GROUPE PARTOUCHE

YEARLY TURNOVER 2018 UP BY +1.0% at € 410.8 M

DESPITE A DECREASE OF - 2.9% during the 4^TH QUARTER

Paris, 12^th December 2018, 06:00 p.m.- Groupe Partouche, one of the European gaming leaders, published its  consolidated turnover for the fiscal year ended 31^st October 2018 and for the 4^th quarter 2018 (August - October).

4^th quarter business activity impacted by lower attendance

The 4^th quarter turnover was down by - 2.9 % at € 99.6 M (- € 3 M)

Over the period under review, Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) declined by - 3.6 % (- € 6.2 M) at € 166.3 M due to two trends:

• A decrease in France GGR of -5.0% (- € 7.4 M), including a reduction of table games at Cannes Casino (- € 3.6 M) and more globally impacted by a lower attendance;
• Over the same period, sports betting registered a strong growth in Belgium (+32.6%, i.e. + € 1M€)

Turnover excluding games reached € 24.7 M with a growth of 3.4% (+ € 0.8 M), mainly due to the Parisian restaurant « Laurent ».

Growth in Yearly turnover +1%

Groupe Partouche reached an annual turnover of € 410.8 M up by +1% (+ € 3.9 M), despite a decrease in the business activity during 2^nd half-year (- € 2.0 M compared to 2^nd HY 2017).

The 2018 financial year ended with a stable GGR of € 638.7 M, benefiting on one hand from the significant growth of the sports betting GGR (+ € 5.7 M), but penalized on the other hand by - € 3.7 M due to the variation EUR / CHF exchange rate for the two Swiss casinos of Meyrin and Crans-Montana.

The NGR also remained stable, impacted by the increase in the CSG (general social contribution Tax) as of the 1^st January 2018 (- € 3.7 M), but favoured by the low rate of levy applied to sports betting that have experienced a strong growth.

The decrease in business activity over the second half-year will automatically lead to a decrease in operating profitability over the period, a trend that started in the first half of the year.

Events after the close of the fiscal year

In continuation of its strategy of renovation and development of its establishments, Groupe Partouche transferred on 20^th November 2018, the Pornic Casino to a new location, which has been a great success since it opened to the public, thanks to more adapted spaces and better accessibility (car parks) .
