Bragg Gaming Group Announces Further Restructuring to Accelerate Path to Cash Generation and a More Focused Business

Additional reduction of approximately 19% of global workforce expected to deliver ~€6 million in incremental annualized cost savings, on top of measures announced in January 2026

TORONTO, July 9, 2026 /CNW/ – Bragg Gaming Group Inc. (NASDAQ: BRAG) (TSX: BRAG) (“bragg” or the “Company“), a leading iGaming content and technology provider, today announced a further set of organizational and operational measures designed to improve its cost structure, sharpen its strategic focus, and accelerate its path to becoming a sustainable cash-generative business.

The measures include a reduction of approximately 19% of the Company’s global workforce. bragg anticipates annualized cash savings from these measures of approximately €6 million once fully implemented. These savings are anticipated to be incremental to the approximately €4.5 million in annualized cash savings anticipated in connection with the strategic restructuring previously announced on January 8, 2026 (the “Prior Restructuring“). Taken together, these measures are expected to deliver approximately €10.5 million of annualized cash savings.

The Company expects to incur costs related of approximately €0.6 million, associated with personnel-related termination costs, in the second half of 2026 in connection with the restructuring measures announced today, which costs are incremental to the expected costs of the Prior Restructuring.

Together, these steps position bragg as a leaner, more focused organization concentrated on its core technology, content, and platform products, and better structured to capitalize on growth opportunities as the global iGaming industry continues to regulate and mature.

“We believe that the steps we took at the start of the year were the right ones for the business, and today we are going further,” said Matevž Mazij, Chief Executive Officer at bragg. “These measures are designed to deliver focus, discipline, execution and cash generation. By combining a more focused organization with the acceleration of our AI-First transformation, we are structurally improving our costs while continuing to protect the technology, content and people that drive our competitive advantage. The measures announced today build directly on the restructuring we announced in January and move us decisively toward sustained cash generation — leaving bragg leaner, sharper and well positioned for growth and the market consolidation opportunities we see ahead as the industry further regulates. I want to sincerely thank the colleagues who are leaving bragg for their dedication and contribution.”
