BetMGM lifts outlook; Entain revenue jump underlines U.S. momentum
BetMGM raised its full‑year revenue and profit forecasts — now projecting at least $2.75 billion in revenue and $200 million in core profit — citing stronger-than-expected Q3 demand in its online sports and iGaming channels. Reuters
The firm also announced plans to return at least $200 million to its joint owners (Entain and MGM Resorts) before year-end. Reuters
Meanwhile, its parent joint venture partner Entain posted a 6 % rise in third-quarter net gaming revenue, largely driven by growth in its U.S. operations via BetMGM, and reaffirmed its annual profit guidance. Reuters+1
