DraftKings continues to transact with the entity, according to SEC filings.\nDraftKings trades at a ~26x last twelve months (LTM) sales multiple and a ~20x estimated 2021 sales multiple despite (i) no expectation of earnings for years, (ii) intense competition, and (iii) regulatory risk. The company posted net losses of $844 million in 2020 and $346 million last quarter.\nInsiders have dumped over $1.4 billion in stock since the company went public a little over a year ago, with SBTech’s founder leading the pack, having personally sold ~$568 million in shares.\nDespite a rocky track record prior to taking DraftKings public, the company’s SPAC sponsors ultimately received 9.3 million shares, worth around $114 million at the time, in exchange for a token $25 thousand contribution.\nWe spoke with several industry experts and competitors who questioned the viability of DraftKings’ model of aggressively burning cash on promotion and marketing to acquire customers in the near term, despite a lack of evidence of long-term customer brand loyalty.\nWe think DraftKings has systematically skirted the law and taken elaborate steps to obfuscate its black market operations. These violations appear to be continuing to this day, all while insiders aggressively cash out amidst the market froth.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"DKNG":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1553,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":379223034,"gmtCreate":1618749187228,"gmtModify":1704714559036,"author":{"id":"3581573485414621","authorId":"3581573485414621","name":"Gingerbread","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c5f20467588b3cc061aa6155e8ffdf2d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581573485414621","idStr":"3581573485414621"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Insightful","listText":"Insightful","text":"Insightful","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/379223034","repostId":"2127342088","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1927,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":379229131,"gmtCreate":1618749086323,"gmtModify":1704714558067,"author":{"id":"3581573485414621","authorId":"3581573485414621","name":"Gingerbread","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c5f20467588b3cc061aa6155e8ffdf2d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581573485414621","idStr":"3581573485414621"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting","listText":"Interesting","text":"Interesting","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/379229131","repostId":"1165321503","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1711,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":379393393,"gmtCreate":1618668149412,"gmtModify":1704713953678,"author":{"id":"3581573485414621","authorId":"3581573485414621","name":"Gingerbread","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c5f20467588b3cc061aa6155e8ffdf2d","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581573485414621","idStr":"3581573485414621"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting read","listText":"Interesting read","text":"Interesting read","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/379393393","repostId":"1162545659","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2086,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":true}
