Groupe Partouche turnover rises 3.7% to €360.7m in first nine months

Groupe Partouche has reported turnover of €360.7m ($419.8m) for the first nine months of its 2026 financial year, up 3.7% year-on-year as investments across its French casino estate supported stronger third-quarter growth.

The French casino operator recorded Gross Gaming Revenue of €571.1m for the nine months to July, also up 3.7%, while Net Gaming Revenue increased 3.9% to €279.5m.  

Casino turnover rose 4.4% to €329m, while hotel turnover fell 6.6% to €21.2m.

Momentum accelerated during Q3, with turnover increasing 5.1% to €120.3m and GGR rising 5.8% to €200m. French GGR grew 7.1% to €181.1m, driven principally by non-electronic table games, where revenue increased 76.0% to €28.2m.

The Paris gaming club generated €9.2m of GGR during the quarter, compared with €0.4m in the corresponding period. Groupe Partouche relocated the venue from Rue de Berri to Avenue de La Grande Armée in May, expanding its gaming area from approximately 300 square metres to more than 3,300 square metres.

Royal Palm Casino in Cannes also contributed €4m of Q3 GGR following restructuring work, compared with negative €0.2m a year earlier.  

Groupe Partouche has continued investing across its French estate, including renovations at Vichy and redevelopment programmes at its Cannes properties.

Outside France, Q3 GGR fell 5.1% to €18.9m. Renovation work at the Meyrin casino in Switzerland contributed to a 25.4% decline in its slot GGR, although Swiss online gaming increased 11.0% to €7.3m. 

GGR at the Cotonou casino in Benin reached €0.9m, three times the prior-year figure. 

The nine-month trading update does not contain EBITDA or net income figures. The latest reported profit metrics cover H1, when EBITDA was €48.3m and net income was €7.2m. EBITDA was lower on a reported basis because the prior-year period included a €12.2m non-cash reduction in social liabilities. Excluding that effect, H1 EBITDA increased 12.1%.

Earlier in June, Groupe Partouche reported first-half turnover of €240.4m as the Paris venue opened under the capital's gaming-club framework following regulatory uncertainty for the sector.
