At the ceremony for the Global Gaming Award, held at the world’s largest gaming fair ICE in London, NOVOMATIC on February 3, 2020 managed to score a hat trick. For the third time in a row, NOVOMATIC was honored as “Casino Supplier of the Year” at the international award ceremony. In the race to defend its title, the company based in Gumpoldskirchen, Lower Austria, prevailed against nine high-profile international competitors. The coveted prize was awarded during a festive ceremony at the Hippodrome Casino in London. “To us, being named ‘Casino Supplier of the Year’ for the third year in a row is a very special confirmation of our achievements as a reliable and innovative international technology provider. We could not have hoped for a better start to our 40th anniversary year,” says NOVOMATIC CEO Harald Neumann, pleased with the renewed success.

This prestigious prize is awarded to companies in a total of 16 categories for their product and service innovations. The jury, consisting of more than 50 of the world’s leading industry experts, selects the winners from 175 nominated candidates. Because of this, the Global Gaming Award is considered one of the fairest and most reputable awards in the entire gaming industry, as every vote is awarded independently and audited by KPMG, the world’s largest auditing and consulting firm. The Global Gaming Award is a clear indicator of a company’s success and credibility, as it recognizes the company as a market leader and rewards the work done over the previous twelve months.

Bragg Gaming Group, a global B2B content-driven iGaming technology provider, reported record financial results for the first quarter of 2024.

Matevž Mazij, Chief Executive Officer for Bragg, commented: “We carried our strong momentum in 2023 into the first quarter, delivering robust growth that underscores the ongoing success of our efforts to transform Bragg into a content-focused iGaming solutions provider across expanding North American and European markets. Year-over-year revenue increased by 4.2% to EUR 23.8 million, largely propelled by organic growth from our current client base, the addition of new customers in multiple jurisdictions, and impressive results from our in-house Wild Streak Gaming casino games studio.

“Although gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA saw modest decreases in the first quarter stemming from the extension and renegotiation of our agreement with Entain Plc to provide our PAM platform to BetCity.nl through 2025, we maintain a strong belief in our ability to achieve long-term growth and profitability. Our proprietary and exclusive third-party content continues to gain ground with an increasing number of top-tier operators globally, and we introduced a total of 19 new exclusive titles worldwide in the first quarter of 2024.

“Additionally, as we continue to make encouraging progress on our strategic alternatives review process, it’s important to emphasize that we are operating the business as usual and remain laser-focused on capitalizing on growth opportunities.

“With that in mind and in response to the increasing demand and growth in the iGaming marketplace, subsequent to quarter end, we took two significant steps to further fuel our growth initiatives. First, we secured a USD 7.0 million investment through a promissory note, enhancing our balance sheet flexibility as we continue to execute our strategy and explore strategic alternatives to maximize shareholder value.

“Second, we bolstered our leadership team with the appointment of Neill Whyte as our new Chief Commercial Officer. With over 18 years of iGaming experience and a proven track record of driving growth through successful commercial partnerships, Neill’s expertise will be invaluable as we leverage our extensive content and product portfolio to expand in existing and new markets. This key hire is another testament to how we are scaling our organization for sustained growth and profitability.

“While the strategic review process progresses, we remain bullish on the opportunities ahead as the trend of iGaming regulation continues worldwide. We see exciting potential in newly regulating markets like Brazil, Peru and Finland, as well as untapped opportunities in regions like Africa that we are actively exploring.

“The strategic moves we have made have established Bragg as a vital content provider for premier international iGaming operators, reinforcing our base for reliable and lucrative growth. Equipped with the appropriate strategies, financial resources, and talent, we are well-prepared to maintain our business momentum while pursuing initiatives that foster cash flow growth and deliver increased value to our shareholders.”
