The impressive 22.3% increase in net revenue from international sports betting and the astounding 52.7% growth from the Canadian iGaming industry are credited for the increase in earnings. The company’s entire Q3 sales reached $45.9 million thanks to this rise.

During a conference call, CEO Sam Swanell emphasized the value of the worldwide sports betting and iGaming business and emphasized PointsBet’s strengths in highly regulated areas. The firm is positioned for sustained success and shareholder value due to its strategic global presence.

As PointsBet continues to capitalize on the global demand for sports betting and iGaming, the company remains optimistic about its future growth prospects.
