We have included in this Form 10-K the Group’s audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. The Group’s audited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). We end our fiscal year on December 31. The audited consolidated financial statements included herein, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, do not constitute statutory financial statements for the purposes of the Companies Act 2014 of Ireland (the “Irish Companies Act”). Our statutory financial statements for fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, upon which our independent auditors have expressed an unqualified opinion, have been previously delivered to the Registrar of Companies of Ireland (the “Registrar of Companies”) and, in the case of the 2025 financial statements, which are not yet published, are expected to be delivered to the Registrar of Companies within 56 days of our annual return date in fiscal 2026.
Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions. Totals may not add due to rounding.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements reflect our current expectations as to future events based on certain assumptions and include any statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to our expectations regarding the performance of our business, our financial results, our operations, our liquidity and capital resources, the conditions in our industry and our growth strategy (including our plans and expectations related to new product offerings). In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “outlook,” “believe(s),” “expect(s),” “potential,” “continue(s),” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “seek(s),” “predict(s),” “intend(s),” “trends,” “plan(s),” “estimate(s),” “anticipates,” “projection,” “goal,” “target,” “aspire,” “will likely result” and other words and terms of similar meaning or the negative versions of such words. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. These factors include but are not limited to those described in Part I, “Item 1A—Risk Factors”. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this report. Flutter undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.
RISK FACTOR SUMMARY
An investment in our ordinary shares involves risks. You should carefully consider the following information about these risks, together with the other information contained in this Annual Report, before investing in our ordinary shares. Some of the more significant challenges and risks relating to an investment in our Company are summarized below. The following is only a summary of the principal risks that may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The following should be read in conjunction with the more complete discussion of the risk factors we face, which are set forth in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Annual Report.
Economic downturns and market conditions beyond our control could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business is exposed to competitive pressures arising from competition in online betting and iGaming, as well as from prediction markets, illegal operators and new entrants into the markets in which we operate.
We may fail to retain existing customers or add new customers, or customers could decrease their level of engagement with our offerings in general.
Our growth prospects may suffer if we are unable to develop successful product offerings or if we fail to pursue additional product offerings or make the right investment decisions in our product offerings and technology.
ii
We may experience lower-than-expected profitability or suffer significant losses from a failure to determine accurately the odds in relation to any particular event, including as a result of errors in our odds-setting or bet acceptances processes and/or any failure of our sports risk management processes.
Uncertainty as to the legality of online betting and/or iGaming or adverse public sentiment towards online betting and/or iGaming may deter third party suppliers from dealing with us.
Our business depends on our ability to attract, retain, motivate and develop key personnel, and our failure to do so or to maintain adequate succession planning for key positions could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are highly dependent on the development and operation of our sophisticated and proprietary technology and advanced information systems, and any disruptions to such systems or failure to effectively adopt and implement new technologies and systems could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We use artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning and similar technologies in our business, which may present business, compliance, and reputational risks.
Security breaches, unauthorized access to or disclosure of our data or customer data, cyber-attacks on our systems or other cyber incidents could compromise sensitive information related to our business (including personal data processed by us or on our behalf) and expose us to liability, which could harm our reputation and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to a number of risks related to credit card payments, including data security breaches, fraud and chargebacks, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The increasing application of, and any significant failure to comply with, applicable data protection, privacy and digital services laws may have a material adverse effect on us.
An interruption, failure, cessation or material change of the terms for the provision of third party data and content services could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Adverse changes to the regulation of online betting, iGaming and adjacent industries, or their interpretation by regulators, could have a material adverse effect on our growth prospects, as well as our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Legal uncertainty and inconsistent enforcement of online betting and iGaming laws could require us to restrict or cease operations in certain jurisdictions, or expose us to regulatory or legal action.
The successful execution of our growth strategy, particularly with respect to our U.S. business, depends on our ability to expand our provision of online betting and iGaming services into new and existing jurisdictions and markets where the regulatory status of the provision of such services has been clarified or liberalized.
Changes in taxation laws, regulations and interpretations could materially increase our tax liabilities, reduce customer demand for our products, and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Uncertain and evolving interpretations of tax laws for online betting, iGaming and adjacent products may expose us to disproportionate liability.
Social responsibility concerns and public opinion regarding responsible gambling and related matters could significantly influence the regulation of online betting and iGaming and impose new responsible gaming requirements, could result in investigations and litigation, and may adversely impact our reputation.
We are exposed to foreign exchange rate risk with respect to the translation of foreign currency denominated balance sheet amounts and to the risk of interest rate fluctuations.
We depend on the ongoing support of payment processors and international multi-currency transfer systems.
We previously identified deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that constitute “material weaknesses” as defined in Regulation S-X. Although these material weaknesses have been remediated, if we identify material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting to the standards required by U.S. securities laws, we may not be able to accurately report our financial condition or results of operations or prevent fraud.
iii
The amount and frequency of our share repurchases may fluctuate, and we cannot guarantee that we will purchase all of the shares under our share repurchase authorization, or that it will enhance long-term shareholder value.
U.S. investors may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us, our directors and officers.
