Basis of Presentation

On October 29, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), FuboTV Inc. (the “Company” or “Fubo”), The Walt Disney Company (“Disney”) and Hulu, LLC (“Hulu”) consummated the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of January 6, 2025, by and among Fubo, Disney and Hulu, pursuant to which the parties combined Fubo’s existing business with Disney’s Hulu + Live TV business (the “Hulu Live Business” and, such transactions, collectively, the “Business Combination”).

The Company has accounted for the Business Combination as a reverse acquisition of the Company using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), with the Hulu Live Business treated as the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, commencing with the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2025, the historical combined carve-out financial statements of the Hulu Live Business are presented as the historical financial statements of the Company. Prior to the Business Combination, the Hulu Live Business operated as part of Hulu, which is controlled and consolidated by Disney, and, therefore, its historical financial statements were prepared on a carve-out basis from Disney and Hulu, including allocations of certain corporate costs, shared services, and assets and liabilities that were not historically operated or financed on a standalone basis. As a result, the historical results of the Hulu Live Business are not necessarily comparable to the results of the Company following the Business Combination.

To facilitate comparability between periods, we have also included supplemental unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, including Pro Forma Revenue and Pro Forma Net Income (Loss), giving effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated at the beginning of the first period presented. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical combined carve-out financial statements of the Hulu Live Business and the historical consolidated financial statements of Fubo, as adjusted to give effect to the Business Combination and related transactions. This information is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position would have been had the Business Combination and related transactions taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the combined company.

Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, the Hulu Live Business’s fiscal year ended on the Saturday closest to September 30, and the Company’s historical fiscal year end was December 31. Effective as of the Closing Date, the Company changed its fiscal year end to September 30, with its first full fiscal year following the Closing Date to end on September 30, 2026.

Key Performance Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Total Subscribers
Total Subscribers represent the total number of subscribers to our live TV streaming services, including Fubo and Hulu + Live TV, who have completed registration, have activated a payment method (reflecting one paying subscriber per plan), and from whom payment was collected during the month ending the relevant period. Subscribers participating in free or trial offerings are excluded from this metric. We believe the number of total paid subscribers is a useful metric for gauging the size of our user base following the business combination with Hulu + Live TV. For comparative purposes, Total Subscribers for periods ended prior to the Closing Date gives effect to the Business Combination as if it had been completed at the beginning of such period.

Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures defined as Net Income (Loss) and Pro Forma Net income (Loss), respectively, in each case adjusted for depreciation and amortization, impairment of other assets, stock-based compensation, certain litigation and transaction expenses, other (income) expense, income tax provision (benefit), and certain corporate allocation expenses. Certain litigation expenses consist of legal expenses and related fees and costs for specific proceedings that we have determined arise outside of the ordinary course of business and do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance, based on the several considerations which we assess regularly, including: (1) the frequency of similar cases that have been brought to date, or are expected to be brought in the future; (2) matter-specific facts and circumstances, such as the unique nature or complexity of the case and/or remedy(ies) sought, including the size of any monetary damages sought; (3) the counterparty involved; and (4) the extent to which management considers these amounts for purposes of operating decision-making and in assessing operating performance. Certain transaction expenses consist of professional advisor costs related to the business combination with Hulu + Live TV. Certain corporate allocation expenses consist of expenses related to allocations of Hulu and Disney’s corporate executive functions and other services previously provided by Hulu and Disney to the Hulu Live Business. As many of these corporate functions are redundant to those already existing at Fubo, Fubo expects to incur limited additional costs to operate as a combined public company that are not based on the commercial arrangements effective as of the Closing Date.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP financial measures defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA divided by Pro Forma Revenue, respectively.

Free Cash Flow
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure defined as Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, reduced by capital expenditures (consisting of purchases of property and equipment), capitalization of internal use software, purchases of intangible assets and gain on settlement of litigation, net. We believe Free Cash Flow is an important liquidity measure of the cash that is available for operational expenses, investments in our business, strategic acquisitions, and for certain other activities such as repaying debt obligations and stock repurchases. Free Cash Flow is a key financial indicator used by management. Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures our ability to generate or use cash. The use of Free Cash Flow as an analytical tool has limitations due to the fact that it does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Because of these limitations, Free Cash Flow should be considered along with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Key Performance Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain measures used in this press release, including Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Free Cash Flow, are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these are useful financial measures for investors as they are supplemental measures used by management in evaluating our core operating performance. Our non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results under GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents. First, these non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP financial measures. Second, these non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information directly comparable to measures provided by other companies in our industry, as those other companies may calculate their non-GAAP financial measures differently.

The following tables include reconciliations of the historical non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

  1. Certain litigation expenses consist of legal expenses and related fees for specific proceedings that we have determined arise outside of the ordinary course of business and do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance. For the periods presented, the adjustment included expenses attributable to antitrust and data privacy litigation. Certain transaction expenses consist of professional advisor costs related to the business combination with Hulu + Live TV.
  2. Certain corporate allocation expenses consist of expenses related to allocations of Hulu and Disney’s corporate executive functions and other services previously provided by Hulu and Disney to the Hulu Live Business. As many of these corporate functions are redundant to those already existing at Fubo, Fubo expects to incur limited additional costs to operate as a combined public company that are not based on the commercial arrangements effective as of the Closing Date.

1 To facilitate comparability between periods, the following presents Fubo’s Q2 fiscal 2026 results compared to Fubo’s results for the corresponding three month period ended March 31, 2025 (“Q2 fiscal 2025”) on an as-reported basis and pro forma basis, which gives effect to the Company’s business combination with Hulu + Live TV as if it had been completed at the beginning of the first period presented.
2 Q2 fiscal 2025 Pro Forma Net Income was positively impacted by a $220 million net gain related to the settlement of litigation.
3 Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. For a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, Net Income (Loss) and Pro Forma Net Income (Loss) (prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X), respectively, for historical periods, please refer to the “Reconciliation of Key Performance Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release. See “Basis of Presentation” and “Key Performance Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for more information.
4 Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company is not providing a reconciliation of forward-looking Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA or Free Cash Flow to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures, Pro Forma Net income (Loss) (prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X), Net Income (Loss) and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, respectively, because the Company does not currently have sufficient information to accurately estimate all of the variables and individual adjustments for such reconciliation. As such, the Company cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these variables and individual adjustments will have on its reported results. See also “Basis of Presentation” and “Key Performance Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

"Fubo’s second quarter Fiscal Year 2026 results, including record revenue of $1.6 billion globally, demonstrate the growing strength and scale of our business," said David Gandler, co-founder and CEO, Fubo.
