spk19: We assume no responsibility for updating forward-looking statements. For more information, please refer to the risks, uncertainties, and other factors discussed in our SEC filings. During the call, management will also discuss certain non-GAAP measures that we believe may be useful in evaluating DraftKings operating performance.

A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is available in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed today with the SEC and in our earnings presentation, which is available on our website at investors.draftkings.com. Hosting the call today, we have Jason Robbins, co-founder, chief executive officer, and chairman of DraftKings, who will share some opening remarks and an update on our business, and Jason Park, chief financial officer of DraftKings, will provide a review of our financials. We will then open up the line to questions. I will now turn the call over to Jason Robin.
spk06: Good morning, everyone. On today's call, I will cover six key messages. First, we generated $298 million of revenue in Q2 due to excellent engagement from our customers and no discernible adverse impact from the reopening of the economy. Second, we saw positive legislative momentum continue with several states authorizing mobile sports wagering this year. Third, We continue to make big strides on products and technology, including the migration to our in-house FedEngine. Fourth, we are laying the foundation for our media and content business. Fifth, we are launching an exciting new vertical in the non-fungible token industry under the brand of DraftKings Marketplace. And before turning it over to Jason Park, I will also provide an update on our ongoing responsible gaming initiative. We continue to deliver strong and healthy revenue growth in the second quarter of 2021. Revenue for the quarter increased 297% year-over-year to $298 million on a pro forma basis. Monthly unique players increased 281% to $1.1 million, and average revenue per monthly unique player increased 26% to $80. While year-over-year comparisons were obviously impacted by COVID, our results were very strong relative to our expectations. At this stage, we're not seeing any signs of the economy's reopening impacting demand for our mobile product offers. We continue to acquire customers efficiently with CAC at or below our target. And as a data-driven company, we will dial up or down our investments according to the numbers. ARPMUP is also outperforming our expectations, which may be an indication that player LTVs could be even better than we thought. As of now, we are not making any adjustments to our models or internal CAC targets. Engagement in the quarter was outstanding across all our products, particularly during the NBA and NHL playoffs and finals. major golf tournaments, Champions League, Copa America, and the Euro Cup. We're also very excited about the continued traction we are seeing in combat sports such as the UFC. To give a sense of the engagement we saw in the quarter, excluding new states, NBA playoff handle and paid actives increased 82% and 47% compared to the 2020 playoffs. To give a sense of engagement on a more normalized basis, Handel and paid actives for the NBA playoffs grew 293% and 119% in New Jersey compared to the NBA playoffs in Q2 of 2019. Also, excluding new states, Handel for the Masters increased 47% with paid actives up 35% compared to the 2020 Masters in November. Handel and paid actives for the Masters grew 241% and 78% in New Jersey compared to the Masters in Q2 of 2019. In fact, overall OSB handle in New Jersey grew 196%, and paid actives increased 111% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2019. iGaming gross revenue also continued to grow at an impressive rate in the quarter despite retail casinos reopening to full capacity in all the four states where we operate with iGaming. The overall New Jersey iGaming market grew 33% in Q2, which is even more impressive when considering that New Jersey iGaming has been available for almost eight years. More importantly, DraftKings iGaming gross revenue in New Jersey grew more than two and a half times the rate of the overall market in the second quarter, which is outstanding given the tailwinds we experienced in the same period last year due to COVID. Our business momentum has continued into Q3. On July 9th, we announced an expansion and extension of our existing exclusive daily fantasy sports and sports betting relationship with Major League Baseball. As an official sports betting partner of MLB, Our brand will be visible throughout digital odds plays and virtual signage within MLB games. The expanded relationship also includes rights to an innovative bet and watch streaming integration where fans with open and active MLB.com and DraftKings accounts will be able to watch a free live MLB game within the DraftKings app. July 10th was an all-time top 10 day for acquiring new mobile sports betting customers, even though July is traditionally our slowest acquisition month of the year. This critical day included the Wimbledon Women's Championships, Brazil versus Argentina in the Copa America finals, and the Poirier versus McGregor fight. On July 15th, we received a license from the Louisiana Gaming Control Board to launch our fantasy sports product and approve parishes in the state. We moved forward with the launch on July 16th. Arizona also recently legalized fantasy sports, and we are actively preparing to launch in the state, pending receipt of licensure and regulatory approval. And on July 21st, We reveal plans to launch DraftKings Marketplace, which I'll comment on in a few minutes.

spk23: Here's why my doctor said I should throw out my popcorn to protect my memory.
spk24: I'm Dr. Sam Walters, a brain health and memory specialist and former NASA scientist. If you've been struggling to remember important names, dates or even where those darn car keys are, listen closely. I've got the information you've been looking for. Right now, there are people at home saying everyone's brain slows down when they get older. This just sounds too good to be true. Well, I'm living proof. And so are thousands of my patients who have benefited from my expertise to boost their memory, sharpen their focus, and clear out the embarrassing brain fog that leads to occasional forgetfulness. And one thing I've told my patients is there are certain so-called healthy foods that are actually harming the brain. And one of them is popcorn. specifically microwave popcorn because hidden inside this American favorite is a little known ingredient called diacetyl. And it's added to bland food in order to make it taste not just delicious, but nearly irresistible. Unfortunately, that great taste comes at a high cost because diacetyl passes through the blood brain barrier and can form plaque on the brain. And this is often what causes occasional forgetfulness and that embarrassing brain fog that no one wants. Over the last 50 years, I've helped countless people enjoy stronger, happier, healthier brains, meaning they're more quick-witted, more independent, and are able to enjoy an overall higher quality of life. And that's why I've created a special presentation just for you that reveals the five foods you have to avoid if you want to steer clear of brain fog, occasional forgetfulness, and a slow, tired brain. I want you to watch this short video and promise me you'll toss those brain-impacting foods in the garbage immediately because there are probably at least two or three of these foods sitting in your kitchen right now. I'll also reveal the 10-second trick that my clients use every day to skyrocket their brain power and enjoy a steel trap memory. Tap the button below and I'll see you in a moment.
spk06: Looking ahead, due to the continued outperformance of our core business, we are raising our revenue guidance, which Jason Park will cover in more detail a little bit later on the call. Turning to legalization trends, we have seen continued momentum in both mobile sports betting and iGaming legislation. In 2021, 25 state legislatures have introduced legislation to legalize mobile sports betting. Five state legislatures have introduced legislation to expand their existing sports wagering frameworks, and two state legislatures have introduced legislation to legalize sports betting limited to retail locations. In addition, four states have introduced iGaming legislation, and three states have introduced online poker-only legislation. Six of the states where DraftKings has the potential opportunity to participate via a market access agreement or a direct license, Wyoming, Arizona, New York, Maryland, Louisiana, and Connecticut, have already authorized mobile sports wagering this year. These six states represent 13% of the U.S. population and brought the percentage of the population with legalized mobile sports betting to 39%. DraftKings is live with online sports betting in 12 states that collectively represent 25% of the U.S. population. Additionally, DraftKings is live with iGaming in four states, representing approximately 10% of the U.S. population. Connecticut is also authorized iGaming, which would add about 1% of the population. I want to provide a bit more color on Florida and New York. In Florida, we have teamed up with FanDuel and Florida Education Champions to collect approximately 900,000 verified signatures. If we are able to successfully collect those signatures, we will have a mobile sports betting question on the ballot in November 2022. It is our shared goal to have a safe, legal, regulated, and competitive market for online sports betting in the Sunshine State, and Floridians deserve a market-leading and technologically advanced product offerings. In New York, the RFA for mobile sports betting was issued in July and we are prepared to respond in a fulsome and timely manner. We look forward to the potential of offering mobile sports betting in New York. Turning to Canada, we continue to believe that the country represents a very meaningful opportunity and we have seen strong legislative progress this year. At the federal level, the bill to repeal the single game sports wagering prohibition has passed the legislature and received royal effect, so it is now law and parlays are no longer required. At the provincial level, Ontario has enacted a law that creates a regulatory framework for a competitive iGaming mobile sports wagering market. For context, Ontario represents about 40% of Canada's population. If Ontario were a U.S. state, it would be the fifth largest state by population. We're excited about this momentum, and we look forward to further progress in Ontario and Canada as a whole.
spk21: After saving with customized car insurance from Liberty Mutual, I customize everything. Like Marco's backpack.
spk06: Moving on to product and technology, I'm very pleased to announce another quarter of significant progress. As we have mentioned in the past, we believe that the long-term winners in this industry will have a relentless focus on bringing the best product experience to customers. For mobile sports betting, we have completed our back-end migration in 11 states and have just one state left pending final approval. Being vertically integrated will greatly enhance our ability to continuously drive differentiated product and customer experiences and offer markets unique to DraftKings. We are happy to announce that we have launched Same Game Parleys. Same Game Parleys are a sought-after feature from our customers that we are now able to offer due to our vertical integration. In addition, we are on track to bring other new features, including new in-game markets to our customers by the start of the NFL season. We signed a multi-year sports data supplier agreement with Genius Sports, which gives us access to Genius' full portfolio of global sports data and content, including official NFL data and content. The terms of this deal are consistent with our long-term gross margin expectations. For iGaming, we added DK Crafts to our mobile casino suite in New Jersey with Pennsylvania, Michigan, and West Virginia to follow pending approval. The game is a DraftKings exclusive and built in-house. Crafts is a challenging game to develop given the seemingly endless paths players can take, and our internal teams were able to deliver an authentic and truly differentiated craft experience. In addition, we have launched our jackpot technology, which is enabled by our prior acquisition of Blue Ribbon. Over the past quarter, we have taken additional meaningful steps to begin building out our media business. We firmly believe that DraftKings has an exciting opportunity to play in the media space, given our brand recognition and trusted relationship with millions of paying customers across our DFS, OSB, and iGaming verticals. We also have tremendous relationships across the industry with sports partners and media entities, as well as newly acquired assets like Visin and our distribution relationship with Metalark. When analyzing the media vertical, we see three critical factors that will lead to our success in both the short and long term. Media is a logical adjacent vertical to DFS, OSB, and iGaming, given the clear LTV to CAS benefits for our core business. Specifically, we have the potential to acquire DFS, OSB, and iGaming customers through our content assets such as Visin and distribution relationships such as Metalark. We believe we will also be able to improve retention of our existing DFS, OSB, and iGaming players as a result of our differentiated media content. Given our well-known brand, millions of paying customers, ownership of proprietary content in the form of gaming and DFS data, and the vSIM platform, we will have the opportunity to be a unique content provider in the sports and entertainment space. Media in of itself is a great business which has the potential to diversify our revenue streams through ad sales, content distribution deals, potentially even recurring subscription revenue. Suffice it to say, we are very excited about the future of our media and content business, and we will continue to update you on this topic in the coming quarters. We are continuing to explore exciting new growth sectors, some of which we can pursue organically, some inorganically. On July 21st, we revealed plans to launch DraftKings Marketplace, a digital collectibles ecosystem designed for mainstream accessibility. DraftKings Marketplace offers curated NFT drops for U.S. dollar purchase. and support secondary market transactions. Our first NFT drop will be in the near future, and instantaneously, millions of customers will have the ability to seamlessly buy and sell digital collectibles across sports, entertainment, and culture using their existing DraftKings account. This first drop is enabled by our exclusive sports content distribution relationship with Autograph, who has established exclusive relationships with prominent iconic athletes such as Tom Brady, Wayne Gretzky, Tony Hawk, Derek Jeter, Naomi Osaka, Tiger Woods, and more. We are pursuing this vertical because it fits the criteria we have outlined to you in the past, notably that NFTs offer a logical cross-bill opportunity with our existing customers. As a result, this vertical can enhance customer stickiness in LTV as well as the potential for new customer acquisition through affiliation with these iconic athletes' fan bases. It also has very attractive economics given the large potential revenue opportunity based on transaction fees, modest initial investment, and excellent EBITDA margins. We also continue to explore other vectors, including deepening and strengthening our existing product offerings and geographic expansion outside of the U.S. I also want to provide some recent updates on one of our highest ESG priorities, Responsible Gaming. DraftKings' Responsible Gaming mission is to leverage technology, employee training, and evidence-based research to protect consumers. In the second quarter, we announced three ways we are advancing this critical mission. we made a financial commitment to the International Center for Responsible Gaming's fund to support research on sports wagering. As a result of DraftKings' contribution, the ICRG was able to proceed with a competitive request for applications from researchers around the world who are interested in pursuing groundbreaking research. In June, we collaborated with the American Gaming Association to promote the AGA's Have a Game plan, that responsibly public service campaign. DraftKings has committed to publicize the campaign in many of the company's own channels, including at DraftKings Retail Gaming Properties, to promote safer play. This collaboration marks the first time in the industry that the Have a Game Plan campaign will be comprehensively rolled out across the national retail sportsbook footprint. Most recently, we finalized a strategic consulting agreement with the Division on Addiction at Cambridge Health Alliance, which is affiliated with Harvard Medical School. In coordination with the DraftKings Responsible Gaming team, The Division on Addiction will create an innovative systems-based pay-for-play approach to training employees across the business in responsible gaming.
spk26: Where your shipping address types itself. Where all your tabs go everywhere you go. Where you can surf without getting fished. There's no place like Chrome.
spk06: Responsible gaming is an area in which we will continue to work with the industry and invest in as a company. We are committed to continually improving and evolving how we can best support our customers with gold standard tools for proactively identifying, intervening, and providing guidance so players can set limits, effectively utilize cool-off periods, and self-exclude. I will now turn the call over to DraftKings CFO, Jason Park, who will discuss our second quarter results and revised expectations for 2021.
spk11: Thank you, Jason, and good morning, everyone. Before I begin, I want to remind everyone that we will be discussing our results on a combined company pro forma basis to improve comparability as if we owned our B2B business starting on January 1, 2020, rather than on April 23, 2020. We are pleased to announce that we generated $298 million in revenue for the quarter, representing a 297% increase versus Q2 2020 revenue of $75 million. Our B2C business generated $270 million for the quarter, representing a 383% increase versus prior year. We continue to drive strong growth in players and player retention as measured through MUPS, as well as player engagement and monetization as measured through ARPMUPS. B2C monthly unique payers in the quarter increased 281% year-over-year to $1.1 million. The increase reflects strong unique payer retention and acquisition across DFS, OSD, and iGaming. The expansion of our OSD and iGaming product offerings into new states and the lack of traditional sports for much of the second quarter of 2020. Q2 MUPS represented typical seasonality, with Q2 being a slower sports quarter than Q1. Average revenue per monthly unit payer, or ARPMUPS, was $80 in Q2, representing a 26% increase versus the same period in 2020. Our ARPMUPS was positively impacted by the return to our more normal sports schedule, which resulted in stronger and more consistent customer engagement across our DFS and Sportsbook product offerings. The launch of our sportsbook and iGaming product offerings in additional states also positively impacted our product mix. We also continue to drive engagement across our B2C product offerings as we cross-sell our users into more products. Clearly, a portion of the tremendous year-over-year growth of our B2C business is due to the sports cancellations and postponements that occurred in Q2 2020 due to COVID-19. Second quarter 2021 revenue also exceeded our expectations not only due to the overperformance of our core business as a result of continued strong customer acquisition, retention, and monetization, but also due to higher than forecast OSB hold percentage, which contributed about $20 million to our outperformance in the quarter. Year to date in 2021, higher than forecast OSB hold percentage has contributed approximately $40 million to our outperformance. B2B revenue was $27 million for the quarter, up 44% versus prior year, which was negatively impacted by COVID. We generated $139 million of gross profit dollars on an adjusted EBITDA basis for the entire business in the quarter, representing a 223% increase versus the prior year period. Gross margin rate on an adjusted EBITDA basis for the business was 47% in the quarter. As we have noted in the past, our gross margin rate is impacted by a mixed shift out of our more mature and thus higher margin DFS product offering and into higher growth rate and lower margin OSB and iGaming product offerings. In addition, gross margin rate within a period is impacted by promotional intensity, typically most intense when a new state launches and at the beginning of a major sports season as we aim to acquire customers. Gross margin rates for OSB will be positively impacted by the conversion to our own bed engine, which is now complete in all states but one pending approval, though we will continue to pay our third-party bed engine provider through the end of Q3 2021. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was negative $95 million as we invested in external marketing and in our product technology and G&A function. Our sales and marketing expenses were $157 million, which included our external marketing. External marketing was higher than prior year due to there being a full sports calendar in Q2 2021 versus a COVID-impacted calendar in Q2 2020, as well as being live in 12 total states versus eight in Q2 2020. We are continuing to see very attractive tech opportunities that support this investment in marketing. Our general and administrative and product and technology costs on an adjusted EBITDA basis were $41 million and $36 million, respectively, as we continue to invest to achieve scale in our back office functions, such as customer service, finance and accounting, legal and human resources, as well as adding to our technology team. A majority of the combined $17 million of year-over-year growth in these two expense lines was from compensation. Much of the headcount growth was in our customer experience department, where we are focused on providing best-in-industry customer experience and is largely a variable cost impacted by our rapid growth in MUPS. In the quarter, we expensed $226 million in items that we exclude from adjusted EBITDA but are included in GAAP operating income, including $172 million for stock-based compensation and $54 million for amortization of acquired intangibles, depreciation, and other amortization and other non-recurring expenses. The expense associated with our stock-based compensation awards is based on a defined service period for our time-based grants and a probability-based model for performance-based and long-term incentive plan grants. Our board grants equity awards to retain, motivate, and incentivize key employees. align their interests with those of shareholders, and tie a significant amount of their compensation to working together to produce outstanding company performance. Moving on to our balance sheet and liquidity, we ended the quarter with $2.6 billion of cash on our balance sheet. We are very well capitalized to execute our multi-year plan and address our key priorities of customer acquisition, entering new states as they legalize, continuing to lead the market on product innovation, and exploring opportunistic and accretive M&As. Looking at the rest of 2021, on our first quarter earnings call in May, we increased our 2021 revenue guidance to $1.05 billion to $1.15 billion, from $900 million to $1 billion. Given our continued strong performance in 2021 in underlying acquisition, retention, and monetization of players, we are increasing our guidance to $1.21 billion to $1.29 billion of revenue for 2021, which equates to year-over-year growth of 88% to 100%. We are raising the midpoint of our 2021 revenue guidance, which results in implied second half growth of more than 40% based on our strong results in Q2 and Q3 to date, as well as our demonstrated and continued plan for strong user engagement and efficient customer acquisition. We expect both MUPS and ARPMUPS to grow in 2021, with MUPS increasing at a higher rate than ARPMUPS. We also assume that all professional and college sports calendars that have been announced come to fruition and that we continue to operate in states in which we are alive today. These states collectively represent 25% of the U.S. population for mobile sports betting and 10% of the U.S. population for iGaming. Though Wyoming, Arizona, Maryland, Louisiana, Connecticut, and New York have authorized mobile sports wagering, we do not know the exact date these states will launch, nor in the case of New York, the results of the selection process. As such, we are not including them in our revenue guidance. the underlying strength in our business is responsible for the revenue guidance increase. Regarding our 2021 quarterly revenue cadence, we have a high conviction plan in place for the start of the NFL season and have incorporated sensitivities on a variety of internal and external factors, the largest being sport outcome variability. Based on this analysis, we expect Q3 to be roughly 17% of the midpoint of our new 2021 revenue guidance, which is similar in dollar terms to the guidance we shared with you on May 7th. Due to ongoing excellent customer retention, the efficacy of our customer acquisition investments, and new product features, we expect Q4 to account for approximately 34% of our revenue for the year based on the midpoint of our revised guidance. While we are not providing guidance for 2021 adjusted EBITDA, our investment in sales and marketing is the key input. We always use facts to inform our decision on where, how, and how much to invest in external marketing. Our results since the economy fully reopened confirm that our CACs continue to be very attractive. Based on the attractive LTV to CAC ratio opportunities we're seeing, we plan to continue to invest in sales and marketing to take advantage of these circumstances. From a quarterly perspective, we plan to deploy an optimized but overall similar promotional and marketing campaign as we did in Q3 of 2020, including more activity in the later part of the quarter, which would disproportionately affect adjusted EBITDA in Q3. In the fourth quarter, we expect a slight improvement compared to adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter as we monetize our Q3 promotional and marketing investments and benefit from higher seasonal revenue. As a result, we expect our adjusted EBITDA loss in the second half of 2021 to be approximately 60% of our total annual loss for 2021. Before wrapping up, I want to touch on state-level unit economics. As you know, our business model is predicated on states turning profitable after two to three years due to underlying LTV to CAC dynamics. At this point, I want to affirm our outlook for our most mature state, New Jersey, which we said would generate $210 million in net revenue and $65 million in contribution profit at our March Investor Day. Our other states are on a similar trajectory, and I look forward to providing you updates on those in the near future. As a reminder, our marketing spend is highly flexible and can be reduced or paused altogether if the sports calendar shifts or if LTV to CAC opportunities become less attractive. Our spend is also impacted by the launch of new states. That concludes our remarks, and we will now open the line for questions.
spk28: You could go to Grainger.com to find what you need to get the job done. Grainger, supplies and solutions for every industry.
spk07: As a reminder to ask a question, you will need to press star 1 on your telephone. And to withdraw your question, press the panel key. Please send by while we compile the Q&A roster. Our first question will come from the line of Sean Kelly from Bank of America. You may begin.
spk03: Hi, good morning, everyone. Thanks for taking my question. I was wondering if we could just dig in a little further on the customer acquisition spending outlook for the third quarter, the back half. Maybe just help us a little bit with the timing. It looks like you got very good cost leverage this quarter on the sales and marketing line and those numbers coming down sequentially. So just what's the right expectation for thinking about that investment, especially into NFL and giving the timing of probably some of your larger broadcast contracts and the like?
spk06: Thank you, Sean. So, you know, really we're going to start with we've seen recently that while we kind of expected or at least thought there might be some slowdown in performance due to the reopening, We're not seeing that. So based on what we're seeing today, I would expect we're going to get very good results going into NFL. NFL is basically like our holiday season. It's when we acquire the most new players and reactivate large portions of the player base. We do have a lower CAC target as the players that we acquire tend to be a little bit more casual than the ones that we acquire in, say, Q2. So we're going to manage that CAC target and we'll dial the investment up or down accordingly based on results, which is really hard to predict. I mean, you know, we always learn a lot the first weeks going into NFL. And, you know, based on what we've seen recently, I would expect strong results will continue and we'll want to invest into it. But it's really hard to say. And we'll be monitoring the data on an hourly basis and turning campaigns on and off accordingly. Thank you very much.
spk07: Our next question comes from the line of Stephen Grambling from Goldman Sachs. You may begin.
spk15: Hey, thanks. I guess just following up on the outlook, I think that you referenced that the dollar guidance is roughly unchanged. You know, when we think about the math, I guess, what are some of the puts and takes to think about that could drive numbers above or below, I guess, as we think about the strong growth that you've seen? And it looks like that's embedding some decelerations.
spk06: Are you talking about Q3 specifically?
spk15: I guess both Q3 and Q4.
spk06: I think we raised a little bit in the back half of the year, but you're right. We aren't necessarily banking on the overperformance we've seen in Q1 and Q2 carrying over. I think that continues to be us being a bit cautious about what this NFL season might look like. Obviously, COVID's been up and down, and We could see this swing either way, but based on what we see today, everyone's going to be back in stadiums. Gatherings will be back to normal generally in most places. So we're just being a bit cautious given how significant the NFL period is for customer acquisition and activation about what we think will happen in the back half of the year. Also, there's only three weeks of NFL in Q3, so it's not surprising. It's an interesting period because you activate a lot of players, but a lot of their spending comes in Q4. So the ARPMOP is typically not as high in Q3 as we see in other quarters. So that's something we're also paying attention to.
spk15: Got it. And I guess the NTAA being back would be maybe a partial offset. I guess one follow-up, I guess on the SB Tech integration, I know that you talked about some of the, the increased functionality. How are you thinking about the kind of milestones? Do you feel like the most challenging aspects are behind you, or do you still have to kind of test it through the NFL season?
spk06: Thank you. Yes, that's a great question. So we've definitely tested it quite extensively over the last few weeks. We've migrated in all but one state. That one is pending approval. So we feel pretty good. Obviously, you know, we want to see how NFL looks from a trading perspective, but We've done pretty rigorous testing throughout the other sports on the calendar, and we feel pretty good about it. We launched same-game parlays last week, which was a big feature that our customers have been asking for, also typically has a higher margin. So we have not built in any additional revenue or any additional hold percentage based on new features we're launching. Sort of building off what you said, we want to test those things and see how how they look going into NFL before we would promise any more revenue based on it. But we do think that there's some potential upside in the new features that we'll be launching in the coming weeks and months. Thanks. Best of luck. Thank you.
spk07: Our next question will come from Jed Kelly from Oppenheimer. You may begin.
spk14: Hey, great. Thanks for taking my question. Just following back up on the SB Tech, and same-game parlays, I expect you plan to market that product into NFL. And do you think that will close the yield gap with some of your competitors and a little more vertically integrated? And then another question, just on the seasonality of MUPS, you know, the decline in sports betting, Jason, how do you think of sort of making sports betting a year-round phenomenon and not as seasonally dependent on football?
spk06: Thank you. So on the first question, I think that we certainly have seen evidence across other companies and in the marketplace that same-game parlays have a higher yield. So we could certainly see that. We have not built that into any of our forward-looking guidance. So we're not counting on it, but it's something that we're certainly hoping will be the case. And in general, I would say we're not really trying to maximize hold percentage at this stage. We're onboarding a lot of new customers. It's the early days of the industry. So really, we're focusing on getting people onto the platform, getting them active. And, you know, there will be a time and a place where we'll focus more attention on increasing hold percentage. It's just not right now. And then, sorry, what was the second question?
spk14: Just on LUPS, you know, we saw a seasonal decline. I mean, how do you think about...
spk25: My client's life isn't two-dimensional, so I don't look at his portfolio that way. Can I build a portfolio that reflects his many different sides with Capital Group? I can. Find actionable insights today.
spk14: Sort of making sports betting more year-round and not as dependent on football. It might be impossible, but how do you think about that?
spk06: Yeah, I don't know. Certainly, we think that as... More people try more sports. It'll smooth out a little bit. There are certain sports like soccer, which are very popular among the younger generations, which I think over time will increase. But you're right. The sports themselves are seasonal. So it's very hard for us to control anything when there's popularity differences between different sports and they're only certain times a year. As hard as we may try, we're not anytime soon going to be able to get more people to bet on basketball or baseball than they do on NFL. It's just based on the fan base size. So that's something that I think just we'll always have to kind of live with on sports. But what we can do is continue to launch other types of products. So obviously iGaming has been a good one for us. That's something that people can play year-round. We're cross-selling very effectively onto that product, so while certainly we see bumps when there's more actives, we do think it's a bit smoother seasonally. We recently announced that we're launching the marketplace, so NFTs I think will be a year-round thing. There might be some seasonality given the sports focus, but we're also going to branch into NFTs for other things outside of sports. I think as that product continues to grow in the coming years, we'll see that help smooth out. So I think really that's the way that we're looking at smoothing out seasonality is just trying to diversify into other products that we can effectively cross-sell our customers into and might have a little bit less seasonal variation. Thank you.
spk07: Our next question comes from Michael Graham from Canaccord. You may begin.
spk09: Yeah, thank you, and congrats on the great performance. I wanted to ask, too, one on ARPMUP. Jason, if you could just take us under the hood a little bit on what's driving that strength. You know, you mentioned cross-selling a minute ago. Is it iGaming? Is it more sports, you know, being engaged in by each player or bigger bets from players? Or just can you tell us anything that helps us understand that? And then You had mentioned a long time ago that when you got to one-third coverage of the United States that you would switch a lot of resources towards national ads, and I know you're sort of like almost there but not quite there. Just wondering if you could update us on sort of how you're thinking about the marketing mix going forward.
spk06: Thanks for the question. Regarding ARTMAP, Certainly there's some seasonality to it. Q3, because it's a high activation quarter, but only a few weeks of NFL to monetize, I think we'll have lower art months in Q2. But even relatively speaking, meaning year over year and actually given the sport calendar change, really looking at 2019, it can be helpful versus Q2 of 2021. I think that we're cautiously optimistic that We might just have a higher LTV player than we thought, and I think that's probably the biggest driver beyond anything else. We have also improved cross-sell rates, so iGaming is helping, but even on the course, you know, sports betting products, I think that it's still, you know, looking like ArtMup was higher than expected, again, with the caveat that You know, it's hard to compare anything Q2 versus 2020 Q2. And looking back at 2019, it was a very different time than only a few states that we had, I think, you know, live with sports betting at that point. So actually, I think it might have just been New Jersey at that point. Although I could be wrong on that. There might have been one or two others. Never mind. I'm sorry. It was New Jersey, West Virginia, and Indiana at that point. So there were only a few. So, you know, it's a little hard to compare, but that's why we've also not changed our CAC targets. We're not counting on higher LTVs, but we're certainly optimistic, cautiously, that that could be the case, and we're going to be monitoring that in the coming quarters, and hopefully we'll have more data as the sports schedule stabilizes and it's easier to make year-over-year comparisons. And then the second question was – sorry, you can remind me what the second question was. Oh, national ad spend, right. We're at, right now, 25% of the population. I do think there's a possibility that some new states will launch either right before or during the NFL season, Wyoming and Arizona being two that seem like they're on a good track, and I think others like Louisiana may get in there as well. If that happens, I still don't think we'll quite be at 33%, but I do think you'll see us start to mix some national advertising in this year to test. I think it's important that if we're planning on shifting quite a bit as we get into the mid-30s and 40s level into national advertising, that we have some data in this NFL season to look at to be able to optimize for next year. So you will see us start to test into that this NFL season.
spk04: Great. Thank you. Oh dear, Gene, your customers seem upset, Larry. Have some coffee. They are upset, Gene, because I keep sending them the same canned response. Nice work, Larry. Have some coffee.
spk07: Our next question will come from Bernie McTernan from Needham & Company.
spk16: Great, good morning. Thanks for taking the question. Just to follow up before, Jason, you mentioned a bit more cautious on the NFL. I was hoping you could dive into that a little bit more. Is it competitive environment or something else you were referring to?
spk06: Well, I think we're still waiting to see what a year potentially people in stadiums and more of an open economy looks like. That's the biggest factor. Of course, that could change. We also don't know that. I think there's a lot of moving variables, and we're just trying to exercise caution and not getting overly bullish based on results that we've seen early on, suggesting that the reopening is having no adverse effect on the momentum we've seen. If we get an NFL season under our belt with the economy generally open around the country and around the states we have online sports betting and iGaming, I think then we start to feel really good that we're not going to see any adverse impact and that it's really just truly momentum in the industry and with drafting.
spk16: Understood. And then just to drill down the NFT marketplace for a second, could you just talk about what the economics of a transaction in the marketplace are, the level of investment of time and money that it will take, and what's the upside opportunity? I think there's three or four major NFT marketplaces right now. Do you need to be a top operator to really move the needle for the company? Or is that the right way to think about it?
spk06: I think it is the right way to think about it because being a marketplace, having liquidity is important. That said, we also have exclusive rights that we've secured through our relationship with Autograph to be able to sell NFTs that are, you know, for top athletes like Tom Brady, Wayne Gretzky, Naomi Osaka, Tiger Woods, Derek Jeter, and many others, Tony Hawk, many others. So we feel pretty good that, you know, having that exclusivity, no matter how liquid our marketplace is initially, will drive a lot of traffic. But over the long term, I think being a marketplace, it's important to have the highest or close to highest level of liquidity. People are going to go where there's the most buying and selling when they're posting secondary transactions and things like that, which is true of any marketplace, really. So I think that is how we're looking at it. We do have a much larger user base than any of the other marketplaces that exist today. So we feel like we're starting from a position of strength, much like the Daily Fantasy user base. has helped us as we launch online sports betting into other states. I think that having a big database with millions of active customers will really be a leg up for us. And it just comes down to how effectively can we cross-sell. And I think we feel pretty good about that, given our track record of cross-selling other products. But this is also our first foray into something that's a little bit different. So we're going to have to see how the data shakes out.
spk16: Understood. Thanks for taking the questions.
spk06: Thank you.
spk07: Our next question will come from Ben Chaiken from Credit Suisse. You may begin.
spk05: Hey, how's it going? It seems like the media angle is particularly interesting. You talked about MLB streaming. I think you mentioned exploring some subscription revenues, if I caught that. I guess when it comes to unique sporting events that require a one-time payment or some type of exclusive access, I guess I'm thinking like boxing or out-of-network games, Why not offer a promotion that allows access upon sign-up and deposit with DraftKings? High level, it just seems like the cost of that versus your normal CAC is compelling relative to other channels. Is that something you could do? And then forgive me if this question lacks awareness in some way and there's an obvious answer why it wouldn't work. Thanks, Ben.
spk06: I think it's a great idea. That's definitely something we've talked about. In order to do it, it depends on the event, but most of the time you have to have the rights. that's something that we'll look into exploring as well. And those rights, of course, cost money. So while giving it away is one way to look at it, it's actually really the cost of the rights that matters, which, of course, are lower than the cost of the pay-per-view because that's how money is made by companies that traditionally do that. So that's something that we're absolutely looking at amongst other things. We're still very early in developing our media strategy. Our goal is to have much more of it fleshed out by the end of the year and have explored some of those opportunities in the marketplace, such as the one you mentioned, to see if it could be something that works for us. We do want the media vertical to, on its own, be a profit-generating vertical, certainly over the long term. I think we have the flexibility to not do that if we wanted to, but as of today, we believe that we can both make a profit directly in the vertical and have the synergistic benefit of being able to acquire and retain users using the content that we put out there as well. Gotcha. That makes sense.
spk05: And then just quickly follow up, our second question would be, I know Canada is not in your numbers, but it sounds like Ontario is going to be live maybe by the end of this year, October, November, who knows. But will Canada follow a similar cadence to how you've launched new states? And I think you've provided some guidance around New Jersey and other states about how you think about promotion and external marketing. Is that a reasonable way to think about Canada, or is there a different format? Just because this is a little size-wise, it's different.
spk22: you know liberty mutual customizes your car insurance so you only pay for what you need like how i customized this scarf check out this backpack i made for marco only pay for what you need liberty liberty liberty liberty i think we look at it the same way it's an ltv to cat question um you know we have
spk06: plenty of daily fantasy customers in Canada, and we don't see really any differences between their spend levels and the customers that we have in the U.S., so I don't really have any reason to believe it's different. The interesting thing about Canada is that most major operators around the world have been in Canada for quite some time, so it's a little bit different than new U.S. states where they're opening up, and in some ways, I think we have to focus on taking customers that have already been playing as much as trying to convert new customers, which is why we projected a lower long-term market share for Canada than we have for the U.S. One thing I wanted to just on your previous question note as well that occurred to me after I answered, a lot of pay-per-views that distribute through multiple platforms are They actually have in their contracts with the platforms they distribute on that no one can give away for free or even under a certain price because it undermines the other platforms. They would say, why would anyone pay for a pay-per-view on my platform if they're getting it free elsewhere? Very common in the media industry. There's lots of things like this. MFNs are a very common thing and also restrictions on what you can and can't sell things for are very common. So that's something we would have to work around unless we had exclusive rights to distribute a pay-per-view. Makes sense. Thank you. Thank you.
spk07: Our next question comes from Robin Farley from UBS. You may begin.
spk18: Great. Thanks. Can you quantify a little bit how much of the revenue raised for the year is due to new initiatives like Marketplace?
spk06: Hi, Robin. We have not built in any additional revenue expectation from new initiatives. We really don't have enough data. We have no data to base it on. So, we haven't assumed any new states. We haven't assumed any new initiatives generating revenue. Those are all things that once we have a little bit more clarity on the state side as to which states and when might go live, we would be able to update. And then as we get a little bit of data on new initiatives, I think we'd be able to update that. That said, I wouldn't expect new initiatives to generate a huge amount of revenue this year. This will be very early days of us launching them. Obviously, we have very strong conviction and are very excited about the long-term prospects and think that the markets that we're entering, like NFTs, could be really, really large, but it'll take a little time for those new products to ramp.
spk18: Okay, thanks. And then the other question is, on the agreement that you signed with Genius Sports, you mentioned you have access to all of their other data outside of the NFL or that that was part of the deal. Does that lower your cost in some way for things outside of the NFL? In other words, was it packaged with other things that lower the cost that you've been paying for that data elsewhere?
spk06: That's a great question. We aren't really able to give any specifics on that contract, but what we will say is that we do not expect any adverse effect to our long-term gross margin projections based on the pricing that we receive. You know, I think you can kind of read between the lines based on that, but, you know, due to confidentiality, we're not able to disclose any details of the contract. Okay, great. Thank you.
spk07: And as a reminder, please ask one question when you're asking a question in the interest of time. And our next question will come from the line of David Katz from Jefferies. You may begin.
spk02: Hi, good morning, everyone. My one question is, and it's one that I've asked a few quarters back, but not lately, is around in-game wagering and the breadth of offerings there. Obviously, we're reminded by the parlay indication. If you could just talk about the breadth of offerings, where you are today, and what we can reasonably expect you know, in the future? And is that something that's entirely driven within the confines of SB Tech or are there other, you know, B2B services or tuck-ins or other things you may need to fully build that out? Thanks.
spk06: Thank you. You know, one of the things that really, you know, we've noted we're excited about with now having migrated to our in-house platform is the ability to drive innovation and things like in-game wagering and other innovative types of bets that Previously, we had a lot more dependence on our partner, Camby, for. So we're really excited about that. And, you know, it's been an all-consuming thing, the migration. As you can imagine, it was a large project, the largest we've ever done from a product and technology perspective. And it's a real testament to the great people on our product and engineering team to be able to have not only done that a little bit ahead of schedule, but also to have continued to launch new things, including our upcoming launch of Marketplace, but also several new states and other sorts of things along the way, including BK Craps and many iGaming games that we've released. So really just I'm so proud of that team for not only ahead of schedule completing a very smooth migration, but also continuing to innovate But it is true that it was very all-consuming, and so I think now that that's mostly behind us, we do still have one state left. We're really in a position to start focusing on driving innovation and launching new things. As far as third parties, much like our iGaming product, we're going to do both. There's just a speed-to-market aspect of being able to integrate different providers and also at the same time launch things ourselves. And much like what we're doing with iGaming, we'll look at things that either we can't get through third-party providers or economically it just makes sense for us to bring in-house. And we'll do that over time with the goal being most things are in-house over the long term. There's just such a long tail of different types of bets and same thing on iGaming, different types of games that there's always going to be a mix of things that we've completely built on our own and things that we've built either partially or in partnership with third parties.
spk02: Okay, perfect. Thank you.
spk07: Our next question will come from Joe Stoff from Susquehanna. You may begin.
spk20: Good morning, Jason and Jason. Good morning. One other question to add on regarding your product offering. How do you think about, especially given your newfound flexibility in the in-house platform, about extending out to different consumer segments? Again, whether they be offshore or something. I know it's not an immediate thing, but how do you think about extending your product into those other consumer segments, say, over time?
spk06: So I definitely think that there's an opportunity, as you noted, to expand globally, and that's something that we're looking at doing either inorganically or organically or a combination of the two. But I think within sports betting, the opportunity to maybe branch into other sports that we haven't had as deep of an offering that could reach different types of people is interesting and I think something that we're exploring. And then, you know, outside of sports, which we've always, you know, isn't specific to the migration, of course, we definitely feel in the iGaming segment that we do better with people who are sports fans that we can cross sell. And we've been working hard to try to, you know, extend our brand and extend our reach into the, you know, non-sports fan iGaming audience. And That's something I think we've been getting a bit of traction on, but, you know, really need to continue to invest. I think that's probably the biggest opportunity for us now in terms of consumer segments that we're just not penetrating at the moment. Thank you.
spk07: Our next question comes from Lionel Stevens from Calend. You may begin.
spk17: Hi. Thanks for the question. I just wanted to unpack the announcement with Genius yesterday a bit more on same-game parlays. Were the same game parlays launched on the app a product built in-house by DraftKings, or are you using Genius' BetBuilder product? And if it is Genius' product, why are you using their product? I believe BetMGM is also using that same product, and FanDuel has developed an in-house parlay product. So if you can just talk around that, please.
spk06: I mentioned this a few moments ago, but we're going to put out a mix of different things that are organically developed and things where we're partnering, and it's going to depend on a variety of factors, such as the opportunity cost of building them in the short term, the actual cost of using a third party. In this particular case, it was packaged up with a larger deal, so we felt like it was a good way to get same-game parlays into the market really quickly in advance of NFL, and it frees up our engineering time to focus on other things. So that's a lot of how in the short term we're going to look at it, is if there's a good solution that gets us something that's as good or better than what our competitors have, and we can free up engineering bandwidth to focus on other things that maybe our competitors don't have. that's going to be the initial focus. And then over time, I think we will take things that prove to be large parts of our offering that we think there's an economic benefit to vertically integrating and focus on those. But in the short term, it's really about as quickly as possible having the broadest and deepest product offering since we think at this stage of the game, getting maximum activation and retention of consumers is the most important thing.
spk17: All right. Thanks, Jason. But just to be clear, so that is the BetGenius product, then, that is on the app right now for the parlay?
spk06: I believe so. I know we were using, because we just announced the deal, I think, yesterday, and we had same-game parlays we launched earlier this week. I know we were using another provider. I'm not sure if we fully switched over to BetGenius yet, but that's the plan. Okay. Thank you.
spk07: My next question is from Jonas from Cruise Securities. You may begin.
spk13: States have been slower to legalize iGaming than, say, sports betting. I know your expectations there aren't the same as sports betting, but what do you think needs to happen to get more momentum on the iGaming legalization front?
spk06: I think, you know, we've always felt and I think have said that It's going to be sports first and then iGaming. I think that it's just the kind of natural evolution of things that states are going to be more comfortable, in many cases, going sports first. And then once they get used to the tax revenues coming in, see more and more states doing iGaming, we think more and more states will get comfortable with iGaming as well. Some states, such as Connecticut this year, chose to do them all at once. Michigan did the same thing. Pennsylvania did the same thing. So you know, we may see that here and there. And then we may see states like West Virginia, for example, that did sports betting first and then a year or two later did iGaming. So I think it'll be a mix, but, you know, we certainly expect the momentum to be first with sports betting legalization and then iGaming to be something that follows that. And I think that in terms of your question about how to get them comfortable, I think there's really two things. One is just, you know, most states don't want to be the guinea pig. So more and more that they see other states, particularly it tends to be regional in their geographic areas doing it. And the more that they feel like everything's going well and the playbook on how to regulate it is clear, the more I think comfort they'll get. I think also seeing how much tax revenue can be generated and back to the kind of regional point, if there's bleed from states right neighboring them because they have iGaming and a state that's chosen to do sports betting does not, I think that could be a reason that they move faster. But it's really just time, and we're going to continue to push the message out there that This is something that can be done in a safe manner. We have great guardrails in place and are continuing to invest in getting better at responsible gaming, and there's real meaningful tax revenue that can be generated by adding that product. Thank you.
spk07: Our next question comes from Ryan Sigdahl from Craig Hallam Capital. You may begin.
spk10: Good morning, guys. Thanks for squeezing me in. Nice metrics on New Jersey iGaming that you gave, really strong performance there. What do you think is driving that accelerated market share gains recently here versus the past several quarters? And then secondly, why do you think you're having more success taking share on iGaming versus OSB?
spk06: Thanks. Great question. I mean, I think iGaming is actually, and hopefully it foreshadows OSB, a great example of where we've invested in launching our own games and enhancing our own products. For example, we mentioned we had launched our own in-house craps game last quarter, and I think that that's really helped generate momentum and gain market share. We've been really consumed with the migration, and also, of course, there are many things we couldn't do on the product front before migrating, so I think now that we're finally in a position where we control our own destiny there and we're able to innovate, I hope to be able to do many of the same things that we've done in the last several quarters on the iGaming front product-wise, and we hope that that helps us gain more share and retain and acquire customers more effectively.
spk10: Great. Thanks, guys. Good luck. Thank you.
spk07: And our last question for today will come from the line of Mike Hickey. from the benchmark company, Miriam.
spk08: Nice. Morning, Jason. Jason, nice quarter, guys, and Guy. Congrats. Thank you. I guess two, just the first one, just any progress you've made on sort of adding social layers to your app. I think that was sort of the theme on your last call with the tie-in on retention there on your user base. And the second question on NFTs, just curious, obviously the cross-bill opportunity seems like a no-brainer, but curious on the user acquisition side, you know, thinking about NFT offerings, maybe tied into live events and that can bring players into the ecosystem. Thanks, guys.
spk28: Say switch and save $665 with Liberty Mutual. That's one for the grandbirds.
spk06: Thank you. You know, social is off to a great start. It's very early. I mean, we launched an MVP only a few months ago, and so we still feel like we have a very lengthy and exciting roadmap there. But the early results have been very strong. We've seen great adoption. We monitor daily and monthly active users on the social features separate from daily and monthly active users on the other products, and we've seen that continually increasing since we've launched. And I think we'll learn a lot in NFL season based on how many of our customers that we acquire and activate we're able to get adopting those social features. So very excited about it. I think it's too early to share any metrics, but we're starting to flesh out what metrics we might be comfortable sharing in the coming quarters. On the NFT side, you know, I definitely feel like it'll be a great cross-sell product. We'll know when we get the data, but we've done enough market research and on our customers to know that quite a few of them are interested in it and there's good overlap with our current customer base. And I do agree that it could also potentially have some upside on the customer acquisition side. Just like we do with every product in our portfolio, we test which are the best products to most efficiently bring people onto the platform. And then once they're on the platform, we try to cross-sell them across everything we do. And I think there could be some upside on that front for sure, but we're going to have to wait and see in you know, really we'll do whatever the data suggests. But it's something that we've talked about as a potential upside. And in general, I think just having the broadest product portfolio gives us the most options for how we can acquire different pockets of customers. So not only does it increase LTV, but, you know, also has positive effect on our CAC efficiency over time to just have the broadest and deepest product portfolio possible.
spk07: Thank you. That's all the time we have for questions today.
spk06: Thank you all for joining us on today's call. We appreciate your questions and look forward to continuing our conversations with you. Our performance in 2021 continues to be very strong and we're excited for what the rest of the year and beyond holds for us. DraftKings is well positioned with $2.6 billion in cash to capitalize on legislative advancements in several states, complete the migration to our own in-house Fed engine, expand and initiate relationships with important organizations, and advance new product technology and content initiatives. I hope you all stay safe and well, and we look forward to speaking with you on our next earnings call in November.
spk07: This concludes today's conference call. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect.
