Super Group reports record Q1 as revenue tops €379 million
Super Group, the parent company of Betway, a leading online sports betting and gaming business, and Spin, the multi-brand online casino, has announced first quarter 2024 unaudited consolidated financial results.
Revenue increased by 12% to €379.3 million for the first quarter 2024 (constant currency: 17% to €389.3 million) from €338.5 million in the same period from the prior year driven by growth from Africa and North America (predominantly Canada) markets partially offset by declines from the Middle East and Asia-Pacific market.
Profit for the three months ended March 31, 2024 of €41.0 million, including a pre-tax gain of €40.1 million relating to the sale of the B2B division of DGC and a non-cash charge of €13.1 million for change in fair value of option liability.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA ex-US of €68.7 million and a loss of €22.3 million from the US amounted to Adjusted EBITDA of €46.5 million.
Neal Menashe, Chief Executive Officer of Super Group, commented: “We’ve had a phenomenal start to the year, continuing our momentum from a strong end to 2023. This robust performance has been delivered by our global team’s ongoing focus and investment into core markets that are yielding strong returns, providing us with a solid foundation for the remainder of the year.”
Alinda van Wyk, Chief Financial Officer of Super Group, stated: “We achieved record results for a first quarter of €374 million of revenue and €69 million of Adjusted EBITDA, for the ex-US business. Our laser focus on creating a leaner, more efficient operating model has delivered results, with Q1 operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue falling to below 19%. Investment into high-growth areas of the business continues at pace and we remain confident that we are in a strong position to realize our goals set for 2024.”
