Update re: Caliplay

Playtech (LSE: PTEC) notes the announcement made earlier today by Tecnologia en Entretenimiento Caliplay, S.A.P.I. de C.V. ('Caliplay') that Caliplay has issued legal proceedings in Mexico against, amongst others, Playtech Software Limited and PT Services Malta Ltd.

Caliplay is a highly valued customer and partner of Playtech and this has been an extremely productive relationship for both parties.

Whilst Caliplay has stated that the Mexican courts accepted jurisdiction on 28 August 2023, Playtech only became aware of the issuance of proceedings today. Playtech has not yet had access to the court filings in Mexico and, to the best of its knowledge, has not yet been served with any proceedings. Playtech is therefore only aware of the matters in Caliplay's announcement.

Once Playtech has had access to Caliplay's court filings and has been able to review the substance of any proceedings, the Company will update shareholders further as necessary.
