Its international division grew revenue 21% year-over-year, providing a steady stream of cash flow that subsidizes its U.S. growth wars. The model values this diversification highly, viewing the recent drop as a \u201csale\u201d on a high-quality compounder.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Profitability Gap:<\/strong> The market is pricing FLUT as if its margins will collapse. However, the model projects net income margins expanding to 16.4% over the next decade as the U.S. market matures and marketing spend rationalizes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:<\/strong> A baby thrown out with the bathwater. With a projected 37.9% annualized return and a dominant market position, Flutter is being unfairly punished for its rival\u2019s weakness.
