BetBull Releases Q3 Numbers
The company formerly known as Betbull plc, which is now Betbull Holding SE
recently released their financial statements for the third quarter of the year.
Their unaudited financial statements ended on September 30, 2008 and give full
disclosure to their 9 months in the online casino world. Some of their
highlights include an increase of 28 percent over this time last year in their
betting stakes, which brings them to Euro 74.0 million. Their gaming revenue was
also up 19 percent this year to an impressive Euro 11.7 million. The online
casino did however have some downs, they were down Euro 600,000 because of
EBITDA, which does include their merger with the Spanish company Bwin. Their
venture in Madrid also had some ups, they were total cash they had at the end of
September was 9.2 million, which means they were up Euro 1.2 million.
The company had a turnover of 74 million which leaves them at a steady
percentage of 28. The online casino’s management has reported that their
business is growing because they are being offered as a complimentary product
for some of their clients in the retail world. Betbull has officially set its
sights for Spain and Germany because they are very profitable markets for online
casinos. They are so certain that business in those two countries will take off
that they are shelving other projects in order to put full focus on this portion
of their business. They feel like these two regions will provide huge
opportunities for them and will pursue any and all resources that they are able
to get their hands on in that area.
The director of the online casino company has said of their year, "Betbull
achieved a solid trading result in the 9 months to 30 September; this has been
distorted somewhat by the group's investment in the Spanish market through the
Joint Venture company BBE, whose financial results are fully consolidated into
the foregoing accounts.” Then he added how their online casinos will prosper in
their new targeted areas, "The company continues to operate a tight financial
control and closely monitor costs. The concentration of resources on just 2
regions, Germany and Spain will help to streamline the company and we will
curtail operations not associated with these core areas during the coming
months."
