Brightstar Lottery PLC (NYSE:BRSL) Reports Mixed Q2 2025 Earnings with Revenue Miss and Narrow EPS Beat

BRIGHTSTAR LOTTERY PLC (NYSE:BRSL) reported its second-quarter 2025 earnings, revealing mixed results compared to analyst expectations. The company posted revenue of $631 million, slightly below the consensus estimate of $633.8 million, while earnings per share (EPS) came in at $0.12, narrowly beating the forecasted $0.1199. The modest EPS beat appears to have provided some support in pre-market trading, with shares up approximately 1.82%, though the stock has declined slightly over the past two weeks (-0.03%).

Key Financial Highlights

• Revenue Miss: Reported sales of $631 million fell short of the $633.8 million estimate, marking a slight underperformance.
• EPS Slight Beat: The $0.12 EPS figure edged past expectations by a marginal $0.0001 per share.
• Pre-Market Reaction: The stock saw a modest uptick in pre-market trading, suggesting cautious optimism despite the revenue shortfall.

Market Performance Context

While the immediate pre-market reaction was positive, the stock has struggled over the past two weeks, declining by 3.05%. The lack of a significant post-earnings surge indicates that investors may be weighing the revenue miss against the slight EPS beat. The absence of a full-year or Q3 outlook in the press release leaves analysts relying on existing estimates, which project full-year revenue at $2.59 billion and Q3 sales at approximately $644.7 million.

Press Release Summary

Brightstar highlighted a 2.6% global same-store sales growth in its instant ticket and draw games segment, alongside double-digit growth in product sales revenue. However, the company noted that year-over-year comparisons were impacted by unspecified factors, possibly explaining the revenue shortfall.
