Land-based casino operator Groupe Partouche reported a 490.4% year-on-year increase in revenue for the second quarter of its 2021-22 financial year, following the reopening of its casino properties.
Gross gaming revenue for the three months through to 30 April 2022 amounted to €148.2m ($154.5m), up from €35.1m in the same period in 2020-21.
This sharp increase was due to the reopening of land-based casinos in France following the easing of novel coronavirus (Covid-19) measures. French casinos were closed in Q2 of 2020-21 as a result of Covid-19 restrictions, while its Swiss properties only opened towards the end of the period and its sole casino on Tunisia operated with a 10pm curfew.
