Insights

Inspired Entertainment's Q4 2024 results showcase impressive financial momentum with total revenue of $83.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $30.9 million (up 22% YoY). The standout performer was the Interactive segment, which delivered record-breaking results with revenue growing 45% YoY and Adjusted EBITDA surging 105%. Even more impressive is the Interactive segment's margin expansion from 50% to 71%, demonstrating exceptional operational leverage and scalability.

The Gaming segment showed strong recovery with 42% growth in Q4 segment EBITDA, while the full-year margin improved by 2.6% points through operational efficiencies and favorable revenue mix. The 5,000 Vantage cabinet installations with William Hill should provide a solid revenue boost entering 2025. Meanwhile, the Leisure segment maintained steady growth with a 7% revenue increase driven by continued Vantage deployments across multiple venues.

While Virtual Sports faced some headwinds with a key customer, management's strategic restructuring of product development teams under unified leadership represents a thoughtful response. The segment still maintains impressive 70%+ margins despite challenges.

The company's diversified business model is proving resilient, with digital growth offsetting any softness in traditional segments. New market entries (Brazil), product innovations (Hybrid Dealer Roulette), and strategic partnerships (NHL, Virginia Lottery, bet365) provide multiple growth vectors for 2025. The $68.0 million net income figure represents substantial profitability improvement, though the gap between this and the $4.7 million adjusted net income suggests significant non-recurring items affected results.

Inspired's Q4 results reveal an accelerating digital transformation strategy that's yielding significant returns. The Interactive segment is emerging as the company's growth engine with its 45% YoY revenue increase driven by geographic expansion across the UK, North America, and continental Europe. The segment's 71% EBITDA margin demonstrates the inherent scalability of digital gaming operations compared to hardware-dependent business lines.

The Hybrid Dealer product represents a particularly innovative development in the iGaming space. Securing deployments with major operators like BetMGM (Michigan), Loto-Québec (Canada), and bet365 (UK) signals strong market reception. The planned expansion with Roulette 4 Ball Extra Bet in H2 2025 should maintain momentum. These products blend live dealer engagement with RNG mechanics, addressing both operational cost challenges of traditional live dealer games and player engagement limitations of standard RNG titles.

Strategically, management's decision to unify product and platform teams across segments under single leadership addresses development inefficiencies while potentially accelerating innovation cycles. The William Hill partnership and 5,000 Vantage cabinet deployment demonstrates continued demand for premium land-based hardware despite digital growth.

The company's multi-channel approach to content distribution enables efficient asset monetization, with games developed once but deployed across online, retail, and mobile channels. New market entries like Brazil represent significant growth potential, especially for the Interactive and Virtual Sports segments which require minimal physical infrastructure compared to traditional gaming operations.

  • Fourth Quarter Revenue of $83.0 million, driven primarily by record Interactive revenue, up 45% year-over-year
  • Fourth Quarter Net Income of $68.0 million and Adjusted Net Income of $4.7 million
  • Fourth Quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $30.9 million, up 22% from last year and driven by record Interactive Adjusted EBITDA, up 105% year-over-year

NEW YORK, March 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (“Inspired” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: INSE), a leading B2B provider of gaming content, technology, hardware and services, today reported financial results for the three-month period and fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

“We ended the year with a fourth quarter that reflects the strength and resilience of our diversified business model," said Lorne Weil, Executive Chairman of Inspired. "We are pleased to report another quarter of robust performance in our Interactive segment, with revenue growing 45% year-over-year and Adjusted EBITDA more than doubling. This growth continues to be driven by strength in the UK, North America, and continental Europe. Our fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA margin in interactive expanded from 50% to 71% year over year, showcasing the scalability of our digital operations. We're particularly encouraged by the substantial progress we’ve made in our Hybrid Dealer rollout strategy, including the successful launch of our MGM Bonus City game with BetMGM in Michigan and achievement of a significant milestone with the commitment to our revolutionary Hybrid Dealer Roulette game in Canada by Loto-Québec. Additionally, we announced bet365 as the first customer to offer the Hybrid Dealer product in the UK. We expect to add our Roulette 4 Ball Extra Bet game to the portfolio early in the second half of 2025 and the pipeline for our Hybrid Dealer product continues to be robust.

"In our Gaming segment, we concluded 2024 with a strong fourth quarter, achieving 42% growth in segment Adjusted EBITDA. For the full year, segment Adjusted EBITDA margin improved 260 basis points compared to the prior year, driven by enhanced efficiency and profitability through our operational initiatives and a favorable revenue mix. Additionally, our partnership with William Hill is progressing well with the installation of 5,000 new Vantage cabinets, on track to be completed by the end of the first quarter. These next-gen terminals have consistently driven double-digit growth, and when combined with the results we are seeing from our operational initiatives, we have a solid foundation for further growth in 2025.

"While our Virtual Sports segment faced challenges over the past year, particularly with a key customer, we have initiated strategic measures to streamline business and product development. This includes unifying all of our product and platform teams across segments, including Virtual Sports, under one cohesive leadership group. We believe an integrated approach, combined with some innovative new products, will drive future growth. Despite the recent headwinds, we are encouraged by the high single-digit revenue growth from our broader customer base, driven by strong online performance. We remain confident in the long-term potential of this high-margin business, which continues to generate margins of over 70%. Our strategic focus on growth initiatives in Brazil, our new licensing agreement with the National Hockey League, and the extension of our partnership with Aristocrat Interactive to provide V-Lottery Virtual Sports games to the Virginia Lottery position us well for future success.

"Our Leisure segment once again delivered steady growth with a 7% increase in revenue driven by continued Vantage deployments in our pubs business as well as growth in our bingo, MSA and holiday park businesses. EBITDA margin improved due to cost improvements across the segment.

"As we look ahead, we are committed to executing our strategic priorities: expanding our digital businesses, optimizing our land-based operations, and investing in new market opportunities. The strong performance of our Interactive segment, improving profitability in Gaming, and our ongoing initiatives in Virtual Sports content and new markets give us confidence in our ability to drive sustainable growth and create value for our shareholders."

Recent Business Highlights

  • Subsequent to quarter-end, began the strategic rollout of mobile and slot games catalogue in Brazil.
  • Launched the Hybrid Dealer Roulette game in the U.K. with bet365 as the first UK customer for the innovative Hybrid Dealer product line.
  • Extended partnership with Aristocrat Interactive to provide the Virginia Lottery with V-Lottery Virtual Sports games, making it the first U.S. lottery to offer this innovative online content.
  • Subsequent to quarter-end, announced a long-term extension of its partnership with Moto Hospitality and Welcome Break, two of the UK’s largest motorway service operators.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, to analyze our operating performance. We use these financial measures to manage our business on a day-to-day basis. We believe that these measures are also commonly used in our industry to measure performance. For these reasons, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide expanded insight into our business, in addition to standard U.S. GAAP financial measures. There are no uniform rules for defining and using non-GAAP financial measures, and as a result the measures we use may not be comparable to measures used by other companies, even if they have similar labels. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. You should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP financial statements.

We define our non-GAAP financial measures as follows:

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income and income tax expense.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income and income tax expense, and other additional exclusions and adjustments (see Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation table). Such additional excluded amounts include stock-based compensation U.S. GAAP charges where the associated liability is expected to be settled in stock, and changes in the value of earnout liabilities and income and expenditure in relation to legacy portions of the business (being those portions where trading no longer occurs) including closed defined benefit pension schemes. Additional adjustments are made for items considered outside the normal course of business, including (1) restructuring costs, which include charges attributable to employee severance, management changes, restructuring, dual running costs, costs related to facility closures and integration costs, (2) merger and acquisition costs, (3) gains or losses not in the ordinary course of business and (4) the costs of the restatement of previously issued financial statements.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA, when considered along with other performance measures, is a particularly useful performance measure, because it focuses on certain operating drivers of the business, including sales growth, operating costs, selling and administrative expense and other operating income and expense. We believe Adjusted EBITDA can provide a more complete understanding of our operating results and the trends to which we are subject, and an enhanced overall understanding of our financial performance and prospects for the future. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of liquidity or cash flows from operations or a measure comparable to net income or loss, because it does not take into account certain aspects of our operating performance (for example, it excludes non-recurring gains and losses which are not deemed to be a normal part of underlying business activities). Our use of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to the use by other companies of similarly termed measures. Management compensates for these limitations by using Adjusted EBITDA as only one of several measures for evaluating our operating performance. In addition, capital expenditures, which affect depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and income tax benefit (expense), are evaluated separately by management.

Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income (loss) excluding the effects of certain exclusions and adjustments. Such excluded amounts include income and expenditure in relation to legacy portions of the business (being those portions where trading no longer occurs) including closed defined benefit pension schemes. Additional adjustments are made for items considered outside the normal course of business, including (1) restructuring costs, which include charges attributable to employee severance, management changes, restructuring, dual running costs, costs related to facility closures and integration costs, (2) merger and acquisition costs and (3) gains or losses not in the ordinary course of business. These items have been adjusted to reflect the tax impact from excluding them from net income (loss).

Adjusted Net Income per diluted share is computed by dividing the Adjusted Net Income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including the effects of any potentially dilutive securities, including RSUs, using the treasury stock method, and convertible debt or convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method, unless the inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Functional Currency at Constant rate. Currency impacts shown have been calculated as the current-period average GBP:USD rate less the equivalent average rate in the prior year quarter, multiplied by the current period amount in our functional currency (GBP). The remaining difference, referred to as functional currency at constant rate, is calculated as the difference in our functional currency, multiplied by the prior year quarter average GBP: USD rate, as a proxy for functional currency at constant rate movement.

Currency Movement represents the difference between the results in our reporting currency (USD) and the results on a functional currency at constant rate basis.

Reconciliations from net income (loss), as shown in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss, to Adjusted EBITDA are shown below.
