Gambling software supplier Playtech has raised its 2026 adjusted EBITDA forecast to more than €300 million (US$337 million), after trading between July and October ran ahead of expectations, supported by strong demand across the Americas.
The new guidance is above the €279 million (US$313 million) average of seven analysts tracked by Playtech, whose estimates had ranged from €271 million (US$304 million) to €285 million (US$320 million), Finance Magnates reported.
Playtech CEO Mor Weizer said the company’s US performance had remained strong, contributing significantly to profitability and cash flow. Being first to market with Hard Rock Digital, Hard Rock’s online sports betting and iGaming business, on a product based on past motor racing results materially boosted first-half revenue, and that revenue has held up so far in the second half.
Weizer also said Mexico and Colombia benefited following the 2026 men’s FIFA World Cup.
