Sportradar Reports 19% Revenue Growth in the Second Quarter
Switzerland.- 4 August 2026 | www.zonadeazar.com Sportradar generated revenue of EUR 378 million during the second quarter of 2026, representing year-on-year growth of 19%.
The performance was driven by increased demand for content, data and technology solutions, the monetisation of the IMG ARENA rights portfolio and new agreements within the prediction markets sector.
News Details
Adjusted EBITDA also increased by 19% year-on-year to EUR 76 million, compared with EUR 64 million during the corresponding period of 2025.
Despite its operational growth, the company ended the quarter with a EUR 4 million loss, compared with a EUR 49 million profit one year earlier.
Sportradar attributed the result partly to EUR 9 million in unrealised foreign exchange losses, primarily connected with US dollar-denominated sports rights, and severance expenses associated with cost-efficiency initiatives.
Industry Context
The Betting Technology and Solutions division generated revenue of EUR 313.6 million, an increase of 21% from the previous year.
Within the division, Betting and Gaming Content revenue rose by 27%, supported by the integration and monetisation of the IMG ARENA rights portfolio. Managed Betting Services remained broadly unchanged at EUR 59.2 million.
The Sports Content, Technology and Services segment generated EUR 64.2 million, representing year-on-year growth of 9%. This was supported by a 16% increase in Marketing and Media Services, partially offset by a 13% decline in Sports Performance.
Revenue in the United States increased by 16% to EUR 101.8 million and accounted for 27% of total revenue. Revenue from the rest of the world rose by 20% to EUR 276 million.
