Inspired Entertainment Delivers Strong Q2 Performance

Inspired Entertainment enjoyed a 7% year-on-year revenue increase in Q2 2025, reaching $80.3 million. This growth owed to strong results in the Interactive segment and improvements in overall profitability. The company highlighted increased engagement in key markets and strategic operational gains across its business segments.

Their Adjusted EBITDA reached $28.4 million, up 15% from the same period last year. 

Inspired’s leadership emphasised its focus on sustainable growth and long-term value creation. The brand completed a comprehensive debt refinancing during the quarter. It issued £270 million in senior secured notes and secured a £17.8 million revolving credit facility. The £288 million total refinancing provides financial flexibility to fund growth initiatives across multiple markets.

Interactive and Gaming Drive Growth

The Interactive segment stood out as the best performer in Q2. Segment revenue jumped 45% annually, driven by strong traction in North America and the UK. Adjusted EBITDA for the segment rose 49%, while margins increased by 67%. The Gaming segment also posted strong results, with Adjusted EBITDA increasing 35% compared to Q2 2024. This was supported by the Inspired’s Vantage rollouts with William Hill and new terminals in Greece.

Inspired also secured a new partnership with Jenningsbet. The five-year agreement will see the company supply around 570 Vantage terminals across 144 UK betting shops. Deployment will begin in the fourth quarter of 2025, reinforcing Inspired’s leadership in the UK retail gaming market.

Mixed Results in Virtual Sports

Virtual Sports saw revenue fall 21% yearly to $9.2 million. While this segment faced challenges, it recorded sequential growth over the previous quarter. Inspired remains optimistic about its Virtual Sports pipeline and has taken steps to expand the offerings.

In Brazil, the company launched localised content with major operators, including the debut of V-Play Football Brazil. In the UK, Inspired expanded its relationship with William Hill, enhancing Virtual Sports content across 1,300 betting shops. These efforts aim to boost player engagement and modernise the in-shop experience.

Leisure and Strategic Outlook

Inspired’s Leisure segment performed to expectations. The year-to-date revenue rose 5%, while Adjusted EBITDA climbed 19% compared to 2024. This segment benefited from a shift in UK public holidays.

The company plans to keep investing in its digital pipeline, market expansion, and hardware upgrades. With a diversified portfolio and strong operational base, they are set for the second half of the year. Inspired enters the next quarter with renewed momentum following a solid Q2 and new deals.
