Genius Sports (NYSE: GENI), the sports data and technology company, released Q3 earnings earlier today, and despite increasing the company’s full fiscal 2021 outlook – plunged over 24% to create a new annual low. It appears investors didn’t react well to the other details revealed in the Q3 report.
Genius delivered a record high Q3 revenue of $69.1M, totaling growth of over 70% year-on-year. Furthermore, Genius announced partnerships with Entain/BetMGM, FanDuel, Golden Nugget, Hard Rock Digital, and more – showing sustained growth and evident plans for continued expansion – with over 97% of the U.S market now using NFL data exclusively through Genius.
Based on the number of partnerships made in the last quarter and the company’s long-term outlook, Genius has increased their 2021 revenue guidance from $255-$260M to $257-$262M – equating to over 70% year-on-year growth. Perhaps the bear run had something to do with the company adjusting its EBITDA to break even from $10-$20M.
