”We had a busy quarter with the Euro 2020 as the main focus for the Group. Operator Trading Index grew with 203%. Total revenues increased with 121% to SEKm 13.9. The active user base cross our network partners have continued to grow substantially. Compared to average monthly users of the second quarter last year we experienced a growth of 302%. Strategically, we strive to optimize our marketing to support long-term growth. We use the start of major events such as Premier League, Euros or World Cup as aggressive growth-drivers.
The market leading Norwegian operator Norsk Tipping has soft-launched, in connection to the Premier League start, after the Norwegian government signing a bill allowing real money gambling on fantasy sports products for the Norwegian market. Swedish ATG is expected to launch during the coming months.
We have after the quarter ended been able to demonstrate our live sportsbook offering on Fanteam, following a two-year trial with pre-match bets. With a limited cost base, built on a scalable modular tech framework, we are able to run the sportsbook operations alongside with the core DFS offering, without adding too much additional resources. From the start, this was built to optimize the seamless offering between traditional sportsbook and Fantasy Sports, something we now have been able to start demonstrating. We received requests from external operators wanting to evaluate our full sports offering and are expecting the first full B2B sports client to be beta launched later this year.”
