2011-09-02

Lotteries continued to perform robustly in the second quarter of 2011, resulting  in a strong overall performance for the January–June period of 2011, as against  the January–June period of 2010. All major lottery markets witnessed increases  in sales of between 5 and 25% for the first half of 2011, versus the  corresponding period of 2010. Worldwide, sales were up 12.4% for the first six  months of 2011 as compared to the first six months of 2010.

At the vanguard were participating Latin American lotteries, with a 24.9%  increase in sales in the first half of 2011, as against the first half of 2010.  The strong showing in Latin America was largely down to Argentina’s Lotería  Nacional Sociedad del Estado, which saw revenue growth of 30.6% for the first  half of 2011 over the first half of 2010. Participating Asia Pacific lotteries  also recorded strong rates of growth, with a first half on first half increase  in sales of 17.3% for 2011 compared to the corresponding period in 2010. Growth  in the Asia Pacific region was again driven by participating mainland Chinese  lotteries, which collectively witnessed an increase in sales of 30.9% for the  first six months of 2011 against the first six months of 2010.

Participating European lotteries also performed vigorously, with an aggregate  increase in sales of 8.8% for the first half of 2011 against the first half of  2010. However, here the picture was more complex. The aggregate growth in sales  across Europe was driven by excellent results from Lottomatica, which reported  an increase in sales of 22.1% for the first half of 2011 over the first half of  2010. However, this revenue growth was offset by a 20.1% decline in sales at  OPAP, Greece, for the half of 2011 against the first half of 2010.

Participating North American lotteries experienced a more modest first half,  recording an aggregate increase in sales of 5% for the first six months of 2011,  as compared to the first six months of 2010. Growth in the North American market  was driven largely by the California Lottery, which reported an increase in  sales of 19.5% for the first six months of 2011 over the first six months of  2010. In contrast, aggregate sales at participating African lotteries held  steady for the first half of 2011 versus the first half of 2010. While revenue  from sales at participating African lotteries grew second quarter on second  quarter, the aggregate half year on half year figures were dragged down by the  aggregate first quarter on first quarter results.

This edition of the WLA Quarterly Lottery Indicator sees the addition of two new  member lotteries, both from the USA: the Connecticut Lottery Corporation and the  Tennessee Education Lottery Corporation. We extend a warm welcome to our newest  members and look forward to bringing you the third quarter results shortly.
