Investing to build our next growth platform and drive Catena Media’s transformation beyond organic search In Q2, we reported revenue of EUR 9.5m, broadly in line with the same quarter last year, and adjusted EBITDA of EUR 1.2m, a decrease of EUR 0.2m from the com - parable quarter. These results reflect industry-wide headwinds in organic search and mark a pause after several quarters of strong operating performance. The quarterly revenue decline underlines a structural re - ality facing our industry: traditional affiliation remains closely tied to the shifting dynamics of organic search. Reshaping the business beyond traditional SEO The financial volatility that arises from the unpredict - ability of a search-dependent business model led Catena Media’s board and management earlier this year to begin exploring how to reshape the business towards a model that reduces exposure to any single external factor. This process will see the company evolve beyond tra - ditional affiliation and lead generation into a technical infrastructure platform provider that brings together in - dustry players in a single ecosystem. We are currently developing this ecosystem as a next-generation and fully automated marketplace that connects publishers and advertisers across a wider set of verticals, with deep analytics and intelligence at its core. Investment into building the platform began in Q2 and is reflected in the increase in capital expenditure that we report for the period. We have reorganised our products and squads to drive the project forward and, for competitive reasons, are disclosing few operation - al details at the present time. However, I look forward to sharing more on the project’s progress in the com - ing quarters as we complete final testing in late 2026, ahead of a full commercial launch in the first half of next year. Building on MRKTPLAYS’ success The innovative capacity that enabled us to develop our successful MRKTPLAYS platform will be pivotal to delivering this shift. MRKTPLAYS has grown steadi - ly since its launch and today contributes more than a third of group revenue. Its impact validates a broader thesis: Catena Media’s highest-value growth role is not only generating affiliation leads but also building the connective infrastructure between publishers and operators. The cash reserve we have generated in recent quar - ters thanks to strong cash flow will allow us to fund the tech capabilities and growth-oriented investment necessary to develop the new infrastructure platform as we broaden the business beyond traditional SEO. Share buyback tied to employee incentive plan Following shareholder authorisation at the recent EGM, we also intend to launch a share buyback pro - gramme of up to 5.98 percent of outstanding shares. This is solely to meet obligations under our long-term incentive programme and should not be read as a broader capital return or capital allocation signal. Together, the steps we are taking are deliberate mea - sures to invest in new capabilities, meet our incentive commitments through disciplined capital allocation, and to reshape the business mix to reduce reliance on any single channel. We strongly believe this combination will provide a du - rable foundation for growth, shaped by the strength of our partnerships and our execution rather than unpre - dictable external factors. Continued commitment to our core organic brands To be clear, this is not a retreat from organic search and traditional search engine optimisation. We will continue to invest in and develop our core organic brands. They will remain important contributors to rev - enue alongside new products such as our PlayPerks loyalty programme on PlayUSA.com, whose strong performance since launch in January underscores the value of offsetting our exposure to Google traffic. While Q2 was softer than the standard we have set in recent quarters, I am confident we are making the right strategic choices to position the company for long- term growth, and I wish to thank the board of directors and our teams for their contributions and commitment to this vision.

Letter to the shareholders of Catena Media plc Dear shareholders, The board of directors has finalised an updated long- term capital allocation plan that reflects our focus on long-term growth and shareholder value. Capital allocation priorities Our primary capital allocation focus remains the rein - vestment of cash flow into growth-oriented initiatives that offer attractive investment returns. In addition, and in line with the authorisations granted at our recent an - nual and extraordinary general meetings, we will initi - ate a limited share buyback programme to support our long-term incentive plans. As part of the updated capital allocation plan, the board has also evaluated the company’s outstanding hybrid capital securities (CATME H01). Update on the hybrid capital security (CATME HO1) We recognise there is significant uncertainty and mis - understanding in the market regarding the nature of the hybrid capital security. To ensure absolute trans - parency, the board wishes to clarify the structural real - ity and implications of this instrument: • Equity , not debt: CATME H01 is classified as a special equity instrument, not a debt instrument. Consequently , hybrid holders do not possess the standard rights associated with traditional bonds, such as the ability to demand repayment or declare the issuer in default. • Preferred equity analogy: The instrument is best understood as a form of non-voting preferred equity . The “preferred” component gives holders a priority claim, ranking ahead of shareholders, up to the nominal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Should Catena Media opt to make any distributions to its shareholders, any deferred interest on the hybrid capital securities would then need to be settled as well. • Discretionary timing : Any resumption of interest payments on CATME H01, and the timing of any such resumption, is solely at the company’s discretion. Catena Media does not intend to initiate any interest payments for the foreseeable future. • Valuation and liquidity implications: Since CATME H01 has no maturity date and no fixed payment obligation, its intrinsic present-day value is not defined by its nominal value. Instead, it is determined by how the market prices a highly uncertain, potential future cash flow . As a result, market demand for acquiring this instrument has remained low , leading to a severe lack of liquidity for current holders. As mentioned, the company has no plans to resume interest payments on the hybrid capital security for the foreseeable future. Our focus is to prioritise the deployment of available capital into growth initiatives. We have received numerous enquiries from investors seeking a mechanism to divest their positions due to the lack of market liquidity in the hybrid capital security. To assist investors wishing to exit their positions, Cat - ena Media hereby announces its intention to launch a voluntary offer to buy back CATME H01 hybrid capital securities at a price of 20.00 percent of the nominal amount: that is, SEK 20 for every SEK 100 of nominal value. No capitalised interest or accrued unpaid interest on the hybrid capital se - curities will be paid in connection with the volun - tary offer. This offer provides an immediate liquidity window for holders who prefer to realise cash today rather than hold the instrument indefinitely. Further details regard - ing the offer’s application period and technical execu - tion will be made available on our investor relations web page. For more information regarding the voluntary offer to buy back CATME H01 hybrid capital securities, please refer to the press release issued by Catena Media on 11 August 2026, which is available on our investor re - lations web page. We remain fully focused on executing our strategic roadmap and maximising long-term value for Catena Media. Thank you for your continued support.

Significant events during Q2 2026 The annual general meeting on 27 May elected a board of directors comprising four members. Erik Flinck, Sean Hurley and Martin Zetterlund were re-elected as direc - tors, and Seth Young was elected as a new director . An extraordinary general meeting on 30 June authorised the company to acquire and hold own shares represent - ing up to 10 percent of total issued share capital, equiva- lent to 7 ,877 ,444 shares. Significant events after the period On 11 August 2026, the group announced its intention to launch a share buyback programme of up to 5.98 percent of outstanding shares under the authorisation granted at the extraordinary general meeting on 30 June. The pur - pose of the programme is to meet the company’s obliga- tions under its long-term incentive programmes. On 11 August 2026, the group announced its intention to launch a voluntary offer to buy back CATME H01 hybrid capital securities at a price of 20.00 percent of the nomi - nal amount, that is, SEK 20 for every SEK 100 of nominal value. No capitalised interest or accrued but unpaid inter- est will be paid in connection with the offer . Further details regarding the offer’s application period and technical ex- ecution will be made available on the company’s investor relations web page. Organic search performance Organic search is crucially important in the traditional af- filiation industry . We update the market quarterly on our average keyword ranking performance as we consider this information to be relevant for investors and stake - holders. The average score reflects the top rankings for 100 of the most important keywords across Catena Media’s brands. The actual keywords are not disclosed for competitive reasons, and will vary over time depending on strategy . Note that 1 is the best possible score. In Q2, our average keyword ranking was somewhat softer than in Q2 2025, with a recovery recorded after the end of the quarter , as shown in the graph below . It should be noted that changes in how users discover content mean that a given ranking position generates fewer clicks and hence less revenue than it did a year ago. For this reason, the group is evolving its business model to reduce depen- dence on organic search. See the CEO’s comments on page 2 for further details. 06-3003-3112-3109-3006-30 Total average score 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 The graph and the average scores have been adjusted to reflect this update and facilitate meaningful comparison over time. Cost base development Diligent cost management continued through the quar - ter . The total cost base was EUR 8.2m, in line with the 8.2m recorded in Q2 2025 and down from EUR 9.7m in Q1 2026. While the total was unchanged year on year , its composition shifted: direct costs rose to EUR 3.0m (2.4), driven by further diversification into profitable per - formance marketing channels including MRKTPLAYS. Personnel expenses decreased by 9 percent to EUR 3.6m (4.0). Adjusting for revenue-driven direct costs, the cost base was 11 percent lower than in Q2 2025.

OVERVIEW Catena Media’s revenue and adjusted EBITDA are impacted by a range of external fac - tors. These include regulations on sports betting and casino games and seasonal varia - tions in user engagement. Seasonality primarily affects the sports segment, which sees higher activity in conjunction with major league seasons and large events. All numbers refer to continuing operations. For a complete breakdown see page 19. Comparative costs have been reclassified to more accurately reflect segment-level contributions and internal cost allocations.

The purpose of this decision was to ease Catena Media’s debt burden, allowing the group to create headroom for tech-facing investments necessary to drive the busi - ness forward. The hybrid capital securities are perpetual instruments issued in 2020 and are treated as equity under IFRS. As of 30 June, the hybrid capital securities had a nominal value of EUR 43.7m and deferred interest of EUR 5.4m. In July 2025, the interest rate increased to 3-month STI - BOR plus 11% – in line with the instrument’s terms. See “Funding” in the “Other” section on page 10 for further information. On 10 July , the group again deferred interest payments on the instruments. Accumulated deferred interest on that date totalled EUR 7 .0m. As from 10 July 2026, the interest rate increased to 3-month STIBOR plus 12% - in line with the instrument’s terms. As communicated previously , the group expects to con- tinue deferring interest payments on the hybrid capital se- curities in order to maximise flexibility for effective capital allocation – including creating scope for investments that support strategic opportunities and revenue growth. This position will be kept under regular review .

SEGMENTS Casino Revenue in the Casino segment increased by 8 percent to EUR 8.5m (7 .8), corresponding to a 90 percent share of group revenue. Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 18 percent to EUR 1.1m (1.4), equal to a margin of 13 percent (17). New depositing customers (NDCs) grew by 35 percent. Compared to Q1 2026, revenue decreased by 22 percent, reflecting continued volatility in organic search rankings and an ongoing structural shift in user behaviour that has reduced traditional search traffic across the industry . Social sweepstakes casino revenue grew year on year de- spite the challenge of ongoing regulatory pressures in this sub-segment, with revenue from the MRKTPLAYS platform increasing strongly . Revenue was below the Q4 2025 peak, however , partly due to seasonal factors. Customer relationship management (CRM) recorded strong double-digit growth year on year . This was driven pri- marily by PlayUSA’s loyalty product PlayPerks, which since launch has generated a substantial increase in user traffic and interactivity with key operator customers.

SEGMENTS Sports The Sports segment reported a 43 percent decrease in revenue to EUR 1.0m (1.7), equal to a 10 percent share of group revenue. Adjusted EBITDA increased by 453 per - cent to EUR 0.1m (0.02), equal to a margin of 11 percent (1). New depositing customers (NDCs) decreased by 13 percent. Quarter-on-quarter revenue decreased by 32 percent due to ongoing operational challenges at core sports brands combined with the seasonally slow sports calen - dar . A calculated decision not to optimise products for the soccer World Cup meant this event delivered no mean - ingful uptick in performance. Adjusted for the esports business that was sold last year , the year-on-year revenue decline was 35 percent. This performance was in line with expectations as efforts to reverse product underperformance focused primarily on introducing new technical features in readiness for the forthcoming NFL season start. The new season will be the first with widespread user access to prediction mar - kets.

The SEO-based nature of the business routinely exposes the company to the risk of revenue volatility in conjunction with search-engine algorithm updates and other external factors. Risks are managed on a strate - gic, operational and financial level. Comprehensive risk disclosures and management approach are available in the 2025 annual report on pages 41-45 and 60-62. There were no significant changes to any of the risks disclosed in the annual report. See critical accounting estimates in Note 1 of this report for more information on the group’s cash-generating units and impairment assessments. SEASONALITY A significant portion of Catena Media’s sports betting business is subject to the seasonal openings and clo - sures of the major sports leagues in North America. These calendar-related shifts are associated with changeability in the group’s quarterly performance, with revenues typi- cally being higher in the first and fourth quarters. Fluctua- tions in quarterly results are also reflective of state market launches in North America.

Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements Note 1 Accounting principles This interim report was prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim financial reporting”. It was prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the fair valua - tion of financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss. The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the group’s condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those present - ed in the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2025. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES CGUs and impairment assessment The group operates through two primary segments, which also represent its two cash-generating units (CGUs) for the purposes of impairment testing in accordance with IAS 36 – Impairment of Assets. No impairment indicators arose during Q2 2026. Results for the first half of the year remained consistent with the assumptions applied in the 2025 annual impairment as - sessment, and management concluded no interim im - pairment test was required. Note 2 Segment reporting The group’s operations are reported on the basis of the two operating segments: Casino and Sports. The seg- ments were identified in accordance with the definition of an operating segment in IFRS 8, Operating Segments. No inter segmental revenues arose during the period. Further , total assets and liabilities for each reportable segment are not presented as they are not referred to for monitoring purposes. The following tables show figures for each period present- ed in this report. Since the majority of group revenue arises in North Amer- ica, management has concluded that a geographic mar - ket breakdown no longer provides meaningful additional insight and has therefore reduced its focus on such re - porting. A significant portion of Catena Media’s sports betting business is subject to the seasonal openings and clo - sures of the major sports leagues in North America. These calendar-related shifts are associated with changeability in the group’s quarterly performance, with revenues typi- cally being higher in the first and fourth quarters. Fluctua- tions in quarterly results are also reflective of state market launches in North America.
