​ In 2021, changes in estimates related to prior years was €2.1 million, primarily related to Norway. New income tax regulations for Switzerland in 2019: As of May 19, 2019, Switzerland approved a change in the Swiss Tax Code, which grants the cantons more freedom in their tax governance. In general, tax rates were lowered, but in the case of Sportradar, privileges for entities which obtain the majority of their revenue abroad are also abolished. Consequently, the effective tax rate for Sportradar increased from 9.0% to 14.5% as of January 1, 2020. Consequently, Sportradar applied the 14.5% rate in measuring its deferred tax assets/liabilities as of December 31, 2019. In addition, entities including Sportradar AG, which previously benefitted from the 9% rate due to their international activities, are deemed to dispose and reacquire their overseas operations free of tax. The uplift in value of these operations is then deductible for tax purposes over the next ten years (Tax-step up). Within Sportradar AG this tax-free step-up amount totals €1,948.0 million. This represents a deductible temporary difference as this is a tax basis for an asset which has no carrying value on the Company balance sheet. As of December 31, 2019, a deferred tax asset of €17.0 million was recognized based on the level of suitable taxable profits forecast over the next 10 years. In 2022, a write-down on the deferred tax asset in the amount of €5.3 million was recognized, given the expectation on the usage of the expected tax benefits in Switzerland were reduced. As of December 31, 2022 the deferred tax asset amounts to € 10.3 million. In 2023, a further write-down on the deferred tax asset in the amount of €3.0 million was recognized, given the expectation on the usage of the expected tax benefits in Switzerland were reduced. As of December 31, 2023 the deferred tax asset amount to € 7.3 million The reconciliation of the changes in the net deferred tax asset (liability) recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position: ​
