Swedish state-owned gambling operator Svenska Spel reported its strongest second-quarter performance since Sweden re-regulated its gambling market in 2019, as higher customer engagement during the 2026 FIFA World Cup boosted revenue and profit.
During the three months ending June 30, Svenska Spel saw a 7% year-on-year increase in net gaming revenue to SEK1.96 billion ($202 million). Operating profit also rose by 13% to SEK617 million, driven by the heightened activity surrounding the World Cup.
