BetMGM, one of the leading sports betting and iGaming operators in North America, jointly owned by Entain plc and MGM Resorts International has provided an update on First Half of 2023 (“1H 2023”) performance and outlook for full-year 2023.

Net revenue from operations of $944 million, on track to deliver at the upper end of previous guidance range for FY 2023 revenue of $1.8 to $2.0 billion. 1H same-state growth of 25% in net revenue from digital operations. Reached the key milestone of positive EBITDA for 2Q 2023. Improved same state CPAs by 8% in 1H 2023 year on year.

Entain’s acquisition of pricing and risk specialist Angstrom, announced on July 17th, will enhance BetMGM’s sports betting offering, particularly in the fast-growing markets of parlay and in-play wagering, and provide players with a greatly improved experience.

Adam Greenblatt, Chief Executive Officer of BetMGM, commented:”I am pleased with the significant progress we have made during the first half of 2023 as we continue our strong growth and remain on our path to profitability. Our financial guidance for the year remains on track – we expect to deliver $1.8 to $2.0 billion in full year revenue, as well as to be EBITDA positive in the second half of 2023.

In fact, we have already achieved positive EBITDA for the full second quarter of this year. Our focus remains on building a sustainable, scalable and returns focused business with leading products that our players enjoy responsibly. We look forward to the remainder of the year, buoyed by ongoing product improvements, tremendous support from our shareholders providing access to new assets and partnerships, and – above all – our extraordinary team at BetMGM.”
