Expectations

Wall Street Expectations

Overall, expectations for Flutter's upcoming earnings are mixed, with investors keen to see if the company can maintain its strong EPS performance amid competitive pressures.

Bull Case

If Flutter continues to exceed EPS expectations and shows strong revenue growth, it could signal robust demand for its gaming platforms, leading to positive stock movement.

Two Questions That Matter

How are customer acquisition costs trending?

Supporting Evidence

The options market is pricing in a significant move, suggesting that traders are anticipating volatility that could favor Flutter's performance.

Key Risk
