The position

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 is a weighted composite of the 6 drivers below. Every company on the board is scored on the same basis. What it answers: how much of this company’s worth is built by its brand and its customers, rather than bought each quarter.

Entain scores 86, brand equity 87. That is 2nd of 21 operators, never the whole market, because a buyer shortlists three to five names. It is a position, not a grade.

Brand-capital position

Brand equity 87 at group level masks significant variance: Ladbrokes carries strong heritage equity (NPS declining), Bwin has diluted equity from over-extension, PartyPoker has a loyal but contracting base. Portfolio brand management is the strategic priority.

What is being tracked
  • H1 2026 (13 Aug): group NGR up 5% at constant currency, online NGR up 7% for a ninth straight quarter of online growth, NGR about £2.5B; EBITDA from continuing operations £479M, down 2% reported as the UK remote gaming duty rose to 40%, partly recovered by mitigation. About 500 roles cut (~2% of staff) to offset roughly half the tax, and a CEE exit begun. BetMGM (the 50% JV) posted Q2 net revenue $711M (+3%) with iGaming about 70% of the mix while online sports stayed flat; FY26 online NGR guidance held at 5-7%.
  • BetMGM US JV contributes ~$2.2B annually (50% share)
  • Operating in 30+ regulated markets
  • Under new CEO Barry Gibson since 2024

▲ Reading Entain

Entain’s brand is worth more than its numbers currently show. That gap is pricing power nobody is charging for.

I grow your brand, your customers, and the money both return.

Your budget buys activity. I turn it into things that build over time: the price you can hold, the customers who stay, and what a buyer will pay for the business. Every move is specific, in order, and tied to a number.

Every quarter you wait, the gap compounds.

The driver scorecard
Revenue & growth 88

Digital 88
Brand equity in rust.

The 6 things the composite is built from, each scored 0 to 100 on the same basis as every other company on the board.

Why it matters

A single composite hides where the value actually sits. Two companies scoring 70 can be entirely different businesses, and the difference is what a buyer pays for.

Strongest on Revenue & growth, weakest on Product differentiation. Brand equity sits at 87, and that is the driver that keeps paying after a good quarter ends.

+1points ahead of the composite
Brand is carrying this score.

Both figures on one 0 to 100 axis. The banded distance between the two marks is the whole point of the chart.

Why it matters

Revenue can be bought with discounting; brand equity cannot. When brand sits below the composite the business is running on terms it has to keep re-earning, and that shows up in the multiple long before it shows up in the revenue line.

Brand equity leads the composite by 1. The name is worth more than the numbers currently show, which is a pricing opportunity.

The five companies scored closest to this one, ranked by composite.

Why it matters

Nobody is evaluated against the whole market. A buyer builds a shortlist of three to five comparable names, and these are the ones that would sit on it.

Within this set the spread is 19 points, so the composite alone will not separate them. Whatever decides the shortlist happens on the drivers underneath.

Momentum against the cohort
Entain +0.4
Cohort median flat
Centre line is no change.

This company's score change beside the median change across its side of the board. The centre line is no movement.

Why it matters

Direction beats level over a holding period. A company gaining on a flat field is compounding a position; one sliding while the field rises is losing ground twice.

Moving at +0.4 against a cohort median of flat. Gaining on the field.
