BOSTON, Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DraftKings Inc. (NASDAQ:DKNG) ("DraftKings" or the "Company") today announced its third quarter 2025 financial results. The Company also posted a third quarter 2025 business update and a slide presentation on the Investor Relations section of its website at investors.draftkings.com.

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, DraftKings reported revenue of $1,144 million, an increase of $49 million, or 4%, compared to $1,095 million during the same period in 2024. The increase in the Company's third quarter 2025 revenue was driven by continued healthy customer engagement, efficient acquisition of new customers, and higher structural Sportsbook hold percentage, partially offset by customer-friendly sport outcomes. Adjusting for sport outcome impacts across periods, third quarter 2025 revenue growth was strong. In October, Sportsbook Handle increased 17% year-over-year.

"This is the most bullish I have ever felt about our future," said Jason Robins, DraftKings' Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder. "Underlying growth in the business is accelerating and we are excited to launch DraftKings Predictions in the coming months, which we view as a significant incremental opportunity."

"With handle growth accelerating and parlay handle mix continuing to increase, we are excited about the trajectory of our Free Cash Flow," said Alan Ellingson, DraftKings' Chief Financial Officer. "We continue to focus on maximizing shareholder returns and are pleased to announce that our board authorized an increase in our share repurchase program from $1.0 billion to $2.0 billion."

Continued Customer Retention, Acquisition, and Engagement

Monthly Unique Payers ("MUPs") increased approximately 2% to 3.6 million average monthly unique paying customers in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024. This increase reflects strong unique payer retention and acquisition across DraftKings' Sportsbook and iGaming product offerings. Excluding Jackpocket, MUPs increased by 6% compared to the third quarter of 2024.

Average Revenue per MUP ("ARPMUP") increased to $106 in the third quarter of 2025, representing a 3% increase compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increased revenue in iGaming as well as structural improvement in our Sportsbook hold percentage, partially offset by customer-friendly sport outcomes for Sportsbook.

Detailed financial data and other operational information for the third quarter of 2025 is available in the financial statements set forth below under the caption "Financial and Operational Results."

Fiscal Year 2025 Guidance

DraftKings is revising its fiscal year 2025 revenue guidance. The Company now expects fiscal year 2025 revenue of $5.9 billion to $6.1 billion. The Company's updated guidance range equates to year-over-year growth of 24% to 28% based on the Company's fiscal year 2024 revenue.

DraftKings is revising its fiscal year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA guidance. The Company now expects fiscal year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA of $450 million to $550 million.

The Company's guidance includes anticipated financial impacts from DraftKings launching mobile sports betting in Missouri later this year.

The Company's guidance for fiscal year 2025 now includes the expected launch of DraftKings Predictions in the coming months, pending licensure.

Mobile Sports Betting and iGaming Footprint

DraftKings is live with mobile sports betting in 25 states and Washington, D.C., which collectively represent approximately 49% of the U.S. population. DraftKings expects to launch its Sportsbook product in Missouri pending market access, licensure, regulatory approvals, and contractual approvals where applicable.

DraftKings is also live with iGaming in 5 states, which collectively represent 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.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Free Cash Flow, 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, Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Free Cash Flow 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, Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Free Cash Flow 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 income (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 (Loss) Per Share as basic earnings (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; other non-recurring and non-operating costs or income; and the tax impact of adjusting items, as described in the reconciliation below.

DraftKings defines and calculates Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less investments into property and equipment and capitalized software, adjusted for sources or uses of cash from changes in net working capital and sources or uses of cash from net cash interest, and less corporate cash taxes paid.

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, Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Free Cash Flow 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 income (loss), which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, for the periods indicated:

^{* Weighted average number of shares used to calculate Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was 496.6 million and 486.2 million, respectively, and 495.5 million and 480.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively; totals may not add due to rounding.}

^{(1) The amounts include the amortization of acquired intangible assets of $33.9 million and $55.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $113.0 million and $121.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.}

^{(2) The Company recorded a discrete income tax benefit of $75.8 million during the second quarter of 2024 which was attributable to non-recurring partial releases of the Company's U.S. valuation allowance as a result of the purchase accounting for Jackpocket.}

^{(3) Reflects stock-based compensation expenses resulting from the issuance of awards under incentive plans.}

^{(4) Includes capital markets advisory, consulting, accounting and legal expenses related to the evaluation, negotiation, and consummation of transactions and offerings that are under consideration, pending, or completed, as well as integration costs related to acquisitions.}

^{(5) Primarily includes external legal costs related to litigation and litigation settlement costs deemed unrelated to our ordinary-course business operations.}

^{(6) Reflects non-recurring and non-ordinary course costs relating to advocacy efforts and other legal expenses in jurisdictions where we do not operate certain product offerings and are 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 we do 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 we currently operate.}

^{(7) Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, the Company began applying an estimated non-GAAP effective tax rate, which is 23% as of the third quarter of 2025. The non-GAAP effective tax rate reflects the non-GAAP tax provision commensurate with the Company's level of non-GAAP profitability, which was determined after adjusting for the non-GAAP adjustments presented above and excluding the impact of changes in the valuation allowance.}

Information reconciling forward-looking fiscal year 2025 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.
