Strong growth in 2022 annual turnover: € 388.8 M
Sustained dynamics with the normalization of the operations
Growth of +2.0% vs 2019 at a constant scope
Paris, 13th December 2022, 06:00 p.m. – Groupe Partouche, a European leader in gaming, publishes today its consolidated turnover for the 4th quarter 2022 (August – October 2022) together with the entire fiscal year (November 2021 – October 2022).
Very good dynamics during the 4th quarter
In the 4th quarter of 2022, Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) rises by +20.3% to € 178.8 M, compared to € 148.7 M a year earlier. At constant scope (€ 178.0 M), it increases by +21.7% compared to the 4th quarter of 2021 and by +8.3% compared to the 4th quarter of 2019.
In France, 4th quarter 2022 GGR increases by +21.3% over one year to € 162.3 M, driven by all forms of games: +18.1% for slot machines, +44.4% for non-electronic table games and +28.1% for electronic games.
Abroad, GGR is up +11.4% compared to the 4th quarter of 2021, at € 16.5 M, with the growth of Swiss online games (+89.2%) mitigating the scope effects (see below). On a like-for-like basis, GGR abroad increases by +14.9% compared to 2019.
In total, Net Gaming Revenue after levies, increases by +5.5% to € 77.1 M in the 4th quarter 2022. Turnover for the 4th quarter 2022 amounts to € 100.7 M, up +6.7% year-on-year, after taking into account turnover from other activities.
Return to pre-crisis level of activity (+2.0% vs 2019 at a constant scope)
Since the lifting of all health restrictions relating to Covid-19 in all geographical areas, and more particularly in France in mid-March 2022, the Group’s activities have recorded sustained and regular growth.
Gross Gaming Revenue amounts to € 636.7 M in fiscal year 2022, up +81.8% year-on-year. The growth of the GGR is mainly explained by the resumption of the operations of all the establishments (the previous financial year having been marked by almost no operation in its first half).
The GGR also takes into account the following scope effects:
- in Belgium, the cessation of the operation of online games and bets and the management of the Ostend casino since 29th July 2021 (GGR of € 72.6 M in 2021 and € 46.4 M in 2019 – note, however, particularly high charges which will also be extinguished) and the entry into the Group of the Middelkerke casino from 1st July 2022, for an opening on 8th July 2022 after some renovation works (GGR of € 1.0 M in 2022);
- in Switzerland, the disposal of the stake held in the Crans-Montana casino on 31st January 2022 (GGR of € 5.3 M in 2021 and € 13.0 M in 2019).
Thus, Net Gaming Revenue amounts to € 305.5 M, up +41.5% vs. 2021 after taking into consideration the increase in levies taking into account the progressive scale.
Non-gaming revenue rises sharply by +109.2% to € 86.1 M, driven by restaurants and hotels due to the good momentum of the casinos. A good progression of the Aquabella hotel in Aix-en-Provence (+82.5%) should be noted in particular.
In total, annual turnover for 2022 amounts to € 388.8 M, up +52.0% compared to 2021. At constant scope, it increases by +108.2% compared to 2021 and by +2.0% compared to 2019, the last pre-Covid financial year.

Paris, 25th June 2024, 06:00 p.m. – During its meeting held on the 25th June 2024 and after having reviewed the management report of Groupe Partouche Executive Board, the Supervisory Board examined the audited accounts of the 1st half-year 2023-2024 (November 2023 to April 2024).
Strong Business Momentum and Growth Investment in Casinos
The strong business momentum in the half-year was reflected in a Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) increase of +1.7% to €346.9 million and a revenue increase of +2.3% to €220.6 million.
The Group’s EBITDA decreased by – 4.0% at € 41.0 M (i.e. 18.6% of turnover) compared to € 42.7 M (19.8% of turnover) in the first half of 2023.
The Group’s Current Operational Income (COI) reached € 15.5 M compared to € 19.3 M in the first half of 2023. This decrease materializes in the three business sectors (casinos, hotels and others):
- The casinos COI at € 24.3 M (compared to € 27.0 M in the first half of 2023) is penalized by operating difficulties encountered by the numerous establishments undergoing renovation in Vichy, La Tour-de-Salvagny, Saint Amand-les-Eaux, Divonne and Casino 314 (Cannes). Furthermore, the Middelkerke casino in Belgium, which relocated to the seafront at the end of March 2024, is penalized by its heavy development works;
- Conversely, the COI of online gaming in Meyrin (Switzerland) and Middelkerke (Belgium), launched since 29th January 2024, both increased by + € 0.7 M and + € 0.4 M respectively;
- The COI of the hotels is a loss of – € 2.7 M in H1 2024 compared to – € 2.3 M in H1 2023, as well as that of the “Other” sector at – € 6.2 M compared to – € 5.4 M.
Purchases and external expenses at € 72.6 M increased by € 2.0 M (+2.8%), with particularly:
- an increase in advertising/marketing expenses of € 0.8 M (+5.4%) relating to the operations of Groupe Partouche 50th anniversary, between March and December 2023, and to a more offensive digital marketing in Meyrin (Switzerland) linked to its online activity;
- an increase in subcontracting expenses of € 0.8 M (+14.3%) due to the rise in cleaning and security expenses (+ € 0.5 M) and other expenses and;
- conversely, purchases of materials fell by -3.7%, mainly due to the reduction in energy expenditure amounting to € 0.7 M (-8.1%) as a result of falling prices.
Employees’ expenses reached € 90.6 M, up by € 3.2 M, mainly due to an increase in the minimum wage (SMIC) as at 1st January 2024, and new conventional grids applicable from 1st April 2024.
Net Income amounted to € 7.1 M, compared to € 18.8 M on 30th April 2023, taking into account the following items:
- a non-current operating income of – € 1.0 M compared to a profit of € 0.7 M at 30th April 2023, resulting from the progress margin on the property development contract in La Grande Motte and from the disposal of two real estate assets in Contrexéville. Other non-current income and expenses mainly include accelerated depreciation carried out as part of the development work on La Plage 3.14 for € 0.7 M and the Casino 3.14 for € 0.2 M, as well as renovation work at the La Tour-de-Salvagny casino for € 0.1 M;
- a financial income of – € 1.0 M (compared to – € 1.5 M in H1 2023). The cost of financial debt is up as it follows the increase in the Group’s gross debt as well as the average annual interest rate given the macroeconomic situation. However, this increase in financial costs is largely offset by investment income which increased by € 1.5 M. In addition, financial expenses related to IFRS 16 lease liabilities increased by € 0.5 M;
- A tax expense (CVAE included) of € 6.1 M compared to a tax revenue + € 0.3 M in H1 2023due to the activation of the balance of the Group’s carry forward tax losses generating differed tax income of € 3.6 M, while in H1 2024, a consumption of differed tax of – € 2.7 M was observed.
With a cash flow net of levies of € 89.8 M, equity of € 367.3 and net debt of € 81.2 M (constructed in accordance with the terms of the syndicated loan contract, according to the former IAS 17 standards, excluding IFRS 16), the Group’s financial structure is sound and robust, enabling it to continue its growth investment program.
The 1st half-year financial report as of 30th April 2024 is available today on the Group’s website www.groupepartouche.com in the Finance section.

Glossary
The “Gross Gaming Revenue” corresponds to the sum of the various games operated, after deduction of the payment of the winnings to the players. This amount is debited by the “levies” (i.e. tax to the State, the city halls, CSG, CRDS).
The «Gross Gaming Revenue» becomes the “Net Gaming Revenue” after levies, which is a component of the turnover.
“Current Operating Income” (COI) includes all expenses and income directly related to the Group’s activities to the extent that these elements are recurrent, usual within the operating cycle or that they result from specific events or decisions pertaining to the Group’s activities.
“Consolidated EBITDA” (EBITDA) is made up of the balance of income and expenses of the current operating income, excluding depreciation (allocations and reversals) and provisions (allocations and reversals) related to the Group’ business activity included in the current operating income but excluded from Ebitda due to their non-recurring nature.
