Of this growth, 11% was organic, while operating income (EBIT) grew a sizeable 35% to SEK 1.19bn.
Net income rose at a similar level, 37%, to SEK 1.07bn, corresponding to SEK 7.70 per share.
During Q4, group revenue increased by 14% to SEK 1.43bn, with an organic growth of 12%; all of Betsson’s regions showed growth, while casino revenue was up 24% to SEK 1.07bn.
Sportsbook revenue fell 5% to SEK 341.4m but this was attributed to lower margins than Q4 2017, as turnover increased by 6%.
EBIT grew a substantial 56% to SEK 341.5m, with the operating margin rising year-on-year from 17.4% to 23.8%.
Betsson CEO Pontus Lindwall said: “For the third consecutive quarter, Betsson delivered all-time high revenue and EBIT and proved 2018 to be a turning point.
“I am happy to see how we have been able to show continuous results from the ‘Back on track’ program during the year.”
