Bragg Gaming Group shareholders delivered a surprise outcome at the company’s annual general meeting on 18 June. While most board nominees secured strong backing, CEO Matevž Mazij failed to win enough votes to be re-elected as a director. The Bragg shareholder vote also covered the appointment of auditors for the coming year.

• Five director nominees were successfully re-elected to the board. Holly Gagnon, Mark Clayton, Thomas Winter, Donald Robertson and Aaron Baryoseph all received majority support from shareholders. Clayton and Winter recorded approval levels above 99%, making them the strongest-supported candidates.
• Mazij received 5.01 million votes in favour and 6.29 million votes against his re-election. This represented 44.33% support and 55.67% opposition. As a result, the CEO did not meet the requirements set out in the company’s majority voting policy.
• Following the Bragg shareholder vote, Mazij submitted an offer to resign from the board. He will remain a director while the board reviews the resignation and decides on next steps. Under company policy and Canadian corporate law, the process can continue for up to 90 days.
• Shareholders also approved the reappointment of MNP LLP as Bragg’s auditor for the next financial year, with 99.71% support. Bragg provides iGaming content, platform technology and player engagement tools to operators across more than 30 regulated markets worldwide. The outcome of the Bragg shareholder vote is likely to remain a key focus until the board reaches a final decision on Mazij’s position.
