Ep 361: Playtech shows an old boy can still learn new tricks


Listen Later

Playtech, recognised as the ‘old boy’ of igaming, captured industry headlines following positive commercial developments and clever deal-making. On Monday (1 October), the LSE-listed gambling software development company announced its H1 interim results, assuring investors that it is on track to meet its 2024 EBITDA targets.


And this is the topic for the latest episode of iGaming Daily, supported by Optimove. Viktor Kayed, Senior Journalist for SBC News, is joined by SBC’s Content Director, Ted Menmuir, to delve deeper into the results as well as discuss Playtech’s premium sale of its Italian business, Snaitech, Playtech’s ambitions and the resolution of its revised technology and services agreement with Mexican joint-venture Caliplay.

Towards the end of the episode, the duo also consider if this is the dawn of a new and sensible Playtech and if by shedding its B2C wings, the firm can return to the lofty heights and valuations of the 2000s and early 2010s.
