Gaming Franchise The Group's Gaming Franchise business comprises direct management of gaming halls and concession activities for VLTs and AWPs , managed according to different types of business models depending on the level of integration in the value chain. These business models range from the sole interconnection of machines prescribed by the concession to the ownership and management of the machines and the gaming halls. As of 30 September 2025, the Group's Gaming Franchise business included 18,301 operative VLTs and 64,019 operative AWPs. For the nine months ended 30 September ‌1 Based on revenues. ‌2 Including 8 betting rights of Ricreativo B S.p.A.. ‌3 The figure as of 30 September 2025 does not consider AWP machines that the group holds in inventory. 2025, there were 125 gaming halls under direct management of the Group, which leveraged the Group's proprietary distribution formats and brands. The Gaming Franchise segment generated bets of Euro 8,048.5 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2025, compared to Euro 8,167.3 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2024. The following paragraphs provide more specific details regarding the i) AWP, ii) VLT and iii) Retail and Street Operations product divisions. Amusement With Prize machines (AWPs) AWPs are relatively easy to play and offer players a good level of interaction, through the use of a graphical reel containing pictures. The maximum cost of each single game is Euro 1.00 and each game may last between four and thirteen seconds. Any winnings must be distributed immediately after the game (only) in coins and jackpots are not permitted4. The machine must calculate winnings in an unpredictable way over a cycle of a maximum of 140,000 games. Video Lottery Terminals (VLTs) VLTs are similar to slot machines, except that they are connected to a centralized computer system that determines the outcome of each wager by using a random number generator located inside the terminal. Relevant legislation requires that bet per game may range from a minimum of Euro 0.50 to a maximum of Euro 10.00, with payouts of up to Euro 5,000.00 as well as the chance to win jackpots of up to Euro 500,000.005. The Group currently offers four VLT platforms (Spielo, Novomatic, Inspired and WMG). Management of owned gaming halls and AWPs (Retail and Street Operations) Since 2012, the Group has pursued a strategy of vertical integration involving the direct management of owned gaming halls ("Retail"), with such business being subsequently supplemented by direct management of owned AWPs ("Street Operations"). As of 30 September 2025, the Group directly manages 125 halls and 49,132 3 owned AWPs. ‌4 By law, monetary winnings must not exceed Euro 100 for a single play and as of January 2020, the minimum pay-out is set by law at 65.0% (Law No. 160 of 27 December 2019 - the so-called "2020 Budget Law" - effective as of 1 January 2020). For details regarding the evolution of PREU flat-tax rates, see the relevant comments in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2024. ‌5 As of January 2020, the percentage of bets paid out as winnings may not be lower than 83.0% (Law No. 160 of 27 December 2019 - the so-called "2020 Budget Law" - effective as of 1 January 2020).

Disclaimer This document contains forward-looking statements (in particular in the sections headed "Foreseeable operating performance" and "Significant events occurring after the reporting date") which are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. Many of these risks and uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the company's ability to control or estimate precisely, such as future market conditions, currency fluctuations, the behavior of other market participants, the actions of regulators and other factors. Therefore, the Company actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, economic conditions globally, social, political, economic and regulatory developments or changes in economic or technological trends or conditions in Italy and internationally. Consequently, the Company makes no representation, whether expressed or implied, as to the conformity of the actual results with those projected in the forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company speak only as of the date they are made. Macroeconomic context The trade deals signed by the United States with the European Union and other trading partners are setting out a new framework for trade relations. The situation is still unfolding and the uncertainty over trade policies continues to weigh on the outlook for the global economy in the medium term. The higher tariffs contributed to a decline in international trade in the second quarter. In the spring months, euro-area GDP decelerated sharply due to the fading of the extraordinary boost in US demand that had sustained it in the first quarter, as a result of the frontloading of purchases ahead of tariffs taking effect. GDP growth was subdued in the summer as well.6 At its July and September meetings, the European Central Bank Governing Council kept its key interest rates unchanged. The cost of credit to firms declined further between May and August, owing to the pass-through of the previous easing of monetary policy. Despite this decline, loan growth remained moderate, reflecting weak demand and trade tensions. Italy's GDP fell slightly in the second quarter, owing to the sharp decline in exports, as was the case in other euro-area countries. The further increase in investment - thanks to more favourable borrowing conditions, tax incentives and NRRP measures - was accompanied by a slight rise in consumption, driven by improved household confidence and resilient labour income. Activity grew in services and construction, while it remained weak in manufacturing.

Prices of food products have accelerated. As of 30 September 2024 2025 Inflation rate +0.7% +1.6% As shown in the graph9 below, the unemployment rate as of 31 August 2025 (latest data available) was lower than that of the same date in 2024. Employment remained broadly unchanged in the second quarter, while hours worked per capita increased slightly. ‌6 Source: Bank of Italy - Economic Bulletin No. 4 - 2025. ‌7 Source: Istat - Monthly note on the progress of the Italian economy - July - August 2025. ‌8 Source: Istat - Press Release - Consumer Price - September 2025. ‌9 Source: Istat - Employment and Unemployment - August 2025. Key events occurring during the period Refinancing 2025 On 13 May 2025, Lottomatica Group S.p.A. issued senior secured notes for a principal amount of Euro 1,100 million (the " May 2025 Notes "), bearing interest at a fixed annual rate of 4.875%, to be paid semiannually, commencing on 1 November 2025 and maturing in January 2031. Proceeds from the May 2025 Notes were used to finance (i) the early repayment of the senior secured notes of Euro 500 million bearing interest equal to the sum of the three-month EURIBOR rate (with a 0% floor) plus 4% per annum (" December 2023 Notes ") and the senior secured notes of Euro 565 million bearing interest at a fixed annual rate of 7.125%, issued on 1 June 2023 (the " June 2023 Notes " and together with the December 2023 Notes, the " 2025 Notes Repaid "), in addition to accrued and unpaid interest; and (ii) the make-whole payment of the June 2023 Notes due to early repayment amounting to Euro 21.0 million. With reference to the Refinancing 2025, the monetary costs incurred for the related issuance amounted to Euro 38.9 million, mainly relating to: professional fees related to the issuance of May 2025 Notes amounting to Euro 13.3 million; make-whole of the June 2023 Notes amounting to Euro 21.0 million; financial charges arising from the closing of hedging derivatives following the early repayment of the December 2023 Notes, amounting to Euro 4.0 million. It should be noted that the Refinancing 2025 also resulted in non-monetary costs mainly due to the acceleration of the amortized cost on the ancillary charges related to the 2025 Notes Repaid amounting to Euro 22.0 million, which were fully recognized during 2025 following the related early repayment. Furthermore, on 23 April 2025, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement agreement of the existing revolving credit facility. For further details, see Note 9.11.2 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.

Online The following table provides certain key performance indicators for the Online segment for the periods indicated: As of and for the nine months ended 30 September 2025 2024 Unique active users* 1,891,493 1,679,185 Total online bet (in millions of Euro) 21,628.3 17,121.6 * Unique Active Users refers to the number of customers who have carried out, with one or more game accounts in their name, at least one bets on one or more Online products (not only sports betting) during that period. The Online segment generated bets of Euro 21,628.3 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2025, an increase of 26.3% compared to the corresponding period of the previous year (Euro 17,121.6 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2024). The Online operating segment benefited from the continued expansion of the Online market and by the Group's increased market share across all segments reinforcing its leadership position within this segment as well as the full consolidation of PWO for the nine months ended 30 September 2025, compared to only five months in the same period of 2024. It is also affected by the impact of the UEFA European Championship held in the second quarter of 2024, which was not fully compensated by the impact of the FIFA Club World Cup held in the second quarter of 2025. It should be noted that, starting from May 2025, PWO has been involved in the gaming platform migration process, which has been completed at the end of July 2025 which has resulted in a temporary slowdown in its market share during the second and third quarter of 2025. The overall growth in bets was driven by an increase in: iGaming, from Euro 13,364.3 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2024 to Euro 17,304.3 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2025; iSports, from Euro 2,661.1 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2024 to Euro 3,082.8 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2025; Other online gaming, from Euro 1,096.3 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2024 to Euro 1,241.2 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2025. In addition to the drivers noted above, key contributing factors to growth of the Online segment included: the increase in the online games offer; continuous technological improvements such as graphic and functional refactoring of the deposits and withdrawals section, inclusion of virtual games in the sports betting app, improvement of customer experience on all digital assets; the review / strengthening of the CRM strategy through the implementation of retention/reactivation promotional activities and strengthening of loyalty engagement initiatives implemented by the Group; the optimization of acquisitions from the retail channel through the introduction of focused marketing policies and the improvement of network; the unification of the gaming platform for both Group brands; and joining new gaming networks for poker and skill games. Online segment revenues for the nine months ended 30 September 2025 amounted to Euro 688.9 million, an increase of Euro 145.3 million compared to Euro 543.6 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2024. The main drivers for the increase were the same as the drivers described above for the increase in bet, in addition to favorable sports betting payout recorded in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period of the previous year. Sports Franchise The following table provides certain key performance indicators for the Sports Franchise segment for the periods indicated: As of and for the nine months ended 30 September 2025 2024 Number of licenses/concessions* 4,024 4,024 Number of active points of sale (shops and corner) 3,766 3,707 Average number of points of sale in operations (shops and corner) 3,753 3,340 Sports Franchise bet (in millions of Euro) 2,805.3 2,500.6 * Excluding the 26 licenses related to horse racing in 2025 and 2024.

Sports Franchise bets increased from Euro 2,500.6 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2024 to Euro 2,805.3 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2025. The increase was mainly due to the full consolidation of PWO for the nine months ended 30 September 2025, compared to only five months in the same period of 2024 as well as the effect of the implementation of the project POS, which enabled the Group to identify and include within its network the best-performing point of sales. Also for the Sports Franchise segment, positive growth factors are partially offset by the negative impact of the UEFA European Championship held in the second quarter of 2024, which was not compensated by the impact of the FIFA Club World Cup held in the second quarter of 2025. Sports Franchise revenues amounted to Euro 381.7 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2025, an increase of Euro 68.5 million or 21.9% compared to Euro 313.2 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2024.
