Every quarter the researchers of the Online Gambling Quarterly have a look at the revenue figures of various iGaming companies ranging from operators and IT/service providers to affiliate companies and even cumulated figures of entire markets (e.g., France, Denmark, …). In most cases the figures used are net revenues; however, in a few cases net revenues were not reported, and therefore the analysts took gross revenues or turnover instead.

In many cases the YoY growth rates are exceptionally high due to acquisitions made in a previous quarter – an effect that carries through for consecutive quarters after the acquisition. Therefore, several leading companies in the YoY growth benchmarking have those top positions more or less due to acquisitions made within the 12 months before the analysis. The researchers at Online Gambling Quarterly have therefore decided to also analyse quarter-on-quarter growth (QoQ) benchmarks as well. Those growth rates might be impacted by seasonal effects (e.g., football season vs. no football season) and other changes, but these figures can provide a quick, current overview of the most recent growth dynamics while excluding effects of acquisitions in previous quarters.
• Average growth – On average, revenues changed in Q2/2019 (compared to the previous quarter Q1/2019 – QoQ) by +1%.
