CEO Comment
“Strong finish to the best year ever for Betsson — we continue to strengthen our position as one of the global leaders in gaming and betting.
“As we put 2024 behind us, we can conclude that it was the best year ever for Betsson, where we continued to strengthen our position as one of the global leaders in gaming and betting. The year was characterized by high growth, strengthened profitability and strategic investments in line with our long-term goals and our vision to offer the best gaming experience in the industry.
“Our investments in the Latin America and Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia (CEECA) regions continue to be a key driver of the Group’s growth, and we have successfully built a strong position in several key markets using our expertise in online gaming and our proprietary technology platform and sportsbook. Our commitment to sports and marketing through strategic sponsorships has also played an important role in strengthening Betsson’s brand and engaging our players globally.
“Our investments to strengthen the product offering and increase brand awareness contributed to the excellent results for the year. For the full year 2024 we passed one billion euros in revenue for the first time, which was 17 percent higher than the previous year. At the same time, the EBIT margin strengthened to over 23 percent thanks to our scalable business model and continued cost control. The cash flows of the business and the robust balance sheet enable us to keep paying attractive dividends to our shareholders while we continue investing in future growth. For 2024, the Board has proposed an increased ordinary dividend of 0.657 euros per share, and a special dividend of 0.10 euros per share.
“During the fourth quarter we saw sustained high customer activity in both casino and sports betting. New records were set across the board on a Group level – customer deposits, gaming turnover, revenue and EBIT were the highest ever in a single quarter. Revenue increased by 22 percent and hence passed 300 million euros for the first time in a single quarter. At the same time, EBIT increased by 23 percent compared to the corresponding period in the previous year.
“I would like to thank our employees for their dedication and hard work, which have been instrumental in our continued growth over the past year. We have a fantastic team that continues to deliver exceptional results, and their passion and expertise, combined with our strong corporate culture, position us well for the future.
“We continue to forge new paths and act as pioneers in everything we do and look forward to continuing our growth journey in 2025. Geographic expansion and diversification remain key words for us, and we have a full pipeline of activities to support continued growth. With disciplined capital allocation, promising strategic initiatives and our commitment to strengthening the customer experience, we are confident that we can continue to create long-term value for our shareholders and customers.”
