Betsson delivered a robust Q2 2025, posting a 12% year-on-year revenue increase. Yet despite the solid numbers, the company’s share price dropped more than 15% following the results.

Speaking with NEXT.io, CEO Pontus Lindwall remains unfazed.

“It’s a strong report — actually our second-best quarter ever, only behind last year’s record-breaking Q4,” Lindwall said. “From a performance perspective, the numbers speak for themselves.”

Lindwall attributes the market reaction not to any fundamental weakness, but to timing. “Our shares have performed very well — with around 40% growth over the past 12 months. That’s been a sustained run, and perhaps some investors chose this moment to cash in their gains.”
