Supreme Ventures is reporting increased profits for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
The group reported a net profit after tax of $867.95 million, representing an increase of $155.99 million or 21.91 per cent over the first quarter last year.
The higher profits were driven by a $218.46 million increase in gaming revenue, $113.99 million increase in interest income, as well as lower selling and administrative expenses of $180.88 million.
These were offset by an increase in finance costs of $82.20 million, impacted by interest costs associated with the additional bond issue in the third quarter of 2023.

Meanwhile, the gaming company's board has approved a dividend amount of 30.16 cents per stock unit.
It will be paid to all shareholders on record as at Friday, May 10, 2024.
