Flutter Entertainment plc (FLUT)

Online betting and gaming, 28,518, 11% U.S.. Read October 3, 2026 from the annual report for the period ending December 31, 2025, filed February 26, 2026. Ranked 33 of the 75 Consumer Cyclical companies read so far, by the share within reach now.

The filing states the total, the U.S. share and the technology function's count, so software takes its share by count (a) and the rest is the gambling pattern by description (c).

The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.

What follows from the reading

Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 21% now, 34% at the end of 2027, 39% at the end of 2028, 41% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 41% desk work, 20% people work and 39% body work. These are the site's industry estimates weighted by the shares below: estimates with a stated method and range, not a forecast of what the company will do. By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 61% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 30% becomes checking a model's work and 6% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.

What the filing says about AI

26 sentences in the filing name AI. Twenty-six sentences: the use of AI and machine learning in the business named as a risk, the emerging patchwork of U.S. state AI regulation, and the EU AI Act among the laws it faces.

• “We use artificial intelligence ("AI"), machine learning and similar technologies in our business, which may present business, compliance, and reputational risks.”
• “In the absence of comprehensive federal legislation, there is also an emerging multi-state patchwork of artificial intelligence regulation, which is likely to impose compliance costs on our business and constrain our ability to fully leverage these technologies.”
• “(vii) Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act) - Introduces a risk-based framework for AI systems; fines up to €35 million or 7% of global annual turnover.”
• “These laws collectively address platform accountability, algorithmic transparency, data portability, cybersecurity, and AI governance, requiring ongoing investment in compliance, governance, and technology.”
• “The UK, US, Canada, Brazil, Australia, and several APAC jurisdictions are introducing or strengthening laws on data protection, AI governance, and cybersecurity.”
