The importance of the US sports betting market for the technology operator was at full display recently, when Kambi announced its 2020 revenues were up by 28% driven by US expansion. Kambi posted a record 2020 revenue of €117.7 million, up from the €92.3 million it generated in 2019.
Consequently, the increased revenue led to a nearly 120% higher operating profit year-over-year, and profit after tax 130% higher than the year prior, as the operator underscored the busy sporting calendar and the exceptional operator margin among other key factors, besides growth in new markets.
