IRVINE, Calif., March 13, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GAN Limited (NASDAQ: GAN) (the "Company" or "GAN"), a leading North American B2B technology provider of real money internet gaming solutions and a leading International B2C operator of Internet sports betting, today reported its unaudited financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Compared to Fourth Quarter 2022

  • Total revenue of $30.7 million decreased 17%, or $6.2 million, compared to the prior year quarter.

  • B2B segment revenue was $11.8 million versus $14.1 million. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in our contractual revenue rates related to the expiration of an exclusivity period with a B2B customer.

  • B2C segment revenue was $18.9 million versus $22.8 million. The decrease was primarily driven by increased activity from the World Cup occurring in the fourth quarter of 2022.

  • Total segment contribution was $20.9 million versus $26.9 million. The decrease was primarily driven by decreases in both the aforementioned factors in the B2C and B2B segment revenues.

  • Operating expenses were $29.5 million versus $172.4. The decrease was primarily related to a $137.1 million non-cash impairment charge during the quarter ended December 31, 2022. In addition, Sales & Marketing, Product & Technology, and General & Administrative all decreased from the prior year period, which included cost savings initiatives largely consisting of a reduction in headcount.

  • Net loss of $9.4 million versus $147.7 million. The improvement in net loss was driven primarily by the non-cash impairment charge of $137.1 million recorded in the prior year.

  • Adjusted EBITDA was $(3.9) million versus $(0.4) million, primarily related to a decrease in revenue, which was partially offset by cost savings initiatives largely consisting of a reduction in headcount.

  • B2C KPI’s during the year were impacted by the World Cup in the prior year period while the current year did not have any significant international sports events.

  • B2B Gross Operator Revenue ("GOR") totaled $384.7 million versus $365.8 million in the prior year quarter, a 5% increase. This increase was primarily driven by organic growth with our existing customer base in Pennsylvania, Michigan, New Jersey, and Connecticut.

  • Subsequent to quarter end, GAN shareholders approved the previously announced merger agreement and merger of GAN and a subsidiary of SEGA SAMMY CREATION INC., an affiliate of SEGA SAMMY HOLDINGS INC.
