“Once again we continue to deliver improved results, by improving both revenues and Earnings. This continued growth of INTRALOT has again validated our corporate vision and model

Our 9-months revenue growth rate was healthy worldwide. We were particularly encouraged by the improvement in the growth rate of our international business, which grew approximately 96,8%  percent versus last year's 9-months period. Particularly, revenues from full operation projects, the fastest growing sector of our business, contributed 44,3% to INTRALOT’s consolidated revenues.

We continue to see strong results from our operations in Turkey, Bulgaria and Romania, with sales exceeding our expectations. Finally, winning the contract with the Montana Lottery confirmed and strengthened our position in the US market
