Despite customer-friendly outcomes in September, we delivered record-level customer engagement, strong revenue growth, and margin expansion. Hitting six million monthly active customers was another significant milestone, a reflection of our product innovation and local execution. With continued momentum into Q4, and the highly anticipated launch of Super Coin, we are focused on driving long-term value for our shareholders and enhancing our global position.”Company OverviewWith betting operations spanning 20 jurisdictions and attracting nearly 5 million monthly customers, Super Group operates global online sports betting and gaming platforms through its two primary offerings: the Betway sports betting brand and Spin multi-brand casino portfolio.Revenue GrowthExamining a company’s long-term performance can provide clues about its quality. Any business can put up a good quarter or two, but the best consistently grow over the long haul. Over the last four years, Super Group grew its sales at a 11.7% compounded annual growth rate. Although this growth is acceptable on an absolute basis, it fell short of our standards for the consumer discretionary sector, which enjoys a number of secular tailwinds. We at StockStory place the most emphasis on long-term growth, but within consumer discretionary, a stretched historical view may miss a company riding a successful new product or trend. Super Group’s annualized revenue growth of 20.9% over the last two years is above its four-year trend, but we were still disappointed by the results. Note that COVID hurt Super Group’s business in 2020 and part of 2021, and it bounced back in a big way thereafter. <figure></figure>Super Group also reports its number of customers, which reached 5.51 million in the latest quarter. Over the last two years, Super Group’s customer base averaged 22.3% year-on-year growth. Because this number is in line with its revenue growth, we can see the average customer spent roughly the same amount each year on the company’s products and services. <figure></figure>This quarter, Super Group reported robust year-on-year revenue growth of 25.7%, and its $557 million of revenue topped Wall Street estimates by 9.2%. Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 9.2% over the next 12 months, a deceleration versus the last two years. This projection doesn't excite us and indicates its products and services will face some demand challenges.

It’s also useful for comparing profitability across companies with different levels of debt and tax rates because it excludes interest and taxes. Super Group’s operating margin has risen over the last 12 months and averaged 9.7% over the last two years. The company’s higher efficiency is a breath of fresh air, but its suboptimal cost structure means it still sports inadequate profitability for a consumer discretionary business. In Q3, Super Group generated an operating margin profit margin of 23.5%, up 17.9 percentage points year on year. This increase was a welcome development and shows it was more efficient. Earnings Per ShareRevenue trends explain a company’s historical growth, but the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) points to the profitability of that growth – for example, a company could inflate its sales through excessive spending on advertising and promotions. Sadly for Super Group, its EPS declined by 6% annually over the last four years while its revenue grew by 11.7%. However, its operating margin actually improved during this time, telling us that non-fundamental factors such as interest expenses and taxes affected its ultimate earnings. In Q3, Super Group reported EPS of $0.19, up from $0.02 in the same quarter last year. This print easily cleared analysts’ estimates, and shareholders should be content with the results. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects Super Group’s full-year EPS of $0.44 to grow 73.8%. Key Takeaways from Super Group’s Q3 ResultsWe were impressed by how significantly Super Group blew past analysts’ EBITDA expectations this quarter. We were also excited its adjusted operating income outperformed Wall Street’s estimates by a wide margin. Zooming out, we think this was a good print with some key areas of upside. The stock remained flat at $11.72 immediately after reporting. Super Group had an encouraging quarter, but one earnings result doesn’t necessarily make the stock a buy. Let’s see if this is a good investment. When making that decision, it’s important to consider its valuation, business qualities, as well as what has happened in the latest quarter.
