Our second quarter results, ex-US included record revenue and solid Operational EBITDA of €82.6 million. Our monthly active customer numbers continue to show momentum reaching 3.7 million which we believe is a key driver for future growth.
Achieving scale in each of our markets, combined with driving cost efficiencies throughout the business remains our focus for long-term growth and bringing us back to a consistent ex-US EBITDA margin from operations of greater than 20%. With regards to the US, the business is tracking in line with expectations, and we are confident in our strategy.

The Q2 results for Super Group in North America were disappointing for the quarter and translated to a decrease in revenue of 4% in the same period as last year falling to €137 million from €142 million. Senior leadership at the group pointed to the tough changes in gambling regulations in Canada as the main reason for the decline in quarterly revenue.

The European revenue for the second quarter in 2023 showed strong revenues of €57.1 million which is up from €30.5 million for the same quarter in 2022, a rise of 47% in a direct comparison.

When combined, the Africa and Middle Eastern regions achieved a good 42% year-on-year rise in revenue showing €110.3 million in Q2 this year up from the Q2 2022 figure of €63.5 million.

Super Group has delivered financial results that reflect our ongoing focus on both an optimized global footprint and investment in long-term growth. This quarter’s strong revenue performance has delivered enhanced economies of scale in multiple markets, resulting in significant year-over-year growth in operational EBITDA, ex-US.
