Flutter estimates a revenue reduction of approximately<strong> $390m<\/strong> and an Adjusted EBITDA reduction of approximately <strong>$260m<\/strong> for the period from 12 November to 31 December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flutter has revised its 2024 US revenue estimate to approximately <strong>$5.78bn<\/strong>, down <strong>$370m<\/strong> from its previous midpoint guidance. Additionally, for 2024, US Adjusted EBITDA is now expected to be around<strong> $505m<\/strong>, a reduction of<strong> $205m<\/strong> from earlier estimates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q4 results will carry a \u2018revised expectation\u2019 for sportsbook net revenue margins of 6.6%. The reduction reflects unfavourable sports results that impacted Flutter\u2019s Q4 margin by 390 basis points (bps), compared to a negative Q4 2023 margin impact of 240bps from unfavourable results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Period trading saw FanDuel implement a 4% year-over-year reduction in promotional spend as a mitigation measure against adverse sports outcomes. This reduction more than offset the previously communicated increased investment in new player acquisition volumes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q3 results had seen Flutter warn of unfavourable NFL results impacting FanDuel, which had recorded a positive EBITDA swing of $58m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leadership faced questions about the generosity and exposure of its US parlays entering the busiest period of NFL wagering, with CEO <strong>Peter Jackson<\/strong> defending FanDuel\u2019s optimal pricing as a \u201cmaterial differential against competitors\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q4 US revenue is estimated at $1.59bn, with Adjusted EBITDA at $161m, reflecting adverse sports results impacts of $643m in GGR, $550m in revenue, and $360m in EBITDA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside of the US, Flutter noted continued strong performance, with the UK and Ireland benefiting from favourable Premier League results. This helped offset some of the challenges faced in the US. As a result, 2024 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for the Group Ex-US are expected to be 1% and 2% higher, respectively, than previous guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flutter will publish its full-year 2024 accounts on March 4.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/sbceurasia\">Telegram channel<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flutter Entertainment\u2019s end-of-year trading has been offset by a period of \u201cvery unfavourable US sports results\u201d, prompting management to revise its guidance for group and FanDuel segments.
