Marketing spend for the new Predictions product jumped to $605.7 million, blowing out the loss and forcing a cut to full-year revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance. Management is asking investors to wait for 2027, when it promises $800 million to $1.0 billion in adjusted EBITDA. With shares near multi-year lows, that promise is the investment case.

Nov 6, 6:50am ET

More than 1.6 million customers have engaged with Predictions year-to-date, and combined with the strength of our core, we believe we are set up for an exceptional 2027.

Robins is putting prediction markets at the center of DraftKings' 2027 story, a direct answer to the Kalshi and Polymarket encroachment on sportsbook turf. For an $11.7 billion company, how fast that user base converts into real handle is the number that decides next year.
