Where Entain’s value sits
What the name is carrying, and the figures this company is tracked on.
The Brand Capital Score is 0 to 100. It combines the 6 drivers below into one number. Every company on the board is scored the same way. It answers one question: how much of this company’s worth its brand and its customers have built, and how much it has to buy again every quarter.
Entain scores 86, brand equity 87. That is 2nd of 21 operators. A buyer shortlists three to five names and compares only those, so the score reads as a position in the field.
Brand equity 87 at group level hides big differences between brands. Ladbrokes carries strong heritage value (with a declining customer satisfaction score), Bwin has diluted value from over-extension, and PartyPoker has a loyal but shrinking base.
Managing the brand portfolio is the priority.
- Brazil's ban: Brazil was about 5% of Entain's 2026 online net gaming revenue. Entain now expects the low end of its £910M to £960M EBITDA (profit before interest, tax and write-offs) range and 4% to 6% net revenue growth, and will comply with the ban while Congress decides.
- H1 2026 (13 Aug): group NGR (net gaming revenue) up 5% at constant currency, online NGR up 7% for a ninth straight quarter of online growth, group NGR about £2.5B; EBITDA from continuing operations £479M, down 2% as reported when the UK remote gaming duty rose to 40%, partly recovered by cost action. About 500 roles cut (about 2% of staff) to offset roughly half the tax, and a CEE exit begun. BetMGM (the 50% joint venture) posted Q2 net revenue of $711M (+3%), with iGaming about 70% of the mix while online sports stayed flat. Full-year online NGR forecast held at 5 to 7%.
