We saw excellent performance across all of our key performance metrics despite challenging macroeconomic conditions including a second consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA in the U.S. Our continued long-term partnerships with leading global sports bodies, and innovation across new technologies such as artificial intelligence and computer vision and as important, a team passionate about delivering solutions to our clients, make us very excited about our growth in 2023 and beyond.”

Ulrich Harmuth, Interim Chief Financial Officer added: “Our fourth quarter financial results illustrate the momentum we’ve built throughout 2022. We demonstrated operational leverage in our business model, despite making significant investments in our products and technology, streamlined our organization to be more customer-centric, and strengthened our balance sheet by repaying our debt. Our 2023 guidance of revenue growth and margin expansion reflects the investments we have made to date and the growing global sports market opportunity.”

Segment Information

RoW Betting

  • Segment revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased by 29% to €105.9 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2021. This growth was driven primarily by increased sales of the company’s higher value-add offerings including Managed Betting Services (MBS), which increased 83% to €38.3 million. MBS growth was attributable to a record MTS annualized turnover3 of over €19.4 billion, helped by the FIFA World Cup, and the success of its strategy to move existing customers to higher value add products.
  • Segment Adjusted EBITDA2 in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased to €46.3 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2021. Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin2 decreased to 44% from 56% in the fourth quarter of 2021 driven by increased investment in AI technology for MTS and Computer Vision technology.

RoW Audiovisual (AV)

  • Segment revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased by 17% to €41.8 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2021. Growth was driven by cross-selling audiovisual content to existing data customers and expanding AV portfolio sales with existing AV customers.
  • Segment Adjusted EBITDA2 in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased 20% to €11.9 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2021. Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin2 was 28% in the fourth quarter of 2022 and 2021 as AV revenue growth was offset by higher production and personnel costs.

United States

  • Segment revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased by 77% to €41.2 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2021. This growth was driven by an increase in cross-selling non-data products to betting operators as well as benefiting from growth in the underlying betting market due to new states legalizing betting.
  • Segment Adjusted EBITDA2 in the fourth quarter of 2022 was €4.3 million compared with a loss of (€7.6) million in the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily driven by enhanced operating leverage as a result of the growing scale of the business despite continuous investments in the U.S. segment's products and content portfolio. Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin2 improved to 11% from (33%) compared with the fourth quarter of 2021.

Costs and Expenses

  • Purchased services and licenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased by €14.9 million to €48.4 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2021, reflecting continuous investments in content creation, greater event coverage and higher scouting costs. Of the total purchased services and licenses, approximately €10.0 million was expensed sports rights.
  • Personnel expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased by €34.0 million to €81.0 million, an increase of 72% compared with the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was driven by acquisition costs of €9.0 million, a one-time cost of €5.0 million as a result of management restructuring as well as increased headcount associated with our investments in AI and Computer Vision, and inflationary adjustments for labor costs.
  • Other Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased by €7.7 million to €34.9 million, an increase of 28%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2021 primarily as a result of €13.0 million non-recurring litigation costs. Excluding this litigation cost, operating expenses decreased, compared with the fourth quarter of 2021.
  • Total sports rights costs in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased by €11.2 million to €49.7 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily a result of newly acquired rights in 2022 for ITF and UEFA, as well as increased sports rights costs related to the NHL.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Operating Metrics
We have provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with IFRS, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Cash Flow Conversion (together, the “Non-IFRS financial measures”), as well as operating metrics, including Net Retention Rate. We use these non-IFRS financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to IFRS measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance. We believe that the use of these non-IFRS financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-IFRS financial measures to investors.

Non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS financial measures provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.

  • “Adjusted EBITDA” represents profit (loss) for the period adjusted for share based compensation, depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of sports rights), impairment of intangible assets, other financial assets and equity-accounted investee, loss from loss of control of subsidiary, remeasurement of previously held equity-accounted investee, non-routine litigation costs, management restructuring costs, professional fees for SOX and ERP implementations, share of profit (loss) of equity-accounted investee (SportTech AG), foreign currency (gains) losses, finance income and finance costs, and income tax (expense) benefit and certain other non-recurring items, as described in the reconciliation below.

    License fees relating to sports rights are a key component of how we generate revenue and one of our main operating expenses. Such license fees are presented either under purchased services and licenses or under depreciation and amortization, depending on the accounting treatment of each relevant license. Only licenses that meet the recognition criteria of IAS 38 are capitalized. The primary distinction for whether a license is capitalized or not capitalized is the contracted length of the applicable license. Therefore, the type of license we enter into can have a significant impact on our results of operations depending on whether we are able to capitalize the relevant license. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA removes this difference in classification by decreasing our EBITDA by our amortization of sports rights. As such, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA reflects the full costs of our sports right's licenses. Management believes that, by deducting the full amount of amortization of sports rights in its calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, the result is a financial metric that is both more meaningful and comparable for management and our investors while also being more indicative of our ongoing operating performance.

    We present Adjusted EBITDA because management believes that some items excluded are non-recurring in nature and this information is relevant in evaluating the results of the respective segments relative to other entities that operate in the same industry. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors for evaluating Sportradar’s operating performance against competitors, which commonly disclose similar performance measures. However, Sportradar’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled performance measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a substitute for any IFRS financial measure.

    Items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA include significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to, or a substitute for, profit for the period, revenue or other financial statement data presented in our consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our IFRS results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplemental measure.
  • “Adjusted EBITDA margin” is the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to revenue.
  • “Adjusted Free Cash Flow” represents net cash from operating activities adjusted for payments for lease liabilities, acquisition of property and equipment, acquisition of intangible assets (excluding certain intangible assets required to further support an acquired business) and foreign currency gains (losses) on our cash equivalents. We consider Adjusted Free Cash Flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after the purchase of property and equipment, of intangible assets and payment of lease liabilities, which can then be used to, among other things, to invest in our business and make strategic acquisitions. A limitation of the utility of Adjusted Free Cash Flow as a measure of liquidity is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for the year.
  • “Cash Flow Conversion” is the ratio of Adjusted Free Cash Flow to Adjusted EBITDA.

In addition, we define the following operating metric as follows:

  • “Net Retention Rate” is calculated for a given period by starting with the reported Trailing Twelve Month revenue, which includes both subscription-based and revenue sharing revenue, from our top 200 customers as of twelve months prior to such period end, or prior period revenue. We then calculate the reported trailing twelve-month revenue from the same customer cohort as of the current period end, or current period revenue. Current period revenue includes any upsells and is net of contraction and attrition over the trailing twelve months but excludes revenue from new customers in the current period. We then divide the total current period revenue by the total prior period revenue to arrive at our Net Retention Rate. We have referred to this calculation as “Dollar Based Net Retention Rate” in prior press releases, which is the same calculation we are now using for “Net Retention Rate.”

The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to profit (loss) for the period, its most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, on a forward- looking basis without unreasonable effort because items that impact this IFRS financial measure are not within the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. These items may include but are not limited to foreign exchange gains and losses. Such information may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on the Company’s future financial results.
