Berenberg said Flutter Entertainment did not make its ascent into being a global leader in sports betting and iGaming without having to pass over some hurdles.
"Early implementation of enhanced due diligence measures in the UK, transformational acquisitions as well as a period of high leverage have all been bear points over the years, but Flutter has passed over them successfully," said Berenberg.
Looking ahead, the German bank reckons Flutter has well-positioned itself to continue to deliver solid growth, maintain its market-leading position and achieve its mid-term growth ambitions.
Berenberg, which has a 'buy' rating on the stock, values Flutter using a sum-of-the-parts model.
