Reinvestment scenarios · appendix detail · Y6 EBITDA

12 of 300+ scenarios run to optimise capital allocation. Recommended: 8-market core + Spain (A+ES) — €106m raised (16+30+30+30). Reinvested month-by-month, ROMI-ranked, to NDP caps; where flat capital can't keep every month above buffer, base marketing is throttled to fit.

Buffer reserves only against unavoidable costs (excl. discretionary marketing, livestreaming and quiz opex). A/B base marketing throttled to ~0.65 to stay fully buffer-clean under the fixed flat capital; D needs none. * = below-buffer only in the permitted Nov–Dec 2026 launch window. † C-15 (€15m/yr, capital locked to each calendar year) dips below buffer in Nov/Dec 2027 & 2028 — cash stays positive (min €1.5m); structural (can't pull capital earlier), throttling backfires. At €15m/yr only the 3-market core with no quiz/livestreaming is viable. MOIC = Y6 Full EBITDA × 10× exit ÷ total capital raised.

Where judgement overrode the model

12 of 300+ scenarios run to optimise capital allocation. The recommended plan — 8-market core + Spain (A+ES), €106m (16+30+30+30) — departs from the pure model in three deliberate places:

Denmark protected at €5m from FY2027

Test market Aug 2026 → Jan 2027, flagship after. The pure model spends less on DK — we override it because Denmark has to win for everything behind it.

Quiz & exclusive streaming both stay on

The hooks that make us differentiated enough. They are product, not just marketing — so dropping either weakens the proposition.

Max TAM tops MOIC but strains funding

Scenario D leads the table, but stretches the raise furthest. For a similar outcome, lower capital is the more fundable choice.

Recommendation & key findings

Recommended · Scenario A+ES
€127m · 12.0×

Current plan with Spain. Beats B+ES (€113m) — UK dilutes. Spain's large NDP cap is the biggest reinvestment sink.

Without Spain · Scenario A
€72m · 6.8×

Fallback if Spain doesn't land (Canada-AB in its place) — Y6 drops ~€55m vs A+ES.

Max TAM · Scenario D
€305m · 18.4×

Highest absolute Y6 and best MOIC — needs €166m and all 18 markets.

Key findings
  • A beats B at every level — UK has the worst ROMI; capital does more in the core (A+ES €127m > B+ES €113m).
  • Spain ≈ +€55m of Y6 — its large NDP cap is the biggest reinvestment sink.
  • A-DK-MAX force-fills DK from Jan 2027 (RO/FI cut to fund) — builds first-market DK volume but costs ~€14m of Y6 (€58m vs €72m); buffer caps DK below max at year-ends.
  • Quiz is the best growth product in the half-capital family (€94m, 10.0×); both-together doesn't pay.
  • Buffer policy is the swing factor — strict clean-after-2026 on fixed flat capital throttles base marketing (~0.65) and roughly halves Y6 vs a weak-buffer / front-loaded version. D needs no throttle.
  • Reinvestment into the highest-ROMI market with cap headroom is the core driver; capital, quiz/livestreaming and timing are amplifiers.

MOIC = Y6 Full EBITDA × 10× exit ÷ total capital raised. A/B base marketing throttled to stay fully buffer-clean under the fixed 30/30/30 capital (no new money, no cross-year shifts).

  • 8 markets (no Spain; Canada-AB in its place), driven to NDP caps.

Half-capital family
DK RO FI · €61–94m
  • Each growth product adds real Y6 over bare C.
  • Quiz is the best product — but needs €94m, not half.
  • Opex must be bridged through the 2027–28 valley — next slide.

Y6 EBITDA is set by how much excess cash is reinvested into the highest-ROMI market with cap headroom. Capital size, quiz/livestreaming and tranche timing are amplifiers. ROMI = blended ARPU ÷ CPA per market.

Quiz vs livestreaming · half-capital family · DK RO FI

Same three markets (DK · RO · FI), same reinvestment engine — only the growth product changes. Answers Mads & Dorianne's question: which product, and should we run both? All on the bug-fixed + quiz-fixed model (no phantom 2026; Mads's prize-money & NDP-floor applied).

Quiz is the best product
€94m · 10.0×

Quiz beats livestreaming on both Y6 and MOIC (vs €72m · 9.2× for livestreaming). Mads's prize-money fix cut quiz opex to ~€1m/yr, so it decisively out-earns livestreaming's ~€5.5m/yr drag.

Both doesn't pay
€76m → €72m

Running both is no better than livestreaming alone (€72m) and worse MOIC than quiz — the combined ~€6.5m/yr opex starves reinvestment. Both pays only at materially higher capital.

Not "half capital"
€61–94m

Stripped of the phantom 2026 revenue, every uplift variant needs €78–94m — the opex has to be bridged by capital through 2027–28 before the uplift matures. More than was assumed.

All four at full reinvestment, buffer-clean (Dec 2026 launch exception only). Capital differs because each product needs a different cushion to cross the 2027–28 valley (re-timed within each total — no new money). Quiz NDP floored per Mads (never falls year-over-year); prize money references full market GGR.

DK-€5m strategy · when to switch on quiz + livestreaming

Same plan — 8 markets, €30m/yr, DK held at €5m/yr from 2027 (carries DK's own quiz+livestreaming), RO/FI base reduced to fund it. Only the timing of RO/FI quiz+livestreaming changes.

Early beats phasing
+€24m Y6

Running RO/FI quiz+livestreaming from the start (€61m) beats waiting until 2029 (€37m). The uplift builds cohorts — depositors won from 2027 are mature by 2031; a 2029 start leaves only ~2 years of maturity.

Why it's counter-intuitive
horizon

"Wait until RO/FI scale" maximises per-period ROI — quiz/livestreaming does run at a loss on sub-scale markets in 2027–28. But those early losses are absorbed by the buffer, and on the 6-year Y6 endpoint the early-started cohorts dominate.

DK €5m carries itself
€106m · 5.8×

DK at €5m/yr from 2027 runs ~2,279 NDP/mo and €36.6m DK Y6 GGR — enough scale to carry DK's own quiz+livestreaming opex. RO/FI base cut to fund it; buffer stays clean (trim 0.60).

8 markets, flat €30m/yr (16+30+30+30), DK €5m/yr from 2027 (held), RO/FI base reduced. Quiz+livestreaming on DK from start in both; only RO/FI timing differs. Both buffer-clean after Dec 2026. The phased case improves 2027–28 interim ROI/cash but sacrifices ~€24m of Y6 cohort maturity.
