Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are subject to liquidity risk, credit risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that we will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with our financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Our approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that, as far as possible, we will have sufficient liquidity to meet our liabilities when they become due. Refer to Note 25.4 – Liquidity Risk to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to us if a client or counterparty to financial instruments fails to meet its contractual obligations. We are exposed to credit risk from our operating activities (primarily trade receivables), unpaid capital contributions, loans granted and deposits with banks and financial institutions.
The carrying amounts of financial assets and contract assets represent the maximum credit exposure. For categories of financial instruments, please see Note 25.1 – Measurement categories of financial instruments to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. At the reporting date, there are no arrangements which will reduce our maximum credit risk.
Impairment losses on financial assets and contract assets recognized in the consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are disclosed in Note 16 – Trade receivables and contract assets to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
As our risk exposure is mainly influenced by the individual characteristics of each client, we continuously analyze the creditworthiness of significant debtors. Due to our international operations and expanding business based on a diversified client structure, we experience an increasing but still low concentration of credit risk arising from trade receivables. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 no individual client accounted for more than 10% of revenues. Impairment losses are recognized when the counterparty is not meeting its payment obligations and when further financial information cannot be obtained. See Note 25.5 – Credit Risk to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Foreign Currency Risk
Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognized financial assets and liabilities. The Company invoices more than 70% of its business in its functional currency, the Euro. However, license rights are often purchased in foreign currencies, and this exposes us to a significant risk from changes in foreign exchange rates; in particular, against the U.S. Dollar as a result of the Company’s NBA sports data and media rights license. Furthermore, some of our subsidiaries operate in local currencies, mainly AUD, GBP, CHF, NOK and USD. Exchange rates are monitored by our central finance department on a monthly basis, to ensure that adequate measures are taken if fluctuations increase.
The main transaction risks are represented by the U.S. Dollar and the Great Britain Pound, while other currencies pose minor sources of risk. The transaction risk on foreign currency cash flows is monitored on an ongoing basis by our Treasury in order to mitigate any currency risk exposure. The Company’s net exposure in U.S. Dollars and in Great Britain Pound is disclosed in Note 25.6 – Foreign Currency Risk to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. We are mainly exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in connection with borrowings. The interest rate is based on market interest rate plus a margin which is based on a leverage ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement. For the unutilized RCF, a commitment fee of 0.825% is payable on 30% of the applicable margin for the RCF. The applicable margin for the RCF is 2.75% per annum and is determined based on the senior secured net leverage ratio of the Company. We do not actively manage our interest rate exposure. See Note 25.7 – Interest rate risk to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Loans granted to clients and employees bear fixed interest. They do not expose us to any interest rate risk. See to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
