With China and the US locked in a trade war, Chinese companies are thriving. Fortune Magazine recent unveiled its 2019 Global 500 list, which ranks the largest companies in the world by revenue.
We estimate the global social casino game market grew 1.9% quarter-on-quarter or 10.9% year-on-year in Q4 2018. We estimate social casino revenues generated on Facebook were down 1.5% sequentially, while mobile was up 2.6% quarter-on-quarter.
For 2018, we estimate the social casino market grew 15.0% from 2017 to reach $5.20bn, which was essentially in line with our forecast.
*Top 10 Most Popular Online Payment Solutions No matter how you decide to make money online, you’ll need one thing: a reliable, safe, user-friendly payment solution. Here are 10 of the best.
*The extremely successful Las Vegas Sands Corporation, parent-company of famous Las Vegas casino-resorts, The Venetian and The Palazzo, was the top-ranking casino company in terms of revenue.
*A company that makes gambling a vacation choice rather than a lifestyle one. Sure they have a lot of casinos on their books, but also a lot of hotels and resorts. (plus quite a few golf courses.) Las Vegas Sands 1 – Las Vegas Sands (USA) – $11.69 Billion. The home of gambling, so, of course, they are the biggest company.
*The point is this: social casino gaming is a big deal. So big, in fact, that many traditional poker and casino companies are buying their way into this space. We have a few examples later on, but the most current example is the World Poker Tour.
Performance among the top 15 social casino publishers was mixed. Key standouts this quarter included SG Digital, Huuuge Games, PlayStudios and High 5 Games. GSN Games and Greentube (owned by Novomatic) also saw strong sequential growth but were less impressive on a year-on-year basis.
GSN Games moved up in our ranking charts to the #8 position (previously #9) and is now ahead of Tencent. Ameristar casino job openings.

Company highlights
Playtika
We estimate social casino revenues were up 0.5% from Q3 and 15.3% from Q4 2018. This marks the second consecutive quarter that its social casino business has been stagnant. We believe this is partly due to a greater focus and opportunities from adjacent categories such as Jelly Button, the Wooga acquisition, and the just-announced acquisition of Supertreat. It’s also important to remember that Playtika’s social casino games saw exceptional growth in H1 2018 and it’s not under any pressure to meet quarterly earnings guidance. We don’t believe the H2 deceleration is of any major concern and believe it’s more related to seasonality and the timing release of new features. In terms of individual titles, we believe Slotomania was the weakest title in its portfolio this period while House of Fun and Caesars Slots were the fastest growing. In terms of KPIs, we believe Playtika’s consolidated DAUs and ARPDAU was essentially flat this quarter.
Aristocrat (Product Madness and Big Fish Games)
Aristocrat remains the second largest social casino publisher worldwide with a 12.7% market share, which includes a full quarter contribution from Big Fish (social casino only). Pro forma gross revenues were up 2.4% quarter-on-quarter and 14.7% year-on-year. In terms of breakdown, we believe Product Madness was up 0.8% sequentially, or 12.3% year-on-year, driven by Lightning Link and partially offset by some weakness in Heart of Vegas and FaFaFa Gold. Big Fish social casino revenues were up an estimated 6.2% sequentially and 21.3% from the prior year, largely driven by growth from Jackpot Magic Slots (we estimate 23% quarter-on-quarter). Looking ahead, we believe the majority of growth in FY19 will be driven by newer games such as Cashman Casino, Lightning Link and Jackpot Magic Slots.
SG Digital
Scientific Games’ social arm saw total revenue (B2C only) increase 7.7% from Q3 2018, or 18.5% from the prior year. In terms of individual game performance, we believe Jackpot Party Casino was up in the high single digits on a sequential basis thanks to a major “re-launch” of the game in late 2Q18 (this marks the second major iteration/relaunch of this franchise; the last one occurred in 4Q15). Additional growth drivers included Bingo Showdown, which has been gaining market share in the bingo category, and Monopoly Slots. We believe Monopoly Slots continues to show a very promising growth trajectory, with strong underlying KPIs, and is clearly one of the more successful new standalone slot game launches of CY18.
DoubleU Games (DoubleDown Interactive)
DoubleU Games is the third largest social casino publisher worldwide, with total gross revenues up 2.4% quarter-on-quarter and 14.8% year-on-year. We estimate Double Down Interactive revenues on a standalone basis were up 2.7% sequentially, or 14.4% year-on-year, largely driven by its franchise game Double Down Casino. We further estimate DoubleU Games revenues on a standalone basis were up 15.3% from Q4 2017, largely due to DoubleU Casino. This marks the fifth consecutive quarter that pro forma revenues have grown on a sequential and y/y basis, and it appears some of the strategic changes made at Double Down are paying off.
Zynga
The Zynga Poker operator saw social casino bookings decline 3.3% quarter-on-quarter and 6.7% on a year-on-year basis. Zynga Poker declined on a sequential basis and is still recovering from some of the negative Facebook Connect issues that plagued it and a number of other companies in CY18. Zynga’s franchise slot titles Hit it Rich and Wizard of Oz were up on a sequential basis, but overall slot revenues were still down due to weakness in its legacy games (Black Diamond, Spin it Rich, etc). Overall, it was a fairly uneventful quarter for Zynga’s social casino business as the company was making news in other areas including the high-profile acquisition of Small Giant Games. In terms of KPIs we believe social casino DAUs were down, while ARPDAU improved. It’s worth noting that we have made some adjustments to our historical KPI estimates for Zynga’s social casino business.Largest Casino Companies 2018
Huuuge Games
The San Francisco-headquartered operator saw its revenues increase 5.2% quarter-on-quarter or 38.9% year-on-year. Growth in Q4 was led by Billionaire Casino (with revene up 11% from Q3), and to a lesser extent its franchise game Huuuge Casino (up 2.5% quarter-on-quarter). Overall, Huuuge Games has been one of the breakthrough companies over the past two years and the fastest growing in FY18, with 53% top-line growth from 2017. That being said, the hockey stick growth phase appears to have ended, so obtaining a top five position will be no easy feat.Largest Social Casino Companies Closing
PlayStudios
The MGM-backed PlayStudios saw revenues increase a healthy 10.0% on a sequential basis, or 29.0% from the prior year. Growth in Q4 was driven by POP Slots, which continues to demonstrate very healthy growth trends, and a revamped myKonami. The company’s myVegas franchise was essentially flat in the period, while the company’s latest release, Royal Charm Slots (co-published with King), remains in beta. Overall it was another strong year for PlayStudios, with its top line growing 22%.Largest Casino Companies In Us
