on

BRAGG GAMING GROUP REPORTS RECORD SECOND QUARTER RESULTS AS REVENUE RISES 34.2% TO €20.8 MILLION (USD $21.3 MILLION)

 

First quarter revenue increases 62 per cent and Adjusted EBITDA increases by 234 per cent

2021 revenue guidance maintained at €47M

Accelerating rollout of proprietary in-house developed slot content

B2B gaming technology and content provider Bragg Gaming Group today released its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

“We’ve continued to build on the strong momentum of 2020 with an excellent first quarter,” said Richard Carter, CEO of Bragg Gaming. “Revenue is up by 62 per cent year-over-year and Adjusted EBITDA increased by 234 per cent. We’ve also seen a 54 per cent increase in the number of unique players using Bragg content, have launched nine new operators and our customer pipeline for the remainder of 2021 is expected to continue to grow and expand globally, underpinning future company growth in 2021.

“We continue to invest in our employees, our technology and our product offering, and this has allowed us to commercialise our in-house casino content studio, with our first game recently launched across our network,” continued Mr. Carter. “With further in-house casino games and player engagement tools scheduled for upcoming release, and our acquisition of Spin Games LLC laying the foundation for our strategy of building a tier one vertically integrated iGaming business in the U.S., Bragg Gaming has never been better positioned for long-term success.”

Q1 2021 financial highlights

  • Revenue increased by 62 per cent to €14.2M (C$20.9M[1]) in the first quarter of 2021, compared to €8.8M (C$12.9M) for the first quarter of 2020, maintaining quarterly growth momentum since Q1 2019
  • Quarter-over-quarter revenue increase of 3 per cent, from €13.8M (C$20.3M) in the fourth quarter of 2020 to €14.2M (C$20.9M) in the first quarter of 2021

  • Gross profit increased by 68 per cent to €6.6M (C$9.8M), compared to €4.0M (C$5.8M) with an increase in margins from 45 per cent to 47 per cent, mainly attributed to the shift in proportion of revenues from games and content to iGaming and turn-key services, the latter of which have lower associated cost of sales
  • Net loss for the period was €1.1M (C$1.6M), a decrease of €4.6M (C$6.8M) from Q1 2020, mainly due to the full settlement of the ORYX earn-out on January 18, 2020, resulting in nil expenditure from re-measurement of deferred and contingent consideration and accretion on liabilities in the current quarter (Q1 2020: €5.0m)
  • Adjusted EBITDA[4] was €2.3M (C$3.4M) in Q1 2021, up 234 per cent compared to €0.7M (C$1.0M) in Q1 2020, with an increase in margins from 8 per cent to 16 per cent, primarily as a result of higher scale
  • Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2021 increased to €30.1M (C$44.3M) compared to €26.1M as of December 31, 2020 (C$38.4M)

No fooling! The All-Inclusive Hotel Room Package is back for summer stays at the Plaza Hotel & Casino

Published

on

Tomorrow might be April Fool’s Day but this is no joke, the Plaza Hotel & Casino is bringing back Las Vegas’ only all-inclusive hotel room package starting at $125 per person per night.

The Plaza introduced its all-inclusive hotel room package last summer. It was so well received by guests that the iconic downtown Las Vegas property is bringing it back and extending it for all of June, July and August.

“At a time when tourists are concerned about increasing costs in Las Vegas, including resort fees and paying to park, we wanted to give our guests a more affordable summer vacation option by again offering our all-inclusive hotel room package,” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel & Casino.

The Plaza’ all-inclusive hotel room package waives all resort fees, but guests will still have free access to the fitness center, self-parking, and rooftop pool. It also includes bottomless drinks from the Omaha Bar and Sports Book Bar on the casino floor as well as breakfast and dinner from various dining outlets, and more.

The Plaza’s all-inclusive hotel room package is available for booking beginning today. Rooms must be booked online by Aug. 29 for a stay June 1 through Aug. 30.

Jogo da Zebra: The Most Thrilling Version of the Classic Minesweeper Arrives from Vibra Gaming

Jogo da Zebra: The Most Thrilling Version of the Classic Minesweeper Arrives from Vibra Gaming

 

Vibra Gaming, the leading game and platform developer in the LatAm market, unveils its latest and most exciting release: Jogo da Zebra, a high-adrenaline experience where every click can multiply your winnings. Designed especially for the Brazilian audience, this game reimagines the classic Minesweeper with visuals and gameplay that resonate with local culture.

The game unfolds on a 5×5 grid with 25 hidden tiles. Players can choose how much to bet and how many zebras will appear on the board, directly influencing the level of risk and potential rewards.

To win, players click on the tiles to reveal golden squares, increasing their bet multiplier. At any moment, they can cash out and secure their winnings before encountering a zebra.

The game also incorporates innovative mechanics to enhance the excitement. By selecting the number of hidden zebras on the board (from 1 to 20), players can adjust the difficulty and raise the prize multiplier as they progress. Additionally, if a zebra is revealed followed by a heart, the game grants an extra life, allowing the player to continue without ending the round. This unique feature adds a new layer of thrill and strategy, as only one extra life can be earned per game.

Jogo da Zebra also includes a Turbo Button, which speeds up tile reveals for a more dynamic gaming experience. A Cash Out button allows players to stop and collect their winnings before risking another click.

Ramiro Atucha, CEO of Vibra Gaming, commented: Jogo da Zebra combines the nostalgia of a classic with captivating gameplay and big rewards. It’s the perfect game for thrill-seekers who enjoy risk, where every click can make a difference in winning big. We developed it with the Brazilian audience in mind, incorporating a local theme that connects with their culture and gaming preferences.”
