Company Report

Penn Spending Aggressively Into Its ESPN Bet Launch but Competitive Advantage Still Elusive

Penn Entertainment holds a leading omnichannel presence, which includes 43 physical casino assets, a digital portfolio encompassing an upgraded sports betting partnership with ESPN launching Nov. 14, 2023, iGaming, media, and a loyalty membership base of 27 million. As a result, we estimate Penn holds around a low-double-digit revenue share of the $60 billion domestic commercial casino gaming market.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

We see Penn's domestic properties and partnership with ESPN as well positioned to benefit from the more than $40 billion U.S. sports betting and iGaming revenue opportunity by 2030.

Bears

Debt levels are elevated, which could inflate financing costs for future renovations and investment.

Company Profile

Penn Entertainment’s origins date back to its 1972 racetrack opening in Pennsylvania. Today, Penn operates 43 properties across 20 states and 12 brands (such as Hollywood Casino and Ameristar), with land-based casinos representing 90% of total sales in 2022 (10% was from the interactive segment, which includes sports, iGaming, and media revenue). The retail portfolio generates high-30% EBITDAR margins and helps position the company to obtain licenses for the digital wagering markets. Additionally, Penn’s media assets, theScore and ESPN (starting with its partnership launch Nov. 14, 2023), provide access to sports betting/iGaming technology and clientele, helping it form a leading digital position.
