Bookmaker Ladbrokes has reported a fall in its profit, though it delivered a very good football world cup performance.
In the first half of the year which ended on 30th of June the pre-tax profit decreased to 49.7% to $27.7 million. Whereas, the company stated that in this quarter its chief goal was to make betterments in the operational department, which evidently implies that their fiscal performance would be affected.
The chief executive, Richard Glynn stated that the company has gained significant improvement and is much stronger than the previous years. Currently they have products, platforms, audience and the brand to deliver.
Almost 250 FTSE gambling group wasted the first half of the year in recreation since they wanted to speed up their online business before the start of football tournaments in Brazil. 50 shops were shuttered down due to this reason, in the entire U.S.
Last year Ladbrokes had made a merge with Playtech, which is a software developer company. Therefore, the company has to swop all its games to a another system. Though the organization, confessed that this union has put forth a greater disturbance than the prognostications of the company owner.
On the whole the operating revenue, reduced to a third with $56.8 million for six months to the 6th of August. As per the reports the profit went almost half to $27.7 million. Even though the company performed as it was expected to do so, but still the shares of the company fall badly.
