Insights

Derivatives and insider transactions analyst

Large shareholder increased economic exposure via a cash-settled total return swap.

The filing shows a net buy of derivative exposure: LBS Limited, associated with Kenneth Bryan Dart, entered a total return swap on 245,936 notional Flutter shares at a $108.8074 reference price. This raises his reported indirect exposure to 6,500,314 notional shares.

The swap is cash-settled at maturity on March 2, 2028. Dart’s entity bears losses if the share price falls below the reference level and benefits if it rises, while receiving dividend-equivalent payments and paying SOFR-based financing costs. This is an economic, not voting, position.

A footnote clarifies that LBS Limited is the direct party to the swap and Dart disclaims beneficial ownership except for his pecuniary interest. The transaction size is meaningful but represents a minority of the reported notional exposure, suggesting an incremental rather than transformative position change.
