PENN Entertainment reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, delivering consolidated revenues of $1.86 billion, representing a 5.2% year-over-year increase compared to $1.77 billion in Q2 2025. Net income attributable to PENN reached $33.1 million ($0.24 diluted EPS), turning profitable compared to a net loss of $17.4 million in the prior-year period. Operating income expanded 69.9% to $131.7 million, while Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA rose 32.4% to $312.6 million, supported by disciplined promotional spending in the Interactive segment and contributions from recent development project openings. Performance across retail casino segments remained robust, benefiting from increased spend per visit and capital projects, including new hotel towers at M Resort and Hollywood Casino Columbus, alongside the land-based relocation of Hollywood Casino Joliet and the opening of the Aurora facility. The Interactive segment narrowed its Adjusted EBITDA loss substantially from $(62.0) million to $(9.5) million following the realignment away from ESPN BET media obligations towards its proprietary theScore Bet and Hollywood iCasino platforms.
The filing reflects a pivotal operational turnaround as PENN substantially trims digital gaming cash burn following the ESPN BET termination and captures incremental ROI from large-scale land-based casino developments funded in partnership with GLPI.
