WOOD Flash – OPAP: 2Q22 numbers in line, interim DPS at EUR 0.30 (above expectations)

OPAP has issued a unaudited press release, with its 2Q22 numbers. The quarterly performance was broadly in line with our expectations, with retail witnessing a solid recovery, post the lifting of the COVID-19 restrictions. The GGR performance was defensive on a qoq basis, with gambling activity remaining, so far, resilient vs. inflationary pressure, in our view. The company also announced an interim DPS of EUR 0.30, higher than expectations (our DPS estimate: EUR 0.20).
