Paris, 15th September 2021, 06:00 pm - Groupe Partouche, one of the European gaming leaders, published today its consolidated turnover for the 3 rd quarter of 2021 (May – July 2021)
The Group's activities gradually resumed during the third quarter, after the cessation of most of them throughout the first half of the year due to the Covid 19 pandemic:
As a result, in the 3rd quarter of 2021, the Gross Games Revenue (GGR) reached € 151.5 m compared to € 109.1m (+ 38.8%) a year earlier, and € 164.6 m in 2019 (- 8.0%) which benefited from normal operation.
In France, the GGR stood at € 112.3 m, up + 27.8%, with slot machines and traditional games increasing by +28.4% and + 24.9% respectively. The GGR of electronic games follows the same trend at + 23.4%.
The growth momentum of the GGR, despite a higher number of operating days (74 days during the 3rd quarter of 2021 against 60 days in 2020) was however penalized by curfews and then by the introduction of the Health Pass as from the 21st July.
During July that was the only month in which all games were operated, attendance, which had increased by + 9.8% since 1st July, fell by -27.4% over the last 11 days of the month. This effect was however offset by the increase in the average basket (+ 21.6% from 21st July against + 5.5% since 1 st July).
1 Note : variations are calculated with respect to the same reference period of the previous year, unless otherwise stated.
The same trend continued in August, with however less impact on the attendance as the Health Pass spread to other activities and vaccination progressed.
Abroad, the GGR increased by + 84.2% to € 39.2 m, driven by the very strong increase in the GGR for online games and sports betting in Belgium and online games in Switzerland (+ 101.2%).
After levies, that were stable at + 0.3% due to the progressive scale in France and to the low levy rate applying to online games and sports betting in Belgium, the Net Gaming Revenue (NGR) came to € 98.5 m (+ 74.9%).
Overall, 3rd quarter revenue rebounded to € 114.2 m, up + 73.1% compared to the 3rd quarter of 2020 and + 8.9% compared to 2019.
Despite this very satisfactory performance, taking into account the 6 months of closure over the period November - July 2021, the aggregate turnover for 9 months, at € 161.4 m, fell by -35.3%, with a decrease of - 30.7% of the NGR at € 142.8 m.
Turnover 4th quarter 2021: Wednesday 15th December 2021, after stock market closure. Income at 31st October 2021: Wednesday 26 th January 2022, after stock market closure.
