Malta-headquartered Kindred Group plc announced it will present its report for fourth quarter 2022 on Wednesday 8 February. CEO Henrik Tj?rnstr?m will host a web presentation in English at 10.00am.

The company generated €305 million in total group revenue for Q4 2022, a strong increase of 24 percent year-on-year compared to the same period in 2021.

Kindred reported customer growth by 25 percent to 1.83 million registered customers during the last quarter 2022 as a result of the World Cup in Qatar. CEO Henrik Tjarnstrom said “it is important to remember that the unusual timing of a winter World Cup will distort any direct comparatives”.? Although there were pros and cons to having a winter World Cup, the company reported record-breaking turnover for both sportsbook and casino in December.

Kindred has paused a daily fine from Norwegian regulator Lotteritlisynet of NOK 1.2 million (€111,960) that came into effect on 14 September 2022. The regulator confirmed that it is legal for Norwegian customers to use the operator′s services after a warning that fines would cease when the operator stopped to target consumers in Norway.

Rachel Randle-Williams has been promoted to Chief Human Resources Officer replacing Gavin Hayward?while S?ren Th?rnlund?has been appointed as new Chief Technology Officer replacing Marcus Smedman.
