Q216 trading update - firmly on track

GVC’s July 2016 trading update reveals its early progress after its February acquisition of bwin.party has continued into Q216. Q2 net gaming revenue (NGR) per day rose by 11% y-o-y on a pro-forma basis (+16% on a constant currency basis). Pro-forma H116 NGR was up 8% to €439m (+11% CC) with both GVC and bwin brands delivering growth. Recent operational progress has included a successful application to the Premium Segment of the LSE. Forthcoming challenges to be navigated include the H216 platform migration. However, we believe GVC’s positive update underpins our full-year forecasts, which remain unchanged.
