AI wizkid Leopold Aschenbrenner forced to sell entire portfolio after rout
LONDON - IG Group Holdings plc (LSE:IGG) announced Wednesday it has agreed to acquire Underdog Sports Holdings, Inc., a U.S. daily fantasy sports and prediction markets operator, for total consideration of up to approximately $1.3 billion.
The deal comprises upfront consideration based on an enterprise value of approximately $1.1 billion, to be settled partly through the issuance of IG ordinary shares, and an earnout of approximately $200 million payable to Underdog’s shareholders, according to a press release statement.
Separately, eligible Underdog employees will participate in a management incentive plan with a maximum potential payout of $850 million, self-funded from Underdog’s earnings. The maximum total payout would require Underdog to deliver EBITDA of at least $400 million in 2028 and $700 million in 2029.
The upfront equity value payable on completion is expected to be approximately $963 million. IG will settle this by issuing approximately 24.1 million new ordinary shares, representing approximately 6.8% of IG’s enlarged issued share capital, and a cash payment of approximately $380 million. IG will also repay Underdog’s existing debt at completion, expected to be approximately $160 million.
Since launching prediction markets in September 2025, Underdog has become the third-largest U.S. prediction markets venue by U.S. regulated notional volume flow. The company reported net revenue of approximately $466 million in the 12 months ended June 30, 2026, up 21% from the prior year period.
The acquisition is expected to more than double IG’s U.S. revenues and increase U.S. monthly active customers more than tenfold. On a pro forma basis, the U.S. would represent approximately 40% of Group revenue, up from 22% on a standalone basis.
IG has entered into a committed $450 million bridge facility with Barclays Bank PLC and Goldman Sachs International to fund the transaction. Pro forma gross leverage is expected to be under 2.0x at end-2026. Share buybacks will be paused effective today, with IG expecting to resume them in 2027.
The acquisition is expected to be broadly neutral to adjusted earnings per share in year one and double-digit percent accretive by year three. Completion is expected in late 2026 or early 2027, subject to regulatory approvals.
