On October 16, 2025, BetMGM announced that it will distribute $200 million in cash to its owners, MGM Resorts International and Entain. This payment marks a reversal from the joint venture’s previous status as a cash drain, reflecting its transition to a profitable operation. The distribution is expected to be paid out to shareholders in the coming quarter.
The $200 million payout follows BetMGM’s Q3 2025 results, which showed a significant increase in net revenue and a shift to positive EBITDA. The distribution underscores the joint venture’s improved cash flow generation and its ability to return value to owners. It also signals confidence in the long‑term profitability of BetMGM’s online gaming and sports betting businesses.
For MGM Resorts, the cash inflow represents a substantial boost to its liquidity and a tangible return on its 50% stake in BetMGM. The payment also reduces the joint venture’s net debt and enhances the company’s balance sheet strength. Investors view the distribution as a positive development that may support future share repurchase or dividend initiatives.
