Analyst projections of the future price of Playtech stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
H1 adjusted EBITDA rose 77% to €162.5 million, and Playtech raised its 2026 outlook to at least €270 million, well above the market expectation reported in July. That points to a sharp earnings recovery. (MarketScreener, Reuters)
US and Canada revenue increased 161% to €56.9 million in H1, driven by Hard Rock Digital and broader operator demand. Playtech’s expanding North American partnerships give it a strong foothold in a fast-growing regulated market. (SBC News)
Caliente contributed €30 million of investment income in H1, while free cash flow reached €101 million and Playtech ended June with €39 million of net cash. This adds a meaningful cash and earnings stream beyond software fees. (Stock Analysis)
Playtech expects H2 adjusted EBITDA to be lower than H1 as Hard Rock Digital’s unusually strong contribution falls to a lower, more sustainable level. This makes recent US earnings less dependable as a guide to the near-term run rate. (Playtech)
The UK’s higher Remote Gaming Duty is weighing on domestic trading: UK B2B revenue fell 8% in H1, and Playtech is reviewing its Sun Bingo business after the tax rise threatened its profitability. This may leave further pressure on a weaker part of the business. (iGaming Business, iGamingWorld)
Playtech’s planned Brazil opportunity has been pushed back by political sensitivity around gambling and is now expected to launch only around the start of 2027. The company is investing ahead of the deal, so delays could defer returns while costs continue. (iGaming Business, iGamingExpert)
