Successful strategic execution delivered stronger than expected 2025 performance and EBITDA inflection
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Feb. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- BetMGM LLC ("BetMGM"), a leading sports betting and iGaming operator across North America, jointly owned by MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) ("MGM Resorts") and Entain plc (LSE: ENT) ("Entain"), is today providing an update on its Fiscal Year 2025 ("FY 2025") performance.
Adam Greenblatt, Chief Executive Officer of BetMGM, commented:
"2025 was a record year for BetMGM, outperforming expectations with the execution of our refined strategy coming together at scale. Q4 2025 saw record performances, completing a year where both iGaming and Online Sports achieved step change results, reflecting robust engagement, improved player economics, sharper player management, and continued platform and product enhancements. BetMGM's meaningfully improved profitability and material EBITDA generation now sees us returning cash to our parent companies and marks a clear inflection in our growth trajectory. Looking ahead to 2026 and beyond, the strong underlying metrics and health of the business continue to reinforce our confidence in our outlook as we enter the next phase of growth. As the industry continues to evolve, we will continue to focus on winning the BetMGM way."

Notes:
1: Net Revenue, Contribution, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are based on how management analyzes the performance of the business, which are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA reflects the impact of employee long-term incentive compensation programs. Refer to "Non-GAAP Financial Information" section below for additional detail.
2: BetMGM's independent registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed or performed any procedures with respect to these estimates. During the course of the preparation of BetMGM's audited financial statements, BetMGM and its auditors may identify items that would require material adjustments to these estimates. As a result, these estimates constitute forward-looking statements and, therefore, investors are cautioned that they are subject to risks and uncertainties, including possible adjustments.
3: Totals may not sum due to rounding.
4: Handle reflects the total Online Sports handle (cash + bonus bets) taken in the period.
5: Average Monthly Actives are equal to the average of unique monthly actives over the period, regardless of product played; monthly actives include players that place 1+ bets within the month.
6: BetMGM operates iGaming and Online Sports Betting in five markets and Sports Betting only (combined online and retail) in 25 markets.
7: Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) market share consists of last three months ending December, November, or October 2025 as latest reported for U.S. sports betting markets where BetMGM was active (online and retail), last three months ending December 2025 for U.S. iGaming markets where BetMGM was active, and last three months ending December 2025 for the Ontario market. Internal estimates used where operator-specific results are unavailable.
8: Active Player Days are equal to the sum of the total player days over the period divided by the sum of total monthly actives over the same period.
9: Handle and NGR per Active are equal to each respective metric over the period divided by the sum of the total monthly actives during the same period.
10: Includes both Online Sports and Retail handle for Nevada.
11: Represents the increase in Nevada digital First-Time Depositors that have gone on to be active in another BetMGM state after visiting Nevada following the launch of Single Account Single Wallet in August 2024.
12: Parent Fees is the operating expense to BetMGM for the provision of certain licenses and services by affiliates of MGM and Entain. Parent Fees are governed by agreements entered into at the time of formation of the venture, and became effective upon BetMGM achieving long-term profitability. Reference to parents throughout includes our MGM and Entain parent entities and their MGM and Entain affiliates.
13: Minimum unrestricted cash balance of $100 - 125 million may be adjusted as the business continues to scale and drives increased working capital needs.
Supplementary financial disclosures
BetMGM has updated its financial disclosure practices, aiming to provide investors with more comprehensive and transparent information regarding its financial position and operations. These enhanced disclosures will include a more granular breakdown across different segments to provide greater insight into performance drivers.
Forward-looking statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which involve substantial risks and/or uncertainties, including those described in the MGM Resorts International public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. BetMGM has based forward-looking statements on management's current expectations, assumptions and projections about future events and trends. Examples of these statements include, but are not limited to, BetMGM's expectations regarding its financial outlook (including forecasted net revenues from operations, EBITDA, and expected distributions to Entain and MGM Resorts), projected market share position, its expected growth in new and existing jurisdictions, product capabilities, and achievement of key milestones. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Included among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such forward-looking statements are: the significant competition within the gaming and entertainment industry; BetMGM's ability to execute on its business plan; changes in applicable laws or regulations, particularly with respect to iGaming and online sports betting; BetMGM's ability to manage growth and access the capital needed to support its growth plans; and BetMGM's ability to obtain the required licenses, permits and other approvals necessary to grow in existing and new jurisdictions. In providing forward-looking statements, BetMGM is not undertaking any duty or obligation to update these statements publicly as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. If BetMGM updates one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that it will make additional updates with respect to those other forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
In this press release we provide certain financial measures, including Net Revenue, Contribution, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, from operations, which have not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. BetMGM believes these measures, which it uses for its own analysis of operations, are useful to supplement the results presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures, which may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies, should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. If BetMGM presented Net Revenue from operations in accordance with GAAP, then BetMGM would present the revenues associated with its Nevada digital and retail sports betting operations differently, until such time as BetMGM is licensed as a Nevada gaming operator. Currently under GAAP, its calculation of Net Revenue would be on a basis net of operating costs, such that the GAAP reported Net Revenue would be lower than the Net Revenue reported herein, with net income remaining the same. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before the impact of interest income or expense (net), income tax provision or benefit, and depreciation and amortization and Adjusted EBITDA is further adjusted to add back the Parent Fees. We define Contribution as Net Revenue, less cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) and marketing acquisition spend.
