Current report
The closing of the Business Combination constituted a fundamental change under the indenture governing the 2029 Convertible Notes, triggering the Company’s delivery of a notice to holders of 2029 Convertible Notes regarding their fundamental change repurchase right (the “Tender Offer”). The Tender Offer expired on January 6, 2026, at which time none of the outstanding 2029 Convertible Notes were surrendered for repurchase pursuant to the Tender Offer.

Previous report
Our products and services related to sports wagering subjected our business to a variety of related gaming laws, many of which are unsettled and still developing, and which could subject us to claims or otherwise harm our business. The violation of any such laws, any adverse change in any such laws or their interpretation, or the regulatory climate applicable to these products and services, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Previous report
While Fubo Gaming dissolved and ceased operation of Fubo Sportsbook in October 2022, Fubo Gaming had launched the Fubo Sportsbook app in Iowa and Arizona during the fourth quarter of 2021, and in New Jersey during the third quarter of 2022. Expansion of our business into sports wagering, including through third-party partnerships, has generally subjected us to the laws and regulations of the jurisdictions in which we conducted our business or in some circumstances, of those jurisdictions in which our services were offered or were available, as well as the general laws and regulations that apply to all e-commerce businesses, such as those related to the privacy and security of personal information, tax and consumer protection and, potentially, any additional laws and regulations that may impact our business partners. These laws and regulations vary from one jurisdiction to another. We may to some extent again become subject to these laws and regulations to the extent we were to engage in gaming operations or otherwise partner with a third party subject to these laws and regulations in the future.
Previous report
In connection with the foregoing, future legislative and regulatory action, and court decisions or other governmental action, may have a material adverse impact on our operations and financial results. Governmental authorities could view us as having violated applicable laws, despite efforts to obtain all applicable licenses or approvals and otherwise comply with such laws. There is also a risk that civil and criminal proceedings, including class actions brought by or on behalf of prosecutors or public entities or incumbent monopoly providers, or private individuals, could be initiated against us, Internet service providers, credit card and other payment processors, advertisers and others involved in the sports wagering industry who partnered with, serviced or worked with or for us. Such potential proceedings could involve substantial litigation expense, penalties, fines, seizure of assets, injunctions or other restrictions being imposed upon us or our licensees or other business partners, while diverting the attention of key executives. Such proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects, as well as impact our reputation.
Previous report
As permitted by the 2026 Notes Indenture, on the Closing Date of the Business Combination we irrevocably elected that all future conversions of the 2026 Convertible Notes on and after November 15, 2025 will be settled pursuant to cash settlement Cash Settlement Election. As a result of the Cash Settlement Election, on and after November 15, 2025, holders of 2026 Convertible Notes no longer have the right to convert any principal amount of 2026 Convertible Notes into Prior Fubo Common Stock or Class A Common Stock However, in the event the conditional conversion feature of any or all of the 2026 Convertible Notes is triggered, holders of the 2026 Convertible Notes will be entitled to convert their 2026 Convertible Notes prior to November 15, 2025 at their option. If one or more holders elect to convert 2026 Convertible Notes, unless we elect to satisfy our conversion obligation by delivering solely shares of our Class A Common Stock (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share), we would be required to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation in cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity.

The accounting method for convertible debt securities that may be settled in cash, such as the 2026 Convertible Notes, could have a material effect on our reported financial results.
Previous report
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") published an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, which amends these accounting standards by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible instruments and limiting instances of separate accounting for the debt and equity or a derivative component of the convertible debt instruments. ASU 2020-06 no longer allows the use of the treasury stock method for convertible instruments and instead requires application of the “if-converted” method. Under that method, diluted earnings per share will generally be calculated assuming that all the 2026 Convertible Notes were converted solely into shares of common stock at the beginning of the reporting period, unless the result would be anti-dilutive, which could adversely affect our diluted earnings per share. The Company adopted the ASU on January 1, 2022.

Previous wording
We have made, and intend in the future to make, significant investments to support planned business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new features or enhance our existing platform, products and services, increase marketing efforts to acquire and retain subscribers, integrate the Hulu Live business, expand into additional markets around the world, improve our operating infrastructure or merge with or acquire complementary businesses, personnel and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, including pursuant to our shelf registration statements on Form S-3, our then existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our Class A Common Stock. Any debt financing we secure, including the senior unsecured term loan available to us on January 5, 2026 and described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report (the “Facility”), could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. If we were to violate the restrictive covenants contained in the indenture governing our 2029 Convertible Notes (the “2029 Notes Indenture”) or in any future document governing our indebtedness, we could incur penalties, increased expenses and an acceleration of the payment terms of our outstanding debt, which could in turn harm our business. In addition, now that we have completed the Business Combination, we are required to offer to repurchase any of our outstanding 3.25% senior convertible notes due 2026 (the “2026 Convertible Notes”) and convertible senior secured notes due 2029 (the “2029 Convertible Notes”) at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. We may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to make repurchases of 2026 Convertible Notes or 2029 Convertible Notes surrendered therefor.

Seasonal variations in subscriber and marketing behavior significantly affect our business. We have previously experienced, and expect to continue to experience, effects of seasonal trends in subscriber behavior due to the seasonal nature of sports. We generate significantly higher levels of revenue and subscriber additions in the third and fourth quarters of the year, driven primarily by sports leagues, especially the National Football League and college football. Our operating results may also be affected by the scheduling of major sporting events that do not occur annually, such as the World Cup or Olympic Games, or the cancellation or postponement of sporting events. We also typically experience higher advertising sales during the fourth quarter of each calendar year due to greater advertiser demand during the holiday season, but, on the other hand, also typically incur greater marketing expenses as we attempt to attract new subscribers to our platform. In addition, expenditures by advertisers tend to be cyclical and are often discretionary in nature, reflecting overall economic conditions, the economic prospects of specific advertisers or industries, budgeting constraints and buying patterns, and a variety of other factors, many of which are outside our control.

As of September 30, 2025, we had $330.6 million of outstanding indebtedness on a consolidated basis which included $144.8 million of 2026 Convertible Notes, $177.5 million of 2029 Convertible Notes, and other notes outstanding with an aggregate principal of approximately $8.3 million. Additionally, the terms of the 2029 Notes Indenture allow for interest payments on the 2029 Convertible Notes to be paid in kind. If we choose to pay interest on the 2029 Convertible Notes in kind, the aggregate principal amount of 2029 Convertible Notes outstanding will increase.

In January 2026, we and an affiliate of Disney entered into a promissory note (the "Disney Note") pursuant to which such affiliate provided us with $145.0 million of indebtedness in the form of a senior unsecured term loan. Additionally, the terms of the 2029 Notes Indenture allow for interest payments on the 2029 Convertible Notes to be paid in kind. If we choose to pay interest on the 2029 Convertible Notes in kind, the aggregate principal amount of 2029 Convertible Notes outstanding will increase.

•if we fail to make required debt payments or to comply with other covenants in our debt agreements, we would be in default under the terms of these agreements, which could permit our creditors to accelerate repayment of the debt and could cause cross-defaults under other debt agreements. For example, our failure to repay or refinance our 2026 Convertible Notes upon or prior to maturity may trigger an event of default under our 2029 Convertible Notes.

We may need or desire to repay, refinance, restructure or defease our existing indebtedness, including prior to its maturity, in one or more transactions, which may involve the payment of cash or the issuance of additional debt or equity securities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Our ability to refinance existing or future indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. In addition, the terms of the 2029 Notes Indenture and the Exchange Agreement restrict our ability to incur certain indebtedness and issue certain equity securities. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our current or future debt agreements, including the Facility.

The payment obligation under the Tax Receivables Agreement is an obligation of the Company and not of Newco. Any payments made by us to Hulu under the Tax Receivables Agreement will not be available for reinvestment in our business and will generally reduce the amount of overall cash flow that might have otherwise been available to us. To the extent that we are unable to make timely payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement for any reason, such payments will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid by us.

We enter into agreements with our content providers, which have varying terms and conditions, including expiration dates. Upon expiration of these agreements, we are required to re-negotiate and renew them in order to continue providing content from these providers on Fubo's streaming platform or the HL DMVPD Service. We have in the past been unable, and in the future may not be able, to reach a satisfactory agreement with certain content providers before our existing agreements have expired. If we are unable to renew such agreements on a timely basis on mutually agreeable terms, we may be required to temporarily or permanently remove certain channels from Fubo's streaming platform or the HL DMVPD Service. The loss of such channels from Fubo's streaming platform or the HL DMVPD Service for any period of time may harm our business, including as a result of customer confusion and/or dissatisfaction regarding the change in programming available on our platform or lower wholesale fees received from affiliates of Disney. From time to time, we experience negative subscriber impact attributable to the loss of specific content or distribution rights. If we fail to maintain our relationships with the content providers on terms favorable to us, or at all, or if these content providers face problems in delivering their content across our platform, we may lose channel partners or subscribers and our business may be harmed.

Newco, HL and Fubo OpCo have entered into certain commercial agreements with Hulu, including a commercial services agreement and a brand license agreement. Pursuant to such agreements, Hulu has agreed to provide Newco, HL, and Fubo OpCo, as the case may be, with certain services following the closing of the Business Combination. We negotiated these arrangements with Hulu in anticipation of HL, Fubo OpCo and Newco becoming subsidiaries of Hulu. Although Hulu is contractually obligated to provide HL, Fubo OpCo and Newco with services during the term of these agreements, it is not certain that these services will be sustained at the same level after the expiration of such agreements, or that Newco, HL and Fubo OpCo, as the case may be, will be able to replace these services in a timely manner or on comparable terms.

Upon the closing of the Business Combination, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a commercial services agreement with Hulu. Under this agreement, Hulu is responsible for, among other things: (i) distributing the HL DMVPD Service via the Hulu platform that is currently branded as “Hulu” (and any Disney-branded successor or replacement platform) on a wholesale basis; (ii) selling and administering subscriptions to the HL DMVPD Service; (iii) performing all marketing for the HL DMVPD Service (in consultation with us); and (iv) selling advertising associated with the HL DMVPD Service (as well as selling advertising in the Fubo applications, websites and other platforms, and Fubo sponsorships, product integrations, branded content and similar advertising on our behalf). As a result, the Hulu Live business is reliant on Hulu for certain key operational aspects of its business and, if Hulu does not perform its obligations under the commercial services agreement, our business could be adversely affected. If Hulu and its affiliates prioritize other platforms or content over the HL DMVPD Service, do not market or promote the HL DMVPD Service appropriately, do not set pricing that maximizes the value of the Hulu Live Business, experiences service disruptions, or are unsuccessful in advertising strategies or sales, our revenues could be negatively impacted. Hulu and/or its affiliates have been, and may in the future be, subject to legal proceedings brought by third parties claiming that certain aspects of Hulu’s operations that support the Hulu Live business infringe on those third parties’ patents or other intellectual property rights. Although the commercial services agreement obligates Hulu to maintain a standard of distribution and customer experience for the HL DMVPD Service that is generally consistent with historical practices, the impact of implementing any workarounds, modifications or alternative technologies in response to such legal proceedings may not be compliant with such standard and could adversely affect the Hulu Live business.

The commercial services agreement will have an initial term of five years, renewable for an additional five-year term by mutual agreement of the parties thereto. During the term, HL is not permitted to otherwise distribute the HL DMVPD Service, nor any programming, outside of the HL DMVPD Service. As a result, we may be unable to replace the services or functions provided by Hulu during the term of the agreement. There is also uncertainty regarding how the expiration of the commercial services agreement would impact our subscribers and data, particularly if Newco were to cease being a subsidiary of Hulu. If we are unable to obtain comparable terms from Hulu or a third party after the expiration of the commercial services agreement, the distribution, subscriber growth, marketing efficiency, brand positioning and advertising monetization of the Hulu Live business could be materially adversely affected.

As a producer and distributor of content, we face potential liability for negligence, copyright and trademark infringement, or other claims based on the nature and content of materials that we acquire, produce, license and/or distribute. We also may face potential liability for content used in promoting our service, including marketing materials. We are devoting more resources toward the development, production, marketing and distribution of original programming, including Fubo Sports Network. We believe that original and exclusive programming can help differentiate our service from other offerings, enhance our brand and otherwise attract and retain subscribers. To the extent our programming does not meet our expectations, in particular, in terms of costs, viewing and popularity, our business, including our brand and results of operations may be adversely impacted. As we have expanded our original programming, we have become responsible for production costs and other expenses, such as ongoing guild payments. We also take on risks associated with production, such as completion and key talent risk. Further, negotiations or renewals related to entertainment industry collective bargaining agreements could negatively impact timing and costs associated with our productions. We contract with third parties related to the development, production, marketing and distribution of our original programming. We may face potential liability or may suffer significant losses in connection with these arrangements, including but not limited to if such third parties violate applicable law, become insolvent or engage in fraudulent behavior. To the extent we create and sell physical or digital merchandise relating to our programming, and/or license such rights to third parties, we could become subject to product liability, intellectual property or other claims related to such merchandise. We may decide to remove content from our service, including from the HL DMVPD Service, not to place licensed or produced content on our service or discontinue or alter production of original content if we believe such content might not be well-received by our current or potential subscribers, or could be damaging to our brand or business.

The Hulu Live business has historically existed and functioned as part of the consolidated businesses of Hulu and Disney. For purposes of presenting the historical performance of the Hulu Live business in our financial statements for periods prior to the Business Combination, we will utilize financial information for the Hulu Live business as it was historically managed and operated by Hulu and Disney. Financial information for the Hulu Live business prior to the Business Combination may not be indicative of the combined results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of the Hulu Live business in the future (as integrated with our business as part of Newco) or if it had operated independently of Hulu and Disney historically. Actual costs that would have been incurred if the Hulu Live business had operated as a standalone independent entity would depend on multiple factors, including organizational structure and strategic decisions made in various areas, including marketing, technology, finance, and other general and administrative costs, that could differ from the expense allocations presented. Accordingly, we are unable to quantify the actual expenses that the Hulu Live business would have actually incurred during the historical periods on a standalone basis.

We regularly review key metrics related to the operation of our business, including, but not limited to, average revenue per user, and number of subscribers, to evaluate growth trends, measure our performance, and make strategic decisions. These metrics are calculated using internal company data and have not been validated by an independent third party. While these numbers are based on what we believe to be reasonable estimates of our subscriber base for the applicable period of measurement, there are inherent challenges in measuring how our platform is used across large populations.

Companies such as DirecTV, Comcast, Cox and Altice, along with virtual multichannel video programming distributors, such as YouTube TV, DirecTV Stream, Philo and Sling TV, offer TV streaming products that compete with our platform. In many cases, these competitors have the financial resources to subsidize the cost of their streaming services in order to promote their other products and services making it harder for us to acquire new subscribers and increase hours streamed. Similarly, some service operators, such as Comcast and Altice, offer TV streaming applications as part of their cable service plans and can leverage their existing consumer bases, installation networks, broadband delivery networks and name recognition to gain traction in the TV streaming market. Some of these companies also promote their brands through traditional forms of advertising, such as TV commercials, as well as Internet advertising or website product placement, and have greater resources than us to devote to such efforts.

We expect competition in TV streaming from the large technology companies and service operators described above, as well as new and growing companies, to increase in the future. This increased competition could result in pricing pressure, lower revenue or the failure of our platform to gain or maintain broad market acceptance. To remain competitive, we need to continuously invest in product development and marketing. We may not have sufficient resources to make additional investments needed to maintain our competitive position. In addition, many of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than us, which provide them with advantages in developing, marketing or servicing new products and offerings. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to market demand, devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sales of their products or the distribution of their content, secure more favorable rates for their content, and influence market acceptance of their products better than we can. These competitors may also be able to adapt more quickly to new or emerging technologies or standards and may be able to deliver products and services at a lower cost. New entrants may enter the TV streaming market with unique service offerings or approaches to providing video. In addition, our competitors may enter into business combinations or alliances that strengthen their competitive positions. Even if the Business Combination is consummated, we may not be able to sustain or strengthen our competitive position. Increased competition could reduce our market share, revenue and operating margins, increase our operating costs, harm our competitive position and otherwise harm our business.
Current wording
We expect competition in TV streaming from the large technology companies and service operators described above, as well as new and growing companies, to increase in the future. This increased competition could result in pricing pressure, lower revenue or the failure of our platform to gain or maintain broad market acceptance. To remain competitive, we need to continuously invest in product development and marketing. We may not have sufficient resources to make additional investments needed to maintain our competitive position. In addition, many of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than us, which provide them with advantages in developing, marketing or servicing new products and offerings.

A key source of revenue for the Company is from advertising sales. Pursuant to the commercial services agreement entered into in connection with the Business Combination, certain affiliates of Disney will sell ads on behalf of the Company in exchange for a portion of ad sale revenue. As a result, a portion of our business model depends on the marketing and sale of advertising inventory across our services pursuant to such agreement. We grow ad inventory by adding and retaining content providers on our platform with ad-supported channels that we can monetize. Additionally, ad inventory may be limited by restrictive ad requirements imposed by content providers. If there are delays or shortfalls in the sale of advertising on our platforms, or if a sufficient supply of quality video advertising inventory cannot be maintained at reasonable costs to keep up with demand, our advertising revenue and business may be adversely affected. In addition, advertising spend is affected by broader macroeconomic conditions, and therefore economic downturns and recessionary fears may also negatively impact our advertising revenue. The advertising industry is highly competitive, with numerous internet streaming platforms and services, as well as traditional media, such as radio, broadcast, cable and satellite TV and satellite and internet radio. We may not be successful in maintaining or improving our fill-rates or CPMs.

We historically have had a reputation as primarily a live sports streaming service. We are making efforts to expand our content offerings outside live sports streaming, including through the Business Combination, and currently offer a wide selection of news and entertainment content through the Fubo platform and the HL DMVPD Service. However, we may not be successful at expanding our content to areas outside our current content offering, or maintaining content from our current content offering, and even if we are able to expand into other content areas and sustain such expansion, we may not be successful in overcoming our reputation as primarily a live sports streaming service.

Our business utilizes internally developed and third party artificial intelligence ("AI") and machine learning technologies, including in connection with offering interactive functionality on our platform. For example, in December 2021, we completed the acquisition of Edisn LLC (f/k/a Edisn Inc.) (“Edisn”), an AI-powered computer vision platform with patent-pending video recognition technologies based in Bangalore, India. We are, and plan in the future, to evaluate the further investment in and/or use artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, including potential utilization by our business. As with many technological innovations, artificial intelligence presents risks and challenges that could affect our ability to effectively use such technologies, and therefore our business. If our AI tools are inadequately or incorrectly designed, improperly trained or used, or the data used to train or refine them is incomplete, inadequate or biased in some way or is data to which we or the providers of such AI technologies do not have sufficient rights, our use of AI may inadvertently reduce our efficiency or cause unintentional or unexpected outputs that are incorrect, do not match our business goals, do not comply with our policies or standards or adversely affect our financial condition, business and reputation.

From time to time, we acquire or invest in businesses, products or technologies, or partner with other companies, to expand our offerings and capabilities, subscriber base and business. The risks associated with such strategic transactions include: the difficulty of integrating solutions, operations, and personnel; inheriting liabilities and exposure to litigation; failure to realize anticipated benefits and expected synergies; and diversion of management’s time and attention, among other risks related to strategic transactions. We have evaluated, and expect in the future to evaluate, a wide array of potential strategic transactions. Any such transaction could be material to our financial condition and results of operations. Also, any anticipated benefits from a given transaction, including, but not limited to, the Business Combination, may never materialize. In addition, the process of integrating any businesses, products or technologies acquired by us may create unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures and we may have difficulties retaining key employees. Transactions in international markets, including Edisn and Molotov, involve additional risks, including those related to integration of operations across different cultures and languages, currency risks and the particular economic, political and regulatory risks associated with specific countries. We may not be successful in overcoming such risks, and such transactions may negatively impact our business. In addition, if we do not complete an announced transaction or integrate an acquired business successfully and in a timely manner, we may not realize the benefits of the transaction to the extent anticipated. Strategic transactions may contribute to fluctuations in our quarterly financial results. These fluctuations could arise from transaction-related costs and charges associated with eliminating redundant expenses or write-offs of impaired assets recorded in connection with acquisitions and investments and could negatively impact our financial results.

Third parties have previously asserted, and may in the future assert, that we have infringed, misappropriated, or otherwise violated their patent, trademark, copyright, or other intellectual property rights. Due to a large number of patents in the streaming field, it is not economically feasible to undertake efforts to try to predict whether any product or component will infringe the patent rights of others. Defending ourselves against intellectual property infringement claims, whether or not they have merit, could be costly and could result in the diversion of resources and management time and attention, even if we are ultimately successful in the defending the claim. If a claim is successfully asserted against us, in addition to being liable for damages and/or indemnification of customers or partners, our ability to use our current streaming technology and market our service could be restricted. We may also have to remove content from our service or marketing materials. As a result of a dispute, we may have to develop non-infringing technology, enter into royalty or licensing agreements, adjust our content, or marketing activities or take other actions to resolve the claims. Some of our competitors may be better able to sustain the costs of such litigation or proceedings because of their substantially greater financial resources. Uncertainties resulting from the initiation and continuation of patent litigation or other proceedings could impair our ability to compete in the marketplace. The occurrence of any of the foregoing events could harm our business. In addition, while the existence of our patent portfolio may deter some plaintiffs from asserting claims against us, from time to time we have faced, and expect in the future to face, allegations from “non-practicing entities.” Because these non-practicing entities have no relevant product revenue, and they exist primarily for the purpose of monetizing their patent portfolio through licensing and litigation, they may not be deterred by our own issued patents and pending patent applications in bringing intellectual property claims against us.

Holders of the 2029 Convertible Notes will have the right to require us to repurchase all or a portion of the 2029 Convertible Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change before the maturity date at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid cash interest, if any. In addition, upon conversion of the 2029 Convertible Notes, unless we elect to deliver solely shares of our Class A Common Stock to settle such conversion (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share), we will be required to make cash payments in respect of the notes being converted. Moreover, we will be required to repay the 2029 Convertible Notes in cash at their maturity unless earlier converted or repurchased. However, we may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to make repurchases of all or a portion of the 2029 Convertible Notes surrendered therefor or pay cash with respect to notes being converted or at their maturity. Now that we have completed the Business Combination as described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, we will be required to offer to repurchase any of our outstanding 2029 Convertible Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. We may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to make repurchases of 2029 Convertible Notes surrendered therefor.

A default under the 2029 Notes Indenture or the fundamental change itself could also lead to a default under agreements governing our existing or future indebtedness, including the 2026 notes indenture. Moreover, the occurrence of a fundamental change under the 2029 Notes Indenture could constitute an event of default under any such agreement.
