Maantiede
2025DraftKings is primarily a U.S. business, and its growth depends on state-by-state legalization and licensing of online sports betting and iGaming. As of the filing, it operates in 27 of the 33 U.S. jurisdictions that have legalized online sports betting, while iGaming remains limited to a smaller set of states. Geography matters because taxes, licensing, retail-partner requirements and product legality vary materially by state and directly affect margins and expansion speed.

Riskit
DraftKings faces heavy regulatory dependence because its growth is tied to state legalization, licensing and tax regimes, while prediction markets add federal CFTC oversight. The business is also exposed to intense competition, promotional spending, consumer discretionary weakness, fraud/cybersecurity incidents and seasonal swings tied to the sports calendar.
