Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Note 1 -Organization and Nature of Business
Incorporation
fuboTV Inc. (“Fubo” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida in February 2009 under the name York Entertainment, Inc. The Company changed its name to FaceBank Group, Inc. on September 30, 2019. On August 10, 2020, the Company changed its name to fuboTV Inc. and as of May 1, 2020, the Company’s trading symbol was changed from “FBNK” to “FUBO.” The Company’s common stock was approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) in connection with a public offering in October 2020 and commenced trading on the NYSE on October 8, 2020.
Unless the context otherwise requires, “Fubo,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refers to the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
Nature of Business
The Company is principally focused on offering consumers a leading live TV streaming platform for sports, news, and entertainment through its streaming platform. The Company’s revenues are almost entirely derived from the sale of subscription services and the sale of advertisements in the United States, though the Company has expanded into several international markets, with operations in Canada, Spain and France.
The Company’s subscription-based streaming services are offered to consumers who can sign-up for accounts through which the Company provides basic plans with the flexibility for consumers to purchase incremental features that include additional content or enhanced functionality ("Attachments") best suited for them. Besides the website, consumers can also sign-up via some TV-connected devices. The Fubo platform provides a broad suite of unique features and personalization tools such as multi-channel viewing capabilities, favorites lists and a dynamic recommendation engine, as well as 4K streaming and Cloud DVR offerings.
Recent Developments
On January 6, 2025, the Company entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, The Walt Disney Company (“Disney”) and Hulu, LLC (“Hulu”), which contemplates, among other things, (i) Hulu contributing certain assets (the “HL Business Assets”) related to the business of negotiating and administering carriage agreements and similar contracts relating to and for the purpose of the retransmission, distribution, carriage, display or broadcast of any programming service, channel or network on the HL DMVPD Service (as defined below) to a newly formed entity to be jointly owned by Hulu and the Company (“Newco”), (ii) the Company undergoing an umbrella partnership C corporation reorganization (the “Up-C Reorganization”) and contributing its business to Newco in exchange for units in Newco (“Newco Units”) such that, after giving effect to such contribution, Hulu will hold a number of Newco Units representing, in the aggregate, a 70% economic interest in Newco and the Company will hold a number of Newco Units representing, in the aggregate, a 30% economic interest in Newco, and (iii) the Company issuing to Hulu shares of a newly created vote-only class of the Company’s common stock (“Class B Common Stock”) representing, in the aggregate, a 70% voting interest in the Company (calculated on a fully-diluted basis) (the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Business Combination”). The HL Business Assets will include certain carriage agreements, rights under joint subscription agreements and related data and information about its subscribers, advertising or sponsorship agreements exclusively related to Hulu’s linear multi-channel subscription video programming distribution service component of the offering known as “Hulu + Live TV” as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement and operated by Hulu (such service, the “HL DMVPD Service”), all other assets (including intellectual property) exclusively related to the HL DMVPD Service and all intellectual property constituting the “Live TV” brand.
Immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), in connection with the Up-C Reorganization, the Company will, among other things, (i) effect a conversion from a Florida corporation to a Delaware corporation pursuant to a plan of conversion and (ii) authorize and adopt a new certificate of incorporation and adopt new bylaws, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. At the Closing, the Company and Hulu, as the members of Newco, will adopt, and Newco will thereafter be governed by, an amended and restated limited liability company agreement of Newco (the “Newco Operating Agreement”). The Newco Operating Agreement will provide, among other things, Hulu a redemption right pursuant to which Hulu may cause Newco to redeem all or a portion of its Newco Units, together with an equivalent number of shares of Class B Common Stock, in exchange for an equivalent number of shares of Class A Common Stock or, at the Company’s option, cash, subject to the Company’s right to elect to effect, in lieu of such a redemption, a direct exchange between the Company and Hulu of cash or an equivalent number of shares of Class A Common Stock for such Newco Units and Class B Common Stock.
The Closing is subject to certain closing conditions specified in the Business Combination Agreement, including, among other things, obtaining requisite shareholder and regulatory approval. Hulu will be required to pay to the Company a termination fee in the amount of $130.0 million in the event of a termination of the Business Combination Agreement under certain specified circumstances, including if the Business Combination fails to close due to the failure to obtain requisite regulatory approvals on the terms and conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. Conversely, the Company will be required to pay Hulu a termination fee in amount of $50.0 million in the event of a termination of the Business Combination Agreement under certain specified circumstances, including if the Company implements a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement).
Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company and an affiliate of Disney entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) pursuant to which such affiliate committed to provide the Company, on January 5, 2026 and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, up to $145.0 million of indebtedness in the form of a senior unsecured term loan (the “Facility”), subject to customary conditions. The proceeds of the Facility will be used for general corporate purposes of the Company. The funding of the Facility under the Commitment Letter is not contingent on the occurrence of the Business Combination contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.
On January 6, 2025, concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company settled its antitrust litigation (the "Antitrust Settlement") against Disney, Fox, and WBD and their affiliates (collectively, the “Defendants”). In conjunction therewith, the Defendants made an aggregate cash payment to the Company of $220.0 million, which has been recorded within non-operating gain on settlement of litigation, net on the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Note 2 -Liquidity, Going Concern and Management Plans
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $327.8 million, a working capital deficit of $174.3 million and an accumulated deficit of $1,829.3 million as of March 31, 2025. The Company generated net income from continuing operations of $188.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Since inception, the Company’s operations have been financed primarily through the sale of equity and debt securities.
The Company believes that its current cash and cash equivalents provide it with the necessary liquidity to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date of issuance of these financial statements. In addition, the Company entered into the Commitment Letter described above providing the Company the ability to borrow up to $145.0 million under a senior unsecured term loan on January 5, 2026. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including our ability to successfully attract and retain subscribers and compete in a rapidly changing market with many competitors.
In addition to the foregoing, the Company cannot predict the potential impact on its development timelines, revenue levels and its liquidity due to macroeconomic factors, including inflationary cost pressures and potential recession indicators, which depend on factors beyond the Company's knowledge or control. Based upon the Company’s current assessment, it does not expect the impact of macroeconomic factors to materially impact the Company’s operations. However, the Company is continuing to assess the impact that the macroeconomic factors may have on its operations, financial condition and liquidity.
Note 3 -Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, its non-wholly owned subsidiaries where the Company has a controlling interest and certain variable interest entities ("VIE"). Generally accepted accounting principles require that if an entity is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the entity should consolidate the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the VIE in its consolidated financial statements. The primary beneficiary is the party that has both of the following: (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE, and (ii) the obligation to absorb the losses or rights to receive the benefits of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, the Company has consolidated VIEs in which it considers itself to be the primary beneficiary, with the equity interests of the unaffiliated investors presented as non-controlling interests in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
At December 31, 2024, total assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIEs were $5.1 million and $43.4 thousand, respectively, and are reflected in the Company's consolidated balance sheet.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of such interim results. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts provided in these notes pertain to continuing operations only (see Note 4 for information on discontinued operations).
The results for the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited financial statements; however, it does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 3, 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Those estimates and assumptions include useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, accruals for contingent liabilities, equity instruments issued in share-based payment arrangements, and accounting for income taxes, including the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
Segment and Reporting Unit Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is determined to be the CODM. The CODM reviews financial information and makes resource allocation decisions at the consolidated group level. The Company hasone operating segment as of March 31, 2025, the streaming business.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with remaining maturities at the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents, including balances held in the Company’s money market accounts. Restricted cash primarily represents cash on deposit with financial institutions in support of a letter of credit outstanding in favor of the Company’s landlord for office space. The restricted cash balance has been excluded from the cash balance and is classified as restricted cash on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same on the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows (in thousands):
| March 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Cash and cash equivalents | $321,617 | $161,435 |
| Restricted cash | 6,140 | 6,137 |
| Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $327,757 | $167,572 |
Certain Risks and Concentrations
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of demand deposits and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash deposits with financial institutions that at times exceed applicable insurance limits.
The majority of the Company’s software and computer systems utilize data processing, storage capabilities and other services provided by Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services, which cannot be easily switched to another cloud service provider. As such, any disruption of the Company’s interference with Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services could adversely impact the Company’s operations and business.
Significant Accounting Policies
For a detailed discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company’s Annual Report.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Net income (loss) per basic share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Net income (loss) per diluted share includes the weighted-average effect of dilutive restricted share units, performance share units and stock options (collectively, “Dilutive Awards”) on the weighted-average common shares outstanding.
The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except shares and per share data):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequences of the change to its financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s financial statements properly reflect the change.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, requires incremental disclosures within the income tax disclosures that increase the transparency and usefulness of income tax disclosures.

| Effective tax rate | 2.41% | 0.20% |
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $4.6 million which included a discrete tax expense of $5.3 million related to the Antitrust Settlement and stock-based compensation expense. The Antitrust Settlement was treated as an infrequent and unusual item and the tax impact reported discretely during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The effective tax rate was 2.41% on pre-tax income of $193.1 million. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. Statutory rate of 21% as a result of discrete item related to the Antitrust Settlement and changes in the Company's valuation allowance.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $0.1 million. The effective tax rate was 0.20% on pre-tax loss of $56.2 million. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. Statutory rate of 21% as a result of changes in the Company's valuation allowance
The Company regularly evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, loss carrybacks and tax-planning strategies. Generally, more weight is given to objectively verifiable evidence, such as the cumulative losses in recent years which is a significant piece of negative evidence to overcome. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, there have been no changes in the Company’s valuation allowance assessment from December 31, 2024. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on all its U.S., French, and Spanish deferred tax assets as the Company concluded that such deferred tax assets are not realizable on a more-likely-than-not basis.

2026 Convertible Notes
On February 2, 2021, the Company issued $402.5 million of convertible notes (“2026 Convertible Notes”).

Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of thethree-year service period as if the Company paid cash for the services.

Contingencies
The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings and claims that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, including relating to business practices and patent infringement. Litigation can be expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover, the results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict and the Company’s view of these matters may change in the future as the litigation and events related thereto unfold. When the Company determines that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability is recorded and disclosed if the amount is material to the financial statements taken as a whole. When a material loss contingency is only reasonably possible, the Company does not record a liability, but instead discloses the nature and the amount of the claim, and an estimate of the loss or range of loss, if such an estimate can reasonably be made. Legal expenses associated with any contingency are expensed as incurred.
The Company is engaged in discussions with certain third parties regarding patent licensing matters. The Company is not able to reasonably estimate whether it will be able to reach an agreement with these parties or the amount of potential licensing fees, if any, it may agree to pay in connection with these discussions, but it is possible that any such amount could be material.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is, and may in the future be, involved in various legal proceedings arising from the normal course of business activities. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, currently, the Company believes that the likelihood of any material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows or our financial position for any such litigation or claims is remote. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of the costs to defend lawsuits, diversion of management resources and other factors.
DISH Technologies, LLC, et al. v. fuboTV Media Inc., No. 1:23-cv-00986 (D. Del.)
On September 6, 2023, DISH Technologies L.L.C. and Sling TV L.L.C. (collectively, “DISH”) filed a complaint in the District of Delaware alleging that fuboTV Media Inc. (“fuboTV Media”) infringes eight of DISH's patents by streaming video through a fuboTV Media application and seeking damages and injunctive relief.
On December 14, 2023, following a series of stipulated extensions, fuboTV Media filed a motion to dismiss the complaint asserting that DISH’s patents are invalid. A hearing was held on March 25, 2024.
On May 7, 2024, DISH filed a motion for leave to file a First Amended Complaint to assert more claims. The district court granted this motion on May 21, 2024, and denied-as-moot fuboTV Media’s motion to dismiss. fuboTV Media also filed petitions forinter partes review on all the asserted patents, five of which relate to patents for which the United States Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) instituted proceedings in April 2024, and issued its final written decisions holding the majority of the challenged claims unpatentable in April 2025. The PTAB also instituted proceedings on the remaining three patents, and those are expected to be complete by November 21, 2025.
After filing itsinter partes review ("IPR") petitions, fuboTV Media filed a motion to stay the district court case pending resolution of those reviews. The district court granted that motion on August 13, 2024, staying the case until two weeks after the PTAB issues final written decisions on the five then-instituted patents and any appeals therefrom, and ordered that the stay would remain in place for the duration of any instituted IPRs and appeals therefrom on the remaining three patents. On December 5, 2024, the parties informed the Court that the PTAB instituted review for the remaining three patents. Currently, the case is fully stayed pending the instituted IPRs.
At this time, the Company cannot predict the outcome, or provide a reasonable estimate or range of estimates of the possible outcome or loss, if any, with respect to this matter. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses and intends to defend itself vigorously in this matter.

The Burdette litigation was subsequently voluntarily dismissed and refiled in state court as Burdette v. fuboTV, Inc., No. 2024LA001460 (Cir. Ct. DuPage County). The Company has reached an agreement to resolve these matters on a class basis, subject to approval by the court. The Beasley plaintiff filed a notice of voluntary dismissal on April 29, 2025.Additional allegations or litigation may arise against the Company in the future related to the VPPA and other privacy and consumer protection laws.
