FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements, which are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “design,” “intend,” “expect,” “could,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “seek,” “should,” “would,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” or the negative version of these words and other comparable terminology that concern our expectations, strategy, plans, intentions, or projections. Forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, anticipated cash requirements, industry and business trends, stock-based compensation, revenue recognition, business strategy, plans and market growth, legal proceedings, and our objectives for future operations, including related to investment in our technologies and data capabilities, subscriber acquisition strategies, impacts of the dissolution of our gaming business, the proposed Business Combination (as defined below), including the anticipated timing thereof and anticipated benefits therefrom, and our international operations.

We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects, business strategy and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including those described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of this Annual Report. These risks are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Annual Report include additional factors that could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, and new risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this Annual Report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

In addition, forward-looking statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Annual Report, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

The forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Annual Report or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

RISK FACTORS SUMMARY

Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those described in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report. Material risks that may affect our business, operating results and financial condition include, but are not limited to, the following:

•We have incurred operating losses in the past, expect to incur operating losses in the future and may never achieve or maintain profitability.

•We may require additional capital to meet our financial obligations and support planned business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms or at all.

•Our revenue is subject to seasonality, and if subscriber behavior during certain seasons falls below our expectations, our business may be harmed.

•Our operating results may fluctuate, which makes our results difficult to predict.

•If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our business, operating results, and financial condition may suffer.

•The Business Combination (as defined below) may not be completed on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all, and failure to complete the Business Combination may result in material adverse consequences to Fubo’s business and operations.

•Fubo and Hulu, LLC will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the Business Combination is pending that could adversely affect either of them or, in the event the Business Combination is completed, Newco (as defined below).

•The long-term nature of certain of our content commitments may limit our operating flexibility and could adversely affect our liquidity and results of operations.

•Our results may be adversely affected if long-term content contracts are not renewed on sufficiently favorable terms.

•If our efforts to attract and retain subscribers are not successful, our business will be adversely affected.

•Our agreements with certain distribution partners may contain parity obligations which limit our ability to pursue unique partnerships.

•If content providers refuse to license streaming content or other rights upon terms acceptable to us, our business could be adversely affected.

•Our content providers impose a number of restrictions on how we distribute and market our products and services, which can adversely affect our business.

•We rely upon Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services to operate certain aspects of our service, and any disruption of or interference with our use of Google Cloud Platform and/or Amazon Web Services would impact our operations and our business would be adversely impacted.

•Our key metrics and other estimates are subject to inherent challenges in measurement, and real or perceived inaccuracies in those metrics may seriously harm and negatively affect our reputation and our business.

•Preparing and forecasting our financial results requires us to make judgments and estimates which may differ materially from actual results, and if our operating and financial performance does not meet the guidance that we provide to the public, the market price of our common stock may decline.

•TV streaming is highly competitive and many companies, including large technology and entertainment companies, TV brands, and service operators, are actively focusing on this industry. If we fail to differentiate ourselves and compete successfully with these companies, it will be difficult for us to attract or retain subscribers and our business will be harmed.

•If the technology we use in operating our business fails, is unavailable, or does not operate to expectations, our business and results of operation could be adversely impacted.

•If government regulations relating to the Internet or other areas of our business change, we may need to alter the manner in which we conduct our business and we may incur greater operating expenses.

•We are subject to taxation-related risks in multiple jurisdictions.

•Legal proceedings could cause us to incur unforeseen expenses and could occupy a significant amount of our management’s time and attention.

•The impact of worldwide economic conditions may adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

•We may be unable to successfully expand our international operations and our international expansion plans, if implemented, will subject us to a variety of economic, political, regulatory and other risks.

•We are subject to a number of legal requirements and other obligations regarding privacy, security, consumer protection and data protection, and any actual or perceived failure to comply with these requirements or obligations could have an adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition and operating results.

•Any significant interruptions, delays or discontinuations in service or disruptions in or unauthorized access to our information technology systems or those of third parties that we utilize in our operations, including those relating to cybersecurity or arising from cyber-attacks, could result in a loss or degradation of service, unauthorized disclosure of data, including subscriber and corporate information, or theft of intellectual property, including digital content assets, which could adversely impact our business.

Our Mission

With a global mission to aggregate the best in TV, including premium sports, news and entertainment content, through a single app, Fubo aims to transcend the industry’s current TV model.

Overview

We are a sports-first, Pay TV replacement product offering subscribers access to tens of thousands of live sporting events annually, alongside leading news and entertainment content, both live and on demand. Fubo’s platform is designed to empower customers to seamlessly access content through streaming devices and on Smart TVs, mobile phones, tablets, and computers.

Live TV streaming has disrupted the traditional Pay TV model (linear video delivered via cable or satellite providers for a paid subscription), which we refer to as “Pay TV.” This disruption has shifted billions of dollars in subscription and advertising revenue to over-the-top (“OTT”) streaming platforms, as evidenced by the accelerating rate of Pay TV cord-cutting in the United States. We believe there remains a significant opportunity for us to capitalize on the cord-cutting movement.

We offer subscribers a live TV streaming service with the option to purchase incremental features, including additional content or enhanced functionality (“Attachments”) best suited to their preferences. Our subscription packages (including Fubo Essential, Pro, Elite, and others) boast a broad mix of top Nielsen-ranked channels across sports, news, and entertainment. Our offering sits on a proprietary technology platform built specifically for live TV and sports viewership, leveraging our first-party data. This enables us to consistently introduce new features and functionalities. Unlike video on demand ("VOD")-only services, live TV streaming demands sophisticated infrastructure due to the nuances of regularly refreshing live programming. Notably, our video delivery platform caters to all major sports leagues and entertainment content owners. For example, Apple TV and certain Roku users can enjoy MultiView, allowing them to watch up to four live streams simultaneously. Moreover, we leverage data across the organization to acquire subscriber-preferred content, influence product design and strategy, boost subscriber engagement, and enhance the capabilities and performance of our advertising platform for partners.

Our direct-to-consumer model grants us further insight by capturing billions of data points monthly. This data set drives our continuous innovation, shaping our enhanced user experience, product and content strategy, and differentiated advertising approach. By analyzing this data, we can personalize live and on-demand content discovery in real-time, creating relevant suggestions for each subscriber.

Our growth strategy includes acquiring subscribers who are attracted to our sports offering and can find with us a compelling sports, news, and entertainment viewing alternative to a traditional Pay TV service. We actively engage those subscribers by providing a seamless Pay TV replacement through a personalized easy-to-use streaming product at competitive prices with greater convenience and flexibility than traditional Pay TV providers. We then monetize our audience through subscription fees and our digital advertising offering. In 2022, 2023, and 2024 the majority of our revenue was generated from the sale of subscription services and the sale of advertisements in the United States, though the Company also has operations in Canada, Spain and France.

Recent Developments — Business Combination

On January 6, 2025, the Company announced it had entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, The Walt Disney Company (“Disney”) and Hulu, LLC (“Hulu”), which contemplates, among other things, (i) Hulu contributing certain assets (the “HL Business Assets”) related to the business of negotiating and administering carriage agreements and similar contracts relating to and for the purpose of the retransmission, distribution, carriage, display or broadcast of any programming service, channel or network on the HL DMVPD Service (as defined below) to a newly formed entity to be jointly owned by Hulu and the Company (“Newco”), (ii) the Company undergoing an umbrella partnership C corporation reorganization (the “Up-C Reorganization”) and contributing its business to Newco in exchange for units in Newco (“Newco Units”) such that, after giving effect to such contribution, Hulu will hold a number of Newco Units representing, in the aggregate, a 70% economic interest in Newco and the Company will hold a number of Newco Units representing, in the aggregate, a 30% economic interest in Newco, and (iii) the Company issuing to Hulu shares of a newly created vote-only class of the Company’s common stock (“Class B Common Stock”) representing, in the aggregate, a 70% voting interest in the Company (calculated on a fully-diluted basis) (the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, collectively, the “Business Combination). The HL Business Assets will include certain carriage agreements, rights under joint subscription agreements and related data and information about its subscribers, advertising or sponsorship agreements exclusively related to Hulu’s linear multi-channel subscription video programming distribution service component of the offering known as “Hulu + Live TV” as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement and operated by Hulu (such service, the “HL DMVPD Service”), all other assets (including intellectual property) exclusively related to the HL DMVPD Service and all intellectual property constituting the “Live TV” brand.

Upon the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), our Board of Directors will initially be comprised of nine members, who will be designated as follows: (i) five designated by Hulu, (ii) two designated by the members of our Board as of immediately prior to the Closing and who (x) are reasonably acceptable to Hulu and (y) qualify as independent, (iii) one designated by Hulu and who qualifies as independent and (iv) our CEO. Following the Closing, the Company will be a “controlled company” for purposes of NYSE listing rules and will elect to be exempt from certain corporate governance requirements available to “controlled companies”. Completion of the Business Combination is subject to certain closing conditions specified in the Business Combination Agreement, including (i) the approval of the Business Combination Agreement, the Fubo Issuance and the Fubo Conversion, each as defined in the Business Combination Agreement, (including a plan of conversion and a certificate of incorporation of Fubo) by the Company’s shareholders, (ii) the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the clearance or obtainment of applicable consents of any specified governmental entity required to be obtained with respect to the Business Combination under the Business Combination Agreement; (iii) no enactment, issuance, promulgation or grant of any law or order, as applicable, by any governmental entity that is in effect and that has the effect of making the Business Combination illegal or prohibiting or otherwise preventing the consummation of the Business Combination, (iv) completion of the Hulu Reorganization and the Fubo Reorganization, each as defined in the Business Combination Agreement, in each case, in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement and the documents contemplated therein, (v) the acceptance of the Delaware Certificate of Conversion and Certificate of Incorporation of Fubo by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the acceptance of the Florida Articles of Conversion by the Florida Department of State, (vi) the accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement, subject to certain customary materiality standards set forth in the Business Combination Agreement and the delivery by each party to the other party of a certificate certifying the same, (vii) compliance by each party, in all material respects, with its applicable pre-Closing obligations under the Business Combination Agreement, and (viii) delivery by each party to the other party of certain other closing deliverables, including, but not limited to, the ancillary agreements to which it is a party.

Industry Overview

Streaming services have experienced rapid growth in adoption as consumers engage with streaming video and audio through a variety of devices, including connected TVs, mobile phones, and tablets. While traditional Pay TV still accounts for a meaningful share of TV viewing hours for U.S. households, the proportion is declining as customers continue cutting the cord. We believe consumers are increasingly favoring the superior customer experience, competitive pricing, and better value of streaming services.

Table of Contents

Sports and news content have been a key driver for Pay TV operators to retain and grow audiences. Historically most streaming subscription services primarily focused on entertainment content offerings, requiring sports fans to, until recently, remain tethered to the Pay TV ecosystem. This positions our offering well to provide a Pay TV replacement service via streaming that also features an enhanced live sports and news viewing experience.

Our Business Model

Our business motto is “come for the sports, stay for the entertainment.” This consists of leveraging sporting events to acquire subscribers at efficient acquisition costs, given the built-in demand for sports. We then leverage our technology and data to drive higher engagement and induce retentive behaviors such as watching content, favoriting channels, recording shows, and increasing discovery through our proprietary machine learning recommendations engine. We monetize our growing base of highly engaged subscribers by driving higher average revenue per user (“ARPU”).

We drive our business model with three core strategies:

•Grow our paid subscriber base

•Optimize our content portfolio, engagement and retention

•Increase monetization through subscription and advertising

Our Offerings

Subscribers

Our live TV streaming platform caters to sports, news, and entertainment fans. With flexible plans and optional "Attachments," users can customize their experience. The subscription packages boast over 100+ channels, including top Nielsen-rated networks, and dozens of sports, news, and entertainment options. They may also feature numerous Regional Sports Networks ("RSNs") for in-market games unavailable on national channels. Subscribers can further tailor their experience by adding premium channels and channel packages, or upgrading "Attachments" like Cloud DVR Plus for more storage and Family Share for additional simultaneous streams.

Advertisers

As cord cutting continues and traditional Pay TV viewers decline, advertisers are increasingly allocating their ad budgets to OTT streaming platforms to reach these audiences. We believe our sports-first, live TV streaming platform offers advertisers a growing and valuable live audience, deeply engaged with premium content and unreachable through traditional channels. Moreover, Fubo provides unskippable ad inventory within this high-quality engagement, maximizing exposure. Advertisers further benefit from our innovative ad formats, bridging the gap between traditional Pay TV and the advantages of digital advertising, including measurability, relevancy, and interactivity. We believe this combination delivers a differentiated advertising experience for brands and viewers alike.

Content Providers

Our platform allows content providers to monetize and distribute their content to our highly engaged audience, counteracting the shrinking viewership market share of Pay TV due to cord-cutting. By aggregating a diverse mix of content, we believe Fubo delivers a more compelling and engaging experience for subscribers than providers could offer alone.

Seasonality

We generate significantly higher levels of revenue and subscriber additions in the third and fourth quarters of the year. This seasonality is driven primarily by an influx of new subscribers at the start of the National Football League and college football. Our operating results may also be affected by the scheduling of major sporting events that do not occur annually, such as the World Cup or Olympic Games, or the cancellation or postponement of sporting events. In addition, we typically see the total number of subscribers on our platform decline from the fourth quarter of the previous year through the first and second quarter of the following year.

Our Growth Strategies

We believe streaming has begun to surpass traditional linear Pay TV in several key areas, including content choice, ease of access and use across devices, and cost savings to consumers. We remain committed to our goal of driving sustainable and profitable growth, and we believe we are well-positioned to do this by executing on the following strategies:

•Continue to efficiently grow our subscriber base: As of December 31, 2024, Fubo had approximately 1.7 million paid subscribers in the United States and Canada (“North America” or “NA”) and approximately 362,000 paid subscribers in Spain and France (“Rest of World” or “ROW”), compared to approximately 1.6 million in NA and approximately 406,000 in ROW as of December 31, 2023. We utilize a broad range of subscriber acquisition channels and tactics designed to optimize marketing spend and efficiently acquire and retain subscribers. Our Sales and Marketing expenses relative to total revenues was approximately 12.5% for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 15.1% for the year ended December 31, 2023. We continue to utilize and analyze the data we have collected to help us become more efficient with our marketing campaigns relative to spend.

•Enactment of ARPU expansion efforts: Our NA ARPU was $85.97 and $82.25 for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Our ROW ARPU was $7.49 and $6.82 for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We drive ARPU expansion through price-increases, attachment sales, and advertising revenue growth. Attachments, including channel package add-ons and interactive features, increase our margins by piggybacking on to our base offerings and not meaningfully increasing our cost basis while increasing revenues.

•Further investment in advertising sales team, technology and infrastructure: For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, Fubo’s advertising revenue was approximately $115.2 million and $115.4 million, respectively. Improvements to our content portfolio, user interface, navigational elements, content merchandising and targeting capabilities, combined with evolutions in customer behavior and growth in our subscriber base, have driven growth of our viewership over time. We are increasingly monetizing this engagement through advertising on the Fubo platform. We intend to continue leveraging our data and analytics to deliver relevant advertising while improving the ability of our advertisers to optimize and measure the results of their campaigns. We have also expanded our direct sales teams to increase the number of advertisers who leverage our platform and continue improving our fill-rates and Cost Per Thousands (“CPMs”).

•Continue to enhance our content portfolio with cost vigilance: Because we have a direct-to-consumer relationship with the ability to analyze all the content that our subscribers consume, we believe we can continue to drive better subscriber experiences. We plan to continue to optimize our content mix to best suit our subscribers’ interests by leveraging our deep understanding of our subscribers through the data captured on the platform, with the goal of expanding unit economics by balancing the aggregation of the best sports and entertainment programming with vigilance around content costs.

•Continue to invest in our technology and data capabilities: We believe our unique combination of technology and content sets us apart. We continue to investin building a scalable, automated infrastructure specifically designed to fuel subscriber acquisition, strategic content selection, and informed product decisions. We emphasize interactive features that empower users to transform from passive viewers to active participants. Moreover, we believe our integration of the Fubo and Molotov platforms into a single Unified Platform will yield significant efficiencies, and increased product development velocity and innovation.

•Expand Internationally: Outside of the United States, we currently operate in Canada, Spain and, through our acquisition of Molotov in 2021, France. We believe there remains a significant opportunity to expand internationally.

Intellectual Property

Our intellectual property is an essential and valuable element of our business. We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright and other intellectual property laws, confidentiality agreements and license agreements to protect and enforce our intellectual property rights. We also license certain third-party technology and intellectual property for use in conjunction with our products.

We believe that our continued success depends on hiring and retaining highly capable and innovative employees, especially as it relates to our engineering base. It is our policy that our employees and independent contractors involved in intellectual property development are required to sign agreements acknowledging that all inventions, trade secrets, works of authorship, developments and other processes generated by them on our behalf are our property and assigning to us any ownership that they may claim in those works. Despite our precautions and policies, it may be possible for third parties to obtain and use without consent intellectual property that we own or license. Unauthorized use of our intellectual property by third parties, and the expenses incurred in protecting our intellectual property rights, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Patents and Registered Designs

As of December 31, 2024, we had five issued U.S. utility patents, one U.S. utility patent application, five granted foreign utility patents, seventeen foreign utility patent applications, and eighteen granted foreign design registrations in three jurisdictions. The issued U.S. utility patents expire in 2038, the U.S. utility patent application, if granted, will expire in 2041, the granted foreign utility patents will expire on dates ranging from 2033 to 2038, the foreign utility patent applications, if granted, will expire on dates ranging from 2033 to 2041, and the foreign design registrations will expire on dates ranging from 2035 to 2045. Although we actively attempt to utilize patents to protect our technologies, we believe that none of our patents, individually or in the aggregate, are material to our business. We will continue to file and prosecute patent applications when appropriate to attempt to protect and enforce our rights in our proprietary technologies. However, there can be no assurance that our patent applications will be approved, that any patents issued will adequately protect our intellectual property, or that such patents will not be challenged by third parties or held to be invalid or unenforceable.

Trademarks

We also rely on several registered and unregistered trademarks to protect our brand and business. As of December 31, 2024, we had thirty-seven trademarks registered globally and two trademark applications. “fuboTV” is a registered trademark in the United States and the European Union ("EU").

Competition

The TV streaming market continues to grow and evolve as more viewers shift from traditional Pay TV to OTT streaming. There is significant competition in the live TV market for users, advertisers, and broadcasters. We principally compete with Pay TV operators, such as DirecTV, Comcast, Cox and Altice, along with other virtual multichannel video programming distributors (“vMVPDs”), such as YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, DirecTV Stream, Philo and Sling TV. We also compete to a lesser extent with network-operated direct-to-consumer streaming services, such as Peacock, Paramount+, and ESPN+.

We compete on various factors to acquire and retain subscribers. These factors include quality and breadth of content offerings, especially within live sports; features of our TV streaming platform; user experience and engagement; brand awareness in the market; and a competitive value proposition. Many users have multiple subscriptions to various Pay TV and streaming services and allocate time and money between them. Thus, while the presence of these competitors in the market has helped to boost consumer awareness of TV streaming, contributing to the growth of the overall market, their resources and brand recognition present substantial competitive challenges.

10

Table of Contents

We also face competition for advertisers, which in part depends on our ability to scale our subscriber base. Providing a large and engaged audience is crucial for advertisers on our live TV streaming platform. In the TV streaming market, the effectiveness of advertisements and return on investments play a pivotal role. As such, we are also competing for advertisers based on the return of ads compared to various other digital advertising platforms, including mobile and web. Additionally, advertisers continue to allocate a large portion of spend to advertise offline. Therefore, we also compete with traditional media platforms such as traditional linear Pay TV and radio. We are increasingly leveraging our data and analytics capabilities to optimize advertisements for both users and advertisers. We need to continue to maintain an appropriate advertising inventory for the growing demand for ads on our platform.

Furthermore, we compete to attract and retain programmers. Our ability to license content from programmers is dependent on the scale of our user base as well as license terms.

Our People and Human Capital Management

Who We Are

We are an inclusive group of individuals, creatives, technologists, analysts and more. Some of us love sports, some binge the news, others prefer rom-coms. But we are united by a common mission — building the world’s leading global live TV streaming platform with the greatest breadth of premium content and interactivity.

As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately 590 employees globally, of which approximately 400 were located in North America and approximately 190 were located in Europe and India. Additionally, we rely on independent contractors and temporary personnel to supplement our workforce from time to time. We have not experienced any work stoppages, and we consider our relationship with our employees to be good. None of our U.S. or Indian employees is represented by a labor union or covered by a collective bargaining agreement. Our French employees are covered by the national collective bargaining agreement for the consulting and engineering activities in France.

Our Values and Talent Development

We view our employees as central to the success of our business and achieving our mission. We onboard new employees with training programs on our values, certain aspects of our business, and important policies, including our Code of Business Conduct. We also value ongoing development and continuous learning, and strive to support and provide enriching opportunities to our employees. Throughout the year we monitor employee engagement and provide periodic training and informational sessions on our business and policies, including security awareness, through a variety of forums, including all-hands meetings, senior leadership fireside chats and company-wide newsletters. Management uses input collected during these sessions to ensure ongoing awareness of employees’ needs and improve activities aimed to serve our customers. Collectively through these initiatives we aim to foster engagement and transparency with our employees, and to keep our employees well-informed on our business goals to enhance alignment, collaboration, and a shared sense of purpose among our employees.

Inclusion and Belonging

We prioritize building an inclusive, equitable, and empowered team representing a mix of backgrounds, industries, skills, and levels of experience. We believe the different backgrounds, traditions, views and talents each of our employees brings to Fubo enrich the company as a whole and will help us achieve executional excellence. In 2020, we formed a council comprised of different team members throughout various levels of the organization, who recommend and help organize and celebrate both engagement and inclusion initiatives within the company. We are focused on creating and maintaining a workplace free from discrimination or harassment on the basis of race, religion, religious creed, color, ethnic or national origin, ancestry, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, military service or veteran status, disability, medical condition, or any other status protected by applicable law. Our policies and compliance trainings prohibit such workplace discrimination and harassment, and all our employees are expected to exhibit and promote honest, ethical, and respectful conduct in the workplace.

Compensation and Benefits

Our compensation programs and benefits packages are designed to attract, retain and motivate exceptional talent who possess the skills necessary to drive our business objectives, assist in the achievement of our strategic goals and create long-term value for our shareholders. We offer employees compensation packages designed to be competitive that include base salary, and, depending on the role, business function and geographic market, performance-based cash bonuses, commissions, long-term incentive equity, and performance-based equity. We are proud that we have granted equity to the majority of our employees across all levels of the organization as part of their total compensation package. We believe this fosters a stronger sense of ownership and further aligns our employees’ interests with the interest of our shareholders. In addition to our compensation programs, we offer a variety of benefits to our employees, which can include 401(k) plan with matching, health (medical, dental and vision) insurance, life insurance, paid time off, paid parental leave, a referral bonus program and company-sponsored short term and long term disability. We believe that a competitive compensation and benefits program with both short-term and long-term award opportunities, including awards tied to the achievement of meaningful performance metrics, allows us to align employees with shareholder interests.

Health and Safety

We are committed to the health and safety of our employees, and continue to adapt to ever-changing workplace and workforce dynamics. The majority of our employees have adopted a hybrid work schedule (consisting of both in-person work and working from home); however some of our employees continue to work remotely full-time, and, in the long term, we expect some personnel to continue to do so on a regular basis. We are focused on building capabilities to support a variety of work styles where individuals, teams, and our business can be successful. We have invested in programs that help support our employees’ day-to-day wellness needs and goals including access to professional counselors, health coaching and advocacy services. We also maintain a whistleblower hotline through which employees can report health and safety risks.

Government Regulation

Our business and our devices and platform are subject to numerous domestic and foreign laws and regulations covering a wide variety of subject matters. These include general business regulations and laws, as well as regulations and laws specific to providers of Internet-delivered streaming services and Internet-connected devices. New or modified laws and regulations in these areas may have an adverse effect on our business. The costs of compliance with these laws and regulations are high and are likely to increase in the future. We anticipate that several jurisdictions may, over time, impose greater financial and regulatory obligations on us. If we fail to comply with these laws and regulations, we may be subject to significant liabilities and other penalties. Additionally, compliance with these laws and regulations could, individually or in the aggregate, increase our cost of doing business, impact our competitive position relative to our peers, and otherwise have an adverse impact on our operating results. For additional information about the impact of government regulations on our business, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Regulation” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Privacy, Consumer Protection and Cybersecurity” in Part I, Item 1A in this Annual Report.

Data Protection and Privacy

We are subject to various laws and regulations covering the collection, use, access to, confidentiality and security of health-related and other personal information, and additional laws could apply in the future to our operations or the operations of our partners. These laws and regulations, and their application to our business, are increasingly shifting and evolving. In the United States, numerous federal and state laws and regulations, including data breach notification laws, health information privacy and security laws and consumer protection laws and regulations govern the collection, use, disclosure, and protection of health-related and other personal information. In addition, certain foreign laws govern the privacy and security of personal data, including health-related data. Any actual or perceived failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in investigations, claims and proceedings, regulatory fines or significant civil and/or criminal penalties, damages for breach of contract, or orders that require us to change our business practices, including the way we process data.

For additional information about the impact of data protection and privacy regulations on our business, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Privacy, Consumer Protection and Cybersecurity” in Part I, Item 1A in this Annual Report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information in this Annual Report, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes and the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Our business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects could also be harmed by risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently do not believe are material. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects could be adversely affected. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.

This Annual Report also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Forward-Looking Statements.” Our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth below.

Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Capital Needs

We have incurred operating losses in the past, expect to incur operating losses in the future and may never achieve or maintain profitability.

We have incurred losses since inception. Our net loss on continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $177.8 million. We expect that expanding our operations and pursuing growth opportunities will cause our future operating expenses to increase. If our revenue does not grow at a greater rate than our operating expenses, we will not be able to achieve and maintain profitability. A number of our operating expenses, including expenses related to streaming content obligations, are fixed. If we are not able to either reduce these fixed obligations or other expenses or maintain or grow our revenue, our near-term operating losses may increase. Additionally, we may encounter unforeseen operating or legal expenses, difficulties, complications, delays and other factors, including, without limitation, in connection with the Business Combination, that may result in losses in future periods. If our expenses exceed our revenue, we may never achieve or maintain profitability and our business may be harmed.

We may require additional capital to meet our financial obligations and support planned business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms or at all.

We have made, and intend in the future to make, significant investments to support planned business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new features or enhance our existing platform, products and services, increase marketing efforts to acquire and retain subscribers, expand into additional markets around the world, improve our operating infrastructure or merge with or acquire complementary businesses, personnel and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, including pursuant to our shelf registration statements on Form S-3, our then existing shareholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing we secure, including the senior unsecured term loan available to us on January 5, 2026 and described elsewhere in this Annual Report (the “Facility”), could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. If we were to violate the restrictive covenants contained in the indenture governing our 2029 Convertible Notes (the “2029 notes indenture”) or in any future document governing our indebtedness, we could incur penalties, increased expenses and an acceleration of the payment terms of our outstanding debt, which could in turn harm our business. In addition, if the Business Combination is completed as contemplated as of the date hereof and as described elsewhere in this Annual Report, we will be required to offer to repurchase any of our outstanding 3.25% senior convertible notes due 2026 (the “2026 Convertible Notes”) and convertible senior secured notes due 2029 (the “2029 Convertible Notes”) at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. We may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to make repurchases of 2026 Convertible Notes or 2029 Convertible Notes surrendered therefor.

14

Table of Contents

We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all, due to unfavorable market conditions, including rising interest rates, or otherwise. In addition, the 2029 notes indenture, and the exchange agreement entered into in connection with the issuance of the 2029 Convertible Notes (the “Exchange Agreement”), restrict our ability to incur certain indebtedness and issue certain equity securities. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be significantly impaired, and our business may be harmed.

In addition, our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are maintained at financial institutions in amounts that exceed federally insured limits. In the event of failure of any of the financial institutions where we maintain our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, there can be no assurance that we will be able to access uninsured funds in a timely manner or at all, and we may be obligated to seek alternative sources of liquidity.

Our revenue is subject to seasonality, and if subscriber behavior during certain seasons falls below our expectations, our business may be harmed.

Seasonal variations in subscriber and marketing behavior significantly affect our business. We have previously experienced, and expect to continue to experience, effects of seasonal trends in subscriber behavior due to the seasonal nature of sports. We generate significantly higher levels of revenue and subscriber additions in the third and fourth quarters of the year, driven primarily by sports leagues, especially the National Football League and college football. Our operating results may also be affected by the scheduling of major sporting events that do not occur annually, such as the World Cup or Olympic Games, or the cancellation or postponement of sporting events. We also typically experience higher advertising sales during the fourth quarter of each calendar year due to greater advertiser demand during the holiday season, but, on the other hand, also typically incur greater marketing expenses as we attempt to attract new subscribers to our platform. In addition, expenditures by advertisers tend to be cyclical and are often discretionary in nature, reflecting overall economic conditions, the economic prospects of specific advertisers or industries, budgeting constraints and buying patterns, and a variety of other factors, many of which are outside our control.

Accordingly, given the seasonal nature of our business, accurate forecasting is critical to our operations. We anticipate that this seasonal impact on revenue is likely to continue, and any shortfall in expected revenue due to macroeconomic conditions, a decline in the effectiveness of our promotional activities, actions by our competitors, or for any other reason, would cause our results of operations to suffer significantly. For example, inflationary cost pressures and potential recession indicators have negatively impacted the global economy. If these factors continue, or worsen, our revenue may be materially impacted. A substantial portion of our expenses are personnel-related and include salaries, stock-based compensation and benefits that are not seasonal in nature. Accordingly, in the event of a revenue shortfall, we would be unable to mitigate the negative impact on margins, at least in the short term, and our business would be harmed.

We might not be able to utilize a significant portion of our net operating loss carryforwards.

As of December 31, 2024, we had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1,458.4 million, a portion of which will expire at various dates if not used prior to such dates. Under legislation enacted in 2017, informally titled the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, as modified by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act, federal net operating losses incurred in 2018 and in future years may be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of such federal net operating losses in tax years beginning after December 31, 2020 is limited. Other limitations may apply for state tax purposes.

In addition, under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and corresponding provisions of state law, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” which is generally defined as a greater than 50% change, by value, in its equity ownership over a three-year period, the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change net operating loss carryforwards to offset its post-change income may be limited. We have experienced ownership changes in the past, and therefore a portion of our net operating loss carryforwards are subject to an annual limitation under Section 382 of the Code. In addition, we may experience an ownership change for purposes of Section 382 of the Code with the Business Combination. Even if the Business Combination is not consummated, we may experience ownership changes in the future as a result of subsequent changes in our stock ownership, including as a result of conversions of the 2026 Convertible Notes and 2029 Convertible Notes, some of which may be outside of our control. A past or future ownership change that materially limits our ability to use our historical net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may harm our future operating results by effectively increasing our future tax obligations.

15

Table of Contents

Our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected if we do not effectively manage our current or future debt.

As of December 31, 2024, we had $330.3 million of outstanding indebtedness on a consolidated basis which included $144.8 million of 2026 Convertible Notes, $177.5 million of 2029 Convertible Notes, and other notes outstanding with an aggregate principal of approximately $8.1 million. Additionally, the terms of the 2029 notes indenture allow for interest payments on the 2029 Convertible Notes to be paid in kind. If we choose to pay interest on the 2029 Convertible Notes in kind, the aggregate principal amount of 2029 Convertible Notes outstanding will increase.

Our obligations related to our outstanding or any future indebtedness could adversely affect our ability to take advantage of corporate opportunities, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations, including, but not limited to, the following:

•our ability to obtain any necessary financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, or other purposes may be limited, or financing may be unavailable;

•a substantial portion of our cash flows must be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness and other obligations and will not be available for use in our business;

•lack of liquidity could limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the markets in which we operate;

•our debt obligations will make us more vulnerable to changes in general economic conditions and/or a downturn in our business, thereby making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations; and

•if we fail to make required debt payments or to comply with other covenants in our debt agreements, we would be in default under the terms of these agreements, which could permit our creditors to accelerate repayment of the debt and could cause cross-defaults under other debt agreements. For example, our failure to repay or refinance our 2026 Convertible Notes upon or prior to maturity may trigger an event of default under our 2029 Convertible Notes.

We may also incur additional indebtedness to meet future financing needs, including pursuant to the Facility. If we incur any additional debt, the related risks that we and our subsidiaries face could intensify.

Finally, we may in the future be in non-compliance with the terms of certain of our other debt instruments. To the extent we are in non-compliance with the terms of such debt instruments, we may be required to make payments to the holders of such instruments, those holders may be entitled to the issuance of stock by us, and the holders of such stock may be entitled to registration or other investor rights.

16

Table of Contents

Servicing our indebtedness will require a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to pay our substantial indebtedness.

Our ability to make scheduled payments of the principal and interest when due, or to refinance our borrowings under our debt agreements, will depend on our future performance and our ability to raise further equity or debt financing, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to both (i) satisfy our existing and future obligations to our creditors and (ii) allow us to make necessary capital expenditures. If we are unable to generate such cash flow or raise further financing, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as reducing or delaying investments or capital expenditures, selling assets, refinancing or obtaining additional capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. Additionally, the terms of the 2029 notes indenture allow for interest payments on the 2029 Convertible Notes to be paid-in-kind. If we choose to pay interest on the 2029 Convertible Notes in kind, the aggregate principal amount of 2029 Convertible Notes outstanding will increase. We may need or desire to repay, refinance, restructure or defease our existing indebtedness, including prior to its maturity, in one or more transactions, which may involve the payment of cash or the issuance of additional debt or equity securities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Our ability to refinance existing or future indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. In addition, the terms of the 2029 notes indenture and the Exchange Agreement restrict our ability to incur certain indebtedness and issue certain equity securities. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our current or future debt agreements, including the Facility.

Our operating results may fluctuate, which makes our results difficult to predict.

Our revenue and operating results could vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year because of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control and may not fully reflect the underlying performance of our business. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful. In addition to other risk factors discussed herein, factors that may contribute to the variability of our quarterly and annual results include:

•our ability to retain and grow our subscriber base, as well as increase engagement among new and existing subscribers;

•our ability to maintain effective pricing practices, in response to the competitive markets in which we operate or other macroeconomic factors, such as inflation or increased taxes;

•the addition or loss of popular content or channels, including our ability to enter into new content deals or negotiate renewals with our content providers on terms that are favorable to us, or at all;

•our ability to effectively manage our growth;

•our ability to attract and retain existing advertisers;

•seasonal, cyclical or other shifts in revenue and expenses;

•our revenue mix;

•the entrance of new competitors or competitive products or services, whether by established or new companies;

•our ability to keep pace with changes in technology and our competitors, and the timing of the launch of new or updated products, content or features;

•interruptions in service, whether or not we are responsible for such interruptions, and any related impact on our reputation;

•our ability to pursue and appropriately time our entry into new geographic or content markets and, if pursued, our management of this expansion;

•costs associated with litigation, including antitrust and intellectual property infringement litigation;

17

Table of Contents

•the impact of general economic conditions on our revenue and expenses; and

•changes in regulations affecting our business.

This variability makes it difficult to forecast our future results with precision and to assess accurately whether increases or decreases are likely to cause quarterly or annual results to exceed or fall short of previously issued guidance. While we assess our quarterly and annual guidance and update such guidance when we think it is appropriate, unanticipated future volatility can cause actual results to vary significantly from our guidance, even where that guidance reflects a range of possible results.

If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our business, operating results, and financial condition may suffer.

We have experienced significant growth rates in both the number of subscribers on our platform and revenue over the last few years. As we grow larger and increase our subscriber base and usage, we expect it will become increasingly difficult to maintain the rate of growth we have experienced.

In addition, our growth to date has placed significant demands on our management and on our operational and financial infrastructure, and we expect these trends to continue in connection with further growth. In order to attain and maintain profitability, we will need to recruit, integrate, and retain skilled and experienced personnel who can demonstrate our value proposition to subscribers, advertisers, and business partners and who can increase the monetization of our platform. Continued growth could also strain our ability to maintain reliable service levels for our customers, effectively monetize the content streamed, develop and improve our operational and financial controls, and recruit, train, and retain highly skilled personnel. If our systems do not evolve to meet the increased demands placed on us by an increasing number of advertisers, we also may be unable to meet our obligations under advertising agreements with respect to the delivery of advertising or other performance obligations. As our operations grow in size, scope, and complexity, we will need to improve and upgrade our systems and infrastructure, which will require significant expenditures and allocation of valuable technical and management resources. If we fail to maintain efficiency and allocate limited resources effectively in our organization as it grows, our business, operating results, and financial condition may suffer.

We have been expanding our operations internationally, and as our international offering evolves, we are managing and adjusting our business to address varied content offerings, consumer customs and practices, in particular those dealing with e-commerce and streaming video, as well as differing legal and regulatory environments.

Risks Relating to the Business Combination

The Business Combination may not be completed on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all, and failure to complete the Business Combination may result in material adverse consequences to Fubo’s business and operations.

The Business Combination is subject to several closing conditions, including (i) the approval of the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below) and other proposals related to the Business Combination by Fubo’s shareholders, (ii) the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the clearance or obtainment of applicable consents of any specified governmental entity required to be obtained with respect to the Business Combination under the Business Combination Agreement, (iii) no enactment, issuance, promulgation or grant of any law or order, as applicable, by any governmental entity that is in effect and that has the effect of making the Business Combination illegal or prohibiting or otherwise preventing the consummation of the Business Combination, (iv) completion of certain internal reorganization transactions by Hulu, LLC ("Hulu") and Fubo, in each case, in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement and the documents contemplated therein, (v) the acceptance of documents related to the conversion of Fubo from a Florida corporation to a Delaware corporation by the Secretary of State of the State of Florida and the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, (vi) the accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement, subject to certain customary materiality standards set forth in the Business Combination Agreement and the delivery by each party to the other party of a certificate certifying the same, (vii) compliance by each party, in all material respects, with its applicable obligations under the Business Combination Agreement prior to the closing of the Business Combination (the "Closing"), and (viii) delivery by each party to the other party of certain other closing deliverables, as specified in the Business Combination Agreement.

18

Table of Contents

The parties have not yet obtained all regulatory clearances, consents and approvals required to complete the Business Combination. Governmental or regulatory agencies could still seek to block or challenge the Business Combination or could impose restrictions they deem necessary or desirable in the public interest as a condition to approving the Business Combination. If these approvals are not received, then neither Fubo nor The Walt Disney Company ("Disney") will be obligated to complete the Business Combination. If the approvals could be received, but the applicable regulatory agency requires Hulu to (i) (a) sell, divest, license or hold separate any rights, equity interests or other assets or any portion of any business of Hulu or any of its respective affiliates or (b) agree to other restrictions or limitations on any business, operations, assets, properties or contractual freedoms of any businesses or operations of Hulu or its respective affiliates, or (ii) agree to sell, divest, license or hold separate any rights, equity interests or other assets or any portion of any business of Fubo or its subsidiaries, Hulu is not required to undertake such action and neither Hulu nor Fubo would be obligated to complete the Business Combination.

If Fubo’s shareholders do not approve the Business Combination Agreement or if the Business Combination is not completed for any other reason, Fubo would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

•Fubo and its shareholders would not realize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, including any anticipated synergies from combining Hulu Live and Fubo;

•Fubo may be required to pay a $50 million termination fee following termination of the Business Combination Agreement in certain circumstances, including if Fubo terminates the Business Combination Agreement to accept a superior acquisition proposal or if Hulu terminates the Business Combination Agreement because our Board of Directors effected certain changes to its recommendation to Fubo shareholders; and

•the trading price of Fubo common stock may experience increased volatility or decrease to the extent that the current market prices reflect a market assumption that the Business Combination will be completed.

The occurrence of any of these events individually or in combination could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations of Fubo or the trading price of Fubo common stock. Fubo is also exposed to general competitive pressures and risks, which may be increased if the Business Combination is not completed.

Fubo and Hulu will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the Business Combination is pending that could adversely affect either of them or, in the event the Business Combination is completed, Newco.

Uncertainty about the effect of the Business Combination on employees, business partners and customers may have an adverse effect on (i) either of Fubo or Hulu, regardless of whether the Business Combination is eventually completed, and, (ii) in the event the Business Combination is completed, on Newco (as defined below). These uncertainties may impair Fubo’s and Hulu’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the Business Combination is completed, or the Business Combination Agreement is terminated, and for a period of time thereafter, and could cause customers, business partners and others that deal with Fubo or Hulu to seek to change existing business relationships with Fubo or Hulu.

The pursuit of the Business Combination and the preparation for the integration of Fubo and Hulu Live have placed, and will continue to place, a significant burden on the management and internal resources of both Fubo and Hulu. There is a significant degree of difficulty and management distraction inherent in the process of closing the Business Combination and integrating Fubo and Hulu, which could cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the activities of each company’s existing businesses, regardless of whether the Business Combination is eventually completed. Before and immediately following the Closing, the management teams of Fubo and Hulu will be required to devote considerable amounts of time to this integration process, which will decrease the time they will have to manage their respective existing businesses, service existing business partners, attract new customers and develop new products, technologies, services or strategies. One potential consequence of such distractions could be the failure of management to realize other opportunities that could be beneficial to Fubo or Hulu, respectively. If Fubo’s or Hulu’s senior management is not able to effectively manage the process leading up to and immediately following Closing, or if any significant business activities are interrupted as a result of the integration process, the business of Fubo, Hulu or, in the event the Business Combination is completed, Newco could suffer.

19

Table of Contents

Employee retention and recruitment may also be challenging for Fubo and Hulu during the pendency of the Business Combination, as employees and prospective employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with Newco. For each of Fubo and Hulu, the departure of existing key employees or the failure of potential key employees to continue employment with Newco or one of its subsidiaries, despite Fubo’s and Hulu’s retention and recruiting efforts, could have a material adverse impact on Fubo’s and Hulu’s business, financial condition and operating results, regardless of whether the Business Combination is eventually completed and, in the event the Business Combination is completed, could have a material adverse impact on Newco’s business, financial condition and operating results.

In addition, the Business Combination Agreement restricts Fubo from making certain acquisitions, entering into certain partnerships and joint ventures and taking certain other specified actions without the consent of Hulu until the Business Combination is consummated, or the Business Combination Agreement is terminated. These restrictions may prevent Fubo from pursuing otherwise attractive business opportunities and making other changes to its business before completion of the Business Combination or termination of the Business Combination Agreement.

The Business Combination Agreement contains provisions that may discourage other companies from trying to acquire Fubo.

The Business Combination Agreement contains provisions that may discourage third parties from submitting business combination proposals to Fubo that might result in greater value to Fubo shareholders than the Business Combination. The Business Combination Agreement generally prohibits Fubo from soliciting any competing acquisition proposal. In addition, if the Business Combination Agreement is terminated by Fubo or Hulu in circumstances that obligate Fubo to pay a termination fee to Hulu, Fubo’s financial condition may be adversely affected as a result of the payment of the termination fee, which might deter third parties from proposing alternative business combination proposals.

Fubo has incurred, and will continue to incur, direct and indirect costs as a result of the Business Combination.

Fubo has incurred, and will continue to incur, significant costs and expenses, including regulatory costs, fees for professional services, and other transaction costs in connection with the Business Combination. There are a number of factors beyond Fubo’s control that could affect the total amount or the timing of these costs and expenses. Many of these fees and costs will be payable by us even if the Business Combination is not completed and may relate to activities that we would not have undertaken other than to complete the Business Combination.

Litigation challenging the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination may prevent the Business Combination from being consummated within the expected timeframe or at all.

Lawsuits may be filed against Fubo, our Board of Directors or the other parties to the Business Combination Agreement challenging the Business Combination Agreement or the Business Combination or making other claims in connection therewith. Such lawsuits may be brought by our purported shareholders and may seek, among other things, to enjoin consummation of the Business Combination. One of the conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination is that there is no enactment, issuance, promulgation or grant of any law or order, as applicable, by any governmental entity that is in effect and that has the effect of making the Business Combination illegal or prohibiting or otherwise preventing the consummation of the Business Combination. As such, if the plaintiffs in such potential lawsuits are successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting the defendants from completing the Business Combination on the agreed upon terms, then such injunction may prevent the Business Combination from becoming effective, or from becoming effective within the expected timeframe.

Our principal asset after the completion of the Business Combination will be our interest in Newco, and, accordingly, we will depend on distributions from Newco to pay our taxes and expenses, including payments under the contemplated Tax Receivables Agreement, and to pay dividends. Newco’s ability to make such distributions may be subject to various limitations and restrictions.

Upon the completion of the Business Combination, we will be a holding company and will have no material assets other than our ownership of Newco Units. As such, we will have no independent means of generating revenue or cash flow, and our ability to pay our taxes and operating expenses or declare and pay dividends in the future will be dependent upon the financial results and cash flows of Newco and its subsidiaries and distributions we receive from Newco. Newco and its subsidiaries may not generate sufficient cash flow to distribute funds to us and applicable state law and contractual restrictions, including negative covenants in our debt instruments, may not permit such distributions.

20

Table of Contents

We anticipate that Newco will be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, as such, will not be subject to any entity-level U.S. federal income tax. Instead, taxable income will be allocated to us and Hulu (as the holders of Newco Units). Accordingly, we will incur income taxes on our allocable share of any net taxable income of Newco. Under the terms of the contemplated Newco operating agreement (the “Newco Operating Agreement”), as disclosed in the Business Combination Agreement, Newco will be obligated, subject to various limitations and restrictions, including with respect to any applicable credit agreements, to make tax distributions to us and Hulu (as the holders of Newco Units). In addition to tax expenses, we will also incur expenses related to our operations, including payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement contemplated under the Business Combination Agreement (the “Tax Receivables Agreement”), which we expect could be significant.

We intend, as its managing member, to cause Newco to make (i) pro rata tax distributions to us and Hulu (as the holders of Newco Units) in an amount sufficient to fund all or part of our tax obligations in respect of taxable income allocated to us and to cover our tax obligations, including payments due under the Tax Receivables Agreement, and (ii) distributions to us to pay our operating expenses. However, Newco’s ability to make such distributions may be subject to various limitations and restrictions, such as restrictions on distributions that would either violate any contract or agreement to which Newco is then a party, including debt agreements, or any applicable law, or that would have the effect of rendering Newco insolvent. If we do not have sufficient funds to pay our tax or other liabilities or to fund our operations, we may have to borrow funds, which could materially adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition and subject us to various restrictions imposed by any such lenders. To the extent that we are unable to make timely payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement for any reason, such payments generally will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid.

Under the Newco Operating Agreement, we intend to cause Newco, from time to time, to make pro rata distributions in cash to us and Hulu (as the holders of Newco Units) in amounts at least sufficient to cover the taxes imposed on our allocable shares of net taxable income of Newco. While tax distributions are intended to be set according to our tax liabilities (including the Tax Receivable Agreement), it is possible that as a result of (i) potential differences in the amount of net taxable income allocable to us and Hulu and (ii) certain tax benefits that we anticipate from (a) future purchases or redemptions of Newco Units from Hulu and (b) payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement, these cash distributions may be in amounts that exceed our actual tax liabilities with respect to the relevant taxable year, including our obligations under the Tax Receivables Agreement. In such case, our board of directors will determine the appropriate uses for any such excess cash, which may include, among other uses, the payment of obligations under the Tax Receivables Agreement and the payment of other expenses. We will have no obligation to distribute such cash (or other available cash) to our stockholders. No adjustments to the exchange ratio for Newco Units and corresponding shares of the Company’s publicly traded common stock following the completion of the Business Combination (“Class A Common Stock”) will be made as a result of any cash distribution by us or any retention of cash by us, and in any event the ratio will remain one-to-one. To the extent we do not distribute such excess cash as dividends on our stock we may take other actions with respect to such excess cash, for example, holding such excess cash, or lending it (or a portion thereof) to Newco, which may result in shares of our Class A Common Stock increasing in value relative to the value of Newco Units. Following such loan or a contribution of such excess cash to Newco, we may, but are not required to, make an adjustment to the outstanding number of Newco Units held by Hulu. In the absence of such adjustment, Hulu may benefit from any value attributable to such cash and/or loan balances if it acquires shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for its Newco Units, notwithstanding that Hulu may have participated previously as a holder of Newco Units in distributions that resulted in such excess cash balances.

The Tax Receivables Agreement with Hulu will require us to make cash payments to Hulu in respect of certain tax benefits to which we may become entitled, and we expect that the payments we will be required to make will be substantial.

Upon the closing of the Business Combination, we will enter into a Tax Receivables Agreement with Newco and Hulu. Under the Tax Receivables Agreement, we will be required to make cash payments to Hulu for certain tax benefits realized (or, in connection with an acceleration upon our election to terminate the Tax Receivables Agreement, deemed realized) by us. We will be generally obligated to pay Hulu a percentage of the benefit realized by us from our use of certain historic net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 70% and (ii) Hulu’s ownership percentage of Newco as of the date the NOL is utilized. We will also be generally obligated to pay Hulu 70% of the tax benefit as a result of (i) tax basis adjustments expected to be obtained by us resulting from (a) any future redemptions or exchanges of Newco Units from Hulu, (b) certain distributions (or deemed distributions) by Newco, and (c) payments made under the Tax Receivables Agreement. and (ii) deductions attributable to imputed interest and other payments of interest by us pursuant to the Tax Receivables Agreement. We will depend on cash distributions from Newco to make payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement. Any payments made by us to Hulu under the Tax Receivables Agreement will generally reduce the amount of cash that might have otherwise been available to us. Due to the uncertainty of various factors, we cannot precisely quantify the likely tax benefits we will realize as a result of the purchase of Newco Units and Class A Common Stock exchanges, and the resulting amounts we are likely to pay out to Hulu pursuant to the Tax Receivables Agreement; however, we estimate that such payments will be substantial.

The payment obligation under the Tax Receivables Agreement will be an obligation of the Company and not of Newco. Any payments made by us to Hulu under the Tax Receivables Agreement will not be available for reinvestment in our business and will generally reduce the amount of overall cash flow that might have otherwise been available to us. To the extent that we are unable to make timely payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement for any reason, such payments will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid by us. Payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement are not conditioned upon Hulu maintaining a continued ownership interest in Newco or us.

In addition, decisions we make in the course of running our business, such as with respect to mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes in control, may influence the timing and amount of payments made under the Tax Receivables Agreement. For example, the earlier disposition of assets following a redemption or exchange of Newco Units may accelerate the recognition of associated tax benefits for which we would be required to make payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement and increase the present value of such payments, and the disposition of assets before a redemption or exchange of Newco Units may increase the tax liability of Hulu without giving rise to any rights to receive payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement with respect to tax attributes associated with such assets.

The ability to generate tax assets covered by the Tax Receivables Agreement, and the actual use of any resulting tax benefits, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of redemptions or exchanges of Newco Units by, or purchases of Newco Units from, Hulu, the price of our Class A Common Stock at the time of the redemption, exchange or purchase; the extent to which such redemptions, exchanges or purchases are taxable or cause a limitation on our ability to utilize our net operating losses; the amount and timing of the taxable income allocated to us or otherwise generated by us in the future; the tax rates and laws then applicable and the portion of our payments under the Tax Receivables Agreement constituting imputed interest.

Risks Related to Our Relationships with Content Providers, Customers and Other Third Parties

The long-term nature of certain of our content commitments may limit our operating flexibility and could adversely affect our liquidity and results of operations.

In connection with licensing streaming content, we typically enter into multi-year agreements with content providers. Given the multiple-year duration, if subscriber acquisition and retention do not meet our expectations, our margins may be adversely impacted. In the past, we had long term programming deals that required minimum license guarantee payments and we failed to make certain of those minimum guarantee payments to certain key programmers. We currently do not have any material programming deals that require minimum license fees in the United States, however, to the extent we fail to make any minimum guarantee payments in the future, if applicable, we may lose access to such content.

We also enter into multi-year commitments for content that we produce, either directly or through third parties, including elements associated with these productions such as non-cancelable commitments under talent agreements. Payment terms for certain content commitments, such as content we directly produce, will typically require more up-front cash payments than other content licenses or arrangements whereby we do not fund the production of such content.

To the extent subscriber and/or revenue growth do not meet our expectations, our liquidity and results of operations could be adversely affected as a result of content commitments and payment requirements of certain agreements. In addition, the long-term nature of certain of our commitments may limit our flexibility in planning for or reacting to changes in our business and the market segments in which we operate. If we license and/or produce content that is not favorably received by consumers in a territory, or is unable to be shown in a territory, acquisition and retention may be adversely impacted and given the long-term and fixed cost nature of certain of our content commitments, as well as operational/technical costs tied to those commitments, we may not be able to adjust our content offering quickly and our results of operations may be adversely impacted.

Our results may be adversely affected if long-term content contracts are not renewed on sufficiently favorable terms.

We typically enter into long-term contracts for both the acquisition and the distribution of media content, including contracts for the acquisition of content rights for sporting events and other programs, as well as the distribution of content on connected TV platforms. As these contracts expire, we must renew or renegotiate the contracts, and if we are unable to renew them on acceptable terms, we may lose content rights or distribution rights. Even if these contracts are renewed, the cost of obtaining content rights may increase (or increase at faster rates than our historical experience). Moreover, our ability to renew these contracts on favorable terms may be affected by consolidation in the market for content distribution, the entrance of new participants in the market for distribution of content, the scale of our subscriber base and other factors. With respect to the acquisition of content rights, particularly sports content rights, the impact of these long-term contracts on our results over the term of the contracts depends on a number of factors, including the strength of advertising markets, subscription levels and rates for content, effectiveness of marketing efforts and the size of viewer audiences. There can be no assurance that revenues from content based on these rights will exceed the cost of the rights plus the other costs of producing and distributing the content.

If we fail to obtain or maintain popular content, we may fail to retain existing subscribers and attract new subscribers.

We have invested a significant amount of time to cultivate relationships with our content providers; however, such relationships may not continue to grow or yield further financial results. We must continuously maintain existing relationships and identify and establish new relationships with content providers to provide popular content. In order to remain competitive, we must consistently meet customer demand for popular streaming channels and content, particularly as we enter new markets, including international markets. If we are not successful in maintaining channels on our platform that attract and retain a significant number of subscribers, or if we are not able to do so in a cost-effective manner, our business will be harmed.

23

Table of Contents

We enter into agreements with our content providers, which have varying terms and conditions, including expiration dates. Upon expiration of these agreements, we are required to re-negotiate and renew them in order to continue providing content from these providers on our streaming platform. We have in the past been unable, and in the future may not be able, to reach a satisfactory agreement with certain content providers before our existing agreements have expired. If we are unable to renew such agreements on a timely basis on mutually agreeable terms, we may be required to temporarily or permanently remove certain channels from our streaming platform. The loss of such channels from our streaming platform for any period of time may harm our business, including as a result of customer confusion and/or dissatisfaction regarding the change in programming available on our platform. If we fail to maintain our relationships with the content providers on terms favorable to us, or at all, or if these content providers face problems in delivering their content across our platform, we may lose channel partners or subscribers and our business may be harmed.

If our efforts to attract and retain subscribers are not successful, our business will be adversely affected.

We have experienced significant subscriber growth over the past several years. Our ability to continue to attract subscribers will depend in part on our ability to consistently provide our subscribers with compelling content choices at competitive prices and effectively market our platform. Furthermore, the relative service levels, content offerings, pricing and related features of our competitors may adversely impact our ability to attract and retain subscribers. In addition, many of our subscribers re-join our platform or originate from word-of-mouth referrals from existing subscribers. If our efforts to satisfy our existing subscribers are not successful, we may not be able to attract subscribers, and as a result, our ability to maintain and/or grow our business will be adversely affected.

If consumers perceive a reduction in the value of our platform because, for example, we introduce new or adjust existing features, adjust pricing or platform offerings, or change the mix or packaging of content in a manner that is not favorably received by them, we may not be able to attract and retain subscribers. Subscribers cancel their subscription for many reasons, including due to a perception that they do not use the platform sufficiently, the need to cut household expenses, the availability of content is unsatisfactory, competitive services provide a better value or experience and customer service issues are not satisfactorily resolved. We must continually add new subscriptions both to replace canceled or expired subscriptions and to grow our business beyond our current subscription base. While we permit multiple subscribers within the same household to share a single account for non-commercial purposes, if account sharing is abused, our ability to add new subscribers may be hindered and our results of operations may be adversely impacted. If we do not grow as expected, given, in particular, that our content costs are largely contracted over several years, we may not be able to adjust our expenditures or increase our (per subscriber) revenues commensurate with the lowered growth rate such that our margins, liquidity and results of operations may be adversely impacted.

Our business, financial condition, and results of operations are also impacted by changes in the distribution strategy by the various content providers on our platform. This also impacts our ability to accurately forecast subscriber growth and revenue. Some of these changes may include the simulcasting and/or exclusive streaming of content, including sporting events that traditionally were only broadcasted on linear Pay TV, on direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) “plus services” at generally lower prices. If current or future content partners refuse to grant our subscribers access to stream certain channels or sporting events, or make their content available on their own DTC platform or our competitors’ platforms, whether exclusively or at more attractive pricing, this could adversely affect our ability to acquire and retain subscribers, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation. In addition, Regional Sports Networks (“RSNs”) have been a significant driver of subscription growth for us. Recently, certain RSNs have been experiencing financial challenges, which may impact their ability to maintain or enhance their sports programming and, in turn, could adversely affect our future subscriber growth and retention. If popular local sports programming, which has historically had limited carriage and distribution via RSNs, continues to shift to national broadcast networks and as a result continues to become more widely available on competitor platforms, including those that have not previously carried regionalized sports programming, it could adversely impact our ability to acquire this content, or to do so in cost-effective manner, or our ability to compete with current and new competitors.

If we are unable to successfully compete with current and new competitors in both retaining our existing subscribers and attracting new subscribers, our business could be adversely affected. Further, if excessive numbers of subscribers cancel our service, we may be required to incur significantly higher marketing expenditures than we currently anticipate replacing these subscribers with new subscribers.

Our agreements with certain distribution partners may contain parity obligations which limit our ability to pursue unique partnerships.

Our agreements with certain distribution partners contain obligations which require us to offer them the same technical features, content, pricing and packages that we make available to our other distribution partners and also require us to provide parity in the marketing of the availability of our application across our distribution partners. These parity obligations may limit our ability to pursue technological innovation or partnerships with individual distribution partners and may limit our capacity to negotiate favorable transactions with different partners or otherwise provide improved products and services. As our technical feature developments progress at varying speeds and at different times with different distribution partners, we currently offer some enhanced technical features on distribution platforms that we do not make available on other distribution platforms, which limits the quality and uniformity of our offering to all consumers across our distribution platforms. In addition, delays in technical developments across our distribution partners puts us at risk of breaching our parity obligations with such distribution platforms, which threatens the certainty of our agreements with distribution partners.

If we are unable to maintain an adequate supply of ad inventory on our platform, our business may be harmed.

We may fail to attract content providers that generate a sufficient quantity or quality of ad content hours on our platform and continue to grow our video ad inventory. Our business model depends on our ability to grow video ad inventory on our platform and sell it to advertisers. We grow ad inventory by adding and retaining content providers on our platform with ad-supported channels that we can monetize. Additionally, our ad inventory may be limited by restrictive ad requirements imposed by content providers. If we are unable to grow and maintain a sufficient supply of quality video advertising inventory at reasonable costs to keep up with demand, our business may be harmed.

We operate in a highly competitive industry, and we compete for advertising revenue with other internet streaming platforms and services, as well as traditional media, such as radio, broadcast, cable and satellite TV and satellite and Internet radio. We may not be successful in maintaining or improving our fill-rates or CPMs.

Our competitors offer content and other advertising mediums that may be more attractive to advertisers than our TV streaming platform. These competitors are often very large and have more advertising experience and financial resources than we do, which may adversely affect our ability to compete for advertisers and may result in lower revenue from advertising. If we are unable to increase our advertising revenue by, among other things, continuing to improve our platform’s data capabilities to further optimize and measure advertisers’ campaigns, increase our advertising inventory and expand our advertising sales team and programmatic capabilities, our business and our growth prospects may be harmed. We may not be able to compete effectively or adapt to any such changes or trends, which would harm our ability to grow our advertising revenue and harm our business.

If content providers refuse to license streaming content or other rights upon terms acceptable to us, our business could be adversely affected.

Our ability to provide our subscribers with content they can watch depends on content providers and other rights holders licensing rights, including distribution rights, to such content and certain related elements thereof, such as the public performance of music contained within the content we distribute. The license periods and the terms and conditions of such licenses vary, and we may be operating outside the terms of some of our current licenses. As content providers develop their own streaming services or elect to license content exclusively to third-party services, they may be unwilling to provide us with access to certain content, including popular series, movies or sporting events. If the content providers and other rights holders are not or are no longer willing or able to license us content upon terms acceptable to us, our ability to stream content to our subscribers may be adversely affected and/or our costs could increase. Because of these provisions as well as other actions we may take, content available through our service can be withdrawn on short notice. As competition increases, we see the cost of certain programming increase.

Further, if we do not maintain a compelling mix of content, our subscriber acquisition and retention may be adversely affected.

25

Table of Contents

Our content providers impose a number of restrictions on how we distribute and market our products and services, which can adversely affect our business.

A number of our major content partners impose significant restrictions on how we can distribute and market our products and services. For example, our content partners may prevent us from partnering with third party distributors and manufacturers to exploit new market opportunities or prevent us from bundling or reselling our products with third party products and services, or otherwise restrict how we might brand or market our products and services. Our content partners also impose restrictions on the content and composition of the packages we can make available to our customers and restrictions on how we might make some or all of our content available to customers (such as on a standalone basis, length of free trials/ previous or modified access or shorter form content). These restrictions may prevent us from responding dynamically to changing customer expectations or market demands or exploiting lucrative partnership opportunities. Content providers may also restrict the advertising that may be made available in connection with their content, including restrictions on the content and timing of such advertising, and restrictions on how advertising may be sold (such as a limit to sale on an aggregated, non-content specific basis only), which limits our opportunity to exploit potentially lucrative revenue streams.

Content providers may also provide their content only on a service that includes a minimum number of channels from other providers or require that we only provide their content in specific service tiers that include a specific mix of programming. Certain provisions in these agreements could become a challenge to comply with if we were to lose rights under agreements with key programmers.

In addition, our content partners generally impose requirements on us to treat them at least as favorably as other major providers in various ways, such as equal treatment with respect to content recommendations, displays on user interfaces, the marketing and promotion of content and streaming quality standards. This may materially restrict the functionality and performance of our technology, particularly our proprietary recommendation engine. This may also prevent us from offering commercial benefits to certain content providers, limiting our capacity to negotiate favorable transactions and overall limiting our ability to provide improved products and services.

Our agreements with content providers are complex, with various rights restrictions and favorability obligations which impose onerous compliance obligations.

The content rights granted to us are complex and multi-layered and differ substantially across different content and content providers. We may be able to make certain content available on a VOD basis or on certain devices but may be restricted from doing the same with other content, sometimes even with the same content provider. We are often not able to make certain content available at certain times or in certain geographical regions. In addition, our obligations to provide equality in the treatment between certain content providers require us to continuously monitor and assess treatment of content providers and content across our products and services.

These complex restrictions and requirements impose a significant compliance burden which is costly and challenging to maintain. A failure to maintain these obligations places us at risk of breaching our agreements with content providers, which could lead to loss of content and damages claims, which would have a negative impact on our products and service and our financial position.

Table of Contents

We face risks, such as unforeseen costs and potential liability in connection with content we acquire, produce, license and/or distribute through our service.

As a producer and distributor of content, we face potential liability for negligence, copyright and trademark infringement, or other claims based on the nature and content of materials that we acquire, produce, license and/or distribute. We also may face potential liability for content used in promoting our service, including marketing materials. We are devoting more resources toward the development, production, marketing and distribution of original programming, including Fubo Sports Network. We believe that original and exclusive programming can help differentiate our service from other offerings, enhance our brand and otherwise attract and retain subscribers. To the extent our programming does not meet our expectations, in particular, in terms of costs, viewing and popularity, our business, including our brand and results of operations may be adversely impacted. As we have expanded our original programming, we have become responsible for production costs and other expenses, such as ongoing guild payments. We also take on risks associated with production, such as completion and key talent risk. Further, negotiations or renewals related to entertainment industry collective bargaining agreements could negatively impact timing and costs associated with our productions. We contract with third parties related to the development, production, marketing and distribution of our original programming. We may face potential liability or may suffer significant losses in connection with these arrangements, including but not limited to if such third parties violate applicable law, become insolvent or engage in fraudulent behavior. To the extent we create and sell physical or digital merchandise relating to our programming, and/or license such rights to third parties, we could become subject to product liability, intellectual property or other claims related to such merchandise. We may decide to remove content from our service, not to place licensed or produced content on our service or discontinue or alter production of original content if we believe such content might not be well-received by our current or potential subscribers, or could be damaging to our brand or business.

To the extent we do not accurately anticipate costs or mitigate risks, including for content that we obtain but ultimately does not appear on or is removed from our service, or if we become liable for content we acquire, produce, license and/or distribute, our business may suffer. Litigation to defend these claims could be costly and the expenses and damages arising.

If our efforts to build a strong brand and to maintain customer satisfaction and loyalty are not successful, we may not be able to attract or retain subscribers, and our business may be harmed.

Building and maintaining a strong brand is important to our ability to attract and retain subscribers, as potential subscribers have a number of TV streaming choices. Successfully building a brand is a time-consuming and comprehensive endeavor and can be positively and negatively impacted by any number of factors. Some of these factors, such as the quality or pricing of our platform or our customer service, are within our control. Other factors, such as the quality of the content that our content publishers provide, may be out of our control, yet subscribers may nonetheless attribute those factors to us. Our competitors may be able to achieve and maintain brand awareness and market share more quickly and effectively than we can. Many of our competitors are larger companies with substantial resources to devote to promoting their brands through traditional forms of advertising, such as print media and TV commercials, and have substantial resources to devote to such efforts. Our competitors may also have greater resources to utilize Internet advertising or website product placement more effectively than we can. In addition, as our current and/or future content partners continue to shift content, including sporting events, that were traditionally only broadcasted on linear Pay TV, to their own platform or our competitors’ DTC platforms, whether exclusively or at more attractive prices, it could adversely affect our ability to build and differentiate our brand and value proposition to our subscribers. If we are unable to execute on building a strong brand, differentiating our business and platform from our competitors in the marketplace, our ability to attract and retain subscribers may be adversely affected and our business may be harmed.

We rely upon a number of partners to make our service available on their devices.

We currently offer subscribers the ability to receive streaming content through a host of Internet-connected screens, including TVs, digital video players, television set-top boxes and mobile devices. Some of our agreements with key distribution partners give distribution partners the ability to terminate their carriage of our service. If we are not successful in maintaining existing and creating new relationships, or if we encounter technological, content licensing, regulatory, business or other impediments to delivering our streaming content to our subscribers via these devices, our ability to retain subscribers and grow our business could be adversely impacted.

27

Table of Contents

Our business could be adversely affected if a number of our partners do not continue to provide access to our service or are unwilling to do so on terms acceptable to us, which terms may include the degree of accessibility and prominence of our service. Furthermore, devices are manufactured and sold by entities other than Fubo, and while these entities should be responsible for the devices’ performance, the connection between these devices and Fubo may nonetheless result in consumer dissatisfaction toward Fubo and such dissatisfaction could result in claims against us or otherwise adversely impact our business. In addition, technology changes to our streaming functionality may require that partners update their devices or may lead us to stop supporting the delivery of our service on certain legacy devices. If partners do not update or otherwise modify their devices, or if we discontinue support for certain devices, our service and our subscribers’ use and enjoyment could be negatively impacted.

We rely upon Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services to operate certain aspects of our service, and any disruption of or interference with our use of Google Cloud Platform and/or Amazon Web Services would impact our operations and our business could be adversely impacted.

Each of Google Cloud Platform (“GCP”) and Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) provides a distributed computing infrastructure platform for business operations, or what is commonly referred to as a “cloud” computing service. We have architected our software and information technology systems so as to utilize data processing, storage capabilities and other services provided by both GCP and AWS. Currently, we run the vast majority of our computing on GCP with some key components running on AWS. Given this, along with the fact that we cannot easily switch what is specifically running now on GCP and/or AWS to another cloud provider, any disruption of or interference with our use of GCP and/or AWS would impact our operations, and our business could be adversely impacted. Google (through YouTube TV) and, to a lesser extent, Amazon (through Amazon Prime) compete with us and, if Google or Amazon were to use GCP or AWS, respectively, in such a manner as to gain competitive advantage against our service, it could harm our business.

Risks Related to Our Financial Reporting and Disclosure

If we identify material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, investors could lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports.

As a public company, we are required to maintain internal control over financial reporting and to report any material weaknesses in such internal control. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we evaluate and determine the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This assessment includes disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by our management in our internal control over financial reporting. Our independent registered public accounting firm is required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

The process of designing and implementing internal control over financial reporting required to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act is time-consuming, costly, and complicated. If during the evaluation and testing process we identify one or more material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, our management will be unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective. Even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, our independent registered public accounting firm may conclude that there are material weaknesses with respect to our internal controls or the level at which our internal controls are documented, designed, implemented, or reviewed. If we are unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an opinion as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected and we could become subject to litigation or investigations by the stock exchange on which our securities are listed, the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources.

Our key metrics and other estimates are subject to inherent challenges in measurement, and real or perceived inaccuracies in those metrics may seriously harm and negatively affect our reputation and our business.

We regularly review key metrics related to the operation of our business, including, but not limited to, average revenue per user, and number of subscribers, to evaluate growth trends, measure our performance, and make strategic decisions. These metrics are calculated using internal company data and have not been validated by an independent third party. While these numbers are based on what we believe to be reasonable estimates of our subscriber base for the applicable period of measurement, there are inherent challenges in measuring how our platform is used across large populations.

28

Table of Contents

Errors or inaccuracies in our metrics or data could result in incorrect business decisions and inefficiencies. For instance, if a significant understatement or overstatement of subscribers were to occur, we may expend resources to implement unnecessary business measures or fail to take required actions to attract a sufficient number of subscribers to satisfy our growth strategies.

In addition, advertisers generally rely on third-party measurement services to calculate our metrics, and these third-party measurement services may not reflect our true audience. If advertisers, partners, or investors do not perceive our subscriber, geographic, or other demographic metrics to be accurate representations of our subscriber base, or if we discover material inaccuracies in our subscriber, geographic, or other demographic metrics, our reputation may be seriously harmed, and our business and operating results could be materially and adversely affected.

Preparing and forecasting our financial results requires us to make judgments and estimates which may differ materially from actual results, and if our operating and financial performance does not meet the guidance that we provide to the public, the market price of our common stock may decline.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. We base such estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, but actual results may differ from these estimates. Using such estimates has the potential to negatively impact the results we report which could negatively impact our stock price.

In addition, from time to time, we release guidance regarding our future performance. Such guidance is based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, although presented with numerical specificity, are inherently subject to business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and are based upon specific assumptions with respect to future business decisions, some of which will change. Any such guidance will be composed of forward-looking statements subject to the risks and uncertainties described in this Annual Report and in our other public filings and public statements. Our actual results may not always be in line with or exceed, and could differ materially from, any guidance we have provided, especially in times of economic uncertainty such as the current environment. If, in the future, our operating or financial results for a particular period do not meet any guidance we provide or the expectations of investment analysts, or if we reduce our guidance for future periods, the market price of our common stock may decline.

Impairment in the carrying value of goodwill or long-lived assets could negatively affect our operating results.

We have a significant amount of goodwill and long-lived assets on our consolidated balance sheet. Under generally accepted accounting principles, annually, and upon the identification of a triggering event, management is required to perform an evaluation of the recoverability of goodwill and long-lived assets. Triggering events potentially warranting an interim goodwill impairment test include, among other factors, declines in historical or projected revenue, operating income or cash flows, and sustained declines in the Company’s stock price or market capitalization, considered both in absolute terms and relative to peers. If business conditions or other factors cause profitability and cash flows to decline, we may be required to record non-cash impairment charges. If the carrying value of our reporting unit exceeds the current fair value, the goodwill is considered impaired and is reduced to fair value by a non-cash charge to earnings. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.

We have recorded material non-cash goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charges in prior periods.

While management cannot predict if or when additional future goodwill or long-lived asset impairments may occur, additional impairments could have material adverse effects on the Company’s operating income, net assets, and/or the Company’s cost of, or access to, capital.

Risks Related to Our Products and Technologies and Competition

TV streaming is highly competitive and many companies, including large technology and entertainment companies, TV brands, and service operators, are actively focusing on this industry. If we fail to differentiate ourselves and compete successfully with these companies, it will be difficult for us to attract or retain subscribers and our business will be harmed.

TV streaming is increasingly competitive and global. Our success depends in part on attracting and retaining subscribers on, and effective monetization of, our platform. To attract and retain subscribers, we need to be able to respond efficiently to changes in consumer tastes and preferences and to further increase the type and number of content offerings. Effective monetization requires us to continue to update the features and functionality of our streaming platform for subscribers and advertisers.

Companies such as DirecTV, Comcast, Cox and Altice, along with virtual multichannel video programming distributors, such as YouTube TV, Hulu Live, DirecTV Stream, Philo and Sling TV, offer TV streaming products that compete with our platform. In many cases, these competitors have the financial resources to subsidize the cost of their streaming services in order to promote their other products and services making it harder for us to acquire new subscribers and increase hours streamed. Similarly, some service operators, such as Comcast and Altice, offer TV streaming applications as part of their cable service plans and can leverage their existing consumer bases, installation networks, broadband delivery networks and name recognition to gain traction in the TV streaming market. Some of these companies also promote their brands through traditional forms of advertising, such as TV commercials, as well as Internet advertising or website product placement, and have greater resources than us to devote to such efforts.

In addition, many TV manufacturers, such as Roku, Inc., Amazon.com, Inc., LG Electronics Inc., Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and VIZIO, Inc., offer their own TV streaming solutions pre-installed on their TVs. Other devices, such as Microsoft’s Xbox and Sony’s PlayStation game consoles and many DVD and Blu-ray players, also incorporate TV streaming functionality.

We expect competition in TV streaming from the large technology companies and service operators described above, as well as new and growing companies, to increase in the future. This increased competition could result in pricing pressure, lower revenue or the failure of our platform to gain or maintain broad market acceptance. To remain competitive, we need to continuously invest in product development and marketing. We may not have sufficient resources to make additional investments needed to maintain our competitive position. In addition, many of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than us, which provide them with advantages in developing, marketing or servicing new products and offerings. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to market demand, devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sales of their products or the distribution of their content, secure more favorable rates for their content, and influence market acceptance of their products better than we can. These competitors may also be able to adapt more quickly to new or emerging technologies or standards and may be able to deliver products and services at a lower cost. New entrants may enter the TV streaming market with unique service offerings or approaches to providing video. In addition, our competitors may enter into business combinations or alliances that strengthen their competitive positions. Even if the Business Combination is consummated, we may not be able to sustain or strengthen our competitive position. Increased competition could reduce our market share, revenue and operating margins, increase our operating costs, harm our competitive position and otherwise harm our business.

If the advertisements and audience development campaigns and other promotional advertising on our platform are not relevant or not engaging to our subscribers, our growth in subscribers, advertisers and hours streamed may be adversely impacted.

We have made, and are continuing to make, investments to enable advertisers to deliver relevant advertising content to subscribers on our platform. Existing and prospective advertisers may not be successful in serving ads and audience development campaigns and sponsoring other promotional advertising that lead to and maintain user engagement. Those ads may seem irrelevant, repetitive or overly targeted and intrusive. We are continuously seeking to balance the objectives of our subscribers and advertisers with our desire to provide an optimal user experience, but we may not be successful in achieving a balance that continues to attract and retain subscribers and advertisers. If we do not introduce relevant advertisements, audience development campaigns and other promotional advertising or such advertisements, audience development campaigns and other promotional advertising are overly intrusive and impede the use of our TV streaming platform, our subscribers may stop using our platform which will harm our business.

Our future growth depends on the acceptance and growth of OTT advertising and OTT advertising platforms.

We operate in a highly competitive advertising industry and we compete for revenue from advertising with other streaming platforms and services, as well as traditional media, such as radio, broadcast, cable and satellite TV, and satellite and internet radio. These competitors offer content and other advertising mediums that may be more attractive to advertisers than our streaming platform. These competitors are often very large and have more advertising experience and financial resources than we do, which may adversely affect our ability to compete for advertisers and may result in lower revenue from advertising. If we are unable to increase our revenue from advertising by, among other things, continuing to improve our platform’s capabilities to further optimize and measure advertisers’ campaigns, increase our advertising inventory and expand our advertising sales team and programmatic capabilities, our business and our growth prospects may be harmed. We may not be able to compete effectively or adapt to any such changes or trends, which would harm our ability to grow our advertising revenue and harm our business.

Many advertisers continue to devote a substantial portion of their advertising budgets to traditional advertising, such as linear TV, radio and print. The future growth of our business depends on the growth of OTT advertising, and on advertisers increasing their spend on advertising on our platform. Although traditional TV advertisers have showed growing interest in OTT advertising, we cannot be certain that their interest will continue to increase or that they will not revert to traditional TV advertising, especially if our customers no longer stream TV or significantly reduce the amount of TV they stream. If advertisers, or their agency relationships, do not perceive meaningful benefits of OTT advertising, the market may develop more slowly than we expect, which could adversely impact our operating results and our ability to grow our business.

We may not be successful at expanding our content to areas outside our current content offering and even if we are able to expand into other content areas and sustain such expansion, we may not be successful in overcoming our reputation as primarily a live sports streaming service.

We currently have a reputation as primarily a live sports streaming service. We are making efforts to expand our content offerings outside live sports streaming, and currently offer a wide selection of news and entertainment content. However, we may not be successful at expanding our content to areas outside our current content offering, or maintaining content from our current content offering, and even if we are able to expand into other content areas and sustain such expansion, we may not be successful in overcoming our reputation as primarily a live sports streaming service.

If TV streaming develops more slowly than we expect, our operating results and growth prospects could be harmed. In addition, our future growth depends in part on the growth of TV streaming advertising.

TV streaming is a relatively new and rapidly evolving industry, making our business and prospects difficult to evaluate. The growth and profitability of this industry and the level of demand and market acceptance for our platform are subject to a high degree of uncertainty.

We believe that the continued growth of streaming as an entertainment alternative will depend on the availability and growth of cost-effective broadband Internet service, the quality of broadband content delivery, the quality and reliability of new devices and technology, the cost for subscribers relative to other sources of content, as well as the quality and breadth of content that is delivered across streaming platforms. These technologies, products and content offerings continue to emerge and evolve. Subscribers, content publishers or advertisers may find TV streaming platforms to be less attractive than traditional TV, which would harm our business. In addition, many advertisers continue to devote a substantial portion of their advertising budgets to traditional advertising, such as TV, radio and print. The future growth of our business depends in part on the growth of TV streaming advertising, and on advertisers increasing spend on such advertising. We cannot be certain that they will do so. If advertisers do not perceive meaningful benefits of TV streaming advertising, then this market may develop more slowly than we expect, which could adversely impact our operating results and our ability to grow our business.

Changes in competitive offerings for entertainment video, including the potential rapid adoption of piracy-based video offerings, could adversely impact our business.

The market for entertainment video is intensely competitive and subject to rapid change. Through new and existing distribution channels, consumers have increasing options to access entertainment video. The various economic models underlying these channels include subscription, transactional, ad-supported, and piracy-based models. All of these have the potential to capture meaningful segments of the entertainment video market. Piracy in particular, threatens to damage our business, as its fundamental proposition to consumers is so compelling and difficult to compete against: virtually all content for free. Furthermore, in light of the compelling consumer proposition, piracy services are subject to rapid global growth. Traditional providers of entertainment video, including broadcasters and cable network operators, as well as Internet based e-commerce or entertainment video providers are increasing their streaming video offerings.

Several of these competitors have long operating histories, large customer bases, strong brand recognition, exclusive rights to certain content and significant financial, marketing and other resources. They may secure better terms from suppliers, adopt more aggressive pricing and devote more resources to product development, technology, infrastructure, content acquisitions and marketing. New entrants may enter the market or existing providers may adjust their services with unique offerings or approaches to providing entertainment video. Companies also may enter into business combinations or alliances that strengthen their competitive positions. If we are unable to successfully compete with current and new competitors, our business will be adversely affected, and we may not be able to increase or maintain market share or revenues.

Our products and services related to sports wagering subjected our business to a variety of related gaming laws, many of which are unsettled and still developing, and which could subject us to claims or otherwise harm our business. The violation of any such laws, any adverse change in any such laws or their interpretation, or the regulatory climate applicable to these products and services, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

While Fubo Gaming dissolved and ceased operation of Fubo Sportsbook in October 2022, Fubo Gaming had launched the Fubo Sportsbook app in Iowa and Arizona during the fourth quarter of 2021, and in New Jersey during the third quarter of 2022. Expansion of our business into sports wagering, including through third-party partnerships, has generally subjected us to the laws and regulations of the jurisdictions in which we conducted our business or in some circumstances, of those jurisdictions in which our services were offered or were available, as well as the general laws and regulations that apply to all e-commerce businesses, such as those related to the privacy and security of personal information, tax and consumer protection and, potentially, any additional laws and regulations that may impact our business partners. These laws and regulations vary from one jurisdiction to another. We may to some extent again become subject to these laws and regulations to the extent we were to engage in gaming operations or otherwise partner with a third party subject to these laws and regulations in the future.

In connection with the foregoing, future legislative and regulatory action, and court decisions or other governmental action, may have a material adverse impact on our operations and financial results. Governmental authorities could view us as having violated applicable laws, despite efforts to obtain all applicable licenses or approvals and otherwise comply with such laws. There is also a risk that civil and criminal proceedings, including class actions brought by or on behalf of prosecutors or public entities or incumbent monopoly providers, or private individuals, could be initiated against us, Internet service providers, credit card and other payment processors, advertisers and others involved in the sports wagering industry who partnered with, serviced or worked with or for us. Such potential proceedings could involve substantial litigation expense, penalties, fines, seizure of assets, injunctions or other restrictions being imposed upon us or our licensees or other business partners, while diverting the attention of key executives. Such proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects, as well as impact our reputation.

If the technology we use in operating our business fails, is unavailable, or does not operate to expectations, our business and results of operation could be adversely impacted.

We utilize a combination of proprietary and third-party technology to operate our business. This includes the technology that we have developed to recommend and merchandise content to our consumers as well as enable fast and efficient delivery of content to our subscribers and their various consumer electronic devices. For example, as part of the content delivery systems, we use third-party content delivery networks (“CDNs”). To the extent Internet Service Providers (“ISPs”) do not interconnect with our CDN or charge us to access their networks, or if we experience difficulties in our CDN’s operation, our ability to efficiently and effectively deliver our streaming content to our subscribers could be adversely impacted and our business and results of operation could be adversely affected.

Likewise, our system for predicting subscriber content preferences is based on advanced data analytics systems and our proprietary algorithms. We have invested, and plan to continue to invest, significant resources in refining these technologies; however, we cannot assure you that such investments will yield an attractive return or that such refinements will be effective. The effectiveness of our ability to predict subscriber content preferences depends in part on our ability to gather and effectively analyze large amounts of subscriber data. Our ability to predict content that our subscribers enjoy is critical to the perceived value of our platform among subscribers and failure to make accurate predictions could materially adversely affect our ability to adequately attract and retain subscribers and sell advertising to meet investor expectations for growth or to generate revenue. We also utilize third-party technology to help market our service, process payments, and otherwise manage the daily operations of our business. If our technology or that of third parties we utilize in our operations fails or otherwise operates improperly, including as a result of “bugs” in our development and deployment of software, our ability to operate our service, retain existing subscribers and add new subscribers may be impaired. Any harm to our subscribers’ personal computers or other devices caused by software used in our operations could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We rely on third-party providers to validate the identity and identify the location of our users, and if such providers fail to perform adequately, provide accurate information or we do not maintain business relationships with them, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

There is no guarantee that the third-party geolocation and identity verification systems that we rely on will perform adequately or be effective. We rely on our geolocation and identity verification systems to ensure we are in compliance with certain laws and regulations, and any service disruption to those systems would prohibit us from operating our offerings and could adversely affect our business. Additionally, incorrect or misleading geolocation and identity verification data with respect to current or potential users received from third-party service providers may result in us inadvertently allowing access to our offerings to individuals who should not be permitted to access them, or otherwise inadvertently deny access to individuals who should be able to access our offerings, in each case based on inaccurate identity or geographic location determination. Our third-party geolocation services provider relies on its ability to obtain information necessary to determine geolocation from mobile devices, operating systems, and other sources. Changes, disruptions or temporary or permanent failure to access such sources by our third-party services providers may result in their inability to accurately determine the location of our users. Moreover, our inability to maintain our existing contracts with third-party services providers, or to replace them with equivalent third parties, may result in our inability to access geolocation and identity verification data necessary for our day-to-day operations. If any of these risks materializes, we may be subject to disciplinary action, fines, lawsuits, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We may face risks associated with our use of certain artificial intelligence and machine learning models.

Our business utilizes internally developed and third party artificial intelligence ("AI") and machine learning technologies, including in connection with offering interactive functionality on our platform. For example, in December 2021, we completed the acquisition of Edisn, an AI-powered computer vision platform with patent-pending video recognition technologies based in Bangalore, India. We are, and plan in the future, to evaluate the further investment in and/or use artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, including potential utilization by our business. As with many technological innovations, artificial intelligence presents risks and challenges that could affect our ability to effectively use such technologies, and therefore our business. If our AI tools are inadequately or incorrectly designed, improperly trained or used, or the data used to train or refine them is incomplete, inadequate or biased in some way or is data to which we or the providers of such AI technologies do not have sufficient rights, our use of AI may inadvertently reduce our efficiency or cause unintentional or unexpected outputs that are incorrect, do not match our business goals, do not comply with our policies or standards or adversely affect our financial condition, business and reputation.

In addition to our proprietary AI technologies, we use AI technologies licensed from third parties in our business. Our ability to continue to use such technologies at the scale we need may be dependent on access to specific third-party software and infrastructure. We cannot control the availability or pricing of such third-party AI technologies, especially in a highly competitive environment, and we may be unable to negotiate favorable economic terms with the applicable providers. If any such third-party AI technologies become incompatible with our solutions or unavailable for use, or if the providers of such models unfavorably change the terms on which their AI technologies are offered or terminate their relationship with us, our solutions may become less appealing to our customers and our business will be harmed. In addition, to the extent any third party AI technologies are used as a hosted service, any disruption, outage, or loss of information through such hosted services could disrupt our operations or solutions, damage our reputation, cause a loss of confidence in our solutions, or result in legal claims or proceedings, for which we may be unable to recover damages from the affected provider.

Artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies are complex and rapidly evolving, and we face significant competition from other companies in our industry as well as an evolving regulatory landscape. These efforts, including the introduction of new products or changes to existing products, may result in new or enhanced governmental or regulatory scrutiny, litigation, ethical concerns, or other complications that could adversely affect our business, reputation, or financial results. Changes to existing regulations, their interpretation or implementation or new regulations could impede our use of artificial intelligence and machine learning technology and also may increase the burden and cost of research and development in this area. For example, in Europe, the EU Artificial Intelligence Act (“EU AI Act”) entered into force in August 2024 and establishes a comprehensive, risk-based governance framework for artificial intelligence in the EU market, and the majority of the substantive requirements will apply two years later. The EU AI Act applies to companies that develop, use and/ or provide artificial intelligence in the EU and includes requirements around transparency, conformity assessments and monitoring, risk assessments, human oversight, security, accuracy, general purpose artificial intelligence and foundation models, and proposes fines for breach of up to 7% of worldwide annual turnover. In addition, the revised EU Product Liability Directive came into force in December 2024, to be implemented into EU member state national law by December 2026. This Directive extends the EU’s existing strict product liability regime to AI and machine learning technologies, and facilitates civil claims in respect of harm caused by AI. Once fully applicable, the EU AI Act and the EU Product Liability Directive will have a material impact on the way artificial intelligence is regulated in the EU, and together with developing guidance and/ or decisions in this area, may affect our use of artificial intelligence and our ability to provide and to improve our services, require additional compliance measures and changes to our operations and processes, result in increased compliance costs and potential increases in civil claims against us, and could adversely affect our business, operations and financial condition.

In the United States, there has been uncertainty regarding the applicable regulations that will apply to the development and use of AI technologies. For instance, in January 2025, the current administration rescinded an executive order from the prior administration relating to the safe and secure development of AI technologies. The current administration then issued a new interim executive order that, among other things, requires certain agencies to specifically review and, if possible, rescind rulemaking taken pursuant to the rescinded prior administration executive order. Any such changes at the federal level could require us to expend significant resources to modify our products, services, or operations to promote compliance or remain competitive. U.S. legislation related to AI technologies has also been introduced at the federal level and is advancing at the state level. Such additional regulations may impact our ability to develop, use, procure and commercialize AI technologies in the future.

In addition to regulatory developments, there is an increase in litigation in a number of jurisdictions, including the United States, relating to the use of artificial intelligence, particularly generative artificial intelligence. In addition, market acceptance of artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies is uncertain, and we may be unsuccessful in our product development efforts. Any of these factors and regulatory developments, and together with developing guidance and/ or decisions in this area, could adversely affect our use of artificial intelligence and our ability to provide and to improve our services, our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Risks Related to Regulation

We will be subject to regulatory investigations, which could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business practices in a materially adverse manner.
