Background and rationale
FSport AB is an innovative media and platform company with a Swedish gaming license. The Company delivers qualified gaming traffic to leading operators in Sweden and the USA and offers sports betting on its proprietary platform.

The global iGaming market continues to grow and is estimated to reach a market value of USD 153.57 billion by 2030. Sports betting is the largest category within iGaming. The wide range of live sports offers the opportunity to create engaging and interactive experiences and fulfills the need for targeted information around sports betting. These factors create broad opportunities for commercialization through the Company’s services.

Over the past year, the Company has made progress in strengthening its position in the gaming market. By expanding its presence in digital channels and broadening its range of self-produced media content in digital sports media, the Company has improved its competitiveness. The Company is therefore well-positioned to capitalize on the opportunities offered by the digital transformation in sports media.

In the Swedish gaming market, the Company holds gaming licenses, which opens up opportunities for commercial collaborations with partners in the media and entertainment sector in Sweden.

The Company has implemented a comprehensive savings program that has optimized its cost structure without negatively impacting commercial functions. This has resulted in a cost-efficient organization. With these changes, the Company is now better equipped to capitalize on its commercial opportunities and continue its growth.

The Company is now conducting a Rights Issue to continue the Company’s operations and development of overall objectives.

Use of proceeds from the Rights Issue
Upon full subscription in the Rights Issue, the Company will receive approximately SEK 4 million before issue costs. These funds are intended to be used for the following purposes:

  • Development of the Company’s content and technology to diversify the product and service offering, approximately 65%.
  • Expansion of the Company’s marketing, distribution, and commercial reach in both existing and new markets, approximately 35%.
