They generated greater earnings compared to the previous year, even though consumers spent less on their gaming offerings. <\/p>\n<p>Playtika effectively managed their expenses during the quarter, contributing to increased profitability. They maintain a strong financial standing and are actively seeking acquisitions.  Recently, they acquired the &#8220;King of Poker&#8221; game from Azerion.<\/p>\n<p>Playtika&#8217;s chief executive stated their positive performance is attributed to their adaptability to shifts in the mobile gaming landscape. They are leveraging their technology and popular titles to attract a larger paying customer base. <\/p>\n<p>Playtikas earnings took a dip of 2.5% compared to the previous year, landing at \u20ac600 million (\u20ac587.6 million).<\/p>\n<p>Playtika refrained from divulging all the specifics of its financial performance, but did unveil some data. This included a 9.9% drop in social casino game revenue, a 3.7% rise in casual game revenue, and a 6.3% increase in Blitz Bingo.<\/p>\n<p>The average number of daily paying users saw a decrease of 1.0%, settling at 307,000. On the other hand, the average paying user conversion rate saw a year-over-year increase of 3.2%.<\/p>\n<p>Net profit climbed due to a reduction in costs.<br \/>\nThe dip in revenue was balanced out by lower costs. Operating costs took a hit of 11.4%, reaching $503.6 million, with reduced spending on research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.<\/p>\n<p>Playtika also raked in a positive $23.1 million from interest. As a result, pre-tax profit saw a surge of 68.5%, hitting $116.1 million. The developer shelled out $40.4 million in taxes, leading to a net profit of $75.7 million, a jump of 108.0%.<\/p>\n<p>The developer also recorded a $14.8 million change in the fair value of derivatives and a $0.2 million decrease in foreign currency translation. As a result, comprehensive net profit saw a whopping increase of 340.5%, reaching $90.3 million.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, adjusted EBITDA for the quarter saw a 6.7% increase, reaching $215 million.<\/p>\n<p>Playtikas performance in the first half of the year mirrored this trend.<br \/>\nThe six months ending June 30 displayed similar patterns. Revenue took a dip of 2.8%, reaching $1.3 billion, but costs decreased by 10.4%, landing at $1.01 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Playtika mentioned that interest income reached $51.7 million, meaning that pre-tax profit touched $239.9 million, an increase of 48.3%. The developer paid $80.1 million in taxes, resulting in a net profit of $159.8 million, an increase of 33.6%.<\/p>\n<p>Including $2. <\/p>\n<p>Playtikas powerful performance was fueled by a $9 million positive effect from currency exchange rate changes, adding to a $7 million gain in derivative fair value, leading to a higher overall total. The firm&#8217;s net earnings hit $169.7 million, a 41.9% rise compared to the same period last year. Modified EBITDA also expanded by 9.7% to $437.7 million.<\/p>\n<p>Looking forward, Playtika kept its guidance for the entire year. Income is projected to be at the lower end of the previously set range of $2.57 billion to $2.62 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Modified EBITDA is expected to be at the higher end of the range of $805 million to $830 million. The firm also mentioned that capital expenditures will be between $100 million and $105 million, lower than the previously projected $115 million to $120 million.<\/p>\n<p>Playtika CEO Robert Antokol stated, &#8220;Our strong operational capabilities and advanced technology are the drivers of the company&#8217;s robust profitability and healthy cash flow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By combining our skilled personnel with the transformative power of our proprietary technology, we are unlocking the full potential of our games and are well-positioned to enhance the value of acquired assets, such as our recent PokerStars franchise deal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>These outcomes come after Playtika implemented a series of cost-cutting measures.<\/p>\n<p>Late last year, the company announced plans to lay off approximately 600 workers, representing 15% of its workforce. The company stated that this was part of its gradual exit from &#8220;non-core products.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Playtika declared in March that they would be pausing new game creation until they could confirm that new games would be lucrative.<\/p>\n<p>You can sign up for the iGaming newsletter for further updates. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The social gaming enterprise, Playtika, experienced a successful second quarter despite a decline in revenue.
