Bragg to embark on strategic review of the overall organization

Global gaming technology and content provider Bragg Gaming Group announces that Paul Godfrey, Chair of the Board of Directors, has been appointed to the role of Interim CEO of Bragg Gaming, effective November 15, 2021. Bragg founder and former Interim CEO Adam Arviv will take on the role of Special Advisor to the Chair and CEO. Oryx founder and Vice Chair of the Board of Directors of Bragg Matevž Mazij will also play an integral role in the organization. Richard Carter will step down from the CEO role, effective immediately.

The Board of Bragg Gaming has made the decision to embark upon a strategic review of the overall Company, including the immediate restructuring of the CEO role. The Company’s exceptional performance over the past six quarters includes consistently exceeding revenue and growth targets. While peers continue to trade and transact at significantly higher multiples, Bragg’s continued strong growth has yet to be reflected in the Company’s public market performance, and the Board has determined that a search for new CEO is required.

Paul Godfrey, Chair of the Board of Bragg, has agreed to take on the role of CEO until a replacement is named. Mr. Godfrey is a renowned business leader and Canadian politician, recently holding the role of President and CEO of Postmedia Network and continuing to act as Chair of Postmedia, a company he founded. Mr. Godfrey also previously held the roles of Publisher and CEO of Sun Media and President and CEO of the Toronto Blue Jays. He is a recipient of the Order of Canada and of the Order of Ontario.

“While the global online gaming industry continues to grow exponentially, the North American opportunity is a game changer,” said Mr. Godfrey.   “Bragg’s technology and content is well-positioned to take advantage of this new market’s potential and although Bragg’s operations have continued to outperform over recent quarters, the capital markets strategy has not translated into shareholder value. Developing this alignment will be our top priority and absolutely requires a strategic review.”

Bragg Gaming Group, a leading global B2B iGaming content and technology provider, announced it has reached an agreement with its lenders, certain entities controlled by Doug Fallon, to repay USD 5 million of its outstanding USD 7 million secured promissory note and to extend the maturity of the remaining USD 2 million until June 6, 2025 (the Note).

The company is in the process of securing a new revolving credit facility from a third-party lender. This facility is expected to offer more favorable terms than the existing Note, including lower borrowing costs and improved drawdown flexibility.

“This partial repayment and extension will further strengthen our balance sheet and reflects our confidence in the business. With a reduced need for working capital support, we’re focused on finalizing a new facility to secure standby credit, allowing for greater financial flexibility and enabling us to pursue strategic growth opportunities,” said Robbie Bressler, CFO of Bragg.

All other terms of the original Note remain unchanged. Bragg intends to repay the remaining USD 2 million balance on or before the amended June 6, 2025 maturity date.

Bragg Gaming Group announced the acquisition of a strategic equity stake in, and the signing of an exclusive content partnership with RAPIDPLAY LTD (RapidPlay), a specialist Brazilian game development studio renowned for its localized, high-performance online casino content tailored to Brazilian and the broader Latin American market.

Founded by a team of veteran iGaming experts with deep roots in the region, RapidPlay has rapidly built a reputation for delivering premium, culturally attuned casino content that resonates with local Brazilian and Latin American players.

Under the terms of the agreement, Bragg receives an equity stake in RapidPlay and has entered into an exclusive commercial distribution agreement with RapidPlay at standard market terms.

The agreement allows Bragg to integrate and offer RapidPlay’s full content portfolio through its expanding base of licensed Brazilian operators.

RapidPlay’s highly efficient cost development model for producing high-quality, localized content is particularly attractive to Bragg, as it supports rapid scalability and margin efficiency—especially valuable in emerging markets like Brazil and the broader LatAm market.

Pursuant to the terms of the agreement with RapidPlay, Bragg also has an option to acquire a controlling interest in RapidPlay, should future strategic conditions align.

All titles developed under this partnership will be powered by Fuze, Bragg’s proprietary engagement technology that features real-time gamification, player retention tools, and promotional capabilities — enhancing both player experience and operator performance.

This partnership builds on Bragg’s rapid expansion in Brazil, where it launched operations on January 1, 2025, and has already partnered with over one-third of the market’s licensed operators.

The Company’s São Paulo office, led by LatAm Regional Director Sara Mosallaee and Senior Account Manager Amanda Alexandrini, delivers fully localized support and expertise to operators across the region.

With Brazil’s newly regulated online casino market expected to generate USD 1.5 billion in 2025, growing to USD 3.7 billion by 2029, Bragg believes that the market could contribute up to 10% of the Company’s total revenue this year—underlining its strategic importance.

Neill Whyte, Chief Commercial Officer of Bragg Gaming Group, said: “This partnership with RapidPlay is more than just an investment — it’s a strategic move that strengthens our differentiated local content proposition.

“The studio combines creative excellence with operational efficiency, making it an ideal partner for our expansion efforts in the region.”

Rafael Roos Bordignon, CEO and Co-Founder of RapidPlay, said: “RapidPlay was founded to create genuinely Brazilian gaming experiences. Joining forces with Bragg gives us the scale and structure to do that with even greater impact. We’re excited to enter this next phase together.”
