Entain said today that its online net gaming revenue fell 9% year-over-year in the fourth quarter ended December 31, as it reported particularly strong numbers a year earlier.Entain, home to Ladbrokes and Coral betting shops, said its retail net gaming revenue surged 60%, helped by easing of pandemic-related curbs.Entain also provided a new outlook range for annual core earnings between £875m and £885m, compared with a previous forecast of £850m to £900m.
The results are the company's first after a year in which it was the subject of two separate takeover approaches, from casino operator MGM and US rival DraftKings, both of which failed to result in any deal. The takeover interests came during a year of rapid growth for the online betting business during the lockdowns.
