• Underlying Group EBITDA up 22.6% to $37.5 million
• Resilient performance in Australian business and strong growth in Managed Services
• Recent acquisitions of Dream Car Giveaways UK and Dream Giveaway USA contributing positively

Jumbo Interactive Ltd (ASX:JIN) has provided an update on its preliminary 1H26 results, ahead of the scheduled release of its audited results on 25 February 2026. The preliminary results remain subject to Board and external audit review. Jumbo expects to report strong double-digit growth across key Group metrics. Underlying Group EBITDA of $37.5 million (1H25: $30.6 million) is up 22.6% on the prior corresponding period, reflecting a resilient performance in the Australian business, strong growth in Managed Services, and the positive contribution from recent acquisitions, particularly Dream Car Giveaways UK which is performing ahead of expectations. The large jackpot environment in 1H26 was subdued, with 10 large Powerball and Oz Lotto jackpots (1H25: 13) and an aggregate Division 1 prize value of $410 million (1H25: $610 million). Despite the soft jackpot environment, Lottery Retailing delivered a resilient performance with TTV broadly flat on the prior corresponding period, supported by continued momentum in charity and proprietary products. The SaaS segment also performed well, with TTV up 9.9%. Managed Services delivered a strong performance with good momentum in Canada and disciplined execution in the UK. Jumbo also acquired Dream Car Giveaways (DCG UK) and Dream Giveaway (DG USA) in October 2025, and the performance of these businesses will be presented in a separate 'Dream Giveaways' segment in Jumbo's 1H26 disclosures.
