The gambling holding company Entain reported on the first six months of 2026, indicating growth in several key metrics.
In particular, compared to last year, Entain's net gaming revenue increased by 7% to £2.55 billion. Its online segment grew by 9% to £1.8 billion, while the physical segment increased by 2% to £695.3 million.
Additionally, Entain's EBITDA stood at £479.3 million. This is 2% less than the previous year, yet still above the forecast. The holding had previously expected it to be £455 million.
According to the holding, the revenue increase was achieved amid high customer activity during the 2026 World Cup. Now, Entain hopes to achieve revenue growth for the entire year as well.
