Accel Entertainment reported Q2 2026 results on August 4, 2026. EPS was $0.15, 20.93% below the $0.19 estimate. Revenue of $368.1 million beat the $356.7 million consensus by 3.21%. Against Q2 2025, revenue rose 9.6% from $335.9 million, while EPS fell 42.3% from $0.26.

Revenue has grown steadily, from $969.9 million in 2022 to $1.33 billion in 2025, up 37.2%, and Q2 2026 set the table high. EPS has not kept pace: annual totals were $0.87 in 2022, $0.96 in 2023, $0.90 in 2024 and $0.91 in 2025. The first half of 2026 brought $0.32 per share, 34.7% less than the $0.49 a year earlier, even as half-year revenue rose 9.1%. Q2 2026 was the lowest EPS quarter in the table. Accel beat EPS estimates in 12 of the 20 quarters, but only once in the last four.

Third-quarter results came between October 30 and November 8 in each year shown, most recently on November 4, 2025. That points to late October or early November 2026 for Q3. The report will show whether revenue growth continues and how EPS compares with $0.16 in Q3 2025.
