LTMC.MI on Tuesday lifted its full-year forecast on adjusted
core profit (EBITDA) between 700 and 730 million euros
($757.61-790.08 million) from a 680-700 million euros range on
the back of strong organic growth in Q2.
The Rome-based gambling firm's second-quarter adjusted core
profit came in at 167.8 million euros, up 17% year-on-year.
"In light of the strong performance, the delivery in cost

upgrade our guidance for FY 2024," CEO Guglielmo Angelozzi said
in a statement.
