EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

GGR generated in the casino sector represented 66.4% of the total amount of GGR generated in FY2017

compared to the other legalised gambling sectors (betting on sport and horse racing, LPM & bingo). A 4.5%

increase in GGR generated by the casino sector has been recorded for the period between FY2014

(R 16 497 594 915) to FY2015 (R 17 234 928 081), by 5.8% to FY2016 (R18 236 685 695), however,

decreased by 1.8% to FY2017 (R 17 900 747 071) (based on current prices). The slight decrease in the

generation of GGR from FY2016 to FY2017 can, amongst others, be attributed to the decrease of operational

positions in Gauteng, Western Cape, Mpumalanga, Northern Cape, Eastern Cape and Free State.

GGR generated in the betting on horse racing and sport sector represents 18.9% of the total amount of GGR

generated in FY2017 compared to the other legalised gambling sectors (casino, LPM & bingo). Noticeable

increases in GGR generated in the betting industry have been recorded i.e. an increase of 22.2% from FY2014

to FY2015, by 28.5% from FY2015 to FY2016, and by 14.3% from FY2016 to FY2017. This is mainly as a

result of increases in the generation of GGR by bookmakers offering betting on sport. GGR generated by

bookmakers offering betting on sport increased by 36.0% from FY2013 to FY2014, by 59.9% to FY2015, by

50.9% to FY2016, and by 22.0% to FY2017.

GGR generated in the LPM sector represented 10.0% of the total amount of GGR generated by all licensed

gambling modes in FY2017. Significant increases in GGR generated have been recorded in the LPM industry -

by 19.6% from R1 738 648 662 in FY2014 to R 2 079 338 389 in FY2015, by 13.7% from FY2015 to FY2016

(R 2 363 501 788) and by 14.1% to R2 696 846 443 in FY2017. The increase in GGR can be attributed to the

increase of active LPMs in all provinces.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (continued ….)

GGR generated in the bingo sector represents 4.7% of the total amount of GGR generated by all

licensed gambling modes during FY2017. GGR increased by 67.7% from R 436 770 125 in FY2013 to

R 732 321 861 in FY2014 mainly as a result of the roll-out of bingo in North West and Eastern Cape

provinces during FY2014. An increase by 52.5% was recorded in the generation of GGR from FY2014 to

FY2015 (R1 116 673 081) mainly as a result of the roll-out of bingo in KwaZulu-Natal. By comparison, a

decrease of 16.1% in GGR generated in the bingo industry was recorded from FY2015 to FY2016 (R

936 166 348). This is mainly as a result of less GGR generated in Gauteng during FY2016 compared to

FY2015. In contrast, an increase by 36.6% was recorded in the generation of GGR from FY2016 to

FY2017 (R 1 278 664 383). The increase in operational bingo positions in North West and Eastern Cape

may be linked to the high increase in GGR.

Overall, GGR increased by 9.6% from R21,8 billion in FY2014 to R 23,9 billion in FY2015, by 8.8% to

R26,0 billion in FY2016, and by 3.8% to R27,0 billion in FY2017. A total amount of R 26 961 888 560 in

GGR was generated during FY2017. During FY2017 casinos accounted for the highest GGR generated,

being 66.4% as compared to other gambling modes. Compared to all other provinces, Gauteng at a

41.1% share, accounted for the highest amount of GGR generated.

In general, the collection of taxes/levies increased by 10.7% from R2,2 billion to R2,5 billion in FY2015,

by 11.9% to R2,8 billion in FY2016, however decreased by 1,0% to R2,7 billion in FY2017. A total amount

of R 2 743 112 930 in taxes/levies was collected during FY2017. During FY2017, at 66.5%, casinos

contributed the highest amount of taxes/levies paid by comparison with other gambling modes. At 36.6

Gauteng accounted for the highest amount of taxes/levies paid compared to all other provinces.
