INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 5 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS-INTRALOT GROUP TO THE ANNUAL GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE SHAREHOLDERS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 1/1/2024- 31/12/2024 Dear Shareholders, The operational activities of the Group over the past year were focused on strengthening and enhancing relationships with existing customers by extending contracts, expanding cooperation in new areas and upgrading services provided to new technologies, while simultaneously pursuing new opportunities by participating in multiple tenders around the world. This strategy led to top-line improvement by 3,4% and kept operational profitability and leverage ratios within the targeted range. After a period where emphasis was on deleveraging and improving capital structure, during 2024 management actions were streamed towards strengthening operational capabilities and product offering to our customers. In terms of new operations, INTRALOT signed agreement with Magnum Corporation Sdn Bhd, a leading gaming company in Malaysia. This agreement follows the successful outcome of an international call for tenders issued by Magnum Corporation in 2022. The term of the new agreement is for seven (7) years, with an option for two extensions of five (5) years each. On November new project has been agreed between the British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC) and INTRALOT Inc., Group’s US subsidiary, for the provision of an online lottery platform. The project also includes the digitalization of the existing land-based network. The solution will be based on the Player X platform, part of the Lotos X ecosystem, and adds to the company's overall partnership with BCLC, which has been extended until 2028. As for upgrading services with new technology, major milestone for INTRALOT in North America was successful migration of the British Columbia Lottery Corporation’s (BCLC) retail lottery system to its innovative LotosX Omni ecosystem fully deployed on a Cloud technology stack. This makes BCLC one of the first lotteries in the world to adopt a fully cloud-based lottery system. Regarding contract extensions, there were several major events during the year: INTRALOT Maroc, a subsidiary of the INTRALOT Group, and La Marocaine Des Jeux et des Sports (MDJS), a state lottery offering sports betting and other games of chance in Morocco, agreed extension for up to two additional years. INTRALOT Ireland Ltd. has signed a three-year (3) contract extension, through November 2027, with Premier Lotteries Ireland DAC (PLI). This extension allows INTRALOT to continue providing its advanced central gaming system for the operation of the National Lottery of Ireland through a retail network of more than 4.300 INTRALOT terminals, as well as serving mobile and web players. Three-year contract extension of its subsidiary in The Netherlands, INTRALOT BENELUX B.V., with Nederlandse Loterij Organisatie B.V. (NLO) to continue providing operations and management services for TOTO retail sportsbook has been activated. TOTO is the sports betting brand of NLO and is operated through a retail network of 4.000 POS. The contract extension is through June 2027. INTRALOT Australia has signed an extension of its contract with Lotterywest, the state lottery in Western Australia, for an additional two (2) years and with an option to extend for one (1) more year. This extension allows INTRALOT Australia to continue providing its lottery operating system and services for the operation of Lotterywest beyond 2026.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 6 In terms of the Group’s financial position, the primary objective was to deliver healthy financial profitability margins and continue reducing funded debt, enabling the creation of value for all shareholders, in line with the commitments of the INTRALOT management. In more details, in February 2024, the Management completed the issuance of a Retail Bond Loan on the Athens Stock Exchange in the amount of €130 million, with duration of five (5) years and annual interest rate at 6,0%. Public offering resulted in total valid demand rising to €201,87 million, translating in oversubscription by 1,55 times, while the total number of participant investors was 5.467. Proceeds of the loan have been used for partial redemption of €130.000.000 in principal amount, plus accrued interest, of the outstanding 5,250% Notes due September 2024, with the previous outstanding balance of EUR 229.568.000. At the end of March 2024, INTRALOT has finalized the signing and disbursement of a loan with a consortium of 5 Greek banks in the amount of €100 million, using the proceeds for the full repayment of the 5,250% Notes due September 2024. In addition to that, Intralot Inc, the US subsidiary of the Group, proceeded with one year extension of existing bank loan. The maturity date of this credit agreement is now July 27, 2026, at the same terms. We are committed to continuing to focus on these pillars, ensuring that at the core of our mission is to better serve the evolving needs of players and lottery organizations through the provision of state-of-the-art products and services, and that our core values of business ethics, transparency, integrity, and responsible gaming continue to guide our efforts to achieve sustainable and responsible growth. Looking ahead, we would like to thank all our stakeholders for their confidence in the Group and assure them of our unwavering commitment to executing our growth strategy and focusing on further improving the Group's operational efficiency. Continued efforts over the past years resulted in strong capital structure, putting the Group in position to strengthen existing relationships and pursue growth initiatives worldwide. In addition, the Company continues to monitor developments in the financial markets and will take further steps to both extend the maturity of its Debt obligations and further optimize its financial structure. Regarding the financial results of INTRALOT Group for 2024, revenue presented an increase of 3,4%, with Group turnover amounting to €376,4 million, compared to €364,0 million in 2023. Operating performance as measured via our earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), amounted to €124,7 million, exhibiting a decrease of 3,7% compared to the prior year. Excluding the impact from the settlement agreement with the District of Washington DC and all related costs, Adjusted EBITDA 1 amounted to 130,7 million, marginally increased vs. last year (€129,5 million in FY23). The main drivers behind our top line performance can be attributed to the organic growth our key regions experienced (mainly in USA, Oceania and Croatia), along with the improved results in Turkey, especially in 4Q24, with sales posting a significant increase of 92,9% compared to 4Q23. Strong growth has been also achieved by our operations in Argentina led by the positive swing from 9M24 to 4Q24, as we managed to fully recover from 50% Peso devaluation carried out by the country's new government in December 2023. From an AEBITDA performance perspective, Group’s operating profitability remained at the same levels with FY23, through the organic growth of our operations and the effective management of costs. On top of the above, our earnings before taxes (EBT) decreased to €18,0 million from €33,6 million in 2023 mainly impacted by the effect of the settlement agreement with the District of Washington DC, the increased interest and related expenses, the higher D&A and the reorganization costs incurred within 2024. As regards the parent company 1 Adjusted EBITDA (AEBITDA) is defined as EBITDA excluding the impact from the settlement agreement with the District of Washington DC and all related costs.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 7 results, turnover decreased by 34,4% to €44,6 million in 2024, while earnings after tax amounted to €-11,2 million, from €18,4 million in 2023. In 2024, Group Operating Cash-flow posted a decrease and stood at €87,2 million, versus €112,5 million in 2023. The decrease is a result of the unfavorable working capital movement, mainly due to the timing of customer receivables. Net Debt, as of December 31 st , 2024, stood at €379,9 million. Adjusting the impact of €24,2 million from Restricted Cash, Adjusted Net Debt shaped at €355,7 million, keeping adjusted net leverage ratio 2 at 2,7x. During the year, the Company generated free cash flow 3 of €34,6 million and paid net interest of €32,2 million. The successful refinancing actions of notes due September 2024 at the beginning of the year required €24,2 million guarantee deposit, while reorganization and bond issuance costs of €8,6 million were also paid. Despite the capital repayments towards the Term Loan in the US and the Syndicated Bond Loan during 2024, the negative FX impact of currency movement on our US denominated debt amounting to €11,8 million fully offset the benefit from debt repayments resulting in Gross Debt decrease by 1,0 million. 2 Adjusted net leverage ratio is defined as Adjusted Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (AEBITDA). 3 Free Cash Flow defined as “Net Cash from Operating activities” adjusted for “Net Dividends”, “Capex”, “Repayment of leasing obligations”, “Exchange differences” and “Return of Capital to minority shareholders of subsidiary”.

Our Strategies Deliver best-in-class technology solutions and maintain leadership in technology innovation The most important element of our sustainable growth strategy is to maintain our industry leadership in technology and innovation. This core strategy of INTRALOT emanates from the fact that lottery and gaming is a technology and supply driven industry and thus technology innovation drives growth. In this sense, we strive to develop leading technology solutions for lottery, sports betting, iLottery and gaming machine monitoring, through investing in R&D activities that foster innovation and focus on early adoption of industry shaping trends. Some examples of our R&D program results is the next-generation of our gaming platforms and products, specifically the LotosX platform ecosystem, the INTRALOT Orion, our new omni-channel sports betting platform, the PhotonX lottery terminal, and most recently our natively omni-channel iLottery solution which offer a wide range of engaging interactive lottery games and feature personalized player experiences through powerful data analytics. Our current R&D focus is on expanding our iLottery offering so to deliver engaging gaming content across player touchpoints, on introducing AI tools across our platfrom ecosystem so to provide more personalized player experiences and broad automation across components, and on Big Data so to provide more granular and actionable insights, while also developing the new generation of our retailer terminals.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 27 generation solutions are already receiving significant market traction, with contract extensions and new contracts in Europe, North America and beyond. For more details, refer to Intralot website, section “INTRALOT Solutions, Products and Services \ Research & Development” (https://www.intralot.com/products-services). Expand our footprint in strategic markets & maintain portfolio diversification The second element of our strategy is to maintain and expand our contract base with our main focus being the US and North American markets, the current epicenter of industry developments with sports betting, machine gaming and iLottery regulation evolving across States, while our business development efforts underpin our strategic shift from emerging markets to mature markets, like North America and Europe. We have developed appropriate plans to increase our iLottery, retail sports betting and gaming machine monitoring footprint in the US and North America, working for State Lottery customers, and in this sense our priority is to promote lottery-run sports betting and video lotteries across States. Our current US Lottery footprint provides us a path to 11 States and the District of Columbia, with a vast addressable population, and it is our strategic intent to leverage this unique opportunity to create sustainable value. We believe that our live State lottery projects, which were further increased in 2024 with the sports betting launch for British Columbia Lottery Corporation, where we successfully overhauled and digitized its PROLINE retail sportsbook, provide us with the perfect platform to deliver on this strategic objective. In addition, in 2024 we managed to expand the scope of our contract with BCLC with the new project for the provision of an online lottery platform. Moreover, in order to maintain the diversification of our contract base in the rest of the world, we remain vigilant for other opportunities worldwide which we will pursue through partnerships with trusted local partners, in order to benefit from their leverage and understanding of the local market dynamics. This approach also provides for sharing financial and operational risks, reducing capital expenditure, and improving access to local funding and for these reasons we are deliberate and strategic in the selection of our partners in all such ventures. A recent such example is the new long-term lottery contract in Malaysia with our existing customer Magnum Corporation Sdn Bhd, the leading lottery gaming company in the country, for the deployement of our LotosX Omni ecosystem. Currently our business is well-diversified across the three core business activities of technology and support services, management contracts and licensed operations. We currently have operations in 40 jurisdictions with 50 active contracts.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 28 EBITDA by Geography in the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 (1) (1) Chart figures are presented rounded and countries with negative EBITDA have been excluded from the presentation. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, our total positive EBITDA (excluding countries with negative EBITDA) reached €140,4 million. Additionally, in the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, Greek entities represented only 4,9% (2,1% from clients based in Greece) of our revenue. Furthermore, we benefit from the growing share of contracts in developed markets in our portfolio, where we benefit from stable recurring revenue through long-term contracts. We believe that our concentration on mature and resilient markets allows us to mitigate risks that are specific to certain markets and regions. Moreover, we benefit from strong contract diversity including: 48 technology and support services contracts, which comprised 71,7% of our revenue net of payout during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024; two (2) management contracts, which comprised 23,7% of our revenue net of payout during the same period; and one (1) license, which comprised 4,5% of our revenue net of payout during the same period. As of December 31, 2024, INTRALOT had 51 active contracts contributing to EBITDA, which currently amounts to 50.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 29 Value creation driven by increased cash flow generation, margin expansion and improving longer- term revenue visibility A key component of our sustainable growth strategy is to improve our cash flow trajectory through the strategic and proactive management of our long-term contracts. We selectively seek to maintain and enter into long-term contracts that match our stringent profitability and cash generation targets. These contracts are often for higher margin business activities, such as providing expanded facilities management or managed services. We continuously evaluate the profitability of our existing contracts and have selectively disengaged less profitable contracts. We also aim to enhance revenue visibility and expected cash flow by entering long term contracts providing recurring revenue stream stability. As proof of our ability to deliver on this strategic objective, our new contract with Magnum can run up to 17 years with the extensions, while early in 2025 we entered in a new contract with the Charitable Gaming Division of the Nebraska Department of Revenue for the provision of a real-time monitoring and reporting system for Cash Devices across the state, for a term that can reach 13 years with the extensions. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we estimate that approximately 44,0% (excluding extension options) of the adjusted revenue for the period was generated through multi-year contracts or renewable licenses that are available to us until 2028 (although actual revenue that may be generated in the future from those contracts may increase or decrease). If we take into consideration the extension options of our contracts, revenue visibility increases to approximately 50,8% until 2029. Adjusted revenue for the revenue visibility estimation, refer to FY24 revenue adjusted for the contribution of contract discontinuations and one-off revenue recognitions within 2024. Disciplined capital allocation aimed to optimize our capital structure By prolonging our existing contract base in strategic markets and by pursuing opportunities and entering new markets through local partnerships, we aim to reduce our capital expenditure, increase our operational margins, and obtain access to local financing with more favorable terms. Following this principle, in 2024 we have managed to prolong our lottery contracts with Marocaine Des Jeux et des Sports (MDJS), a state lottery offering sports betting and lottery games of in Morocco, with Nederlandse Loterij Organisatie B.V. (NLO) in the Netherlands to continue providing operations and management services for its TOTO retail sportsbook, as well as our lottery contracts with Premier Lotteries Ireland DAC (PLI), the Irish National Lottery licensee, and with Lotterywest, the state lottery in Western Australia. In addition, following the increased CAPEX requirements of previous years for new contracts implementation, we seek to maintain a modest financial and growth investment policy focused on strong liquidity. In addition, we intend to have a disciplined capital expenditure policy with regards to undertaking projects that meet our investment return criteria. Unwavering Commitment to Responsible Gaming, Social responsibility & Integrity For us, responsible gaming, social responsibility, and integrity is not merely a strategy. These principles are weaved into the company fabric, and we promote them throughout our global operations in any type of engagement. This unwavering commitment, which has been adopted since the company foundation, is essential for building trust with State Lotteries and competent Authorities and in turn for renewing our existing contracts
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 30 and winning new ones with lottery and gaming organizations in the State-sponsored gaming sphere. Our State Lottery customers and their Regulators require us to conduct our business with all due integrity and to provide our games securely and responsibly, and we deliver on these expectations by keeping responsible gaming and player protection front and center of our thinking. As proof of commitment to leverage industry-best RG technology to improve player protection for our lottery customers, in 2024 we have launched an initiative to integrate with a 3rd party award-winning safer gambling software utilizing AI which provides the tools for a fully-automated, early detection of at-risk and problem gambling behavior. Financial Review Financial Highlights In 2024 revenue upside was achieved through the organic growth in USA, Oceania and Croatia, combined also with the improved results, especially within 4Q24, in both Turkey and Argentina. In Turkey, sales recorded an increase of 92,9% vs. 4Q23, while in Argentina we managed to fully recover from 50% Peso devaluation carried out by the country's new government in December 2023. On an organic level, the Group’s performance showed a decrease of 3,7%, shaping EBITDA at 124,7 million. Excluding the impact from the settlement agreement with the District of Washington DC and all related costs, AEBITDA remained at the same levels with FY23, as a result of the effective management of costs and the favorable top line performance, posting a slight increase year over year and reaching €130,7 million, from €129,5 million in 2023.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 31 Revenue, GGR, EBITDA, EBT and NIATMI Reported consolidated revenue posted an increase compared to FY23, leading to total revenue for the twelve- month period ended December 31, 2024, of €376,4 million (+3,4%). Lottery Games was the largest contributor to our top line, comprising 54,8% of our revenue, followed by Sports Betting, contributing 23,1%, to Group turnover. VLTs monitoring accounted for 11,3% and Technology contracts represented 10,7% of Group turnover. Reported consolidated revenue for the twelve-month period is higher by €12,3 million year over year. The main factors that drove top line performance per Business Activity are: Increased revenue by €12,0 million (or +16,6%) from our Management (B2B/ B2G) contracts fueled by strong growth in Turkey, despite the devaluation of Turkish lira (-11,1%), in part mitigated by lower revenue in Morocco as a result of the contract renewal with smaller contract value. Higher revenue by €8,5 million (or +30,1%) from our Licensed Operations (B2C) in Argentina following a 50% devaluation of the currency carried out by the country's new government in December 2023, heavily affecting last year’s results. Current year results posted a 55,2% y-o-y increase in local currency terms. Decreased revenue by €8,2 million (or -3,1%) from our Technology and Support Services (B2B/ B2G) contracts mainly attributed to the implementation fees in Taiwan charged during 2023 and partially compensated by organic growth across most of the key regions. Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) concluded at €355,5 million in FY24, posting a marginal increase of 2,0% (or €+7,0 million) year on year.

EBITDA 8 amounted to €124,7 million in FY24, posting a decrease of 3,7% (or €-4,8 million) compared to FY23. Adjusting the impact from the settlement agreement with the District of Washington DC and all related costs, AEBITDA amounted to €130,7 million, slightly higher vs. last year (€129,5 million in 2023), mainly driven by the organic growth across most key regions. On a yearly basis, AEBITDA margin on sales posted a marginal decrease of 0,8pps, from 35,6% in FY23 to 34,7% in the current period. Earnings before Tax in FY24 amounted to €18,0 million vs. 33,6 million in FY23, with the major drivers of the decrease being the settlement agreement with the District of Washington DC, the increased interest and related expenses, the higher D&A and the reorganization costs incurred within 2024.

Adjusting the impact of €24,2 million from Restricted Cash, Adjusted Net Debt shaped at €355,7 million, keeping adjusted net leverage ratio at 2,7x. During the year, the Company generated free cash flow of €34,6 million and paid net interest of €32,2 million. The successful refinancing actions of notes due September 2024 at the beginning of the year required €24,2 million guarantee deposit, while reorganization and bond issuance costs of €8,6 million were also paid. Despite the capital repayments towards the Term Loan in the US and the Syndicated Bond Loan during 2024, the negative FX impact of currency movement on our US denominated debt amounting to €11,8 million fully offset the benefit from debt repayments resulting in Gross Debt decrease by 1,0 million. Cash and cash equivalents at the end of FY24 shaped at €64,3 million, compared to 111,9 million in FY23. Including restricted cash in accordance with the loan obligations, Cash and cash equivalents at the end of FY24 ended at €88,5 million.

We are one of the only three vendors who hold contracts with the state lotteries for the supply of online gaming systems, retailer communication networks, and point of sale equipment, such as terminals and vending machines. We became the first non-U.S. company to win a tender for the supply of lottery systems, when we won a contract to supply the Nebraska state lottery in 2003. Intralot Tech, a 100% subsidiary of Intralot Inc., was established in 2019 as USA’s development hub in Greece and complements its existing central functions in Atlanta and Mason.

In 2024, our sales in the United States reached €166,3 million, posting an increase of 1,3%, over the prior year, when our revenue amounted to €164,2 million. The slight sales improvement is mainly attributed to the merchandise sale within the current year, offsetting the lower revenue from jackpots.

Originally incorporated in Athens in 1992, we won our first domestic contract in 1993. We currently operate three contracts in Greece. As the center of our Global operations, Greece is also home to our betting-trading center that controls our global fixed odds betting activity, and significant research and development programs (Technology Hub), as well as our corporate Headquarters which supports the wider INTRALOT ecosystem, employing approx. 400 employees at the end of December 31 st , 2024. As such, Headquarters expenses serve the different projects of INTRALOT S.A, including among others the Greek projects, but most of the effort is distributed towards servicing and supporting the pipeline of won and upcoming contracts, as well as supporting INTRALOT’s subsidiaries and R&D efforts. Our relationship with Greek Organization of Football Prognostics S.A. (OPAP) began in 1999. On July 31 st , 2018, the old OPAP contract ended, and the two parties continue their cooperation under a new contract, specifically in the field of numerical lotteries games, resulting in a smaller contract value due to the limited scope. The new contract was initially a 3-year contract that included an option for OPAP to renew for an additional two years. Since then, there have been multiple extensions of the new contract with the most recent extension until July 31, 2026, with two further one-year extension options, under the same terms, to 31.07.2027 and 31.07.2028 respectively. These extensions allow INTRALOT to continue providing its state-of-the-art Lottery Solution, including flagship LotosX lottery engine software and the development of the related functionalities. Revenue from Greek operations in 2024 was €18,5 million, compared to €27,4 million in the respective period of the prior year, accounting for 4,9% of the Group’s total revenue in the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. Revenue decrease led by sales over-performance in last year’s results due to the positive impact from the implementation fees in Taiwan.

The lottery operator business generated sales of €36,9 million in 2024, compared to €28,4 million in 2023, posting an increase of 30,1%. Both operations’ financial performance was improved as a result of the recovery following a 50% devaluation of the currency carried out by the country's new government in December 2023, heavily affecting last year’s results.

Bilyoner’s revenue increased to €76,2 million in 2024, from €50,8 million over the same period last year, favored by the continued growth of the online market, as well as the market share uptake in Turkey. In FY24, the local Sports Betting market expanded 1,7 times y-o-y, with the online segment representing close to 86,0% of the market at the end of 2024.

More specifically, lottery, sports betting and VLT monitoring industries operated by INTRALOT have significant growth potential, mainly enabled by the value that has been unlocked by new technologies and the wide adoption of online services, ensuring centralized control and promoting responsible gaming, as well as the transparency, security and integrity of gaming experience. Digital technology evolution, in combination with regulatory initiatives towards market liberalization and the regulation of previously restricted forms of gaming, as well as the changes in player demographics and their spending habits and the digital adoption as influenced by new technologies, all set the pace of accelerated change. INTRALOT has all the resources and foundations for a successful course and expects to reap the benefits of its strategy to invest in digital transformation technologies. Leveraging our leading position in the provision of technology and services for lottery games, held for two decades, INTRALOT is intensifying its strategic focus to capitalize on the new value created in recent years by strengthening its online portfolio and increasing demand in the iLottery sector from state Lotteries in the US and the rest of the world. Technology will be the key enabler towards business innovation. Our technology is not only highly innovative, but it is also easily scalable, interoperable, and extensible. Seamless omni-channel player experiences, cost optimization, fast time-to-market, market reactiveness and all other drivers of increased sales and profitability can be improved by using our technology as an enabler. In this context, INTRALOT’s organizational structure evolves with the aim of enhancing its delivery capabilities and creating a customer-centric service delivery organization, backed by a strong finance division and an extrovert commercial arm. Through 2025 we look forward to further engagements to implement projects with our new Lotos X platform, monitoring systems and industry-leading terminal solutions, as well as the digital transformation of lotteries and their portfolio of products and services through the online channel. In the US lottery market, which has become a key part of our future growth strategy, we intend to leverage our position and the strengths of our strategic subsidiary, INTRALOT Inc. Significant growth prospects are presented
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 41 in the US VLT monitoring market, which INTRALOT will carefully evaluate in the future by leveraging its experience in successfully managing such potential projects. Finally, the Group's Management will selectively evaluate projects that may offer growth opportunities in other markets outside the US in its areas of activity, as it has already demonstrated its ability to respond successfully to the implementation of such projects by leveraging the network of partnerships it owns or is developing around the world. A primary enabler of sustainable growth is the further improvement of our capital structure in a way that will be consistent with our strategy to create long-term value for all stakeholders of the company. We remain focused on our mission to best address the needs of our customers with state-of-the-art products and services, and to generate new free cash flows that will further strengthen INTRALOT's position and will lay the foundation for its active and dynamic presence in the future based on the new industry trends. HUMAN RESOURCES Our Best Asset The Human Resources of a Company is acknowledged as its most important asset, providing it with competitive advantage, thus, the policies pursued and the initiatives undertaken by INTRALOT and its subsidiaries abroad, aim at effectively attracting, enhancing, motivating and retaining talent. The continuous efforts and contribution of all INTRALOT employees, as well as their unceasing trust and support of its shareholders, remain a key factor in the advancement of the Company’s competitiveness and further growth. The Company undertakes to provide its employees with a working environment that will constantly develop their capabilities and enhance their performance through reward and recognition schemes, always in accordance with the principles that govern the Group. At Headquarters, the total turnover rate was at the range of 5,8 %, while the people who joined reached 10,9% of the total personnel base. For the selection of human resources, high recruitment standards and processes have been followed. In terms of enriching our practices for the better operation of the company, the following policies have been updated: a) the “Corporate Cars - Fuels Policy”, which defines when an employee is entitled to a company car, either as a benefit or as a work tool, as well as, the rights and responsibilities of company car owners, b) the “Corporate Mobile Phones Policy”, which defines when an employee is entitled to a company mobile phone, either as a benefit or as a work tool, as well as the rights and responsibilities of company mobile phone owners. Both policies aim to achieve the efficient management of company cars and mobile phones respectively, in order to reduce the expenses of the INTRALOT group. Performance Appraisal Management The Performance Appraisal Management system has been operating in the parent company and in most subsidiaries for the past 6 years. An integrated and detailed goal setting process is set at the beginning of the year, followed by a review of these goals and a meeting between the employee and the supervisor in the middle of the year (to make any necessary adjustments on plans and/or minor changes of goals) and it is concluded at the beginning of the following year with the performance appraisal of the year passed.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 42 An element of innovation for 2024 is that in addition to the goals, all employees are also evaluated for their competencies. For example, some competencies that are evaluated are teamwork, integrity, responsibility / reliability and adaptability. INTRALOT is moving from a traditional performance appraisal scheme to a more modern, dynamic and flexible model, thus improving productivity and offering opportunity for regular meet ups and alignment between the employee and his/her supervisor, along with the possibility of monitoring the employee's contribution towards the achievement of his annual goals. The result is that individual actions, achievements, as well as the relevant feedback that each employee receives from colleagues now become part of the new performance management approach. Training and Development In 2024, in the context of development and career advancement, 14 or our people were promoted, while two of whom assumed managerial positions. In terms of Training, great emphasis was placed on specialized training for our people, aiming to improve their skills in modern fields of technology and innovation. Special training was implemented for the induction of the newcomers, the leadership skills development (e.g. leadership simulation, effective feedback) and the development of technical skills through platforms (e.g. ITIL, Business Analysis, AWS). In addition, innovative platforms such as Kode Kloud, Pluralsight και Udemy were deployed for specialized IT training programs. The use of these platforms contributes to participants upskilling via cutting edge tools and learning approaches. Moreover, throughout the year, the following programs were updated and implemented via our corporate e- learning platform: the security and compliance training program, the responsible game, the anti-bribery policy and the GDPR compliance code of conduct. Specifically, at Headquarters level, 426 training programs were carried out (53 instructor-led training sessions and 373 e-learning self-paced) with 1.670 participations, reaching a total of 6.580 training hours. Activities The company, in the context of strengthening its Employer Branding, participated in the most important events for attracting new talented people in the field of technology, such as: Devoxxed Days Athens, Developers Days (Digital), Oπe\n conference 2024, Diversity and Inclusion Summit, PLG Disrupt, Panorama of Entrepreneurship & Career Development and WeTest Athens. In the area of healthcare benefits, we continued offering proactive healthcare check-up, while two blood donation initiatives took place in order to serve the needs of INTRALOT’s blood bank. For our people with children, we supported Project Parenting's 1st educational conference for parents “Are screens bad for children?” In the context of volunteering, we have continued to contribute to the protection of the environment through recycling (aluminum, plastic, paper, batteries, lamps, electrical and electronic devices), while we continue to offer our support to the works of HELMEPA (Hellenic Marine Environment Protection Association). Furthermore, we
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 43 organized at our Headquarters premises the "Christmas Bazaar" and the "Easter Bazaar" and with the contribution of our employees, we have supported the work of the NGO “Médecins du Monde”.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 44 RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Enterprise Risk Management The Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Framework documents the good practices adopted by the INTRALOT Group in order to identify, assess and manage risks related to the achievement of its business objectives. INTRALOT ERM targets the assurance of stakeholder and shareholder trust through the appropriate and continuous balancing of risk and value. INTRALOT ERM follows a holistic approach for taking into account all parameters that drive the execution of INTRALOT Group Strategy, including INTRALOT’s financial health, operations, people, technology, compliance, products and reputation. ERM provides the means to continuously monitor risk, align it with the changing internal and external parameters and manage it according to the defined corporate risk appetite. The Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Framework is designed according to the specifications of COSO (Committee of Sponsorship Organizations of the Treadway Commission) and ISACA (COBIT for RISK). It is a holistic strategic framework taking into account risks related to the business objectives of INTRALOT GROUP. The framework incorporates the following components: 1. Objective setting: Objectives are clearly defined in order to be used as a reference point for the identification of risks. A process is in place for setting objectives that align with INTRALOT’s mission and are consistent with the corporate risk appetite. 2. Risk assessment: Risks are analyzed in relation to the objectives and by determining the likelihood of and impact from the realization of an adverse event. 3. Risk response: Management selects risk responses avoiding, accepting, reducing, or sharing risk developing a set of actions to align risks with the entity's risk tolerances and risk appetite. 4. Event identification: Internal and external events affecting the achievement of INTRALOT objectives are identified. 5. Internal environment: The internal environment sets the basis for how risk is viewed and addressed by people, including risk management philosophy and risk appetite, integrity and ethical values, and the environment in which they operate. 6. Control activities: Policies, procedures, strategies, and action plans in general are established and implemented to help ensure the risk responses are effectively carried out. 7. Information and communication: Relevant information is identified, captured, and communicated in a form and time frame that enables people to carry out their responsibilities. 8. Monitoring: Risk is monitored, and modifications made as necessary. Monitoring is accomplished through ongoing management activities, separate evaluations, or both. Description of significant risks and uncertainties FINANCIAL RISKS The Group's international activities create several financial risks in the Group's operation, due to constant changes in the global financial environment. The Group beyond the traditional risks of liquidity risk and credit risk also faces market risk. The most significant of these risks are currency risk and interest rate risk. The risk management program is a dynamic process that is constantly evolving and adapted according to market conditions and aims to minimize potential negative impact on financial results. The basic risk management policies are set by Group Management. The risk management policy is implemented by the Treasury Department of the Group which operates under specific guidelines approved by management.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 45 Credit risk The Group does not have significant credit risk concentration because of the wide dispersion of its customers and the fact that credit limits are set through signed contracts. The maximum exposure of credit risk amounts to the aggregate values presented in the financial position. In order to minimize the potential credit risk exposure arising from cash and cash equivalents, the Group sets limits regarding the amount of credit exposure to any financial institution. Moreover, in order to secure its transactions even more, the Group adopted an internal rating system, regarding credit rating evaluation, using the relevant financial indices. Liquidity risk Prudent liquidity management means maintaining adequate liquidity, funding ability through approved credit limits, and ability to repay liabilities. The Group has established specific policies to manage and monitor its liquidity in order to continuously have sufficient cash and liquid non-core assets that can meet its obligations. In addition, the Group has set up a system of monitoring and constant optimization of its operating and investing costs in the framework of its liquidity management policies. Further analysis of the maturity of the financial liabilities of the Group is provided in note 2.33 of the annual financial statements. Market Risk 1) Foreign Exchange risk Fluctuations in exchange rates can have significant effects on the Group’s currency positions. Group transactions are carried out in more than one currency and therefore there is a high exposure in foreign exchange rate fluctuations against the euro, which is the main underlying economic currency. On the other hand, the Group’s activity abroad also helps to create an advantage in foreign exchange risk management, due to the diversification in the currency portfolio. This kind of risk mainly results from commercial transactions in foreign currency as well as investments in foreign entities. The Group employs various strategies for hedging foreign exchange risk such as collecting foreign currency dividends from its subsidiaries abroad. The Group’s policy regarding the foreign exchange risk concerns not only the parent company but also the Group’s subsidiaries. Further analysis of the sensitivity analysis on foreign exchange variations and currency hedging derivatives is provided in note 2.33 of the annual financial statements. 2) Interest rate risk The interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group's activities are closely linked to interest rates because of investments and long and short-term borrowings. To manage this risk category, the Group uses financial hedging instruments in order to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk. The Group's policy on managing its exposure to interest rate risk affects not only the parent company but also its subsidiaries for their loans concluded in euros or local currency. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to long-term borrowings of the Group's floating rate. The Group also manages interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of loans with fixed and floating rate borrowings. On 31 December 2024, approximately the 35% of the Group's borrowings are at a fixed rate (31/12/2023: 56%) with an average life of approximately 2,1 years. As a result, the impact of interest rate fluctuations on operating results and cash flows of the Group's operating activities is small.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 46 3) High leverage risk INTRALOT's ability to obtain significant additional financing to fund its operations and expansion depends on capital market conditions that affect interest rates and the associated costs of new financing. In March 2024, INTRALOT announced that the maturity of the loan signed on July 28, 2022, by its US subsidiary Intralot, Inc. ($230 million) with KeyBank National Association Inc. as the Administrative Bank and a Syndicate of Banks in the US, has been extended for an additional year, until July 2026. The loan agreement signed in 2022 with a syndicate of six US financial institutions also includes a revolving credit facility (Revolver Facility) of $50 million, which is fully available as of 31/12/2024 and can significantly assist in managing the Group’s liquidity. In the first quarter of 2024, the Group's management completed the issuance of a €130 million Bond Loan listed on the Athens Stock Exchange (maturing in February 2029), as well as the disbursement of a Syndicated Bond Loan, with an initial nominal value of €100 million, from a syndicate of 5 Greek banks (maturing in June 2025), directing the total funds raised to the full repayment of the outstanding amount plus interest of the 5,250% bonds maturing in September 2024. Regarding the €100 million Syndicated Loan, following a relevant request, the Company’s management received approval from the Syndication of Banks to extend its maturity until January 31, 2026. It is noted that the outstanding balance of this loan, as of the date of signing the financial statements, was €90 million, following the repayment of €5,0 million on September 30, 2024, and €5,0 million on March 31, 2025. Additionally, management is currently reviewing a range of strategic options regarding the Group's total bank debt and anticipates being able to announce more details about this soon. Taking into account the above, which, combined with the continuous improvement in operational profitability, resulted in the adjusted leverage ratio of the consolidated results being at 2.85x as of the date of the 2024 financial results publication, management believes that the risk of high leverage is at acceptable levels to ensure the maintenance of healthy financial ratios and support the Group's activities. Further analysis of the Group's leverage is provided in note 2.33 of the annual financial statements. OPERATING RISKS Gaming sector and economic activity The gaming market is affected by the economic cycles since lottery products are consumer products. However, the gaming sector is more resilient than other sectors of the economy in periods of economic crisis. Specifically, during an economic downturn, frequent draw games (like KENO or VLTs) are most likely to present a reduction in revenues, while lotto type games are less affected. With its international expansion, INTRALOT has achieved significant diversification and has reduced its dependency on the performance of individual markets and economies. Gaming Taxation The financial crisis has increased the budget deficits of many countries. The increase of the taxation of lottery games constitutes sometimes an easy, but not correct in Group’s opinion, solution for the governments to finance these deficits. Nevertheless, such measures may affect INTRALOT’s financial results.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 47 Regulatory risk The gaming industry is subject to extensive regulations and oversight and regulatory requirements vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Because of the broad geographical reach of INTRALOT’s operations, it is subject to a wide range of complex gaming laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which it is licensed or operate. These regulations govern, for example, advertisement, payouts, taxation, cash and anti-money laundering compliance procedures and other specific limitations, such as the number of gaming machines in a given POS and their proximity to each other. Most jurisdictions require that INTRALOT be licensed. If a license, approval or finding of suitability is required by a regulatory authority and INTRALOT fails to seek or does not receive the necessary approval, license or finding of suitability, then it may be prohibited from providing its products or services for use in the particular jurisdiction. INTRALOT relies on government licenses in order to conduct its main business activities and termination of these licenses would have a material adverse effect on Group revenue. Changes in regulatory environment in any particular jurisdictions may have a material adverse impact on Group results, cash flows, business operations or prospects. Technological changes The gaming industry is characterized by rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards. Many of INTRALOT’s software and hardware products are based on proprietary technologies. INTRALOT’s competitiveness in the future will depend on its ability to respond to technological changes and satisfy future technology demands by developing or licensing innovative and appealing products in a timely and cost-effective manner. INTRALOT invests significant financial resources in R&D efforts to develop innovative products so as to compete effectively in the gaming markets. Emerging markets risk INTRALOT operates and offers its products and services in many countries, actively operating in rapidly growing and emerging markets. Potential social, political, legal and economic instability in these markets, such as the political turmoil in Turkey in 2016, may pose significant risks to the Group ability to conduct its business and expand its activities in these markets. Although management believes its operations in Turkey have not been affected, there can be no assurances such events will not have an impact in the future. Competition risk and margin squeeze Intralot operates in a highly competitive industry and its success depends on its ability to effectively compete with numerous domestic and foreign companies. Also, Intralot is heavily dependent on its ability to renew its long-term contracts with its customers and could lose substantial revenue and profits if is unable to renew such contracts or renew them with less favorable terms (profit margins, smaller range of services, etc.) due to high competition during public tender process. Environmental Sustainability INTRALOT embodiesenvironmental sustainability by identifying best practices and perform green initiatives that align with its' values, in order to reduce its' environmental footprint. Paper and energy consumption are the largest environmental impacts identified. INTRALOT is committed to reducing the amount of waste and improve its' recycling rates. Additionally, it reduces the use of physical resources such as paper and ink by reducing printing within the offices. INTRALOT is measuring its environmental impact in order to operate in a more sustainable way in the future.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 51 ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES (“APM”) The Group uses Alternative Performance Measurements ("APM") in decision-making regarding its financial, operational and strategic planning as well as for the evaluation and publication of its performance. These APMs serve to better understand the financial and operating results of the Group, its financial position and the cash flow statement. Alternative indicators ("APM") may not be comparable with similarly titled measures presented by other companies, should always be taken into account in conjunction with the financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS and under no circumstances replace them.

The pre-emption right should be exercised within the deadline set by the Company's body which decided on the increase. Such deadline can under no circumstances be less than fourteen (14) days, without prejudice to the provisions regarding deadline for payment of the share capital, as specified in Article 20 of L.4548/2018.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 56 of paragraph 2 of Article 25 of L.4548/2018, the deadline set for the exercise of the pre-emption right starts as of the date when the relevant decision of the Board of Directors was made regarding determination of the price of disposal of the new shares. After the expiration of such deadlines, the shares which have not been paid according to everything specified hereinabove, shall be disposed of by the Company's Board of Directors at its discretion at a price which cannot be less than the price paid by the shareholders at the time of the increase. In the event that the Company's body which decided on the increase of the capital fails to set the deadline for the exercise of the pre-emption right, then such deadline or any extension thereof, is set upon decision of the Company's Board of Directors within the period of time specified in Article 20 of L. 4548/2018. The invitation regarding the exercise of the pre-emption right should also specify the deadline for the exercise of such right and is subject to publication by the Company in the Government Gazette. Without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph 2 of Article 25 of L. 4548/2018, the invitation regarding the exercise of the pre-emption right and the notification regarding the deadline set for the exercise of the pre-emption right, according to everything specified hereinabove, may be omitted, provided that shareholders representing the entire share capital were present in the meeting and provided that they were notified of the deadline set for the exercise of the pre-emption right or declared that they have decided whether they shall exercise or not the pre-emption right. The publication of the invitation may be replaced by a registered letter, return receipt requested. Upon decision of the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders made in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4 of Article 130 and paragraph 2 of Article 132 of L. 4548/2018, the pre-emption right specified in Article 26 of L. 4548/2018, may be limited or abolished. Such decision can only be made in the event that the Company's Board of Directors has submitted to the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders a written report specifying the reasons why the pre-emption right should be curtailed or abolished and justifying the price which is suggested for the issue of the new shares.

The Capital may be increased, in part, by contributions in cash and, in part, by contribution in kind. In this case, the competent body which decides on the increase should declare that the fact that shareholders who contribute in kind do not participate in the increase, which is made by contribution in cash too, does not constitute an exclusion of theirs of the pre-emption right, if the percentage of contributions in kind in comparison to the entire amount of increase is at least equal to the percentage of the share capital owned by those shareholders, who make the said contributions. In case of increase of the capital partially by contribution in cash and partially by contribution in kind, the value of contributions in kind should have been assessed, in accordance with the provisions of Articles 17 and 18 of L. 4548/2018, before any relevant decision is made.” “4. Upon decision of the General Meeting of the Company's Shareholders made, in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4 of Article 130 and paragraph 2 of Article 132 of L.4548/2018, a plan may be prepared for the disposal of shares to the members of the Board of Directors and to the personnel of the Company and of other affiliated companies as defined in Article 32 of L.4308/2014, in the form of a pre-emption right (option), on the terms and conditions of such decision, while a summary of such decision is subject to publication.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 60 ΙΙI. Deviations from the Corporate Governance Code Hellenic Corporate Governance Code Explanation/Justification for the Deviation from the Specific Practices of the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code 2.2.15 The company ensures that the diversity criteria concern, in addition to the members of the Board of Directors, senior and/or senior management with specific representation objectives by gender, as well as timetables for achieving them. The Company has not adopted a specific diversity policy with regard to gender balance for the senior and C-level executives. However, the Company’s Code of Conduct states that it operates under fair and lawful human resource management procedures without discrimination on the basis of age, race, gender, color, national origin, religion, health, political or ideological views, or other characteristics of employees protected by laws and regulations. The Company’s objective is the fair and equitable treatment of all employees, including their improvement and development. The Company estimates that it will take considerable time to study, formulate and adopt diversity criteria for the senior and top management. It is estimated that there is no risk from this deviation for as long as it exists. 2.2.21 The Chairman shall be elected by the independent non-executive members. In the event that the Chairman is elected by the non-executive members, one of the independent non-executive members shall be appointed, either as vice-Chairman or as a senior independent member (Senior Independent Director) 2.2.22. The independent non-executive Vice-Chairman or Senior Independent Director shall, as appropriate, have the following responsibilities: To support the Chairman, to act as a liaison between the Chairman and the members of the Board of Directors, to coordinate the independent non-executive members and lead the evaluation of the Chairman. In the current Board of Directors of the Company, the Chairman of the Board of Directors is an Executive Member and has the required knowledge and experience regarding the activities and operation of the Company. A non-executive member has been appointed as the vice-Chairman in accordance with the provisions of para. 2 of article 8 of Law 4706/2020, who, due to his long experience, involvement and participation in companies with a similar scope of activity to that of the Company, contributes to the adequate information of the non-executive members and their effective participation in the supervision and decision-making process. With the above procedure, the Company believes that the effective and productive
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 61 operation of the Board of Directors has been ensured. 2.4.14 The contracts of the executive members of the Board of Directors provide that the Board of Directors may require the refund of all or part of the bonus awarded, due to breach of contractual terms or incorrect financial statements of previous years or generally based on incorrect financial data, used for the calculation of this bonus. There is no such clause in the contracts of two of the four executive members of the Board. These contracts were concluded on a date prior to the entry into force of the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code. Accordingly, such a search may be made on the basis of the general provisions of Greek private law. In the contract of the other two executive members, concluded on a subsequent date, and after the entry into force of the Hellenic Corporate Governance Code, there is a relevant provision. It is considered that there is no risk from this deviation. ΙV.

In general, the Audit Committee considered, with regard to the above, that the Company is in full compliance with the legal and regulatory framework and adheres to all relevant rules and procedures. Provision of permitted non-audit services by the certified auditors The Committee shall monitor the compliance of the Certified Auditors with the provisions of Regulation (EU) 537/2014, as amended, as well as other relevant regulatory requirements regarding the level of total remuneration paid to them by the Company in relation to their total income or total income from audit services, so that their independence and objectivity are not compromised by the level of services provided to the Company. The Committee is responsible for approving the provision of non-audit services not prohibited by law. The Committee believes that the certified auditors have significant knowledge of the Group’s business and the way in which its accounting policies are applied. This means that in some cases it is considered more efficient for the certified auditors to provide the non-audit services themselves. Also, in some cases there may be confidentiality considerations that make the certified auditors the preferred choice for providing certain non-audit services. However, ensuring the objectivity and independence of certified auditors is of paramount importance. For this reason, the Committee ensures that the provision of such services does not in any way compromise their
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 101 independence or objectivity. For non-audit services not prohibited by law, the Committee considers and evaluates the following: - i. any potential threats to independence and objectivity arising from the provision of the service and any safeguards to eliminate or reduce such threats to the extent that they do not compromise the auditor’s independence and objectivity, - ii. the nature of the non-audit services, - iii. whether the auditing firm's skills and experience make it the most appropriate provider of the non-audit service, - iv. the fees incurred or to be incurred for the non-audit services, both individually and in the aggregate, in relation to the audit fees, including the specific terms and conditions (e.g., and any fee adjustments); and, - v. the criteria for the remuneration of the persons carrying out the audit. In 2024, the Committee reviewed the non-audit services proposed and undertaken by the auditing firms Grant Thornton, SOL Crowe (Crowe Greece) and BDO jointly and/or separately, having assessed the nature of the proposed services and received relevant clarifications, representations and assurances from the auditing firms, and has considered that they do not represent a threat to independence in accordance with Article 44 of Law 4449/2017 and Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 537/2014. In addition, the Committee in relation to the Certified Auditors must ensure that they maintain their independence and objectivity and are effective in carrying out the statutory audit. The Committee takes into account their annual declaration of independence and discusses with them any threats that may jeopardize their independence and the ways in which threats are being addressed. In 2024, the certified auditors provided the Audit Committee with a declaration of independence in accordance with the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants of the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code) and the ethical requirements related to the audit of financial statements in Greece. Based on the information provided by the Company’s and the Group’s services, no issues regarding the independence and objectivity of the Certified Auditors have arisen.

Independent Auditor’s Report To the Shareholders of “INTRALOT S.A.” Report on the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements Opinion We have audited the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements of the company “INTRALOT S.A.” (the Company), which comprise the separate and consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31,2024, and the separate and consolidated statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flow for the year then ended, as well as and the notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information. In our opinion, the accompanying separate and consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) as of December 31,2024, and of their financial performance and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as endorsed by the European Union. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as they have been transposed in Greek Legislation. Our responsibilities under those standards are described in the “Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements” section of our report. During our audit, we remained independent of the Company and the Group, in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Account ants (IESBA Code) as transposed in Greek legislation and the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements in Greece. We have fulfilled our responsibilities in accordance with the provisions of the currently enacted law and the requirements of the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Key audit matters Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the separate and the consolidated financial statements of the current annual period. These matters and the related risks of material misstatements were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate and the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key Audit Matters How our audit addressed the Key audit matter Impairment assessment of goodwill and intangible assets (consolidated and separate financial statements) As of December 31, 2024, the Group presented goodwill and intangible assets amounting to euro 179,5 mil. in the consolidated Statement of Financial Position, and the Company presented intangible assets amounting to euro 41,9 mil. According to the requirements of IAS 36, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for Our audit approach included, among others, the following procedures: • Assessment of management's assessment of whether there are indications of impairment of these assets. • Assessment of the appropriateness of the models used to determine either fair value or value in use.
impairment at least annually, while intangible assets with finite useful lives are tested for impairment when relevant indications arise. Determining the recoverable amount of these assets requires management to exercise judgment and make significant estimates. Given the significance of the balances of these assets in the seprate and consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the degree of subjectivity in the assumptions underlying the impairment analysis, and the significant judgments and estimates required by management, we evaluated the impairment assessment of these assets as one of the most significant audit matters. Management's disclosures regarding the accounting policy, judgments and estimates used, and the analysis of these items are included in notes 2.1.5, 2.1.7, and 2.16 of the corporate and consolidated financial statements. • Assessment of the reliability of the business plans prepared by management, taking into account, among other things, the comparison of key budget figures with actual financial figures. • Assessment of key assumptions by comparing them with external market information, including analyst reports and internal information. The key assumptions evaluated included revenue and profit margin trends, estimated investments in assets related to licenses and equipment, and discount rates. • Use of an auditor’s expert with expertise in valuations and business models to assess the mathematical accuracy of the model calculations and the reasonableness of the discount rates used. • Assessment of the sensitivity analysis of key assumptions and the potential impact on the recoverable value of investments. • Assessment of the adequacy of disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial statements in relation to this matter. Impairment assessment of investments in subsidiaries (separate financial statements) As of December 31, 2024, the Company held investments amounting to euro 281,8 mil. in subsidiaries, which are initially measured at acquisition cost and subsequently adjusted for impairment if necessary. To determine potential impairment, management compares the carrying amount of each subsidiary (Cash Generating Unit) with its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is determined as the value in use, supported by forecasts of future operating cash flows, which are inherently subjective and depend on various factors, such as expectations for future sales. Given the significance of the balance of investments in subsidiaries in the separate financial statements, the degree of subjectivity in the assumptions underlying the impairment analysis, and the significant judgments and estimates required by management, we assesed the impairment assessment of investments in Our audit approach included, among others, the following procedures: • Assessment of management's assessment of whether there are indications of impairment of these assets. Assessment of management's analysis, according to which the recoverable amounts of Cash Generating Units were correlated with the corresponding investments in subsidiaries. • Assessment of key assumptions by comparing them with external market information, including analyst reports and internal information. The key assumptions evaluated included revenue and profit margin trends, estimated investments in assets related to licenses and equipment, and discount rates. • Use of an auditor’s expert with expertise in valuations and business models to assess the mathematical accuracy of the model

Management's disclosures regarding the accounting policy, judgments and estimates used, and the analysis of these items are included in notes 2.1.5 and 2.17 of the separate and consolidated financial statements. calculations and the reasonableness of the discount rates used. • Assessment of the adequacy of disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial statements in relation to this matter. Other matter The separate and consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31.12.2023 were jointly audited by other audit firms. For the above-mentioned year, the certified auditors issued a report with an unqualified opinion dated March 29, 2024. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information. The other information is included in the Board of Directors’ Report, reference to which is made in the “Report on other Legal and Regulatory Requirements” section, in the Declaration of the Board of Directors members and in any other information which is either required by Law or the Company optionally incorporated, in the Annual Report required by Law 3556/2007, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the separate and consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the separate and consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the procedures performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate this matter. We have nothing to report in this respect. Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the separate and consolidated financial statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the separate and consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as endorsed by the European Union, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of separate and consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the separate and consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s and the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern principle of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The Audit Committee (art. 44 of Law 4449/2017) of the Company is responsible for overseeing the Company’s and the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the separate and consolidated financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate and the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs, as they have been transposed in Greek Legislation, will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these separate and consolidated financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs as they have been transposed in Greek Legislation, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate and consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s and the Group’s internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by Management. Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s and the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the separate and consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the separate and consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the separate and consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. Plan and perform the Group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming an opinion on the financial statements of the Group. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for purposes of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the audited year end and are therefore the key audit matters.

Regarding the above, the Management of the Group has already completed the issuance of a Retail Bond Loan on the Athens Stock Exchange in the amount of €130 million, excluding issuance expenses, whereas finalized the disbursement of a loan of €100 million with a consortium of 5 Greek banks, directing the total raised funds to the full repayment of the outstanding balance plus interest of the existing 5,250% bonds maturing in September 2024.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 130 Regarding the Syndicated Loan of €100 million, following a relevant request, the Company’s Management obtained approval from the Syndication of Banks to extend its maturity until January 31, 2026. It is noted that the outstanding balance of this loan at the date of signing the Financial Statements was €90 million, after the repayment of €5,0 million on September 30, 2024, and €5,0 million on March 31, 2025. Furthermore, the Management is currently reviewing a range of strategic options regarding the Group's total bank debt and expects to be able to announce further details on this matter soon. Therefore, the Management, taking into account the above-mentioned factors, as well as the continuous improvement in operating profitability, which has resulted in a (adjusted) leverage ratio of 2,85x based on the consolidated results as of the publication date of the 2024 annual results, along with all available information for the foreseeable future, believes that the Group has secured the ability to continue its activities smoothly and that the basis for preparing the Group's and the Company’s Financial Statements on the going concern principle is appropriate. 2.1.2 Statement of compliance These financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2024 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), including the International Accounting Standards (IAS) and Interpretations issued by International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), that have been endorsed by the European Union as of December 31, 2024.2.1.3 Financial Statements The consolidated and standalone Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (hereinafter IFRS) of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (hereinafter IFRIC Interpretations) as adopted by the European Union. INTRALOT’s Greek subsidiaries keep their accounting books and records and prepare their financial statements in accordance with GAS (L.4308/2014), the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and current tax regulations. INTRALOT’s foreign subsidiaries keep their accounting books and records and prepare their financial statements in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations in their respective countries. For the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, Group entities’ financial statements are adjusted and prepared in relation to the requirements of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 2.1.4 Changes in accounting policies For the preparation of the financial statements of period ended December 31, 2024, the accounting policies adopted are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the most recent annual financial statements (December 31, 2023), except for the below mentioned adoption of new standards and interpretations applicable for fiscal periods beginning at January 1, 2024. Standards and Interpretations compulsory for the fiscal year 2024 New standards, amendments of published standards and interpretations mandatory for accounting periods beginning on 1st January 2024. The Group’s assessment of the impact of these new and amended standards and interpretations is set out below.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 131 IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements 2020 Amendment ‘Classification of liabilities as current or non-current’ The amendment clarifies that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. Classification is unaffected by the expectations of the entity or events after the reporting date. The amendment also clarifies what IAS 1 means when it refers to the ‘settlement’ of a liability. 2022 Amendments ‘Non-current liabilities with covenants’ The new amendments clarify that if the right to defer settlement is subject to the entity complying with specified conditions (covenants), this amendment will only apply to conditions that exist when compliance is measured on or before the reporting date. Additionally, the amendments aim to improve the information an entity provides when its right to defer settlement of a liability is subject to compliance with covenants within twelve months after the reporting period. The 2022 amendments changed the effective date of the 2020 amendments. As a result, the 2020 and 2022 amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024 and should be applied retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8. As a result of aligning the effective dates, the 2022 amendments override the 2020 amendments when they both become effective in 2024. IFRS 16 (Amendment) ‘Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback’ The amendment clarifies how an entity accounts for a sale and leaseback after the date of the transaction. Sale and leaseback transactions where some or all the lease payments are variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are most likely to be impacted. An entity applies the requirements retrospectively back to sale and leaseback transactions that were entered into after the date when the entity initially applied IFRS 16. This amendment had no impact on the Group's financial statements. IAS 7 ‘Statement of Cash Flows’ and IFRS 7 ‘Financial Instruments’ (Amendments) - Disclosures: Supplier Finance Arrangements The amendments require companies to disclose information about their Supplier Finance Arrangements such as terms and conditions, carrying amount of financial liabilities that are part of such arrangements, ranges of payment due dates and liquidity risk information. Standards and Interpretations compulsory after December 31, 2024 The following new standards, amendments and IFRICs have been published but are in effect for the annual fiscal period beginning the 1st of January 2025 and have not been adopted from the Group earlier. IAS 21 ‘The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates’ (Amendments) - Lack of exchangeability (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025) These amendments require companies to apply a consistent approach in assessing whether a currency can be exchanged into another currency and, when it cannot, in determining the exchange rate to use and the disclosures to provide.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 132 IFRS 18 ‘Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements’ (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027) IFRS 18 was issued in April 2024. It sets out requirements on presentation and disclosures in financial statements and replaces IAS 1. Its objective is to make it easier for investors to compare the performance and future prospects of entities by changing the requirements for presenting information in the primary financial statements, particularly the statement of profit or loss. The new standard: requires presentation of two new defined subtotals in the statement of profit or lossoperating profit and profit before financing and income taxes. requires disclosure of management-defined performance measures subtotals of income and expenses not specified by IFRS that are used in public communications to communicate management’s view of an aspect of a company’s financial performance. To promote transparency, a company will be required to provide a reconciliation between these measures and totals or subtotals specified by IFRS. enhances the requirements for aggregation and disaggregation to help a company to provide useful information. requires limited changes to the statement of cash flows to improve comparability by specifying a consistent starting point for the indirect method of reporting cash flows from operating activities and eliminating options for the classification of interest and dividend cash flows. The new standard has retrospective application. It has not yet been endorsed by the EU. IFRS 19 'Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures’ (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027) IFRS 19 was issued in May 2024. It allows subsidiaries with a parent that applies IFRS in its consolidated financial statements to apply IFRS with reduced disclosure requirements. It applies to eligible subsidiaries that elect to adopt the standard in their consolidated, separate or individual financial statements. Eligible subsidiaries are those which do not have public accountability (as described in a relevant paragraph in IFRS for Small and Medium-sized Entities) and belong to a parent that prepares and publishes consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS. These subsidiaries will continue to apply the recognition, measurement and presentation requirements in other IFRS, but they can replace the disclosure requirements in those standards with reduced disclosure requirements. The new standard: enables subsidiaries to keep only one set of accounting records―to meet the needs of both their parent company and the users of their financial statements; and reduces disclosure requirements―IFRS 19 permits reduced disclosures better suited to the needs of the users of their financial statements. The new standard has retrospective application. It has not yet been endorsed by the EU. Narrow scope amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures’ (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026) These amendments issued in May 2024: clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities, with a new exception for some financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system; clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) criterion;
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 133 add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some instruments with features linked to the achievement ESG targets); and update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). When an entity first applies the amendments, it is not required to restate comparative information, and is only permitted to do so if possible without the use of hindsight. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards Volume 11 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026) The amendments include clarifications, simplifications, corrections and changes aimed at improving the consistency of 5 IFRS Standards namely IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments', IFRS 1 'First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards', IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures', IFRS 10 'Consolidated Financial Statements' and IAS 7 'Statement of Cash Flows'. None of these are expected to have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent electricity’ (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026) These amendments apply only to contracts that expose an entity to variability in the underlying amount of electricity because the source of its generation depends on uncontrollable natural conditions (such as weather) and specifically only to the nature-dependent electricity component of these contracts (not to electricity certificates).Contracts in scope include both contracts to buy or sell, physically or virtually, nature-dependent electricity and financial instruments that reference such electricity. The amendments: address how IFRS 9 ‘own-use’ requirements would apply for physical PPAs; permit hedge accounting if these contracts are used as hedging instruments; and add to IFRS 7 new disclosure requirements to enable investors to understand the effect of these contracts on a company’s financial performance and cash flows. Some of the amendments are subject to prospective application and others to retrospective application. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 134 2.1.5 Material accounting policies The information related to the accounting policies that are considered material for the preparation of the financial statements are the following: Consolidation base The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of INTRALOT S.A. and its subsidiaries as at the end of each reporting period. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring in line any dissimilar accounting policies that may have existed. All intercompany balances and transactions, including unrealized profits arising from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealized losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has: Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee) Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and The ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of its returns. When the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including: The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee Rights arising from other contractual arrangements The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income and financial position from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary. Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions (i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners). Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it: derecognizes the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary, derecognizes the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests in the former subsidiary (including any components of other comprehensive income attributable to them), derecognizes the cumulative translation differences that have been recorded in equity, recognizes the fair value of the consideration received from the transaction, recognizes any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value at the date when control is lost,
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 135 reclassifies to profit or loss, (or transfers directly to retained earnings if required in accordance with other IFRSs), the amounts that have been recorded in the parent’s share of other comprehensive income, recognizes any resulting difference as a gain or loss in profit or loss. Where there is a loss of control of a subsidiary, the consolidated financial statements include the results for the part of the reporting year during which the Group has control. Business combination and goodwill a) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities that are controlled by the Group. Subsidiaries are consolidated using the acquisition method according to IFRS 3. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred measured at acquisition date fair value and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each subsidiary acquired, the Group elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition- related costs are expensed as incurred and included to income statement. At the acquisition date, the Group classifies or designates the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of the contractual terms, economic conditions, its operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions as they exist at the acquisition date. In a business combination achieved in stages, the Group remeasures its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition-date fair value and recognizes the resulting gain or loss in profit or loss. In prior reporting periods, the Group may have recognized changes in the value of its equity interest in the acquiree in other comprehensive income (i.e. due to the fact that the investment has been classified as available for sale). If so, the amount that was recognized in other comprehensive income shall be recognized on the same basis as would be required if the Group had disposed directly of the previously held equity interest. The Group recognizes any contingent consideration at the fair value, at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration which is deemed to be an asset or a liability will be recognized in accordance with IFRS 9 either in income statement or as a change in other comprehensive income. If the contingent consideration is not within the scope of IFRS 9, it is measured in accordance with the appropriate IFRS. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it shall not be remeasured until it is finally settled within equity. Goodwill in a business acquisition is initially measured at cost being the excess of the consideration transferred, the amount recognized for non-controlling interests and any previous interest held, over the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed of the acquiree. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognized at the acquisition date. If the re-assessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognized in profit or loss. Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign subsidiary and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate accordingly. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Based on IFRS 3 “Business combinations”, Goodwill is not amortized. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s cash-
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 136 generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit, to which the goodwill relates. Where recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Where goodwill forms part of a cash generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the operation disposed of is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation. Goodwill disposed of in this circumstance is measured on the basis of the relative values of the operation disposed of and the portion of the cash- generating unit retained. Any impairment losses that have been recognized for goodwill, will not be reversed in future periods. Investments in subsidiaries are stated in the individual statement of financial position of the Company at their cost less any impairment in value. b) Investment in associates and joint ventures Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but is not control or joint control over those policies. A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The considerations made in determining significant influence or joint control are similar to those necessary to determine control over subsidiaries. The Group’s investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Under this method, investments in associates or joint ventures are carried in the statement of financial position at cost plus post acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate or joint venture. Goodwill relating to the associate or joint venture is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is neither amortized nor individually tested for impairment. The income statement reflects the Group’s share of the post -acquisition associate’s or joint venture’s results after taxes and non-controlling interests of the associate’s or joint venture’s subsidiaries. Any change in other comprehensive income of those i nvestees is presented as part of the Group’s other comprehensive income. Also, the Group’s share of the changes in associates’ or joint ventures’ equity is directly recognized to the consolidated statement of changes in equity. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate or joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate or joint venture. If an associate or joint venture uses accounting policies other than those of the Group for similar transactions and events in similar circumstances, adjustments are made to the associate’s or joint venture’s financial statements so as to apply the equity method. The financial statements of associates or joint ventures are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 137 If the Group’s share of losses of an associate or joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate or joint venture, the Group discontinues recognizing its share of further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture. After application of the equity method, the Group applies the requirements of the relative IFRSs to determine whether it is necessary to recognize any additional impairment loss with respect to its net investment in the associate or joint venture. The Group incurs impairment test at the end of each reporting period comparing the recoverable amount of the investment in associate or joint venture to its carrying value and recognizes the difference in the income statement of the period. The Group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date when it ceases to have significant influence over an associate or joint control over a joint venture and accounts for the investment in accordance with IFRS 9 measuring the investment at fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the investment in associate or joint venture is recognized in the income statement of the period. Investments in associates or joint venture are stated in the statement of financial position of the Company at their cost less any impairment in value. Foreign Currency Translation The functional and presentation currency of INTRALOT S.A. and its subsidiaries which are located in Greece is the euro (€). The Group’s consolidated financial statements are presented in euros. For each entity the Group determines the functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. a) Transactions and balances Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group’s entities at their respective functional currency spot rates at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. All resulting differences are taken to the consolidated income statement with the exception of differences on foreign currency borrowings that provide a hedge against a net investment in a foreign entity. These are taken directly to Other Comprehensive Income until the disposal of the net investment, at which time they are recognized in the consolidated income statement. Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those borrowings are also dealt with in Other Comprehensive Income. Exchange differences resulting from financial assets and liabilities (intragroup loans and long term nontrade receivables/payables for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future) that has been classified as part of an entity’s net investment in a subsidiary with foreign operations, are recognized in income statement in the separate financial statements of the entity or/and subsidiary. In the consolidated financial statements, the above exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and included in the exchange differences reserve. When the settlement of the above financial assets and liabilities is planned or likely to occur in the foreseeable future, cumulative exchange differences in reserves are reclassified in consolidated income statement since the financial assets and liabilities cease to be part of an entity’s net investment in a subsidiary with foreign operations. The same accounting treatment of reclassification applied on the subsidiary disposal. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate as at the date of initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 138 currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of gain or loss on change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income or profit or loss are also recognized in other comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively). Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the spot rate of exchange at the reporting date. b) Group companies The functional currency of the overseas subsidiaries is the currency of the country in which these subsidiaries are located and operate. As at the reporting date, the assets and liabilities of these overseas subsidiaries are translated into the presentation currency of INTRALOT S.A. at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date and, their statements of comprehensive income are translated at the weighted average exchange rates for the year. The resulting exchange differences arising on the retranslation are taken directly to a separate component of Other Comprehensive Income. On disposal of a foreign entity, the deferred cumulative amount recognized in Other Comprehensive Income relating to that particular foreign operation shall be transferred to the income statement. Tangible assets Tangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. Such cost includes the cost of replacing the tangible assets and borrowing costs for long-term construction assets if the recognition criteria are met. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the asset as follows:
Buildings (owned) 20 to 30 years
Installations on third party property Over the duration of the lease but not less than 5% per annum
Installations and Equipment 5 to 15 years
Machinery and Equipment 4 to 10 years
Computer Hardware 20% to 30% per annum
Transportation Equipment-Motor vehicles 7 years or 15% per annum
Transportation Equipment-Trucks etc. 5 years or 20% per annum
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in the income statement in the year the item is derecognized. The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each financial year end, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate. As regards hardware and software leased under operating lease, these assets, in the group statement of financial position are disclosed in acquisition cost values and are depreciated using the straight-line method and according to the lower period between the useful life and the contract life, taking also into account their residual value at the end of the relative contract life as well as the collecting cost. In case of the respective contract’s renewal the assets’ remaining net book value is depreciated according to the renewed contract life.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 139 The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using an after-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for public traded companies or other available fair value indicators. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statement. Investment properties Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at historical cost less provisions for depreciation and impairment. Investment properties are derecognized either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss in the period of derecognition. Transfers are made to (or from) investment property only when there is a change in use. For a transfer from investment property to owner-occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent accounting is the carrying amount at the date of change in use. If owner-occupied property becomes an investment property, the Group accounts for such property in accordance with the policy stated under tangible assets up to the date of change in use. Intangible assets Intangible assets acquired individually, are capitalized at cost and those acquired through a business combination at fair values at the acquisition date. After initial recognition, intangibles are valued at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment in value. Useful lives of these intangibles are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangibles with finite useful lives are amortized as follows:
Software platforms Central operating software Central Network software Licenses Rights Over the duration of the longest contract
Other software 3 to 5 years
Central operating systems used for several projects are amortized over their expected useful life, up to 20 years. The expected useful life is determined by reference to the longest duration of the relevant contracts and the Intralot Group’s renewal track record in respect of such contract. Software that does not fall within the scope of particular contracts, is amortized at the expected useful life.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 140 Amortization of finite life intangibles is recognized as an expense in the income statement apportioned to the related cost centers. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash generating unit level. Intangibles, except development costs, internally generated are not capitalized and the costs are included in the income statement in the year they are incurred. The carrying values of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the intangible assets or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using an after-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the intangible asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for public traded companies or other available fair value indicators. For an intangible asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the intangible asset belongs. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statement. Useful lives are also assessed annually and any revisions do not have retrospective application. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset (that are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) are recognized in the income statement when the asset is derecognized. Research and Development Costs Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure incurred by individual project is capitalized if, and only if, the Group can demonstrate all of the following: (a) the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale (b) its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it (c) its ability to use or sell the intangible asset (d) how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits (e) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset (f) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development. Following the initial recognition of the development expenditure, the cost model is applied requiring the asset to be carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization of the capitalized development expenditure begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. Any expenditure capitalized is amortized over the period of expected future sales from the related project. The carrying value of development costs is reviewed for impairment annually when the asset is not yet in use, or more frequently when an indicator of impairment arises during the reporting year indicates that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 141 Financial instruments Financial assets (a) Recognition and measurement of financial assets The Group recognizes a financial asset in its statement of financial position when, and only when, it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Group initially recognizes trade and other receivables on the date of transaction. At initial recognition, under IFRS 9, all financial assets, except for certain trade receivables, are recognized initially at their fair value plus transaction costs (except financial assets measured at Fair Value through Profit or Loss, where transaction costs are expensed). (b) Derecognition of financial assets The Group ceases recognizing a financial asset when and only when: the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or the Group has transferred its contractual right to receive cash flows from an asset, or retains this right to receive cash flows from an asset but has assumed a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to a third or more parties, or has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of the asset, or has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset but has transferred the control of the asset. When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has assumed a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to a third or more parties, but in parallel has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognized to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement in the asset. When the Group’s continuing involvement takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset, the extent of continuing involvement is measured at the lower of the carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay (“the guarantee amount”). When the entity’s continuing involvement takes the form of a written or purchased option (or both) on the transferred asset (including cash-settled options), the extent of the entity’s continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that the Group may repurchase. However, in case of a written put option on an asset that is measured at fair value, the extent of the continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise. (c) Impairment of financial assets IFRS 9 requires the Group to recognize loss allowance for Expected Credit Losses (“ECLs”) on: Debt instruments at amortized cost, Debt instruments at FVOCI, and Contract assets (as defined in IFRS 15). ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses and are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive. The shortfall is then discounted at an approximation to the asset’s original effective rate. Under IFRS 9, loss allowances will be measured on either of the following bases: - 12-month ECLs: these are ECLs that result from possible default events within the 12 months after the reporting date; and - Lifetime ECLs: these are ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 142 Τhe Group applies the general model for recognizing expected credit losses rather than the simplified approach based on the relevant exemption provided by IFRS 9 due to the wide dispersion of its activities both geographically and due to the nature of the activities and the different characteristics of the counterparties (from small local gambling agencies to large state lotteries and other gambling organizations). This model follows a three-step approach to credit risk grading: Stage 1: Performing financial assets without credit risk deterioration: This stage includes financial assets whose credit risk has not deteriorated significantly since initial recognition or which have a low credit risk at the reporting date. Expected credit losses are calculated and recognized for the period of the next 12 months. Stage 2: Performing financial assets with credit risk deterioration: This stage includes financial assets whose credit risk has deteriorated significantly since initial recognition (unless they have a low credit risk at the reporting date) but there is no objective evidence of impairment. Expected credit losses are calculated and recognized for the full life of the financial asset. Stage 3: Non-performing financial assets: This stage includes financial assets for which there is objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date. Expected credit losses are calculated and recognized for the full life of the financial asset. For “Trade and other short term receivables”, “Other long term receivables” and “Contract assets” (as defined in IFRS 15), the Group calculates the ECLs according to the stage of each of them, examining them on a standalone basis. A key factor in recognizing expected credit losses over the life of a financial asset or over the next twelve months, is the credit risk significant deterioration after initial recognition or not, compared to the corresponding credit risk at the initial recognition of the financial asset. When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information. IFRS 9 makes a presumption that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due. However, this presumption can be rebut if there are reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort, that demonstrates that the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition even though the contractual payments are more than 30 days due. The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when the borrower/debtor is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, without recourse by the Group to actions such as realizing security, collateral, mortgage, etc. Objective presumption for a credit-impaired financial asset, is the delay in collection over the days set as a threshold for each of them (examining them on standalone basis). The range of days that have been set as a threshold for the Group ranges between 30 and 210. The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 143 The three components of the calculation model of ECLs are as follows: Exposure at default ("EAD"): which represents the amount of the Group's exposure at the reporting date. Probability of default ("PD"): an estimate of the probability of default based on historical data, assumptions and future estimates. The probability arises for each of the counterparties initially calculating the DSOs (Days Sales Outstanding), which are then compared to the threshold set for that counterparty to determine whether it is at default or not, and then weighted on the basis of its value weight and exponential time factors. Loss given default (“LGD”): which represents the estimate of the loss that will occur on the default date. For the calculation of the loss due to default, any collaterals/securities held by the Group are taken into account. The Group's held collaterals/securities for trade receivables at the reporting date relate to cash, as well as to mortgages on property. At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit impaired. A financial asset is “credit impaired” when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit impaired includes the following observable data about the following events: significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer; a breach of contract, such as a default or past due event; the lender, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, having granted to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider; it is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization; the disappearance of an active market for a financial asset because of financial difficulties; and the purchase or origination of a financial asset at a deep discount that reflects the incurred credit losses. Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt instrument at FVOCI, the loss allowance is charged to profit or loss and is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of amounts due. Non-derivative financial liabilities Financial liabilities include trade and other liabilities, bank overdrafts, loans and borrowings, as well as financial guarantee contracts. (a) Recognition and measurement of financial liabilities The Group recognizes a financial liability in its statement of financial position when, and only when, it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, financial liabilities are recognized at fair value and in case of loans and borrowings, less directly attributable transaction costs.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 144 (b) Classification of non-derivative financial liabilities Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost: All interest-bearing loans and credits are initially measured at their fair value, less directly attributable transaction costs for the issuance of the financial liability. Subsequently, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The amortized cost is estimated by taking into account any issuance costs, as well as any discount or premium on settlement. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. (c) Derecognition of financial liabilities Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation is cancelled, extinguished or not exists anymore. In the case that an existing liability is replaced by another from the same borrower but under substantially different terms, or in case that there are substantial changes in terms of an existing liability, then the initial financial liability is derecognized and a new liability recognized, and the resulting difference between balances is recognized in the income statement. Offsetting of financial instruments The financial instruments are offset when the Group, according to law, has this legal right and there is an intention to settle them on a net basis (among them) or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business of the Group, less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Provisions for impairment of the inventory’s value are recorded when it is needed and recognized in the income statement. Trade and other short-term receivables Trade receivables are recognized and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful provisions, that are estimated according to IFRS 9. When the inflow of cash or cash equivalents arising from goods sale or services rendering is deferred, the fair value of the consideration may be less than the nominal amount of cash received or receivable. When the arrangement effectively constitutes a finance transaction, the fair value of the consideration is determined by discounting all future receipts using the prevailing interest rate for a similar instrument of an issuer with a similar credit rating. The difference between the fair value and the nominal amount of the consideration is recognized as interest revenue in the future periods, in accordance with IFRS 9. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position include cash at bank, short-term deposits and cash in hand along with other high liquidity investments that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and have an original maturity of three months or less. Bank overdrafts are included in the short-term bank loans in the statement of financial position. Also, cheques payables that have not been paid at the reporting date are included in short-term liabilities.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 145 For cash flow statement purposes, cash and cash equivalents include what is defined above, without the netting of outstanding bank overdrafts. Long Term Liabilities All long-term liabilities are initially recognized at cost. Following initial recognition, liabilities that are denominated in foreign currency are valued at the closing exchange rate of each reporting date. Any interest expenses are recognized on an accruals basis. Provisions and Contingent Liabilities Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain the expense relating to any provision is presented in the income statement net of any reimbursement. Provisions are re-examined at the reporting date and are adjusted so as to represent the present value of the expense that will be needed to settle the liability. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at an after-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a borrowing cost. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements but are disclosed, except if the probability of a potential outflow of funds embodying economic benefits is remote. Contingent assets are not recognized but are disclosed when the probability of a cash inflow is probable. Leases Entity of the Group as lessee: Right-of-use assets The Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Unless the Group is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognized right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-of- use assets are subject to impairment. Lease liabilities At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in- substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 146 of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset. Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases that are considered of low value (i.e., below USD5.000). Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Entity of the Group as Lessor: In cases of hardware and software leasing through operating lease, these assets are included in the Group’s tangible assets. The lease income that occurs is recognized on a straight-line basis through the contract period. When fixed assets are leased through financial leasing, the present value of the lease is recognized as a receivable. The difference between the gross amount of the receivable and its present value is registered as a deferred financial income. The income from the lease is recognized in the period’s income statement during the lease using the net investment method, which represents a constant periodic return. Share capital Treasury shares Share capital includes common and preference shares without voting right, which have been issued and being traded. Share premium reserve includes the excess of the shares par value received consideration. Any costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown as a deduction in share premium reserve. Treasury shares represent shares of the parent company held by the Group. Treasury shares are stated at cost and are deducted from Equity. Upon acquisition, disposal, issuance or cancellation of treasury shares, no gain or loss is recognized in the income statement. The consideration given or received and the related gains or losses from the settlement are recognized directly in Equity. Staff Retirement Indemnities Staff retirement indemnities are measured at the present value of the defined benefit obligations at the reporting date, through the recognition of the employees’ right to benefits based on years of service over their expected working life. The above liabilities are calculated using financial and actuarial assumptions and are determined based on an actuarial valuation method (Projected Unit Credit Method). The net pension costs for the period are included in the accompanying statement of comprehensive income and consists of the present value of the benefits earned during the year, interest cost on the benefit liability, past service cost and any other additional pension costs that are recognized within staff costs in income statement, and the actuarial gains or losses that are fully recognized when they occur, in other comprehensive income without future
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 147 reclassification in income statement. Total past service costs are recognized in income statement at the earlier of when the amendment occurs or when the Group recognizes the related restructuring or termination costs. The Company’s pension benefit schemes are not funded. During 2021, Group changed its accounting policy after International’s Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("the Committee") issued the final agenda decision under the title "Attributing Benefits to Periods of Service" (IAS 19), which includes explanatory material regarding the way of distribution of benefits in periods of service following a specific defined benefit plan proportionate to that defined in Article 8 of Law 3198/1955 regarding provision of compensation due to retirement (the "Labor Law Defined Benefit Plan"). In particular, the aforementioned final decision of the Committee's agenda provides explanatory information on the application of the basic principles and regulations of IAS 19 in respect of the distribution of benefits in periods of service similar to that of the Labor Law Defined Benefit Plan. This explanatory information differentiates the way in which the basic principles and regulations of IAS 19 have been applied in Greece in the previous years. The implementation of this final decision results in the distribution of benefits for the last 16 years until the date of retirement of employees in accordance with the applicable legal framework. Based on the above, the Company applied on 31/12/2021 the new accounting policy with retroactive application in accordance with the provisions of IAS 8. State Insurance Programs The Company employees are covered by the main State Insurance Organization for the private sector (EFKA) that provides pension and medical benefits. Each employee is obliged to contribute a percentage of the monthly salary to EFKA while part of the total contribution is covered by the Company. On retirement, EFKA is responsible for the payment of pensions to employees. Consequently, the Company does not have any legal or constructive obligation for the payment of future benefits based on this program. Revenue recognition Revenues are recognized in the period they are realized and the related amounts can be reliably measured. Revenues are measured at their fair value of the consideration received excluding discounts, consideration (bonus, marketing incentives, etc.) payable to customers, sales tax and duties. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognized: Hardware and Software: This category includes the supply of hardware and software (gaming machines, central computer systems, gaming software, communication systems etc.) to Lotteries so that they can operate their on-line games. Revenue is recognized by the Company either (a) as a direct sale of hardware and software, or (b) as operating lease, or (c) as finance lease for a predetermined time period according to the contract with the customer. In the first (a) case, the income from the sales of hardware and software (in a determined value) is recognized when the significant risks and rewards arising from the ownership are transferred to the buyer. In the second (b) case that consists income from operating lease, is defined per case either on straight- line basis over the lease term or as a percentage on the Lottery Organization’s gross turnover received by the player-customer (in this case income recognition occurs the moment that the player-customer places the related consideration in order to participate in a game).
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 148 In the third (c) case that consists income from finance lease, it is defined using the net investment method (the difference between the gross amount of the receivable and its present value is registered as a deferred financial income). This method represents a constant periodic return, recognizing the revenue from the finance lease in the period’s income statement during the lease term. Installation, (technical) support and maintenance services: This category includes the rendering of installation, technical support and maintenance services to Lotteries so that they can operate their on-line games. These services are sold either bundled (multi-element arrangements) together with the sale of technology products (hardware and software) to customers, or on their own in separate contracts with the customers. The Group accounts for the sales technology products (hardware and software) and installation, technical support and maintenance services as separate deliverables of bundled sales and allocates consideration between these deliverables using the relative fair value approach. Revenue recognition related to support services occurs by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction, at the reporting date. Game management: The Group undertakes the provision of value-added services, such as the design, organization and/ or management of games, advertising and sales promotion, establishment of sales network, risk management (for fixed odds games) etc. to organizations internationally. Group revenues mainly consist of a percentage of the turnover of the games to which the above services are provided, the size of which is contractually determined based on the market size, the type of services rendered, the duration of the contract and other parameters. Revenue recognition occurs the moment that the player-customer pays the related consideration in order to participate in a game and equals to an amount calculated as a percentage on the total amount received by the lottery games organization from the player-customer, excluding consideration (bonus, marketing incentives, etc.) payable to customer or to customers of Group’s customer, when the Group operates as an agent. Game operation: In this category, the Group has the full game operating license in a country. In the case of operating the game each Group company undertakes the overall organization of the games provided (installation of information systems, advertising and promotion, establishment of sales network, receipt of the payments from players, payment of winnings to players, etc. Revenue recognition in this category occurs the time that the relevant events or draws are taking place and is valued as the total amount received from the player-customer in order to participate in a game, excluding consideration (bonus, marketing incentives, etc.) payable to customer. Especially in the case of VLT revenue measured as the “net drop” (total price minus winnings/payout) received from the player-customer. Interest income: Interest income is recognized in the income statement using the effective interest rate method. Dividends: Dividend income is recognized in the income statement when the Group’s right to receive the payment is established.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 149 Rental income: Rental income arising from operating leases on is accounted for on a straight-line basis during the lease term. Taxes Income tax Current and deferred income taxes are calculated based on the financial statements of each entity included in the consolidated financial statements, based on the Greek tax laws or other tax frameworks within which the foreign subsidiaries operate. Income tax is calculated based on the profit of each entity as adjusted on their tax returns, for additional taxes arising from audits performed by the tax authorities and deferred taxes based on enacted or substantially enacted tax rates. In some foreign countries, a tax is calculated according to a simplified framework, sometimes referred to as a "simplified tax" which essentially replaces income tax to avoid the complex calculations required. The Group classifies the charge for the simplified tax in the Income Statement on the "Taxes" line. Deferred income tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount. Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences except: If the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investment in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and carry-forward unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, or the unused tax losses can be utilized except if: the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and, in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investment in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that apply at the year when the asset is expected to be realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred income tax is not measured by the Group as regards the undistributed profits of subsidiaries, branches, associates and joint ventures due to the elimination of intercompany profits, from relevant transactions, as they are considered insignificant.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 150 Income tax relating to items recognized directly in Other Comprehensive Income is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income and not in the income statement. Sales tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of sales tax except: Where the sales tax incurred on a purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the sales tax is recognized as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable and Receivables and payables that are stated with the amount of sales tax included. The net amount of sales tax recoverable from, or payable to, is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. Earnings per share The basic earnings per share (EPS) are calculated by dividing net profit by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each year, taking into account the average number of ordinary shares of the parent held by the Group as treasury shares. The diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profits attributable to the equity holders of the parent company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year (adjusted for the effect of the average number of share option rights outstanding during the year).2.1.6 EBITDA & EBIT The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) do not define the content of the accounts "Profit / (Loss) before tax, financial, investment results, and depreciation" (EBITDA) and "Profit / (Loss) before tax, financial, investment results" (EBIT). The Group, taking into account the nature of its operations, defines "EBITDA" as "Profit / (Loss) before tax" adjusted for the items "Profit / (Loss) from equity method consolidations”, "Profit / (Loss) to the net monetary position”, "Exchange differences, "Interest and similar income”, "Interest and similar expenses", "Income / (Expenses) from participations and investments”, Gain/(loss) from assets disposal, impairment loss and write-off of assets", "Reorganization expenses”, and "Depreciation of tangible and intangible assets”. Additionally, the Group defines "EBIT" as "Profit / (Loss) before tax" adjusted for the items "Profit / (Loss) from equity method consolidations”, "Profit / (Loss) to the net monetary position," "Exchange differences”, "Interest and similar income”, "Interest and similar expenses", "Income / (Expenses) from participations and investments” and “Gain/(loss) from assets disposal, impairment loss and write-off of assets".

2.1.7 Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities that included in the financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its judgements, estimates and assumptions that mainly refer to goodwill impairment, allowance for doubtful receivables expected credit losses, provision for staff retirement indemnities, provision for impairment of inventories value, impairment of tangible and intangible assets as well as estimation of their useful lives, recognition of revenue and expenses, pending legal cases, provision for income tax and recoverability of deferred tax assets. These judgements, estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors including expectations of future events that are considered reasonable under the circumstances. The key judgements, estimates and assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of uncertainty at the reporting date of the financial statements and have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are consistent with those applied and were valid at the reporting date of the annual financial statements December 31, 2023.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 152 A) Accounting Estimates & Assumptions Goodwill, tangible and intangible assets impairment and Investments Management tests goodwill for impairment annually (as at 31 December) or more frequently if events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be reduced in accordance with accounting policy described in note 2.1.5. The carrying values of tangible and intangible assets and Investments are reassessed for possible need for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the value reported on may not be recovered in accordance with the accounting policy described in note 2.1.5. The recoverable amounts of cash generating units (CGU) have been determined based on “value in use” calculations using appropriate estimates regarding future cash flows and discount rates. The determination of value in use is obtained by the present value of estimated future cash flows, as expected to be generated by each CGU (discounted cash flow method - DCF). The cash flows are derived from the most recent approved by the administration budgets for the next three years and does not include any estimated future cash inflows or outflows expected to arise from future restructurings or from improving or enhancing the asset's performance, which is tested for impairment. The expected cash flow projections beyond the period covered by the most recent budgets, estimated by extrapolating the projections based on the budgets using a steady or declining growth rate for subsequent years, which does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for products, industries, countries in which the Group operates, or for the market in which the asset is used. The Group makes estimates and beyond the period of three years where has signed revenue contracts beyond three years as well as in cases where management believes that based on market data and historical renewals track record of the Group, it is very possible to renew relevant contracts beyond this period. Cash flow projections are based on reasonable and supportable assumptions that represent management's best estimate of the range of economic conditions that will exist over the remaining useful life of the asset, giving greater weight to external evidence. Management assesses the reasonableness of the assumptions on which its current cash flow projections are based by examining the causes of differences between past cash flow projections and actual cash flows. Management also ensures that the assumptions on which its current cash flow projections are based are consistent with past actual outcomes, provided that effects of subsequent events or circumstances, that did not exist when those actual cash flows were generated, make this appropriate. Further details are provided in note 2.1.5. Income Tax Provision The companies of the Group are subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. The provision for income taxes in accordance with IAS 12 "Income Taxes" refers to the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities and includes provision for current income taxes and the provision for any additional taxes that may arise as a result of the audit of the tax authorities. The provision for income tax of the Group for numerous transactions require significant subjective judgment, making tax exact calculation uncertain during the ordinary course of business of the Group. The estimate may differ from the final tax due to future changes in tax legislation or to unforeseen effects of the final determination of the tax liability for each year from the tax authorities. Where the final tax resulting from tax audits differ from the amounts that were initially assessed and recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination of tax differences occurred. Further details are provided in notes 2.1.5.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 153 Deferred Tax Assets Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized on temporary differences between the accounting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the tax rates that have been enacted and are expected to apply in the periods when the differences are expected to be eliminated. Deferred tax assets are recognized for the deductible temporary differences and tax losses carried forward to the extent that it is probable that there will be taxable income available to be used against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax losses. The Group considers the existence of future taxable income and ongoing follow a conservative tax planning strategies in assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets. The determination of future taxable income is made through the systematic process of budgeting, at the parent company level as well as at the level of subsidiaries, which are mainly based on already signed long-term revenue contracts. Almost all of the Group's revenue (parent and subsidiaries) derives from long-term contracts signed making the risk of discrepancies between budgeted and actual revenue as low, something that applies to the costs that usually are in a proportion relationship with the revenue of the related contracts. In any case there is a system of monitoring for the verification of these budgets and conducting relevant adjustments, resulting in the safe keeping of any final discrepancies at low levels. The accounting estimates related to deferred tax assets requires management to make assumptions about the timing of future events, the probability of expected future taxable income and available tax planning possibilities. Further details are provided in 2.1.5. Allowance for doubtful receivables expected credit losses In determining the expected credit losses and the recognition of a relevant doubtful provision, the Group applies the general model as described in the respective paragraph of the accounting policies in note 2.1.5. The information required to determine whether there is a significant deterioration in credit risk after initial recognition and to determine the stage to which each financial asset belongs and to calculate the provision for impairment is based on historical and future data and includes significant estimates. Past experience and estimates for the future may not lead to conclusions indicative of the actual amount of default when a relevant event will occur 2.1.5. Provision for staff retirement indemnities Liabilities for retirement benefits are calculated using actuarial methods that require management to assess specific parameters such as discount rates, future growth rates of employee wages, the future rate of employees’ retirement and other factors such as the inflation rate. The Group's management estimates in the best possible way these parameters on an annual basis, for the relevant actuarial study. Further details are provided in note 2.1.5. Estimation of assets useful life The Group reassesses at each year end and, when appropriate, prospectively adjusts useful lives of tangible and intangible assets that were recognized either through acquisition or business combination. These estimates take into account new data and current market conditions. Further details are provided in 2.1.5. Contingent liabilities The Group reviews the status of each significant legal case on a periodic basis and assesses the potential risk, based partly on the view of legal department. If the potential loss from any litigation and legal matters is considered probable and the amount can be reliably estimated, the Group recognizes a liability for the
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 154 estimated loss. In order to determine the probability and whether the risk can be estimated reliably, a considerable degree of judgment of management is required. When additional information becomes available, the Group reassess the potential liability related to pending litigation and legal proceedings and estimates for the probability of an unfavorable outcome and an assessment of potential loss may be revised. Such revisions in the estimates of the potential liability could have a material effect on the financial position and income statement of the Group. Further details are provided in note 2.32.A. Provision for impairment of inventories value The Group recognizes inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated selling expenses. Provisions for impairment of inventories are formed when necessary and recognized in the income statement. Further details are provided in 2.1.5. B) Judgements Determination of lease term of contracts with renewal options The Group determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised. The Group has the option, under some of its leases, to lease the assets for additional terms. The Group applies judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the option to renew, considering all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise the renewal. After the commencement date, the Group reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise (or not to exercise) the option to renew (e.g., a change in Group business strategy). Consolidation of subsidiaries in which the Group holds less than a majority of voting right (de facto control) The Group estimates that on 31/12/2024 controls the subsidiary DC09 LLC, even though it holds less than 50% of the voting rights, based on the conditions specified in IFRS 10. Specifically, the Group, based on its existing rights and the fact that has signed agreements with other shareholders, estimates that has the ability to direct the activities that significantly affect the returns of this entity, i.e. the “relevant activities”. Furthermore, holds significant participations/investments, has rights to variable returns from its involvement with this entity and has the ability to affect the level of these returns. The above conditions of IFRS 10 for the entity DC09 LLC, in which the Group holds on 31/12/2024 49% of the voting rights, define the framework on the basis of which this entity is consolidated. Business combination Group when acquiring a company performs the necessary estimates in determining the fair value and the useful life of the acquired tangible and intangible assets. Future events could cause changes in the assumptions used in determining fair value with a corresponding effect on the results and equity of the Group. Further details are provided in 2.1.5.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 155 Going Concern The Management of the Group evaluates the going concern assumption based on the approved business plans that cover a period of five years. Following this, it prepares Expected Cash Flows that cover a period of at least 12 months since the financial statements reporting date. The estimates and assumptions used to prepare the business plans and Expected Cash Flows are based on historical data as well as on various factors that are considered reasonable given the circumstances and are reconsidered taking into account current and expected future market conditions. The preparation of business plans also includes long-term assumptions for important economic factors that involve a significant use of Management judgement. 2.2 INFORMATION PER SEGMENT Intralot Group manages in 40 countries and states an expanded portfolio of contracts and gaming licenses.

2.13 EARNINGS / (LOSSES) PER SHARE The calculation of basic and diluted earnings / (losses) per share is as follows: Basic earnings / (losses) per share (EPS) are calculated by dividing net earnings / (losses) for the period attributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, taking into account the average number of ordinary shares acquired by the Group as treasury shares. Profits/(losses) per share for the comparatives have been adjusted to include the reward element to the existing shareholders which was realized through the pre-emptive right to increase the share capital (note 2.23).

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 175 Intangible assets (except for Goodwill) impairment test Management tests Intangible assets (except for Goodwill) for impairment if events occur or changes in conditions indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable in accordance with accounting practice described in note "Intangible assets". The Group, due to the recent changes in revenue contracts portfolio, did an impairment test on 31/12/2024 for all operating systems that are used to its operating activities. The above intangible assets were classified for impairment testing purposes to the following cash generating units (CGU): “Lottery”, “Sports Betting” and “VLT”. The recoverable value of cash generating units is determined according to the calculation of their value in use. The above calculation is based on after-tax cash flow forecasts from budgets that have been approved by management. The determination was made by applying the Income Approach Relief from Royalty method, in which the value of intangible assets is determined by reference to the value of hypothetical royalty payments, which are saved through ownership of the asset, compared to the licensing (licensing) of the intangible assets by a third party. NBV per CGU

Recoverable amount sensitivity analysis: On 31/12/2024, the Group analyzed the sensitivity of the recoverable amounts in a reasonable and possible change of some of the basic assumptions, such as the change of half (0,25) of a percentage point of royalty rate and the change of the discount rates of half (0,25) percentage point. This sensitivity analysis does not show a situation in which the carrying amount of the Lottery” and “VLT” CGUs exceeds their recoverable amount. Goodwill and Intangible assets with indefinite useful life impairment test The Group did not consider it necessary to perform an impairment test on goodwill as of 31/12/2024, due to the immaterial remaining value (€33 thousand).

The distribution of the balance of these reserves can only occur following the approval of shareholders in a regular meeting and if the applicable taxation is paid.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 190 2.26 STAFF RETIREMENT INDEMNITIES (a) State Insurance Programs: The Group’s contributions to the State insurance funds for the year ended 31 December 2024 that were reported in the year’s expenses amount to 10.430 thousand (2023: €9.660 thousand), whereas the respective contributions of the Company amounted to €3.171 thousand (2023: €2.804 thousand), as stated in note 2.4. (b) Insurance Programs in USA: The US Subsidiaries have a defined contribution plan ("The Intralot USA 401 (k) Plan") under Section 401 (k) of the Internal Revenue Code, which covers virtually all their full-time employees. The program requires matching contributions up to 6% of employees' salaries, and there is a provision for additional contributions that are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Group's subsidiaries in the US incurred expenses related to the above program, which in 2024 amounted to 1.734 thousand (2023: 1.859 thousand) and are included under "Other staff costs" in note 2.4. On retirement, "The Intralot USA 401 (k) Plan" is responsible for paying employees' retirement benefits. Consequently, the Group has no legal or constructive obligation to pay future benefits under this plan. (c) Staff Retirement Indemnities: According to Greek Labor Law, employees are entitled to indemnity on dismissal or retirement, the amount of which varies depending on the years of service, salary level and the way the employee leaves employment (dismissal or retirement). Employees that resign or are dismissed for legally valid reasons are not indemnified. The indemnity payable on retirement is 40% of the amount that would have been payable to the same employee on dismissal on the same day (retirement date). In Greece, based on customary practice these programs are not funded. The Group charges to the income statement the expense attributable to the service provided by employees in the year, with a corresponding increase in the provision for staff retirement indemnities. Any payments made to retiring employees are set against the related provision. Independent actuaries calculated the Company’s and the Group’s liability for retirement indemnities. The movement of the net liability as presented in the financial position, details and the basic assumptions used in the actuarial study as of 31 December 2024 are as follows:

The management estimated that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables approximates their fair value, primarily because of their short-term maturities. Fair value hierarchy The Group classifies fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making these measurements. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1: official quoted prices (unadjusted) in markets with a significant volume of transactions for similar assets or liabilities Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices) Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). The Group and the Company held on 31/12/2024 the following assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

Valuation methods and assumptions The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is the amount at which the asset could be sold or the liability transferred in a current transaction between market participants, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values: Fair value of the quoted shares (classified as "equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income") derives from quoted market closing prices in active markets at the reporting date.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 198 Fair value of the unquoted shares (classified as "equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income") is estimated by reference to the current market value of another item substantially similar or using a DCF model. The valuation through the DCF model requires management to make certain assumptions about the model inputs, including forecast cash flows, the discount rate, credit risk and volatility. The probabilities of the various estimates within the range can be reasonably assessed and are used in management’s estimate of fair value for these unquoted equity investments. Fair value of the quoted bonds is based on price quotations at the reporting date. The fair value of unquoted instruments, loans from banks and other financial liabilities, obligations under leases, as well as other non-current financial liabilities is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities. Description of significant unobservable inputs to valuation: The fair value of unquoted shares (classified as "equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income") except that it is sensitive to a reasonably possible change in the forecast cash flows and the discount rate, is also sensitive to a reasonably possible change in growth rates. The valuation requires management to use unobservable inputs in the model, of which the most significant are disclosed in the tables below. The management regularly assesses a range of reasonably possible alternatives for those significant unobservable inputs and determines their impact on the total fair value. Unquoted shares (classified as "equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income") On 31/12/2024 and 31/12/2023 the Group did not hold any unquoted shares (classified as “Equity instruments valued at fair value through other comprehensive income”).

2.33 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT Description of significant risks and uncertainties The Group's international activities create several financial risks in the Group's operation, due to constant changes in the global financial environment. The Group beyond the traditional risks of liquidity risk and credit risk also faces market risk. The most significant of these risks are currency risk and interest rate risk. The risk management program is a dynamic process that is constantly evolving and adapted according to market conditions and aims to minimize potential negative impact on financial results. The basic risk management policies are set by the Group Management. The risk management policy is implemented by the Treasury Department of the Group which operates under specific guidelines approved by management. Credit risk The Group does not have significant credit risk concentration because of the wide dispersion of its customers and the fact that credit limits are set through signed contracts. The maximum exposure of credit risk amounts to the aggregate values presented in the financial position. In order to minimize the potential credit risk exposure arising from cash and cash equivalents, the Group sets limits regarding the amount of credit exposure to any financial institution. Moreover, in order to secure its transactions
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 221 even more, the Group adopted an internal rating system, regarding credit rating evaluation, using the relevant financial indices. Liquidity risk Prudent liquidity management means maintaining adequate liquidity, funding ability through approved credit limits, and ability to repay liabilities. The Group has established specific policies to manage and monitor its liquidity in order to continuously have sufficient cash and liquid non-core assets that can meet its obligations. In addition, the Group has set up a system of monitoring and constant optimization of its operating and investing costs in the framework of its liquidity management policies.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 222 Market Risk 1) Foreign Exchange risk Fluctuations in exchange rates can have significant effects on the Group’s currency positions. Group transactions are carried out in more than one currency and therefore there is a high exposure in foreign exchange rate fluctuations against the euro, which is the main underlying economic currency. On the other hand, the Group’s activity abroad also helps to create an advantage in foreign exchange risk management, due to the diversification in the currency portfolio. This kind of risk mainly results from commercial transactions in foreign currency as well as investments in foreign entities. For managing this type of risk, the Group uses various strategies, such as foreign currency hedging with receipts of foreign currency dividends by abroad subsidiaries. The Group’s policy regarding the foreign exchange risk concerns not only the parent company but also the Group’s subsidiaries.

2) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group's activities are closely linked to interest rates because of investments and long and short-term borrowings. To manage this risk category, the Group uses financial hedging instruments in order to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk. The Group's policy on managing its exposure to interest rate risk affects not only the parent company but also its subsidiaries for their loans concluded in euros or local currency. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to long-term borrowings of the Group's floating rate. The Group also manages interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of loans with fixed and floating rate borrowings. On 31 December 2024, approximately the 35% of the Group's borrowings are at a fixed rate (31/12/2023:
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 223 56%) with an average life of approximately 2,1 years. As a result, the impact of interest rate fluctuations in operating results and cash flows of the Group's operating activities is small.

3) High leverage risk INTRALOT's ability to secure significant additional financing to fund its operations and expansion depends on the capital market conditions that affect interest rates and the associated costs of new financing. In March 2024, INTRALOT announced that the maturity of the loan signed on July 28, 2022, by its US subsidiary Intralot, Inc. ($230 million) with KeyBank National Association Inc. as the Lead Bank and a Syndicate of Banks in the US, has been extended for an additional year, i.e., until July 2026. The loan agreement signed in 2022 with a consortium of six U.S. financial institutions includes a revolving credit line (Revolver Facility) of $50 million, which is fully available as of December 31, 2024, and can significantly help with managing the Group's liquidity. In the first quarter of 2024, the Group's management completed the issuance of a €130 million bond loan, listed on the Athens Stock Exchange (maturity in February 2029), as well as the drawdown of a syndicated bond loan amounting to €100 million with a consortium of five Greek banks (initial maturity in June 2025), directing the entire amount raised to fully repay the outstanding amount plus interest on the 5,250% bonds maturing in September 2024. Regarding the €100 million Syndicated Loan, following a relevant request, the Company's management obtained approval from the Bank Syndicate to extend its maturity until January 31, 2026. It is noted that the outstanding balance of this loan as of the signing date of the Financial Statements was €90 million, after repayment of €5,0 million on September 30, 2024, and €5,0 million on March 31, 2025. Additionally, management is currently considering a range of strategic options concerning the Group's total bank borrowings and expects to be able to announce further details on this soon. Taking the above into account, combined with the continued improvement in operating profitability, which led to an adjusted leverage ratio of 2,85x as of the reporting date for the 2024 financial year, management believes that the risk of high leverage is at acceptable levels, ensuring the maintenance of healthy financial ratios and supporting the Group's operations.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 224 CAPITAL MANAGEMENT The Group aims through the management of capital to ensure that the Group can operate smoothly in the future, maximize the value of its shareholders, and maintain the appropriate capital structure in terms of costs of capital.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 225 2.34 APPLICATION OF IAS 29 “FINANCIAL REPORTING IN HYPERINFLATIONARY ECONOMIES” The Group operates in Argentina through its two subsidiaries Tecno Accion SA and Tecno Accion Salta SA. Since the third quarter of 2018, the cumulative 3-year inflation index in Argentina has exceeded 100% and the country is now considered as a hyperinflationary economy for accounting purposes under IAS 29. The Group applied, for the first time in the nine months of 2018, IAS 29 and restated to current purchasing power in the financial statements (transactions and non-cash balances) of the above subsidiaries that use ARS as functional currency and present their financial statements at historical cost. The restatement was made using the (IPIM) Internal Index Wholesale Prices and applied pursuant to IAS 29, as if Argentina has always been a hyperinflationary economy. Since the first semester of 2022, the cumulative 3-year inflation index in Turkey has exceeded 100% and the country is now considered as a hyperinflationary economy for accounting purposes under IAS 29. The Group applied, for the first time in the six months of 2022, IAS 29 and restated to current purchasing power in the financial statements (transactions and non-monetary balances) of its subsidiaries BILYONER INTERAKTIF HIZMELTER AS GROUP and INTELTEK INTERNET AS that use TRY as functional currency and present their financial statements at historical cost.

The main factors that drove top line performance are: Increased revenue by €12,0m (or +16,6%) from our Management (B2B/ B2G) contracts fueled by strong growth in Turkey, despite the devaluation of Turkish lira (-11,1%), in part mitigated by lower revenue in Morocco as a result of the contract renewal with smaller contract value. Higher revenue by €8,5m (or +30,1%) from our Licensed Operations (B2C) in Argentina following a 50% devaluation of the currency carried out by the country's new government in December 2023, heavily affecting last year’s results. Current year results posted a 55,2% y-o- y increase in local currency terms. Decreased revenue by €8,2m (or -3,1%) from our Technology and Support Services (B2B/ B2G) contracts mainly attributed to the implementation fees in Taiwan charged during 2023 and partially compensated by organic growth across most of the key regions. Gross Profit The gross profits of the twelve-month period that ended on December 31, 2024, amounted to €141,3 million, compared to the twelve-month period that ended on 31/12/2023 at €145,2 million, marking a decrease of €-3,9 million (-2,7%).

Exchange Differences The positive impact from foreign exchange differences of €+0,8 million compared to the twelve-month period of 2023 is a result of the valuation of cash balances in foreign currencies different from the functional currency of each company, as well as the valuation of trade receivables and loan obligations of various subsidiaries of the Group.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 243 ESRS 2 GENERAL DISCLOSURES About this report [BP-1] Scope against the financial statements INTRALOT Group of companies’ (hereinafter “INTRALOT” or the “Group”) Sustainability Statement has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) framework. The scope of this statement aligns with that of the Group's financial statements, providing stakeholders with a cohesive view of INTRALOT ‘s global operations by integrating both financial and sustainability activities. [BP-1.5 b(i)] Consolidation The data disclosed in the Sustainability Statement are consolidated at the Group level, encompassing the listed parent Group INTRALOT S.A. - Integrated Lottery Systems and Services, as well as its subsidiaries, associates, and joint-ventures 11 (hereinafter “Subsidiaries” or “entities”). This process involves aligning the scope, structure, and content of the Sustainability Statement with ESRS guidelines to ensure thorough and compliant reporting. The current sustainability statement cover all entities within the Group and presents essential environmental, social, and governance (ESG) information to meet the requirements of both regulatory frameworks and stakeholders. Transitioning to an ESRS-aligned sustainability statement will enhance the transparency, relevance, and comparability of INTRALOT Group’s sustainability disclosures, enabling the Group to more effectively demonstrate its ESG commitments and performance on a broader scale. [BP-1 5 a, BP-1 5 b(ii)] INTRALOT’s Sustainability Statement not only covers its internal operations but also extends to the entire value chain, including suppliers, partners, and customers. This comprehensive approach is essential from both the ESRS and ESG perspectives as it ensures that all aspects of the Group's environmental, social, and governance impacts are accounted for and managed. By addressing the entire value chain, INTRALOT can identify and mitigate risks, enhance transparency, and drive improvements across all areas of its business. This alignment with ESRS guidelines ensures thorough and compliant reporting, while also demonstrating INTRALOT's commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices, ultimately strengthening stakeholder trust and supporting long-term value creation. [BP 1 5c, AR 1] Omission of EU-related information INTRALOT is fully committed to transparency in its sustainability reporting and corporate disclosures. In alignment with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and Directive 2013/34/EU, the Group affirms that it will not apply the option to withhold information related to intellectual property, know-how, or innovation outcomes, as specified in ESRS 1 section 7.7. 11 From the metric - related KPIs data submission process, nine entities have been excluded since either no operation exists or no operational control. In addition, there was no available data for S1 & E1-E5 for thirteen entities due to the fact that there are no employees or operations in these entities. Last but not least, the total number of employees in this sustainability statement differs from that in financial statements due to the fact that, during the data collection process for the S1 related metrics, some entities have been excluded since the absence of operations or employees.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 244 Additionally, INTRALOT will not utilize the exemption outlined in articles 19a(3) and 29a(3) of Directive 2013/34/EU concerning impending developments or ongoing negotiations. The Group remains committed to delivering complete and precise information to all stakeholders, upholding accountability, and adhering to the highest standards of corporate governance and transparency. [BP-1 5 d] [BP-1 5 e] Additional information [BP-2] Time horizons INTRALOT structures its sustainability reporting in accordance with the timelines set by the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), incorporating a short-term horizon of up to one year, a mid- term horizon spanning one to five years, and a long-term horizon extending beyond five years. This alignment guarantees consistency with ESRS guidelines and establishes a transparent framework for evaluating and documenting sustainability goals and achievements over various periods. [B2 9 a, b] Value chain metrics INTRALOT is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of accuracy, transparency, and accountability in its sustainability reporting processes. As part of this commitment, the Group has carefully assessed the metrics used for value chain data and has determined that estimations from indirect sources have been appropriately utilized where necessary. By leveraging well-founded estimations alongside direct data sources, INTRALOT ensures a comprehensive and reliable approach to reporting. The Group remains committed to clarity and verifiability, continuously enhancing its methodologies to provide stakeholders with meaningful and insightful sustainability disclosures. Furthermore, INTRALOT has established sustainable procurement policies, implemented effective monitoring mechanisms, and conducts regular audits to uphold its high standards and reinforce trust across its value chain.

All reported data and metrics are subject to minimal measurement uncertainty, ensuring a high level of reliability and accuracy in the Group's sustainability statement. [BP-2 11 a] Changes against last year For the current reporting year, INTRALOT is updating its sustainability report to align with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) requirements. Previously, the sustainability report was structured in accordance with the GRI Standards and the latest edition of the Athens Stock Exchange’s ESG 2022 Disclosure Guide. However, recognizing the need for a more comprehensive and standardized
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 245 reporting framework, INTRALOT is adopting the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) to ensure compliance with applicable European legislation. [BP-2 13 a] INTRALOT also confirms that no material errors were identified in the prior reporting periods. Additionally, no adjustments or corrections have been applied to the current sustainability statement for the prior reporting periods included. As a result, there is no need to address the impracticability of any relevant adjustments or corrections. [BP-2 14 a, b, c] INTRALOT has established a reliable disclosure procedure to safeguard the revised comparative figures, ensuring that the related figures will be accurately reported. Conversely, the Group confirms that there are no revised comparative figures from previous years that need to be restructured for the current reporting year. Finally, the current report includes all subsidiaries of the Group, while until last year the reporting was to INTRALOT S.A., INTRALOT Inc. and INTRALOT AUS. [BP-2 13 b, c] Other EU legislation included This Sustainability Statement includes data from all entities within the INTRALOT Group, offering a thorough overview of the Group’s operations. It provides stakeholders with insights into how INTRALOT addresses significant issues, the measures the Group takes towards Sustainable Development, and Group’s responsible efforts in supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Compliant with the CSRD, this report demonstrates INTRALOT's commitment to transparency, accountability, and adherence to evolving sustainability standards. The reporting period spans from January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024, covering all business activities of INTRALOT and its subsidiaries. [BP-2 15] Incorporation by reference When INTRALOT fully applies other reporting standards or frameworks, this is explicitly stated within the sustainability statement. For instances where only partial application occurs, the group provides detailed references to the specific sections of the standards or frameworks that have been utilised. This approach guarantees transparency and clarity for stakeholders regarding the origins and extent of the disclosed sustainability information. INTRALOT ensures that any information derived from other legislation or widely accepted sustainability reporting standards and frameworks is clearly indicated in the sustainability statement. In cases of partial application, exact references to the relevant sections are provided, preserving the integrity and transparency of the reporting process. Governance The role of the BoD [GOV-1] In accordance with Article 18 of its Articles of Association, the Group is governed by a Board of Directors, comprising between seven (7) and twelve (12) members, whose duties are outlined in both the Law and the Articles of Association.

This governance structure is built on an annual sustainability plan, comprehensive reporting and data management, performance monitoring, stakeholder engagement, and the identification and management of relevant risks and controls. To effectively manage and oversee the Group’s sustainability impacts, risks, and opportunities, INTRALOT has formed a cross-departmental structure, which consists of Units (Departments and Divisions) with a well-defined structure, roles, and responsibilities. This structure functions as an in-house community dedicated to ensuring the Group’s sustainability efforts are aligned with its goals and continuously improved. While this structure ensures the development of sustainability policies and processes across
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 247 the Group’s entities, it has yet to assign targets for the identified material impacts, risks, and opportunities at each level of governance. Specific targets will be established and allocated for monitoring and implementation in the upcoming reporting cycles. At the Supervisory Level, the Board of Directors (BoD) supervises the sustainability strategy, aligning it with the Group’s long-term goals and corporate strategy. They monitor performance, due diligence processes, and provide strategic direction to address key impacts, risks, and opportunities identified through materiality assessments.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 277 Impact, risk and opportunity management Identification of material impacts, risks and opportunities [IRO-1] The materiality assessment process for INTRALOT was initiated before a decade and was further refined and executed in 2023, involving executive management, relevant business units, and key stakeholders, at a Group level. This process was based on the GRI Standards 2021 and provided a comprehensive framework for identifying and evaluating material topics for the operations of INTRALOT S.A. In 2024, INTRALOT continued its commitment to sustainability by implementing a robust Double Materiality Analysis (DMA), which assesses both the impacts of the Group’s operations on the environment, society, and economy (impact materiality), as well as the potential financial risks and opportunities posed by environmental, social, and governance factors (financial materiality). The methodology for assessing material impacts, risks and opportunities has evolved to comply with the requirements of the EU Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). [IRO-1 53 h] Double Materiality Assessment methodology [IRO-1 53 a, b, c] Step 1: Creating the inventory of impacts, risks and opportunities The first phase of the Double Materiality Assessment focused on a benchmarking analysis to build an understanding of the Group’s material topics, both specific to its operations and the broader industry. This process involved a comparative analysis, where INTRALOT examined its operations alongside those of its industry peers, thus evaluating key sustainability themes relevant to the Group and the sector. Additionally, the Group revisited material topics identified in previous assessments, ensuring these remained applicable to the current sustainability landscape. Stakeholder and value chain mapping In this step, INTRALOT conducted an in-depth analysis of its value chain, both upstream and downstream, identifying the key stages where sustainability impacts may occur. Stakeholders across this value chain were mapped out, with particular attention paid to their potential to influence or be affected by the Group’s activities. Identification of Impacts, Risks and Opportunities (IROs) At this stage, the Group undertook a review of its existing sustainability actions and initiatives for each sustainability matter. After mapping out these actions, the Group identified both the actual and potential positive and negative impacts, focusing on its operations, geographical presence, business relationships, and other factors that could lead to increased risks of adverse effects or significant positive outcomes. The Group used relevant policies, internal stakeholder feedback, and other available information from previous years as key input parameters. This analysis not only addressed the immediate consequences of these actions but also considered a broader perspective, recognizing the stakeholders and entities
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 278 affected, both internally and externally. The identification of impacts considered the entire value chain. [IRO-1 53 g] [IRO-1 53 b, b(i), b(ii)] The Group then assessed whether each impact resulted in a risk or opportunity for its financial position and performance. [IRO-1 53 c(i)] To improve identification process of the IROs, the Group, along with the Sustainability Team, involved internal stakeholders from various departments, including senior management, through workshops and interviews. [IRO-1 53 b(iii)] Step 2: Validation of Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities (IROs) Before proceeding to the scoring phase, INTRALOT ensured the proper validation of the wording and categorization of all identified Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities (IROs) to guarantee consistency and alignment with its sustainability strategy and ESRS requirements. The Sustainability Team played a key role in this process, reviewing each IRO for clarity, accuracy, and proper categorization. In cases where further clarification or refinement was needed, internal discussions were held with relevant departments such as Procurement, Risk Management, and Human Resources. This collaborative approach resulted in a validated and refined list of IROs, which provided a solid foundation for the scoring phase. Step 3: Scoring Impacts, Risks, and Opportunities (IROs) After identifying, documenting, and validating the IROs, the next step was to assign scores based on their materiality. INTRALOT applied specific criteria to evaluate both impact and financial materiality, aiming to identify the most significant impacts, risks, and opportunities. The scoring process was led by dedicated data owners, who worked closely with the Sustainability Team and facilitated cross- departmental discussions to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the impacts across the Group. Additionally, during the workshops for scoring the IROs, the impacts, risks, and opportunities were assessed at a Group level, but careful consideration was also given to the subsidiaries. This ensured that the scale and scope of the impacts were thoroughly evaluated. Impact scoring The scoring of impacts was based on the evaluation of three key parameters: Scale, Scope, and Irreversibility (for negative impacts only), as well as Likelihood (for potential impacts only). The scale was assessed by considering both the significance and duration of the impacts, while the scope was determined by identifying the stakeholder groups and geographical areas that could be affected. When the initial scoring was completed, the Sustainability Team conducted a validation review to ensure that the scores accurately reflect the Group’s sustainability impacts on stakeholders and adhere to the ESRS standards.

Likelihood Risks and opportunities scoring To evaluate financial materiality, the Group considered key parameters including Operational & technology effect, Compliance effect, Strategic & Reputational effect, and Likelihood of occurrence. These factors, derived from the Group’s Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework, offered a holistic view of how sustainability-related issues could influence the Group’s financial stability. Each anticipated financial risk or opportunity was also assessed based on the expected time frame in which the financial outcome would manifest. [IRO-1 53 c(ii)] [IRO-1 53 c(iii)] The financial materiality scores were then validated by the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Team and the Finance Department, ensuring that they aligned with the overall risk management approach and business goals. Assessment criteria for risks and opportunities 11. Magnitude Operational & technology effect Compliance effect Strategic & Reputational effect 12. Likelihood Time Horizons 13. Short-term: The Group expects to realize the financial impact within one year after the reporting period. 14. Mid-term: The financial impact is expected to occur within one to five years after the reporting period. 15. Long-term: The financial impact is likely to materialize over a period of five to ten years following the reporting period. Step 4: Setting thresholds In order to assess the materiality of impacts, risks and opportunities, and identify the Group’s material topics, appropriate thresholds were applied to the final values obtained from the assessment of IROs. The double materiality analysis allowed the Group to identify material environmental, social and governance topics that are significant from an impact materiality perspective, a financial materiality perspective or both. [IRO-1 53 b(iv)]
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 280 Step 5: Stakeholder Engagement After the final assessment of the IROs, the shortlisted material topics underwent a comprehensive validation process through conducting an online survey with both internal and external stakeholders. By incorporating stakeholder feedback, the Group enhanced the transparency of the assessment, demonstrating its commitment to stakeholder inclusion and responsible business practices. Step 6: Validation of final results To ensure the robustness and strategic alignment of the identified impacts, risks, and opportunities, a critical validation step was incorporated into the process, involving a thorough review by management, finance and risk departments. Following the consultation with external stakeholders, the results of the Double Materiality Analysis will be presented for final approval by the Board of Directors (BoD). [IRO- 1 53 d] At present, the impacts, risks, and opportunities identified through our double materiality analysis are not fully integrated into our overall Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework. However, the Group is committed to improving this integration and aligning sustainability impacts, risks and opportunities with overall management processes. Additionally, sustainability-related risks are regularly reviewed in collaboration with key departments, such as Sustainability, Finance, and Risk, to ensure that they are prioritized in line with the Group’s long-term strategy and business objectives. [IRO-1 53 f] [IRO-1 53 e] Description of the processes to identify and assess material climate- related impacts, risks, and opportunities [Ε1 IRO-1] INTRALOT’s impacts on climate change is related to its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily from Scope 3 emissions, which are largely driven by its operations and arise from its broader value chain. The Group’s transportation activities and specifical ly, its fleet emissions also represent a significant environmental impact. The Group has implemented measures according to ISO 50001, ISO 14001 and ISO 14064 to monitor and reduce emissions, including switching to renewable energy, replacing all its gasoline-powered vehicles with advanced hybrid models and using energy-efficient technologies. Though progress has been made in reducing Scope 1 & 2 emissions, INTRALOT recognizes the importance of a coordinated transition/ decarbonization plan to align with national and global climate goals. [IRO-1 20 a, AR 9, AR 10] Identification of physical and transition risks INTRALOT has not yet conducted a detailed assessment to identify physical or transition risks related to climate change, and across its value chain. As a result, no specific risks have been formally documented under ESRS. However, the Group recognizes the increasing importance of climate-related risk management and is considering future steps to assess potential exposure to physical and transition risks. Moving forward, it aims to enhance its understanding of climate-related financial impacts and align with best practices in risk identification and scenario analysis.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 281 Financial Compatibility with Climate Scenarios INTRALOT has not yet conducted an analysis to assess its financial compatibility with climate scenarios. As a result, there is no formal evaluation of how various climate-related scenarios could impact its financial performance, investments, or long-term strategy. However, the Group acknowledges the relevance of such an assessment in understanding potential financial risks and opportunities associated with climate change. Future considerations may include integrating scenario analysis into its financial planning and risk management processes to align with evolving regulatory and stakeholder expectations. Description of the processes to identify and assess material resource use and circular economy-related impacts, risks, and opportunities [Ε5 IRO-1] INTRALOT conducted a Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) to screen its assets and activities with the intention of determining and evaluating actual and potential impacts, risks, and opportunities related to resource use and circular economy, across the Group's value chain. Through the DMA process, INTRALOT considered various assumptions, including regulatory compliance and goals for long-term environmental sustainability. INTRALOT implements a comprehensive approach to systematically assess and manage waste-related impacts across its operations and value chain. Through its initiatives, INTRALOT evaluates waste generation, recycling, reuse, disposal processes and the product design. Key factors such as waste type, volume, disposal methods, resource recovery potential, and compliance with national and EU regulations are considered. The implementation of waste registration and monitoring systems helps identify areas where significant quantities of waste are generated and provides opportunities for reduction or recycling and adopting the principles of circular economy in its products. INTRALOT manages all waste that is generated in its facilities through licensed contractors. [IRO-1 11 a, AR 1-7] INTRALOT has consulted with key stakeholders, as part of its commitment to promote sustainable practices, concerning circular economy. By means of an external stakeholder questionnaire, the Group surveyed affected stakeholders for their views on material sustainability topics, such as resource use and circular economy. The questionnaire focused on the Group’s operations and services and the ways they relate to and affect circular economy and more specifically waste reduction and management. Those consultations were designed to ensure that concerns and insights from stakeholders, including communities directly impacted, were considered in the assessment of impacts, risks and opportunities regarding circular economy practices by INTRALOT.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 294 Actions [E1-3] Climate change actions INTRALOT has developed and is implementing an Environmental Management System (EMS) which monitors and records the Group’s environmental footprint, ensuring compliance with environmental laws. Respecting relevant national and European regulations and principles of ISO 14001, INTRALOT identifies, evaluates, and manages the environmental aspects and impacts of its operations. Regarding employee awareness, the Group provides education and awareness programs to encourage energy- conscious behaviour and sets performance indicators. As INTRALOT is committed to mitigating its environmental impact, it has developed a set of actions regarding GHG emission reductions. Central to its efforts to manage the CO2 emissions from transportation, is the plan to gradually replace its gasoline- powered fleet with advanced technology hybrid vehicles, resulting in a substantial reduction in fuel consumption. To monitor its fuel usage from leased vehicles, INTRALOT has launched the use of fuel cards. With this system, fuel consumption can be tracked per vehicle - highlighting inefficiencies and potentials for improvement. In addition to this, INTRALOT is planning to install photovoltaic (PV) panels on its premises to achieve a net-zero electric energy consumption balance, as part of the energy produced will cover the Group’s energy needs. Energy consumption is a significant operational aspect of INTRALOT’s activities. To address this, the Group has established a Building Management System (BMS), as well as energy meters, to monitor, manage, and reduce energy consumption. In addition to this, the Group has installed motion sensors in all 52 restroom areas and subterranean areas. Expanding the Group’s environmental efforts to its services, INTRALOT is working towards more environmentally friendly IT solutions by increasing their use of virtualized environments and cloud solutions for IT and development services. This approach replaces stand-alone and physical servers, resulting in energy savings and reduced CO2 emissions. With regards to the products provided by INTRALOT, it follows certain technical specifications in order to minimize their energy consumption. More specifically, the machines that are designed have the option of going into idle mode (they can turn off the monitors and thus, they have lower power consumption), as well as LED displays are used and the products are characterised by low processors using mobile technology, thus provides them with the possibility to be cooled physically rather than by ventilators. In addition to the above, INTRALOT has launched multiple energy efficiency initiatives, including the replacement of traditional lamps with efficient LED alternatives, which significantly reduces electricity consumption. Besides, the Group has optimized the usage of air-conditioning systems in its premises, thus mitigating the unnecessary use without the presence of employees in the offices. Moreover, INTRALOT remains committed to fulfilling its obligations under Greece’s Climate Law (Law 4936/2022), which requires the establishment of specific targets and compliance with existing legislation. To this end, the Group has adopted the principles of ISO 14064 and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol to measure its CO2 equivalent (CO2e) emissions. INTRALOT continuously tracks and reports emissions derived from its operations. [E1-3 28]

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 300 Emissions methodologies Scope 1 For Scope 1 GHG emissions calculation methodology, INTRALOT used the emission factors from DEFRA 2024. All conversion factors used derived from DEFRA 2024 too. Scope 2 INTRALOT’s Scope 2 GHG emissions are associated with the purchase of electricity used to support its business activities. This includes electricity consumed from the grid for powering offices. In calculating Scope 2 emissions, the Group has applied the country-specific and market-specific emission factors of the power system using a location-based (per each country) and a market-based model. Scope 2 market-based emissions were calculated using a market-based approach, employing the emissions intensity index provided by DAPEEP for 2023. This index considers the average emission intensity of the network, derived from the Residual Energy Mix, as detailed in DAPEEP's 2023 energy mix report. For location-based Scope 2 emissions, the energy production for each country is used, reflecting the national grid’s overall emissions. Scope 3 INTRALOT expanded its emissions reporting to include Scope 3 indirect CO2 emissions, in its effort to improve the total scope of its emissions. In 2024, INTRALOT’s Scope 3 reporting includes the following four categories, based on the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol): Fuel -and energy- related activities/services Waste generated in operation Business travel Employee commuting The Group has decided not to include the rest Scope 3 categories in its analysis due to the lack of relevant data. Although, for future reporting periods, INTRALOT is committed to enhancing data collection processes and expanding the scope of analysis to include further Scope 3 categories, in order to provide a more comprehensive assessment of its full carbon footprint. 3. Fuel-and-energy-related activities: This category includes emissions resulting from transmission and distribution losses for electricity and the indirect losses from the extraction, production and transportation of other fuels and energy sources, purchased and used by INTRALOT in the 2024. The upstream emissions of purchased fuels were calculated by multiplying the respective quantities by the emission factors from DEFRA 2024. In case of electricity, the upstream emission factors by country extracted from the IEA (2023), Life Cycle Upstream Emission Factors database were applied. For Transmission and Distribution losses subcategory, which is related to emissions from the losses of the electricity transmission and distribution network, the emission factors used were based on the International Energy Agency (IEA)(2023), Life Cycle Upstream Emission Factors database, per country. 5. Waste generated in operations: This category includes emissions associated with solid waste disposed of via landfilling and recycling. Τhe actual waste data has been retrieved from internal
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 301 database. Emissions from waste were calculated using activity data multiplied by the appropriate emission factor from DEFRA 2024. 6. Business travel: Group’s business travel includes air travel only. Air travel emissions per person (invoice) have been provided by travel agencies. Secondary EEIO emission factors for the air transport sector have also been used to identify inconsistencies or discrepancies. 7. Employee commuting: For the calculation of GHG emissions in this category, the results of the latest survey (2024) among the Group’s employees were exploited, in order to determine a typical travel profile for the personnel, by also taking into consideration the reduction in mobility because of teleworking which was applied in 2024. Based on the detailed information available through the field regarding the type of vehicle used, its capacity, the distance travelled, as well as the avoided transportation load due to teleworking, a distance-based approach was used for the estimation of Scope 3 emissions in this category. Emissions from all means of transport were calculated using DEFRA 2024 emission factors. The emission estimations are based on activity data from 330 employees, corresponding to the number of survey responses. Physical risk AND Transition risk In accordance with the provisions outlined in the Directive (p. 34/284), INTRALOT has opted to exercise the available exemption for the first year of preparing its sustainability statement by omitting the disclosures prescribed by ESRS E1-9. Furthermore, for the first three years, INTRALOT may comply with ESRS E1-9 through qualitative disclosures only. This approach aligns with the transitional measures provided in the directive, allowing the Group to gradually enhance its reporting framework while developing the necessary data collection and assessment processes.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 302 Disclosures Pursuant to Article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/ 852 “EU Taxonomy Regulation” Introduction to the Regulation (EU) 2020/852 In alignment with the European Union's strategic vision to promote a resilient and sustainable economy consistent with the climate and energy targets for 2030 and the objectives of the European Green Deal, the European Commission established a classification system for sustainable activities through the Regulation (EU) 2020/852 (hereinafter “EU Taxonomy Regulation”). The EU Taxonomy Regulation, which came into force in July 2021, provides a comprehensive framework for determining the environmental sustainability of economic activities. Its purpose is to create a common language for businesses, investors, and policymakers, enhancing clear and effective communication regarding the environmental sustainability of various economic activities. The EU Taxonomy identifies six environmental objectives: Climate change mitigation Climate change adaptation Sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources Pollution prevention and control Transition to a circular economy Protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems The first two objectives, climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation, were established under the Climate Delegated Act and were the only objectives covered by the EU Taxonomy Regulation during its initial two reporting periods. The remaining four objectives were introduced under the Environmental Delegated Act, implemented in June 2023 and are applicable from the current reporting year onwards. The eligibility and alignment of economic activities for each of the aforementioned objectives are determined by the Delegated Acts. An economic activity is considered eligible if it is described within the Delegated Acts. For an activity to be deemed aligned, it must substantially contribute to one or more of the environmental objectives by meeting the defined Technical Screening Criteria (TSC), complying with the Do No Significant Harm (DNSH) principle and avoiding significant harm to any other objectives, as well as meeting the Minimum Social Safeguards (MSS) requirements. While the Regulation continues to evolve, INTRALOT Group (hereinafter “the Group”) has assessed its activities for eligibility and alignment for the 2024 reporting period based on the criteria established by the Taxonomy Regulation, incorporating the current market perception. Application of the Taxonomy Regulation to INTRALOT Group The Group is a global gaming solutions provider and operator, delivering innovative, future-ready solutions to licensed operators worldwide. The Group's business model involves developing, maintaining and operating software services, offering cutting-edge technology, expert consultation and
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 303 comprehensive support across all aspects of daily operations within the lottery, betting and gaming industry. The 2024 EU Taxonomy disclosures incorporate data collected from the following subsidiaries of the Group, entities that will be referred to as “the Group” for the purposes of these disclosures: INTRALOT S.A. INTRALOT Australia PTY Ltd, including INTRALOT Gaming Services Pty Ltd INTRALOT Inc. Tecno Accion Salta S.A. and Tecno Accion S.A. - Argentina INTRALOT Chile SpA INTRALOT International Ltd - Cyprus INTRALOT International Holdings Ltd - Cyprus INTRALOT Iberia Holdings S.A. INTRALOT Germany Gmbh INTRALOT Tech Single Member S.A. - Greece INTRALOT Adriatic d.o.o INTRALOT Finance UK Ltd INTRALOT Nederland B.V. INTRALOT Ireland Ltd INTRALOT Maroc S.A. INTRALOT Global Holdings B.V. INTRALOT Global Securities B.V. INTRALOT Global Operations B.V. INTRALOT Benelux B.V. INTRALOT New Zealand Ltd Inteltek Internet AS Turkey Bilyoner AS Turkey The report presents both eligible and non-eligible activities, as well as aligned and non-aligned for the reporting period ending on 31 December 2024. The Group’s primary potentially eligible activity under the EU Taxonomy Regulation is 8.2. Computer programming, consultancy, and related activities, as described below and can only substantially contribute to Climate Change Adaptation. Description of activity 8.2. Computer programming, consultancy, and related activities The Group provides expertise in information technologies, encompassing software development, modification, testing and support; designing and planning computer systems that integrate hardware, software and communication technologies; managing and operating clients’ computer systems or data processing facilities on-site; and performing various professional and technical computer-related activities. According to the EU Taxonomy Regulation, for an economic activity to contribute to climate change adaptation, it must aim to mitigate the adverse impacts of existing or anticipated climate risks on itself, people, nature, or assets. This contribution should have a direct and measurable impact on adaptation.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 304 The European Commission’s Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on the Disclosures Delegated Act, published in December 2022, provides additional guidance on fulfilling the Climate Change Adaptation objective. The FAQs outline two categories of activities that can meaningfully contribute to this objective. Adapted activities: Economic activities that have become resilient to climate change by adapting to all material climate- related risks. Enabling activities: Activities that enable others to significantly contribute to one of the six environmental objectives outlined in Article 9 of the Taxonomy Regulation by providing adaptation solutions. An activity can only be classified as enabling if this is clearly defined in its description. The Group’s activities fall under the category of "adapted activities." Within the scope of climate change adaptation, Turnover alone cannot be used as an eligible KPI for adapted activities. Instead, Capital Expenditure (CapEx) and Operating Expenditure (OpEx) associated with activity 8.2 are considered relevant, as they directly support the functionality of the activity and contribute to achieving adaptation objectives. The EU Taxonomy, therefore, emphasizes specific activities and investments aimed at addressing climate change challenges. Recognizing the importance of climate change risks, the Group has conducted an assessment to identify the most significant risks. Following the intensive process outlined by the EU Taxonomy Regulation for achieving resilience, the Group has established goals and commitments for the future, demonstrating its dedication to adhering to the guidelines and achieving meaningful adaptation. However, during the 2024 reporting period, the Group was unable to provide evidence of eligibility for CapEx and OpEx related to its primary economic activity. Instead, the focus has been on expenses resulting from other activities that meet the criteria for Taxonomy eligibility. The secondary activities listed below are considered eligible under the EU Taxonomy. Information on assessment of compliance with the Regulation (EU) 2020/852 The Group has identified five eligible activities contributing to Climate Change Mitigation, as derived from the Capital and Operational expenses: 1) 6.5. Transport by motorbikes, passenger cars and commercial vehicles One of the activities that was not aligned with the EU Taxonomy requirements is “Transport by motorbikes, passenger cars, and light commercial vehicles”. The Group was unable to obtain sufficient data from this part of its value chain to demonstrate compliance with the Do No Significant Harm requirements from its European suppliers. Additionally, non-European vehicle manufacturers are currently not required to report under the EU Taxonomy, preventing the Group from claiming any
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 305 alignment percentage for non-European vehicles. Due to these factors, the Group was unable to report alignment for the eligible activity 6.5 during the reporting period. However, the Group remains committed to engaging its suppliers to contribute toward the climate change mitigation environmental objective. 2) 7.3 Installation, maintenance, and repair of energy efficiency equipment Activity 7.3 pertains to individual renovation measures involving the installation, maintenance, or repair of energy efficiency equipment. In 2024, the Group invested in various equipment, including air conditioning systems and specialized kitchen equipment to improve energy efficiency. However, meeting the Technical Screening Criteria (TSC) for this activity was not possible, as the required information depends on third parties. The Group remains committed to collaborating with its suppliers in the coming years to gather the necessary information for the alignment assessment. 3) 7.4 Installation, maintenance, and repair of charging stations for electric vehicles in buildings (and parking spaces attached to buildings) During the reporting period, the Group expanded its network of e-vehicle charging stations across various locations, supporting environmental sustainability. This substantial investment aligns with the criteria for EU Taxonomy purposes under activity 7.4, contributing meaningfully to the environmental objective of climate change mitigation. 4) 7.7. Acquisition and ownership of buildings This activity involves acquiring real estate and exercising ownership over it, significantly contributing to the environmental objective of climate change mitigation. As demonstrated in the tables below, buildings represent a considerable expense for the Group. Once the climate risk and vulnerability assessment exercise are completed, the Group expects to claim a higher alignment ratio. Alignment Assessment A thorough review has revealed that alignment with the EU Taxonomy's Technical Screening Criteria is currently not feasible, as the Group has yet to conduct a climate risk and vulnerability assessment. Additionally, no expenditure plan has been established to implement adaptation solutions addressing the most significant physical climate risks associated with its activities. The Group is committed to substantially improving its alignment ratios in the coming years, starting with the execution of a climate risk and vulnerability assessment.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 306 Avoiding double counting Thanks to the diligent structure of its financial statements and the granular tagging of the CapEx and OpEx accounts, the Group can confidently confirm that double counting was avoided during the EU Taxonomy compliance exercise. Accounting Policy The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared for the financial year ending 31 December 2024 in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The following sections showcase information related to CapEx and OpEx of our subsidiaries which were introduced earlier in this part of the report. For the calculation of the eligibility KPIs we followed the approach as described below: We examined our capital expenditure categories and included in the numerator, only the expenses that are directly linked to the purchase of the output of the eligible activities, as listed above. In the denominator we included the total capital expenses of the Group. We followed a similar approach for the calculation of the numerator of the eligible OpEx KPI as we did for CapEx. Regarding the denominator, we carefully reviewed all OpEx categories of the Group and only included the ones that aligned with the guidelines specified in the Regulation, resulting in the following cost categories: 16. Repair and Maintenance of software, hardware, buildings, furniture and cars 17. Operating leases for corporate vehicles, premises and other machinery 18. Day-to-day servicing of IT spare parts Finally, given the restrictions previously mentioned, there is no eligible turnover for this year’s EU Taxonomy assessment. In the following table, we present a summary of the results of the EU Taxonomy assessment. Eligibility Alignment Turnover 0% 0% CapEx 18,15% 0% OpEx 10,22% 0% For detailed results, please refer to the tables below Eligible OpEx = Operating expenses related to the purchase of the output of eligible activities Operating expenses related to research and development, repair and maintenance, short term leases, building renovation measures and day−to−day servicing of assets of property, plant and equipment Eligible CapEx = Capital expenses related to the purchase of the output of eligible activities Total capital expenses

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 312 RESOURCE USE & CIRCULAR ECONOMY [E5] Impact, risk, and opportunity management Policies related to resource use and circular economy [E5-1]. INTRALOT has not yet established a dedicated Environmental or Waste Management and Circular Economy Policy, although it recognizes the importance of addressing waste management-related risks and circular economy-related opportunities in its operations. In the absence of an autonomous policy, the Group has implemented further environmental initiatives aligned with its sustainability objectives, including ISO 14001 and commitments to reduce its environmental impact. In accordance with ESRS 1 - General Requirements (paragraph 114 on reasons for omission), the Group has not developed yet formal policies related to waste management and recycling, circular economy and resource efficiency, or sustainable sourcing. Nevertheless, the Group currently focuses on broader environmental management practices, and these related to circular economy and resource efficiency are described in the following pages. INTRALOT is actively evaluating its approaches to waste management, recycling and circular economy, and intends to develop a structured policy aligned with the requirements of ESRS E5 in the future. Therefore, INTRALOT do not specifically address transitioning away from the use of virgin resources or the increased use of secondary (recycled) resources. Similarly, there are no dedicated policies in place for the sustainable sourcing and use of renewable resources. [ESRS 2 62] Despite existing non-establishment of formalized policies, INTRALOT and its subsidiaries in European Union, comply with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive and the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive is certificated with ISO 14001:2015 which aims at waste prevention and continuous improvement of environmental performance. Actions and resources related to resource use and circular economy [E5-2]. Although INTRALOT has not developed a formal policy related to waste management and circular economy, it is fully committed to environmental responsibility and diligently adheres to all regulations aligned with the principles of circular economy. Therefore, it takes a proactive approach to waste management as part of its broader environmental management system, with ongoing efforts to minimize waste directed to disposal and maximize recycling. One of INTRALOT’s key strategies for waste reduction is recycling, recognized as the most efficient and effective practice adopted by the Group. This initiative aligns with ongoing environmental advancements and underscores INTRALOT’s commitment to minimizing landfill waste. INTRALOT’s waste collection, recycling, and compression processes reflect the most environmentally sustainable practices available. INTRALOT has strategically outsourced specific tasks to specialized and certified partners, to ensure that
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 313 environmental standards are upheld. INTRALOT maintains a robust recycling program, ensuring the active recovery of materials such as paper, metal, aluminum, packaging, electronic devices and toners. Every terminal produced and exported by INTRALOT complies with the ROHS Directive EC certification, ensuring strict limitations on hazardous substances in electronic devices. Also, INTRALOT raises employee awareness through internal communication means, i.e., email, corporate intranet portal, posters and implements internal awareness campaigns to reduce energy consumption and waste. Across offices, waste collection points are installed to further support separation and align with circular economy principles. When collected, hazardous waste is handled with care by licensed partners in each country that the Group operates, to ensure compliance and minimize environmental risks while solid non-hazardous waste is directed to appropriate facilities (also by licensed partners) to be stored, treated, disposed in landfills or recycled. [E5-2 19] Metrics and targets Targets related to resource use and circular economy [E5-3]. Although INTRALOT has not established specific measurable outcome-oriented targets, it actively monitors the effectiveness of its actions related to resource use and circular economy regarding its operations, services and products. This monitoring is conducted through well-defined processes embedded in INTRALOT's Environmental Management System (EMS), certified under ISO 14001:2015. INTRALOT also, submits the necessary data for its waste generated to the Digital Waste Registry. While no specific targets are set, the Group defines its level of ambition as a commitment to diverting its waste from landfill, minimizing waste and resource consumption, and improving waste management practices in alignment with regulatory standards and stakeholder expectations, showcasing INTRALOT's dedication to reducing its ecological footprint. Progress is measured against data and is evaluated through quantitative indicators such as the amount of waste generated. [ESRS2 81] Resource inflows [E5-4] INTRALOT prioritizes the procurement of environmentally safe products made from recycled raw materials. In alignment with its resource management practices, the Group continuously work to reduce, reuse, and recycle resources for its products. INTRALOT’s ability to increase the reuse and refurbishment of spare parts during the life time of the lottery machines for example, can both lower its use of virgin materials, extend the lifetime of the products, and reduce the Group’s operational costs. By sourcing sustainable plastics and metals, INTRALOT reduces dependence on virgin sources, reinforcing its commitment to the circular economy. In addition to this, it uses recyclable packaging materials: Cartons, pallets, and other packaging materials used for product transportation are reused and made from recyclable materials. Moreover, the Group promotes digital solutions, by replacing traditional paper- based methods with eco-friendly alternatives. Digital solutions tend to encourage customers to abolish the use of thermal paper. [E5-4 30, AR 21]

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 316 SOCIAL OWN WORKFORCE [S1] Strategy Material impacts, risks and opportunities [S1.SBM-3] At INTRALOT, we deeply value our workforce and believe that every experience we create together is essential to our long-term success and sustainability. We are committed to fostering a work environment that prioritizes safety, promotes equal opportunities, and supports continuous learning and development for all employees. By investing in our people, we strive to ensure that each individual’s contribution is meaningful and that our collective efforts drive positive change. The impacts, risks, and opportunities associated with our workforce not only affect our daily operations but also play a key role in shaping our long-term strategy and business model. Our workforce comprises directly employed staff, contractors, and third-party workers supplied by external service providers. We ensure that our workforce is covered by our workplace protection policies and benefit from comparable safety measures. [ESRS 2 SBM-3 13 a, 14] The Group has identified material positive impacts resulting from its initiatives aimed at fostering an inclusive and supportive work environment. Through proactive diversity recruitment and inclusive benefits, the Group promotes equal treatment for all employees, regardless of sex, race, or age. This creates a more diverse and equitable workforce, enhancing employee satisfaction and contributing to a stronger Group culture. These efforts positively impact all employees and are particularly beneficial in attracting diverse talent, improving workforce representation across the organization. By implementing its "Elimination of Violence and Harassment Policy," the Group has fostered a respectful and safe work environment. This initiative benefits all employees by preventing workplace violence and harassment, strengthening our ethical standards. [ESRS 2 SBM-3 14 c] The Group has also identified several material opportunities related to the training and skills development of its employees, health and safety, work-life balance, and overall well-being. Specifically, the Group’s employee evaluation system presents a valuable opportunity for continuous development and performance enhancement. The structured performance appraisal process allows the Group to identify and nurture talent, improving productivity while aligning individual goals with the broader business objectives. Also, by providing competitive compensation and prioritizing employee well-being, we help in building a motivated and content workforce. INTRALOT continuously endeavors to promote a healthy work-environment of which work-life balance is a vital element. As such, the Group promotes working hours according to the relevant legislation, both daily and weekly, in accordance with their employment contract. Also, the Group abides by the standard overtime and additional remuneration for overtime, as described in the regulation. The board has oversight of overtime and oversees approving or disapproving them. The Group adheres to the
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 317 regulation, when it comes to paid and unpaid leaves these may include normal leave, maternity leave, and other reasons of absence. Such absences may also include work from home situations where the employees may work remotely. In addition, the Group demonstrates a strong commitment to health and safety by implementing comprehensive practices, including strict adherence to workplace regulations, conducting thorough occupational risk assessments, and providing insurance coverage. By prioritizing preventing measures and fostering a culture of safety, the Group ensures operational continuity and prevents costly disruptions caused by workplace accidents. [ESRS 2 SBM-3 14 d] The Group has considered the potential risks to different segments of its workforce, especially those who may be more vulnerable based on their characteristics, work contexts, or activities. In line with our operations employees involved in physically demanding tasks may encounter greater risks due to the nature of their work environment. However, due to the specific nature of the sectors in which the Group operates, these sectors generally do not present the same physical risks or challenges as other more labor-intensive industries. Based on the results of our double materiality assessment for this reporting year, we have determined that there are no material risks or material negative impacts associated with the Group's own workforce. Additionally, the Group has implemented policies and practices designed to prevent and address any potential incidents of forced or compulsory labour, and we have not identified any operations, either by type or location, that are at significant risk. However, we remain committed to monitoring and addressing any potential risks or negative impacts that may arise. [ESRS 2 SBM-3 13 b] [ESRS 2 SBM-3 14 b] [SBM-3 14 f] Policies [S1-1] The Group has adopted comprehensive policies to effectively manage its material impacts, risks, and opportunities related to its workforce, ensuring alignment with sustainability objectives. These policies are designed to address the needs of all employees across the organization, with specific provisions for distinct groups within the workforce where applicable. Human rights policy The Group is committed to maintain high standards of ethics and responsibility across all its operations. While INTRALOT does not have a standalone Human Rights Policy, our principles and commitments in this area are embedded in other corporate policies, such as our Code of Conduct and Recruitment and Selection Policy. Thus, the Group commits to be aligned with principles related to respect for human rights, non-discrimination, fair labor practices, and compliance with international regulations. More specifically, INTRALOT has established a firm approach towards safeguarding human rights. By adhering to the needs of the United Nations and the legislation of International Labor Organization (ILO), the Group responds to the need for increased attention towards human rights. Based on the principles imposed by these two organizations, the Group has established its Code of Conduct, as well as its employment guide, to fully integrate safeguarding of human rights within its operations. The standards described in the Code apply to all employees, directors and officers of INTRALOT Group and its
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 318 subsidiaries and controlled affiliates. As also stated in our Code of Conduct, INTRALOT is firmly opposed to child labor and ensures that all its operations adhere to this principle. [S1-1 22] Further, the Long-term International Assignment Policy, the Internal Regulation, and the Recruitment and Selection Policy of INTRALOT guarantee the imposition of human rights core values, which employees follow with strict adherence. Equally important is the fact that the Group has signed the United Nations Global Compact since 2009, which delineates its commitments to refrain from activities that violate human rights, such as discrimination, harassment, and any kind of violence. INTRALOT Australia strictly follows the Australian employment laws and conducts annual training, covering relevant thematic areas, such as equal employment opportunity, sexual harassment, diversity, and inclusion. [S1-1 20] [S1-1 21, AR 12] INTRALOT Group recognizes that human rights have to be safeguarded continuously, and strenuously. However, it is a fact that human rights are located in multiple places within the Group’s operations, and in turn they have to be considered on all occasions. This means that risk management for human rights ought to be integrated in all risk management procedures, and all sources of risk. Remedy for human rights infringements INTRALOT is committed to providing remedy for any human rights violations through well-defined grievance mechanisms. Grievance mechanisms are in place, enabling employees to report instances of harassment, discrimination, or any other violations of their rights. These mechanisms are available at the Group’s headquarters, and ensure that employees have a clear, confidential, and safe process to seek justice. The Group follows a meritocratic approach, meaning that all employees are evaluated based on work-related merit, and no form of retaliation is tolerated. Employees are encouraged to use the grievance mechanism without fear of retribution, knowing that their concerns will be taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. [S1-1 20 c] [S1-1 24 d] For more information regarding our grievance mechanisms please refer to section “Prevention and detection of corruption and bribery [G1-3]” Health & Safety Management system INTRALOT has an established Health and Safety management policy, which has been communicated to all its subsidiaries. Each entity is required to adopt its principles and framework while ensuring alignment and compliance with local regulations. Specifically, INTRALOT S.A. maintains a health and safety management system that is certified with the international standard ISO 45001.

We believe that each person’s inherent traits are sacred, and in no way related to their job- performance.

Additionally, through the Equal Employment policy, we strive to nurture a welcoming and diverse work environment as set by our to provide opportunities for all candidates wishing to pursue a career with our Group.

This policy is designed to create a safe and respectful environment for all employees. By implementing these measures, the Group aims to prevent such incidents from occurring, while ensuring swift action is taken if any issues arise. The Elimination of Violence and Harassment Policy applies to INTRALOT’s headquarters. The policy is designed to comply with Greek Law No. 4808 and the International Labour Organization's Convention No. 190 (ILO C190), aiming to establish a safe and respectful work environment.

Additionally, INTRALOT respects and safeguards the right of employees to participate in working unions.

At the Group level, the Group’s Human Resources Director oversees the engagement strategy and ensures that the results of employee feedback are incorporated into the Group's decision- making processes.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 341 CONSUMERS AND END USERS [S4] Strategy Material impacts, risks and opportunities [S4.SBM-3] Positive impacts INTRALOT's activities create positive impacts across multiple areas, benefiting a diverse range of consumers and end-users. Through its expertise in versatile authentication protocols, the Group ensures secure verification across industries, providing reliability and trust in identification for both customers and businesses. By fully complying with GDPR, ISO standards, WLA Information Security standards, and implementing robust cybersecurity measures, INTRALOT guarantees high-level data protection and privacy. These proactive security measures enhance safety and reliability while protecting consumers from financial fraud and identity theft. The establishment of INTRALOT’s 24/7 Service Desk, in alignment with ISO 20000:2018requirements, significantly improves information-related services for customers. By serving as a central contact point for IT and application support, the Service Desk ensures efficient handling of customer requests, prompt incident resolution, and timely responses to inquiries.

[SBM-3 10 c] Negative impacts According to the Double Materiality Assessment that took place in 2024, no negative impacts were identified regarding the Group’s customers and end-users. [SBM-3 10 b] The Group faces key risks and opportunities stemming from its impact on consumers and end-users. Its expertise in authentication protocols strengthens security and trust, reducing fraud risks and enhancing operational stability. This positions INTRALOT as a leader in secure verification. However, failure to
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 342 implement effective data safety measures could lead to breaches, damaging its reputation and resulting in financial losses due to lawsuits and regulatory penalties. Compliance with GDPR, ISO standards, and WLA Information Security standard enhances INTRALOT’s reputation as a trusted provider while mitigating risks of identity theft and fraud. This ensures operational reliability and reduces costly security incidents. The 24/7 Service Desk, aligned with ISO 20000:2018 improves customer experience by providing efficient IT and application support. This reduces downtime, increases efficiency, and strengthens customer trust, enhancing INTRALOT’s competitive edge. In responsible gaming, INTRALOT integrates protective features and adheres to global principles, reducing legal risks while enhancing its reputation as an ethical provider. These measures support long- term customer retention and revenue growth. However, if perceived as insufficient, responsible gaming initiatives could pose reputational risks and regulatory scrutiny. While the Group promotes responsible gaming, the effectiveness of its safeguards also depends on players and operators. If excessive gaming persists, the Group may still face reputational risks despite its proactive efforts. Overall, INTRALOT’s focus on security, compliance, and responsible gaming presents strong business opportunities, but maintaining trust requires continuous investment in these areas to mitigate financial, regulatory, and reputational risks. [SBM-3 10 d] Risks Some of INTRALOT’s material risks and opportunities relate to specific groups of consumers and end- users rather than all users. In responsible gaming, vulnerable players are particularly at risk of excessive gaming behaviors. INTRALOT’s safeguards, including built-in protective features, responsible gaming programs, and strategic pop-up messages, are designed to mitigate risks for these groups. The opportunity lies in strengthening INTRALOT’s reputation as an ethical gaming provider while reducing legal and regulatory risks. However, if these measures are not perceived as effective, the Group could face reputational concerns, particularly regarding player protection. Regarding security and data protection, consumers who engage in frequent online transactions face higher risks of fraud and identity theft. INTRALOT’s strong cybersecurity framework and compliance with GDPR and ISO standards provide enhanced protection for these users, reducing the likelihood of breaches. This security focus bolsters customer trust and strengthens INTRALOT’s market position. Additionally, INTRALOT’s commitment to social inclusion benefits individuals with disabilities by ensuring accessibility in its gaming equipment. This focus expands its consumer base while promoting equity in gaming experiences. The opportunity here lies in attracting a more diverse audience while reinforcing INTRALOT’s reputation for inclusivity and innovation. [SBM-3 12, AR 8]

These initiatives support player well-being, reduce gambling-related harm, and uphold an ethical gaming environment, benefiting players globally, especially in markets with strong regulatory focus on responsible gaming. [SBM-3 10 c] Types of consumers and end-users The lottery industry generally has a lower impact on excessive gaming behavior compared to other forms of gambling due to its inherent structure. Lotteries are typically designed with infrequent play and relatively low stakes, which reduces the likelihood of players engaging in compulsive or excessive gambling behavior. Moreover, lottery games are often regulated with strict rules around responsible play and player protection. However, our end-users may include vulnerable groups like players with gambling problems, those in financially unstable situations, or players prone to excessive gambling behavior. These players may be at risk of developing problematic or compulsive gambling habits. INTRALOT offers within its product portfolio a wide range of responsible gaming features such as age verification, tools for self-exclusion etc., to enhance player protection. In addition, to address concerns regarding consumers' rights to privacy, data protection, freedom of expression, and non-discrimination, INTRALOT has implemented robust data protection policies in line with privacy regulations such as GDPR in those jurisdictions that regulation applies. INTRALOT is committed to maintaining equality and fairness by avoiding discriminatory practices and promoting freedom of expression in all marketing and customer engagement efforts, ensuring that all users are treated with respect and in compliance with relevant laws.

INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 344 Although INTRALOT has not yet established policies related to its consumers and end-users, the Group is deeply committed to respecting and protecting the rights of its consumers and end-users, with a strong focus on material matters such as data privacy, security, and responsible gaming. INTRALOT prioritizes the safeguarding of sensitive and personal data by implementing robust cybersecurity measures, complying with industry regulations, and adhering to global best practices. INTRALOT has achieved alignment with the WLA Responsible Gaming Standards for associate members. The accreditation showcases INTRALOT’s commitment in promoting responsible gaming in all aspects of our activities including the development, sale and marketing of our products and services. The Group is about to introduce relative policies starting in the next reporting cycles. [ESRS 2 62] Through these initiatives, INTRALOT fosters a secure, ethical, and consumer-focused environment, reinforcing its commitment to human rights and corporate responsibility. [S4-1 16] [S4-1 16 a] Since INTRALOT primarily serves governments and state-licensed operators, the Group actively competes in tenders and bidding processes to generate new customers (i.e: RFIs/RFPs). [S4-1 16 b] [S4-1 17, AR 11] Processes for engaging with consumers and end-users about impacts [S4-2] As mentioned in the previous section, INTRALOT’s current and potential clients refer to B2B/B2G or B2C, which specify their preferred engagement methods through various requests for proposals or requests for information. As a result, INTRALOT tailors its engagement approach, type and frequency to each client rather than following a fixed process. Once a contract is signed, the main communication channels, as well as the contact persons, will be described per case in the scope of each project including emails, online meetings etc. INTRALOT highly values its customers' perspectives, recognizing them as essential in shaping its business practices and ensuring responsible operations. Meaningful engagement with customers is a cornerstone of the group’s approach to identifying, managing, and mitigating actual or potential impacts, actively listening to customer feedback, addressing concerns, and adapting its strategies accordingly. Additionally, INTRALOT ensures transparent communication with its customers and end users through various channels, including social media, its corporate website, publicly accessible grievance mechanism and networking platforms of international exhibitions and conferences. [S4-2 20 a] [S4-2 20 b, AR 16] [S4-2 22] [S4-2 20, AR 17] The Group Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) holds the most senior role with operational responsibility for ensuring engagement with end users. This responsibility is further delegated to subsidiaries’ General Managers or Chief Commercial Officers (CCOs), who oversee engagement at the regional level. These roles ensure that feedback from stakeholders informs INTRALOT’s approach and decision-making processes. [S4-2 20 c, AR 15, AR 16] INTRALOT ensures effective customer engagement through a structured approach within its subsidiaries’ entities. This structure ensures that overseeing cross-functional teams or departments that handle customer interactions, such as customer service, marketing, and product development. They are responsible for implementing strategies to engage customers through various touchpoints. The structure
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 345 also includes processes to capture, analyze, and report customer insights and feedback, which are then used to inform the Group's approach. This data is shared with relevant departments to improve products, services, and customer experiences. Senior representatives ensure that the results of customer engagement directly influence decision-making, helping to align the Group’s strategies with customer needs and expectations. This feedback-driven model is a key assessment tool of the effectiveness of consumers’ engagement which contributes to the Group’s responsive and customer-centric approach. Processes to remediate negative impacts and channels for consumers and end-users to raise concerns [S4-3] INRALOT has not identified any material negative impacts in 2024. [S4-3 25 a, AR 18] Once a contract is signed, the primary communication channels for each project are defined on a case- by-case basis, including emails, Teams meetings, and other agreed-upon methods. In some cases, if specified in the initial project scope, the ICMA process is used as a standard communication channel for managing Change Requests (CRs) with certain customers. Additionally, during INTRALOT’s DMA process, as part of the shareholder engagement procedure, the Group engages with its B2B customers through surveys, gathering their input on identified impacts, risks, and opportunities. [S4-3 25 b, AR 19] [S4-3 25 c] [S4-3 27] As mentioned in a previous chapter, INTRALOT does not have currently in place any officially approved Policy regarding Consumers and end-user, Marketing or Commercial. The Group is committed to establish relevant policies and monitoring mechanisms for the effectiveness of its policies or activities in the next reporting cycles. The upcoming policies, set to be published in 2025, will outline how it is determined whether consumers and end-users are aware of and have confidence in the structures or processes available for raising their concerns and having them addressed. [S4-3 26, AR 23] [S4-3 26] Actions [S4-4] INTRALOT has implemented a structured approach to safeguard consumer trust, data security, responsible gaming, and social inclusion by investing in technology, compliance, customer support, training, and accessibility initiatives. The Group’s key actions and allocated resources include: Secure Authentication Protocols: INTRALOT specializes in versatile authentication solutions across industries, ensuring secure verification for customers and businesses. These measures guarantee complete security against unauthorized access or breaches, reinforcing reliability and trust. To support these efforts, technology investments are made in advanced cybersecurity infrastructure and authentication mechanisms. Data Protection & Privacy Compliance: Through comprehensive compliance with GDPR, ISO standards, and WLA Information Security standard, INTRALOT enforces robust cybersecurity measures. These proactive actions protect consumers from financial and identity theft while ensuring a high level of data privacy. The Group dedicates resources to continuous compliance efforts, staff training, and cutting-edge data security technologies to maintain high standards. 24/7 Customer Support & Incident Resolution: The Service Desk, aligned with ISO 20000:2018regulations, serves as a central point of contact for IT and application support. Available 24/7, it ensures efficient customer request handling, rapid incident resolution, and timely responses to inquiries, enhancing the overall user experience. To maintain this service,
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 346 INTRALOT allocates resources to round-the-clock operations, skilled IT support teams, and advanced customer service tools. Mitigating Data Breach Risks in the Gaming Industry: INTRALOT acknowledges that failure to implement effective data security measures can lead to unauthorized access and data breaches, potentially compromising customers’ personal security, financial well-being, and trust in the Group. To address this, significant investments are made in data encryption, secure platform development, and real-time monitoring systems to prevent breaches and ensure compliance with security protocols. Responsible Gaming Initiatives: INTRALOT integrates player protection features into its products, adheres to global Responsible Gaming principles, and provides specialized training for employees and users. The Group also utilizes strategic pop-up messages to encourage responsible behavior and safeguard players' mental and financial health. Resources are allocated to training programs, awareness campaigns, and continuous monitoring of gaming behaviors to ensure responsible engagement. Balancing Responsibility in Gaming Safety: Although INTRALOT provides secure gaming platforms and technology, players must take personal responsibility for their gaming habits. While safety measures aim to prevent excessive gaming, the Group acknowledges an indirect link to gambling addiction and remains committed to ensuring a safe gaming environment. To strengthen its commitment, INTRALOT invests in research, responsible gaming initiatives, and collaborative efforts with industry regulators to refine and improve safety measures. Promoting Social Inclusion in Gaming: INTRALOT supports product accessibility for individuals with disabilities by developing inclusive customer facing product solutions such as Vending Machines and Self-Service Terminals with adaptive features. These efforts foster social equity and inclusiveness, ensuring that all players can participate on equal terms. The Group dedicates resources to accessibility enhancements, user-friendly interface design, and ongoing testing to improve inclusivity in its gaming platforms. These actions and investments reflect INTRALOT’s commitment to consumer protection, ethical gaming, and digital security, ensuring trust, safety, and inclusion in its gaming solutions. [S4-4 30] [S4-4 33 b] INTRALOT actively engages with its stakeholders through a variety of communication channels, ensuring open and ongoing dialogue. To further enhance its customer relationships and assess the effectiveness of its interactions, the Group is currently exploring the development of a comprehensive customer survey. This survey will be designed to gather valuable feedback from customers, enabling INTRALOT to better understand their experiences, identify areas for improvement, and refine its approach to customer engagement. [S4-4 31 c, AR 36] [S4-4 31 d, AR 30, AR 31, AR 32] Human rights incidents [S4-4] There were no human rights incidents regarding consumers and end-users recorded for INTRALOT in 2024. [S4-4 35] Mitigation Actions [S4-4] INTRALOT has not identified any material negative impacts in 2024. However, INTRALOT mitigates excessive play risks by promoting responsible gaming through targeted messages. By embedding responsible gaming features into its platforms and prioritizing product safety, INTRALOT helps operators enforce safer gaming while encouraging players to manage their habits. While responsibility is shared with players
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 347 and operators, these measures reduce risks and support a safer gaming environment. [S4-4 31 a, AR 35] [S4-4 31 b] Customer engagement is essential for identifying and addressing INTRALOT’s potential negative impacts. By leveraging client feedback and various communication channels, the Group can proactively respond to concerns and develop effective solutions to mitigate any adverse impacts. The Communications, Commercial and Delivery Departments play a key role in this process by collecting negative feedback and coordinating with the relevant departments to ensure that appropriate actions are taken, reinforcing INTRALOT’s commitment to continuous improvement and customer satisfaction. [S4-4 32 a, AR 26] [S4-4 32 c] INTRALOT proactively mitigates risks related to responsible gaming by implementing strict safety measures designed to protect consumers and end-users from excessive gaming. To address potential reputational risks arising from its impact on players, the Group has established the following key actions: Enhancing Responsible Gaming Features: INTRALOT continuously improves its self- exclusion options and budget-setting tools, ensuring players have effective ways to control their gaming behavior. Strengthening Player Protection Mechanisms: The Group invests in secure platforms that monitor gaming activity and provide early intervention for at-risk players. Compliance with Industry Standards and Regulations: INTRALOT aligns its responsible gaming policies with global best practices and regulatory requirements, reducing the likelihood of regulatory scrutiny and reputational harm. Stakeholder Engagement: The Group collaborates with industry regulators, consumer protection organizations, and responsible gaming advocacy groups to refine and enhance its approach to player safety. [S4-4 34, AR 29] Currently, INTRALOT does not have a formal tracking system in place to assess the effectiveness of actions planned to mitigate material risks arising from its impacts and dependencies on consumers and end-users. However, the Group recognizes the importance of such a framework and is actively exploring ways to implement effective tracking mechanisms in the future. [S4-4 33 a, AR 37, AR 38, AR 40] The resources required for managing INTRALOT’s material impacts related to consumers and end-users are minimal and do not represent a significant portion of the Group’s overall operations. As a result, these resources are not separately recorded or tracked. [S4-4 37] Metrics and targets Targets [S4-5] INTRALOT has not yet defined specific targets for managing its material impacts, risks, and opportunities. However, the Group is committed to establishing clear KPIs and monitoring mechanisms to assess the effectiveness of its policies and activities. This process is set to be implemented in the coming years, with concrete steps planned for future reporting cycles. [ESRS 2 81]
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 348 GOVERNANCE BUSINESS CONDUCT [G1] Governance The role of the administrative, supervisory and management bodies [GOV-1] The Board of Directors (BoD) and the established committees at INTRALOT oversee the processes involved in maintaining and upholding the Group’s business conduct practices. INTRALOT is currently in the process of establishing methods for tracking the progress of its governance policies and actions. The BoD is tasked with making strategic decisions, managing corporate affairs, and guiding the Group's long-term strategy. They ensure that relationships with stakeholders are managed effectively and considered in decision-making processes, which is essential for maintaining responsible business conduct. The BoD approves and reviews regulations and policies that govern responsible operations, setting standards for ethical behaviour and ensuring these standards are upheld throughout the organisation. The members of the Board, while having the authority to approve policies and procedures related to organisational and operational matters, work within the framework established by the committees to maintain a high standard of business conduct. The collective of committees ensures that ethical standards are upheld, risks are managed effectively, and the Group’s operations align with its strategic objectives and values. The Suitability Policy for BoD members ensures that individuals are selected based on their knowledge, skills, experience, independent judgement, and availability. This policy also ensures that the collective expertise of the BoD covers key areas such as technology, strategic management, financial reporting, auditing, and risk management. The diversity in expertise is essential for addressing complex business conduct matters and ensuring that the Group's operations align with its values and strategic objectives. [GOV-1 5 a] [GOV-1 5 b] Corporate culture and Business conduct policies [G1-1] Corporate Governance Code The Corporate Governance Code is a set of principles introducing self-regulation provisions, sometimes exceeding the mandatory provisions of the law. It is based on the voluntary acceptance and implementation of rules recorded as specific practices, which govern the administration, monitoring, and control of corporate functions, as well as relationships with shareholders and stakeholders (e.g., suppliers, customers, public administration). Additionally, it facilitates the achievement of goals and the management of emergent risks.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 349 Through the principles of the Code, the aim is to facilitate the application of the above principles, enhance the credibility of the Greek capital market, and improve the competitiveness of Greek businesses, aiming to increase transparency. A comprehensive corporate governance framework contributes to the mitigation of risks of non-compliance and potential fines, enhances brand reputation, and improves stakeholder trust. This proactive approach can lead to operational efficiencies, attract socially conscious investors to building trust in the business environment and can bridge the interests of businesses, citizens, and society in an effective and beneficial way. The Code of Corporate Governance is available on the Group's corporate website. Whistleblowing policy INTRALOT mandates that all employees and representatives maintain honesty and integrity in their duties, adhere to internal policies, and comply with all relevant laws and regulations. To support this, INTRALOT has established a Whistleblowing Management Policy. This policy encourages members of the Board of Directors, management, employees, customers, suppliers, and partners to report criminal activities, suspected illegal conduct, and significant irregularities or violations of Group policies and procedures. The Whistleblower Policy aims to foster an environment where individuals feel safe to raise concerns regarding suspected illegal or unethical conduct or practices or violations of INTRALOT’s policies on a confidential and, if desired, anonymous basis. It also seeks to protect individuals from retaliation for raising such concerns, ensuring that they can report issues without fear of retribution. Furthermore, the policy establishes clear procedures for INTRALOT to receive, investigate, and address reported concerns, and to correct inappropriate conduct and actions. To ensure that employees are well-informed about whistleblowing and ethical business conduct, INTRALOT provides structured training and continuous communication. New hires undergo classroom training on the Whistleblower Policy during their induction, while all staff members have access to e- learning modules that cover anti-corruption policies. Additionally, INTRALOT maintains ongoing awareness and compliance through regular email updates, newsletters, and policy communications, reinforcing the importance of whistleblower protections and reporting mechanisms. Through its Whistleblowing Policy, INTRALOT promotes a culture of transparency and accountability. By safeguarding employees who report unethical or illegal activities, the Group enhances operational efficiency by addressing potential issues early and reducing risks. Reputationally, INTRALOT strengthens its image as a responsible and ethical organization, fostering greater trust with stakeholders, investors, and customers. Legally, it mitigates the risk of lawsuits or penalties related to non-compliance with regulations concerning corporate governance and ethical conduct. [G1-1 10 a] [G1-1 10 c] Anti-Corruption Regulation The Group has adopted an Anti-corruption Policy, implementing a Regulation that clearly defines the commitments and prohibitions for its employees. Although this framework has not yet been actively communicated to the partner network, it remains available on the corporate website and covers every activity of the employees. These procedures are detailed in the Group Anti-Corruption Policy.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 350 To ensure swift action, the Group requires third parties to promptly certify their ongoing compliance with relevant laws whenever requested. Additionally, third parties must immediately report any pending or ongoing investigations related to bribery or corruption. This immediate reporting mechanism allows the Group to address potential issues without delay. Independence in the investigation process is maintained through the formalisation of all third-party relationships involving government officials via written contracts. These contracts include clauses that ensure adherence to anti-corruption laws. The Legal Department plays a crucial role in drafting and reviewing these agreements, providing independent oversight and helping to avoid conflicts of interest. Objectivity is further supported by the Group's right to audit the books and records of third parties to ensure compliance with the terms of the agreement. This auditing process is conducted independently, focusing on the evidence provided by third parties. The requirement for detailed accounting of all payments made by third parties or their agents on behalf of the Group ensures transparency and supports an objective investigation. Third parties are also required to cooperate fully with the Group by providing any necessary information to assure their integrity and reputation. This includes disclosing any background, history, or reputation that may be deemed unsuitable under industry standards. Such transparency ensures accountability and supports an objective investigation process. If a regulatory agency informs the Group that its business with a third party jeopardises its licensing or ability to participate in tenders or contracts, the agreement will be terminated unless a remedy is implemented within thirty calendar days. This clause ensures that corrective actions are taken promptly to address any identified issues. [G1-1 7] [G1-1 10 e] New Employee Training on Business Ethics INTRALOT is committed to designing, implementing, evaluating, and continuously improving its employee training programs in collaboration with the People Development Department and the Responsible Gaming Committee. The training program for employees at INTRALOT focuses on Responsible Gaming practices and aims to ensure that they maintain the highest possible standards. As part of their induction, new employees undergo a comprehensive course on Responsible Gaming to understand its principles, policies, and practices. This initial training is crucial for embedding the core values of honesty and integrity from the outset. To enhance general employee awareness, INTRALOT provides all employees with a Responsible Gaming Quick Reference Card, informative emails highlighting the importance of Responsible Gaming, access to relevant materials including a leaflet on the corporate intranet, and a detailed e-learning course on Responsible Gaming. Additionally, role-specific training is conducted annually for employees in key departments such as Customer Experience and Human Resources. This specialized training ensures that these employees remain well-informed and understand the significance of Responsible Gaming in their specific roles.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 351 The training programs developed through this partnership focus on raising awareness, dispelling myths, and familiarizing employees with Responsible Gaming practices. To ensure the effectiveness of the training, INTRALOT also includes assessments to test employees' knowledge and understanding of the material covered. [G1-1 9, AR 1] [G1-1 10 g] Corporate Mechanisms at Risk While compliance with the Anti-Corruption Policy is mandatory for all employees, certain roles within INTRALOT are particularly vulnerable to risks associated with corruption and bribery. Board members, senior management, and employees operating in high-risk countries are especially susceptible, especially when they engage with government officials. These individuals are crucial in maintaining the integrity and ethical standards of the Group, as their positions often expose them to corruption pressures. Management of relationships with suppliers [G1-2] INTRALOT is dedicated to fostering responsible procurement by implementing thorough policies and procedures to evaluate and oversee its suppliers. The Group diligently identifies potential risks and areas for improvement within its supply chain, working closely with suppliers to adopt best practices and sustainability initiatives. INTRALOT also motivates its suppliers to integrate responsible procurement practices into their own operations. To further its commitment to sustainability, INTRALOT sources environmentally friendly products and services, such as renewable energy, sustainable packaging, and energy-efficient equipment, thereby reducing the environmental footprint of its supply chain. The Group adheres to the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive 2002/95/EC for all terminals and requires European suppliers to comply with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive 2002/96/EC. [G1-2 15 a, AR 2, AR 3] Supplier Selection INTRALOT employs standardized procedures for supplier collaborations and purchasing processes across its entire product chain. These procedures include a detailed procurement policy that outlines step-by- step procedures, supplier requirements, and necessary documentation to ensure fairness and compliance. Audits of procurement processes verify that the Group selects the most qualified vendors and service providers. Additionally, a non-discrimination policy during the procurement process ensures that supplier selection is based solely on financial and technical evaluation, irrespective of race, color, gender, sexual orientation, religion, disability, age, ancestry, or national or ethnic origin, in line with INTRALOT’s Procurement Policy. By following these procedures, INTRALOT ensures that its procurement practices are transparent, responsible, and compliant with relevant laws and regulations. In addition, by including local suppliers in the bidding process alongside international ones, the Group aims to support the local economy and promote domestic business growth, encouraging economic sustainability. Procurement Policy INTRALOT's current Procurement Policy does not incorporate specific ESG criteria for supplier evaluation, though the Group recognizes the importance of integrating such measures. While general assessments of key social and financial factors are performed, there is no dedicated focus on ESG performance. This
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 352 gap could impede progress towards environmental sustainability and social justice. Efforts are currently underway to incorporate ESG criteria into the Policy. Supplier Performance Monitoring To maintain the quality of its products and services, INTRALOT regularly monitors the performance of its suppliers. This monitoring process includes financial and technical quality control assessments for each order. Subcontractor evaluations are based on specific criteria such as financial stability, technical capabilities, quality of deliverables, infrastructure deployment, system performance, and incident records from the Global Service Desk. Through these regular evaluations, INTRALOT ensures that its suppliers and subcontractors meet the Group’s quality and performance standards, thereby delivering high-quality products and services to its customers. This approach reinforces INTRALOT’s commitment to responsible and sustainable procurement practices and helps maintain the integrity and reputation of its supply chain. Additionally, INTRALOT conducts due diligence on suppliers’ financial data. The identification of suppliers with actual or potential negative environmental, labour practices, human rights, or social impacts is incorporated into our supplier Know Your Customer (KYC) process. This integration ensures that we evaluate and address these risks within our standard supplier assessment procedures. [G1-2 15 b, AR 2, AR 3] Payments to Suppliers At INTRALOT, payments to suppliers are based on specific commercial terms agreed upon in each contract or transaction, ensuring compliance with financial procedures and the sustainability of the supply chain. This approach allows for greater flexibility in managing cash flows and maintaining efficient collaborations, responding to the industry's requirements and the particular conditions of each supplier. The Group guarantees prompt payments to all suppliers, upholding a fair and transparent payment system. Although there is no formal prioritization, INTRALOT informally supports small and medium- sized enterprises (SMEs) by expediting payments upon request, recognizing their unique cash flow needs. This strategy mitigates the risk of supply chain interruptions, bolsters local economic systems, and fosters trust and long-term relationships with suppliers. Although there is no explicit policy in place to prevent late payments, by maintaining consistent payment practices and offering flexibility to SMEs, INTRALOT enhances trust and collaboration, contributing to a robust and reliable supply chain. Supporting smaller suppliers in this manner also enhances the Group’s reputation as a fair and ethical business partner. [G1-2 14, AR 2, AR 3] Prevention and detection of corruption and bribery [G1-3] INTRALOT's Anti-Corruption Regulation imposes strict restrictions on bribery and unfair practices. Anyone involved in acts of corruption is immediately removed from the Group, regardless of any criminal liabilities. INTRALOT is committed to thoroughly investigating all breaches of its Anti-Corruption Policy. Employees, officers, or directors who have concerns about possible bribery or corruption can report them to the Human Resources Department and the Internal Audit Unit, in line with the INTRALOT Group Code of Conduct. Reports can be made anonymously or with identification, and confidentiality is maintained in all cases. [G1-3 18 a, AR 5, AR 6]
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 353 In addition, INTRALOT has established and implements a Complaint Submission and Investigation Procedure, which is available on the corporate website in both Greek and English. Employees can report actual or potential incidents of corruption via a letter, a dedicated email address, or an online whistleblowing tool. These reports are sent to INTRALOT Group’s Chief Legal & Regulatory Compliance Counsel, Mr. Dimitris Kremmidas. The Whistleblowing Policy ensures the protection of employees who submit reports, preventing any retaliatory actions against them. Any such action is considered a violation of the Group's Code of Conduct and the Code of Corporate Governance. [G1-3 18 b] [G1-3 18 c] (referenced in [G1-1 10 a, G1-1 10 c, G1-1 10 e]) Anti-Corruption and Bribery Policy INTRALOT places a high value on honesty and integrity in all its operations, business dealings, and management practices. The Group is firmly committed to preventing and addressing corruption, ensuring full compliance with anti-corruption legislation. INTRALOT's esteemed reputation is built not only on its products but also on these core values, which have led to the establishment of a robust Anti- Corruption and Bribery Policy. This policy, which applies to all employees, outlines the Group's position on corruption, business transactions, procurement processes, gifts, and political donations. Employees are encouraged to report any suspicions of bribery or corrupt activities. INTRALOT is notably one of the few gaming companies certified with ISO 37001 for its Anti-Bribery Management System, which enhances transparency and combats bribery. The Group also ensures that its suppliers adhere to anti- corruption principles through comprehensive risk assessments before any business engagement. The policy is accessible to employees via the Group intranet, with no reported incidents to date. While INTRALOT does not currently offer specific training programs for the prevention and detection of corruption, the policy is emphasized during employee induction. By proactively addressing corruption risks, the Group strengthens its governance framework, enhances its reputation, and aligns with sustainable development principles. The implementation of anti-corruption and anti-bribery mechanisms significantly mitigates financial and reputational risks. The absence of recorded incidents further bolsters INTRALOT's image as a transparent and trustworthy entity. Although expanding training programs may involve additional costs, these are likely to be outweighed by the long-term benefits of maintaining high ethical standards. [G1-3 20] [G1-3 21 a] [G1-3 21 c] Anti-Money Laundering Guidelines INTRALOT has put in place detailed guidelines to protect its global operations from being misused for money laundering. These guidelines aim to minimize the risk of the Group's products being involved in illegal financial activities, and adherence to these guidelines is mandatory for all employees. To detect and prevent potential money laundering, INTRALOT uses stringent measures such as Know Your Customer (KYC) protocols, comprehensive due diligence, and ongoing monitoring of gambling activities. By operating with transparency and ethical standards, the Group actively shields its global operations from illicit financial misuse. This dedication not only upholds INTRALOT's integrity but also ensures that its services comply with the highest standards, thereby protecting its reputation and building trust with stakeholders.
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 354 INTRALOT provides comprehensive Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption training to help employees recognise and mitigate risks associated with unethical practices. All new hires must complete an interactive Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption eCourse available on the Corporate eLearning Platform. This training covers key concepts such as defining bribery and corruption, understanding the implications of accepting gifts, and identifying high-risk scenarios. Employees validate their understanding through a quiz and receive a certificate and digital badge upon successful completion. Specialised compliance training is offered to employees in high-risk roles, such as procurement, finance, and sales, covering due diligence processes, third-party risk management, and procedures for escalating suspected violations. Senior executives and key decision-makers also participate in refresher trainings and courses on regulatory compliance. The percentage of functions-at-risk covered by training programmes has not been calculated. By embedding anti-corruption principles into its corporate culture, INTRALOT reinforces its commitment to integrity, protects its operations from legal and reputational risks, and strengthens trust with stakeholders, investors, and regulatory bodies. Implementing these measures greatly reduces the risk of non-compliance with anti-money laundering laws, thereby avoiding potential fines and legal costs associated with regulatory violations. This approach secures financial stability and showcases the Group's strong commitment to ethical practices. Additionally, it can attract investors and stakeholders who value governance and compliance. [G1-3 20] [G1-3 21 a] [G1-3 21 b] [G1-3 21 c] Metrics, targets, and actions INTRALOT is committed to tracking the effectiveness of its policies and actions related to sustainability, even though it has not yet set measurable targets for managing its material sustainability impacts, risks, and opportunities. The Group employs various processes to monitor progress, including qualitative and quantitative indicators that assess the level of ambition and measure progress from a defined base period. INTRALOT is currently evaluating the necessity and feasibility of establishing specific targets and aims to define a timeframe for their implementation. [ESRS 2 81] Confirmed incidents of corruption or bribery [G1-4] During the reporting year, no confirmed incidents of corruption or bribery occurred. [G1-4 24 b, AR 8] Political influence and lobbying activities [G1-5] The lottery and gaming industries are highly regulated to ensure public interest prevails. Governments and regulatory bodies oversee legality, player protection, fair competition, public safety, and financial compliance, while ensuring gaming tax revenues support government programs and good causes. Lotteries provide vital funding for education, community services, and sports. INTRALOT supports regulatory efforts to combat illegal gaming and enhance player protection; therefore, it partners only with regulated markets. Leveraging its global expertise and innovative solutions, INTRALOT promotes responsible gaming and sustainable industry growth, maintaining a
INTRALOT Group ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 355 strong compliance program to meet gaming regulations and general legal requirements per jurisdiction, supported by internal and external controls. As the Group partners with regulated gaming entities, INTRALOT collaborates with government relations consultants and public policy associations to support its lottery and gaming operations. INTRALOT ensures full regulatory compliance with contributions to political engagement, trade associations (such as WLA, NASPL, EL, APLA) and Chambers of Commerce. Specifically in 2024, INTRALOT provided permissible political contributions in USA and membership dues to support industry-related initiatives that totaled €570.000. INTRALOT Group companies have not appointed during the same financial year any members of their administrative, management and supervisory bodies who held a position in public administration (including regulators). Although INTRALOT upholds strong principles regarding political influence and lobbying activities, along with formalized Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption policies, the Group does not currently have a dedicated policy in place. This policy will be published in next reporting cycles.

Recognising the importance of SMEs in the economic landscape, INTRALOT maintains timely payments to support their financial stability and growth. This practice helps to build reliable and efficient supply chains, fostering mutual trust and cooperation between INTRALOT and its suppliers.

363 Limited Assurance Report To the Shareholders of INTRALOT S.A. We have performed a limited assurance engagement regarding the Sustainability Statement of INTRALOT S.A. (hereinafter referred to as the "Group") which is included in section C Sustainability Statement of the consolidated Management Report (the "Sustainability Statement"), for the period from 1/1/2024 to 31/12/2024. Limited Assurance Conclusion Based on our procedures, as described below in the paragraph "Scope of Work Performed", as well as the evidence obtained, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that: The Sustainability Statement has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with Article 154 of Law 4548/2018 as amended and in force by Law 5164/2024 which incorporated Article 29(a) of EU Directive 2013/34 into Greek legislation. The Sustainability Statement does not comply with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (hereinafter "ESRS"), in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/2772 of the Commission of 31 July 2023 and Directive (EU) 2022/2464 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022. The process followed by the Company for identifying and assessing significant risks and opportunities (the "Process"), as outlined in the section Impact, risk, and opportunity management of the Sustainability Statement, does not comply with the "Requirement IRO-1- Description of the processes to identify and assess material impacts, risks, and opportunities" of ESRS 2 "General Disclosures". The disclosures in the section EU Taxonomy Report of the Sustainability Statement do not comply with Article 8 of Regulation EU 2020/852. This assurance report does not extend to information for previous periods. Basis for Conclusion The limited assurance work was conducted in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000 (Revised), "Assurance Engagements Other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information" (hereinafter "ISAE 3000"). In the context of a limited assurance engagement, the procedures performed differ in nature and timing from and are less in extent than for a reasonable assurance engagement. Consequently, the level of assurance obtained in a limited assurance engagement is substantially lower than the assurance that would have been obtained had we performed a reasonable assurance engagement. Our responsibilities are further described in the section "Auditor's Responsibilities". Professional Ethics and Quality Management We are independent of the Company throughout the duration of this engagement and have complied with the requirements of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code), the ethical and independence requirements of Law 4449/2017 and EU Regulation 537/2014. The firm applies the International Standard on Quality Management 1 (ISQM1) "Quality Management for firms that perform audits or reviews of financial statements, or other assurance or related services engagements" and consequently maintains a comprehensive quality management system that includes documented policies and procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards, and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion.
364 Responsibilities of Management for the Sustainability Statement Management is responsible for designing and implementing an appropriate process for identifying the required information included in the Sustainability Statement in accordance with the ESRS, as well as for disclosing the Process in the Impact, risk and opportunity management section of the Sustainability Statement. Specifically, this responsibility includes: Understanding the context in which the Company's and the Group's activities and business relationships take place, as well as understanding the affected stakeholders. Identifying the actual and potential impacts (both negative and positive) related to sustainability issues, as well as the risks and opportunities that affect or are reasonably expected to affect the financial position, financial performance, cash flows, access to financing, or cost of capital of the Company and the Group in the short, medium, or long term. Assessing the significance of identified impacts, risks, and opportunities related to sustainability matters, through the selection and application of appropriate thresholds and Formulating assumptions that are reasonable under the prevailing circumstances. The Company's and the Group's Management is also responsible for preparing the Sustainability Statement in accordance with Article 154 of Law 4548/2018, as amended and in force by Law 5164/2024 which incorporated Article 29(a) of EU Directive 2013/34 into Greek legislation. In this context, the Company's and the Group's Management is responsible for: Compliance of the Sustainability Statement with the ESRS. Preparing the disclosures in the section EU Taxonomy Report of the Sustainability Statement in compliance with the provisions of Article 8 of Regulation EU 2020/852. Designing and implementing appropriate internal controls that management deems necessary to ensure that the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error and Selecting and applying appropriate reporting methods, including assumptions and estimates regarding individual disclosures in the Sustainability Statement, which have been assessed as reasonable under the circumstances. The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the preparation process of the Sustainability Statement. Inherent Limitations in the Preparation of the Sustainability Statement Our work covered the items mentioned in the section "Scope of Work Performed" to obtain limited assurance based on the procedures included in the Schedule. Our work does not constitute an audit or review of historical financial information, in accordance with the applicable International Standards on Auditing or the International Standards on Review Engagements, and therefore we do not express any other assurance beyond the stated in the section "Scope of Work Performed". Auditor's Responsibilities This limited assurance report has been prepared based on the provisions of Article 154C of Law 4548/2018 and Article 32A of Law 4449/2017. Our responsibility is to design and perform the limited assurance engagement to obtain limited assurance regarding whether the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a limited assurance report that includes our conclusion. A misstatement may arise from fraud or error and is considered material when, individually or cumulatively, it could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users, taken based on the Sustainability Statement as a whole.
365 In the context of a limited assurance engagement in accordance with ISAE 3000 (Revised), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the engagement. Our responsibilities regarding the Sustainability Statement, in relation to the Process, include: Performing risk assessment procedures, including understanding relevant internal controls to identify risks related to whether the Process followed by the Company and the Group for identifying the information referred to in the Sustainability Statement does not meet the applicable requirements of the ESRS, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion on the effectiveness of internal controls over the Process and Designing and performing procedures to assess whether the Process for identifying the information referred to in the Sustainability Statement is consistent with the description of the Process as disclosed in the Impact, risk, and opportunity management section of the said Statement. Furthermore, we are responsible for: Performing risk assessment procedures, including understanding relevant internal controls, to identify those disclosures where a material misstatement is likely to occur, whether due to fraud or error, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion on the effectiveness of the Company's and the Group's internal controls. Designing and performing procedures regarding those disclosures of the consolidated Sustainability Statement, where a material misstatement is likely to occur. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. Scope of Work Performed Our work includes performing procedures and obtaining evidence to draw a limited assurance conclusion and exclusively covers the limited assurance procedures provided in the limited assurance Schedule issued by decision 262/22-01-2025 of the Hellenic Accounting and Auditing Standards Oversight Board (hereinafter "Schedule"), as formulated for the issuance of a limited assurance report on the Sustainability Statement of the Company and the Group. Our procedures were designed in order to obtain a limited level of assurance on which we to base our conclusion, and do not provide all the required evidence in order to obtain a reasonable level of assurance.
