Playtech Sees FY Adjusted EBITDA Above €300M, Exceeding Expectations

Playtech reported strong trading results for the period between July 1 and October 31, 2026, driven primarily by robust performance in the Americas. As a result, the company now expects its Adjusted EBITDA for the full year ending December 31, 2026, to exceed €300 million, surpassing the previous analyst consensus mean of €279 million. The company noted that it is absorbing a three-month EBITDA impact in 2026 due to regulatory developments in Brazil, while also managing the full-year impact of increased UK Remote Gaming Duty and rising taxation across other European markets. Management warned that if the current market shutdown in Brazil is not lifted, a more significant impact is expected in 2027. Additionally, the company highlighted that while its Past Motor Racing (PMR) content with Hard Rock Digital provided a material boost to revenues in 2026, increased competition from third-party suppliers is expected to reduce its market share in this segment moving into 2027.
