The management of Bragg Gaming Group Inc. is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. This responsibility includes the selection and consistent application of appropriate accounting principles and methods in addition to making the judgments and estimates necessary to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Shareholders of Bragg Gaming Group Inc.:
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Bragg Gaming Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audits of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Acquisition of Wild Streak Gaming
Key Audit Matter Description
As described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, on June 2, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Wild Streak LLC, doing business as Wild Streak Gaming ("Wild Streak"), for a total purchase price of EUR 22,014 (in thousands). The identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are measured at fair value as of the acquisition date. Where the net of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is less than the fair value of consideration transferred, the difference is accounted for as goodwill. In assessing fair value of the acquired assets, management used various valuation techniques involving significant judgement and subjectivity.
We considered this to be a key audit matter due to the complexity of the transaction, which included valuation of the acquired intangible assets. This resulted in a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating the audit evidence related to management's estimates. As such, an increased extent of audit effort was required, which included the involvement of internal valuation specialists.

Audit Response
We responded to this matter by performing procedures over management's valuation techniques in determining fair value of the acquired assets and in determining goodwill. Our audit work in relation to this included, but was not restricted to, the following:
● Analyzed the signed purchase agreements to obtain an understanding of the key terms and conditions and to identify the necessary accounting considerations.
● Tested the mathematical accuracy of management's valuation models and supporting calculations.
● Evaluated the fair value of the consideration transferred including shares to be issued.
● Evaluated the reasonableness of key assumptions in management's models, including testing of historical financial results which were used as a basis for future projections.
● Assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures relating to the assumptions used in the acquisition in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
● With the assistance of internal valuation specialists, evaluated the reasonableness of management's model, through assessing the appropriateness of valuation models used and testing the significant assumptions and inputs by:
● Comparing to externally available industry and economic trends;
● Evaluating budgets and forecasts for future operations; and
● Comparing against guideline companies within the same industry.
Impairment Analysis of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets
Key Audit Matter Description
We draw attention to Notes 3 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements. The Company has recorded goodwill, property and equipment, right-of-use assets and intangibles assets of EUR 56,404 (in thousands) as of December 31, 2021. The Company performs impairment testing for goodwill and long-lived assets on an annual basis or more frequently when there is an indication of impairment. An impairment is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset, or its cash generating unit (CGU), exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its value-in-use and its fair value less costs of disposal. In determining the estimated recoverable amounts using a discounted cash flow model, the Company’s significant assumptions include future cash flows based on expected operating results, long-term growth rates and the discount rate.
We considered this a key audit matter due to the significant judgment made by management in estimating the recoverable amount for goodwill and long-lived assets and a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence relating to management’s estimates. This resulted in an increased extent of audit effort, including the involvement of internal valuation specialists.
Audit Response
We responded to this matter by performing procedures over the impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets. Our audit work in relation to this included, but was not restricted to, the following:
● Tested management’s key assumptions, including a ‘retrospective review’ to compare management’s assumptions in prior year expected future cash flows to the actual results to assess the Company’s budgeting process.
● Evaluated the reasonableness of key assumptions in the impairment model, including future cash flows based on expected operating results, long-term growth rates and the discount rate.
● Tested the mathematical accuracy of management’s impairment model and supporting calculations.
● Assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures relating to the assumptions used in the impairment assessment in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
● With the assistance of internal valuation specialists, evaluated the reasonableness of the Company’s impairment model, which included:
● Evaluating the reasonableness of the discount rates by comparing the Company’s weighted average cost of capital against publicly available market data;
● Developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rate selected by management; and

● Performing a sensitivity analysis by developing a range of independent estimates of growth rates and weighted average cost of capital.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises:
● Management’s Discussion and Analysis; and
● The information, other than the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon, in the Annual Report on Form 40-F.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audits or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
We obtained Management’s Discussion and Analysis and the Annual Report on Form 40-F prior to the date of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed on this other information, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
● Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
● Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

● Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
● Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
● Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
● Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audits and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audits.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Ajmer Singh Sran.

Nature of operations
Bragg Gaming Group Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Bragg", "BGG", the "Company" or the "Group") is primarily a B2B online gaming technology platform and casino content aggregator through its acquisition of Oryx Gaming International LLC ("Oryx" or "Oryx Gaming") in 2018.
The registered and head office of the Company is located at 130 King Street West, Suite 1955, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5X 1E3.
Oryx Gaming
Oryx Gaming is a B2B gaming solution provider. Oryx offers a turnkey solution, including an omni-channel retail, online and mobile iGaming platform, as well as an advanced content aggregator, sportsbook, lottery, marketing, and operational services. Oryx is incorporated in the State of Delaware and headquartered in Las Vegas. Its primary operations are provided through its wholly owned subsidiaries in Malta, Cyprus, and Slovenia.
Classification of online media business unit as held for sale and discontinued operations
During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company decided to discontinue its online media business unit. The associated assets and liabilities within the disposal group are presented as held for sale and the net loss attributable as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements ("financial statements"). The Company completed the sale of the majority of its online media business unit on May 7, 2020 (Note 6).
Statement of compliance and basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
These consolidated financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments classified at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) or fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”) which are measured at fair value. The significant accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently in the preparation of the financial statements for all periods presented.
These financial statements were, at the recommendation of the audit committee, approved and authorized for issuance by the Company’s Board of Directors on March 10, 2022.
Going concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern and realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, and do not give effect to any adjustments which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the financial statements. If the going concern assumption is not appropriate, material adjustments to the consolidated financial statements could be required.

COVID-19
In December 2019, there was a global outbreak of COVID-19 (coronavirus), which has continued to have a significant impact on businesses through the restrictions put in place by the national, provincial and municipal governments around the world regarding travel, business operations and isolation and quarantine orders.
At this time, it is unknown the extent of the impact the COVID-19 outbreak may have on the Company in the long term as this will depend on future developments that remain highly uncertain and that cannot be predicted with confidence. These uncertainties arise from the inability to predict the ultimate duration of the outbreak, including the duration of travel restrictions, business closures or disruptions, quarantine and isolation measures that are currently, or may be put, in place by Canada and other countries to fight the virus.
However, the Company derives the majority of its revenue from online casino gaming. This sector has largely benefited from the various international “lock downs”, requiring people to stay at home. As a result, such forms of entertainment have prevailed in a similar fashion to the various streaming businesses such as Netflix. Furthermore, the Company has limited exposure to sports betting revenues that have been impacted by the lack of professional sports.
As at the time of release of these financial statements, the Company’s financial performance, financial position and cash flow had not been adversely impacted by COVID-19 and the Company has determined

Presentation currency
The presentation currency of the Company is the Euro, while the functional currencies of its subsidiaries are Euro, Canadian dollar, United States dollar, and British pound sterling due to primary location of individual entities within the Group. The presentation currency of the Euro has been selected as it best represents the majority of the Company’s economic inflows, outflows as well as its assets and liabilities.
The assets and liabilities of operations that have a functional currency different from that of the Company’s reporting currency are translated into Euros at the foreign currency exchange rate in effect at the reporting date. The resulting foreign currency exchange gains or losses are recognized in the foreign currency translation adjustment as part of other comprehensive income. When such foreign operations are disposed of, the related foreign currency translation reserve is recognized in net earnings as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Euros at the foreign currency exchange rates that approximate the rates in effect at the dates when such items are transacted.
Business combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as of the date when control is transferred to the Company. The Company measures goodwill as the excess of the sum of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, all measured as at the acquisition date. Transaction costs that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination, other than those associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, are expensed as incurred.

Net earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”)
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net earnings (loss) available to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the net earnings available to shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the effects of all potential dilutive instruments.
Diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share when the effect of dilutive securities is anti-dilutive.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid marketable investments with an original maturity date of 90 days or less from the date of acquisition and prepaid credit cards. Cash and cash equivalents also include any cash held in trust as proceeds from future private placement.
Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables consist primarily of trade receivables from customers for which Oryx Gaming and Wild Streak provides services and accrued income in relation to receivables from customers that have yet to be invoiced, for services provided during the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020. Upon invoicing, amounts are transferred from accrued income to trade receivables and any differences between the accrued and invoiced values are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.
Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when control of the goods or services has been transferred. Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled, including variable consideration to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. Revenue from continuing operations is derived from software platform licensing, maintenance of source code, bespoke development, management service fees, marketing fees, revenue share from licencing of content and hosting fees. Revenue is recognized when the service provided to the customer is complete. Specifically:
- Games and content: revenues from content and platform licensing are derived from revenues a customer earns from utilizing the Company’s software platform and aggregated content in that period. The Company’s revenue is therefore linked to the revenue derived from a customer's end user, i.e., the subsequent sale. The Company recognizes revenue once the customer has earned the revenue from the subsequent sale/services as this is the point where the performance obligation is satisfied.
- iGaming and turnkey projects: the Company charges a fixed monthly management and marketing fee for its services in the month in which the services are provided, and performance obligations are met. Charges for development projects are charged on a time and materials basis upon delivery at agreed milestones. Revenue is recognized as it is billed unless services and performance obligations are provided in a future period. If services and performance obligations are not provided in the reporting period, then revenue is not recognized.

Revenue recognition (continued)
Revenue from discontinued operations is derived from programmatic advertising, branded content and social media management, sales of software maintenance agreements, software customization services, technical support services and consulting services. Revenue from discontinued operations is recognized on a monthly basis as it is billed.
Consideration receivable
Consideration receivable consists of cash receivables due as a result of the sale of discontinued operations. The fair value of the consideration receivable is determined by calculating the present value of expected future cashflows relating to the consideration receivable, applying the Company’s discount rate.
Income taxes
Current and deferred taxes are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, except for current and deferred taxes related to a business combination, or amounts charged directly to equity or other comprehensive loss, which are recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position.
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognized using the asset and liability method of accounting on temporary differences arising between the financial statement carrying values of existing assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases. Deferred tax is measured using enacted or substantively enacted income tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A deferred tax asset is recognized for temporary differences as well as unused tax losses and credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets and they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity, or on different taxable entities where the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Deferred tax is recorded on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Company, and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are recognized and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset, including costs incurred to prepare the asset for its intended use and capitalized borrowing costs. The commencement date for capitalization of costs occurs when the Company first incurs expenditures for the qualifying assets and undertakes the required activities to prepare the assets for their intended use.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of property and equipment, that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use and a proportionate share of general borrowings, are capitalized to the cost of those assets, based on a quarterly weighted average cost of borrowing. All other borrowing costs are expensed as incurred and recognized in net interest expense and other financing charges.

Property and equipment (continued)
The cost of replacing a component of property and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the component will flow to the Company and the cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced component is derecognized. The cost of repairs and maintenance of property and equipment is expensed as incurred and recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.
Gains and losses on disposal of property and equipment are determined by comparing the fair value of proceeds from disposal with the net book value of the assets and are recognized on a net basis in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.
Property and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of up to
Leases
The Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. If a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration, then the contract may contain a lease. The Company assesses whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an asset by performing the following tests:
- | assess whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset and may be specified explicitly or implicitly. It should be physically distinct or represent substantially all of the capacity of a physically distinct asset. If the supplier has a significant right to substitution, then the asset is not identified; |
- | assess whether the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits arising from the use of the asset throughout the period of use; and |
- | assess that the Company has the right to direct enjoyment of the asset. This right is identified when the Company has the decision-making rights in how and for what purpose the asset is used. In cases where the decision on how and for what purpose to use the asset has been predetermined, the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset if either it has the right to operate the asset, or the Company has designed the asset in a manner that predetermines how and for what purpose the asset will be used. |
The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.

Leases (continued)
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:
- | fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments; |
- | variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date; |
- | amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and |
- | the exercise price under a purchase option that the Group is reasonably certain to exercise, lease payments in an optional renewal period if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, and penalties for early termination of a lease unless the Company is reasonably certain not to terminate early. |
The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension, or termination option.
When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right of-use asset or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases of equipment that have a lease term of twelve months or less and leases of low-value assets, including IT equipment. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets are measured at cost less any amortization and accumulated impairment losses. These intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if there are indicators that intangible assets may be impaired as described in the Impairment of non-financial assets policy.
Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Intellectual property identified upon business combination |
| - |
Intellectual property acquired from third-parties | ||
Customer relationships | ||
Brands | ||
Deferred development costs | ||
Trademarks | - | |
Gaming licences | over the term of the licence |
Trademarks and gaming licences are classified under “Other” in the intangible assets disclosure note (Note 13).

Intangible assets (continued)
The Company capitalizes the costs of intangible assets if and only if:
- | it is probable that the expected future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the entity; and |
- | the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. |
Certain costs incurred in connection with the development of intellectual property relating to proprietary technology are capitalized to intangible assets as development costs. Intangible assets are recorded at cost, which consists of directly attributable costs necessary to create such intangible assets, less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The costs mainly include the salaries paid to the software developers and consulting fees.
These costs are recognized as development costs assets when the following criteria are met:
- | it is technically feasible to complete the software product so that it will be available for use; |
- | management intends to complete the software product; |
- | it can be demonstrated how the software product will generate future economic benefits; |
- | adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the products are available; and |
- | the expenditure attributable to the software product during its development can be reliably measured. |
Goodwill
Goodwill arising in a business combination is recognized as an asset at the date that control is acquired. Goodwill is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if there are indicators that goodwill may be impaired as described in the Impairment of non-financial assets policy.
Impairment of non-financial assets
At each statement of financial position date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its non-financial assets to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset is then tested for impairment by comparing its recoverable amount to its carrying value. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually.
For the purpose of impairment testing, assets, including right-of-use assets, are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets. This grouping is referred to as a cash generating unit ("CGU").
Corporate assets, which include head office facilities and distribution centres, do not generate separate cash inflows. Corporate assets are tested for impairment at the minimum grouping of CGUs to which the corporate assets can be reasonably and consistently allocated. Goodwill arising from a business combination is tested for impairment at the minimum grouping of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

2SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Impairment of non-financial assets (continued)
The recoverable amount of a CGU or CGU grouping is the higher of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows from the CGU or CGU grouping, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the CGU or CGU grouping. If the CGU or CGU grouping includes right-of-use assets in its carrying amount, the pre-tax discount rate reflects the risks associated with the exclusion of lease payments from the estimated future cash flows. The fair value less costs to sell is based on the best information available to reflect the amount that could be obtained from the disposal of the CGU or CGU grouping in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties, net of estimates of the costs of disposal.
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of a CGU or CGU grouping exceeds its recoverable amount. For asset impairments other than goodwill, the impairment loss reduces the carrying amounts of the non-financial assets in the CGU on a pro-rata basis, up to an asset’s individual recoverable amount. Any loss identified from goodwill impairment testing is first applied to reduce the carrying amount of goodwill allocated to the CGU grouping, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other non-financial assets in the CGU or CGU grouping on a pro-rata basis.
For assets other than goodwill, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Upon initial recognition, financial instruments are measured at fair value plus or minus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial instruments that are not classified as fair value through profit or loss.
Financial instruments – classification and measurement
The classification and measurement approach for financial assets reflect the business model in which assets are managed and their cash flow characteristics. Financial assets are classified and measured based on these categories: amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI"), or fair value through profit and loss ("FVTPL"). A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as FVTPL:
- | the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and |
- | the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. |
A financial asset is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
- | the financial asset is held within a business model in which assets are managed to achieve a particular objective by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and |

Financial instruments - classification and measurement (continued)
- | the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. |
A financial asset shall be measured at FVTPL unless it is measured at amortized cost or at FVOCI.
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Company identifies changes in its business model in managing financial assets.
Financial liabilities are classified and measured based on two categories: amortized cost or FVTPL.
Fair values are based on quoted market prices where available from active markets, otherwise fair values are estimated using valuation methodologies, primarily discounted cash flows taking into account external market inputs where possible.
The amortized cost of a financial asset or liability is the amount at which the financial asset or liability is measured at initial recognition, minus principal payments, plus or minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of any difference between the initial amount recognized and the maturity amount, minus any reduction for impairment.
The following table summarizes the classification and measurement of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities:
Asset / Liability |
| Classification / Measurement |
Cash and cash equivalents | FVTPL | |
Trade and other receivables | Amortized cost | |
Consideration receivable | FVTPL | |
Other assets | Amortized cost | |
Trade payables and other liabilities | Amortized cost | |
Deferred and contingent consideration | FVTPL | |
Lease obligations on right of use assets | Amortized cost | |
Other non-current liabilities | FVTPL / FVOCI |
Financial instruments – valuation
The determination of the fair value of financial instruments is performed by the Company’s treasury and financial reporting departments on a quarterly basis. There was no change in the valuation techniques applied to financial instruments during the current year.
The carrying amounts reported for cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, consideration receivable, trade payables and other liabilities, and deferred and contingent consideration approximate fair value because of the immediate short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying value of lease obligations on right of use assets approximates the fair value based on rates currently available from financial institutions and various lenders.
Gains and losses on FVTPL financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in net earnings in the period in which they are incurred. Settlement date accounting is used to account for the purchase and sale of financial assets. Gains or losses between the trade date and settlement date on FVTPL financial assets are recorded in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

Financial instruments – derecognition
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to receive cash flows and benefits from the financial asset expire, or if the Company transfers the control or substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset to another party. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial asset and the sum of the consideration received and receivable is recognized in earnings before income taxes.
Financial liabilities are derecognized when obligations under the contract expire, are discharged, or cancelled. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in earnings before income taxes.
Financial instruments – impairment
The Company applies a forward-looking expected credit loss ("ECL") model at each reporting date to financial assets measured at amortized cost or those measured at FVOCI, except for investments in equity instruments. The ECL model outlines a three-stage approach to reflect the increase in credit risks of a financial instrument:
- | Stage 1 is comprised of all financial instruments that have not had a significant increase in credit risks since initial recognition or that have low credit risk at the reporting date. The Company is required to recognize impairment for Stage 1 financial instruments based on the expected losses over the expected life of the instrument arising from loss events that could occur during the 12 months following the reporting date. |
- | Stage 2 is comprised of all financial instruments that have had a significant increase in credit risks since initial recognition but that do not have objective evidence of a credit loss event. For Stage 2 financial instruments the impairment is recognized based on the expected losses over the expected life of the instrument arising from loss events that could occur over the expected life. The Company is required to recognize a lifetime ECL for Stage 2 financial instruments. |
- | Stage 3 is comprised of all financial instruments that have objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date. The Company is required to recognize impairment based on a lifetime ECL for Stage 3 financial instruments. The ECL model applied to financial assets require judgment, assumptions, and estimations on changes in credit risks, forecasts of future economic conditions and historical information on the credit quality of the financial asset. Consideration of how changes in economic factors affect ECLs are determined on a probability-weighted basis. |
The carrying amount of the financial asset or group of financial assets are reduced through the use of impairment allowance accounts. In periods subsequent to the impairment where the impairment loss has decreased, and such decrease can be related objectively to conditions and changes in factors occurring after the impairment was initially recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed. The impairment reversal is limited to the lesser of the decrease in impairment or the extent that the carrying amount of the financial asset at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.

Deferred and contingent consideration
Prior to January 18, 2021, the Company had deferred and contingent consideration payable to the vendor of Oryx Gaming. Between December 20, 2018, and November 13, 2020, earnout payments were agreed based upon a multiple of EBITDA in financial years ended December 31, 2019, and December 31, 2020 with a minimum amount payable in each twelve-month period. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation. In each reporting period the present value of the deferred and contingent consideration payable was measured by discounting achieved and forecasted EBITDA by applying the Company’s weighted average cost of capital. A Black-Scholes calculation was then applied to account for probability of payout and to determine present value of payout after counter-party risk.
Prior to the next remeasurement period an accretion expense was recorded in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss as the discount was unwound towards the reporting date. Upon remeasurement, any gain or loss on remeasurement was also recorded in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.
On November 13, 2020, the Company entered into an amending agreement with the vendor of Oryx Gaming whereby the second payment of deferred and contingent consideration was agreed at a fixed cash value and, following shareholder agreement on November 27, 2020, could be settled in fixed amount of Common Shares. As the payment can only be settled by way of Common Shares, there is no obligation of the Company to deliver cash or cash equivalents, and the underlying fair value of the liability and number of Common Shares is fixed, the payment qualifies as an equity instrument and was recorded as shares to be issued in the consolidated statements of changes in equity. On January 18, 2021, the agreed fixed number of Common Shares was issued from treasury to the vendor and the balance recorded in shares to be issued was transferred to the share capital account.
Short term employee benefits
Short term employee benefits include wages, salaries, compensated absences, and bonuses. Short term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are recognized in operating income as the related service is provided or capitalized if the service rendered is in connection with the creation of an intangible asset. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short term cash bonus plans if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Long term employee benefits
Long term employee benefits include severance pay upon retirement and awards for years of service for certain employees. Liabilities towards severance pay and awards for years of service are determined via actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method at the reporting date with liabilities towards severance pay being recognised at FVTPL and liabilities towards awards of years of service being recognised at FVOCI. Actuarial gains and losses in service awards are recognised immediately in Net Loss while actuarial gains and losses in severance pay are recognised in Other Comprehensive Loss.

Share based compensation
The Company has stock option plans for directors, officers, employees, and consultants. Each tranche of an award is considered a separate award with its own vesting period and grant date fair value. The fair value of each tranche is measured at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. In addition, the Company also has deferred share unit (“DSU”), restricted share unit (“RSU”) and performance share unit (“PSU”) plans for directors, officers, employees, and consultants. The fair value of each unit is measured as the share price on date of grant with
Compensation expense is recognized over each tranche’s vesting period, based on the number of awards expected to vest, with the offset credited to contributed surplus. The number of awards expected to vest is reviewed quarterly, with any impact being recognized immediately. When options are exercised, the amount received is credited to share capital and the fair value attributed to these options is transferred from contributed surplus to share capital. In the case of DSUs, RSUs or PSUs, only the fair value attributed to these options is transferred from contributed surplus to share capital.
Equity
Shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares are recognized as a deduction from equity. Contributed surplus includes amounts in connection with conversion options embedded in compound financial instruments, share based compensation and the value of expired options and warrants. Deficit includes all current and prior period income and losses.
Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at the date of issuance. If and when warrants ultimately expire, the applicable amounts are transferred to contributed surplus.
3CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments in applying the Company’s accounting policies that affect the reported amounts and disclosures made in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
Within the context of these consolidated financial statements, a judgment is a decision made by management in respect of the application of an accounting policy, a recognized or unrecognized financial statement amount and/or note disclosure, following an analysis of relevant information that may include estimates and assumptions. Estimates and assumptions are used mainly in determining the measurement of balances recognized or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and are based on a set of underlying data that may include management’s historical experience, knowledge of current events and conditions and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Management continually evaluates the estimates and judgments it uses.
The following are the accounting policies subject to judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty that the Company believes could have the most significant impact on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2.

Impairment of non-financial assets (property and equipment, right-of-use assets, intangible assets and goodwill) (continued)
- | Judgments made in relation to accounting policies applied |
Management is required to use judgment in determining the grouping of assets to identify their CGUs for the purposes of testing property and equipment, intangible assets and right-of-use assets for impairment. Judgment is further required to determine appropriate groupings of CGUs for the level at which goodwill and intangible assets are tested for impairment.
The Company has determined that Oryx Gaming and Wild Streak are two separate CGUs for the purposes of property and equipment, intangible assets and right-of-use asset impairment testing. For the purpose of goodwill impairment testing, CGUs are grouped at the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. In addition, judgment is used to determine whether a triggering event has occurred requiring an impairment test to be completed.
- | Key sources of estimation |
In determining the recoverable amount of a CGU or a group of CGUs, various estimates are employed. The Company determines fair value less costs to sell using such estimates as market rental rates for comparable properties, recoverable operating costs for leases with tenants, non-recoverable operating costs, discount rates, capitalization rates and terminal capitalization rates. The Company determines value in use by using estimates including projected future revenues, earnings and capital investment consistent with strategic plans presented to the Board. Discount rates are consistent with external industry information reflecting the risk associated with the specific cash flows.
Impairment of accounts receivable
In each stage of the ECL impairment model, impairment is determined based on the probability of default, loss given default, and expected exposure to loss at default. The application of the ECL model requires management to apply the following significant judgments, assumptions, and estimations:
- | movement of impairment measurement between the three stages of the ECL model, based on the assessment of the increase in credit risks on accounts receivables. The assessment of changes in credit risks includes qualitative and quantitative factors of the accounts, such as historical credit loss experience and external credit scores; |
- | thresholds for significant increase in credit risks based on changes in probability of default over the expected life of the instrument relative to initial recognition; and |
- | forecasts of future economic conditions. |

3CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS (CONTINUED)
Leases
- | Judgments made in relation to accounting policies applied |
Management exercises judgment in determining the appropriate lease term on a lease-by-lease basis. Management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise a renewal option or to not exercise a termination option including investments in major leaseholds and past business practice and the length of time remaining before the option is exercisable. The periods covered by renewal options are only included in the lease term if management is reasonably certain to renew. Management considers reasonably certain to be a high threshold. Changes in the economic environment or changes in the office rental industry may impact management’s assessment of lease term, and any changes in management’s estimate of lease terms may have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position and consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.
- | Key sources of estimation |
In determining the carrying amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, the Company is required to estimate the incremental borrowing rate specific to each leased asset or portfolio of leased assets if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determined. Management determines the incremental borrowing rate using a base risk-free interest rate estimated by reference to the bond yield with an adjustment that reflects the Company’s credit rating, the security, lease term and value of the underlying leased asset, and the economic environment in which the leased asset operates. The incremental borrowing rates are subject to change due to changes in the business and macroeconomic environment.
Warrants and share options

- | Key sources of estimation |
In determining the fair value of warrants and share options, the Company is required to estimate the future volatility of the market value of the Company’s shares by reference to its historical volatility or comparable companies over the previous years, a risk-free interest rate estimated by reference to the Government of Canada bond yield, and a dividend yield of

Goodwill recognised upon acquisition of Wild Streak LLC (Note 5) | ||
As at December 31, 2021 |
The carrying amount of goodwill is attributed to the Oryx Gaming and Wild Streak CGUs. The Company completed its annual impairment tests for goodwill as at December 31, 2021 and concluded that there was no impairment.
Key Assumptions

The cash flow projections used in estimating the recoverable amounts are generally consistent with results achieved historically adjusted for anticipated growth. The Company believes that any reasonably possible change in key assumptions on which the recoverable amounts were based would not cause the aggregate carrying amount to exceed the aggregate recoverable amount of the CGUs.

As a result of holding and issuing financial instruments, the Company is exposed to certain risks. The following is a description of those risks and how the exposures are managed.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to generate or obtain sufficient cash and cash equivalents in a cost-effective manner to fund its obligations as they come due. The Company will experience liquidity risks if it fails to maintain appropriate levels of cash and cash equivalents, is unable to access sources of funding or fails to appropriately diversify sources of funding. If any of these events were to occur, they could adversely affect the financial performance of the Company.
The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place by which it anticipates and determines the funds required to support its normal operating requirements. The Company coordinates this planning and budgeting process with its financing activities through its capital management process. The Company holds sufficient cash and cash equivalents and working capital, maintained through stringent cash flow management, to ensure sufficient liquidity is maintained. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

Foreign currency exchange risk
The Company’s financial statements are presented in EUR; however, a portion of the Company’s net assets and operations are denominated in other currencies, particularly Canadian and US dollars. Such net assets are translated into EUR at the foreign currency exchange rate in effect at the reporting date, and operations at the foreign currency exchange rates that approximate the rates in effect at the dates when such items are recognized. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign currency translation gains and losses, which are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
The Company is also exposed to risk on transaction in currencies other than its functional currency resulting in realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and loss which are recorded in other operational costs. The Company estimates that an appreciation of the EUR of
The Company has no derivative instruments in the form of futures contracts and forward contracts to manage its current and anticipated exposure to fluctuations in EUR exchange rates.
Credit risk
The Company is exposed to credit risk resulting from the possibility that counterparties could default on their financial obligations to the Company including cash and cash equivalents, other assets and accounts receivable. Failure to manage credit risk could adversely affect the financial performance of the Company.
The risk related to cash and cash equivalents is reduced by policies and guidelines that require that the Company enters into transactions only with counterparties or issuers that have a minimum long term “BBB” credit rating from a recognized credit rating agency. The Company mitigates the risk of credit loss relating to accounts receivable by evaluating the creditworthiness of new customers and establishes a provision for expected credit losses. The Company applies the simplified approach to provide for expected credit losses as prescribed by IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, which permits the use of the lifetime expected loss provision for all accounts receivable. The expected credit loss provision is based on the Company’s historical collections and loss experience and incorporates forward-looking factors, where appropriate.

The United Kingdom losses are carried forward indefinitely unless subject to certain restrictions and are now classified in the current year as discontinued operations as unrecognized deferred income tax assets. The deductible temporary differences do not expire under current income tax legislation. Deferred income tax assets were not recognized in respect of these items because it is not probable that future taxable income will be available to the Company to utilize the benefits.
