Current report

The year-over-year decrease in ARPMAU in Latin America was mainly driven by the negative impact of additional player bonusing as a result of the value-added tax imposed on customer deposits in Colombia, which became effective during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and unfavorable foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

With respect to online poker, player liquidity, or the number or volume of players with an operator, is critical to the success of the game, with a greater number of players supporting a wider range and greater volume of games and larger tournaments, thereby increasing the quality of the offering to the consumer. Our online poker offerings include a comprehensive suite of game formats, including cash games, sit & go tournaments, and multi-table tournaments, catering to players of all skill levels. Players play against each other in either ring games (i.e., games for cash on a hand-by-hand basis) or in tournaments (i.e., players play against each other for tournament chips with prize money distributed to the last remaining competitors) or variations thereof.

Current report

Online casino revenue (other than from online poker) is generated based on total customer bets less amounts paid to customers for winning bets, less incentives awarded to customers, plus or minus the change in the progressive jackpot reserve. Online casino revenue from online poker is recognized as rake (i.e., percentage of a game’s wagers earned by the Company for satisfying the performance obligation) less any value given back to players, which could be in the form of cash, tournament tickets or other form of bonuses.

Revenue. Revenue increased by $62.2 million, or 37%, to $232.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $169.9 million for the same period in 2023. The increase was mainly due to and directly correlated with our continued growth across existing markets and expansion into the new market of Delaware, which launched after September 30, 2023. The increase reflects higher period-over-period online casino and sports betting revenue of $64.9 million. This was partly offset by a decrease in retail sports betting revenue of $2.7 million, which was attributable to the Company’s exit from the Connecticut market.

Previous report

Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can choose not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable. As of the date of this Report, we are an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. This may make it difficult or impossible to compare our financial results with the financial results of another public company that is either not an emerging growth company or is an emerging growth company that has chosen not to take advantage of the extended transition period exemptions for emerging growth companies because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Online casino offerings typically include the full suite of games available in bricks-and-mortar casinos, such as table games (i.e., blackjack and roulette) and slot machines. For these offerings, similar to bricks-and-mortar casinos, we generate revenue through hold, or gross winnings, as customers play against the house. Like bricks-and-mortar casinos, there is volatility with online casino, but as the number of bets placed increases, the net revenue retained from bets placed becomes easier to predict. Our experience has been that online casino revenue is less volatile than sports betting revenue.

For these offerings (other than online poker), similar to bricks-and-mortar casinos, we generate revenue through hold, or gross winnings, as customers play against the house. For our poker game offerings, like land-based card rooms that are typically incorporated in land-based casinos, we are generally not exposed to the risks of game play or the outcome of the game as players are not playing against the house but are instead playing against each other on a peer-to-peer basis. We generate revenue through rake, or a small commission taken from the total wagers placed on the hand, which is generally subject to a cap, and through tournament entry fees.

Our online casino offering consists of a combination of licensed content from leading industry suppliers, customized third-party games and a small number of proprietary games that were developed in-house or at our direction exclusively for us. Third-party content is usually subject to standard revenue-sharing agreements specific to each supplier, where the supplier generally receives a percentage of the net gaming revenue generated from its casino games played on our platform. In exchange, we receive a limited license to offer the games on our platform to customers in permitted jurisdictions. We generally pay much lower fees on revenue generated through our proprietary casino games such as our multi-bet blackjack (with side bets: 21+3, Lucky Ladies, Lucky Lucky) and single-deck blackjack, which primarily relate to hosting/remote gaming server fees and certain intellectual property license fees.

Online sports betting involves a user placing a bet on the outcome of a sporting event, a sports-related activity or a series of the same, with the chance to win a pre-determined amount, often referred to as fixed odds. Online sports betting revenue is generated by setting odds such that there is a built-in theoretical margin in each sports bet offered to customers. While sporting event outcomes may result in revenue volatility, we believe that we can achieve a positive long-term betting win margin. In addition to traditional fixed-odds betting, we also offer other fixed-odd sports betting products including in-game betting and multi-sport and same-game parlay betting. We have also incorporated live streaming of certain sporting events into our online sports betting offering.

Costs of Revenue. Costs of revenue consist primarily of (i) revenue share and market access fees, (ii) platform and content fees, (iii) gaming taxes, (iv) payment processing fees and chargebacks and (v) salaries, bonuses, benefits and share-based compensation for dedicated personnel. Other than salaries, bonuses, benefits and share-based compensation, these costs are primarily variable in nature and should typically correlate with the change in revenue. Revenue share and market access fees consist primarily of amounts paid to local partners that hold the applicable gaming license, providing us the ability to offer our real-money online offerings in the respective jurisdictions. Our platform and content fees are primarily driven by costs associated with third-party casino content, data and streaming, sports betting trading services and certain elements of our platform technology, such as geolocation and know-your-customer. Gaming taxes relate to state taxes that are determined on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, or federal excise taxes that are determined based on a percentage of the total online sports and retail sports bets placed. We incur payment processing costs on customer deposits, withdrawals and occasionally chargebacks (i.e., when a payment processor contractually disallows customer deposits in the normal course of business).

Our results of operations may, and generally do, fluctuate due to seasonal trends and other factors such as level of customer engagement, online casino and sports betting results and other factors that are outside of our control or that we cannot reasonably predict. Our quarterly financial performance depends on our ability to attract and retain customers. Customer engagement in our online offerings may vary due to, among other things, customer satisfaction with our platform, the number, timing and type of sporting events, the length of professional sports seasons, our offerings and marketing efforts and those of our competitors (including those not just in the online gaming industry but also in the entertainment industry more broadly), weather conditions, public sentiment, an economic downturn or other economic factors such as inflation, economic uncertainty or macroeconomic conditions. As customer engagement varies, so may our quarterly financial performance.

Our quarterly financial results may also be impacted by the number and amount of betting losses and jackpot payouts we experience. Although our losses are limited per wager to a maximum payout, when looking at bets across a period of time, these losses can be significant. We offer progressive jackpot games in certain of our online casino offerings. Each time a customer plays a progressive jackpot game, we contribute a portion of the amount bet to the jackpot for that game or group of games. When a progressive jackpot is won, it is paid out and reset to a predetermined base amount. Winning the jackpot is determined by a random mechanism; we cannot foresee when a jackpot will be won, and we do not insure against jackpot payouts. Paying the progressive jackpot decreases our cash position.

Our online sports betting and retail sports betting operations experience seasonality based on the relative popularity and frequency of certain sporting events. Although sporting events occur throughout the year, our online sports betting customers are most active during the NFL, NBA, and college football and basketball seasons. With respect to our online sports betting and retail sports betting operations, customer activity tends to increase, and we may experience increased volatility, in connection with major sporting events such as the NFL super bowl, the NBA finals and NCAA basketball March Madness. In addition, sports betting activity is impacted by the occurrence of periodic events (e.g., COPA America, UEFA, Olympics).

From a legislative perspective, we continue to see momentum to legalize and regulate online sports betting in new jurisdictions in the Americas. As expected, many of these new jurisdictions are first trying to legalize and regulate online sports betting before considering whether to legalize and regulate online casino. However, given the tax generation success of online casino in markets where it has been legalized, we also continue to see momentum for online casino in several jurisdictions in the Americas that are looking for additional revenue sources to fund governmental budgets. Additionally, we have seen governmental officials or legislative or regulatory bodies in certain jurisdictions in which we operate consider, and in limited cases to date, approve, increases in gaming-related taxes or other types of taxes on companies operating in the gaming industry. While it is unclear at this time if this will continue, any proposed legislation or other similar actions to increase existing taxes on online sportsbook and/or casino could negatively impact our business, profitability and cash flows.

In connection with the Business Combination, we executed the TRA, which generally provides that the Special Limited Partner pay an amount equal to 85% of certain net tax benefits, if any, that the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Special Limited Partner, realize (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of the increases in tax basis and tax benefits related to the transactions contemplated under the Business Combination Agreement and the exchange of certain common units in RSILP retained by the Sellers for Class A Common Stock (or cash) and tax benefits related to entering into the TRA, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA. Although the actual timing and amount of any payments made under the TRA will vary, such payments may be significant. Any payments made under the TRA will generally reduce the amount of overall cash flow that might have otherwise been available to us and, to the extent that payments required under the TRA are unable to be made for any reason, the unpaid amounts generally will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid. To date, no material payments under the TRA have been made, and no material payments or accrued payments thereunder are expected in the near future as payments under the TRA are not owed until the tax benefits generated thereunder are more-likely-than-not to be realized.

We expect our existing cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from operations to be sufficient to fund our operating activities and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. It is possible that we may need additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other developments, including unanticipated regulatory developments, significant acquisitions, partnerships or marketing initiatives, expansions in new or existing markets, deteriorating macroeconomic conditions and competitive pressures. We expect our capital expenditures and working capital requirements to continue to increase in the immediate future to support our growth as we seek to expand our offerings across more of North America, Latin America and worldwide, which will require significant investment in our online gaming platform and our personnel, in particular in product development, engineering and operations roles. We also expect certain costs such as marketing, market access and license fees to increase as we continue to pursue expansion opportunities in new and existing jurisdictions. In particular, we are party to several non-cancelable contracts with vendors and licensors for marketing and other strategic partnerships, pursuant to which we are obligated to make future minimum payments under the non-cancelable terms of these contracts. To the extent that our current resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may need to seek additional equity or debt financing. If the needed financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than we expect, we may be forced to decrease our level of investment in new product, service or market launches and related marketing initiatives or to scale back our existing operations, which could have an adverse impact on our business and financial prospects.

Previous wording

Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $80.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $6.8 million used in operating activities during the same period in 2023. The increased provision of cash reflects a higher period-over-period net income totaling $55.3 million, increased non-cash expenses of $4.7 million and an increase of $27.2 million due to the change in working capital. The increase in non-cash expenses was driven primarily by additional share-based compensation expense totaling $4.0 million, depreciation and amortization totaling $1.0 million, deferred income taxes of $0.2 million, and noncash lease expense of $0.2 million, which was partially offset by fewer write-offs of long-lived assets of $0.7 million.

Current wording

Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased by $2.2 million to $28.7 million, as compared to $30.9 million during the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily brought by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $18.8 million, which was partially offset by higher period-over-period net income totaling $13.4 million and increased non-cash expenses of $3.6 million. The increase in non-cash expenses was driven primarily by additional depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation expense totaling $2.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively which was partially offset by lower deferred income tax benefit of $0.8 million,

Previous wording

Investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased by $0.2 million to $26.2 million, as compared to $26.0 million during the same period in 2023. The increase reflects higher short-term investment of $1.9 million, internally developed software costs totaling $1.2 million, and acquisition of other intangibles totaling $1.1 million. This was partially offset by lower period-over-period cash paid for acquisition of gaming licenses totaling $3.2 million, investment in equity totaling $0.5 million, and purchases of property and equipment totaling $0.3 million.

Current wording

Investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased by $0.1 million to $7.5 million, as compared to $7.4 million during the same period in 2024. The increase reflects higher acquisition of internally developed software costs totaling $0.5 million and acquisition of developed technology totaling $0.2 million. This was partially offset by lower period-over-period cash paid for acquisition of gaming licenses totaling $0.4 million, purchases of property and equipment totaling $0.1 million and short-term investment totaling $0.1 million.
