Gold prices briefly hit record high over $3,500/oz on fiscal, tariff concerns
Investing.com - BofA Securities raised its price target on Flutter Entertainment (NYSE:FLUT) to $330.00 from $295.00 on Friday, while maintaining a Buy rating on the stock. The company, currently trading at $289.58, has shown strong momentum with a 42% return over the past year according to InvestingPro data.
The price target increase reflects Flutter’s move to increase its ownership in FanDuel from 95% to 100%, which BofA described as occurring on "attractive terms."
BofA also cited better-than-expected second-quarter 2025 U.S. data as a factor supporting the higher valuation, noting that both developments strongly underpin Flutter’s fiscal year 2025 guidance and suggest potential upside risks.
The firm has increased its target valuation for FanDuel to $44 billion, up from a previous estimate of $37 billion, based on higher estimates and an increased target multiple driven by peer re-rating.
Flutter Entertainment is currently featured on BofA’s "25 for 2025" list and its Europe 1 list of top investment ideas.
