Europe’s Online Gambling Growth Boosts Entire Industry

FN Media Group Presents Microsmallcap.com Market Commentary

 

New York, NY – February 17, 2022 – According to a year-end data report released by the European Gaming and Betting Association (EGBA) in partnership with H2 Gambling Capital, online gambling revenue in Europe is expected to grow by 19% this year, to US$99.5 billion gross gaming revenue (GGR). The growth in Europe’s online gambling market is expected to continue and be accelerated by the pandemic. Indeed, online GGR is expected to grow by around 9% per year and reach 41% of total gambling revenue in Europe by 2026, up from 26% in 2019. In addition, we see a fast increase in mobile gaming usage among consumers. Maarten Haijer, Secretary General, EGBA said that there is still significant scope for online development in markets such as France, Germany, Italy and Spain, where the online share of the total gambling market is still relatively small despite the online markets in these countries being relatively mature. Bragg Gaming Group (NASDAQ:BRAG) (TSX:BRAG), Penn National Gaming (NASDAQ:PENN), Scientific Games Corporation (NASDAQ:SGMS), Enthusiast Gaming Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:EGLX) (TSX:EGLX), and Bally’s Corporation (NYSE:BALY) are companies playing in the online gambling sphere.

Bragg also raised its full-year 2022 revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance to a Range of US$78-82 million and adjusted EBITDA ranging from US$10.8-12 million, reflecting a year-over-year growth of 21% and 43%, respectively.

 

“The ongoing execution of our iGaming content and platform expansion and new market initiatives are driving Bragg’s consistent operating momentum leading to near- and long-term financial growth,” said Yaniv Spielberg, Chief Strategy Officer for Bragg Gaming. “These factors contributed to stronger than expected financial results in the 2021 fourth quarter and as a result we now expect to exceed our previously provided guidance for full-year 2021 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA.”
