Flutter capital markets event showcasing FanDuel

Number one US sports betting and iGaming business

 

Flutter, t he world's leading sports betting and iGaming business, is today hosting an event for investors and analysts at 25 Cipriani, Broadway, New York showcasing its US business, FanDuel. The event will also be streamed virtually.

FanDuel is the number one operator in the US today with a 42% share of the US online sports betting market and a 18% share of the US iGaming market. This leading position is underpinned by a range of sustainable competitive advantages, alongside access to unique benefits enabled by the Flutter Group. The FanDuel Advantages coupled with the Flutter Edge have produced a winning position of unparalleled scale which ensures that FanDuel:

 

1.  Acquires customers more efficiently

2.  Retains customers for longer; and

3.  Grows customer value more effectively

Excellent operational execution is driving significant momentum for our FanDuel flywheel, creating a virtuous circle where our scale advantage continues to compound and ensures we maintain our economic advantages and our clear number one position.

We are confident in a path to a 2030 total addressable market of more than $40bn in gross gaming revenue which represents growth of 4.5 times the size of the market today. By continuing to leverage the FanDuel Advantages and Flutter Edge, this would imply a significant runway of future revenue growth for FanDuel. With mature EBITDA margins expected to be equivalent to those in existing Flutter divisions of 25-30%, this growth potential would imply significant levels of long-term profitability, transforming the Flutter Group.

Peter Jackson, Chief Executive, commented:

"The US market represents the single biggest opportunity in our sector today and we are proud to own FanDuel, the premier asset within this market. The business has transformed the Flutter Group, performing better than we could have hoped and growing tenfold since PASPA was repealed in 2018.

FanDuel's success demonstrates the importance of global scale combined with local leadership and expertise. A clear strategy focused on the customer has delivered the number one position that FanDuel enjoys today and will continue to ensure FanDuel is the long-term market winner. Today we will demonstrate the superior business model underpinning FanDuel's success, which has ensured that our US division is on course to deliver profitability for the full year 2023. The superior economics that FanDuel enjoys as the market leader, represents an enormous value creation opportunity for the Group as our US business continues to grow.

Amy Howe and the leadership team have done a phenomenal job in executing on FanDuel's strategy to date and we remain excited about continuing FanDuel's success story."
