For the first quarter of 2023, PointsBet generated a revenue total in excess of 115 million Australian dollars!
PointsBet posted revenue of $72.9 million for Q1 2023, a 2% decrease from last year’s figure and the company says it is “on track” to meet its target overall this quarter despite an unexpected drop in betting transactions during warmer weather months which has traditionally been when people gamble most heavily due on their moods or boredom with life at home (and work).
The gross win margin also declined, dropping 2% to a level of 10%.
PointsBet is doing well, but its iGaming services are faring even better. The company’s net profit for sports betting was up 4% at $70 million while its online casino saw287 percent more money come in!
The company’s total net profit for the first half of this year reached 78.8 million Australian dollars, up 13% from last period’s numbers!
PointsBet has had mixed success in the US, with some successes and failures.
The handle was up 18% to AU$1 billion for Q1 2023 but there were still many obstacles on their path towards financial independence as a company that operates exclusively online through an international network of websites under its license from Australia’s gambling commission ACGA ( attaching summary below).
Handle in the US rose 50% to AU$523.8m for Q1 2023, but figures were down 24% relative to last quarter when there were fewer high-profile sporting events running over that period of time.
This might explain why total revenue increased by less than 10%, as several big name sports players took off during this particular reporting period.
The growth in profits for sports betting site PointsBet was 78% higher than last year, despite lower net yearly earnings. This is likely due to the fact that they rely more heavily on seasonal trends and European soccer games than US-based teams have done up until now.
The iGaming industry in the US is booming, and PointsBet has seen its fastest growth rates since last year. In fact their numbers were so good that they exceeded expectations by 229%! The increase quarter-over-quarter was also an impressive 8%.
The PointsBet handle in Australia saw a 3% decline from last year’s numbers. The company generated $73 million during Q1, which is 17% less than what it did at the end of 2020 and 8%.
It seems that there has been some impact on their business due to increased regulation by Australian gambling commissions – something we’ve seen happen with other companies as well recently (e..g Malta).
The team at PointsBet did not let their North American counterparts spoil the party, with increased profits seen in Canada.
The company launched last year and was already making waves by turning around 14% less profit than expected; however this changed when they found success there – proving that no matter where you go there will always be people ready for some good old-fashioned gambling!
The iGaming market continues its upward trajectory as well, with revenue up by 96% in the company’s latest financial results.
Glow in the dark? PointsBet’s success is so bright that it’s hard to see where their gains end. They have won over 1 million dollars worth of bets on Canadian football alone, an 887% increase from last year!
