## What Drove Playtech Numbers?
Playtech’s good numbers were driven mainly by B2B online growth, with an emphasis on Latin America markets and its Snaitech brand. The latter reported record performance last year.
The group said that its revenue growth more than offset obstacles encountered due to the pandemic. Year on year, Playtech’s B2B gambling segment grew by 17%.
Where Playtech really shone last year was the Americas, where Snaitech performed very well. The group reported a revenue growth of 182% in the first semester.
## Regulatory Filing Date
“There will be an in-person results presentation at 9am at the London Stock Exchange, 10 Paternoster Square, EC4M 7LS, which will also be accessible via audio webcast,” read the trading update. “On the same day and at the same location as the FY 2022 results presentation, Playtech will also be hosting an event for investors and analysts. The focus of the event will be on the most exciting growth areas within the B2B division, with presentations from the management team covering the Americas and Live segments,” it said in a regulatory filing with the London stock Exchange.”
