The parent company of Betway and Spin, Super Group, released its financial results for the second quarter of 2022.
Super Group’s Revenue in Second Quarter Dips
The results cover the three months ended June 30, 2022, and reveal a decrease in the company’s revenue. In Q2 last year, Super Group’s revenue was €355.2 million ($367 million), while for the same period this year, it decreased by 10% to €320.8 million ($331.6 million). The company explained the 10% decrease in revenue was the result of a decline in its online casino net gaming revenue, as well as income from brand license fees. However, despite the decline in revenue, Super Group acknowledged that the Q2 result this year was partially offset thanks to an increase in sports betting net revenue.
Super Group outlined that its profit after tax for the second quarter this year increased. While for the same period in 2021, profit after tax halted at €63.9 million ($66.1 million), this year, it increased to €298.6 million ($308.7 million). Another increase was observed in EBITDA for Q2 this year which hit €319.3 million ($330.1 million). In contrast, for Q2 last year, EBITDA halted at €91.4 million ($94.5 million).
