Leading sports betting technology company Kambi set lofty targets in January of last year, hoping to double its earnings and operating profit by a substantial margin by 2027. The company’s initial goals were to generate operating profit of more than €150 million and sales of between €330 million and €500 million, which is two to three times current FY2022 levels.
A recent review conducted by the board of Kambi and the company’s new CEO, Werner Becher, found that although the company has achieved progress in areas under its control, regulatory delays in important markets call for a reevaluation of these goals. The board is still optimistic about the company’s future, but it recognizes that expectations must be modified in light of the state of the market.
The review highlighted that slower-than-anticipated regulatory advancements in certain key markets could delay new revenue streams. Although Kambi did not specify which markets were lagging, previous statements suggest Brazil as a primary concern. The delays in Brazil’s market opening are expected to impact Kambi’s performance into FY24. While Kambi anticipates capturing significant market share in Brazil, the slow pace of regulation has altered long-term projections. Legal betting and gaming are now expected to launch in Brazil on 1 January 2025.
Kambi’s board will support Werner Becher in executing the company’s strategy and developing new long-term financial targets. The changes come as Kambi adapts to a new modular product offering, which will include sportsbook technology (Kambi), front-end development (Shape), trading (Tzeract), and esports (Abios). This restructuring aims to position Kambi for future growth and stability.
