    BOSTON, May 04, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DraftKings Inc. (NASDAQ:DKNG) ("DraftKings" or the "Company") today announced its first quarter 2023 financial results. The Company also posted a first quarter 2023 business update and an earnings presentation on the Investor Relations section of its website at investors.draftkings.com.

    First Quarter 2023 Highlights

    For the three months ended March 31, 2023, DraftKings reported revenue of $770 million, an increase of 84% compared to $417 million during the same period in 2022 driven primarily by efficient acquisition of new customers, product innovation driving higher hold percentage, decreased promotional intensity in more mature states, and continued healthy customer retention.

    "DraftKings' first quarter performance – 84% year-over-year revenue growth and share gains underpinned by a relentless focus on operational efficiency – demonstrates that this is a company positioned for sustained success," said Jason Robins, DraftKings' Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder. "We delivered highly successful online sportsbook launches in Ohio and our home state of Massachusetts and continued to create meaningful product differentiation driven by in-house innovations. We acquired customers faster and more efficiently and, importantly, saw healthy retention across cohorts. Looking at the remainder of 2023, I am confident DraftKings is well-positioned to achieve profitability on an Adjusted EBITDA basis in the near-term and deliver long-term value for our shareholders."

    "Strong execution across the organization is showing up in our results," added Jason Park, DraftKings' Chief Financial Officer. "Revenue grew at a healthy rate due to core drivers around customer acquisition, retention and monetization, including decreased promotional intensity and higher structural hold. In addition, our efficiency efforts produced clear results as demonstrated by significant year-over-year increases in gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA. Therefore, we are increasing the midpoint of our fiscal year 2023 revenue guidance to $3.185 billion from $2.95 billion and improving the midpoint of our fiscal year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to ($315) million from ($400) million."

    Continued Healthy Growth in Customer Retention, Acquisition, and Engagement

    • Monthly Unique Payers ("MUPs") increased to 2.8 million average monthly unique paying customers in the first quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 39% compared to the first quarter of 2022. This increase reflects strong unique payer retention and acquisition across DraftKings' Sportsbook and iGaming products as well as the expansion of its Sportsbook and iGaming products into new jurisdictions.



    • Average Revenue per MUP ("ARPMUP") was $92 in the first quarter of 2023, representing a 35% increase compared to the same period in 2022. This increase was primarily due to improvement in the Company's structural sportsbook hold rate and reduced promotional intensity.



    • Detailed financial data and other information for the first quarter of 2023 is available in the financial statements set forth below under the caption "Financial Results."

    Raising 2023 Revenue Guidance and Improving 2023 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance

    • DraftKings is raising its fiscal year 2023 revenue guidance to a range of $3.135 billion to $3.235 billion from the range of $2.85 billion to $3.05 billion, which the Company previously announced on February 16, 2023. The Company's updated 2023 revenue guidance range equates to year-over-year growth of 40% to 44%.



    • DraftKings is also improving its fiscal year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA guidance. The Company now expects fiscal year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA of between ($290) million and ($340) million compared to its prior fiscal year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA guidance of between ($350) million and ($450) million, which the Company previously announced on February 16, 2023.



    • The Company's revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance for fiscal year 2023 includes all the existing jurisdictions in which it is live plus Puerto Rico, in which it expects to launch during the guided period.

    Expanded Mobile Sports Betting Footprint

    • DraftKings is live with mobile sports betting in 21 states that collectively represent approximately 44% of the U.S. population following the launch of its online Sportsbook product in Massachusetts on March 10, 2023.



    • DraftKings is also live with iGaming in 5 states, representing approximately 11% of the U.S. population.



    • DraftKings is live with its Sportsbook and iGaming products in Ontario, Canada, which represents approximately 40% of Canada's population.



    • Kentucky and Puerto Rico have authorized mobile sports betting and collectively represent approximately 2% of the U.S. population. DraftKings expects to launch its Sportsbook product in these jurisdictions pending licensure and regulatory approvals.



    • In 2023, 12 states that collectively represent approximately 24% of the U.S. population have either introduced legislation to legalize mobile sports betting or introduced bills that may result in sports wagering referendums during an upcoming election. In addition, 5 states that collectively represent approximately 14% of the U.S. population have either introduced legislation to legalize iGaming or introduced a bill that may result in an iGaming referendum during an upcoming election.

    Webcast and Conference Call Details

    As previously announced, DraftKings will host a conference call and audio webcast tomorrow, Friday, May 5, 2023, at 8:30 a.m. ET, during which management will discuss the Company's results for the quarter and provide commentary on business performance. A question and answer session will follow the prepared remarks.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    This press release includes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings Per Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures that DraftKings uses to supplement its results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are useful in evaluating its operating performance, similar to measures reported by its publicly-listed U.S. competitors, and regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are not intended to be substitutes for any GAAP financial measures, and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.

    DraftKings defines and calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net loss before the impact of interest income or expense (net), income tax provision or benefit, and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the following items: stock-based compensation; transaction-related costs; litigation, settlement and related costs; advocacy and other related legal expenses; gain or loss on remeasurement of warrant liabilities; and other non-recurring and non-operating costs or income, as described in the reconciliation below.

    DraftKings defines and calculates Adjusted Earnings Per Share as basic and diluted loss per share attributable to common stockholders before the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets; stock-based compensation; transaction-related costs; litigation, settlement and related costs; advocacy and other related legal expenses; gain or loss on remeasurement of warrant liabilities; and other non-recurring and non-operating costs or income, as described in the reconciliation below.

    DraftKings includes these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by management to evaluate the Company's core operating performance and trends and to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings Per Share exclude certain expenses that are required in accordance with GAAP because they are non-recurring items (for example, in the case of transaction-related costs and advocacy and other related legal expenses), non-cash expenditures (for example, in the case of amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, remeasurement of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation), or non-operating items which are not related to the Company's underlying business performance (for example, in the case of interest income and expense and litigation, settlement and related costs).

    The unaudited table below presents the Company's Adjusted EBITDA reconciled to its net loss, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, for the periods indicated:

    (5) Reflects non-recurring and non-ordinary course costs relating to advocacy efforts and other legal expenses in jurisdictions where DraftKings does not operate certain product offerings and is actively seeking licensure, or similar approval, for those product offerings.

This adjustment excludes (i) costs relating to advocacy efforts and other legal expenses in jurisdictions where DraftKings does not operate that are incurred in the ordinary course of business and (ii) costs relating to advocacy efforts and other legal expenses incurred in jurisdictions where related legislation has been passed and DraftKings currently operates.

    (6) Primarily includes the change in fair value of certain financial assets, as well as the Company's equity method share of the investee's losses and other costs relating to non-recurring and non-operating items.

    Information reconciling forward-looking fiscal year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net income (loss), is unavailable to DraftKings without unreasonable effort due to, among other things, certain items required for such reconciliations being outside of DraftKings' control and/or not being able to be reasonably predicted. Preparation of such reconciliations would require a forward-looking balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flow, prepared in accordance with GAAP, and such forward-looking financial statements are unavailable to the Company without unreasonable effort. DraftKings provides a range for its Adjusted EBITDA forecast that it believes will be achieved; however, the Company cannot provide any assurance that it can predict all of the components of the Adjusted EBITDA calculation. DraftKings provides a forecast for Adjusted EBITDA because it believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with DraftKings' results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provides useful information for the reasons noted above. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or cash flow from operating activities or as an indicator of operating performance or liquidity.
