US online gambling platform provider Contagious Gaming had news that was good only in parts for investors this week, reporting that revenues in its fiscal third quarter soared 214 percent quarter-on-quarter to $678,700.
However there was a definite downside to the announcement as well – EBITDA fell again as the company recorded a loss of $272,600, albeit not as bad as the preceding quarter’s when losses amounted to $456,363.
Adjusted earnings also remained under pressure, too – again down at $696,300 after the previous quarter’s loss of $771,400.
CEO Peter Glancy remains upbeat, observing that the revenue increase was a positive sign, and adding:
“This improvement is primarily due to the closing of the Digitote acquisition in December 2015. We look forward to further expected improvement of our financial metrics as we report a full quarter of consolidated financials including Digitote’s results.”
Contagious acquired developer and provider of commercial-grade sports betting and horse racing technology Digitote last year in a deal worth $5.2 million (see previous report).
