1 – Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”). See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a discussion of the definition of Adjusted EBITDA and “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of this measure to net loss.
First quarter 2022 revenue was $21.2 million, an increase of $15.7 million, or 287%, from the first quarter of 2021. The growth was primarily driven by the sale of LotteryLink credits to a LotteryLink affiliate, primarily to acquire pre-paid promotional rewards that may be issued by such affiliate to consumers for their purchase of lottery games and services from Lottery.com upon activation of an account.
First quarter 2022 gross profit was $18.0 million, an increase of $15.5 million from the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by the sale of LotteryLink credits to the above referenced LotteryLink affiliate. As a result of the delayed launch of such affiliate’s promotional program, most of the pre-paid promotional rewards expired without being issued to consumers. As a result, the Company did not incur costs associated with redemption of most of such LotteryLink credits.
First quarter 2022 net loss was $15.8 million compared to a net loss of $5.5 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by the incurrence of $22.2 million of non-cash stock compensation expense and other increased personnel costs, which were offset by the strong gross profit described above.
First quarter 2022 Adjusted EBITDA was $7.7 million, an increase of $10.3 million from the first quarter of 2021. The increase was driven by the strong gross profit described above, partially offset by increased public company expenses and higher expenses associated with the execution of growth initiatives.
Cash as of March 31, 2022, was $50.8 million, an increase of $32.5 million from March 31, 2021, driven primarily by proceeds from the business combination with Trident Acquisition Corp. in October 2021, and strong operating results, partially offset by an increase in working capital.
Debt as of March 31, 2022, was $3.5 million, a decrease of $38.0 million from March 31, 2021, driven primarily by the conversion of the Company’s convertible debt into equity, in conjunction with the business combination.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP performance measures that we use to supplement our results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating our operating performance, similar to measures reported by our peers, and regularly used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be substitutes for any U.S. GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.
We define and calculate EBITDA as net income or loss before the impact of interest income or expense, income tax expense or benefit, depreciation and amortization, and Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, as further adjusted for stock-based compensation and certain other non-recurring, non-cash or non-core items.
We include these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by management to evaluate our core operating performance and trends and to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments. The financial statement tables that accompany this press release include a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to their most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.

Lottery.com Enters Final Phase of Turnaround with $250M Growth Strategy, Strategic Acquisitions, and Shareholder Engagement

FORT WORTH, Texas, April 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lottery.com Inc. (Nasdaq: LTRY, LTRYW), a leading provider of digital lottery, sweepstakes, and sports entertainment technology, today announced that it is planning its first shareholder webinar in more than three years to be held in the coming weeks as part of its continued commitment to transparency, engagement and building trust. Chairman and CEO Matthew McGahan will also be issuing a formal communication to shareholders providing insight into the Company’s strategic progress and vision for growth.
These initiatives come as the Company nears the successful conclusion of a two-year corporate turnaround, which has positioned Lottery.com for long-term operational strength, strategic expansion, and shareholder value creation.
Matthew McGahan, Chairman and CEO of Lottery.com, commented:
“As we approach the final phase of this disciplined turnaround, now is the right time to directly engage with our shareholders, share our roadmap, and outline the exciting opportunities ahead. This journey has always been about rebuilding with integrity and ambition—and we’re ready to deliver.”
A Comprehensive Turnaround from the Top Down:
- Board and Governance: Complete overhaul of the Board of Directors, installing experienced leadership committed to transparency and growth. Additionally, the Company formed a strategic Advisory Board in February 2025, comprising industry leaders and experts guiding international expansion, responsible gaming, and technological innovation.
- C-Suite Rebuild: Restructuring of the executive team, with McGahan transitioning from Non-Executive Chairman to CEO and President of both Lottery.com and Sports.com. Additionally, the Company appointed Robert Stubblefield as its Chief Financial Officer and Gregory Potts as its Chief Operating Officer.
- Legal and Compliance Reset: Replacement of all prior legal counsel, with new representation including the recent engagement of recognized Crowell & Moring as the Company’s global counsel.
- Capital Markets and Strategic Funding: Appointment of Cohen & Company Capital Markets as investment banker, alongside securing $100 million from Generating Alpha Ltd. and $150 million from United Capital Investments London (UCIL). These facilities are being deployed strategically to drive shareholder value through cash-generative acquisitions; cutting-edge technology development and investment; resumption and expansion of gaming operations that drives revenues; and building balance sheet strength.
Strategic Use of Funding for Growth:
The Company emphasizes that capital secured through its funding facilities, including the recently filed S-1, will be strategically deployed to:
- Build or acquire state-of-the-art technology for Lottery.com and Sports.com, enabling immersive, live-streaming sports media and enhanced fan engagement.
- Close advanced stage, revenue generative acquisitions, designed to accelerate profits and deliver shareholder value.
- Strengthen the Company’s balance sheet and fund innovation across its digital lottery and sports entertainment platforms.
Legal Success and Stability:
Lottery.com has successfully defended more than a dozen legal cases, eliminating key litigation risks and solidifying the foundation for future growth.
Vision for 2025 and Beyond:
With the turnaround nearly complete, the Company is focused on increasing revenues through resuming gaming operations and monetizing Sports.com and completing certain acquisitions that will accelerate profitability and shareholder value.
Engaging with Shareholders:
As part of the Lottery.com’s continued commitment to transparency, shareholder engagement and building public trust, the Company plans the following:
- Webinar: The Company shall host a shareholder webinar in Q2.
- Shareholder Letter: A formal communication from Chairman and CEO Matthew McGahan to the Company’s shareholders will be issued in the coming weeks.

Lottery.com Files Amended Registration Statement on Form S-1

$100 Million Committed Stock Purchase Agreement to Fuel Strategic Turnaround and Expansion
FORT WORTH, Texas, April 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lottery.com Inc. (Nasdaq: LTRY), a leading technology company a leading technology company in digital lottery, charitable sweepstakes and sports entertainment, today announced the filing of an amended registration statement on Form S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The filing is related to the registration of shares issuable under a $100 million committed stock purchase agreement (“SPA”) with Generating Alpha Ltd., along with audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
Under the SPA with Generating Alpha, signed in November 2024, Lottery.com has the right—but not the obligation—to draw down up to $100 million in capital through the sale of common stock. This committed funding provides the Company with strategic flexibility to support its operational relaunch, revenue growth, and rapid expansion into the digital entertainment media sector.
Strategic Highlights from the S-1 Filing:
- Operational Relaunch: Lottery.com is preparing to resume its core domestic lottery operations, has restarted sweepstakes, and initiated international lottery revenue programs to support its existing business in Mexico and expand to Africa, Asia, and Europe.
- Growth in Digital Sports and Entertainment Media: Through its Sports.com platform, the Company is targeting the rapidly growing $2.4 trillion global streaming and sports content market, with plans for original content production and immersive fan engagement.
- Flexible Capital Access: The $100 million SPA with Generating Alpha allow the Company to control its capital deployment, enabling it to scale without immediate dilution pressures.
- Premium Digital Assets: Lottery.com and Sports.com represent high-value domain IP. The strength of those brand names is key to the Company’s brand positioning and competitive advantage in the digital entertainment landscape.
- NASDAQ and SEC Compliance: The Company remains in full compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements and SEC regulations, reinforcing its stability as it repositions for growth.
Matthew McGahan, Chairman and CEO of Lottery.com, commented:
“With the flexibility of our $100 million committed capital facility and a clear roadmap for operational resurgence, revenue growth, and digital media expansion, Lottery.com is poised to capitalize on emerging opportunities in both the lottery and sports entertainment sectors. Access to this type of funding will allow us to progress to our aggressive buy-and-build strategy and complete our pipeline of strategic acquisitions across Lottery.com and Sports.com in the immediate future. Our re-entry into the market is backed by strategic vision, high-value digital assets and the financial agility to scale—creating far stronger shareholder value.”
