provide us with information so we may better understand your disclosure.
Please respond to these comments within ten business days by providing the requested

After reviewing your response to these comments, we may have additional comments.
Form 20-F for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2022
Business Overview, page 32
1.We note your disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA margin. Please revise to provide disclosure
of the most directly comparable IFRS measure with equal or greater prominence. Refer to
Item 10(e)(1)(i)(A) of Regulation S-K.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations, page 45
2.We note your disclosure on page F-15 that revenue-share fees are a percentage of the net
gaming revenues an operator generates over the lifetime of the referred player. It is not
clear from your disclosure the extent to which revenue recognized in a particular period
results from referrals in the current year or referrals from prior years. Please consider
whether quantification of revenue from new and pre-existing referrals would provide
meaningful information to investors about the duration of your income streams and the

extent to which your business relies on new referrals for the maintenance and growth of
revenue levels.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition, page F-15
3.You disclose that negative revenue share amounts usually do not carry over into
subsequent months. Please describe for us the nature of negative revenue share amounts.
18. Revenue, page F-41
4.We note that you earn performance marketing fees in the form of ongoing revenue-shares,
one-time fees, and a hybrid of these two forms. Please tell us your consideration of
disaggregating performance marketing fees along these lines, given the differences in the
nature and timing of these forms of fees.
Note 19. Operating Expenses
Sales and Marketing Expenses, page F-43
5.Please explain your consideration of classifying amortization of certain intangible assets
as cost of sales instead of 'Sales and marketing expenses.' In this regard, we note
you attribute the increase in amortization expense primarily to the acquisition of
RotoWire.com and BonusFinder.com in 2022, and their related domain names, apps, and
customer contracts on page 49, which appears related to cost of sales. Refer to SAB
Topic 11B.
6.Please disclose the nature of external content costs. Also, explain to us your consideration
of classification of external content as a component of cost of sales as these costs appear
integrally related to your revenue generating activities, particularly for RotoWire and
BonusFinder acquired in 2022. In this regard, we note that you earn revenue from
subscriptions.
In closing, we remind you that the company and its management are responsible for the
accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or
absence of action by the staff.
You may contact Robert Shapiro at 202-551-3273 or Lyn Shenk at 202-551-3380 with
any questions.
Sincerely,
Division of Corporation Finance
