Good news for Loto Quebec.
Revenue and profits were higher for the second quarter in a row.
The Crown corporation says the lion's share of its increase has been in lotteries, with light increases in revenue at three of Quebec's four casinos.
It posted a 12.4 percent decline in profits in the first three quarters of 2014.
That led to a change in planning.
It says it expects to cut costs in 2018 by, among other things, moving its Quebec City office to cheaper commercial space.
