Raketech has announced its Q1 2024 financial results.

Q1 2024 Financial Highlights

  • Revenues in Q1 of 2024 totaled EUR 19.0 million (EUR 15.8 million), reflecting an organic growth increase of 20.1% (24.4%), driven by continued strong performance from sub-affiliation partially offset by weaker-than-expected results within affiliation marketing.
  • EBITDA, adjusted for restructuring costs, was EUR 5.1 million (EUR 6.1 million), impacted by a weaker performance in Sweden compared to the previous year and soft performance of the Casumba assets following the Google Core update during the quarter. Other regions and products performed well, with sub-affiliation delivering a strong quarter in terms of EBITDA contribution.
  • Operating profit, adjusted for costs related to re-structuring, amounted to EUR 2.0 million (EUR 3.8 million).
  • Free cash flow before earnouts increased to EUR 6.5 million (EUR 5.6 million) with a positive working capital development from trade receivables.
  • Earnouts settled during the quarter amounted to EUR 13.0 million.

Full-Year Outlook

Current trading, including April, implies an adjusted EBITDA of around EUR 20.0 million for the full year. Free cash flow before earnouts for the full year is estimated to come in just below adjusted EBITDA.

Subsequent Events After the End of the Period

On May 14, 2024, the board decided to withdraw its previously announced proposal to distribute dividends in 2024, in line with its commitment to maintaining financial flexibility and supporting the company’s long term growth ambitions. The primary focus is delivering value to shareholders and continuing to evaluate opportunities to enhance shareholder returns in a way that aligns with the Company’s long-term value-creation objectives.

Current Trading

Revenues in April 2024 amounted to EUR 5.9 million (EUR 5.9 million).

Raketech Acting CEO Johan Svensson said: “In the first quarter of 2024, we delivered EUR 19.0 million in revenues, representing an organic increase of 20.1%, primarily driven by Sub-affiliation. Adjusted EBITDA came in at EUR 5.1 million, while EBITDA was EUR 4.3 million, consistent with our trading update published on 1 May. We remain confident in our market-leading product offerings and see promising growth opportunities through our strategic initiatives in sports offerings, exclusive partnerships, and media deals. These efforts will position us well for continued growth in the coming years, and we remain committed to maximizing shareholder value.”

BetConstruct AI Launches Retail Jackpot Engine for Sportsbook – Redefining the Betshop Experience

Published

BetConstruct AI has introduced its Retail Jackpot Engine for Sportsbook, a new solution aimed at enhancing player engagement, increasing footfall, and driving turnover across retail betting environments.

The launch comes as operators seek to evolve beyond transactional betting experiences, with the new engine embedding dynamic jackpot functionality directly into the retail sportsbook ecosystem.

Driving Engagement in Retail Betshops
The Retail Jackpot Engine is designed to create a more immersive and engaging atmosphere in betshops, encouraging players to return more often, spend more time in-store, and interact more deeply with sportsbook offerings.

Flexible and Fully Configurable
A key strength of the solution is its flexibility. Operators can configure jackpot pools at multiple levels, including:

  • A single network-wide jackpot
  • Individual jackpots per betshop
  • Custom clusters based on location or player segments

Trigger mechanisms are equally adaptable, with options for amount-based triggers (activated when jackpots reach a set value) or time-based triggers (released after a defined period). This allows operators to tailor jackpot dynamics to their specific commercial strategies.

Omnichannel Visibility for Maximum Impact
To maximise visibility, real-time jackpot values are displayed across all in-shop touchpoints, including screens, cashier terminals, and self-service kiosks. Additionally, jackpot amounts are printed directly on betting tickets, extending engagement beyond the shop environment.

A Long-Term Retail Growth Tool
Rather than serving as a short-term promotion, the Retail Jackpot Engine is positioned as a strategic solution for sustained retail growth. By increasing repeat visits, session duration, and betting activity, it aims to strengthen both operator revenues and long-term player engagement.
