Evoke Post Q3 Revenue Decline of 7%

William Hill and 888 owner Evoke has reported a 7% year-on-year fall in third-quarter revenue, citing the closure of approximately 270 betting shops and customer-friendly sporting results, and has urged the UK government not to impose further gambling tax increases in the forthcoming Budget. Revenue Under Pressure from Closures and Sporting Results In its trading update for the three months ended 30 September 2026, the group reported revenue of £406m. The decline was driven primarily by the loss of retail earnings following the closure of around 270 William Hill shops, alongside a less favourable sporting calendar than the prior year.
