“I’m delighted to say Kambi’s positive momentum continued into the second quarter of the year, with strong financial results driven by the UEFA European Football Championship, compensating for a lack of NFL and college sports in the US.
In the context of the seasonal US sporting calendar, Kambi was still able to post strong Q2 results, with revenue of €42.8m, an operator turnover index of 911 and an operator trading margin of 9.3%, completing a highly encouraging half-year.
In June, we held a virtual Capital Markets Day, which enabled us to present our strategy for the future, including our position in markets with strong potential for growth, the global opportunities ahead and how we plan to capitalise on those opportunities. I believe that Kambi, more than anyone else in the market, has what it takes to be the world’s number one sportsbook provider in today’s increasingly regulated and competitive landscape.
In terms of global opportunities and our addressable market, there was positive news from Canada with the repeal of its ban on single wagers, in turn handing provinces the ability to offer a much more liberalised form of regulated sports betting. We’re pleased to see provinces picking up the baton and making strides towards new licensing frameworks. Ontario, the country’s largest province with a population of approximately 15 million, could be the first to go live by the end of the year.
We’re very excited about what the future holds at Kambi. We have a leading product, a fantastic network of partners and talented and passionate staff, recently illustrated by Kambi winning three prestigious EGR B2B Awards and two Global Gaming Awards. Kambi only succeeds when our partners succeed, and these awards are as much a testament to our fantastic partners as they are to us.
Meanwhile, our success in recent years provides us with a strong balance sheet, giving us the ability to expand when and where needed, expedite our global growth plans, and create further shareholder value.”
