Under the modified terms, the discretion to redeem the loans in equity or cash lies with Azerion Holding B.V. Following the de-SPAC transaction, the loans are redeemable by issuing shares in the capital of Azerion Group N.V. Since these loans are no longer redeemable by issuing shares in the capital of Azerion Holding B.V., they have been reclassified from other equity instruments.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td rowspan=\"3\"><strong>Reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA in millions of EUR<\/strong><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"7\"><strong>Q3<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"4\"><strong>2022<\/strong><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"3\"><strong>2021<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Azerion Holding B.V.<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Premium Games<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Platform<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Other<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Azerion Holding B.V.<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Premium Games<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Platform<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Profit \/ (loss) for the period<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(4.3)<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>2.4<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Income Tax expense<\/td>\n<td>1.1<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>0.1<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Profit \/ (loss) before tax<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(3.2)<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>2.5<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Net finance costs<\/td>\n<td>3.4<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>2.2<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Operating profit \/ (loss)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>0.2<\/td>\n<td>0.7<\/td>\n<td>0.6<\/td>\n<td>(1.1)<\/td>\n<td>4.7<\/td>\n<td>3.2<\/td>\n<td>1.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Depreciation &amp; Amortization<\/td>\n<td>9.5<\/td>\n<td>2.9<\/td>\n<td>6.5<\/td>\n<td>0.1<\/td>\n<td>9.3<\/td>\n<td>4.8<\/td>\n<td>4.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>EBITDA<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>9.7 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>3.6 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>7.1 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>(1.0) <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>14.0 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>8.0 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>6.0 <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Capital markets<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>0.9<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>De-SPAC related expenses<sup>1)<\/sup><\/td>\n<td>0.3<\/td>\n<td>0.1<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>0.2<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Other<\/td>\n<td>0.9<\/td>\n<td>0.1<\/td>\n<td>0.0<\/td>\n<td>0.8<\/td>\n<td>2.3<\/td>\n<td>1.0<\/td>\n<td>2.3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Acquisition expenses<\/td>\n<td>1.4<\/td>\n<td>0.2<\/td>\n<td>1.2<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>0.5<\/td>\n<td>0.2<\/td>\n<td>0.1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Restructuring<\/td>\n<td>0.1<\/td>\n<td>0.2<\/td>\n<td>(0.1)<\/td>\n<td>0.0<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Adjusted EBITDA<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>12.4 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>4.2 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>8.2 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>&#8211; <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>17.7 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>9.2 <\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>8.4 <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><sup>1)<\/sup> The De-SPAC related expenses relate to costs incurred on the legal merger of Azerion Holding B.V. and Azerion Group N.V.

The Azerion Holding B.V. Interim Unaudited Financial Results Q3 2022 are released as required by the terms and conditions of the listed Senior Secured Callable Fixed Rate Bonds (ISIN: SE0015837794).<\/p>\n<p>Azerion Group N.V.\u2019s main assets are the shares it holds in Azerion Holding B.V. and it does not have any material operational activities. Consequently, the Q3 2022 financial results of Azerion Holding B.V. as included in this communication are a reasonably reliable proxy for the Q3 2022 financial results of Azerion Group N.V., except that:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Current assets is EUR 1.1 million higher due to prepayments on insurance costs.<\/li>\n<li>Borrowings is EUR 15.0 million lower due to subordinated loans that are included in equity in Azerion Group N.V. as the loans can be settled with Azerion Group N.V. shares.<\/li>\n<li>Other liabilities is EUR 11.8 million higher mainly relating to a) Azerion Group N.V. warrants amounting to EUR 17.8 million recognized in Azerion Group N.V. and b) an offset in share options amounting to EUR 5.8 million recorded as equity in Azerion Group N.V. as those may be settled with Azerion Group N.V. shares. It should be noted that the counterparty in question claims that Azerion has breached the relevant SPA and disputes the right of Azerion to settle in shares. The dispute is likely to be subject to arbitration.<\/li>\n<li>In addition to the items impacting equity as mentioned above, the Azerion Group N.V. equity is EUR 10.5 million higher due to the issuance of treasury shares during Q3 2022, which also resulted in an EUR 10.5 million higher cash inflow from financing activities.<\/li>\n<li>Net finance costs is EUR 1.7 million higher due to a fair value loss related to an increase in the fair value of the Azerion Group N.V. warrants.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Legal merger<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On 28 October 2022 Azerion announced the successful completion of the written procedure requesting bondholders to approve the legal merger of the parent company Azerion Group N.V. and Azerion Holding B.V., with the main objective of simplifying and streamlining Azerion\u2019s financial reporting and other communications to the market. A written procedure, initiated on 30 September 2022, relating to Azerion Holding B.V.\u2019s senior secured bonds with ISIN SE0015837794, requested certain waivers and amendments to the terms and conditions of the bonds, including approval of the proposed legal merger of the parent company Azerion Group N.V. and Azerion Holding B.V. A sufficient number of bondholders participated in the written procedure in order to form a quorum, and a requisite majority of the bondholders voted in favour to approve the amendments.\u00a0\u00a0The amendments will become effective as soon as possible via an amendment and restatement agreement and the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent. Azerion intends to execute this legal merger on 31 December 2022 and publish one set of consolidated financial statements for 2022 for Azerion Group N.V., which will be the surviving

The non-IFRS financial measures, along with comparable IFRS measures, are used by Azerion\u2019s management to evaluate the business performance and are useful to investors. They may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as presented by other companies, nor should they be considered as an alternative to the historical financial results or other indicators of Azerion Holding B.V. and Azerion Group N.V.\u2019s cash flow based on IFRS. Even though the non-IFRS financial measures are used by management to assess Azerion Holding B.V. and Azerion Group N.V.\u2019s financial position, financial results and liquidity and these types of measures are commonly used by investors, they have important limitations as analytical tools, and the recipients should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Azerion Holding B.V. and Azerion Group N.V.\u2019s financial position or results of operations as reported under IFRS.<\/p>\n<p>For all definitions and reconciliations of non-IFRS financial measures please also refer to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=http:\/\/www.azerion.com\/investors&amp;source=gmail-html&amp;ust=1669877648982000&amp;usg=AOvVaw3Nd-O4LG5YznB8pUGo3Udo\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.azerion.com\/investors<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This report may contain forward-looking non-IFRS financial measures.

Moreover, estimating such IFRS financial measures with the required precision necessary to provide a meaningful reconciliation is extremely difficult and could not be accomplished without unreasonable effort.
