The group reported a 14% increase in Total Group Net Gaming Revenue (NGR), including contributions from its US venture, BetMGM. The performance underscores Entain\u2019s resilience and adaptability in a competitive and regulatory dynamic market.<\/p>\n<h2>Financial and Operational Highlights<\/h2>\n<p>The company celebrated a noteworthy uptick in Online NGR, which rose by 12%, though proforma adjustments show a slight decline. This was offset by a commendable 23% growth in online active customers and a 9% increase in Retail NGR, bolstered by acquisitions in New Zealand and Poland. BetMGM, a key player in Entain\u2019s portfolio, showcased a stellar performance with a 36% year-on-year NGR increase, aligning with the upper end of projections.<\/p>\n<p>On the financial front, Entain reported a modest 1% increase in reported Group EBITDA, reaching \u00a31,008 million. Despite facing regulatory challenges, particularly in Australia, the group managed an adjusted profit after tax of \u00a3339 million. However, a group loss after tax of \u00a3879 million was reported, primarily due to a Deferred Prosecution Agreement settlement and impairment charges.<\/p>\n<h2>Strategic Initiatives and Market Expansion<\/h2>\n<p>2023 also saw Entain doubling down on strategic priorities, focusing on organic growth, expanding online margins, and capturing a larger share of the US market. Notably, the group\u2019s acquisition of STS Holdings and a 25-year partnership with TAB NZ signify Entain\u2019s ambition to cement its presence in Central and Eastern Europe and New Zealand, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Entain\u2019s commitment to sustainability and responsible gaming remains unwavering, with all revenue now deriving from regulated or regulating markets. This adherence to high standards has been recognized across the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) spectrum.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/betus\/\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"BetUS\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/BetUS.png.webp\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/betus\/\" title=\"BetUS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">BetUS<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong><strong>Get 125% \/ $2,500 on 1st deposit!<\/strong><\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only.
