Entain saw 5% yearly growth in net gaming revenue (NGR), to £2.5 billion (US$3.4 billion), in the first half of the 2026, with growth driven by its online operations.
In its 1H26 results released on 13 August, the company revealed its online NGR rose 7% year-on-year, supported by a 9% increase in betting and gaming volume. Australia and the jointly-reported UK and Ireland were among the strongest-performing markets, with online NGR rising 13% in the regions.

The company’s international NGR grew 3% overall year-over-year, with a particularly strong increase in online NGR of 21% in New Zealand.
