New online gaming law helps Holland Casino

Holland Casino chalked up higher total revenues in the first half of 2022 than it did in the whole of last year, the company reported yesterday.

Online gaming – newly legal in the Netherlands – brought the company €82.8m in revenue, around 25 per cent of its total revenue for the half-year. Total revenues, said the company, were €353.5m as against €304.2m for all of last year.

Commented Noel Leise, director of operations: “We see that our online guests continue to appreciate our offer despite the increasing competition. We therefore expect a positive year.

“Of course, that still depends on the Covid developments in the autumn and how quickly we can have enough employees in the tight labour market.

But these half-year figures again form a promising basis. In the coming six months, we will continue to build a stable, responsible and future-proof company with renewed energy.”

EBITDA was €40m and pre-tax profit €8.2m.
