BetMGM updates 2025 revenue guidance
BetMGM upped its fiscal year 2025 financial estimate, citing continued strength in iGaming and online sports revenue. The upward revision follows positive trading up to and including June 13 and Entain plc's statutory regulatory market notice.
The firm announced that the 34% year-on-year net revenue growth it experienced during Q1 2025 has carried over into Q2 based on increased betting handle and broader user engagement. BetMGM has thus updated its full-year net revenue estimate to a minimum of $2.6 billion from its previous estimate of $2.4 to $2.5 billion.
EBITDA is currently anticipated to be at least $100 million, better than the prior guidance of a positive result. The company reaffirmed that its online sports segment contributions are estimated to be positive for the year, supplemented by strong returns from its iGaming segment. The upgraded guidance indicates increasing confidence in BetMGM's strategic direction and operating performance.
