Issuer’s history and business
Star-Typ Sport Zakłady Wzajemne sp. z o.o., the legal predecessor of STS S.A., was established in 1997. Star-Typ Sport Zakłady Wzajemne sp. z o.o. was transformed into STS S.A. in 2020 and STS Holding S.A. was established in 2021.
The Company (the “Group”) is a leading entity in the gaming industry with nearly 25 years of experience in the Polish market and an approximately 46% share in the Polish market as of 2020 (in terms of turnover, according to STS S.A. estimates based on Ministry of Finance data). Since 2019, the Group has been developing its presence in international markets and currently provides services to approximately 1.5 million customers in Poland and Europe. The Group’s service portfolio includes sports betting: regular sports betting, virtual sports betting, simulated card games betting (BetGames), and a wide range of electronic sports betting (eSports). Outside Poland, the Group also offers an online casino. The Group’s current business development is mainly focused on further increasing the reach of its mobile services, which are currently the largest sales channel contributing 69.4% of the Group’s revenue in 2020. The vast majority of the Group’s revenue comes from the Polish market: approximately 96% in 2020, 97% in 2019 and 100% in 2018. The remaining revenue is generated on other markets. As the Group has started to expand into foreign markets, the share of revenue from abroad may increase in the future.
