Though the bulk of the news coming out of the online gambling business, Party Gaming has been in relation to deals and agreements signed in the last few months, the internet casino firm finally released their trading update for the period, announcing that the second quarter results would up 28 percent when the final numbers are tallied.

Party Gaming has inarguably jumped to one of the most prestigious positions in the online gambling industry in recent years, growing to be one of the most powerful firms in Europe. Based out of London, Party Gaming issued a trading update to their executive and investors last week, proclaiming that they expect their revenue to be up by more than a quarter for the second period in the fiscal year. The reason for such a success in light of economic difficulties all over the world has been credited to the online gambling sector, the fastest growing division of Party Gaming’s offerings.

Acquisitions such as the purchases of established brands like Cashcade and the World Poker Tour have also made a significant difference. The revenue will be up a solid 28 percent, though the good news came with a warning that total profits could be down slightly from the first quarter numbers, as online poker activity saw a slight drop of business of about 9 percent. Apparently, sports gamblers did particularly well with their guesses for the World Cup as well, putting an unfortunate dent into that department’s earnings.

Fortunately, the growth of the internet casino activity jumped, with steady maintenance of both sports betting and bingo. The future looks bright as well, with prospective licensing in Europe. They’ve been transparent about their intentions to enter the US market as well. Italy and France are both on the horizon, with a poker project expected to be greenlighted by the end of the year. In France, their Party Poker.fr site is already up and running.
