Ep 231: 888 'Evokes' change & Flutter suffer losses in the billions

iGaming Daily

A busy morning saw markets updated with the respective full-year 2023 results of gambling giants Flutter Entertainment and 888 Holdings.

Flutter's revenue is going from strength to strength across most of its markets following a business transformation in 2023. Yet Flutter’s stellar metrics are dragged by corporate losses of $1.2bn.

Meanwhile, 888 is now undergoing a proposed rebrand to become Evoke, as part of its Value Creation plan, as revenue for the operator improved driven by a shift away from dot com markets.

Once more, 888 posts consecutive year losses of £56m – as all eyes turn to how new CEO, Per Widerström, will turn around corporate performance and value.

Joining CasinoBeats Senior Editor, Conor Porter, to discuss the above, is CasinoBeats Editor, Joe Streeter, and Ted Menmuir, Content Director at SBC News.
