Ontario

Playgon is in its final stages for the launch of our VegasLounge in Ontario, and reiterates its expectaton for multiple customer launches going live in the current quarter. We faced delays due to regulatory and integration complexities, but these issues have been resolved, allowing us to move forward confidently. We have secured commitments from several Tier 1 brands to license our product, and these partnerships will be announced once our tables are live on the customers' sites. Ontario has quickly established itself as a top regulated market in North America in just 2 years.

Italy

We have finalized heads of terms with an Italian focused content aggregator and upon completing the final stages of integrating and testing, we anticipate our first customer launches through this partnership in Q3 this year, at which time the Company will provide a further update into this lucrative Italian gaming market.

Italy is the second biggest regulated online gaming market in Europe.
