Inspired Reports Third Quarter 2025 Results

Strong Interactive Momentum and Strategic Evolution Position Inspired for Growth and Margin Expansion

NEW YORK, Nov. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (“Inspired” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: INSE), a leading B2B provider of gaming content, technology, hardware and services, today reported financial results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025 and provided an update on accelerating the Company’s operational strategy.

“Inspired delivered a strong quarter driven by strategic execution, digital expansion, and product innovation,” said Brooks Pierce, President and CEO of Inspired. “Our sustained momentum in Interactive continues to build, delivering another record quarter. We’ve built a powerful distribution network and brand franchises that players love, and now we’re scaling that success. We’re gaining market share in our largest markets, and we expect further gains as we roll out key titles within our leading brand franchises and introduce industry-first new multiplayer experiences. Our strong presence at G2E reinforced this momentum, highlighted by Hybrid Dealer winning the Global Gaming Award for Innovative Product of the Year, an amazing achievement for a company of our size.

Our Gaming business continues to perform well and gain share, including installations of our terminals with new customers, while Virtual Sports has stabilized and is positioned for year-over-year growth in 2026 with several new customers and more localized content.”

Lorne Weil, Executive Chairman of Inspired, continued, “The divestiture of our holiday parks business marks the next step in our strategic evolution, further supporting our transition toward a more digital, scalable, and higher-margin business. With strong momentum across Interactive and Gaming and the benefits of a more agile, capital-light structure in 2026, we expect digital mix to increase and Adjusted EBITDA margins to expand, more than offsetting the Adjusted EBITDA reduction from the divestiture.

We have a strong foundation and a clear plan to drive revenue growth, strengthen operational leverage, and drive free cash flow generation—positioning us to deliver sustainable, long-term value for our shareholders. Our new share repurchase program is further evidence of the Board’s confidence in our strategy, growth prospects, and ability to generate significant free cash flow, underscoring our commitment to disciplined capital allocation and strong shareholder returns.”

Recent Highlights

Advancing our Strategic Evolution

Inspired has been undergoing a significant strategic evolution, improving the quality of earnings, strengthening operations, and aligning organizational structures to best position the Company to capitalize on future growth opportunities and deliver shareholder value. In the presentation today, management will outline key initiatives to deliver on this transformation, including:

Outlook

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, to analyze our operating performance. We use these financial measures to manage our business on a day-to-day basis. We believe that these measures are also commonly used in our industry to measure performance. For these reasons, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide expanded insight into our business, in addition to standard U.S. GAAP financial measures. There are no uniform rules for defining and using non-GAAP financial measures, and as a result the measures we use may not be comparable to measures used by other companies, even if they have similar labels. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. You should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP financial statements.

We define our non-GAAP financial measures as follows:

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income and income tax expense.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income and income tax expense, and other additional exclusions and adjustments (see Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation table). Such additional excluded amounts include stock-based compensation U.S. GAAP charges where the associated liability is expected to be settled in stock, and changes in the value of earnout liabilities and income and expenditure in relation to legacy portions of the business (being those portions where trading no longer occurs) including closed defined benefit pension schemes. Additional adjustments are made for items considered outside the normal course of business, including (1) restructuring costs, which include charges attributable to employee severance, management changes, restructuring, dual running costs, costs related to facility closures and integration costs, (2) merger and acquisition costs, (3) gains or losses not in the ordinary course of business and (4) the costs of the restatement of previously issued financial statements.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA, when considered along with other performance measures, is a particularly useful performance measure, because it focuses on certain operating drivers of the business, including sales growth, operating costs, selling and administrative expense and other operating income and expense. We believe Adjusted EBITDA can provide a more complete understanding of our operating results and the trends to which we are subject, and an enhanced overall understanding of our financial performance and prospects for the future. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of liquidity or cash flows from operations or a measure comparable to net income or loss, because it does not take into account certain aspects of our operating performance (for example, it excludes non-recurring gains and losses which are not deemed to be a normal part of underlying business activities). Our use of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to the use by other companies of similarly termed measures. Management compensates for these limitations by using Adjusted EBITDA as only one of several measures for evaluating our operating performance. In addition, capital expenditures, which affect depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and income tax benefit (expense), are evaluated separately by management.

Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income (loss) excluding the effects of certain exclusions and adjustments. Such excluded amounts include income and expenditure in relation to legacy portions of the business (being those portions where trading no longer occurs) including closed defined benefit pension schemes. Additional adjustments are made for items considered outside the normal course of business, including (1) restructuring costs, which include charges attributable to employee severance, management changes, restructuring, dual running costs, costs related to facility closures and integration costs, (2) merger and acquisition costs and (3) gains or losses not in the ordinary course of business. These items have been adjusted to reflect the tax impact from excluding them from net income (loss).

Adjusted Net Income per diluted share is computed by dividing the Adjusted Net Income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including the effects of any potentially dilutive securities, including RSUs, using the treasury stock method, and convertible debt or convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method, unless the inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Functional Currency at Constant rate. Currency impacts shown have been calculated as the current-period average GBP:USD rate less the equivalent average rate in the prior year quarter, multiplied by the current period amount in our functional currency (GBP). The remaining difference, referred to as functional currency at constant rate, is calculated as the difference in our functional currency, multiplied by the prior year quarter average GBP: USD rate, as a proxy for functional currency at constant rate movement.

Currency Movement represents the difference between the results in our reporting currency (USD) and the results on a functional currency at constant rate basis.

Reconciliations from net income (loss), as shown in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss, to Adjusted EBITDA are shown below.
