Flutter Goes Live on NYSE

Online gaming giant Flutter Entertainment has been listed on the New York Stock Exchange, marking a first for the Irish company.

The listing went live at 9:30 AM on January 29th, and saw the company having a large banner deployed on the stock exchange's building. The company announced it was going to be launching on the NYSE in December, with the deadline to go live being yesterday. Flutter is perhaps the largest online gaming operator in the industry, as it oversees the popular US gaming brand FanDuel, as well as Paddy Power, Betfair, Sky Betting and Gaming, and others.

The NYSE launch is the second stock market in which Flutter is active, as the company currently trades on the London Stock Exchange. Flutter has said that they're not going to remove the London listing and will instead use the U.S. listing to leverage investment in the North American market.

Flutter CEO Peter Jackson commented on the launch earlier in January, noting: "The additional listing will enable us to access deeper capital markets as well as making Flutter more accessible to U.S. investors and marks a new chapter in the history of the Flutter Group."

As of press time, Flutter's NYSE stock price was at $207.80 in pre-market trading.
