Entain, the global sports betting and gaming group, has reported interim results for the six-month period ended June 30.
Total group net gaming revenue, including the 50 per cent share of BetMGM, was up six per cent. Online NGR (excluding the US) was up nine per cent.
The H1 results reflected underlying Q2 outperformance and stronger than expected win margins for the Euros.
Stella David, interim CEO and chair designate, commented: ”Entain’s H1 results are clear evidence that our hard work improving the group’s operational performance is bearing fruit.
"While there is more work to do, we are pleased with the progress so far and look forward to building further on these solid foundations in H2 and beyond.
"Our focused execution underpins the group’s performance so far this year and we are excited by the opportunities ahead.
"I look forward to welcoming Gavin Isaacs as our new CEO and supporting him as we continue to build on the group’s improving operational momentum.”
