In the year 2020, Better Collective, an affiliate in the sports wagering industry, experienced remarkable expansion. Their financial gain surged by 35% to €91.2 million (approximately $110.9 million), accompanied by a robust natural expansion rate of 8%. This signifies they generated significantly more income, with a substantial portion originating from their current ventures rather than solely through mergers.
Their earnings (EBITDA) also escalated by 34% to €36.6 million, while the monetary flow from their operations rose by a healthy 44% to €38.3 million. Essentially, they were accumulating greater profits and retaining a larger share.
They also succeeded in attracting over 437,000 new patrons to wagering platforms, aligning with their achievements in 2019.
The concluding quarter of 2020 proved particularly fruitful for Better Collective. Their revenue soared by 88% to €36.7 million, with a 32% natural expansion rate. This was partially attributed to their incorporation of Atemi Group, which appears to have been a prudent decision given the seamless integration.
