GAN Positioned for Strong Revenue Growth Commencing in 2018 as Bill to Legalize Real Money Internet Gaming in Pennsylvania Becomes Law

London & Dublin | October 31, 2017: GAN plc ("GAN" or the "Company") a leading B2B supplier of Internet gaming enterprise software-as-a-service solutions to the US land-based casino Industry, today announces that HB 271, a bill that includes provisions for the legalisation of full real money Internet gaming in Pennsylvania, was signed into law by the Governor of Pennsylvania yesterday. HB 271 was passed by the Senate in Pennsylvania on October 25, by the House of Representatives on October 26 and signed into law by Governor Tom Wolf on October 30.

Pennsylvania is the second largest casino market in the United States and becomes the fourth State where Americans will be permitted to undertake Internet gaming. The Pennsylvanian regulated Internet gaming market is now expected to commence in H1 2018 and GAN is positioned for strong revenue growth from that market commencing in 2018.

Management Commentary

Dermot Smurfit, CEO of GAN commented:

"The signing into law yesterday of House Bill 271 provides full certainty that real money Internet gaming is coming to Pennsylvania in 2018. Governor Tom Wolf elected to sign this major gaming expansion bill in order to start the clock ticking as soon as possible. GAN is positioned for strong revenue growth in 2018 both prior to and following the commencement of the new Pennsylvanian Internet gaming market in H1 2018 as the first land-based casino operators 'ready to go' are likely permitted to move online first. GAN is very well prepared for Pennsylvania to regulate. We have a full Internet gaming system already deployed inside a leading Pennsylvania casino, hold a full gaming license in New Jersey as well as being a registered authorized gaming services provider in Pennsylvania since 2014."
