Today we announced our Q1 Trading Update, reporting Group revenue of £431m, slightly ahead of the £420 - 430m guidance range which we outlined at the FY23 Results in March. Having lapped various regulatory and compliance changes during the quarter, and with increased marketing investment supported by an exciting product pipeline, we remain confident in a return to growth from Q2 2024.

This morning, CEO Per Widerström and CFO Sean Wilkins presented our 2023 Full Year Results to analysts and investors. They laid out our new Value Creation Plan to drive profitable and sustainable revenue growth, and a higher return on equity. Our proposed new name, evoke, is a clear signal of our new direction as we embrace the strengths of our past and build on this to continue to evoke delight in our customers with world class betting and gaming experiences. We are one company with a clear, united strategy, mission and vision. Thanks to all of our colleagues across the business for your ongoing hard work – we look forward to executing this plan together.

Today our FY23 results have been published, with our financial performance in-line with what we indicated in January’s Post-Close Trading Update. The announcement details our new Value Creation Plan and strategic framework that will enable us to deliver future sustainable profitable growth. It also includes news of our proposed new corporate identity, evoke plc, reflecting our shared company mission to make life more interesting and evoke delight in our customers with world class betting and gaming experiences. These are the first results under our new management team. CEO Per Widerström and CFO Sean Wilkins have made decisive action to build the foundations for our success, including strengthening the senior leadership team and resetting the Group’s operating model. Per Widerström, CEO of 888, commented: "It is incredibly exciting to announce our Value Creation Plan, our strategy for success, our new financial targets, and our new corporate identity. Today marks the beginning of an exciting new dawn for this business. Having joined the company in October 2023 my conviction in the significant opportunity for the Group is stronger than ever. We have acted with pace, decisiveness, and urgency to build a clear strategy to deliver success. These actions include significantly strengthening our executive leadership team and developing a new strategic framework and Value Creation Plan. I firmly believe that the Group now has all the key ingredients for long-term success: leading positions in growing markets with high and rising barriers to entry; powerful proprietary technology; a top-class management team; and some of the strongest betting and gaming brands in the world. We are clear on what success looks like, we have the team and capabilities to deliver, and I am confident that execution of our plan will deliver a high return on equity from sustainable profitable growth, enhanced by deleveraging.” The full announcement is available here: https://lnkd.in/gzRV9hyR

As part of our International Women’s Day celebrations, we are excited to announce the launch our new Women’s Community, EmpowHER. ♀ The community will be run by colleagues, for colleagues, to help ensure everyone, regardless of their gender, can flourish in a supportive and inclusive environment. Today we are hosting a talking session where colleagues will have the chance to meet the community's members, find out more about their ambition, and ask them questions.

We are excited to announce the launch of a new and improved wellbeing service for our 888 community! 📣 Colleagues across the organisation will have access to a library of on-demand content and resources, including expert guides, podcasts, webinars, Q&As, guided meditations, sleep stories and workshops. Colleagues will also have access to over 250 live talks and events throughout the year, on a wide range of topics related to health and wellbeing. For individuals wanting one-to-one support, confidential and remote sessions with wellbeing experts will also be made available to colleagues, covering topics ranging from fertility and menopause to nutrition and sleep. To ensure these resources are as accessible as possible, all of this will be available through a new partnership with Wellness Cloud via their mobile app, where content can be opened directly from a mobile phone.

Today marks the start of LGBTQ+ History Month! 🏳️🌈 LGBTQ+ History Month is an opportunity to celebrate the achievements and contributions of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer people, while raising awareness of the battle and prejudice against LGBTQ+ people and history.

We are here to embrace the diversity that makes our community extraordinary!

We're excited to share the launch of our new new intranet, OneHub! The aptly named OneHub will provide colleagues with a central place to find all the latest updates, information and to connect with colleagues from across the business.
