DraftKings has experienced significant revenue growth of 39% for the third quarter of 2024, reaching $1.095 billion.

DraftKings has introduced its fiscal year 2025 revenue guidance, projecting between $6.2 billion and $6.6 billion. The company has also reiterated its fiscal year 2025 adjusted EBITDA guidance, expected to be between $900 million and $1 billion.
