In October, the fines were halted as Kindred declared it would no longer operate in Norway.<\/p>\n<p>However, in November, Lotteritilsynet reinstated the daily fines. <\/p>\n<p>The final verdict was reversed in December.<\/p>\n<p>Tj\u00e4rnstr\u00f6m highlighted how Kindred&#8217;s alterations to its operations in Norway this quarter affected earnings.<\/p>\n<p>Concerning Belgium, Tj\u00e4rnstr\u00f6m clarified that regulatory modifications enacted in 2019 had a substantial effect on Kindred&#8217;s performance in the market.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Looking back at 2019, the Belgian market introduced limitations for the first time,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;When these regulatory adjustments occurred, it also raised the question of how to utilize experience as rapidly as possible to address these changes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is also crucial for a fair playing field in the Belgian market, and we believe that we have implemented these procedures in a more compliant manner than our rivals.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>**Transforming Obstacles into Opportunities**<\/p>\n<p>Tj\u00e4rnstr\u00f6m continued to emphasize the significance of swiftly adapting to regulatory modifications to eliminate any potential negative effects in the future.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But by adapting to these regulatory changes more quickly than our competitors, we can transform these changes into a competitive edge in the long term.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Tj\u00e4rnstr\u00f6m pointed to developments in 2019 &#8211; when Sweden launched its regulated gambling market &#8211; as the reason the company was able to return to financial success in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In 2019, it took us a few quarters to regain growth, but then we observed strong growth in the subsequent quarters.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>**Looking Forward** <\/p>\n<p>Tj\u00e4rnstr\u00f6m acknowledged Kindred&#8217;s achievements in the Netherlands, France, and Sweden during the recent period, stating that Kindred intends to &#8220;regain its top spot&#8221; in the upcoming year. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Dutch operation is performing exceptionally well. We are certain that our strategies are sound and we are progressing towards our objectives,&#8221; he remarked.<\/p>\n<p>Kindred was absent from the Dutch market for a period of nine months prior to July 2022, as the company awaited authorization from the country&#8217;s regulatory body in June. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The chief executive of Kindreds, Henrik Tj\u00e4rnstr\u00f6m, declared that &#8220;all options are on the table&#8221; when it comes to cost reductions during the company&#8217;s fourth-quarter trading update earnings call earlier&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.8 (Yoast SEO v22.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kindreds CEO:<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Kindreds CEO Henrik Tj\u00e4rnstr\u00f6m says\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/27\/kindred-to-cut-costs-as-revenue-falls-short-of-expectations\/\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Kindred to Cut Costs as Revenue Falls Short of Expectations\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Kindreds CEO Henrik Tj\u00e4rnstr\u00f6m says\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/27\/kindred-to-cut-costs-as-revenue-falls-short-of-expectations\/\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Stay Ahead of the Curve with Our Licensed Online Casino News\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-06-27T09:14:32+00:00\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"admin\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"admin\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Estimated reading time\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"4 minutes\" class=\"yoast-seo-meta-tag\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/27\/kindred-to-cut-costs-as-revenue-falls-short-of-expectations\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/27\/kindred-to-cut-costs-as-revenue-falls-short-of-expectations\/\",\"name\":\"Kindreds CEO:\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-06-27T09:14:32+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-27T09:14:32+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/#\/schema\/person\/7fe3f8540cfe191b1464d5c1c2f0a7f0\"},\"description\":\"Kindreds CEO Henrik Tj\u00e4rnstr\u00f6m says\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/27\/kindred-to-cut-costs-as-revenue-falls-short-of-expectations\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-GB\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/27\/kindred-to-cut-costs-as-revenue-falls-short-of-expectations\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/27\/kindred-to-cut-costs-as-revenue-falls-short-of-expectations\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Homepage\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Kindred to Cut Costs as Revenue Falls Short of Expectations\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/luckycharmssweepstakescasinonodepositbonus.icu\/\",\"name\":\"Stay Ahead of the Curve with Our Licensed Online Casino News\",\"description\":\"Indulge in the excitement of licensed online gambling with our up-to-date news, comprehensive reviews, and informative insights.
