Flutter Entertainment has shut the door on London trading and made New York its sole stock-market home, while Paddy Power, Betfair, Sky Bet and tombola remain part of its UK and Ireland business.
London Listing Is Officially Over
Flutter’s shares were removed from the London Stock Exchange and the UK Financial Conduct Authority’s Official List at 7:00 a.m. UK time on August 3, 2026. Its ordinary shares now trade exclusively on the New York Stock Exchange under the FLUT ticker.
The delisting followed a review announced earlier in the year. Flutter weighed the costs and regulatory workload of maintaining a second listing against relatively limited trading activity in London, eventually deciding that one exchange would do the job. Its final full trading day on the LSE was July 31, when the shares closed at £75.88.
FanDuel Pulls the Business West
Flutter first listed in New York in January 2024 and made the NYSE its primary market several months later. The latest move finishes that transition rather than starting a new one.
The logic is easy enough to spot. FanDuel has turned the US into a core market for the group, bringing Flutter closer to American customers, regulators and investors. During the first quarter of 2026, Flutter generated $4.30 billion in total revenue, up 17% from the previous year. Its US division contributed $1.76 billion, roughly 41% of the group total.
That makes New York the more natural home for the shares. Investors looking at Flutter are increasingly looking at FanDuel, US sports betting and American iGaming, even though the company still owns a packed collection of brands elsewhere.
A Long London Chapter Closes
Flutter’s London roots stretch back more than two decades. Paddy Power joined the LSE in 2000, merged with Betfair in 2016 and later expanded across the Atlantic through FanDuel after the US sports betting landscape opened up in 2018. The group adopted the Flutter Entertainment name in 2019.
The delisting therefore carries a little corporate nostalgia, but not much operational drama. Flutter still owns Paddy Power, Sky Betting & Gaming, Betfair and tombola, and the UK and Ireland remain an important part of its international business.
What Players Should Expect
For the average sportsbook or casino customer, this is mostly boardroom housekeeping. Flutter’s announcement deals with where its shares are bought and sold; it did not announce changes to player accounts, apps, bonuses, withdrawals or access to its UK and Irish brands.
In other words, the Paddy Power app will not suddenly develop a Wall Street accent. The more useful player takeaway is that Flutter’s investment focus is leaning harder toward the US, where FanDuel continues to absorb money for product development, market launches and customer acquisition.
Over time, technology created for that market may filter through the wider group, though Flutter has made no specific promise tied to the delisting.
London Loses a Gambling Heavyweight
Flutter’s departure is another uncomfortable headline for the London market, which has been trying to keep large international companies from shifting listings elsewhere. Losing the owner of FanDuel, Paddy Power and Betfair is hardly a confidence booster, particularly when the company believes its investor base and future growth story fit better in New York.
For Flutter, the paperwork is finished. The company now has one share listing, one ticker and a stock-market address that matches the growing weight of its American business. The casinos and sportsbooks keep running; only the trading floor has changed.
