Revenue for 1H23 reached $73.9m, up 18.4% over the 1H22 figure. Underlying EBITDA was also up 15.5% to $35.1m.
Jumbo CEO and founder Mike Veverka said: “1H23 was a tough comparative period with three $100m+ jackpots including a $160m Powerball. We are very pleased with the solid 1H24 revenue growth in lottery retailing despite slightly lower ticket sales and subdued jackpots. Looking ahead, the second half of FY24 has started extremely well with a record $200m Powerball in February, our best draw to date.
