Bally’s Reports 21.7% Revenue Growth in Preliminary Q3 2026 Results

Bally’s Corporation has released preliminary, unaudited financial results for the third quarter of 2026, reporting consolidated revenue of $807.6 million, an increase of 21.7% year-over-year. The company disclosed the figures in an 8-K filing on November 9, ahead of its formal quarterly reporting, with growth led primarily by the Bally’s Intralot B2C segment and North America Interactive.

The Casinos & Resorts segment generated revenue of $408.6 million, up 3.2% year-over-year, reflecting steady performance across the company’s 19-property land-based portfolio. Bally’s Intralot B2C contributed $257.5 million in revenue, continuing the strong trajectory established since the integration of the lottery and gaming technology business.

North America Interactive also delivered notable growth, with revenue rising by more than 25% compared to the prior-year quarter. The digital segment has shown consistent momentum throughout 2026, having posted 16.9% growth in the second quarter.

Continued Momentum from the Intralot Integration

The third-quarter results extend a pattern of substantial top-line expansion since Bally’s completed its combination with Intralot. Consolidated revenue grew 28.3% in the first quarter of 2026 and 20% in the second quarter, with the Intralot B2C business posting growth of more than 20% in each period.

The integration has not been without financial pressures, however. Prior quarterly reports indicated that higher finance expenses and transaction costs have weighed on the company’s bottom line, and Bally’s Intralot reported a net loss of €12.7 million for the first half of 2026, driven largely by financing costs. Analysts and industry observers continue to monitor whether revenue growth can translate into sustained profitability as the combined group matures.

Chicago Project Oversight

Attention within the industry has also focused on the company’s land-based development pipeline. In the second quarter of 2026, Bally’s reported stronger revenue even as construction work on its permanent Chicago casino facility was paused, prompting questions from local officials about the project’s financial planning and timeline. The permanent facility, which had been targeted for a June 2026 opening with an estimated annual run rate of $250 million, remains a key strategic asset for the company in the third-largest US city.
