Neal Menashe, Chief Executive Officer of Super Group, commented: “We had a Super first half of 2025, driven by a record-breaking second quarter. The quarter’s success was fueled by strong execution across our key markets, a full calendar of global sporting events, increased deposits, high customer retention, and margin expansion. While our decision to exit the U.S. was difficult, we believe that this step demonstrates our commitment to capital efficiency and long-term profitability. With continued focus on scaling our technology globally, Super Group should be even better positioned for sustained, profitable growth.”] Alinda van Wyk, Chief Financial Officer of Super Group, stated: “Q2 marked the strongest quarterly financial performance in Super Group’s history, with revenue up 30% year-over-year and Adjusted EBITDA up 78% year-over-year to $157 million, delivering a healthy 27% margin. These results underscore our scalable, cost-efficient operating model and controlled marketing spend. We ended the quarter with $393 million in unrestricted cash and zero debt, and returned $20 million to shareholders, bringing our 12-month capital returns to $166 million. Driven by our continued focus on core markets, we are raising our full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance and remain confident in delivering long-term value to our shareholders.” Financial Highlights: • Revenue increased by 30% to $579.4 million for the second quarter of 2025 from $446.5 million in the same period of the prior year, driven by growth from the Africa, Europe and North America markets partially offset by declines from the LATAM, Middle East and Asia-Pacific markets. • Profit before tax was $38.8 million for the second quarter of 2025 and includes a non-cash charge of $63.9 million related to the impairment of Digital Gaming Corporation Limited ("DGC")' iGaming related assets and $22.6 million relating to onerous contracts. By comparison, profit before tax for the second quarter of 2024 was $22.1 million and included a non-cash charge of $39.6 million related to the impairment of DGC's sportsbook assets. • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased by 78% to $156.7 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $88.2 million in the second quarter of 2024. • Monthly Active Customers increased by 21% to 5.5 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared to 4.5 million in the second quarter of 2024. • Balance Sheet: Total Assets: $1.1 billion; Total Liabilities: $454.4 million; Total Equity: $662.3 million. • Cash and cash equivalents was $393.0 million as of June 30, 2025 compared to $388.0 million at December 31, 2024. • Dividends of $20.2 million was paid during the quarter, bringing the 12-month capital returns to $166 million. 1

Non-GAAP Financial Information This press release includes non-GAAP financial information not presented in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA ex-US, Adjusted EBITDA US are non-GAAP company-specific performance measures that Super Group ("the Group") uses to supplement the Company’s results presented in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA is defined as profit before depreciation, amortization, finance income, finance expense and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for RSU expense, change in fair value of options, unrealized foreign exchange, gain on disposal of business and other adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA ex-US is Adjusted EBITDA relating to the rest of the Group, excluding Digital Gaming Corporation (“DGC”). Adjusted EBITDA US is Adjusted EBITDA relating to DGC. Super Group believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s operating performance as they provide additional perspective on the financial performance of our core business, are similar to measures reported by the Company’s public competitors and are regularly used by securities analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. Management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by IFRS to be recorded in Super Group’s financial statements. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures together with IFRS results. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results and guidance prepared in accordance with IFRS, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, IFRS results. Reconciliation tables of the most comparable IFRS financial measure to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release, and supplemental materials are included below. Super Group urges investors to review the reconciliation and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly named non- GAAP measures differently than we do, which limits their usefulness in comparing our financial results with theirs. 1 1 2 3 1 1 2 3 1 2 3 4
