata B.V. is now 100% owned by the Group following the acquisition of the remaining 40% stake in August 2024. Rasplata B.V. owns the intellectual property and the technology used for the development of the video game Crime Boss: Rockay City.
The voluntary liquidation of the subsidiaries 505 Games France S.a.s. and 505 Games Spain Slu was finalized during the fiscal year, while the liquidation process for the German subsidiary 505 Games GmbH is still ongoing.
The following internal development studios operate in the Premium Games segment:
• the Canadian company Chrysalide Jeux et Divertissement Inc., held at 75% by the Group, which is currently developing the video game The Directorate: Novitiate.
The Group established the Spanish joint venture MSE&DB SL with the development studio MercurySteam Entertainment S.l.. The joint venture owns the intellectual property of the video game Blades of Fire, which launched during the fiscal year.
Free to Play: activities involve developing and publishing video games and/or applications that are distributed for free on digital marketplaces and monetized through in-app purchases. Free to Play video games typically present lower technical complexity compared to Premium titles, but when successful, they tend to enjoy a longer life cycle. Following their launch, Free-to-Play games require ongoing maintenance and updates to keep the users' interested, increase the players retention and extend the game's longevity.
Worldwide publishing activities are coordinated by 505 Mobile S.r.l., together with the U.S.-based 505 Mobile (US) Inc., which provides consultancy services to other Group companies and the UK-based DR Studios Ltd., which develops Free to Play video games.
The Australian companies 505 Games Australia Pty Ltd., Infinite Interactive Pty. and Infinity Plus Two Pty own the intellectual properties for the video games Puzzle Quest and Gems of War, for which they provide live support activities.
In July 2022, 505 Games Mobile S.r.l. acquired 100% of D3Publisher of America Inc., an American publisher of Free to Play video games, including spin-offs of the Puzzle Quest series. The company was then rebranded 505 Go Inc. Inc. after the acquisition was finalized.
The brands 505 Mobile and 505 Go! are used for worldwide publishing activities in the Free to Play segment.
Italian Distribution: consists of the distribution in Italy of video games purchased from international publishers and trading cards. The Italian Distribution activities are carried out by the Parent Company, Digital Bros S.p.A..
Other Activities: all remaining activities fall under the Other Activities operating segment for reporting purposes. This segment includes training and professional courses related to the video game industry carried out by the subsidiary Digital Bros Game Academy S.r.l..
The Group also holds a 60% stake in the UK-based company Seekhana Ltd..
Holding: activities consist of management of HR, financial planning and business development carried out by the Parent Company. Digital Bros China Ltd., Digital Bros Asia Pacific (HK) Ltd. and 505 Games Japan K.K. support the Holding activities with the business development in the Asian markets. Digital Bros Holdings Ltd. was not active during the period.
All the above-mentioned companies are fully owned, except for the 60% held in Seekhana Ltd and the 75% held in Chrysalide Jeux et Divertissement Inc..
The organization chart for operating companies as of June 30th, 2025 was as follows:

First launched in 2014, Assetto Corsa is a car racing simulator, developed by the internal studio Kunos Simulazioni S.r.l..
Assetto Corsa faithfully recreates the performance and the driving experience of real cars, replicating tyre grip, aerodynamic impact, engine parameters as well as different weather conditions. Nearly one hundred cars are available to choose from, reproduced in collaboration with the most prestigious automotive manufacturers, and that can be driven on legendary circuits including Silverstone, Monza, Nürburgring-Nordschleife, Barcelona, Brands Hatch, Spa Francorchamps. All circuits are recreated using Laser Scan technology so that each bump, curb and slope is a perfect match to the real counterpart. Assetto Corsa can be played in fully customizable single player and multiplayer modes including quick races, race weekends and free practice sessions, qualifying session and race day.
Launched in 2018, Assetto Corsa Competizione is the official video game for GT World Challenge and the official Esport video game for FIA Motorsport Games.
The second version of Assetto Corsa, Assetto Corsa EVO is currently in development. The video game launched in Early Access for personal computers in January 2025.
Since launch, the Assetto Corsa franchise has generated revenues for around Euro 174 million.

Developed by the Czech studio Ingame Studios S.r.l., Crime Boss: Rockay City is a first-person shooter video game, set in the thriving metropolis of Rockay City during the Nineties. Find a few familiar faces there too: from the charismatic Travis Baker (Michael Madsen) and his team (Michael Rooker, Kim Basinger, Danny Glover and Damion Poitier) to rival gang bosses (Danny Trejo and Vanilla Ice). Play as Baker as he builds his empire using strategy, cunning and a little fire power to carry out heists and take territory from rival gangs. Winning the turf war won't be easy though: rival gangs will try to take the city for themselves, and Sheriff Norris (Chuck Norris) will stop at nothing to bring all criminals to justice. Stealing everything from cash and drugs, through to priceless artifacts is more fun with accomplices: jump into the co-op multiplayer and take on thrilling hits and heists with up to four players.
Crime Boss: Rockay City launched exclusively for personal computers on Epic Games Store on March 28th, 2023. Console versions were released in June 2023. A new PC version launched on Steam in June 2024.

Developed by the Polish studio One More Level, Ghostrunner is a first-person cyberpunk action slasher videogame set in a grim dystopic future.

Players must fight their way to the top of the structure to bring down the tyrannical Keymaster and avert humanity's extinction.
Since its launch in October 2020, Ghostrunner became a successful title, selling over one million copies worldwide. The game is available on all platforms. The second version, Ghostrunner 2 launched in in the second quarter of the last fiscal year.

Developed by the Australian studio Infinity Plus Two acquired by the Group in January 2021, Gems of War is a Free to Play puzzle-RPG video game first launched in 2014 and available on mobile, Steam, console and Nintendo Switch.

Since its launch, Gems of War has generated revenues exceeding Euro 39 million.

Developed by the Australian studio Infinity Plus Two acquired by the Group in January 2021, Puzzle Quest 3 is an all-new instalment to the globally renowned puzzle-RPG franchise. The first version launched in 2007, with successful spin-offs published by the newly acquired 505 Go Inc..

The game's intellectual property is owned by Digital Bros Group and it is used for the videogame published by the American 505 Go Inc..
The video game market is a key segment of the entertainment industry, alongside movies, books, magazines, and toys. These sectors share common characteristics, brands, features, and intellectual properties, contributing to a dynamic and interconnected entertainment landscape.
The growth achieved by the video game industry during the pandemic generated widespread optimism, prompting many competitors to initiate new productions and significantly increase the average investment per game. As a result, an unprecedented and unexpected number of new video games were launched on the market, making it harder to meet the expected volume and revenue targets. Because of this, many companies were forced to reassess their strategies regarding portfolio investments and marketing expenditures to adapt to this competitive scenario. Starting from the second half of 2023, the market has seen waves of layoffs, studio closures, and project cancellations. As of the reporting date, such a situation remains unresolved.
The video games market value chain is as follows:

The COVID-19 pandemic further accelerated the decline of retail distribution, which has now become marginal and has been almost entirely supplanted by digital distribution channels.
Developers create and design video games, usually based on original ideas, a successful brand, a movie, sports simulations etc.. It has become increasingly common for highly successful video games to be adapted into movies, TV series, cartoons, and other media.
Developers generally retain intellectual property rights, but they may transfer their rights to publishers for a limited period of time, which is defined contractually. Publishers play therefore a key role in this value chain, contributing to the production of video games, creating a player community, and managing its distribution across their global commercial networks.
In some cases, developers may choose to publish and market the game independently. However, this approach significantly increases the financial and operational risks for these players.
The publisher is responsible for the launch of the video game, defining its global commercial strategy, overseeing product positioning and packaging, bearing all the related risks, while sharing instead all opportunities from the game success with the developer. Publishers typically finance the development process and often acquire the game's intellectual property either permanently or for a set period, including licensing rights for sequels.
The console manufacturer designs and produces the hardware used for playing video games. Sony manufactures the PlayStation, Microsoft the Xbox and Nintendo the Nintendo Switch. Console manufacturers often also operate as video game publishers.
The key marketplaces that sell console video games are Sony's PlayStation Store, Microsoft's Xbox Live and Nintendo's eShop. Steam is the global leader in the digital distribution of video games for personal computers. More recently, the US company Epic Games Inc. launched its Epic Games Store for PC.
The digitalization of the market has driven both Microsoft (with Xbox Game Pass) and Sony (with PlayStation Now) to develop digital platforms where players can access an entire library of video games for a predefined period by paying a subscription fee, rather than purchasing individual titles. Revenues for publishers and developers are recognized when a game is added to the platform, based on a predetermined annual fee defined for each product. Additionally, as end consumers play the games, the platform provides an incremental fee to the publishers based on user engagement.
Digital distribution has extended the video game's lifecycle. Video games' availability is no longer limited to their launch on the retail channel, but rather they remain available on marketplaces for longer, thus generating a continuous revenue stream, which can be significantly influenced by promotional campaigns. The video games' life cycle can also be extended by releasing additional chapters and content after the official launch of the main game. The additional features (the so-called DLC, or Downloadable Contents) are available on digital marketplaces for consumers to buy or download for free.
Free to Play video games are only available in digital format on the following marketplaces: the App Store for iPhone and iPad, the PlayStore for Android for Western markets and a number of different marketplaces for Far Eastern markets. Some Free to Play video games are also available on Sony PlayStation Store, Microsoft's Xbox Live for console, Steam and Epic Games Store for PC.
The video game industry does not appear to be materially impacted by the current changes and developments in international tariff policies.
The Group relies on specific key performance ratios to simplify the comprehension of the consolidated profit and loss statement and balance sheet. The key performance ratios used in this report are consistent with previous years.
The following ratios are directly reported in the profit and loss statement:
With regards to the profit and loss statements, the same rationale is also valid for the net financial position, which is detailed in the Explanatory Notes.
The ratios used by the Group could be misaligned with those adopted by other companies, as they are not defined by any accounting standard and therefore they might not be fully comparable.
No reconciliation is required between the performance indicators reported in the Directors' Report and the consolidated financial statements, as the Group's metrics are directly derived from the figures in the consolidated financial statements. The only exception is the Adjusted Liquidity Ratio, for which adequate reconciliation is provided.
Market seasonality is heavily influenced by the release of highly anticipated and popular video games. The launch of a successful title in a specific period can lead to significant revenue volatility across quarters. Sales are often concentrated in the first few days following the game's release, especially when the launch is supported by targeted marketing and promotional campaigns.
The digitalization of the market has contributed to a more stable revenue stream for publishers across quarters. Unlike physical retail cycles, digital marketplaces recognize revenue at the time of the end consumer's purchase, thereby reducing the impact of seasonal sales fluctuations.
Promotional campaigns on digital marketplaces play a crucial role in boosting revenue during specific periods. Publishers strategically align their marketing efforts with peak consumer spending seasons, such as Christmas in European markets, Black Friday in the U.S., and the Chinese New Year.
Revenues from Free-to-Play games tend to be less affected by seasonal fluctuations compared to Premium Games. Free-to-Play titles typically generate steadily increasing revenue over time, without significant spikes at launch, except in rare cases involving highly anticipated titles with exceptionally well-known brands. The impact of promotions on revenue performance is significant; however, unlike Premium Games, these promotions occur much more frequently and are spread over shorter intervals, preventing excessive revenue volatility across different quarters.
The minimal contribution of physical distribution sales to total consolidated revenue has significantly reduced the volatility of net working capital, enabling more linear net financial position trends.
On October 28th, 2024, the Shareholders' Meeting approved the Financial Statements for the fiscal year as of June 30th , 2024 of Digital Bros S.p.A. and appointed Veronica Devetag Chalaupka as a non-executive Director. The new Director will remain in charge with the current Board of Directors until the approval of the financial statements as of June 30th, 2026.
Over the past fiscal years, Digital Bros Group and Starbreeze group ("Starbreeze") have entered multiple different transactions, summarized below.
In May 2016, the Group sold back the PAYDAY2 co-publishing rights to Starbreeze against a payment of USD 30 million and an earn-out of USD 40 million as 33% of the net revenues from the future video game PAYDAY3.
In January and February 2020, the Group conducted the following transactions:
On July 19th , 2023, the Company requested the full conversion of the convertible bond, which resulted in the issuance of no. 148.3 million Starbreeze B shares.
During the last months of the previous fiscal year, different interpretations emerged between the Group and Starbreeze AB about the calculation of the earn out from the transfer of PAYDAY 2 rights to the Swedish developer and the repayment of receivables related to other contracts between the two groups.
On February 27th, 2025, the Group reached a settlement agreement with the Swedish developer, resolving all outstanding matters. Consequently, the Provision for Starbreeze arbitration costs accrued as of June 30, 2024 was released, as no arbitration proceeding is required. The agreement was reflected in the Group's half-yearconsolidated financial statements with a neutral effect on its net result.
Ahead of Starbreeze AB's Annual General Meeting on May 15th, 2025, the Group submitted an alternative list of candidates for the company's Board of Directors, differing from the proposal initially presented by the Nomination Committee. Following the AGM's approval of the Group's list and the election of the Group's CFO to Starbreeze's Board, the Group determined that it had acquired significant influence over the Swedish company as of that date. This determination was based on the following IAS 28 indicators:
As of June 30th, 2025, the Group holds no. 87 million Starbreeze A shares and no. 223.4 million Starbreeze B shares, representing 19.11% of the share capital and 37.65% of voting rights.

Total non-current assets decrease by Euro 9,895 thousand, from Euro 113,619 thousand to Euro 103,724 thousand as of June 30th , 2025. Such decrease was driven by Euro 25,448 thousand investments for the period, offset by Euro 23,186 thousand depreciation and amortization and Euro 12,157 thousand impairment charges.
Non-current receivables and other assets decreased by Euro 4,538 thousand, primarily due to the settlement agreement reached with Starbreeze AB. Under the agreement, receivables related to the video game Overkill: The Walking Dead were reclassified in line with the agreed payment schedule, partly as non-current financial assets and partly offset against trade payables to the Swedish developer.
Other current assets decrease by Euro 3,333 thousand as a result of the utilization of advances paid for the acquisition of video game licenses and for costs incurred in advance for the development of video games, particularly relating to programming, quality assurance and other operating expenses (i.e. ratings, localization).
As of June 30th, 2025, there were no other financial assets, down by Euro 10,197 thousand year-on-year, given that the receivable from Remedy Entertainment related to the reversion of publishing, distribution and marketing rights for video games under the Control brand was fully collected.
Current liabilities increase by Euro 4,430 thousand, primarily due to the advances received for video games that are scheduled to launch in the next fiscal year.

A breakdown of Free to Play gross revenue by video game is provided below:
| Euro thousand | June 30th , 2025 |
June 30th, 2024 | Change | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 505 Go Inc. | 8,411 | 12,880 | (4,469) | -34.7% |
| Gems of War | 3,142 | 3,465 | (323) | -9.3% |

Free to Play revenue amounted to Euro 12.7 million, down by 28.6% compared to the previous fiscal year. The video games published by the subsidiary 505 Go Inc. have been upgraded to a new game engine starting from the previous fiscal year. This will enhance the performance of the live support activities by allowing further reaching and more complex event updates, together with easier and more frequent promotional activities. The upgrade will also support localization into additional languages, expanding the game's player base to a global audience. As of the reporting date, the game is primarily available in English and, to a lesser extent, in major Western languages, with most revenue generated in the U.S. The software upgrading process, as well as the testing phase, has been finalized in the first quarter of the new fiscal year.
The video game Gems of War generated Euro 3,142 thousand revenue, down by 9.3% compared to the previous fiscal year. The title still delivers interesting volumes despite being launched over a decade ago.
The total cost of sales amounted to Euro 8,611 thousand, down by Euro 572 thousand, driven by lower purchase of services for resale.
Other income amounted to Euro 1,909 thousand, decreasing by Euro 285 thousand compared to June 30th, 2024, reflecting the video games currently in production by the Group's subsidiaries. The capitalization of own work included the video game Puzzle Quest: Immortals by the Australian subsidiary Infinity Plus Two and the new title Battle Island II in development by the subsidiary DR Studios Ltd, which is also involved in some development activities for the Premium Games operating segment.
The total operating costs amounted to Euro 7,621 thousand, decreasing by Euro 2,926 thousand compared to the last fiscal year. The reduction was driven by lower payroll costs by Euro 1,793 thousand resulting from last year's reorganization and lower cost for services by Euro 1,054 thousand.
The gross operating margin (EBITDA) was negative at Euro 1,635 thousand, down by Euro 1,865 thousand compared to the positive Euro 230 thousand as of June 30th, 2024.
Depreciation and amortization amounted to Euro 2,357 thousand as of June 30th, 2025 and included Euro 1,760 thousand related to the depreciation of the video game Puzzle Quest. The remaining amounts related to the IFRS 16 application to the rental agreements for DR Studios Ltd. and the Australian companies, as well as the depreciation of the Group's intellectual properties for the reporting period.
Asset impairment charges totaled Euro 6,866 thousand and related entirely to the cancellation of the video game Hawken: Reborn. Due to the complexity of the project and the substantial additional investment required to finalize the title ahead of launch, the Group decided to discontinue development. The decision was also driven by marketrelated considerations and the challenges in reliably estimating future demand.
The operating margin (EBIT) amounted to negative Euro 9,949 thousand compared to negative Euro 4,047 thousand as of June 30th, 2024.

Non-current assets amount to Euro 11,322 thousand, decreasing by Euro 7,521 thousand, primarily due to lower intangible assets for Euro 8,055 thousand. Such decrease results from Euro 1,168 thousand investments which are offset by Euro 2,357 thousand depreciation and amortization in the period and asset impairment for Euro 6,866 thousand.
Non-current assets account for over 77% of the total assets for this operating segment, in line with the previous fiscal year.
Other non-current payables and liabilities amount to Euro 96 thousand and relate solely to the remaining portion of the outstanding consideration for the acquisition of the subsidiary 505 Go Inc., payable beyond twelve months.

The Group implements a risk identification process involving the Board of Directors and first-level managers, facilitated through periodic coordination meetings held throughout the fiscal year. This process results in a risk matrix that is drafted and regularly updated by the Executive Director responsible for internal control and risk management system, who also takes part in the coordination meetings. For each identified risk, the risk matrix provides a description, a gross risk rating score based on a probability/impact matrix, the mitigating factors and/or internal processes implemented by the Group to reduce and monitor such risk and the resulting net risk rating. The Executive Director in charge of the internal control and risk management system submits the risk matrix for the analysis of the Control and Risk Committee and the approval by the Board of Directors.
The risk matrix also assesses the potential impact on the Group's operations and financial reporting in the event that the mitigation objectives are not met.
The CEOs and the Executive Director in charge of the internal control system assess the accuracy and completeness of the risk matrix and the net risk ratings assigned to each identified risk. The Board of Statutory Auditors oversees this process and the Board of Directors is responsible for approving the risk matrix.
The identified risks fall into two different categories: operational and financial risks.
The most significant operational risks for the Group are:
Management of development contracts
The Group develops video games both through its internal studios and through external developers, who contractually agree to deliver the products within predefined timeframes. Any inability to manage development schedules could lead to delays in the product launches. For titles that are related to specific events or licensing agreements, such delays could materially affect their sales potential and increase development costs. Delays may also result in lower-than-forecasted financial outcomes.
The Group's portfolio has only limited exposure to video games linked to specific events. The new publishing strategy increasingly focuses on titles developed by fully owned studios, which ensures greater control over production processes, and on sequels to successful games, where prior experience provides a stronger basis for managing timelines and expected results.
To mitigate this risk, the Group has implemented a strict contract acquisition procedure. For material projects, the Board of Directors reviews the developers' CV and performs an in-depth due diligence of their technical and organizational capabilities. The Group also applies implemented a structured project management process, which introduced ongoing monitoring performed by the Group's brand managers and producers.
Inability to publish products that match technological and quality expectations and standards
Rapid technological change and the emergence of new means of entertainment may hinder the Group's ability to publish products that meet consumers' quality expectations. Although investment decisions account for the introduction of new technologies, the video game may fail to match the quality of competitive titles, and/or if the Group detects such quality gaps, it may delay the video game launch. The Group's ability to forecast technological trends and competitors' performance is only limited, which challenges the strategic planning process and may negatively affect revenues and margins.
The growing adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools by the other publishers and developers could further disrupt the competitive landscape. If the Group delays the adoption of such tools, this could slow development, and its products may be perceived as less innovative or outdated. On top of this, the Group could have to bear higher production costs compared to those peers that chose to use AI instead. AI adoption is still challenged by social factors in Western markets, but this attitude may shift rapidly, particularly as acceptance grows in other regions. Failure to adapt could affect efficiency and innovation, increasing the competitive risks.
To mitigate this, the Group has redirected its publishing strategy towards sequels to successful franchises and titles based on fully owned intellectual properties (IPs), which provide greater control and long-term value creation. The Group also monitors projects quarterly, allowing adjustments according to forecasted demand trends and leverages the extensive experience of its management team. In addition, long and short-term strategic plans are reviewed on a quarterly basis, allowing the timely implementation of corrective measures.
As with any other form of entertainment, the video game market is exposed to different risks outside the Group's control, especially those concerning how consumers react to new products. Following the pandemic, strong market growth encouraged significant increases in investment, resulting in a surge in the number of titles released. This has made it increasingly difficult for publishers to meet sales targets, as players have become more selective, especially with respect to new IPs. If the Group is unable to forecast consumer preferences and to quickly respond to shifts in the market, it could materially affect the Group's revenues and margins, failing to meet financial targets.
This risk is mitigated by extensive management's experience and by rigorous selection procedures with respect to licensing and development contracts. Each project is evaluated based on forecasted profit and loss statements and supported by ongoing market analyses conducted by industry specialists. The Group's new publishing strategy prioritizes higher-margin titles, particularly those based on fully owned IPs that can create value in the long term.
Long and short-term strategic plans are reviewed on a quarterly basis, allowing the timely implementation of corrective measures.
Disintermediation of the Publisher and management of Intellectual Property (IP)
The video game market has become increasingly digitalized, which shortened the value chain. If this trend continues, the role of publishers could be weakened, especially for those that do not own or contractually control the IPs. On top of this, AI is lowering entry barriers, enabling smaller teams to develop and produce video games quickly and at a lower cost. The growing consumer acceptance of AI, combined with the almost entirely digital distribution, may weaken the publisher's power in the value chain.
To mitigate this, the Group has acquired majority and minority stakes in developing companies, in an effort to gain control over the video games' IPs. It also enters primarily into development contracts that secure ownership and/or long-term control of IP rights. The Group continues to offer key publishing services, including IP protection, legal support, and privileged access to marketplaces, leveraging the long-standing expertise of its management team.
As with other forms of entertainment, the video game industry often relies on distinctive third-party brands and trademarks coming from sports, films and books, or toy brands leveraging their existing visibility and consumer basesto enhance marketing effectiveness. However, licensing agreements are also risky: any point between signing the contract and the release of the game the brand may lose value, for example due to a celebrity scandal or a poorly performing film. If the brand's appeal is weaker than expected, revenues and margins may suffer.
This risk is mitigated by the management's longstanding experience and by the possibility to launch the game by using a different licensee or without any licensed brand. The Group's strategy deliberately focuses on video games with limited reliance on third-party trademarks. Long and short-term strategic plans are reviewed on a quarterly basis, allowing the timely implementation of corrective measures.
The Group's success depends on the performance of key professionals with significant experience in the industry. Executive Directors, i.e. the Chairman, CEOs and the CFO play a critical role in managing operations. Should the Group loose any of these individuals without planning an adequate succession, the Group's results could be negatively affected. This would also hinder the Group's ability to identify, assess, and monitor risks.
This risk is mitigated by the fact that both CEOs are also the main shareholders, while the CFO is one of the beneficiaries of a long-term incentive plan. The Group has also established a Nomination Committee entrusted with the preparation of a succession plan for executive directors.
Risks Associated with Artificial Intelligence (AI)
AI is one of the most significant technological developments of recent years, presenting both opportunities and risks across most industries. With regards to the entertainment sector, and video games in particular, AI brings innovation, efficiency, and productivity but also challenges the existing business models.
By streamlining production processes, AI exacerbates existing risks such as publisher disintermediation, the ability to deliver competitive products, the management of external development teams, the inability to adequately forecast customer demand patterns, and the risk of misuse of third-party IPs.
The Group's publishing strategy focuses on establishing a leadership position in niche markets through recognized brands. This could mitigate the risks related to AI adoption because the loyal player communities within such niches are more shielded against competitive pressure. In addition, developing new titles through internal studios or trusted long-term partners allows greater oversight of how AI is deployed.
The main financial instruments used by the Group are:
The purpose of these instruments is to finance the Group's operating activities.
Credit facilities granted to the Group and used as of June 30th , 2025 are as follows:
| Euro thousands | Total amount | Disposed | Available |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bank overdrafts | 1,700 | 1,358 | 342 |
| Short-term financing | 7,500 | 7,335 | 165 |
| Advances on invoices and cash orders subject to collection | 16,600 | 3,661 | 12,839 |
| Total | 25,700 | 12,354 | 13,346 |
In addition to the above-mentioned short term credit facilities, the Group also entered medium-term loans, whose entire residual amount of Euro 11,232 thousand is due within the next twelve months, as detailed in paragraph 9 of the Notes.
The Parent Company, Digital Bros S.p.A. and the subsidiary 505 Games S.p.A. bear all the financial risks, except for other financial instruments not mentioned above, such as trade payables and receivables from operating activities, for which each subsidiary bears the individual financial risk.
The Group seeks to maintain a balance between short-term and medium/long-term financial instruments, in line with the expected results. Long-term investments are usually financed through medium/long-term credit lines, including leases, which are often investment specific.
Given the above, medium- and long-term financial payables have a well-distributed range of maturities.
The main risks deriving from the Group's financial instruments are:
The Group is exposed to the US dollar due to the fact that sales are denominated in that currency. This is mitigated by the fact that a significant number of video game development contracts are also denominated in US dollars. Any negative changes in the EUR/USD exchange rate would therefore increase production costs and post-launch royalties, but at the same time increase revenues in US dollars, and vice versa.
The Group is also exposed to fluctuations in the Chinese Renminbi. Adverse movements in the EUR/CNY exchange rate would negatively affect revenues denominated in such currency.
The Group takes into account such risk when preparing its short- and long-term strategic plans, by using forward exchange rates based on reports from independent analysts. The risk is further mitigated by the fact that a significant portion of the payments in foreign currency are made in advance: the Groups recognized the actual costs for advances for video game production at the time of payment, therefore it is able to reflect potential additional charges from exchange rate fluctuations in its sales prices. In addition, selling prices can be adjusted to offset adverse exchange rate movements, and contracts are generally denominated in the same currency, thereby reducing exposure to currency fluctuations.
The Group is exposed to the risk of rising interest rates on short-term financial instruments, as any increase cannot be immediately passed through to sales prices.
Liquidity risk is associated with limited access to credit markets. Following the pandemic, financial markets have generally seen a lower credit availability, due to macroeconomic uncertainty.
Video game development takes multiple years, which may require the Group to secure additional credit lines to cover the period between the investment and the recovery of the invested capital after the launch.
To mitigate liquidity risk, cash flows, financing needs, and liquidity are monitored by the Group's treasury with a centralized structure, to ensure efficient financial management and maintain adequate liquidity levels. The Group's strong capitalization and high EBITDA margin provide further flexibility to increase the use of financial leverage. Short-, medium-, and long-term strategic planning also enable the Group to forecast its cash requirements well in advance.
Based on current financial planning, the liquidity currently available, together with operating cash flows expected to be generated, is deemed sufficient to cover planned investment activities, working capital requirements, and scheduled debt maturities, while ensuring that future funding needs are identified and addressed on a timely basis.
Digital Bros is entitled to 33% of Starbreeze's net revenue from PAYDAY 3 sales, up to a cap of USD 40 million as part of the agreement finalized in May 2016 for the transfer of PAYDAY 2 rights to the Swedish group. In March 2021, Starbreeze announced a publishing agreement with a major international publisher for the global release of PAYDAY 3.
After the launch of PAYDAY 3 in September 2023, differing interpretations of contractual definitions emerged between the Group and Starbreeze, especially after having received the initial earn-out calculation by the Swedish developer
During the reporting period, the Group has not recognized any earn-out from PAYDAY 3, in accordance with the calculation methods defined in the settlement agreement with Starbreeze and based on the game's performance. No earn-out recognition is expected in the short term. Further details are provided in the "Relations with Starbreeze" section of this Report.
As of June 30th, 2025, the Group has not recognized deferred tax assets on approximately Euro 4 million of tax losses incurred by some of its subsidiaries, as these losses were considered non-recoverable under the applicable local tax legislation and in light of the Group's five-year strategic plan.
No significant subsequent events occurred after the fiscal year-end.
In response to market uncertainties, the Group has further reduced the number of video games currently in development, discontinuing some projects initiated in prior years. As a result, the fiscal year ending June 30th , 2026 will see fewer launches, but regarding videogames with better visibility and a more balanced risk profile.
With respect to the Premium Games segment, the first quarter of the current fiscal year marked the launch of the video game Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, which became available across most marketplaces in July. The title achieved significant sales volumes and more recent reviews on Steam now sit at over 80% positive, despite receiving negative reviews in the first few days immediately after launch. According to some Chinese media reports, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers may have been the best-selling Chinese premium video game in 2025 so far. In the second quarter, a new title developed by the subsidiary Supernova Games Studios will be released, followed by the highly anticipated indie game Nivalis, which can count on a significant number of wishlists on digital platforms, and finally, a new version of Blades of Fire. Meanwhile, Assetto Corsa EVO remains available in Early Access on Steam and will continue to be enhanced with new features and content.
In the Free-to-Play segment, while awaiting the benefits of the relaunch of the titles published by the subsidiary 505 Go Inc., development of the new game within the Puzzle Quest franchise will continue, with the release scheduled for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 2027.
Forecasts for the next fiscal year show growing consolidated revenues, driven by the expansion of the Premium Games segment, only partially offset by the expected decline in the Free-to-Play segment. The expected increase in revenues, together with the cost reductions program implemented by the Group since last year, is expected to support operating profitability to return positive that, combined with the reduction in investment, should have a positive effect on the net financial position, which is expected to continue improving throughout the fiscal year.
The following table details the number of employees as of June 30th , 2025 with comparative figures as at June 30th ,2024:
| Category | June 30th , 2025 |
June 30th, 2024 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Managers | 13 | 14 | (1) |
| Office workers | 272 | 283 | (11) |
| Blue-collar workers and apprentices | 4 | 4 | 0 |
| Total employees | 289 | 301 | (12) |
The following table reports the number of employees of non-Italian companies as of June 30th, 2025, compared to the previous fiscal year
| Category | June 30th, 2025 | June 30th, 2023 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Managers | 7 | 8 | (1) |
| Office workers | 171 | 183 | (12) |
| Total employees outside Italy | 178 | 191 | (13) |
The average number of employees for the period is calculated as the mean number of employees at the end of each month. It is shown below with corresponding prior year figures:
| Category | Average no. in 2023 | Average no. in 2024 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Managers | 14 | 14 | 0 |
| Office workers | 279 | 346 | (67) |
| Blue-collar workers and apprentices | 4 | 4 | 0 |
| Total employees | 297 | 364 | (67) |
The significant decline in the average number of employees between the two reporting periods reflects the reorganization announced in November 2023 and completed in the second half of the prior fiscal year, resulting in a global workforce reduction of over 30%. The majority of redundancies impacted the Group's development studios, while the Premium Games and Free-to-Play publishing divisions were less impacted.
The average number of employees of the non-Italian companies is as follow:
| Category | Average no. in 2025 | Average no. in 2024 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Managers | 8 | 8 | 0 |
| Office workers | 178 | 243 | (65) |
| Total employees | 186 | 251 | (65) |
The employees of the Group's Italian companies are contracted under the current Confcommercio national collective employment agreement for the commercial. distribution and services sector. Employees of the three Italian studios – Kunos Simulazioni S.r.l.. AvantGarden S.r.l. and Supernova Games Studios S.r.l. – are contracted under the national collective employment agreement for the mechanical industry.
The video game industry has a negligible impact on the environment due to its primarily digital nature.
Most of the products are sold through digital marketplaces and the Group has progressively reduced sales through physical stores. Still, the Group actively monitors any solution that would contribute to further minimizing the effects of its activities on the environment.
The Group updates obsolete equipment whenever possible and ensures all components are recycled appropriately. Documents are stored digitally, with physical printing limited to legal requirements or specific task needs. Consumables such as printer toners are returned to suppliers for proper recycling. Additionally, the Group prioritizes digital communications, such as video conferences, over travel to minimize its impact on the environment and to reduce travel expenses.
As of June 30th , 2025 the Group is not subject to the reporting obligations set out by Legislative Decree No. 125 of September 6th, 2024. Given the growing importance of sustainability issues for its stakeholders, the Group decided to voluntarily prepare its first Sustainability Report in the previous fiscal year. The Sustainability Report as of June 30, 2023 is available on the Company's website in the Sustainability section.
The Sustainability Report for the fiscal year ended June 30th, 2024, still prepared on a voluntary basis, is currently being finalized and will be published on the corporate website.
The Group's Corporate governance report outlines its compliance with the Corporate Governance Code, providing detail information pursuant to Art. 123-bis of the L.D.58 of February 24th 1998, known as the Consolidate Law on Finance or T.U.F.. The report is available in Italian and English in the Governance/Corporate Governance Report section of the corporate website at www.digitalbros.com.
The Report on the remuneration policy and fees paid, prepared pursuant to Art. 123-ter of the T.U.F., is available in Italian and English in the Governance/Remuneration section of the corporate website at www.digitalbros.com. (this page was intentionally left blank)

EXPLANATORY NOTES
(this page was intentionally left blank)
The main activities performed by the Group and its subsidiaries are detailed in the Directors' Report.
The consolidated financial statements as of June 30th, 2025 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (IAS/IFRS) and the related interpretations (SIC/IFRIC) endorsed by the European Commission and in force at that date. The consolidated financial statements provide comparative information related to the previous fiscal period.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared based on historical cost, with the exception of specific items. Office buildings (classified under Property, Plant, and Equipment), derivative financial instruments, and financial assets, including equity and bonds investments, are recognized at fair value. Additionally, the book value of assets and liabilities subject to fair value hedging is adjusted to reflect changes in the fair value attributable to the hedged risks.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Euro, with amounts rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.
The consolidated financial statements as of June 30th, 2025, have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Group has assessed that the uncertainties and risks described in the Directors' Report do not question its ability to continue operating as a going concern. In particular, the Group has considered the following:
The financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with the supplementary disclosure requirements on formats and reporting prescribed by Consob Resolution No. 15519 of July 27, 2006, and Consob Communication No. 6064293 of July 28, 2006.
The financial statements include:
The left-hand column of the balance sheet indicates the number of the related Note.
The balance sheet items have been allocated to the five categories below:
Non-current assets consist of all items that are long-term in nature and include property, plant, and equipment used for more than one year, equity investments, and receivables that will be collected in future years. They also include deferred tax assets, regardless of when they may be realized.
Current assets are short-term in nature and include inventories, trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, and other current financial assets.
Net equity includes share capital, reserves, and retained earnings (which include profit for the fiscal year plus any prior fiscal year profits not allocated to specific reserves by the Shareholders' General Meeting). The portion attributable to non-controlling interests is disclosed separately.
Non-current liabilities consist of provisions that are not expected to be utilized within the next twelve months, as well as post-employment benefits, including employee termination indemnities for the Parent Company and its Italian subsidiaries, and payables due beyond June 30th, 2026.
Current liabilities include obligations due by June 30th, 2026 and mainly include trade payables, tax liabilities, and current financial liabilities.
The left-hand column of the consolidated profit and loss statement identifies the number of the related item. The same is valid for the left-hand column of the profit and loss statement for each operating segment.
The profit and loss statement is presented in a multi-step format, with expenses analysed by nature. It details four intermediate profit levels:
Basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share are illustrated after the net profit / (loss) for the fiscal year i.e., the difference between profit before tax and total taxes.
The consolidated cash flow statement has been prepared using the indirect method. This approach consists of adjusting the net profit net of the effects of non-cash transactions, changes in net working capital, cash flows from financing and investing activities, and the changes in the consolidated net equity.
The overall changes for the period are calculated as the sum of the following components:
The changes in net equity comply with IAS/IFRS and illustrate the changes occurred between July 1st , 2024 and June 30th , 2025. Non-controlling interests are disclosed separately.
The assessment criteria used for drafting the consolidated financial statements as of June 30th , 2025, are consistent with those used for the consolidated financial statements as of June 30th, 2024, except for the new accounting principles implemented from July 1st 2024 as highlighted below.
Property, plant, and equipment are recognized at purchase or production cost, net of depreciation and impairment. No assets have been reversed compared to prior years, and no borrowing costs have been capitalized.
Leasehold improvements and costs incurred after acquisition are capitalized only if they enhance the future economic benefits associated with the asset. All other costs are recognised in the profit and loss statement when incurred.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets or the duration of the lease, as follows:
| Buildings | 3% |
|---|---|
| Plant and machinery | 12%-25% |
| Industrial and commercial equipment | 20% |
| Other assets | 20%-25% |
| Leasehold improvements | 17% |
Land is not depreciated. However, impairment adjustments are performed if its recoverable amount, defined as the greater of fair value and value in use, falls below its recognized cost.
The book value of property, plant, and equipment is removed upon disposal (i.e., when control of the asset is transferred to the purchaser) or when no future economic benefit is anticipated from its use or disposal. The profit or loss from disposal, calculated as the difference between the net book value of the asset and the consideration received, is recognized in the profit and loss statement at the time of disposal.
The residual values, useful lives, and depreciation methods of property, plant, and equipment are reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, at each year-end.
The right-of-use asset for leased assets is recorded on the effective date of the lease agreement, or when the lessor makes the underlying asset available to the lessee. In some cases, where the lease agreement includes multiple components, the effective date may need to be determined for each individual lease component.
Initially, this asset is valued at cost, which includes the present value of the liability for leased assets, lease payments made before or on the effective date of the agreement, and any other initial direct costs. The value of the right-of-use asset can be subsequently adjusted to reflect any changes in the assets or liabilities related to the lease.
Assets acquired under finance lease agreements, when substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the Group, are recognized as assets at their fair value or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments over the lease term. The corresponding lease liability to the lessor is recognized under financial liabilities. The leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives for each asset category.
The right-of-use asset is amortized over the shorter of the contractual lease term or the residual useful life of the underlying asset. Typically, Group leasing contracts do not transfer ownership of the underlying asset, so amortization is carried out over the contractual lease term, starting from the lease commencement date.
Should there be a loss in the asset value, according to the principle of onerous contracts, the asset is written down accordingly, regardless of the amortization already accounted for.
Intangible assets, whether purchased or produced internally, are capitalized in accordance with IAS 38 - Intangible Assets, provided it is likely that their use will generate future economic benefits and their cost can be reliably measured.
Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognized at cost. For intangible assets acquired in a business combination, the cost corresponds to the fair value at the acquisition date. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortization of intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognized in profit or loss in a manner consistent with the function of the asset.
Internally generated intangible assets, other than capitalized development costs, are not recognized as assets and the related costs are accounted for as incurred.
The useful life of intangible assets is classified as either finite or indefinite. The Group does not hold intangible assets with indefinite useful lives.
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized systematically over their estimated useful lives, starting from the moment when the asset is available for use. The amortization method is determined individually for each asset, based on the expected trend identified at the time of the video game's release. Residual values are reviewed as part of impairment testing, which is performed at least twice per fiscal year.
The amortization rates applied are as follows:
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives, with amortization starting when the assets are available for use. The carrying amount of these assets is tested for recoverability in accordance with IAS 36, as detailed in the "impairment of assets" section below.
An intangible asset is eliminated at the time of disposal (i.e., when control of the asset is transferred to the buyer) or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any profit or loss resulting from the disposal, calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the book value of the asset, is recognized in the profit and loss statement.
Business combinations are recognized using the acquisition method. The cost of acquisition is calculated as the fair value of the consideration transferred at the acquisition date plus any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Group decides whether to measure non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at their proportionate share of the acquiree's net identifiable assets. Acquisition-related expenses are generally recognized in the profit and loss statement as administrative expenses.
Upon acquiring a company, the Group recognizes the financial assets and liabilities according to the specific contractual terms, economic conditions, and any other existing conditions at the acquisition date.
If a business combination involves multiple steps, any previously held equity interest in the acquiree (measured using the equity method) is restated to its fair value at the acquisition date, with any resulting profit or loss recognized in the profit and loss statement.
Any contingent consideration is recognized at its fair value at the acquisition date. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration recognized as an asset or liability are recorded either in the profit and loss statement or in the comprehensive income statement. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, no remeasurement is required until the contingency is settled, with the subsequent transaction accounted for as a change in net equity.
Goodwill is initially valued at cost, calculated as the difference between the consideration transferred and the fair value of the net identifiable assets and liabilities acquired. If the consideration paid is less than the fair value of the acquired net assets, the difference is recognized in the profit and loss statement.
If only a preliminary determination of the fair value of the assets, liabilities, and contingent assets is available at the acquisition date, the business combination is recognized using these preliminary amounts. Any adjustments resulting from the final valuation process are recognized within twelve months of the acquisition date, with comparative measurements restated accordingly.
After initial recognition, goodwill is carried at cost, less any accumulated impairment losses. During impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the acquisition, from the acquisition date, regardless of the allocation of the acquired company's assets and liabilities to such units.
If goodwill is allocated to a cash-generating unit that subsequently disposes of some of its operations, the goodwill associated with those disposed operations is included in the carrying amount of the assets when calculating the profit/loss on disposal. The portion of goodwill attributable to the disposed operations is determined based on the value of the disposed activity relative to the retained portion of the cash-generating unit.
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method in accordance with IFRS 3. At the acquisition date, the assets and liabilities involved in the transaction are recognized at their fair value, except for deferred tax assets and liabilities and those related to employee benefits, which are recognized in accordance with the relevant accounting standards. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized in the profit and loss statement.
At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired are recognized at their fair value, with the exception of the following items, which are measured in accordance with their specific accounting standards:
liabilities or equity instruments related to payments arrangements based on the acquiree' shares or share-based payment arrangements of the Group that are entered into to replace the acquiree' sharebased arrangements;
discontinued operations;
An associate is a company over which the Group exercises significant influence. Significant influence relates to the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, without being in full or joint control.
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that share joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
The considerations applied to determine significant influence or joint control are similar to those used to assess control over subsidiaries. The Group's investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.
The Group's share of the profit or loss of an associate or joint venture is reported in the profit and loss statement outside of the operating profit and represents the profit or loss net of taxes and non-controlling interests in the subsidiaries of the associate or joint venture.
Under the equity method, an investment in an associate or joint venture is initially recognized at cost. The carrying amount of the investment is subsequently adjusted to reflect the Group's share of changes in the net assets of the associate or joint venture from the acquisition date. The income statement reflects the Group's share of the operating results of the associates or joint ventures. Any changes in other comprehensive income (OCI) of such investees are presented as part of the Group's OCI. Furthermore, when changes are recognized directly in the equity of an associate or joint venture, the Group recognizes its share of such changes, where applicable, in the statement of changes in the net equity. Unrealized gains and losses arising from transactions between the Group and its associate or joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the investee.
Financial statements of the associate or joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as the Group. Adjustments are made, if necessary, to align the accounting policies with those of the Group.
Having applied the equity method, the Group assesses whether there is any indication of impairment of its investment in an associate or joint venture. At each reporting date, the Group evaluates whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the associate or joint venture is impaired. If such evidence exists, the Group measures the impairment loss as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate or joint venture and its carrying amount and recognizes the loss under "Share of profit of associates and joint ventures" in the profit and loss statement.
In the event that significant influence over an associate or joint control over a joint venture is lost, the Group measures and recognizes any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate or joint venture at the date significant influence or joint control is lost and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognized in the income statement.
In accordance with IFRS 9, investments in entities other than subsidiaries and associates, classified as non-current financial assets and not held for trading, are measured at fair value, except in cases where fair value cannot be reliably determined. In such cases, the cost method is applied. Consistent with the irrevocable option exercised by the Company, changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income (fair value through other comprehensive income – FVOCI), with no subsequent reclassification to profit or loss upon disposal of the investment.
For further information on the accounting policy for financial assets, refer to the relevant note ("Financial Assets") included in the Net Financial Position section.
According to IAS 36, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment. investments in associates and other entities shall tested for impairment.
In accordance with IAS 36, the Group performs an impairment test on its assets at least once a year. Where indications of impairment exist, the Group determines the recoverable amount of the asset, or, if this is not possible, of the cash-generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs. The recoverable amount is defined as the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. Value in use is determined by discounting estimated post-tax future cash flows to their present value, using a discount rate that reflects both the time value of money and the specific risks associated with the asset.
An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. If the conditions that gave rise to the impairment no longer exist, the impairment loss is reversed to the extent of the revised recoverable amount, provided that the adjusted carrying amount does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined had no impairment been recognized. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversible. Reversals of impairment are recognized in the income statement.
Inventories of finished goods are recognized at the lower of their cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories includes purchase price and ancillary expenses and is determined using the specific cost method. If the net realizable value of the inventories falls below their purchase cost, an impairment loss is recognized, reducing the value of the affected inventory items to their realizable value.
Receivables are measured at amortized cost, reflecting their estimated realizable value. The nominal amount of receivables is adjusted to their estimated realizable value through a provision for doubtful accounts, based on the specific circumstances of each debtor. Receivables from customers undergoing insolvency proceedings are either fully written off or written down based on the expected recoverability as indicated by ongoing legal actions.
Payables are recognized at nominal amount.
Current employee benefits relating to salaries and wages, social security and pension contributions, accrued but unused leave expected to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date, and other fringe benefits arising from the employment relationship are recognized in the period in which the related service is performed.
Benefits payable to employees at the end of their employment, through defined benefit or defined contribution plans, are recognized over the period in which the employee provides service ("vesting period").
Defined benefit plans are based on employees' working life and the remuneration earned over a specified period. The Group's obligation to fund these plans and the annual expense recognized in the profit and loss statement are determined using actuarial valuations based on the projected unit credit method. The net cumulative actuarial gains and losses are recognized entirely in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise.
The liability for defined benefit plans recognized in the balance sheet reflects the present value of the defined benefit obligation.
Payments related to defined contribution plans made by the Group companies are recognized in the profit and loss statement as costs, when incurred.
Employees of the Group's Italian companies participate in defined benefit plans. In particular, the Italian postemployment benefit known as Trattamento di Fine Rapporto (TFR) is a statutory severance indemnity under Article 2120 of the Italian Civil Code. The TFR is a form of deferred remuneration linked to the employee's service seniority and remuneration earned during the service period.
Until December 31, 2006, the TFR was considered a defined benefit plan. Legislative amendments introduced by Law No. 296 of December 27, 2006 ("Finance Act 2007") and subsequent regulations, effective in early 2007, introduced significant changes, including giving employees the option to allocate their accrued TFR either to complementary pension funds or to the Treasury Fund managed by INPS.
As a result, from January 1, 2007, TFR contributions are treated as a defined contribution plan, while previously accrued TFR balances retain their nature as defined benefit obligations under IAS 19.
Actuarial gains and losses in accordance with the IAS 19 amendment for defined benefit plans are recognized in other comprehensive income under items that will not be reclassified to profit or loss and are recorded in the net equity under Other Reserves.
The valuation of other long-term employee benefits generally involves less uncertainty compared to postemployment benefits. Consequently, IAS 19 provides a simplified accounting method for these benefits. Unlike the accounting treatment for post-employment benefits, this simplified method does not include revaluations in the other components of the comprehensive income statement.
For other long-term employee benefits, the Group recognizes the net total of the retirement cost directly in profit or loss.
Some of the Group's managers and employees are beneficiaries of share-based incentives, which provides for the remuneration for their services through equity instruments (equity-settled transactions) under a stock option plan. The Stock Options Plan provides for a final vesting date of 1 July 2025 and an exercise expiry of 30 June 2026.
The cost of equity-settled transactions is measured at fair value at the grant date using an appropriate valuation model.
This cost is recognized in personnel expenses in the profit and loss statement, together with a corresponding increase in the net equity (Other Capital Reserves), over the vesting period. The cost/credit recognized in the profit and loss statement at each given period reflects the change in the cumulative cost the beginning to the end of period.
Non-market service and performance conditions are not taken into account in determining the fair value of the incentive when it is granted; however, the probability of meeting such conditions is incorporated into the Group's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market-based performance conditions are reflected in the grant-date fair value. Any other award conditions not linked to a service requirement are treated as non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of the incentive and result in immediate recognition unless service and/or performance conditions also exist.
The dilutive effect of outstanding options is considered in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as additional potential ordinary shares.
The Group establishes provisions for risks and charges when it has legal or constructive obligations to third parties, and where the exact amount and timing of the obligation are uncertain but it is probable such resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. These provisions are periodically adjusted to reflect any changes in the estimated liability amount.
Any changes in estimates are recognized in the profit and loss statement in the period in which they occur.
Current and non-current financial assets and current and non-current financial liabilities are recognized in accordance with IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank deposits, mutual fund units, and other highly liquid securities recognized as available-for-sale.
Current financial assets and securities are recognized according to their trading date.
Upon initial recognition, financial assets are classified based on their subsequent valuation methods: at amortized cost, i.e. at fair value through the OCI, or at fair value through in the profit and loss statement. The classification depends on the characteristics of the financial asset's contractual cash flows and the Group's business model for managing these assets.
Generally, financial assets are initially recognized at their fair value plus any transaction costs, except for trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group applies the practical expedient. In these cases, trade receivables for which there is no significant financing component or for which the Group applied the practical expedient are valued at their transaction price.
For the purposes of subsequent evaluation, financial assets are classified into four categories:
Financial assets measured at amortized cost (debt instruments)
Financial assets measured at amortized cost are subsequently valued using the effective interest rate method and are subject to impairment testing. Any profits or losses arising from the elimination, modification, or revaluation of these assets are recognized in the profit and loss statement.
Financial assets measured at fair value through OCI (debt instruments)
For debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), interest income, exchange rate differences, and both impairments and reversals are recognized in the profit and loss statement, following the same approach as for financial assets measured at amortized cost. The remaining changes in fair value are recorded in OCI. Upon derecognition, the cumulative fair value adjustments previously recorded in OCI are reclassified to the profit and loss statement.
Investments in equity instruments
Upon initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably elect to classify its equity investments as equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), provided these investments meet the definition of equity instruments under IAS 32 "Financial Instruments: Presentation" and are not held for trading. This classification is made individually for each instrument.
Gains and losses on these equity investments are not recognized in the profit and loss statement. Instead, dividends received are recognized as other income in the profit and loss statement when the right to receive payment is established, unless the Group uses the income to offset part of the cost of the financial investment, in which case the income is recognized in OCI. Equity instruments measured at fair value through OCI are not subject to impairment testing.
Financial assets measured at fair value through profit and loss
Financial assets measured at fair value and recognized in the profit and loss statements are recognized in the balance sheet statement at fair value. Net changes in fair value are recognized in the profit and loss statement for the current fiscal year.
Investments in financial assets are cancelled only when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the assets have expired (e.g., upon the final repayment of subscribed bonds) or when the Group transfers the financial asset along with all associated risks and benefits.
Financial liabilities encompass financial payables and other financial obligations, including liabilities arising from the market value valuation of derivative instruments when their value is negative.
At the time of initial assessment, financial liabilities are recognized as financial liabilities at fair value in the profit and loss statement or as amortized cost. All financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value, which is adjusted for any direct transaction costs if they are subsequently measured at amortized cost.
For the purposes of subsequent evaluation, financial liabilities are classified into two categories:
Financial liabilities measured at fair value in the profit and loss statement
Liabilities held for trading include those incurred with the intent of extinguishing or transferring them in the short term. This category encompasses derivative financial instruments subscribed by the Group that are not designated as hedging instruments under IFRS 9.
Gains and losses on these liabilities are recognized in the profit and loss statement for the fiscal year.
Financial liabilities at amortized cost (financing and loans)
After initial recognition, loans are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Profits and losses are recognized in the profit and loss statement when the liability is extinguished and throughout the amortization process.
The amortized cost is determined by including any discount or premium on acquisition, as well as fees or costs integral to the effective interest rate. Amortization of the effective interest rate is recorded in the profit and loss statement as financial costs.
Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation underlying the liability is extinguished, canceled, or fulfilled. If an existing financial liability is replaced by a new liability from the same lender with substantially different terms, or if the terms of an existing liability are significantly modified, the exchange or modification is treated as the extinguishment of the original liability. A new liability is then recognized, and any differences between the book values of the old and new liabilities are recorded in the profit and loss statement for the fiscal year.
Fair value consists of the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an free transaction between informed and independent parties at the measurement date. For assets traded on regulated markets, fair value is determined based on the market price (bid price) at the end of trading on the closing date of the period.
When market prices are not available, fair value is determined using appropriate valuation techniques. These may include discounted cash flow analysis using market data available at the measurement date.
Transactions are recognized based on the trade date, which is the date when the Group commits to buy or sell the asset.
If fair value cannot be reliably measured, the financial asset is valued at cost. The explanatory notes should disclose the type of asset and the reasons for using the cost method.
Initial assessment and Subsequent evaluation
The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, to hedge its interest rate risks. These derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date of derivative contract subscription and are subsequently revalued at fair value. Derivatives are recognised as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
When derivative financial instruments meet the conditions for hedge accounting, they are accounted for as follows:
Transactions that meet all the qualifying criteria for hedge accounting are accounted with the following methods.
The change in fair value of hedging derivatives is recognised in the profit and loss statements as Other costs. The change in fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as part of the carrying amount of the hedged item and is also recognised in profit and loss statement as Other expenses.
With regards to the fair value hedges referred to items under the amortised cost method, each adjustment to the book value amount is amortised in the profit and loss statement over the remaining period of the hedging, using the effective interest rate method (EIR). Such amortization may begin as soon as an adjustment exists, without exceeding the date on which the hedged item ceases to be adjusted for changes in fair value attributable to the hedged risk.
If the hedged item is derecognised, the unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in the profit and loss statement.
When an unrecognised commitment is designated as a hedged item, subsequent cumulative changes in its fair value attributable to the hedged risk are recognised as assets or liabilities and corresponding gains or losses recognised in the profit and loss statement.
The portion of the gain or loss on the hedged instrument is recognised in the 'cash flow hedge reserve', while the ineffective portion is recognised directly in the profit and loss statement. The cash flow hedge reserve is adjusted to the lower value between the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument and the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item.
Amounts accumulated within other items of the consolidated profit and loss statement are recognised based on the nature of the underlying hedged transaction. If the hedged transaction results in the recognition of a non-financial component, the amount accumulated in equity is removed from the separate component of equity and included in the book value of the hedged asset or liability. This is not considered a reclassification of items recognized in OCI for the period. The same applies in the case of a planned transaction involving a non-financial asset or liability that subsequently becomes an irrevocable commitment subject to fair value hedging.
For any other cash flow hedging, the amount accrued in OCI is recognised in the profit and loss statement as a reclassification adjustment in the reporting period when the hedged cash flows impact the profit and loss statement.
If the cash flow hedge is no longer recognized in the profit and loss statement, the amount accrued in OCI should remain there if such future cash flows are expected to occur. Otherwise, the amount should be immediately reclassified as a reclassification adjustment in the profit and loss statement for the reporting period. After discontinuation, once the hedged cash flow occurs, any remaining amount accumulated in OCI must be accounted for based on the nature of the underlying transaction, as described above.
Hedging of a net investment in a foreign operation
Hedging of a net investment in a foreign operation, including hedging of a monetary item as part of a net investment, is recognized similarly to cash flow hedging. Gains or losses from the hedging instrument are recognized in the comprehensive income statement for the effective portion of the hedge, while for the ineffective portion, they are recorded in the profit and loss statement. Upon the disposal of the foreign operation, the sum of total gains or losses is transferred to the profit and loss statement.
If hedge accounting cannot be applied, the gains or losses from the fair value measurement of the derivative financial instrument are recognised immediately in the profit and loss statement as interest income/expense or as financial income/expense.
The Group recognizes lease liabilities on the effective date of the lease contract. These liabilities represent the present value of minimum lease payments that remain unpaid at the agreement date. This includes payments based on an index or rate (initially valued using the index/rate in effect at the lease commencement date), as well as any potential penalties if the lease term allows for early termination and such termination is expected. The present value is calculated using the implicit interest rate of the lease.
Subsequently, the lease liability is increased by accruing interest and decreased by lease payments made.
The IFRS 15 standard – Revenue from Contracts with Customers establishes a new revenue recognition model, providing for:
Accordingly, revenues from the sale of goods/ the purchase costs are measured at the fair value of the amount received/due, taking into account of any returns, bonuses, trade discounts and volume-related rewards.
Revenues are recognized when the obligation to transfer goods to the customer is fulfilled and the revenue amount can be reliably measured. If discounts are expected and their amount can be reliably determined, they are accounted for at the time of revenue recognition.
The control of the goods is transferred to the customer when they can use and enjoy the benefits from the asset. For retail sales, control typically transfers upon delivery of the goods and payment by the consumer. For wholesale sales, control generally transfers when the goods are delivered to the customer's warehouse.
Revenue and associated costs for services are recognized based on the completion state of the service at the reporting date. This completion state is assessed based on the progress of the work performed. When services under a single contract span multiple reporting periods, the consideration is allocated to each period based on the fair value of the services provided.
Chargebacks for costs incurred on behalf of third parties are recorded as reductions to the related costs.
Costs and other operating expenses that do not produce future economic benefits, or that generate benefits not qualifying as assets, are recognized in the reporting period when they are incurred, pursuant to the accrual and matching principles. Advertising costs are recognized in the profit and loss statement upon service receipt.
Cost of sales includes the purchase/production cost of products, goods and/or services for resale. It includes all costs for materials and processing.
Changes in inventories reflect the adjustments to the gross carrying amount of inventories that occur during the reporting period.
Royalties paid for the use of international and Italian licenses are included as part of the cost of sales.
If royalty advances are fully recouped, the recoupment is calculated by multiplying the royalty rate per unit by the number of units sold during the reporting period. In cases of partial recoupment, the calculation is performed analytically for each agreement, based on the estimated future usage.
Dividends received from associates that are not subsidiaries are recognized only when the right to receive the payment is established and only if the dividends are generated from profits realized after the acquisition of control. If the dividends come from reserves accumulated before the acquisition, they are recognized as a reduction in the carrying amount of the equity investment.
Interest income and expense are recognised on an accrual basis and are shown separately in the profit and loss statement, without any offsetting.
Income tax encompasses all taxes calculated on the taxable income of the Group's companies. Generally, income tax is recognized in the profit and loss statement. However, if the tax pertains to items directly credited or debited to net equity, the tax effect is recorded directly as changes to net equity. Other taxes not related to income, such as property and capital taxes, are recognized as operating costs.
Deferred tax is calculated using the allocation method for liabilities, based on temporary differences between the taxable values of assets and liabilities and their values recognized in the financial statements. There are two exceptions: non-deductible goodwill from transactions not involving business combinations (which do not affect profit or loss or fiscal results) and differences arising from investments in subsidiaries where reversal is not anticipated in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets related to tax losses and unused tax credits are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available to recover them. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed using the expected tax rates applicable to the periods when the temporary differences are expected to be realized or reversed. These rates are specific to each jurisdiction where the Group operates.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reviewed quarterly. Unrecognized deferred taxes are reassessed and recognized if it becomes probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available for their recovery. Deferred taxes related to items not affecting the profit and loss statement are recognized in net equity or comprehensive income, according to the nature of the items. They are classified as non-current assets and liabilities, irrespective of when they are expected to be used.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities, regardless of the period in which they are expected to be used.
Basic earnings per share is calculated dividing the profit generated in the reporting period by the number of outstanding shares, without accounting for treasury shares. As the Group did not issue any convertible financial instruments, the diluted earnings per share correspond to the basic earnings per share during the reporting period.
Foreign currency transactions are recognized at the applicable exchange rate at the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are subsequently retranslated at the exchange rate in effect on the reporting date. Any exchange rate gains or losses resulting from this retranslation are recognized in the profit and loss statement.
Group employees (including executives) receive part of their remuneration in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees provide services in exchange for equity instruments ("equity-settled transactions").
This cost, together with the corresponding increase in equity, is recognized under personnel expenses over the period in which the service and/or performance conditions are satisfied. The cumulative expense recognized in respect of such arrangements at each reporting date up to the vesting date is based on the vesting period elapsed and on the Group's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or income recognized in the profit and loss statement for a period represents the change in the cumulative expense recognized between the beginning and the end of that period.
Service or non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the fair value of the plan at the grant date. However, the probability of satisfying such conditions is considered when estimating the number of equity instruments expected to vest. Market performance conditions are reflected in the grant-date fair value. Any other condition attached to the plan that does not involve a service requirement is considered a nonvesting condition. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of the plan and lead to the immediate recognition of the cost of the plan, unless service and/or performance conditions also apply.
No expense is recognized for rights that do not ultimately vest because service and/or performance conditions are not satisfied. When the rights are subject to a market condition or a non-vesting condition, they are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market condition or the non-vesting condition is ultimately satisfied, provided that all other service and/or performance conditions are met.
If the terms of a plan are modified, at a minimum the expense recognized is the grant-date fair value of the plan as if it had not been modified, provided the original vesting conditions are satisfied. In addition, any increase in the fair value of the plan, or any modification otherwise favorable to employees, is recognized as additional cost, measured at the date of the modification. When a plan is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining unrecognized fair value of the plan is expensed immediately in the profit and loss statement.
The dilutive effect of unexercised options is reflected in the calculation of diluted earnings per share.
With reference to Digital Bros' application of accounting standards, please refer to Digital Bros S.p.A. financial statements as of June 30th, 2024, available on the corporate website.
Pursuant to European regulations, the accounting standards used by the Group have not taken into account the rules and interpretations published by IASB and IFRIC as of June 30th , 2025, that have yet to be endorsed by the European Union. Outlined below are the accounting standards, amendments, and interpretations issued as of September 25, 2025, but not yet effective. The Group will adopt these standards, where applicable, from the date they come into force:

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of June 30th , 2025, and the accompanying explanatory notes required the application of discretionary assessments, estimates, and assumptions. These impacted the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements, as well as disclosures related to contingent assets and liabilities as of the reporting date. These assessments are based on short-, medium-, and longterm forecasts, which are continuously updated and subject to the review and approval by the Board of Directors prior to the approval of the financial reports.
Estimates are based on the best available information at the time and are reviewed periodically. Adjustments to such estimates are reflected in the profit and loss statement, when necessary. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates due to changes in the underlying assumptions or circumstances. Estimates are used for recognizing provisions for doubtful accounts and inventories, depreciation and amortization, equity investments, asset impairments, employee benefits, deferred taxes, and other provisions and allowances.
The key areas of uncertainty in making these estimates include determining the recoverable amounts of intangible assets, assessing credit losses, inventory impairments, employee benefits, provisions, and deferred tax estimation.
Consistently with the last fiscal year, the Group has deemed the estimates for royalty advances and the valuation of inventories no longer significant, given the residual amounts and the limited complexity in their measurement.
Intangible assets are subject to impairment adjustments when events or changes in circumstances suggest that their carrying amount may no longer be recoverable. Events that could trigger an impairment review include revisions to the strategic plans or changes in market conditions that result in lower-than-expected performance or reduced utilization of trademarks. The decision to recognize an impairment loss, as well as its magnitude, depends on management's evaluation of highly uncertain factors, such as future price trends and global or regional consumer demand.
Estimating employee severance obligations involves assessing potential future cash outflows due to both voluntary and involuntary departures, factoring in employee seniority and the revaluation rates mandated by Italian law. The TFR (employee termination severance) underwent significant changes for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 2006. A residual portion of the indemnities remains with Group companies, making the liability estimation complex. To ensure accuracy, the Group consults an actuary to evaluate the necessary parameters.
Following the approval of the "2016-2026 Stock Option Plan," an actuarial valuation, in line with IFRS 2 - Sharebased Payments, is required. An independent actuary has been appointed to perform this evaluation.
Regarding the liabilities from the new medium- to long-term incentive plan (LTI) approved by the Shareholders' Meeting on June 15th, 2021, the estimation process is relatively straightforward. The actuarial component, or the possibility of beneficiaries losing the incentive due to "bad leaver" conditions, is considered insignificant. As a result, the calculation of this liability did not require independent actuarial assistance.
The assessment of deferred tax assets and liabilities involves two key areas of uncertainty. The first concerns the recoverability of deferred tax assets. To mitigate this, the Group compares the recognized deferred tax assets for each entity with their respective business plans to ensure alignment. The second uncertainty relates to the applicable tax rate. It is assumed that the tax rate will remain stable over time and correspond to the current rates in force in the countries where the Group operates. Adjustments are made if any changes to tax rates come into effect.
The Group's subsidiaries include entities over which the Group has control, meaning that it has the authority to direct, either directly or indirectly, the financial and operational policies of the subsidiary to benefit its own activities. Specifically, the Group is considered to control a subsidiary when:
Control is generally assumed when the Group holds a majority of voting rights.
The subsidiaries' financial statements are consolidated from the date when the Group obtains control and until it ceases to have control.
The financial statements for the Group's subsidiaries are prepared based on the same reporting period and converted from the local to the international accounting standards used by the Group.
Changes in the Group's shareholding in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are recognized as net equity changes.
When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, all related assets (including goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interests, and equity components are derecognized, with any resulting gain or loss recognized in the profit and loss statement. Any remaining equity interest retained by the Group is recognized at fair value.
Investments in associates are initially recorded at acquisition cost and subsequently valued using the equity method.
The Euro is the Group's reporting currency, which corresponds to the functional currency of the Parent Company. At the reporting date, the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the Euro are converted as follows:
Exchange differences resulting from the conversion are recognized in the comprehensive income statement and recorded in the conversion reserve, which is included in the reserve item of the net equity prospectus. Upon the disposal of a foreign subsidiary, the portion of the conversion reserve referring to that subsidiary is reclassified into the profit and loss statement.
The goodwill from the acquisition of a foreign subsidiary (that operates in a currency other than the), along with any fair value adjustments to the assets and liabilities from its acquisition, are initially recorded in the local currency and subsequently converted into euro at the exchange rate in force at the end of the reporting period.
All intercompany assets, liabilities, income and expenses arising from intercompany transactions were eliminated when preparing the consolidated financial statements, including unrealised profits and losses on such transactions.
The following tables provide details on the consolidated subsidiaries, both on a line-by-line basis or the equity method. Their respective capital is shown in their local currency.

Equity consolidation method:
| Company name | Operational headquarters |
Country | Currency | Capita | % held directly or indirectly |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MSE&DB SL | Tudela | Spain | Euro | 10,000 | 50% |
| Starbreeze AB | Stockholm | Sweden | SEK | 32,488,765 | 19.11% |
As of June 30th, 2025, the Group holds a 50% interest in the Spanish joint venture MSE&DB SL recognized at a carrying amount of Euro 1,305 thousand, which increased by Euro 1,300 thousand compared to June 30th, 2024, as a result of the equity-accounted share of the profit of the Spanish company in the fiscal year.
Over the past fiscal years, Digital Bros Group and Starbreeze group ("Starbreeze") have entered multiple different transactions, summarized below.
In May 2016, the Group sold back the PAYDAY2 co-publishing rights to Starbreeze against a payment of USD 30 million and an earn-out of USD 40 million as 33% of the net revenues from the future video game PAYDAY3, which was launched in September 2023.
In January and February 2020, the Group conducted the following transactions:
On July 19th, 2023, the Company requested the full conversion of the convertible bond, which resulted in the issuance of no. 148.3 million Starbreeze B shares.
During the last months of the previous fiscal year, different interpretations emerged between the Group and Starbreeze AB about the calculation of the earn out from the transfer of PAYDAY 2 rights to the Swedish developer and the repayment of receivables related to other contracts between the two groups. The receivable from Starbreeze as of June 30th, 2024 amounted to Euro 4,425 thousand.
On February 27th, 2025, the Group reached a settlement agreement with the Swedish developer, resolving all outstanding matters. Consequently, the Provision for Starbreeze arbitration costs accrued as of June 30, 2024 was released, as no arbitration proceeding is required. The agreement had a neutral impact on the Group's half-yearconsolidated financial statements.
As of June 30th, 2025, the receivable from Starbreeze amounts to Euro 2,821 thousand and primarily included the advances for a video game (classified under Other non-current financial assets) and other minor receivables from the Swedish group. The amount of such receivable is reported net of the Euro 915 thousand compensations made during the fiscal year, Euro 236 thousand adjustments and Euro 453 thousand write-offs.
The Group submitted an alternative list of candidates for the Board of Directors of the Swedish company, differing from the initial proposal presented by its Nomination Committee ahead of the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Starbreeze AB, convened for May 15th, 2025. Following the AGM's approval of such list and with the election of Digital Bros Group's CFO to Starbreeze's Board of Directors, the Group considers that it has acquired significant influence over the Swedish company starting from that date. The assessment particularly focused the following criteria pursuant to IAS28:
As of June 30th, 2025, the Group holds no. 87 million Starbreeze A shares and no. 223.4 million Starbreeze B shares. This accounts for 19.11% of the share capital and 37.65% of voting rights.
Pursuant to IAS 28, the investment in Starbreeze has been accounted for using the equity method starting from the date when the Group acquired significant influence.
Up to that moment, the investment had been classified under Other investments and measured at fair value in accordance with IFRS 9, with changes recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. The change in fair value of the Starbreeze shares recorded in Other Comprehensive Income between July 1st, 2024 and May 15th, 2025 was negative at Euro 2,176 thousand.
Following the acquisition of significant influence and in compliance with IAS 28, the investment was reclassified as Equity investments and initially recognized at cost, corresponding to the fair value of the shares as of May 15th , 2025. The fair value of the shares as of May 15th, 2025 amounted to Euro 7,310 thousand.
As of June 30th, 2025, the carrying amount of the investment is adjusted to reflect the Group's share of the losses of the Swedish company accrued up to that date. This resulted in a reduction in the equity investment of Euro 210 thousand. On top of this, the Group recognized an impairment loss on the investment in Starbreeze, adjusting its carrying amount to the recoverable amount, identified as the fair value of Starbreeze shares as of June 30th, 2025. This adjustment better reflects the effective value of the investment, also considering the share price movement in recent months. The adjustment resulted in Euro 1,628 thousand write offs, which were accounted for as Financial expenses.
As of June 30th, 2025, the equity investment in Starbreeze amounts to Euro 5,638 thousand.
During the reporting period, the Parent company acquired the remaining 40% of the subsidiary Rasplata B.V. for total consideration of Euro 261 thousand. The company was already fully consolidated as of June 30th, 2024.

Total investments amount to Euro 25,485 thousand and include Euro 16,211 thousand related to the advances paid to external developers and/or suppliers of localization, rating and Quality Assurance services, while the remaining Euro 9,274 thousand consisted of capitalization of own work.
Asset impairment charges amount to Euro 19,257 thousand, which included included Euro 8,067 thousand related to lower cash flow projections of some products resulting from the impairment testing, and Euro 10,956 thousand related to projects under development that the Group decided to discontinue prior to completion.
The impairment tests on concessions and licenses as of June 30th, 2025, are based on the projected cash flows and revenues of the 2026-2030 Business Plan, approved by the Board of Directors on July 22nd, 2025. The discount rate was calculated using the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC), which considers the expected return on invested capital net of financing costs for a sample of companies within the same industry as well as companies generating revenue within the same geographic area. The rates used for the impairment test on Premium and Free to Play licenses were 10.92% and 10.75%, respectively, which are lower than the WACC used in the previous fiscal year. The WACC as of June 30th, 2025 has been analyzed by the Board of Directors, supported by an independent expert.
Investments in intangible assets as of June 30th, 2025 significantly decrease compared to the previous fiscal year, reflecting the corrective actions implemented by the Group, including the reduction of the number of projects under development, and the transition of certain video games from the development phase to live support.

Total equity investments decrease by Euro 2,526 thousand, primarily due to the fair value adjustment of the equity investment in Starbreeze as of June 30th, 2025, partially offset by the revaluation of the investment in MSE&DB SL. Details are provided below:

| Total equity equity investments (A+B) | 7,159 | 9,685 | (2,526) |
The change in the equity investments in associated companies reflects the recognition of the Group's share of the profit generated by the Spanish joint venture MSE&DB SL as of June 30th, 2025, as well as the initial application of the equity method to the investment in Starbreeze AB, effective from May 15th, 2025, when the Group assessed it had acquired significant influence over the Swedish company.
Other equity investments decrease by Euro 9,508 thousand, due to Euro 9,486 thousand resulting from the reclassification of the investment in Starbreeze as an associated company and Euro 22 thousand relates to the investment in Noobz from Poland S.A. (listed on the New Connect segment of the Warsaw Stock Exchange). The decrease of the equity investment in the Polish company reflects the fair value measurement with recognition in equity reserves of the difference between the carrying amount and the market value as of June 30th, 2025, for no. 70,000 shares representing 4.5% of the share capital, classified as financial instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
Total non-current receivables and other assets amount to Euro 2,601 thousand, decreasing by Euro 5,344 thousand compared to June 30th , 2024:

Royalty receivables consist of the advance royalty payments that are expected to be collected beyond twelve months.
The remaining part of non-current assets consists of security deposits for contractual obligations.
Deferred tax assets are recognized on tax loss carryforwards and on temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax base of assets and liabilities.

The main risks for the Group consist of:
The Group is exposed to the risk of rising interest rates on short-term financial instruments, as any increase cannot be immediately passed through to sales prices.
Liquidity risk is associated with limited access to credit markets. Following the pandemic, financial markets have generally seen a lower credit availability, due to macroeconomic uncertainty.
Video game development takes multiple years, which may require the Group to secure additional credit lines to cover the period between the investment and the recovery of the invested capital after the launch.
To mitigate liquidity risk, cash flows, financing needs, and liquidity are monitored by the Group's treasury with a centralized structure, to ensure efficient financial management and maintain adequate liquidity levels.
The Group's strong capitalization and high EBITDA margin provide further flexibility to increase the use of financial leverage. Short-, medium-, and long-term strategic planning also enable the Group to forecast its cash requirements well in advance.
Based on short and medium-term financial planning, the liquidity currently available, together with operating cash flows expected to be generated, is deemed sufficient to cover planned investment activities, working capital requirements, and scheduled debt maturities, while ensuring that future funding needs are identified and addressed on a timely basis.
The following table displays the Group's financial obligations by contractual maturity, in the worst-case scenario and using undiscounted amounts, considering the earliest date by which the Group could be asked for payment and providing the number of the relevant note.

The Group has sufficient financial resources to meet its obligations that are due within the fiscal year, relying on available liquidity, unused credit lines and facilities amounting to approximately Euro 13.3 million as of the reporting date, and on cash flows generated by its core operations.
The Group is exposed to the US dollar due to the fact that sales are denominated in that currency. This is mitigated by the fact that a significant number of video game development contracts are also denominated in US dollars. Any negative changes in the EUR/USD exchange rate would therefore increase production costs and post-launch royalties, but at the same time increase revenues in US dollars, and vice versa.
The Group is also exposed to fluctuations in the Chinese Renminbi. Adverse movements in the EUR/CNY exchange rate would negatively affect revenues denominated in such currency.
The Group takes into account such risk when preparing its short- and long-term strategic plans, by using forward exchange rates based on reports from independent analysts. The risk is further mitigated by the fact that a significant portion of the payments in foreign currency are made in advance: the Groups recognized the actual costs for advances for video game production at the time of payment, therefore it is able to reflect potential additional charges from exchange rate fluctuations in its sales prices. In addition, selling prices can be adjusted to offset adverse exchange rate movements, and contracts are generally denominated in the same currency, thereby reducing exposure to currency fluctuations.
As a result of the investment in Starbreeze shares, the Group is exposed to fluctuations in the Euro/Swedish Krones exchange rate.
Risk of dependence on key customers and collection risk
During the reporting period, the top ten global customers accounted for around 92% of total revenue. The market digitalisation inevitably leads to higher receivables concentration, since sales are made on specific marketplaces operating on a global scale. The concentration of revenues on a smaller number of key customers makes the Group reliant on the decisions made by a handful of companies. Indeed, there is a risk that if a specific product is not selected by such marketplaces, it might not achieve enough visibility on digital platforms, leading to lower sales than forecasted. On the other hand, a product may benefit from additional sales potential if it gains particularly favourable positioning.
The concentration of sales on a small number of customers also increases the Group's credit risk.
Such risk is mitigated by the potential entry of new marketplaces in the video game market. Nevertheless, the key customers consist of digital marketplaces with high credit scores (i.e., Sony, Microsoft, Apple, etc).
The following table breakdowns receivables from customers by due date as of June 30th , 2025 and June 30th , 2024:

The table below illustrates the fair value of assets and liabilities based on the calculation methods and models used when preparing the current financial statements. Financial assets for which the fair value cannot be determined are not included in the table.
The fair value of bank borrowing was calculated based on the interest rate curve at the reporting date, without any assumptions on the credit spread.
The fair value of the financial instruments listed on an active market is based on the prices on the market as at the reporting date. The market prices consist of bid/ask prices specific for the asset/liability held by the Group. The fair value of non-listed financial instruments and derivatives is determined using the valuation models and techniques most frequently used on the market, using observable inputs in the market.
Fair value was not calculated for trade receivables and trade payables, as their carrying amount is close to their fair value.
The Group assumed no significant difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of finance lease payables and payables to other lenders.

Pursuant to IFRS 7, the Group performed a sensitivity analysis on all financial instruments recognized in the current financial statements.
Such sensitivity analysis measures the expected impact of an exchange rate fluctuation of +/-10% compared to the rates in effect as of June 30th , 2025 for each class of financial instrument on the profit and loss statement and on the balance sheet, while all other variables are kept unchanged. The analysis is purely illustrative, given that such changes rarely take place in an isolated manner.
As of June 30th , 2025, the Group was not exposed to any other risks, like, for instance, a commodity risk.
The sensitivity analysis on the exchange rates took into account the risk of an increase in the exchange rate on financial instruments that are not denominated in Euro. This means that the sensitivity analysis also assessed the conversion risk.
The table below displays the impact on the net financial position and on the profit before tax of a 10% increase/decrease in the EUR/USD exchange rate, compared to the rate of 1.08 used for the budget:
| Type of change | Effect on net financial position | Effect on profit before tax |
|---|---|---|
| + 10% USD | (7,134) | (7,612) |
| - 10% USD | 8,720 | 9,303 |
As a result of the investment in Starbreeze, the Group is exposed to fluctuations in the Euro/Swedish Krone exchange rate. A 10% increase/decrease in the exchange rate would have an impact on profit before taxes of approximately Euro 450 thousand.
Pursuant to IFRS 7, all financial instruments recognised at fair value shall be recognized according to a hierarchical rationale that reflects the significance assigned to the inputs used to measure fair value. The levels are as follows:
The Group uses different measurements and valuation models to determine the fair value of its financial instruments.
The following tables summarize such financial instruments as of June 30th , 2025 and as of June 30th , 2024:

During the fiscal year, the Group recognized a non-recurring income of Euro 1,241 thousand attributable to the release of the provision for Starbreeze arbitration cost. These were offset by non-recurring expenses, consisting of credit losses relating to the receivable from Starbreeze for Euro 966 thousand and financial charges of Euro 236 thousand arising from the adjustment of the amounts that will be collected from the Swedish developer by January 2027.
In the previous fiscal year, non-recurring expenses totaled Euro 2,605 thousand, of which Euro 1,364 thousand referred to the reorganization costs and Euro 1,241 thousand to the Provision for the Starbreeze arbitration cost, which has been released in the current year.
