Punter boosts gaming firm's profits
A punter who pumped almost half of a £3.1m jackpot win back into slot machine games has helped to boost the revenues of online betting firm PartyGaming.
The anonymous player scooped the roll-over prize on PartyCasino after it overhauled jackpot rules earlier in the year to tempt in punters with bigger payouts.
The recycled winnings helped the company push up fourth-quarter revenues 32%, while the sports betting business gained from a higher number of draws after a historic low at the start of the Premier League football season.
The PartyPoker owner said all four of its divisions - poker, casino games, bingo and sports betting - showed growth in the three months to December 31 as revenues jumped by almost a third to £87.2 million over a year earlier.
Shares rose 3% on Wednesday as the firm said underlying earnings for 2009 as a whole would be "slightly ahead" of board expectations.
The fourth quarter is traditionally better for the online gaming sites due to poorer weather but the firm added that casino and sports betting revenues had been "particularly strong".
The group's PartyPoker website - which had 438,000 active players during the three months to December - now boasts the biggest pool of players behind PokerStars and Full Tilt.
The business is also eyeing growth opportunities in Europe this year as well as potential acquisitions and mergers. The company was reported in December to be in talks over a potential merger with Austrian rival Bwin, which would create a £2 billion internet gaming giant.
Chief executive Jim Ryan said: "With some of the world's largest gaming sites in poker, casino and bingo, and opportunities to further consolidate the online gaming sector, we are confident about our future prospects."
Investec analyst Matthew Gerard said: "An increasing focus on casino and bingo will drive robust revenue growth."

PartyGaming Says to Beat Expectations, by Greg Tingle - 3rd February 2010
Online gambling group PartyGaming said it expected to report 2009 EBITDA slightly ahead of the board's expectations and highlighted the prospects for consolidation in the sector.
The company, which operates online gaming websites like PartyPoker.com and PartyCasino.com, said group revenue for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $132 million (82.3 million pounds), up 32 percent on the prior year and 17 percent on the previous quarter.
It said the key drivers behind the performance were a strong performance in casino and sports betting and an increase in new player sign-ups.
"With some of the world's largest gaming sites in poker, casino and bingo, and opportunities to further consolidate the online gaming sector, we are confident about our future prospects," said Chief Executive Jim Ryan on Wednesday.
PartyGaming has held talks with a number of companies over possible consolidation including Austria's bwin. Analysts expect a wave of M&A activity among online gaming groups over the coming year. The company also announced the appointment of Per Widerstrom, previously chief executive of Mangas Gaming, to the newly created role of chief operating officer.
