CEO comment
“Q2 2025 proved to be a quarter that reflected both the resilience of our business and the evolving dynamics of our industry. While results were in line with our expectations, they came against a backdrop of challenging market conditions and tough comparisons with Q2 2024.

Last year’s quarter benefited from the uplift of the Euros and Copa América and included the last full quarter of transition fees from Penn Entertainment. Meanwhile, challenging dynamics include foreign exchange movements and regulatory and tax headwinds, such as deposit limits in the Netherlands and Colombia’s VAT, which continue to affect performance.

Operator trading margin was 11.5% for the quarter, above our long-term expected range of 9.5–11.0%, as we continued to see strong engagement with our market-leading Bet Builder, which is a higher margin, lower staking product. Despite these impacts, Q2 was a period of solid operational progress across various areas of the business. Additionally, the continuation of our 2025 efficiency programme can now start to be seen in our cost base and will continue to drive increased leverage throughout the year.

From a commercial perspective, we were delighted to extend our partnership with LeoVegas Group through a new two-year Turnkey Sportsbook agreement. We also expanded this relationship through an Odds Feed+ deal, with LeoVegas becoming our fourth partner since launching the product in Q3 2024. While Turnkey partner churn is an inevitable part of the business, it is encouraging to see our product portfolio evolving in ways that now enable us to retain partners through our more extensive product offering.

We continue to diversify our revenue base, illustrated not only by the Odds Feed+ deal but the recent Turnkey Sportsbook signing of RedCap in Latin America, expanding our reach in the region. RedCap will initially launch its Betpro and Starplay brands online in Panama and El Salvador, with scope to expand into retail and additional markets in the future. RedCap will be transitioning from a competing supplier, underlining our position as the home of premium sports betting solutions.

Our esports betting product, powered by our Abios division, is also becoming an increasingly important part of our product offering. Esports via the Turnkey continues to grow in popularity and in Q2 was the fifth largest ‘sport’ across the global network based on turnover. We believe we have a leading esports product, one that’s not only proving its worth on the Turnkey but is fast becoming a unique selling point for our Odds Feed+ product, with few operators possessing this capability in-house.

While the first half of the year played out broadly as expected, I want to reiterate that I am not satisfied with where we are at today, with my ambition for the business being far greater. Looking ahead to the rest of the year, the external environment will continue to pose challenges, but I remain optimistic that we can increasingly deliver value for our partners, expand our partner network, strengthen our product portfolio and position the business for long-term, sustainable growth.”

Gamblers Connect, the award-winning iGaming affiliate and media platform, officially announced the launch of two new partner-focused destinations on its website: the Game Providers section and the B2B Providers section.

These hubs are designed to give verified partners richer exposure, clearer positioning, and a single home for comprehensive company profiles, reviews, and work highlights.

Gamblers Connect has specially curated profiles for official Game Provider partners, featuring company history, entertainment categories, flagship titles, and direct links to online casinos where their games are available. Profiles also showcase notable projects and media mentions, with direct navigation to games, categories, and live operator placements. To extend reach, partners enjoy ongoing amplification through Gamblers Connect’s media network and communications channels.

The B2B Providers Section provides in-depth profiles and reviews for official B2B partners—covering background, core services, market presence, and notable projects—built to help operators, studios, and peers evaluate capabilities at a glance. Unlike standard directories, these hubs serve as an exclusive showcase, designed to provide clarity, context, and visibility for partners while helping decision-makers connect with the right collaborators.

Gjorgje Ristikj, Founder of Gamblers Connect, said: “These hubs for Game Providers and B2B Companies are not just pages, they are powerful tools that help partners tell their story and reach decision-makers. Our goal is simple: to make it easier for the industry to discover, compare, and connect.”

Favbet opened a new opportunity for the market in the live segment. Without waiting for audience demand, the company shaped it itself, introducing its own branded live studio powered by Spinner. This proactive step secured Favbet’s reputation as an innovator that sets standards and creates trends.

The project was entrusted to Spinner — a modern and ambitious B2B provider with Ukrainian DNA and technological expertise, capable of delivering a fully branded studio in the state language. The partnership united shared values, high standards, and a clear understanding that players choose content closest and most relatable to them.

The studio’s atmosphere reflects Ukrainian character and hospitality. Hosts communicate in a relaxed manner, respond in real time, keep conversations flowing, and add light humor. It is a place players come not only for the game but also for live interaction and a sense of community.

Deep customization, Ukrainian-speaking hosts, and instant support create the comfort level every Favbet user deserves. Demand has grown so rapidly that in just one year the number of tables doubled from six to twelve.

Most importantly, these games are available exclusively on Favbet’s website and mobile applications.
