All Important Targets Have Been Met

The company has been able to secure streaming rights with CONMEBOL and has been experimenting with various features, including free-to-play games available for sports fans and viewers.

“Our Fubo Sportsbook with real-money wagering remains on track for a fourth-quarter launch as we intend to further combine interactivity with streaming video. Our plans are to launch a holistic and personalized user experience as evidenced by our sportsbook,” Gandler added. 

FuboTV’s executive chairman was pleased with the company’s results in the quarter, arguing that the company continues to meet operating and financial goals and delivering a world-class experience to consumers. 

The second quarter has indicated the continuation of fuboTV’s growth trajectory that resulted in an adjustment of the previous targets.
