Samba Digital achieved a turnover of €4,431,000 over the first nine months of the year, a sharp increase of 46% compared to the same period of the previous financial year. The turnover for the third quarter of 2023 represents the 22nd consecutive quarter of uninterrupted growth in activity since the creation of the company.

 

Continued expansion of Samba Digital internationally

 

During this period, Samba Digital continued its efforts to open new countries for expansion. For example, the Company signed its first major contract with a client in Saudi Arabia.

 

Thanks to the multilingual coverage of its offer for social networks, Samba Digital offers sports clubs, sports federations, etc. the possibility of increasing their presence with their fans or sponsors in their own language. This allows us to establish linguistic and cultural proximity with them and strengthen their loyalty. In this context, Samba Digital's innovative offering is particularly well suited to a globalizing world of sport.

Outlook: Confirmation of a revenue goal approaching €6M for 2023 and a growth trajectory which anticipates €10 million in 2024

 

Commercial activity was particularly strong in Q3 of 2023 with a historic figure of €2M for the period, allowing Samba Digital to confirm the achievement of annual revenue for 2023 of nearly €6M, which represents growth of more than 50% compared to 2022, with an operating margin of 23%.

 

Based on a rolling average, and using the turnover we saw in Q3 2023, the company is positioned towards an annual trend of €8M in turnover.

 

Thanks to numerous sporting events in which Samba Digital has participated (Rugby World Cup, etc.) or is preparing to do so (the Paris Olympics next summer for example), the group anticipates its continued development in a sustained manner.

 

The Group's economic model is based on recurring contracts for which a high renewal rate has been statistically observed, very often with an increase in volumes.

 

In this context, the group announces a 2024 turnover target of around €10 million, an increase of around 67% in its activity for the next financial year.

 

As part of its transfer project to Euronext Growth, which is planned soon, Samba Digital has just finalized a medium-term development plan, which provides for a strong acceleration of its activity over the next seven years.
