Context
- This is a derivative (total-return swap) that creates economic exposure to Flutter shares rather than transferring issued shares into Mr. Dart’s name. Such swaps result in cash settlement based on price movements and dividend equivalents; they are different from outright open-market purchases of stock. As a 10% owner via affiliated entities, Mr. Dart’s reported activity reflects institutional/ownership arrangements rather than routine executive exercises or grants.
