Ian Burke<\/p><\/div>\n

The Rank Group which operates casinos, bingos and has an online business reported flat revenues for its third quarter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Covering the three months to March this year the company said that continued decline in its bingo retail arm was offset by steady growth in its online offerings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Indeed online gambling overall saw a 2% rise in revenues with a 1% decline in bingo retail and the Grosvenor casino brand remaining flat.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although the retail business for Rank was not impressive at all their digital business continues to improve albeit not as strong in this quarter. Grosvenor digital saw a 15% rise in revenues, Mecca online enjoyed a 10% growth in net revenues.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mecca Bingo retail continues to see falling visits per customer but was helped by a larger spend during those visits.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rank acquired Spanish online bingo operator YoBingo and is reported to be performing very well, although like for like figures were available as the purchase was made in May 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n

In other related news from Rank, former CEO and non-executive Chairman Ian Burke has announced he is leaving the company after the annual general meeting in October.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I have enjoyed my time at Rank immensely and am extremely proud of what we have achieved as a company,” Burke said. “I have decided to step down as chairman in the knowledge that Rank has a strong management team and board which will take the business forward through its transformation programme.”<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
