RSI CEO and President Richard Schwartz commented: “Despite a lower than normal online casino hold rate and currency headwinds during the quarter, which we believe collectively impacted our quarterly revenue by an estimated $6m, we generated record revenues for the fourteenth straight quarter and progressed towards our profitability goals and our target of being adjusted EBITDA positive for the second half of 2023.”

“Internationally, we are seeing strong results from Colombia and Ontario and are excited to begin increasing marketing efforts in Mexico. We remain focused on building a strong foundation in our new markets that will provide stable, long-term growth opportunities while keeping an eye on future profitability.”
