This acquisition represents a significant step for Better Collective in expanding its reach and strengthening its position in the Danish sports media landscape. 

The acquisition involves a total purchase price of €6.5m on a cash and debt-free basis， to be paid in three instalments. Better Collective plans to finance the acquisition using cash， and anticipates a post-synergy EBITDA multiple of below 5x for 2024. The financial targets for 2023 remain unchanged post-acquisition. 

Tipsbladet， a trusted sports media entity with a legacy spanning 75 years， has evolved from a traditional printed magazine to a modern digital platform. As of Oct. 2， 2023， Tipsbladet.dk will officially join Better Collective， which is headquartered in Denmark. 

Following the acquisition， Jesper Søgaard， Co-Founder & CEO of Better Collective， said: “I am very proud that we have acquired Tipsbladet that for 75 years has been a go-to sports media for many Danes that want to engage with prime soccer content.” 

Henrik Stegger Nielsen， the former owner of Tipsbladet， added: “Since 2007， when I acquired Tipsbladet， I have worked hard to make it a healthy and sustainable business. 

“I have succeeded，Player and I could hardly imagine a better buyer for Tipsbladet than Better Collective. I know that they will both take good care of Tipsbladet and， with their ambitions and competencies， develop it even further."
