A $1.2bn problem: Can Dan Taylor turn Flutter around after Q3 losses | Ep. 896

Flutter has reported Q3 standalone losses of $1.2bn in the first set of results under new Chief Executive Officer Dan Taylor, while leadership maintains that the NYSE-listed group holds unmatched scale in its global business structure.

Yet EBITDA and profitability continue to be affected by the fallout from Brazil’s betting ban, a squeeze on UK margins and compounding US costs as FanDuel works to reset its competitive edge against new threats.

In today’s iGaming Daily, host Fernando Noodt is joined by Ted Menmuir, SBC Editor-at-Large and Ted Orme-Claye, SBC News Editor, to break down the results and what they mean for Taylor.

The team looks at what the $1.2bn figure accounts for, the positives Flutter is pitching to the market, the pressure on UK and Ireland margins and whether the group can recover under its current structure.
