Gambling.com Group Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results and Raises 2024 Guidance

Gambling.com Group Limited (Nasdaq: GAMB) (“Gambling.com Group” or the “Company”), a fast-growing provider of digital marketing services for the global online gambling industry, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. The Company also raised its 2024 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance as detailed below.
“Our second quarter and year-to-date results highlight the incredible power of our high-intent audience and the clear value we create for our online gambling operator clients. Our team’s proven ability to dynamically manage our owned and operated assets to quickly address changes to the operating environment was evident in the second quarter’s strong topline and Adjusted EBITDA growth, and will continue to benefit us in the future,” commented Charles Gillespie, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Gambling.com Group. “As we continue to execute at a high level, expand our footprint in the online gambling ecosystem and leverage industry growth opportunities, we continue to see a clear path towards our goal of $100 million in annual Adjusted EBITDA. Our significant share repurchase activity in the first half of this year underscores our confidence in the future of the business.”
Elias Mark, Chief Financial Officer of Gambling.com Group added, “Our second quarter performance was driven by our team’s faster than expected re-calibration of our portfolio, leading to accelerated performance of our owned and operated assets. Year-over-year second quarter revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 18% and 19%, respectively, reflect very strong delivery of iGaming NDCs across Europe, including the United Kingdom, as well as resiliency in our North American business, against a challenging comparative prior-year period.”

Second Quarter 2024 Results Compared to Second Quarter 2023
Revenue rose 18% year-over-year to a second quarter record $30.5 million. The Company delivered more than 108,000 NDCs to customers, an increase of 19% year-over-year, even as the year-ago period benefited from atypically strong growth in U.S. sports betting NDCs, which did not recur this year.
Gross profit increased 16% to $29.1 million, including a $0.5 million increase in cost of sales related to the Company’s media partnerships.
Total operating expenses decreased 15% to $20.8 million, reflecting the elimination of fair value movement in contingent consideration and a modest decrease in general and administrative expenses, partially offset by increases in sales and marketing and technology expenses.
Net income attributable to shareholders rose from $0.3 million to $6.9 million and net income per share rose from $0.01 to $0.19. Adjusted net income increased 13% to $7.4 million and adjusted net income per share increased 18% to $0.20.
Adjusted EBITDA was $11.2 million, reflecting an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 37% as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $9.4 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 36%, in the year-ago period.
Operating cash flow of $0.2 million included $7.2 million for the final deferred consideration payment for the acquisition of BonusFinder. Absent the deferred consideration payment, operating cash flow would have been $7.4 million. Free Cash Flow was $6.0 million compared to $8.7 million in the year-ago period reflecting working capital movements and increased capital expenditures.
2024 Outlook
Gambling.com Group today updated its 2024 full-year revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance. The Company now expects full year revenue of $123 million to $127 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $44 million to $47 million. The midpoints of the new full year revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance ranges represent year-over-year growth of 15% and 24%, respectively. The Company’s updated outlook compares to the guidance provided on May 16, 2024 for revenue of $118 million to $122 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $40 million to $44 million.
The Company’s guidance assumes:
- No additional North American markets come online over the balance of 2024
- Apart from the completed acquisition of Freebets.com and related assets, no benefit from any additional acquisitions in 2024
- Full year cost of sales of approximately $6.5 million, of which $3.7 million was incurred in the first half of 2024
- An average EUR/USD exchange rate of 1.09 throughout 2024
