Wall Street is bracing for a year-over-year drop in earnings from Flutter Entertainment (FLUT) when the company reports its quarterly results for the period ended June 2026.
Analysts widely expect revenues to climb even as profits fall, creating an unusual split in the company’s financial picture heading into the report.
The earnings release is scheduled for August 5, and the results could meaningfully move the stock depending on how actual figures compare to consensus forecasts.
Flutter is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.58 per share, representing a steep year-over-year decline of 80.3% compared to the same period last year.
Revenue expectations remain more encouraging, with analysts projecting $4.22 billion for the quarter, reflecting growth of 0.7% from the year-ago period.
Despite the earnings pressure, the consensus EPS estimate has actually been revised 15.56% higher over the last 30 days, suggesting some analysts see potential for an upside surprise.
However, the Most Accurate Estimate currently sits below the Zacks Consensus Estimate, pushing Flutter’s Earnings ESP to a negative reading of -9.71%.
Flutter also carries a Zacks Rank of #5, which combined with the negative Earnings ESP makes it difficult to predict a convincing earnings beat for the upcoming release.
The company’s recent track record offers some encouragement, as Flutter beat consensus EPS estimates in each of the last four quarters.
In its most recently reported quarter, Flutter was expected to deliver earnings of $1.15 per share but came in at $1.22, producing a positive surprise of +6.09%.
Analysts and investors will be closely watching management’s commentary on business conditions during the earnings call, which could shape near-term stock direction as much as the numbers themselves.
Also in the gaming sector, Wynn Resorts (WYNN) is expected to post earnings of $1.01 per share for the quarter ended June 2026, reflecting a year-over-year decline of 7.3%.
Wynn’s projected revenue for the quarter stands at $1.84 billion, up 5.9% from the same period a year ago, though its consensus EPS estimate has been revised 2.2% lower over the last 30 days.
Wynn carries an Earnings ESP of +1.49% but also holds a Zacks Rank of #5, making a definitive earnings beat equally difficult to forecast, with the company having surpassed EPS estimates just once over the last four quarters.
