Inspired Entertainment stock (ISIN US45782N1081) was last at USD 3.46 on Nasdaq on October 2, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, down 5.59 percent from the prior close. The immediate pressure point is Brazil, where a new prohibition on regulated online betting and gaming could cut the company's fourth-quarter revenue by USD 3 million if it remains in force through the end of 2026, according to GlobeNewswire on September 29, 2026.

Brazil puts digital revenue under pressure

Inspired said substantially all of its existing Brazil revenue contribution would be affected while the prohibition remains in force. The provisional measure faces consideration by Brazil's Congress within 120 days, while the company said its present outlook excludes a reversal of the measure, according to GlobeNewswire.

The company plans to update its full-year 2026 outlook with third-quarter results. That makes the next report an important checkpoint for separating the Brazil hit from the broader digital growth strategy.

Second-quarter margin reaches 45 percent

Inspired reported USD 60.8 million of second-quarter 2026 revenue, down 24 percent year over year but up 6 percent sequentially. Net income reached USD 0.2 million, compared with a USD 7.8 million loss in the year-earlier quarter, while net operating income rose to USD 9.9 million, according to StockTitan in the August 5, 2026 filing summary.

Adjusted EBITDA was USD 27.1 million, down 5 percent year over year and up 14 percent sequentially. The resulting 45 percent adjusted EBITDA margin was a company record, showing the tension in the numbers: revenue contracted while the mix shifted toward higher-margin Interactive operations.

Consensus target stays far above price

MarketBeat reported on September 16, 2026, that one analyst rated Inspired Buy, one rated it Hold and one rated it Sell, producing a Hold consensus and a USD 20.00 average target. The consensus target lies 478.6 percent above the USD 3.46 price.

The market capitalization stood at USD 92.4 million on October 2, 2026, with 406,362 shares traded. The 52-week range was USD 3.20 to USD 9.95, placing the last price USD 0.26 above the yearly low and USD 6.49 below the high.

Inspired Entertainment stock stays near yearly low

Inspired Entertainment stock was last at USD 3.46 on Nasdaq on October 2, 2026. The price, the Brazil revenue risk and the 45 percent adjusted EBITDA margin leave the next quarterly update as the key numerical test for the company's digital transition.
