Restructuring for Sustainability
Although Leisure & Gaming plc announced a slight decrease in the company’s
internet gambling profits compared to the first quarter of 2007, the company
also announced that the decline was expected and is not an indication that the
Leisure & Gaming is experiencing any difficulties. Leisure & Gaming plc is an
online casinos betting gambling group that recently completely restructured the
company, its offerings and the company’s long-term expansion plans.
The specific first quarter results indicate that L&G reported a Euro 2.1 million
in profits for the quarter compared to Euro $2.5 million in profits for the same
period in 2007. But along with the announcement of a slight decrease from the
previous year the online casinos gambling group announced that previous
restructuring of betting shops and other interests within the Italian gambling
market contributed to the slight decline in profits.
The CEO at L&G, Henry Birch noted that the company anticipated the changes and
expects profits to boom once the Italian online casinos gambling and betting
market is more settled. Birch comments, “…we believe that as and when the
Italian regulator allows for gaming products such as casino, poker and bingo,
this profitability will substantially increase.”
L&G is a unique European online casino and betting alternative because the
company is prominent and focused in some of the less popular gambling markets
such as Italy, Greece, Romania, and Cyprus. Birch notes, “Having restructured
the operations of the company, we are confident that we can deliver sustainable
profitability going forward.” L&G is currently focused on creating dynamic
partnerships from this point onward that will increase the company’s
sustainability. |
