2025 marked a transformative year for the Group, driven by the strategic acquisition and consolidation of BII in the fourth quarter. This transaction significantly expanded the scale of our B2C operations and strengthened our presence in regulated online markets. Reported Group revenue increased 35.5% year-over-year to €520.6 million, while Adjusted EBITDA rose 41.2% to €184.6 million. The consolidation of BII contributed €169.7 million in revenue and €68.1 million in Adjusted EBITDA during the year.
Excluding the BII contribution, underlying performance reflected a more challenging operating environment. On a like-for-like basis, revenue declined 8.7% year-over-year and Adjusted EBITDA decreased 10.9%, primarily reflecting foreign exchange headwinds and the higher merchandise sales and implementation fees recorded in 2024.
The Group operates through two core segments, B2B and B2C. The B2B segment remained the primary earnings driver in FY25, contributing approximately 53.4% of Group revenue and 50.6% of total Adjusted EBITDA. Performance in the segment was supported by resilient demand across several markets and disciplined cost management.
Our U.S. operations continued to represent the largest market within the segment, accounting for approximately 66.5% of segment revenue and 78.1% of segment Adjusted EBITDA. While reported revenue in U.S. declined 5.2% year-over-year, performance in constant currency was broadly stable (-1.1%), with profitability supported by effective operating expense control, resulting in Adjusted EBITDA growth of 5.4%.
Operations in Oceania remained resilient during the year. In constant currency terms, Australia recorded revenue growth of 4.0% supported by stable organic growth, while Argentina B2B operations also delivered strong performance, with Adjusted EBITDA increasing by 22.5% year over year. Croatia continued to demonstrate solid momentum with revenue increasing 13.2% year-over-year, partially offsetting softer performance in rest of the world markets.
The B2C segment expanded significantly during the year following the consolidation of BII and contributed 46.6% of Group revenue and 49.4% of total Adjusted EBITDA. Within our legacy operations, performance remained mixed across markets. In Argentina, revenue increased 2.5% year-over-year, with Adjusted EBITDA growth at 6.9% reflecting improved operating margin.
In Turkey, the underlying online sports betting market expanded by approximately 50% in local currency during the year. Nevertheless, reported revenue declined by 21.8% year-over-year, primarily due to amendments in the remuneration structure within the business value chain, as well as the translation of results into euro. The impact on profitability was largely mitigated by corresponding reductions in operating costs, limiting the decline in Adjusted EBITDA to 4.1%.
³ With respect to BII, FY25 and 4Q25 covers the period from the acquisition date of 8 October 2025 to 31 December 2025.
⁴ Other Operating Income related to U.S. has been reclassified to revenue. For comparability purposes, 2024 figures have been adjusted accordingly.

Fourth Quarter Performance Review
Fourth quarter results reflect the initial consolidation of BII operations, which significantly increased Group revenue and shifted the overall revenue mix towards B2C activities, representing approximately 72.6% of total revenue for the period. Reported Group revenue for the quarter increased to €256.7 million, compared to €113.2 million in the prior year period.
The consolidation of BII also resulted in a notable shift in the Group's geographic footprint, with the UK becoming the largest market and accounting for more than 60% of total Group revenue during the quarter.
Excluding the contribution from BII, quarterly performance was impacted by higher merchandise sales recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024, as well as continued foreign exchange pressures in certain international markets.

In connection with the acquisition of the International Interactive business of Bally's, the Group completed a series of debt financing transactions. Specifically, the wholly owned subsidiary Intralot Capital Luxembourg S.A. issued €600 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Secured Notes ('SSN') due in 2031 and €300 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes. In addition, the wholly owned subsidiary Intralot Holdings UK Ltd. secured a €400 million (c. €460 million euro-equivalent) six-year Senior Secured Term Loan with institutional lenders, and Intralot Capital Luxembourg S.A. a €200 million four-year term loan provided by a consortium of Greek banks.
In connection with the above transactions, Bally's Intralot has also secured a €160 million revolving credit facility, which remains undrawn as of the reporting date.
Following the completion of the refinancing, in October 2025 the Group fully repaid both the Bank Loan ($230 million) and the Syndicated Bond Loan (€100 million). The repayment of the Syndicated Bond Loan resulted in the release of €20.2 million of restricted cash.
