Key highlights:

- Flutter sees revenue hit a four-year high of £4.8bn ($6.12bn)

- Its adjusted EBITDA hits £823m

- However, net debt increases dramatically to £4.63bn

- Flutter’s market capitalisation stands at £25bn

Flutter’s significant increase in revenue, up to £4.8bn in H1 2023 from £3.4bn in H1 2022, was commented on by Flutter’s Chief Executive Peter Jackson: “The first half of 2023 marks a pivotal moment for the group, with our US business now at a profitability inflection point, helping transform the earnings profile of the group and significantly enhance our financial flexibility.”

Breaking down this revenue figure, Flutter’s sports revenue rose 41% to £3bn – a division comprised of Flutter’s multiple sports betting brands, such as FanDuel and Sky Bet (among others).

Additionally, its Q2 figures show that its US sports betting division has a market share of 47%; FanDuel's share of the sports betting market was quoted as 51% in Q2 2022. With new markets opening up in that time (such as Massachusetts), could this be cause for concern and suggest DraftKings and co. are catching up?

Meanwhile, back to revenue, Flutter’s gaming revenue also saw a similar percentage rise year-on-year at 43% – totalling £1.81bn.

Looking at Flutter’s H1 gross profit, which totalled £2.8bn – an annual increase of 38% on H1 2022’s £2.04bn – it has steadily increased during the past four H1 reports, with H1 2020’s gross profit sitting at £1.03bn and H1 2021 posting £1.94bn.
