CEO's Review
Q2 saw a solid quarter of delivery in line with expectations, finishing off the quarter with three launches to add to four in Q1 2025, taking the total launched in 2025 so far to seven launches, with a solid pipeline of launches to come during Q3 2025 and beyond. I am particularly excited to see the launch of our first operator in the Philippines, which is fast becoming a key focal market for us. There is significant potential to be realised from the opportunities within this region, and I anticipate both our partner and the market in general to deliver significant revenue upside in the near to mid-term.
Indeed, we see increasing potential not just in the APAC region but in the broader emerging markets, including LatAm, Eastern Europe and Africa, where iGaming regulation is evolving and creating substantial expansion opportunities for GiG. In these markets we intend to enter into larger, more strategic agreements with our partners, delivering a higher return on investment.
This strategy also aligns with increased investor interest from emerging markets as demonstrated by the €4.7 million directed equity issue completed in June, which has strengthened our balance sheet and will allow us to act swiftly on strategic investments and business opportunities in line with our growth strategy whilst adding new investors to our shareholder base. Following the end of the quarter, we announced that an additional subscription undertaking had been received for a total consideration of approximately €22 million. This will allow us to capitalise even further upon new market opportunities whilst adding additional support to our balance sheet enabling us to accelerate plans to execute on our business strategy.
I am delighted that following the end of the quarter, we have entered into a Heads of Terms to migrate a European Lottery's online casino vertical onto GiG's iGaming platform in H1-26. This is a significant milestone as not only does it represent the first Lottery win for the business, but it will also open up additional opportunities in this sector in the future and demonstrates further evidence that our technology is suited to both Tier 1 partners and market leaders in their respective regions.
Whilst I am pleased that we have launched seven partners during the first half of this year, this is not where we would have aspired to have been at this point of the year, reflecting current market dynamics. Our focus has been very much on ensuring quality delivery and partnering with the right customers; however, this has meant that the launch cadence has not been realised at the speed that we had anticipated. To expand upon this further, the market sentiment and regulatory developments surrounding Sweepstakes in the US has had a negative impact, meaning that some partners have adopted more caution in entering this market. This, coupled with regulatory and market readiness delays for some of our partners, has contributed to the postponement of certain launches during the period.
Once again, our cost control focus has delivered a sharp increase in both adjusted EBITDA and EBIT of €2.1 million and €2.9 million respectively, with GiG's adjusted EBITDA achieving €1.0 million for the quarter. This is a testament to the scalability of our business model, and we are beginning to realise the potential for margin generation within our operations.
Q2 saw another quarter of pipeline conversions, with three new commercial agreements signed alongside four new managed services agreements once again showcasing GiG's ability to win new contracts amongst a backdrop of delivering a market-leading product to our existing partners.
We are maintaining investment in both our product and sales execution to ensure that both our product and pipeline remain robust, and we continue to supply our partners with the very best in iGaming services and technology whilst attracting new, quality customers to our platform. The additional capital made available through the shareholder undertakings will support these initiatives and provide us with additional fuel for growth.
In the light of all these developments, we have reassessed our guidance for 2025 accordingly, and have also provided guidance for 2026 revenue and EBITDA. With our focus on key new markets that are delivering significant mid-term growth, alongside our strengthened balance sheet and corresponding ability to strategically target high quality, experienced partners, I am happy that we can now share our growth targets for the mid-term, as set out in our aforementioned guidance.
Overall, I am pleased with our progress in H1 2025 and am excited about what the future holds. Our strengthened financial position will enable us to make necessary investments in product development and new market opportunities which will position GiG for sustainable, long-term profitable growth; the future has never been brighter.
