BETMGM has a solid position as a leading operator in the US market based on the technology and abilities of Entein's platforms and the brand power of the Joint venture partner, MGM Resorts International. The North American market is expected to be about $ 32 billion in the long term. During the 2021, Bet MGM gained strength and achieved 23%of the market share of sports betting and wigming in the market that develops business in three months until December 2021. This is in line with the lon g-term goal of 20%to 25%, which has secured a number 2 operator, but is in place to challenge the top position in these markets.

Bet MGM gained 29%of market share in the third quarter, continued to lead in the waging field, and in the field of sports betting, the bet MGM gained 18%share in the third quarter and its market. We have built more positions in.

The Bet MGM is operating in the 11 retail markets, 15 online sports betting markets, and 4 Igaming Market, reaching about 37%of the adult population. In addition, based on global experience in this category, horse racing products have been started in three more markets. Regulations have begun in Ontario, we plan to launch a bet MGM brand in this market and start services in Illinois in the first half of this year.

In 2021, we started the first national advertising campaign with Jamie Fox, gaining strong empathy as a differentiated approach to the emerging betting and gaming markets. Later, before the 2022 NFL Super Ball, we further renewed the campaign and advertising.

BETMGM has benefited from the best digital marketing tools, database analysis, and specialized products that provide specialized products. BETMGM also benefits from MGM Resorts' omn i-channel pr e-order and Fely Program, and about 14%of new registrants have established existing relationships through any of these channels. In the year of VEVERED, some innovative products were released, including Bingo and Entein's global leadership in horse racing, such as Borgata Bingo in New Jersey and three horse racing apps in three states without existing businesses.

As a result, Bet MGM quickly established a leader as a leader while maintaining financial discipline. The government's revenue increased by about 140 % every year, and the total revenue over the year reached $ 850 million. It was confirmed that the acquisition unit price was according to guidance, and it is expected to achieve a lon g-term acquisition unit price of $ 250. We have already achieved positive contributions in some markets, of which some of them are open. In 2022, it achieved more than $ 1. 3 billion, and in 2023 that EBITDA would be positive.

Entertainment platforms can provide outstanding experiences with ease of use, stability, excellent services and protection, fresh, unique and exciting content. We continue to evolve services and charms to create an exciting moment for a wider and more entertainment customer base. As a result, we will not only enhance the market presence and deepen, but also deliver profits with higher consistency and quality.

Interaction and acquisition with new viewers

Technology has changed consumers' behavior through new trends and ecosystems, creating exciting opportunities. We listen to customer voices, understand these changes, adapt and innovate to promote further growth to new viewers.

Customers are looking for more content, more engagement, more interactive, social experiences, more videos, more audio, and more free entertainment. Simply put, interactive entertainment and media are fusing with conventional betting and gaming markets.

Attain is at the center of this fusion, using our platform to meet the needs of customers and provide great opportunities to attract more customers to our network. This not only enhances the engagement and adhesive, but also begins to create a powerful flywheel effect that strengthens cros s-selling products and reduces acquisition costs.

Over the past year, we have grown in these markets and have established some basics to begin to benefit from the flywheel effect. As mentioned above, in markets such as the UK, Australia, and Germany, we created abundant content and media and attracted customers mainly in sports. These have already succeeded in expanding our activities. We have developed a new product that expands engagement with customers in both Free to Play and Real Money.

In August, UNIKRN was acquired and entered the E-Sports Betting Market, which is expected to be 12 billion Canada dollars in the medium term. After the acquisition, we are reconnecting the product group and working with partners and regulatory authorities to develop products to be released in the second half of this year.

The casual mobile game market has grown rapidly in recent years, and technology, data analysis, and other abilities are in line with this market.

We believe that this market is closely consistent with our customers' evolving demands, promoting the influence of the whirlwind of cost reduction, increasing adhesion, and diversifying the profit base.

For example, a partnership with McLaren offers a richer and attractive experience that F1 fans cannot be obtained elsewhere. The partnership with BT & amp; amp; verizon can help you provide you with innovative new experiences.

As technology continues to evolve, Entain's platform is uniquely positioned to enable exploration and innovation to deliver exciting and unique new products and experiences for our customers. To accelerate this, we have established the Ennovate Hub, a £100 million investment over three years. The Ennovate Hub will develop new products around AR/VR, 5G and edge computing, either directly or through funding incubators and accelerators. We will also work with multiple partners, including Verizon, BT and Theta Labs, to develop technologies and products that will drive new ecosystems within the metaverse. In addition, we support our commitment to environmental and social issues in Entain's Sustainability Charter and our global D& amp; amp; amp; group initiatives to increase technology and technology career opportunities.

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do, and we believe that the most sustainable businesses will be the most successful businesses in our industry. Our Book Charter is the backbone of this approach and is built around four key principles: best-in-class corporate governance and investing in our people and communities.

We have made great strides over the past year on all four principles, many of which were showcased at our inaugural Sustain event in November. Globally, we are leading the industry in accountability, with our player protection revolution at the core of our approach. For Arc TM, we continue to make great strides in both real-time customer interaction testing and international development.

We were also recognised as the most admired company at the EGR Compensation of the Year and SBC North American Awards Socially Responsible Business of the Year, as well as continued inclusion in the FTSE4GOOD Index and Jones Jones Sustainability Index at today's annual awards.

A great place to work and investing in our employees and communities

We want to be a great place to work, where our people can come to life, grow their careers and be empowered to do the right thing for our customers, colleagues and communities.

We actively promote an inclusive culture because we believe that the more diverse our colleagues are, the better our business will be and, importantly, the more we can represent our customers.

We are also evolving that flexibility further as a result of the Covid pandemic, recognising that the needs of our different teams and global offices are different. We want to continue to attract great talent and provide an environment where they can thrive. But the power of collaborative thinking and ideation, especially in a face-to-face environment, will remain a key element of how we do business, so we are evolving our workplace to allow us to evolve this flexible collaboration. We have completely renovated our offices in Stratford, London, to create the right collaborative environment for our employees. We will test and explore the learnings from this and use them to develop other offices.

We are committed to lightening our footprint on the planet and have already reduced our greenhouse gas emissions by 15% between 2018 and 2021. Last year, we pledged to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2035, 15 years ahead of the goals of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. This sees us formally joining the Science Based Targets initiative and demonstrating leadership in our field.

Our two foundations (Actain Foundation and Ondain US Foundation) continue to support problem gambling research, education initiatives aligned with our sustainable ambitions, and investments in communities and grassroots across our key markets. In November, we launched Pretrain, an initiative to provide access, education and technology to underrepresented groups across all sectors. Intrain has set an ambitious goal to increase diversity in tech and positively impact 1 million people by the end of the decade. This is based on partnerships with organizations like Girls Who Code, an international non-profit working to eliminate the gender gap in tech and redefine the image of developers. Entain Foundation will continue to leverage these partnerships throughout 2022.

Entain Foundation also continues to invest in grassroots sport through its Pitching in the Programme, working with the Trident League's Pitching in the Programme, which has 245 clubs and over 15, 000 community-based non-league football players. In addition to funding the league's operations, the Foundation is also a founding partner of the Trident Community Fund, enabling clubs to undertake projects that engage with local communities. In 2021, we also extended our long-term partnership with UK-based sports charity SportsAid, supporting 50 young athletes each year, providing coaching for personal development. We are also internationalizing our investment in grassroots sport, supporting projects in Italy, Greece and Colombia.

In Canada, we are deepening our exposure to sports brands with our recent acquisition of Avid Gaming, while Entain is now able to support the socio-economic efforts of the Mohawks of Kahnawa:KE through our deal with Mohawk Online.
