Key Takeaways

  • Revenues overall declined 13%.
  • A strategy of concentrating on lower risk regulated markets is leading to losses as the company withdraws from several countries.
  • Mobile growth of 53% provided a bright spot in the report.

Betfair published disappointing quarterly results Thursday, which showed a 13% fall in revenues ascribed to its “focus on sustainable markets, the impact of regulation and absence of a major football tournament in the period.”
