UK gaming firm Playtech forecast 2026 adjusted core profit above market expectations, driven by strong growth in the United States and Latin America.
Strong US and Latin America Growth
Playtech expects 2026 adjusted core profit of at least €270 million, above company-compiled analysts’ average expectations of €219 million. The company’s performance in the US, driven by its partnership with Hard Rock Digital, has been exceptionally strong.
Playtech’s adjusted core profit is expected to rise 70% year-over-year to €155 million for the six months to June 30. However, the company expects second-half core profit to be lower than the first half, as it invests in a Brazil partnership and absorbs the impact of higher gambling taxes in the UK.
