Analysis · PLTK · Technology
A strong second quarter saw Playtika deliver revenue of $731.1 million, beating consensus by $21 million, while Adjusted EBITDA jumped 23.4% year over year to $206.1 million. The standout performer was Disney Solitaire, which grew 289% year over year to $142.4 million and now rivals the flagship Bingo Blitz. Despite these results, management tempered the full-year outlook, guiding toward the lower end of its $2.75–$2.85 billion revenue range, citing cautious consumer spending and a planned pullback in marketing. The stock trades at $3.91, and the reaffirmed guidance—while still calling for growth—suggests the second half may not sustain Q2's momentum.
