Managed Gaming Solutions (Europe)

*calculated using underlying, non-rounded figures **restated

· Nektan continued to deliver strong growth in Q2 FY18 compared to Q1 FY18 and Q2 FY17, with NGR in the quarter increasing by 21.9% versus the previous quarter and 41.6% versus the same period last year.

· This is despite a slight drop in FTDs and a marginal increase in cash wagering from Q1 FY18, which are as a result of a deliberate focus by the Company on player quality and efficiency of spend resulting in a 37% saving in bonuses awarded in Q2 FY18 versus Q1 FY18.

· The Company launched 17 new sites and five new partners in Q2 FY18 and is currently operating a total of 94 brands from 51 partners with plans to launch up to 18 new sites from both existing and new partners during the current quarter to 31 March 2018 (Q3 FY18).

· Nektan launched a number of new games from existing and new vendors, including Evolution Gaming and IWG, taking the Group's total mobile games portfolio to over 450.

B2B

· The Company generated initial revenue from its B2B business during Q2 FY18 of £47k and now has five live deals.

· The platform deal previously announced with Tyche is expected to go live during January 2018 and to generate revenue during Q3 FY18.

On-Premise Gaming (North America)

· Respin, Nektan's US subsidiary recently re-branded as Rapid Games™, signed two further deals in Q2 FY18 and is in discussions with other land-based casinos regarding its on-premise solution.

Gary Shaw, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Nektan, said:

"Our core European business continued to progress as expected in Q2 FY18 with a number of further launches planned in Q3 FY18. Our strategy to move into B2B is paying off with initial revenue generated by the Company. We look forward to announcing further positive updates across Nektan's business over the next few months, including on our platform deal with Tyche and our US business."
