Playtech reported revenue of €425.1m for the first half of 2026, up 10% from €387.0m a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA rose 77% to €162.5m, and net profit reached €98.1m.
The Americas drove the performance. B2B revenue in the US and Canada climbed 161%, while Latin America added 14%. Growth in the US came from the Hard Rock Digital partnership and the launch of Fast Motor Racing content with Hard Rock Bet in Florida. Playtech now holds igaming licences in six US states. In Latin America, Caliente Interactive in Mexico and Wplay in Colombia outperformed expectations.
The B2B segment generated €394.8m, up 14% year-on-year. Europe excluding the UK grew 2%, and the rest of the world rose 23% on South African gains. The UK was the only decline: B2B revenue fell 8% to €59m after Remote Gaming Duty increases and client-specific changes.
B2C revenue, including Sun Bingo, dropped 5% to €31.7m. The company cut marketing spend following tax rises and tighter regulation.
CEO Mor Weizer said results "significantly exceed" initial forecasts. Playtech confirmed full-year 2026 EBITDA guidance above €270m, the midpoint of a €250–300m range. Second-half EBITDA will fall short of the first half, but the company is entering new regulated markets and investing in technology including AI.
