Shares of Brightstar Lottery PLC (BRSL) surged 5.01% in Tuesday's trading session following the company's impressive third-quarter earnings report that significantly exceeded analyst expectations.
The lottery operator reported quarterly adjusted earnings of $0.60 per share, nearly triple the mean expectation of $0.23 per share from four analysts. This result also marked a substantial improvement from the $0.04 per share reported in the same quarter last year. Revenue for the quarter rose 7.2% year-over-year to $629 million, slightly below the analyst consensus of $634.38 million.
Brightstar Lottery's strong performance was further underscored by its full-year 2025 revenue guidance of $2.5 billion, which came in close to the FactSet estimate of $2.52 billion. The company's ability to nearly meet revenue projections while dramatically surpassing earnings expectations suggests improved operational efficiency and profit margins. This positive outlook, combined with the exceptional quarterly results, fueled investor enthusiasm and drove the stock's significant intraday gain.
