According to InvestingPro data, the stock has delivered an impressive 60% return over the past year, with analysts maintaining a strong buy consensus. The company currently trades near its 52-week high of $313.69.

Flutter Entertainment reported Q2 2025 revenue of $4.187 billion, representing 16% year-over-year growth, and adjusted EBITDA of $919 million, up 25% from the previous year.

InvestingPro analysis shows the company maintains good financial health with a score of 2.83, operating with moderate debt levels and strong growth momentum.

The strong performance was driven by 17% revenue growth and 54% adjusted EBITDA growth in the U.S. market, alongside continued international momentum supported by the Snai and NSX acquisitions. The company saw particularly strong results in U.S. iGaming, which grew 42%, and Southeast Asia iGaming, which increased 70%.

Flutter’s improved sportsbook hold rate of 13.6% contributed to structural margin expansion during the quarter. The company also benefited from market access savings from its partnership with Boyd.

Management raised its full-year 2025 guidance, now projecting revenue of $17.26 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $3.295 billion, exceeding both prior guidance and consensus estimates. The revised outlook accounts for favorable U.S. sports results and adjusted expectations for state tax impacts and new state launch timings.
