EveryMatrix set for another standout year with strong Q1 performance

Published

on

EveryMatrix has kicked off 2025 with powerful momentum, reporting a standout first quarter of exceptional revenue growth and profitability.

The tier-1 iGaming technology platform supplier delivered a very strong first quarter performance, with net revenue reaching €54 million, up 39% Year-on-Year (YoY), and EBITDA increasing to €28m, up 27% YoY, driven by strong growth from existing clients and innovative product launches.

EBITDA margin reached 52%, making it the eighth consecutive quarter above 50%, as the company continues to scale its platform and casino content technologies while maintaining strong financial discipline.

The last twelve months’ EBITDA reached €107m, up 50% YoY, building on 2024’s milestone achievement of surpassing €100 million in annual EBITDA.

Q1 MILESTONES SIGNAL POWERHOUSE YEAR AHEAD

A highlight of the first quarter was the successful migration of Bet600 – the first full turnkey FSB Technologies customer in the UK – to the EveryMatrix platform. The company aim remains to have all clients fully migrated in 2025 thereby realizing large cost synergies from this key acquisition.

EveryMatrix launched its cutting-edge proprietary Horse Racing solution by combining FSB’s proven knowledge and experience in Horse Racing with the innovation of OddsMatrix development teams. It provides global horse racing coverage with 10k+ monthly events, full system bets offering with bonusing capabilities and configurations and a purpose-built Horse Racing front end with rich Racecard content & live streaming integrations among some of the features.

A landmark deal was signed to deliver a full casino turnkey platform solution to SkyCity Entertainment Group.  SkyCity is one of New Zealand’s largest entertainment companies owning five land-based casinos across both NZ and Australia and the online casino brand SkyCitycasino.com. SkyCity migrates from their current provider to EveryMatrix later this year.

SPORTS SURGE AND STRONG CASINO & PLATFORM GROWTH

Q1 2025 saw the company’s sports division deliver exceptional growth, with quarterly sports turnover rising 30% YoY to €1.7b, while GGR climbing 60% YoY to €154m on the back of continued strong trading margins. The last twelve months (LTM) turnover hit €6.3b, reflecting a 48% YoY increase, with GGR rising by 92% YoY to €505m. Part of the growth came from reaching a record number of nearly 600,000 live events, a 24% YoY increase.

Casino experienced the strongest quarterly financial results to date, with net revenue climbing to €28.6m, up 44% YoY, while EBITDA reached €16.8m, up 29% YoY. Casino GGR reached €753m, a 22% YoY increase, with the LTM reaching €2.9b, a 38% YoY increase.

GamMatrix, the company’s Gaming and Player Account Management Platform, experienced a net revenue increase of €8.6m, up 18% YoY, while EBITDA landed at €2.4m, a 23% decrease YoY. The decrease in EBITDA margin is related to a change in internal revenue allocation.

Ebbe Groes, Group CEO of EveryMatrix, said: “I’m very excited for 2025. Q1 was a solid quarter, a great start, and the rest of the year looks just as promising. We had a phenomenal year in 2024, which will be hard to beat, but thanks to the momentum we’ve set in motion during the last few years, I’m sure we’ll be able to do it.

“Our sports division never ceases to amaze me, breaking record after record. This quarter, we managed to reach 600,000 live events, all thanks to our ability to expand our coverage and add new products and features even while experiencing this much continuous growth.”

In a landmark announcement set to reshape the future of entertainment, content, and technology, Proper Loud – the powerhouse team that has carved the path to success and helped bring to life ventures including Prime (Hydration & Energy), Misfits Boxing, The Baller League, and Lunchly – has entered into a global partnership with innovative prediction market platform Galactic.
Predictor.io marks the pioneering socially-driven prediction market platform, fusing real-time audience engagement with gamified, predictive experiences – powered by some of the world’s biggest digital creators and content brands.
Galactic, already well-established through key partnerships with media giants such as Sports Illustrated, has further bolstered its U.S. presence by advancing partnerships and discussions with both a Futures Commission Merchant (FCM) and a Designated Contract Market (DCM). These alliances are intended to strengthen Galactic’s regulatory and compliance path across North America, reinforcing its commitment to operating within the highest industry standards pending formal registration and approvals.
This bold new platform will allow fans to engage with creator-driven content like never before – predicting outcomes, competing in live challenges, and becoming active participants in sports, entertainment, and trending culture. Backed by cutting-edge tech, ongoing regulatory preparations, and unmatched creator influence, the venture is poised to redefine how the next generation interacts with content.
Mams Taylor, Founder of Proper Loud, shared: “This is a truly unique partnership bringing together the biggest content creators on the planet and world-class prediction market technology. We’re building something completely new – a platform where fans aren’t just watching, they’re participating in the outcome.”
Stuart Stott, CEO of Galactic, added: “This marks an industry first of its kind – bringing socially-driven content and the world’s biggest creators into one of the fastest-growing markets on Earth. The prediction market and creator economy are experiencing significant growth and, by combining these two forces, we can transform how audiences interact and engage with content. By empowering creators with new monetisation opportunities and providing fans with real-time, interactive experiences, we’re not just predicting the future – we’re helping shape it, making the future of content more engaging, inclusive and rewarding for everyone.”
By blending entertainment, prediction, and social influence, this joint platform is set to be a game-changer across sports, music, lifestyle and creator economies. The launch is expected to roll out in phases starting later this year, subject to regulatory clearances, with exclusive creator-led campaigns and real-time fan activations.
