• Drayton serves as a gaming technology and content platform
• Gaming entrepreneur Matt Davey acquires a 10% stake in Bragg through the Drayton agreement
• Q1 2026 financial performance highlighted by a 33.3% year-over-year revenue surge in Brazil

Bragg Gaming Group, an iGaming content and platform technology provider based in Toronto, has officially announced its acquisition of Drayton International, a notable player in the gaming technology and content sector.

New Role for Davey as Non-Executive Chairman

In conjunction with the acquisition, prominent gaming entrepreneur Matt Davey, Founder and Chairman of Tekkorp Capital—a gaming-oriented investment firm—will join Bragg’s Board of Directors as the Non-Executive Chairman.

Based in Las Vegas, Davey is well-known for his experience in scaling B2B technology and content suppliers. In February, he secured a block of 1 million shares of Bragg common stock.

Combining his recent share purchases with his ownership in Drayton gives him a 10% stake in Bragg.

Focusing on a Games-First Strategy

Bragg has laid a solid foundation as a global B2B iGaming provider, and the acquisition of Drayton complements an impressive set of assets spanning games, technology, and distribution, thereby fueling its initiative to evolve into a data-rich, content-driven, user-centric organization,” commented Davey.

“Bragg integrates a powerful combination of advanced technology and a rich brand legacy poised for scaling into new markets alongside its roster of tier-one partners.”

This acquisition exemplifies Bragg’s commitment to a games-first growth strategy, focusing on proprietary gaming platforms that serve as revenue engines for operators, enabling compelling gaming experiences for users. Bragg is dedicated to expanding its reach throughout North America.

Share Acquisition Details

Bragg is obtaining 100% of Drayton’s equity interests for 4.5 million newly issued Bragg common shares, each valued at $2.00.

Drayton operates as a multi-faceted platform with stakes in five game development studios and three proprietary technology and distribution platforms.

This strategic deal significantly enhances Bragg Gaming Group’s presence in the iGaming industry, adding a collection of over 100 casino titles produced across five studios. Moreover, it brings along proprietary mechanics, such as hybrid slot engines linked to live horse-racing data, fostering both long-term royalty income and opportunities for game development revenue.

Expanding into Alternative Markets

With enhanced access to key international distribution networks, Bragg aims to deepen its market presence across various facets of the online gaming landscape, including content creation, platform integration, and customer acquisition.

This agreement also enables Bragg to penetrate the advance deposit wagering (ADW) ecosystem.

“Utilizing our agile remote games server technology, which can swiftly adapt to changing regulatory frameworks, along with the ADW model—turning parimutuel wagering into an engaging digital-first entertainment option—we will be able to fulfill player demand across many more U.S. states than before,” stated Matevž Mazij, CEO of Bragg Gaming Group.

“In essence, the U.S. market is evolving, and we believe that Bragg’s quick adaptability to regulatory changes is positioning us as leaders rather than followers in the alternative markets arena.”

Financial Highlights for Q1 2026

Bragg has also published its Q1 2026 financial metrics (ending March 31, 2026), showcasing revenues of $29.7 million (with overall year-over-year growth of 0.6%). Notably, revenue from Brazil surged by 33.3% compared to the previous year, attributed to provider onboarding, while the Netherlands reported a 3.5% increase due to a set Player Account Management agreement with Entain Plc.

While recurring revenues in the U.S. saw a 7.1% increase compared to the previous year—attributed to growth in proprietary content sales—total U.S. revenue declined by 12.1%, largely due to one-off revenue contributions from a content and technology agreement with Caesars Entertainment regarding its online casino platforms in Q1 2025.
