Highlights of the second quarter of 2024
CASINOS
The Casino division’s results for the third quarter of 2024 reflect a continued positive trend, driven by ongoing improvement compared to the previous quarter. The roadmap set out in recent years remains focused on the selective renovation of facilities, having remodeled several establishments throughout this quarter and renewed the machine park to improve the service offering for our customers. Likewise, the division continues with the strict execution of commercial plans and expense control policies, to offset inflationary increases mainly in LATAM countries.

The division continues to yield excellent results, both in terms of income and EBITDA, supported by a management model that focuses on the player, offering models that optimize customer satisfaction and product performance and specifically the Unidesa models “Manhattan Boom” and “Pyramid Cash Bar”.
Expense control and the achievement of commercial objectives underpin the strong results in the quarter.

The organization in Italy remains focused on continued product improvement, space design, service and staff, as well as cost control, which will be decisive factors to achieve the objectives in the last quarter of 2024.
ONLINE GAMING AND BETTING
The results of the online gaming and sports betting division were favorable in the quarter compared to the previous year, with significant growth in both volume and margin. The completion of the acquisition of Apuesta Total in Peru, boosted the division’s results, reinforcing the strategy of expanding the business in regulated markets.
