bet-at-home.com AG: Group figures for the first quarter 2023
Düsseldorf, 22 May 2023. The bet-at-home.com AG Group announces its first quarter 2023 financial results. Major developments in the first quarter 2023 In early February, after several months of preparation, the Malta-licensed offering (domain .com) of bet-at-home.com Internet Ltd. was launched on the well-known outsourced platform iGaming of the software provider EveryMatrix. The customers can benefit from a much broader betting offering, numerous new functionalities and attractive bonuses. The outsourcing of the German-licensed platform to www.bet-at-home.de will be completed in the nearest future. Over the course of the 2023 financial year, the bet-at-home.com AG Group intends to have key corporate functions performed by the outsourcing partner, and the Group will focus exclusively on customer-relevant components that cannot be sourced or operated externally. The outsourcing order volume will be based on the net gaming revenue generated from online sports betting and is expected to reach a low single-digit million Euro per year going forward.
Revenue development in the first quarter 2023 Gross betting and gaming revenue in the first quarter 2023 amounted to EUR 13.3 million, which is 5.1% lower than in the first quarter 2022 (1Q 2022: EUR 14.0 million). This resulted mainly from regulatory developments in the core market of Germany, namely due to comprehensive implementation of cross-product monthly betting limits starting from July 1, 2022.
Earnings development in the first quarter 2023 Personnel expenses decreased by 43.7% year-on-year to EUR 2.5 million, due to two successive restructuring programs implemented in the 2022 financial year. Marketing expenses declined to EUR 2.7 million, which is 21.9% below the level of the first quarter 2022 (1Q 2022: EUR 3.5 million). This year the marketing focus will be made on advertising measures to the start of the football season 2023/2024 in the second half 2023, accompanied by the launch of a new German-licensed offering at www.bet-at-home.de. Other operating expenses in the first quarter 2023 amounted to EUR 3.5 million compared to EUR 5.1 million in the first quarter 2022.
EBITDA in the first quarter 2023 stood at EUR 1.8 million (1Q 2022: EUR -1.4 million).
Stable asset and capital structure The Group’s consolidated equity as of March 31, 2023 totalled EUR 29.7 million (December 31, 2022: EUR 28.9 million). Cash and cash equivalents within the bet-at-home.com AG Group increased to EUR 37.6 million as of March 31, 2023 (December 31, 2022: EUR 35.3 million).
Outlook for the 2023 financial year The Management Board continues to expect the bet-at-home.com AG Group to generate gross betting and gaming revenue in the range of EUR 50 million and EUR 60 million and EBITDA in the range of EUR -3 million and EUR 1 million in the 2023 financial year.
