You should read the following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Flutter Entertainment plc and its consolidated subsidiaries in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties about our business and operations. Our actual results and the timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those we describe under Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026 (the “2025 Annual Report”).
Our Business
Flutter is the world’s leading online sports betting and iGaming operator based on revenue. Our ambition is to change our industry for the better and deliver long-term growth while also achieving a positive, sustainable future for all our stakeholders. We are well-placed to do so through the global competitive advantages of the Flutter Edge, which provides our brands with access to group-wide benefits to stay ahead of the competition, while maintaining a clear vision for sustainability through our Positive Impact Plan.
Our Products and Geographies
Our principal products include sportsbook, iGaming and other products, such as exchange betting, pari-mutuel wagering, daily fantasy sports (“DFS”) and prediction markets product offerings in the U.S. In each market that we operate in, we typically offer sports betting, iGaming, or both, depending on the regulatory conditions of that market.
We operate a divisional management and operating structure across our geographic markets. Our segments have an empowered management team responsible for maintaining the momentum and growth in their respective geographic markets.
The Company reports its consolidated financial statements based on two reportable segments:
•U.S.; and
•International.
Non-GAAP Measures
We report our financial results in this Quarterly Report in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”); however, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful information to supplement our financial operating performance in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, both on a Group-wide basis, provide visibility to the performance of our business by excluding the impact of certain income or gains and expenses or losses. Additionally, we believe these metrics are widely used by investors, securities analysts, ratings agencies and others in our industry in evaluating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not liquidity measures and should not be considered as discretionary cash available to us to reinvest in the growth of our business, or to distribute to shareholders, or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.
Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies, have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation. Additionally, we do not consider our non-GAAP financial measures as superior to, or a substitute for, the equivalent measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
To evaluate our business properly and prudently, we encourage you to review the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, and not rely on a single financial measure to evaluate our business. We also strongly urge you to review the reconciliations between our most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP measures and our non-GAAP measures set forth in “—Supplemental Disclosure of Non-GAAP Measures.”

Key Operational Metrics
Average Monthly Players (“AMPs”) is defined as the average over the applicable reporting period of the total number of players who have had a bet settled and/or contributed to the rake or tournament fees during the month. This measure does not include individuals who have only used new player or player retention incentives, and this measure is for online players only and excludes retail player activity. We present AMPs for each of our product categories, for our segments and for the consolidated Group as a whole as we believe this provides useful information for assessing underlying trends. At the product category level, a player is generally counted as one AMP for each product category they use. In circumstances where a player uses multiple product categories within one brand, we are generally able to identify that it is the same player who is using multiple product categories and therefore count this player as only one AMP at each of the segment and Group levels while also counting this player as one AMP for each separate product category that the player is using.
Notwithstanding the methodology described in the immediately preceding paragraph, our AMPs information is based on player data collected by each of our brands, which generally each employ their own unique data platform, and reflects a level of duplication that arises from individuals who use multiple brands. More specifically, we are generally unable to identify when the same individual player is using multiple brands and therefore count this player multiple times. In addition to the duplication that arises when the same individual player is using multiple brands, we do not eliminate from the AMPs information presented for the Group as a whole duplication of individual players who use our product offerings within our segments during the reported period. For example, a player who uses Betfair Casino in the iGaming product category within the U.K. and Sisal sports in the sportsbook product category in Italy would appropriately count as one AMP for each of the iGaming product category and the sportsbook product category. However, this player would count as two AMPs (rather than one AMP) for the International segment and the Group as a whole.
We are unable to quantify the level of duplication that arises as a result of these circumstances, but do not believe it to be material and note that players must demonstrate residency within the geography covered by a segment to sign up for an account, and accordingly such duplication could only arise in the circumstance of an individual player having one or more residences in each of our segments. For a further description of the duplication that can arise in the way we count AMPs, see Part II, “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the 2025 Annual Report. We do not believe that the existence of player duplication undercuts the meaningfulness of the AMPs data that we present for assessing underlying trends in our business, and our management uses this AMPs data for this purpose.
Stakes represent the total amount our players wagered in sportsbook and is a key volume indicator for our sportsbook products. The variability of sporting outcomes can result in an impact to sportsbook revenue that may obscure underlying trends in the sportsbook business relating to growth in amounts wagered and, accordingly, staking data can provide additional useful information. We do not utilize staking information to track performance of our iGaming products. Because our iGaming business is not subject to the same variability in outcomes, management is able to assess trends in our iGaming business by analyzing AMPs and revenue changes, without the need to collect or analyze stakes and believes that collecting and analyzing stakes data in our iGaming business would not provide meaningful incremental information regarding trends in such business that is not already provided by collecting and analyzing our iGaming AMPs and revenue data.
Sportsbook net revenue margin is defined as sportsbook revenue as a percentage of the amount staked. This is a key indicator for measuring the combined impact of our overall margin on sportsbook products and levels of bonusing.
Acquisitions and Investments
The acquisitions that we have completed since the beginning of fiscal 2025 are noted below:
•a 5% redeemable non-controlling interest in FanDuel Group Parent LLC (“FanDuel”) held by Boyd Interactive Gaming Holdings L.L.C. (“Boyd”) for a consideration of $1,553 million. The acquisition brings the Group’s holding in FanDuel to 100% (subject to the Fox Option).
•a 56% interest in NSX Group (“NSX”), a leading Brazilian operator of the Betnacional brand for a total consideration of BRL 3,799 million ($674 million), with a redemption mechanism in the form of call and put options which allows us to acquire the remaining interest in NSX in year five and year ten following the acquisition date.
•100% of the outstanding shares of Pluto (Italia) S.p.A, the holding company that owns Snaitech S.p.A (“Snai”), one of Italy’s leading omni-channel operators in the sports betting and iGaming market, for consideration of approximately $2.6 billion (€2.3 billion).

Table of Contents
In December 2025, we launched FanDuel Predicts in partnership with CME Group (“CME”) in five states. FanDuel Predicts was expanded nationwide during the first quarter of 2026 across financial, economic and commodities contracts, with sports available for trading in 18 non-sportsbook states including California, Texas and Florida. FanDuel Predicts non-sports contract were made available in all 50 states. We provide eligible customers with a mobile platform to trade prediction markets contracts.
We intend to make similar investments in the future in attractive, fast-growing markets where growing our business organically is typically slower or more difficult to achieve. Acquisitions can involve significant investments to integrate the business of the acquired company with our business, and such costs may vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, the impact of significant acquisitions may result in our financial information for such periods being less comparable to prior financial periods, or not being comparable at all, to prior financial periods.
Business Environment
The performance of our reportable segments can be materially affected by the following industry trends and regulatory changes in the global online sports betting and iGaming market.
US
We believe that our US segment is the largest growth opportunity for the Group. Since 2018 when the key sports betting legislation was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court, a number of states have moved to legalize and regulate online sports betting and online casino gambling at the state level. As of June 30, 2026, FanDuel online sportsbook was available in 26 states or territories, our FanDuel online casino was available in five states, our FanDuel paid DFS offering was available in 43 states, our FanDuel or TVG online horse racing wagering product was available in 32 states, our FanDuel Predicts product for financial, economic and commodities contracts and our FanDuel free-to-play products were available in all 50 states.
We continue to see a limited cannibalization impact from prediction markets on our existing customer database in regulated sportsbook states based on a comprehensive tracking of deposit data, download data, active tracking and monitoring of the trends we are observing within the FanDuel customer data base. We believe this is attributable to the fundamental differences in product propositions, customer age profiles and concentration of prediction market activity among entertainment-first users. Meanwhile, we continue to view prediction markets as a very attractive, incremental opportunity to acquire customers ahead of sports betting regulation in new states. FanDuel Predicts was expanded nationwide during the first quarter across financial, economic and commodities contracts, with sports available for trading in 18 non-sportsbook states including California, Texas and Florida. We are closely monitoring the implications of the rapid growth in prediction markets on the broader online sports-betting markets.
International
Our International segment operates in approximately 100 different countries in both locally regulated and unregulated markets. Significant regulatory developments during the quarter are discussed below.
UK and Ireland
While more mature than many other European markets, the United Kingdom and Ireland online gaming and betting markets have continued to exhibit growth despite significant regulatory changes, including taxation, in recent years.
In October 2024, the Irish government enacted the Gambling Act 2024, which introduced major reform of gambling laws in Ireland, including the creation of the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland (“GRAI”) with the power to issue licenses and enforce regulation. Betting licenses commenced on July 1, 2026 and, applications for gaming licenses are due to be opened by the GRAI during the first quarter of 2027.
In November 2025, the UK government announced significant increases to remote gambling duties: an increase in remote gaming duty from 21% to 40% effective April 2026; and, an increase in betting duty (excluding horseracing and land-based) from 15% to 25% effective April 2027. In July 2026, the United Kingdom Gambling Commission (“UKGC”) further announced the requirement for financial risk assessments using a staged approach, with timing to be confirmed. The impact of these assessments on our business is not yet clear and will depend on how they are implemented.

Italy
Italy is the largest regulated gambling market in the European Union. In recent years, the regulatory framework in Italy has tightened with a ban on online advertising issued in 2019. In August 2023, the Italian government approved the terms of a new legislative decree to reorganize the entire gambling sector with the primary objective of improving player protection, combating illegal gambling and increasing tax revenues through a new licensing framework. In September 2025, Flutter obtained five licenses for all the brands we operate in Italy, with new concessions became effective on November 13, 2025 and will remain valid for nine years.
Australia
The Australian betting and gaming market is a highly regulated market including for online betting. The market continues to experience a softer racing market, which is expected to continue in the near term, while the sports segment of the market has shown continued growth.
The regulatory environment in Australia has also evolved significantly in recent years, especially after the introduction of point of consumption tax in 2019. Queensland, New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory and Victoria have since increased point of consumption tax rates. We believe that the higher tax environment underlines the importance of scale in the Australian market and favors large operators.
In April 2026, the Australian government announced reforms to gambling advertising which are expected to enter into force in early 2027. Under the reforms, digital advertising will continue to be permitted, subject to age verification, login and opt-out requirements, while jersey and in-stadia advertising are expected to be banned. The reforms also include a commitment to combat illegal offshore operators, a measure consistent with concerns raised by Sportsbet regarding the risk of consumers migrating to unregulated operators.
Brazil
On January 1, 2025, Brazil launched its regulated market for online sports betting and casino. Our Betfair and Betnacional brands are licensed by the Ministry of Finance Secretariat of Betting and Prizes (Secretaria de Prêmios e Apostas, “SPA”), each with an individual 5-year renewable license valid until December 31, 2029, enabling us to offer approved online sports betting and casino products in the entire Brazilian national territory. On May 29, 2025, Brazil’s Senate approved a bill implementing new rules to ban betting advertising during live sports broadcasts and prohibit the use of celebrities, influencers, and active athletes in gambling promotions. The bill will now be deliberated in the Chamber of Deputies. In January 2026, Brazil’s president approved the gradual tax increase on gaming operators from 12% on gross gaming revenue to 13% in 2026 followed by further increases to 14% in 2027 and 15% from 2028 onwards. An exclusion register was also introduced as a requirement for licensed operators. This register excludes not only Brazilian customers seeking to self-exclude from licensed gambling operators but also requires that recipients of certain welfare benefits are excluded from gambling with licensed operators.

Revenue increased by 3%, to $4,326 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $4,187 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. AMPs decreased 11% period over period to 14 million primarily driven by the cessation of operations in India during 2025. Revenue in our US segment decreased by 6% period over period, driven by a 15% decrease in sportsbook revenue which was partially offset by a 14% increase in iGaming revenue. Revenue in our International segment increased by 10% period over period, primarily driven by the acquisitions of Snai and NSX, which were consolidated from April 30, 2025 and May 14, 2025, respectively, and contributed a 6% increase in revenue.
Cost of sales increased by 17% to $2,613 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $2,228 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased period over period to 60% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from 53% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. In our U.S. segment, cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased period over period by 510 basis points, from 54.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 to 59.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 primarily driven by (i) increased state tax of 200 basis points, (ii) a year-over-year 150 basis points increase due to adverse impact from sports results, (iii) increased generosity, and (iv) higher proportion of iGaming revenue which attract costs of sales at a higher rate, which were partially offset by market access savings and renegotiated commercial agreements. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased in our International segment by 580 basis points, primarily driven by an increase in remote gaming tax in UKI and the acquisition of Snai which has a higher cost of sales as a percentage of revenue. Additionally, there was (i) a $21 million increase in depreciation and amortization, primarily driven by (a) the acquisitions of Snai and NSX and (b) a change in estimate of asset useful lives, and (ii) a $62 million increase in legal loss contingencies due to a provision recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2026 in connection with the Indian GST matter.
Technology, research and development expenses increased by 17%, to $300 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $256 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily driven by (i) a $23 million increase in our US segment primarily due to an increase in server costs, cloud service costs and investment in FanDuel Predicts, and (ii) a $21 million increase in our International segment primarily driven by (a) a $9 million increase due to the acquisitions of Snai and NSX, (b) cost inflation and (c) server migration costs.
Sales and marketing expenses increased by 28%, to $1,012 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $789 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. In our US segment, sales and marketing expenses increased by 61% or 880 basis points as a percentage of revenue, primarily driven by increased spend during the FIFA World Cup and investment in FanDuel Predicts. In our International segment, sales and marketing expenses increased by 18.6% or 120 basis points as a percentage of revenue, primarily due to (i) increased investment during the FIFA World Cup and (ii) investment in Brazil. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was also driven by an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $16 million, primarily due to the full period amortization of acquired intangible assets from the Snai and NSX acquisitions and change in estimated useful lives in our SkyBet and PokerStars brands.
General and administrative expenses increased by 4%, to $545 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $525 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by a $33 million increase in legal loss contingencies due to an accrual recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2026 for historical US sales and use taxes.
Operating (loss) profit decreased by $533 million, to a $144 million operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from a $389 million operating profit for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as a result of the factors above.
Other income (expense), net increased by $81 million, to a $7 million income for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from a $74 million expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by (i) a movement in the fair value change on the Fox Option liability of $121 million to a gain of $40 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from a loss of $81 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and (ii) a loss on settlement of debt of $14 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 driven by the settlement of our bridge credit agreement which financed the acquisition of Snai. These were partially offset by a decrease in foreign exchange gain (loss) of $53 million to a loss of $28 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to a gain of $25 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Interest expense, net increased by $52 million, to $162 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $110 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to (a) a $47 million increase in interest expense resulting from the June 2025 issuance and subsequent third-quarter 2025 issuance of the Senior Secured Notes due 2031 and the USD First Lien Term Loan B due 2032, and (b) an $8 million reduction in interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents balances driven by lower interest rates.

Income tax benefit (expense) increased by $171 million, to $3 million of income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $168 million of income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in income tax benefit was primarily attributable to the variability in pre-tax book income and loss and the jurisdictional mix of profits in which the Group has a taxable presence. It also reflected (i) $28 million of income tax expense related to the reorganization of the Betfair Brazil business in the fiscal year 2025, and (ii) a share-based compensation tax shortfall of $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to an excess tax benefit of $7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Net (loss) income decreased by $333 million, to a $296 million net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $37 million of net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and net income margin decreased to 6.8% net loss margin from 0.9% net income margin for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as a result of the factors above.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $411 million, to $508 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $919 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by 1,020 basis points from 21.9% to 11.7% reflecting the revenue performance and expenses trends outlined above.

Sportsbook revenue decreased by 15%, where a decrease in net revenue margin was partially offset by a 2% period over period increase in stakes to $11,958 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026.
Sportsbook net revenue margin decreased by 170 basis points period over period to 8.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 10.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. This reflected (i) the negative impact from sports results of 70 basis points period over period (three months ended June 30, 2026: 10 basis points favorable, three months ended June 30, 2025: 80 basis points favorable) and (ii) an increase in promotional spend period over period of 140 basis points, primarily due to investment in new state launches and the FIFA World Cup. There was an increase in structural revenue margin of 40 basis points to 14.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, primarily driven by soccer performance and high penetration of same game parlay during the FIFA World Cup.
iGaming revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by 14% driven by an increase in AMPs of 14% period over period to 1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Other revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by 3% period over period. The increase was primarily driven by market making revenues which more than offset a decline in DFS revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA for our U.S. segment was $119 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a $281 million decrease compared to $400 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 7.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from 22.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin was driven by (i) an 880 basis points increase in sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue reflecting additional expenditure during the FIFA World Cup and investment in FanDuel Predicts, (ii) an increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue of 510 basis points from 54.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 to 59.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, primarily driven by (a) increased state tax of 200 basis points, (b) a year-over-year 150 basis points increase due to adverse impact from sports results, (c) increased generosity, and (d) higher proportion of iGaming revenue which attract costs of sales at a higher rate, which were partially offset by market access savings and renegotiated commercial agreements, and (iii) a 170 basis points increase in technology, research and development expenses as a percentage of revenue primarily due to an increase in server costs, cloud service costs and investment in FanDuel Predicts.

Total revenue for our International segment increased by 10%, to $2,643 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $2,396 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, with the acquisitions of Snai and NSX contributing an increase in revenue of 6%. Favorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates contributed to an increase in revenue of 3%. AMPs decreased by 16% period over period driven by the cessation of operations in India during August 2025.
Sportsbook revenue increased by 14%, to $1,190 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $1,041 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, with the acquisitions of Snai and NSX contributing an increase in revenue of 6%. Sportsbook stakes grew 13% period over period, with Snai and NSX contributing 6% of the period over period growth. Favorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates contributed to sportsbook revenue growth of 5% period over period.
Sportsbook net revenue margin increased by 10 basis points to 13.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Structural revenue margin decreased by 20 basis points driven by (i) the impact of faster growth in regions with currently lower structural revenue margins, including CEE and Brazil and (ii) adverse sports and bet mix in APAC. There was a 10 basis points favorable impact from sports results period over period (three months ended June 30, 2026: 40 basis points favorable, three months ended June 30, 2025: 30 basis points favorable). A 20 basis points reduction in promotional spend to 3.4% of stakes had a positive impact on net revenue margin primarily driven by efficiency improvements in APAC and CEE, partially offset by increased investment in UKI and Brazil for the FIFA World Cup.
iGaming revenue increased by 7%, to $1,358 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $1,268 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, with the acquisitions of Snai and NSX contributing revenue growth of 6%. Additionally, revenue growth was driven by performance in Sisal, UKI and CEE, which more than offset the impact of the cessation of operations in India during August 2025.

Table of Contents
Other revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by 9% period over period primarily due to Betfair exchange revenue growth driven by IPL and Women’s T20 World Cup.
On a regional basis:
UKI revenue grew by 4% period over period. UKI sportsbook revenue decreased by 2% primarily due to a 1% decline in stakes as customers were adapting to the new SkyBet interface post-migration, partially mitigated by the FIFA World Cup. UKI iGaming revenue grew 7% period over period driven by an increase in AMPs of 22% and sequential improvement on Sky Gaming.
SEA revenue grew 36% period over period. The acquisition of Snai contributed revenue growth of 17%, and the transfer of PokerStars' Southern European customers to SEA from Other regions in the first quarter of 2026 contributed revenue growth of 6%. Sportsbook revenue for the region grew 41% period over period due to (i) the acquisition of Snai, which contributed an increase in revenue of 25%, and (ii) growth in Sisal due to increased handle, primarily driven by product improvements and the FIFA World Cup. Favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates contributed sportsbook revenue growth of 3%. iGaming revenue grew 34% period over period benefiting from (i) the acquisition of Snai, which contributed an increase in revenue of 13%, (ii) growth in Sisal Italy, (iii) expanded product offerings in Türkiye, and (iv) the transfer of PokerStars' Southern European customers to SEA from Other regions which contributed 8% growth. A favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates contributed to an iGaming revenue increase of 2%.
APAC revenue decreased 1% period over period. Sportsbook revenue in Australia was 11% higher, primarily driven by an increase in amounts staked of 12%, due to a favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates of 11%, which more than offset a decline in greyhound racing. iGaming revenue declined in India by 100% period over period which reflects the prohibition of real-money gaming and subsequent cessation of our Indian operations in August 2025. A favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates contributed revenue growth of 9%.
CEE revenue grew 23% period over period primarily driven by (i) iGaming growth of 16% period over period driven by product improvements and increased market share in Serbia, Georgia and Armenia, (ii) an increase in sportsbook handle of 21% period over period and (iii) a 310 basis points improvement in sportsbook net revenue margin due to a higher mix of multi-leg bets and more efficient deployment of generosity.
Brazil revenue grew 64% period over period, with NSX contributing 57% of revenue growth. A favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates contributed revenue growth of 11%.
Other regions revenue decreased by 38% period over period, primarily driven by (i) a 25% decrease due to the transfer of PokerStars' Southern European customers to the SEA region and PokerStars’ North America customers to the US segment and (ii) continued decline in activity on the PokerStars global platform.
Adjusted EBITDA for International was $476 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a 19% decrease from $591 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by 670 basis points to 18.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2026. The acquisitions of Snai and NSX contributed to the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA by $14 million and the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin by 100 basis points.
The overall decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin was primarily driven by (i) an increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue of 580 basis points from 46.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, to 51.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, due to (a) an increase in remote gaming duty in the UKI and (b) higher cost of sales in the acquired Snai business, and (ii) an increase of sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue of 120 basis points from 15.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 to 16.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 primarily due to increased investment during the FIFA World Cup and investment in Brazil.

Revenue increased by 10%, to $8,630 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $7,852 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. AMPs decreased 7% period over period to 14.3 million primarily driven by the cessation of operations in India during 2025. Revenue in our US segment was flat period over period with iGaming growth of 17% period over period being offset by a decrease in sportsbook of 7% period over period. Revenue in our International segment increased by 18% period over period, primarily driven by the acquisitions of Snai and NSX, which were consolidated from April 30, 2025 and May 14, 2025, respectively, and contributed a 12% increase in revenue.
Cost of sales increased by 21% to $5,080 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $4,184 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased period over period to 59% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 53% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. In our U.S. segment, cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased period over period by 340 basis points, from 55.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to 59.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, primarily driven by tax rate increases of 210 basis points and the relatively higher proportion of revenue generated in iGaming, which attracts cost of sales at a higher rate. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue increased in our International segment by 530 basis points primarily driven by an increase in remote gaming tax in UKI and the acquisition of Snai which has higher cost of sales as a percentage of revenue. Additionally, there was (i) an $80 million increase in depreciation and amortization, primarily driven by (a) the acquisitions of Snai and NSX and (b) a change in estimate of asset useful lives, and (ii) a $62 million increase in legal loss contingencies due to a provision recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2026 in connection with the Indian GST matter.
Technology, research and development expenses increased by 19%, to $559 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $471 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, due to (i) a $46 million increase in our International segment primarily driven by (a) a $16 million increase due to the acquisitions of Snai and NSX, (b) employee costs driven by investment in research and development activities, (c) server migration costs and, (d) inflation, and (ii) a $30 million increase in our US segment, primarily due to increased server and cloud services costs to match the scaling of our business and investments in FanDuel Predicts.
Sales and marketing expenses increased by 21%, to $1,978 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $1,629 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. In our US segment, sales and marketing expenses increased by 24%, or 410 basis points, as percentage of revenue, primarily driven by investment in the FIFA World Cup, new state launches and in FanDuel Predicts. In our International segment, sales and marketing expenses increased by $137 million, or 20%, with the acquisitions of Snai and NSX contributing $115 million of the increase. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expenses increased by 30 basis points to 15.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to increased spend during the FIFA World Cup and continued investment in Brazil, partially offset by reduced spend in India and lower relative sales and marketing spend in Snai. The increase in sales and marketing expenses were also driven by an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $70 million, primarily due to amortization of acquired intangible assets from the Snai and NSX acquisitions and change in estimated useful lives in our SkyBet and PokerStars brands.
General and administrative expenses increased by 13%, to $1,078 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $956 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily as a result of (i) a $29 million increase in our US segment, primarily due to increased headcount and legal costs, and (ii) a $21 million increase in our International segment. In our International segment, the increase was primarily driven by (a) the acquisitions of Snai and NSX which contributed a $34 million increase, (b) a $27 million increase in SEA driven by higher staff costs and inflation, in addition to the impact of Snai, and (c) a partial offset of $42 million in the UKI primarily due to savings from retail closures and reclassification of the UK gambling levy to cost of sales. Additionally, there was a period over period increase of $32 million in legal loss contingencies due to an accrual for historical US sales and use tax and an $11 million increase in transaction fees and associated costs, primarily driven by a super political action committee contribution made by FanDuel to strengthen our advocacy initiatives, partially offset by Snai and NSX transaction costs in the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Operating (loss) profit decreased by $677 million, to a $65 million loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from a $612 million profit for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as a result of the factors above.
Other income, net increased by $176 million, to $318 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $142 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by a movement in the fair value change on the Fox Option liability of $209 million to a gain of $333 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from a gain of $124 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, partially offset by a decrease in foreign exchange gain (loss) of $41 million to a loss of $8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to a gain of $33 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Interest expense, net increased by $123 million, to $318 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $195 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to (a) a $106 million increase in interest expense resulting from the June 2025 issuance and subsequent third-quarter 2025 issuances of the Senior Secured Notes due 2031 and the USD First Lien Term Loan B due 2032, and (b) a $17 million reduction in interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents balances driven by lower interest rates.
Income tax expense decreased by $165 million, to $22 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $187 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily attributable to the variability in pre-tax book income and loss and the jurisdictional mix of profits in which the Group has a taxable presence. It also reflected the (i) $28 million of income tax expense related to the reorganization of the Betfair Brazil business in fiscal year 2025, and (ii) a share-based compensation tax shortfall of $13 million for six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to an excess tax benefit of $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Net (loss) income decreased by $459 million, to a $87 million net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $372 million of net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and net income margin decreased to 1.0% net loss margin from 4.7% net income margin for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as a result of the factors above.

Total revenue for our U.S. segment was flat period over period, and AMPs of 4.1 million increased by 4% period over period.
Sportsbook revenue decreased by 7%, primarily driven by a 4% period over period decrease in stakes to $25,314 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and a decrease in net revenue margin.
Sportsbook net revenue margin decreased by 30 basis points period over period to 8.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 8.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. This reflected an increase in promotional spend period over period of 90 basis points primarily due to investment in new state launches and in the FIFA World Cup. Structural revenue margin was flat at 13.9% for both the six months ended June 30, 2026 and the six months ended June 30, 2025, where a reduced proportion of NFL and NBA volume was offset by soccer performance and high penetration of same game parlay during the FIFA World Cup. There was a positive impact from sports results of 60 basis points period over period (six months ended June 30, 2026: 10 basis points unfavorable, six months ended June 30, 2025: 70 basis points unfavorable).
iGaming revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased by 17%, driven by an increase in AMPs of 12% period over period to 1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Other revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased by 2% period over period. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in horse racing revenue, driven by an outage with our payment gateway provider which has since been resolved.
Adjusted EBITDA for our U.S. segment was $238 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, a $323 million decrease compared to $561 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 6.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 16.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
The overall decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin was driven by (i) a 410 basis points increase in sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue reflecting the investments in the FIFA World Cup, new state launches and FanDuel Predicts, (ii) a 340 basis points increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue, primarily driven by tax rate increases of 210 basis points, and the relatively higher proportion of revenue generated in iGaming, which attracts cost of sales at a higher rate, (iii) a 90 basis points increase in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues primarily due to increased headcount and legal costs, and (iv) an 90 basis points increase in technology, research and development expenses as a percentage of revenues due to increased server costs, cloud service costs and investment in FanDuel Predicts.

Total revenue for our International segment increased by 18%, to $5,184 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $4,395 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, with the acquisitions of Snai and NSX contributing an increase in revenue of 12%.

Sportsbook stakes grew 21% period over period, with Snai and NSX contributing 13% of the period over period growth, offsetting a decline in net revenue margin. Favorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates contributed to sportsbook revenue growth of 7% period over period.
Sportsbook net revenue margin decreased by 40 basis points period over period to 12.5%. Structural revenue margin decreased by 30 basis points driven by the impact of faster growth in regions with currently lower structural revenue margins, including SEA, CEE and Brazil. There was a 60 basis points adverse impact from unfavorable sports results compared with favorable sports results in the prior period (six months ended June 30, 2026: 40 basis points unfavorable, six months ended June 30, 2025: 20 basis points favorable). A 50 basis points reduction in promotional spend to 3.5% of stakes had a positive impact on net revenue margin, partially offsetting the impacts set out above, and was driven by (i) the impact of the Snai and NSX acquisitions, where the acquired businesses currently have a lower level of promotional spend, and (ii) efficiency improvements in APAC, UKI and CEE, which were partially offset by increased investment in UKI and Brazil for the FIFA World Cup.

A favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates contributed sportsbook revenue growth of 6%. iGaming revenue grew 63% period over period benefiting from (i) the acquisition of Snai, which contributed an increase in revenue of 34%, (ii) growth in Sisal Italy, (iii) expanded product offerings in Türkiye and (iv) the transfer of PokerStars' Southern European customers to SEA from Other regions, which contributed 10% growth. A favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates contributed iGaming revenue growth of 6%.
APAC revenue decreased by 2% period over period. Sportsbook revenue in Australia was 12% higher, primarily driven by an increase in amounts staked of 9%, due to a favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates of 11%, which more than offset a decline in greyhound racing. iGaming revenue declined in India by 100% period over period, which reflects the prohibition of real-money gaming and subsequent cessation of our Indian operations in August 2025.
CEE revenue grew 19% period over period primarily reflecting Flutter Edge driven product improvements resulting in (i) iGaming growth of 17% period over period, due to increased market share in Serbia, Georgia and Armenia, and (ii) an increase in sportsbook handle of 24% period over period, which were partially offset by unfavorable sports results. A favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates contributed revenue growth of 5%.
Brazil revenue grew 175% period over period, with NSX contributing 168% of revenue growth and Betfair Brazil contributing revenue growth of 7% period over period as we lapped re-registration friction in the prior year following the regulation of the Brazilian market in January 2025. A favorable change in foreign currency exchange rates contributed revenue growth of 11%.
Other regions revenue decreased by 30% period over period, primarily driven by (i) a 21% decrease due to the transfer of PokerStars' Southern European customers to the SEA region and PokerStars’ North America customers to US segment and (ii) by continued declines in activity on the PokerStars global platform.
Adjusted EBITDA for International was $1,063 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, a 4% decrease from $1,109 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by 470 basis points to 20.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The acquisitions of Snai and NSX contributed to the increase in Adjusted EBITDA by $55 million and the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin by 100 basis points.
The overall decrease in Adjusted EBITDA margin was primarily driven by an increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue of 530 basis points from 45.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, to 50.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, due to an increase of remote gaming tax in UKI and the acquisition of Snai which has higher cost of sales as a percentage of revenue. These were partially offset by a 100 basis points decrease in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues, as revenues increased at a higher rate than general and administrative expenses, as a result of operational leverage.

Supplemental Disclosure of Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is defined on a Group basis as income (loss) before income taxes; other (expense) income, net; interest expense, net; depreciation and amortization; transaction fees and associated costs; restructuring and integration costs; legal (settlements) loss contingencies; gaming tax disputes; impairment of property and equipment, intangible assets, right-of-use assets and goodwill and share-based compensation charge. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP measures and should not be viewed as measures of overall operating performance, indicators of our performance, considered in isolation, or construed as alternatives to operating profit or net income (loss) measures, or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities, as measures of liquidity, or as alternatives to any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP.
These non-GAAP measures are presented solely as supplemental disclosures to reported GAAP measures because we believe that this non-GAAP supplemental information will be helpful in understanding our ongoing operating results and these measures are widely used by analysts, lenders, financial institutions, and investors as measures of performance. Management has historically used Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin when evaluating operating performance because we believe that they provide additional perspective on the financial performance of our core business.
In presenting Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, the Group excludes certain items as explained below:
•Transaction fees and associated costs and restructuring and integration costs, which include charges for discrete projects or transactions that significantly change our operations, are excluded because they are not part of the ongoing operations of our business, which includes normal levels of reinvestment in the business.
•Legal (settlements)/loss contingencies and gaming tax disputes, which include charges for specific investigations and litigation, are excluded due to the difficulty in predicting their timing and scope and because they are considered by management to be outside the normal course of business.
•Other (expense) income, net is excluded because it is not indicative of our core operating performance.
•Impairment of property and equipment, intangible assets, right-of-use assets and goodwill, which may arise from time to time that would impact comparability. We do not consider impairment when evaluating the Company’s performance, when making decisions regarding the allocation of resources, in determining incentive compensation, or in determining earnings estimates.
•Share-based compensation expense is excluded as this could vary widely among companies due to different plans in place resulting in companies using share-based compensation awards differently, both in type and quantity of awards granted.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not measures of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with GAAP. They are unaudited and should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as indicators of our operating performance. In addition, other companies in the betting and gaming industry that report Adjusted EBITDA may calculate Adjusted EBITDA in a different manner and such differences may be material. The definition of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may not be the same as the definitions used in any of our debt agreements.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin have further limitations as an analytical tool. Some of these limitations are:
•they do not reflect the Group’s cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditure or contractual commitments;
•they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Group’s working capital needs;
•they do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on the Group’s debt;
•they do not reflect shared-based compensation expense, which is primarily a non-cash charge that is part of our employee compensation;
•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
•they are not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in the Group’s statements of cash flows; and

•the further adjustments made in calculating Adjusted EBITDA are those that management consider not to be representative of the underlying operations of the Group and therefore are subjective in nature.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and borrowings from various financial institutions and debt investors. We expect to continue to have cash requirements to support working capital needs and capital expenditures, to pay interest and service our long-term debt, to service our obligations under our operating leases, and to repurchase our ordinary shares subject to economic and market conditions and our capital requirements, and otherwise as described below under “Other Purchase Obligations.” We believe we have the ability and sufficient capacity to meet these cash requirements in the short term and long term by using available cash, internally generated funds and borrowings under the Group’s £1.1 billion committed revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2026, we had $1,563 million of cash and cash equivalents available for corporate use.
Long-term Debt
As of June 30, 2026, we had an aggregate principal amount of long-term debt of $12 billion, with $52 million due within 12 months. In addition, we are obligated to make periodic interest payments at variable rates, depending on the terms of the applicable debt agreements. Based on applicable interest rates and scheduled debt maturities as of June 30, 2026, our total interest obligation on long-term debt totaled $660 million payable within 12 months net of hedging. Actual future interest payments may differ from these amounts based on changes in floating interest rates or other factors or events. Excluded from these amounts are other costs related to indebtedness.

Leases
We have lease arrangements primarily for offices, retail stores and data centers. As of June 30, 2026, the Group had operating lease obligations of $581 million with $153 million payable within 12 months.
Share Repurchase Programs
On September 25, 2024, our Board authorized a share repurchase program (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”) of up to $5 billion of our ordinary shares. The authorization does not have a stated expiration date. The timing and the actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including legal requirements, price, economic and market conditions and our capital requirements. We may from time to time in the future repurchase shares on the open market on a case by case basis or on a non-discretionary basis pursuant to a plan or in any other manner designed to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), through block trades, in privately negotiated transactions, by effecting a tender offer, through the purchase of call options or the sale of put options, or otherwise, or by any combination of the foregoing. As of June 30, 2026, Flutter has repurchased 6,777,545 ordinary shares under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program for a total of $1,372 million.
Other Purchase Obligations
As of June 30, 2026, material cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations relating to sponsorship, marketing, media and other agreements totaled $5,096 million, which includes capital expenditure commitments contracted for but not yet incurred of $7 million. Contractual and other obligations payable in the remainder of fiscal 2026 are $880 million.
Cash Flow Information
The following table summarizes our condensed consolidated cash flow information for the periods presented:
Six months ended June 30,
($ in millions) 2026 2025
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities $ 693 $ 547
Investing activities $ (342) $ (2,965)
Financing activities $ (513) $ 2,262
Six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to six months ended June 30, 2025:
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026, increased by $146 million, or 27%, to $693 million compared to $547 million of net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
The movement in our cash flows from operating activities was primarily driven by (i) a cash inflow in player deposit liabilities of $433 million from higher customer balances due to the Fifa World Cup in the six months ended June 30, 2026 and payment of lottery winnings by Sisal in the six months ended June 30, 2025 as a result of the rollover of the lottery jackpot as of December 31, 2024, (ii) a cash inflow in other liabilities of $477 million primarily due to (a) higher accrued expenses period over period driven by gambling duty increases in UKI, the Fifa World Cup and timing of payments across the Group, (b) higher open bets primarily driven by the Fifa World Cup in the six months ended June 30, 2026, (c) lower employee bonus pay out period over period and (d) an increase in legal provisions primarily in connection with the Indian GST matter and (iii) a decrease in income tax payments of $93 million primarily due to a payment of a Snai pre acquisition tax liability in the six months ended June 30, 2025 and utilization of US income tax overpayments made during the six months ended June 30, 2025 in the six months ended June 30, 2026. This was partially offset by (i) an increase in interest payments of $108 million due to higher debt balances period over period, (ii) decreased inflows of $100 million in player deposit investments primarily driven by the selling of debt securities to invest in money market funds during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and (iii) higher operating costs period over period.

Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $2,623 million, or 88%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, to $342 million compared to $2,965 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 driven by a $2,688 decrease in acquisitions net of cash acquired due to the acquisitions of Snai and NSX in the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Financing Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net cash used in financing activities increased by $2,775 million, to $513 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $2,262 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by (i) a decrease in repayment of long-term debt of $2,085 million period over period primarily driven by repayments on our bridge credit agreement which financed the acquisition of Snai in the six months ended June 30, 2025 which was partially offset by (i) increased repayments on our GBP Revolving Credit Facility due 2028 and (ii) a $319 decrease in repurchase of ordinary shares and taxes withheld and paid on employee share awards driven by lower share repurchases period over period.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based on these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires the application of accounting policies in addition to certain estimates and judgments by our management. Our estimates and judgments are based on currently available information, historical results and other assumptions we believe are reasonable. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
Fox Option liability
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, there were no changes to the fair value measurement approach for the Fox Option liability as discussed in the 2025 Annual Report. For the input of subjective assumptions used in the option pricing model, please see Note 15 “Fair Value Measurements” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report.
Changes in assumptions, each in isolation, may change the fair value of the Fox Option liability. Generally, a decrease in the equity value of the investor units, volatility and the probability of FOX getting licensed and an increase in DLOM and DLOC may result in a decrease in the fair value of the Fox Option liability. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of the Fox Option liability, the fair value of the Fox Option liability may fluctuate from period to period.
Additionally, the fair value of the Fox Option liability may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a readily available market existed for FanDuel. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the Fox Option may cause the losses ultimately realized on the Fox Option to be different than the unrealized losses reflected in the valuations currently assigned. The range in fair value as of June 30, 2026, is $1 million to $748 million, assuming a 10% increase/decrease in the equity value of the investor units and using the upper and lower end of the ranges of volatility, DLOC and DLOM, as disclosed in Note 15 “Fair Value Measurements” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report.

Litigation and Claims
We are regularly involved as plaintiffs or defendants in claims and litigation related to our past and current business operations. We establish an accrued liability for legal claims and indemnification claims when we determine that a loss is both probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Our estimates are based on all known facts at the time and our assessment of the ultimate outcome. As additional information becomes available, we reassess the potential liability related to our pending claims and litigation and may revise our estimates. The amount of any loss ultimately incurred in relation to matters for which an accrual has been established may be higher or lower than the amounts accrued for such matters. The estimates require significant judgment, given the varying stages of the proceedings, the numerous yet-unresolved issues in many of the claims and the uncertainty of the various potential outcomes of such claims. We vigorously defend ourselves against what we believe are improper claims, including those asserted in litigation. Due to the unpredictable nature of litigation, there can be no assurance that our accruals will be sufficient to cover the extent of our potential exposure to losses. Any fees, expenses, fines, penalties, judgments or settlements which might be incurred by us in connection with the various proceedings could affect our results of operations and financial condition. Please see Note 16 “Commitments and Contingencies” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report.
Valuation of Assets and Liabilities Acquired in a Business Combination
The accounting for a business combination requires the excess of the purchase price for an acquisition over the net book value of assets acquired to be allocated to identifiable assets, including intangible assets. Valuations are performed by independent valuation specialists under management’s supervision. We use various recognized valuation methods including present value modelling.
Significant estimates and assumptions that we must make in estimating the fair value of acquired trademarks and customer relationships include future cash flows that we expect to generate from the acquired assets, including expected revenue growth rates, estimated royalty rates, customer attrition rates, profitability and discount rates.
The fair value of the acquired trade name is generally estimated using the relief from royalty method, which calculates the cost savings associated with owning rather than licensing the trade name. Assumed royalty rates are applied to the projected revenues for the remaining useful life of the trade name to estimate the royalty savings. The fair value of customer relationships is estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method. The multi-period excess earnings method model estimates revenues and cash flows derived from the primary asset and then deducts portions of the cash flow that can be attributed to supporting assets, such as trade name, technology and working capital that contributed to the generation of the cash flows. The resulting cash flow, which is attributable solely to the primary asset acquired, is then discounted at a rate of return commensurate with the risk of the asset to calculate a present value. Please see Note 11 “Business Combinations” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report.
We believe that the estimated fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on reasonable assumptions that a marketplace participant would use. While we use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, our estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. If the subsequent actual results and updated projections of the underlying business activity change compared with the assumptions and projections used to develop these values, we could record impairment charges. In addition, we have estimated the economic lives of certain acquired assets and these lives are used to calculate depreciation and amortization expense. If our estimates of the economic lives change, depreciation or amortization expenses could be accelerated or slowed.
