LAS VEGAS, Nevada, March 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- High Roller Technologies, Inc. ("High Roller" or the "Company") (NYSE:ROLR), operator of the award-winning, premium online casino brands High Roller and Fruta, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, and provided a business update, including its planned expansion into regulated U.S. prediction markets through its binding partnership with Crypto.com | Derivatives North America (CDNA). As previously announced, High Roller will host a conference call to discuss fourth quarter and full year 2025 results and provide a business update today, March 10, 2026, at 4:30 PM Eastern Time (ET).
Management Commentary
"2025 capped a period of significant transformation for High Roller as we improved operational efficiency, refined our geographic footprint, and positioned the business for the next phase of growth as we expand into one of the most compelling new regulated categories — U.S. Prediction Markets," said Seth Young, Chief Executive Officer. "While we intentionally ceased B2C operations in certain markets throughout the year in response to regulatory shifts, we have worked diligently in parallel to prepare the business for the kind of scale we are anticipating through new market and product launches in 2026."
"To accelerate our growth, we recently strengthened our balance sheet with $26 million in capital, added seasoned executives to our leadership team, and continued to build other key partnerships to complement our premium brands and existing distribution capabilities. Our planned entry into new, regulated iGaming markets like Ontario is a natural extension of our core expertise, while our planned entry into the regulated U.S. prediction market space is a tremendously exciting, high-upside strategic opportunity," added Young. "We believe the pieces are now in place to capitalize on these opportunities, and we're confident in our ability to execute on our strategy moving forward."

This Report includes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures that we use to supplement our results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share are useful in evaluating our operating performance, similar to measures reported by our publicly-listed U.S. competitors, and regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share are not intended to be a substitute for any U.S. GAAP financial measure. As calculated, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.
We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before the impact of interest income and expense, income tax provision or benefit, and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the following items: stock-based compensation; and other non-recurring and non-operating costs or income, as described in the reconciliation below.
We define and calculate Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share as basic earnings (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders before the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets; stock-based compensation; and other non-recurring and non-operating costs or income, as described in the reconciliation below.
We include non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by management to evaluate our core operating performance and trends and to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share exclude certain expenses that are required in accordance with U.S. GAAP because they are non-recurring items (for example, in the case of severance costs), non-cash expenditures (for example, in the case of amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation), or non-operating items which are not related to our underlying business performance (for example, in the case of interest expense).
