Sportradar, the sports technology company, secured a year-on-year (YoY) revenue increase of 22% in the second quarter (Q2) of 2023, generating €216.4 million ($238.4 million).

The company yesterday (August 9) announced its results for the three months up to June 30, and, despite the revenue rise, Q2 profit decreased by €22.8 million compared with the same quarter last year. This was attributed to a net negative impact from foreign exchange rates.

Of the revenue brought in, its Rest of the World Betting segment accounted for €114.1 million during the three months, a rise of 20%, with the Rest of the World Betting Audiovisual segment then bringing in €49.6 million (up 25%) and the US segment providing €38 million (up 31%).

The Rest of World Betting revenue rise was driven by increased sales of the company’s higher value-add offerings including its Managed Betting Services, which increased 25% to €41.1 million, as well as its Live Odds and Live Data products which grew 19% YoY. 

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) increased 46% to €40.1 million.

During the quarterly period, the sports data intelligence and digital services provider expanded its long-standing agreement with Caesar’s Entertainment, to supply betting data from US sports leagues including basketball’s NBA, baseball’s MLB, and ice hockey’s NHL.
