ClearBridge Small Cap Value Strategy made the following comment about Gambling.com Group Limited (NASDAQ:GAMB) in its Q3 2023 investor letter:
“In the communication services sector, Gambling.com Group Limited (NASDAQ:GAMB) was our top individual performer. A leading provider of digital marketing services to the global online gambling industry, the company saw its stock price rise after announcing second-quarter earnings that exceeded analysts’ expectations and raising its full-year guidance, and as the football sports betting season began. Gambling.com has rapidly reached profitability in its North America lead-generation business for sports betting sites, which continues to offer compelling growth opportunities as more U.S. states legalize online gambling, while its mature European business continues to see growth from improved search engine optimization. Ultimately, we believe the company’s low marketing and capital expenditures, combined with the attractive opportunities from growth in online sports wagers, will make Gambling.com a strong long-term compounder for the portfolio.”
