Allwyn has posted revenue of €2.3bn (£1.9bn) in Q2 2025, following the release of the lottery operator’s unaudited financial results for the three months ending 30 June.
The company’s topline figure marks a 6% year-on-year (YoY) rise when pitted against the second quarter of last year.
Of that revenue total, €2.2bn was attributed as gross gaming revenue (GGR), with that metric also recording an uptick of 6% YoY.
Within the reporting period, net revenue totalled €994m, again rising 6% YoY against the €942m generated in Q2 2024.
Breaking revenue down by vertical, Allwyn’s UK segment was the most profitable, amassing €1.1bn, which marks a 7% uptick.
Greece and Cyprus followed behind in second with revenue of €559m, representing 5% YoY growth.
Efforts in Austria generated €403m in revenue, up 4% YoY, while the Czech Republic contributed €133m to the topline total, an improvement of 9% against Q2 2024’s performance.
Revenue from Allwyn’s North America, technology and content segment was recorded at €54m, down 7% YoY from €58m.
Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter followed an identical trajectory to group-wide revenue, climbing 6% YoY to €362m, alongside a corresponding margin of 36.4%.
Robert Chvatal, Allwyn CEO, reflected on another quarter of single-digit growth, hailing the operator’s online performance, which saw online GGR increase 16% YoY to account for 42% of the company’s entire GGR total.
He said: “This excellent performance reflected our focus on growth in the digital channel, alongside the dedication of our teams across markets to enhancing the customer proposition and the player experience.
“As always, we delivered this growth while maintaining our commitment to player safety and upholding our responsibilities to all stakeholders.
“We achieved good profitability growth, with adjusted EBITDA increasing 6% year on year, supported by solid performances in Austria and Greece and Cyprus in addition to another quarter of strong growth from our significant equity method investees.”
Chvatal continued, homing in on Allwyn’s UK efforts, which received a boost outside of the reporting period, adding: “After the end of the quarter, we are delighted to have reached a key milestone in our strategy to transform The National Lottery in the UK, successfully bringing over 30 new systems online, including transitioning to a new central lottery system, as well as activating new terminals for around 8,000 retail partners. This was one of the largest lottery transitions ever delivered.”
Elsewhere, Allwyn’s Italy operations were handed a boost in May when the Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli (ADM) awarded the next Italian lottery licence to the LottoItalia consortium, of which Allwyn boasts a 32.5% stake.
The consortium, which will hold the licence until 2034, is spearheaded by IGT and also includes Novomatic Italia and Arianna 2001.
