UEFA Euro championship delayed

This latest delay and postponements of sports events leave few betting events in sports-books. The larger the betting exposure, the larger cuts we expect to consensus 2020e earnings. Conversely, we believe online casinos should hold up relatively well, (revenues coming from online casino: Kindred ~50%, Betsson ~70%, LeoVegas ~90%, NetEnt/Evolution 100%). Suspended/postponed events are a key near-term negative, but still temporary. This and the resilient online casino case make us believe the online gambling stocks will recover once focus returns to fundamentals.
