Third quarter 2021 revenue of $32.2 million and net income of $11.2 million
Strong growth in user transaction profitability
AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lottery.com Inc. (Nasdaq: LTRY, LTRYW) (“Lottery.com” or the “Company”), a leading technology company that is transforming how, where and when lottery is played, reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021. These results were achieved prior to the closing of the Company’s business combination with Trident Acquisitions Corp. on October 29, 2021. The Company’s unaudited financial statements for the third quarter of 2021 and other information have been filed in a Current Report on Form 8-K/A today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Tony DiMatteo, Lottery.com Co-Founder and CEO, commented, “We are proud of the strong revenue and profitability growth we achieved in the third quarter. While we were working toward the completion of our business combination, we acted decisively to advance our plans for our global affiliate program and monetize one of our assets by leveraging a B2B partner relationship. The start of this program provided increased revenue in the third quarter and is an essential building block of our B2B2C strategy, which we expect will lead to an increased user base and additional revenue from those end users going forward. Additionally, the implementation of a dynamic pricing model and improvements to our app, such as push notifications, contributed to strong growth in gross profit per transaction compared to the prior year period.”
Mr. DiMatteo continued, “Now that we have successfully completed our business combination, we are focused on utilizing the proceeds we realized from the transaction, along with our third quarter profits, to accelerate our targeted user marketing campaigns, enter new markets, expand our product offerings, and execute strategic and synergistic acquisitions. With our low customer acquisition costs, large addressable markets and leading brands, we look forward to realizing the profitable growth opportunities before us.”

Third quarter 2021 revenue was $32.2 million, an increase of $30.6 million from the third quarter of 2020. The growth was driven by the global affiliate marketing program.
Third quarter 2021 gross profit was $20.3 million, an increase of $19.4 million from the third quarter of 2020. The increase was driven by the global affiliate marketing program as well as improved user profitability.
Third quarter 2021 gross profit per transaction was $1.69, or a $0.76 increase from the third quarter of 2020. The increase was driven by the implementation of a dynamic pricing model and improvements made to the Company’s platform, including push notifications, which contributed to higher tickets sold per transaction and higher revenue per transaction.
Third quarter 2021 net income was $11.2 million, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2020. The improvement was driven by the increase in gross profit partially offset by expenses associated with the business combination.
Outlook and Update Following Business Combination

On October 29, 2021, the Company successfully completed its business combination with Trident Acquisitions Corp.

Sebastian Murray Makes Second INDY NXT by Firestone Start Driving No. 2 Car Sponsored by Lottery.com and Sports.com
Strong Qualifying for Andretti Cape Driver & Red-and-Black Branding Turn Heads
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., May 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Rising open-wheel talent Sebastian Murray made his second INDY NXT by Firestone start this weekend at the Grand Prix of Alabama, driving the No. 2 Dream Racing Dubai Dallara for Andretti Cape, backed by Lottery.com Inc. (Nasdaq: LTRY, LTRYW) and Sports.com.
Key Highlights:
- Qualified P10 – Murray’s best qualifying result of the season so far
- Climbed to P8 during the race before an incident forced a drop in pace
- Finished P16, now P17 in the championship standings (27 points)
- Next stop: Double-header at Indianapolis Motor Speedway – May 9 & 10
Murray impressed in qualifying, starting P10 on the grid at the technically demanding Barber Motorsports Park. He was running inside the top ten and pushing toward the front until a snap in the rear of the car forced him off-track in Turn 8, damaging his tires and limiting his pace over the final 26 laps.
“Our race pace was really good up until we were involved in an incident,” said Murray. “We were sitting in P8, and it was going well — we were going to collect some solid points.”
“It’s unfortunate, but I think there are a lot of positives to take from the weekend,” he added. “The team has done a great job, so thank you to everyone at Andretti Cape. We’ll move on to Indy next week, and hopefully we can get some proper points.”
This race marked the official debut of Lottery.com and Sports.com branding on the No. 2 car and Murray’s race suit, with logos featured on the rear wing, front nose cone, and driver overalls — launching a full-season campaign that blends elite motorsport exposure with fan engagement and digital content.
Murray now prepares for a back-to-back test of endurance and precision at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Road Course, with two INDY NXT races scheduled for May 9 and May 10.
“We’re incredibly proud of Sebastian Murray’s race,” said Marc Bircham, Director of Sports.com and Head of Sporting Acquisitions. “To qualify in the top 10 was an outstanding achievement. In my career, I’ve coached many young athletes, and the first few times on the big stage is nerve-racking. Seb showed great promise and made a gallant effort to move up to 8th position before the incident. Overall, we are pleased with his performance and are looking forward to seeing Sebastian progress as the season goes on. He’s definitely a driver for the future.”
“We were also delighted with the look of the car — the red and black design with Lottery.com and Sports.com branding stood out as the most attractive car on the grid.”
