(UK).- UK based online gaming company, Sky Betting and Gaming, informed a year-on-year jump in revenue during the 12 months to June 30, which was boosted by the success of its mobile business.

The broadcaster said its subsidiary generated revenue of 230.9 million euros during the past year, which represents an increase of 18% on the previous year.

BSkyB said the growth in revenue during the past 12 months was driven by a jump in mobile usage, with the number of customers using the operator’s mobile service increasing 29% on last year.

The broadcaster posted overall revenue of US$ 12.8 billion for the full-year, an increase of 6.5% on the US$ 12 billion achieved in the previous year.

Jeremy Darroch, chief executive of BSkyB, said the Sky Bet subsidiary grew ‘strongly’ during the period and played a part in helping boost overall group revenue.

“Looking ahead, we see a broader opportunity for growth than ever before as we bring our core products to more customers, and open up new revenue opportunities, Darroch said.

“After a successful year of investment, we are well placed to exploit these opportunities and continue to deliver growth and returns for shareholders.”
