The company reported a 21 per cent increase in revenue to $186m for the six months to June 30. EBITDA was up 81 per cent to $36m.

“The tremendous increase in customer numbers caused by the improvements in our product offering has led to these record results, with the highest revenues in the history of 888,” said Mattingley.

The second half of this year will see the company increase its investment in Spain and also in the US, where the company is preparing for regulatory changes, he continued.

“We will also continue to invest in our technological platform, the cornerstone of our offer, and make improvements to our mobile channel.”
