"The pinnacle of our 2023 plan was our presence at G2E Las Vegas", Vitor Francisco, Director at FBM

How was your experience at G2E this year?

It was a fantastic event. Attendees provided highly positive feedback on the experience we curated in our booth and the diverse range of products we showcased in both land-based and online verticals.

These were three intense days with a full agenda of great conversations with current and potential clients and we hope to capitalize on this networking in the upcoming months with significant expansion steps for both FBM and FBMDS operations.

Regarding the products FBM presented at G2E, what is the message for potential new partners?

The debuts of Auria and Reel Strike in the land-based gaming world were a resounding success. This combined launch of cabinet and game products serves as further evidence of FBM's unwavering commitment to delivering high-quality, innovative, and valuable products. These offerings are designed to both attract and retain casino players with their captivating game logic and aesthetics while also delighting casino managers with their profitability.

After the three days of the event, there is no doubt that we achieved our goal with this new cabinet and slots experience we are bringing to the market.

In the digital realm, FBMDS keeps expanding its portfolio in several gaming categories (video bingos, slots, crash games, and table games). Casino managers and players are enjoying the disruptive, customized, and localized online casino games we have been crafting. The plan is to maintain this approach and keep growing FBMDS presence in the iGaming universe by adding value and new thrills to online casinos portfolios.

How are you working on innovations within the US market?

We know how competitive and demanding the US market is. Consequently, we created a comprehensive, long-term strategy for this market to achieve consistent and sustainable growth. Our journey began in May in Florida, where we introduced a limited selection of games. Subsequently, in August at OIGA, we expanded our offerings. The pinnacle of our 2023 plan was our presence at G2E Las Vegas.

During this tradeshow, we showcased a diverse set of slots games created by FBM, which we intend to bring to the American market soon.

Moving forward, we will continue to assess feedback from players and operators in the field. We intend to consistently exceed the expectations of American casino operators and players while we make new products available.

After the success of the firm's presentation at G2E, could you give a summary of the Company’s achievements this year?

It is still premature to summarize the entirety of 2023 with almost three months remaining. However, it is safe to say that the past ten months have been an incredible journey for the FBM group.

In the land-based sector, FBM made significant strides. We entered the US market with its slots, marked the beginning of a new era in Spain, accelerated the expansion of Jin Qián Link in Mexico, and debuted the Mythic Link collection in the Philippines. Recently, we made fantastic additions to our cabinets and slots portfolio by launching Auria and Reel Strike, respectively.

Within our online division, FBMDS started the year by offering a new generation of table games with Top+Plus family that comprises Baccarat, Black Jack and Banca Francesa. We continued our journey of customization by making Bailão Junino available in Brazil, and recently unveiled the first two episodes of Golden Mystery - a slots pack intertwined with an intriguing crime story. Furthermore, we developed our very first crash game with the rewarding trips of Mr. Champion - Champion Tales. These portfolio enhancements occurred in tandem with FBMDS's successful integrations into new online casinos operating in various regions around the world.

Now, it is time to maximize the potential of all these new offerings and revitalize our ambitions for the rest of the year. This involves strengthening our Champion Legacy across various markets and developing new products poised to bring added value to this fiercely competitive industry.
