Greek gambling group OPAP reported a record €2.3 billion (£1.93 billion/$2.5 billion) in gross gaming revenue (GGR) during its 2024 financial year, helped by growth within both its betting and igaming segments.
Revenue for the year ending 31 December 2024 surpassed the previous year, and existing record, by 10%. Data published by OPAP yesterday (19 March) also revealed a 9.4% uplift in net gaming revenue to €1.57 billion.
OPAP reported growth in four of its five core segments, including double-digit increases in betting and igaming revenue. Lottery, still the group’s primary source of revenue, and video lottery terminals (VLTs) also saw growth, but instant and passives revenue declined.
The online segment stole the show, posting a 29.2% increase in revenue for 2024. The division is now on track to surpass VLTs as OPAP’s third-largest revenue stream. However, there was also a lot to be said for sports betting, with revenue here up 15.6% year-on-year.
