Key Takeaways for Investors

• First-ever quarterly GAAP profit is a milestone, but underlying operating income remains modest ($0.08M); sustained profitability will hinge on continued OpEx control and revenue scaling .
• Top-line contraction (−16% YoY) reflects deliberate market exits; expect near-term volatility in revenue as the company prioritizes higher-margin regulated markets .
• Tax dynamics mattered this quarter: a significant tax benefit (income tax expense of $(3.64)M) and a newly recognized deferred tax asset ($3.64M) contributed to GAAP net income; monitor future period tax normalization .
• Engagement metrics and product breadth are constructive: >6,000 games, >$146M wagers, and QoQ growth in active users and depositors, supporting a resilient core customer base .
• Ontario timing has shifted to H1 2026; while execution continues, the delay pushes out a major North American catalyst; trading implications may skew to reaction on pipeline updates and regulatory milestones .
• Leadership additions (new COO Jake Francis) and AI/ML data initiatives suggest ongoing operational maturation; watch for efficiency gains and improved BI driving marketing ROI and margin leverage .
• With Street consensus unavailable, focus on sequential fundamentals: continued Adjusted EBITDA margin progress (10% in Q3) and stabilization of revenue as regulated market ramp approaches .
