Sportingbet Plc Trading Update

Sportingbet Plc (LSE: SBT), the world`s la rgest online betting group, is pleased
to announce that trading throughout the three months ended 31 March 2004 has
been ahead of management`s expectations.

Operating profit before goodwill amortisation for the quarter is anticipated to
be not less than £7.6m (2003: £4.0m) and cumulative operating profit before
goodwill amortisation for the four quarters to 31 March 2004 is therefore
anticipated to be not less than £19.5m (2003: £14.6m).

This strong performance has been generated by a continued improvement in the key
performance indicators of the business. In the three months to 31 March 2004 the
number of sports bets placed with the Group has risen 49% to 9.1m (2003: 6.1m).
The number of bets placed has been good across all of the Group`s operations:
Europe has increased by 111% to 2.9m bets; the USA by 27% to 5.7m bets and
Australia by 83% to 0.5m bets. In addition, new customer signups and gross
margin levels have been pleasing, particularly in key events such as the
Cheltenham Festival (UK) and March Madness Basketball (USA). Recently introduced
new products, such as poker, are developing well.

Sportingbet will announce its unaudited results for the four quarters to 31
March 2004 on 29 April 2004 and its audited results for the 16 months to 31 July
2004 in October 2004.

World Gaming plc reports fourth quarter and full year 2003 results
Monday April 5, 7:01 am ET


LONDON, UK, April 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - World Gaming plc (OTC BB: WGMGY - News), a UK-based Internet-gaming software and e-business services group of companies (the "Group"), is pleased to report financial results for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2003.
Highlights

- Full year net profit of $2,958,000 or 7 cents per share vs. loss of
$5,318,000 for the same period last year or a loss of 16 cents
per share.
- Net profit for the quarter of $2,934,000 vs. loss of $593,000 for the
same period last year.
- Full year profit before interest and related items and depreciation of
$5,245,000 (12 cents per share) vs. loss of $2,197,000 (loss of
6 cents per share) for the same period last year.
- 33% increase in wagering volume in the quarter when compared to the
same quarter last year.
- Royalty revenue grew 7 percent for the year ended December 31, 2003.
- Operating expenses including interest and depreciation down 34% for
the year ended December 31, 2003.
- Settlement of certain legal claims and capital lease obligations.
- Working capital deficit reduced from $5,581,000 at December 31, 2002
to $126,000 at December 31, 2003.
- New Casino games and Virtual Games released during the year with
further products scheduled for release.

Fiscal results


Total revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 grew 22% to $7,357,000 compared to $6,043,000 for the same period last year. Together with a 33% year on year increase in the volume of wagers processed on our systems in the quarter, the increase is also attributable to royalties received as a result of the strong net win achieved by our licensees. Stable deposit processing gateways further assisted the increase in wagering volume for the quarter. The Group experienced a 9% increase in royalty revenues in the quarter when compared to the same period last year.

Total revenues for the year grew $921,000 or 5%. This growth was driven by a 7% or $1,056,000 increase in royalty revenue and a 56% or a $634,000 increase in transaction processing revenues. Revenues in respect of new license fees fell $658,000 as the Group did not seek to sign new licensees in the year. The increase in royalty revenues occurred despite the impact of losing a licensee in May, who at that time contributed 6% of total revenues. Increased transaction processing fees in the year represent the increase in revenues from on-charging higher processing costs from suppliers, charges that our licensees were finding increasingly difficult to sustain.

In February 2004, the Group closed transaction processing and customer service divisions of the business. This closure affected less than 6% of total deposit volume on behalf of licensees and is expected to contribute a further $600,000 in profits through shedding this ineffective and loss making aspect of the business.

There was no revenue from new licenses for the year as the Group continued to focus on existing licensees during the year. As the enhancement of its platform and product suite continues, the Group expects to widen its focus to once again include marketing to new licensees, but only to the extent the Group is in a position to fully support such licensees.

For the year ended December 31, 2003, total system-wide wagers grew 12% to $3.8 billion from $3.4 billion in the prior year.

Net profit for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 was $2,934,000 or 7 cents per share compared to a net loss of $593,000 or 2 cents loss per share. The increase in net profit in the quarter driven by increased revenues also reflected the results of restructuring that has brought the Group`s cost base to more manageable levels.

Net profit for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $2,958,000 or 7 cents per share compared to a loss of $5,318,000 or a loss of 16 cents per share in the prior year.

The gross margin for the quarter was 87.9% as compared to 92.5% for the same period last year. For the full year, gross margin was 87.9% as compared to 89.9%. The decline in gross margin represents the heightened direct costs attributable to the transaction processing division of the business that was closed in February 2004.

Operating expenses including interest and depreciation decreased 42% to $3,551,000 during the fourth and final quarter of 2003 compared to $6,142,000 for the same period last year. This decline primarily consisted of a 95% reduction in bad debt write-offs or provisioning, a decline in professional fees and a decline in depreciation charges as many high-value assets became fully depreciated in the quarter.

For the full year ended December 31, 2003, operating expenses including interest and depreciation declined 34% to $13,421,000 compared to $20,483,000 for the same period last year. Efforts to reduce operating costs continued throughout the year with the primary contributors to this reduction being:

- Bad debts for the year ended December 31, 2003 decreased 90 percent or
$3,056,000 compared to the same period last year. Last year the Group
experienced significant write-offs in failed transaction processing
routes. The failure of these routes typically occurred due to
implementation of transaction processes that lacked transparency.
Improved due diligence procedures and reinforcement of risk sharing
policies with licensees has resulted in a significant reduction in
this cost in the year ended December 31, 2003.
- Depreciation expense decreased 39% or $1,235,000 when compared to the
same period last year. This reduction was the result of a number of
significant assets becoming fully depreciated in the third quarter of
2003.
- Communication costs decreased 46% or $397,000 when compared to the
same period last year as contracts with certain suppliers were
cancelled or renegotiated and the use of voice-over IP
telecommunication was utilized.
- Salaries and wages decreased 10% or $670,000 despite severance costs
incurred on a number of senior employees in the year.
- Professional fees declined 22% or $390,000 as litigious matters
requiring third party advice declined and other advisors were not
utilized or changed.
- Other corporate overhead including occupancy costs, board expenses and
travel declined 30% or $1,314,000 when compared to the same period
last year through initiatives such as relocation or closure of offices
and renegotiation or changes in certain supplier accounts.


As a result of settling a number of significant capital lease obligations in the year, the company derived other income of $981,000 through write-backs of amounts previously accrued in respect of these obligations.

Operational update


In the lead-up to the winter sports calendar, the Group concentrated efforts in upgrading the Oracle Database and network infrastructure. This planning has maintained a more stable platform throughout the season with fewer system outages. In addition, on-line security risks through Denial of Service Attacks that were prevalent throughout the season have predominately been mitigated through the implementation of new filtering hardware and Internet traffic routing. Further security measures are being reviewed and implemented across the system with the key result to bring system outages to an absolute minimum.

During February 2004, the Group closed its transaction processing and customer service divisions. This decision formed an integral part of the overall business review that commenced in April 2003. The closure of these divisions allows the Group to concentrate on its core software development business while shedding divisions that we cannot efficiently administer.

In keeping with the Group`s commitment to deliver an enhanced product suite, a new concept in on-line gaming called Virtual Games was released to our licensees in the fourth quarter of 2003. Performance of these games has met management`s expectations and provides an enhanced dimension to the Group`s product suite.

The Group`s expanded horseracing product is in the final stages of testing with licensees and is expected to be released in April 2004. In addition, we plan to continue developing the horseracing product thus giving our licensees the ability to better manage their risk and enable improved yield on this product.

Multi-player poker remains a significant priority of the Group. Further stages of development have commenced under a partnership with a third-party supplier. The multi-player poker product is expected to add a significant revenue stream to our licensee`s product suite and we expect to have this available in the third quarter of 2004.

Over the coming twelve months, we intend to invest further in our software platform to enable improved functionality. Together with a new development process, this is expected to deliver better quality products with a faster delivery timetable.

Daniel Moran, World Gaming`s CEO commented:

"The Group has undergone a number of changes in the year including implementation of a new executive Board early in the year, restructuring of certain aspects of the business and closure of those areas that the Group could not effectively maintain or were inconsistent with our core software development business. This continued into the first quarter of 2004. Many of these changes have streamlined the business and enabled it to turnaround and produce the results that we see today."

"The Board`s resolve remains that of growing the business through enhanced products and infrastructure as we continue to act in a culture of heightened fiscal responsibility. The benefits of this strategy are beginning to show as the Group`s financial position begins to strengthen."

The company has today filed its Form 20-F in respect of the year ended December 31, 2003 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Full details of this filing are available for viewing at www.sec.gov.

World Gaming plc reports second quarter results

LONDON, UK, Aug 5, 2004 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- World Gaming plc (OTC BB: WGMGY), a UK-based Internet-gaming software and e-business services group of companies (the "Company"), is pleased to report financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004.



Highlights

- Net profit for the quarter of $1,684,000 vs. loss of $236,000 for the
same period last year.

- Settlement of outstanding office lease liability.

Fiscal results

Total revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 were $4,148,000 compared to $2,986,000 for the same period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2004 total revenues were $9,512,000 compared to $7,523,000 for the same period last year. This 39% increase in revenues in the quarter was driven primarily by increased licensee wagering volumes of 85% and higher net win achieved by our licensees when compared to the same period last year.

Net profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 was $1,684,000 or $0.04 earnings per share compared to a net loss of $236,000 or a loss of $0.01 per share for the corresponding period last year.

In February 2004, the Company closed the transaction processing division together with Customer Support. Affected licensees were successfully transferred to an industry leading solution. There are no revenues or direct costs from these divisions in the quarter to June 30, 2004.

The gross margin for the quarter was 92.9% as compared to 88.0% for the same period last year. The increase represents a more profitable revenue mix due to the closure of the transaction processing division in February 2004.

Operating expenses decreased 22% to $2,283,000 during the first quarter of 2004 compared to $2,911,000 for the same period last year. The primary contributors to this reduction were:



- Elimination of advertising and promotion expenses that were utilized
in launching the worldgaming.com gaming site during the second quarter
of 2003;
- A 32% reduction in other corporate overheads or a reduction of
$113,000, when compared to the same period last year.

The Company has stabilized the cost base over the past twelve months while maintaining its commitment to continue investing in enhanced infrastructure and product offerings for its existing licensees.

In July 2004, the Company settled an outstanding lease liability in respect of an office lease contracted in October of 2001. The outstanding liability in respect of this lease was in excess of CAD $600,000. The settlement in the amount of CAD $175,000 inclusive of fees was paid in July 2004.

Operational update

During the second quarter, the Company launched its multi-player poker product supplied by a third party and integrated onto the World Gaming platform. The product has been launched to its major licensee with roll-out to other licensees expected in the third quarter of 2004.

The enhanced horse-racing product launched in April of 2004, continues to yield growth in volumes. The Company continues to monitor this product for further opportunities. Further development of this product is continuing that will provide licensees with greater options to maximise their net-win.

Towards the end of the second quarter of 2004 the Company began investing in a major upgrade to its hosting facilities in Antigua. The upgrade will involve moving to an Oracle 10g database platform in addition to replacement and expansion of disk storage sub-systems. This platform together with other new hardware infrastructure will produce a more robust operating system with greater scalability.

The Company previously disclosed that during the first quarter of 2004, the Company agreed in principle with Sportingbet Plc to a two-year extension of its existing software license agreement. During the year ending December 31, 2003 Sportingbet represented approximately 80% of the Company`s royalty revenues. In addition, the licensee is a substantial shareholder of the Company owning approximately 29.6 percent of the Company`s outstanding equity capital with the ability to acquire an additional 14 percent interest upon conversion of certain convertible debt of the Company. As previously disclosed, the licensee has indicated that it wishes to explore alternative structures to its existing relationship with the Company. The Company has been working with Sportingbet to resolve this issue and, although no assurances can be given, the Company believes that it will be in a position to update shareholders in respect of the restructured relationship with Sportingbet on Monday August 9, 2004.
