• Gross Winnings Revenue amounted to GBP 30.1 (29.3) million for the third quarter of 2009 and GBP 96.3 (88.5) million for the period January to September 2009. • Profit before tax for the third quarter of 2009 amounted to GBP 3.5 (4.5) million. Profit before tax for the period January to September 2009 amounted to GBP 20.1 (11.4) million. • Profit after tax for the third quarter of 2009 amounted to GBP 3.0 (3.9) million. Profit after tax for the period January to September 2009 amounted to GBP 18.3 (9.7) million. • Earnings per share for the third quarter of 2009 were GBP 0.108 (0.141) and GBP 0.656 (0.346) for the period January to September 2009. • Number of active customers at the end of the quarter was 329,721 (264,015). "All time high in Sportsbook turnover and active customers" “During the third quarter we saw an all time high on turnover in the Sportsbook with Live Betting as a driving force.” “However as football results were unfavourable for sports betting operators with leading clubs winning consistently and with only a few draws in the Premier League during August and September, the gross winnings margin for the quarter was below the long term average.” “During October the gross winnings margin has been higher than the long term average, highlighting the short term volatility of sports betting margins and that it is important to look at margins over at least one year periods.” “Also our marketing initiatives have paid off with an all time high in number of active customers for the quarter.” “As a result of GBP weakening against the Group’s other major currencies during the third quarter, EBITDA includes a foreign exchange gain on operating items of GBP 4.3 million. This gain is however partially offset by an unrealised foreign exchange loss on the bond of GBP 4.0 million, resulting in a positive net impact on Profit Before Tax of GBP 0.3 million,” says Petter Nylander, CEO of Unibet.
