Bet365 CEO Denise Coates has seen her remuneration cut by a significant 45% but her salary and benefits still reached £150m ($187.8m) due to the excellent performance of the British gambling giant. Its profits soared during the year with turnover up from $4.2b to £4.6b but that element was complemented by gains in the value of the company’s investments, while it sought to cut costs in other areas. The outcome was a $784m pre-tax profit in the year up to March 2024, comparing very favorably to a pre-tax loss of $75.2m for the previous 12 months. Bet365’s group accounts included the English Championship soccer club, Stoke City, for the first time. During the year, the club was separated from Bet365 with separate control passed to John Coates.
