The beginning of 2021 was focused on growing and building up critical mass in the casino business and in accordance with that we conducted some further acquisitions, wherein Manisol was the largest. Mid-2021 was when the first part of the construction of our casino business was completed, and we had thus completely changed pace from gaming development to casino operation. After that our focus shifted to working with the organic development of the business, where we introduced Rhino Gaming.
Svensson explained that Q4 had higher revenue than Q3 despite the fact that the quarter began with the closure of The Netherlands, which increased competition. He added, “In terms of results, the quarter was affected negatively by the fact that we implemented larger marketing campaigns during the first half of Q4 while competition for customers was high.”
