Exhibit99.1
May 5, 2022
Fellow Shareholders,
In the first quarter, despite a challenging macro environment, fuboTV achieved strong growth in subscribers and revenue, with North American subscriber growth of 81% year-over-year. In addition, ad revenue grew 81% year-over-year. In a less robust advertising market, however, we experienced some pressure on adjusted contribution margin due to slower ad sales growth than we had initially expected. Importantly, we strengthened our balance sheet, ending the quarter with $456.0 million in cash. This increased financial flexibility is expected to take us through 2023, and we are targeting positive cash flow and Adjusted EBITDA (AEBITDA) in 2025, with a relatively modest cash requirement anticipated in 2024. We have sharpened our focus on our strategies to achieve profitability as we continue to scale. We believe that the initiatives we are undertaking strike an appropriate balance of capturing market share while driving the operating leverage inherent in our model.
We are committed to a business which replaces the decades-old basic cable package by giving consumers increased and improved content, “anytime anywhere” access and mobility, increased choice and flexibility, personalization and interactivity - including gaming. While striving to be the most compelling destination for cord cutters, fuboTV has started to enact a series of approaches to increase monetization, accelerate our ad sales business, and further strengthen our unit economics.
The overall market continues to move in our direction with cord cutting continuing to accelerate. Consumers are increasingly choosing fuboTV over more expensive legacy pay TV services, due to our differentiated, personalized user experience that offers great content at exceptional value. Over the course of the last few quarters, we have asserted that the proliferation of streaming video-on-demand (SVOD) services will become increasingly burdensome and costly for consumers, leading to a shift back to aggregation and bundling. Recently, several industry experts have validated our view. For example, analyst Michael Nathanson, Senior Research Analyst at MoffettNathanson, covering both the Media industry and the leading Digital Advertising companies, commented on CNBC:
“Asa consumer, what I want is what I had in the linear bundle. One place with ease of use, content and discovery. That old linear bundle,which everyone hates and wants to cut the cord on, actually provided people with a pretty good user experience in terms of discoveryof content and you just knowing where things were because it was all linear.”

Similarly, Nielsen recently published a study showing that:
“64%of viewers say they wish there was a bundled video streaming service that would allow them to choose as few or as many video streamingservices as they wanted, more like channels” and “45% of viewers say it’s harder to find the video streamingcontent they want to watch because there are too many streaming services available for consumers”^1^.
We believe that our diversified content mix, augmented by a personalized and interactive streaming experience, is the future of this space and the key to capturing mindshare and market share. Television viewing tethered to a wire in the home is yesterday’s technology.
As a result, in the first quarter, our North American Streaming business delivered double-digit year-over-year growth in total paid subscribers (up 81% to 1,056,245), total revenue (up 98% to $236.7 million), and advertising revenue (up 81% to $22.8 million). Importantly, engagement also remained strong. We are also pleased with our ongoing reductions in churn, with an improvement of 49 basis points year-over-year, and acquisition efficiency, with our Subscriber Acquisition Cost (SAC)/Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) ratio at the low end of our target 1.0-1.5X range.
In Rest of World (ROW) Streaming, we ended the quarter ahead of expectations with approximately 305,000 total paid subscribers and $5.5 million in total revenue. This marks our first full quarter of being operational in France following our acquisition of Molotov in December 2021. Our Molotov integration initiatives continue to lay the foundation for growth and profitability in the region and globally. Additionally, we believe the unification of our technology platforms will result in approximately $75 million in cost synergies between 2022 and 2025.
In our efforts to drive operating leverage and expand margins, we initiated a series of strategies to strengthen monetization, including funnel optimization to drive take-rate of higher-ARPU products and the migration of lower-ARPU subscribers to higher-ARPU bundles which commenced in the second quarter. We are also launching additional upsell pathways to drive attachment sales, such as our recently launched News Plus product. These strategies are already yielding meaningful ARPU expansion, which we expect to continue in the quarters to come.

We had a first quarter 2022 earnings per share (EPS) loss of $0.89, inclusive of $0.07 impact from expenses incurred for our wagering business and $0.05 associated with the Molotov business acquired in 4Q21, compared to a loss of $0.59 in the first quarter of 2021. Adjusted EPS in the first quarter of 2022 was a loss of $0.69. Adjusted EPS excludes the non-cash impact of stock-based compensation, the re-measurement of warrant liabilities, and the amortization of intangibles debt discount and other non-cash items^3^.
We ended the quarter with $456.0 million of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. This included $203.8 million of net proceeds from securities sales pursuant to our At-The-Market (ATM) program, $2.0 million cash expense related to M&A activities and $11.6 million cash investments for wagering activities, inclusive of $4 million related to our market access licensing arrangements. We remain highly disciplined in the management of our capital structure to afford fuboTV the financial flexibility and optionality to fund measured and disciplined growth initiatives.
Operating cash flow in the quarter was negative $126.6 million, inclusive of the impacts of $2.6 million non-recurring payments, and $7.5 million operating cash outflow associated with the wagering business. Relative to 1Q22, our expectation is that operating cash flow losses will moderate meaningfully over the rest of the year.
As of March 31, 2022, fuboTV had 182,677,189 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

OperationalHighlights
Note:To allow a more meaningful assessment of the operational advancements in the business, the metrics reported in this “OperationalHighlights” section refer to our North America streaming business.
AdSales
****fuboTV achieved ad revenue of $22.8 million, an increase of 81% versus Q1 of 2021. The majority of Q1 revenue was returning business with a strong influx from new advertisers, while revenue among our top 10 advertisers grew 143% year-over-year. Market conditions impacted advertiser demand, and we experienced delays in improving our ad technology and launching new capabilities for advertisers. Although Ad ARPU declined 4.5% year-over-year, we believe our ongoing efforts will lead to improvement as the year progresses, and we maintain our long term target for Ad ARPU at $15-20.
Within the quarter, building on our strategic first-party data partnerships with LiveRamp and Dentsu’s M1 platform, we launched an alliance with leading advertising measurement company Kantar. This partnership enables advertisers to measure the effectiveness of their campaigns on fuboTV, which we expect to be a powerful tool in continuing to drive performance-based and outcome-driven advertising. A study we executed with Kantar and a leading pharmaceutical company showed a 9% increase in purchase intent and also showed that fuboTV’s campaign performance topped Kantar’s market norm across consideration and preference. Additionally, we continued to grow our demand partners, adding Triple Lift as well as LG Ads.

| --- |
We remain focused on continuing to build out our ad sales infrastructure as advertising represents a vital lever for profitability. We are optimizing our ad serving platform in order to offer our advertisers highly-targeted inventory, and to maximize return on investment (ROI) on our platform. Additionally, we have rolled out a new recommendation-driven homepage across all of our device platforms, giving us sophisticated tools to promote higher-value advertising content in a personalized way for our subscribers.
Moving forward, we remain focused on strategic hires, continued deployment of first-party data to further enhance our targeting capabilities and the creation of new ad units and inventory across our video and sportsbook products. We believe these initiatives will position us to benefit from market trends that continue to favor fuboTV’s value proposition to advertisers and grow contribution margin.
Additionally, today, we held our annual Upfront and presented numerous opportunities for advertisers to leverage our sports-first platform to follow their audiences and reach highly-engaged fans. This includes the unveiling of custom audience-targeting strategies and a forthcoming original series hosted by NBA star R.J. Hampton of the Orlando Magic on our Fubo Sports Network.
ContentStrategy
We recently announced the appointment of Henry Ahn, a respected media industry executive who has played a critical advisory role as a member of fuboTV’s board of directors since 2020, to the newly-created position of Chief Business Officer. In his new role, Henry is responsible for fuboTV’s content strategy and licensing as well as business development. Importantly, he has been tasked with realigning our content costs as we continue to scale the business. Previously, Henry served as President of Content Distribution and Partnerships for Univision Communications Inc.
As part of strategy, we are focused on increasing the number of free ad-supported television channels, or FAST networks, offered on fuboTV. We believe these channels will enable us to grow profitable ad revenue as they bring premium programming to our customers with minimal expected content costs. Recent FAST channel launches on fuboTV include Fox Weather, Revry, Revry News, Tastemade en Espanol, Tastemade Travel and more.
Similarly, we are investing in direct content rights to better leverage the Subscriber Related Expenses (SRE) line. During the first quarter, we acquired direct rights for two of Europe’s most renowned soccer properties: Union of European Football Association (UEFA) national team competitions and the English Premier League (EPL). Through a six-year sublicense with FOX Sports, fuboTV will stream select UEFA matches in the U.S., beginning with the UEFA Nations League™ in June 2022. And, starting in August 2022, fuboTV will be the home of the EPL, England’s top soccer league, in Canada. These direct rights are aligned with our broader profitability goals as they represent differentiation which helps efficiently attract subscribers, unlock multiple monetization opportunities including sponsorships and additional ad units, and helps us gain leverage over the SRE line.
| 6 |
| --- |
Outside of the core bundle, we continue to build attachment sales and upsells as another driver of our path toward positive AEBITDA. During the quarter, we expanded our Spanish-language offering with the launch of several networks from Hemisphere Media Group Networks, and, at a time when international news was on the forefront of everyone’s mind, we launched a News Plus add-on channel package with networks including BBC World News and Bloomberg TV Plus. Content attachments are also another important lever to drive healthy contribution margin as they can have gross margins of up to 90%.
Wagering
Wagering remains an important pillar in our path to profitability and in our strategy to integrate interactivity into our live TV streaming experience. We believe our differentiated approach will disrupt both video and gaming, tapping into the broad gaming market, and unlocking the casual player. Last quarter we shared that crossover users (those who are both video subscribers and sportsbook players) are placing more bets and retaining at higher rates than sportsbook-only players, and our data continues to support our thesis around the strength of a fully-integrated experience. Over time, we believe this will expand ARPU and drive strong unit economics as users in our ecosystem engage more fully across our platform.
With our proprietary Fubo Sportsbook, we have brought a unique wagering experience to the market. Fubo Sportsbook is distinct as the only owned-and-operated app in the U.S. that syncs live sports viewing and wagering in a single ecosystem. While other major sportsbooks have embraced a parallel live sports streaming experience, they have elected to partner with media companies rather than build integrated usability. Fubo Sportsbook is now live in Arizona and Iowa, and we expect to launch Fubo Sportsbook in additional markets this year.
Consistent with our focus on judicious capital allocation, we have enacted a measured approach to our entry into new markets as we build the foundation to support this initiative at scale and innovate our differentiated product. We have now secured 10 market access licenses in regions that are closely aligned with our subscriber base and we believe that over the long-term we will generate an attractive return on these investments, with our built-in video audience allowing us to acquire users more efficiently, with a limited amount of marketing spend.
| 7 |
| --- |
Leadership
Following last quarter’s appointment of John Janedis as CFO, during the quarter, we further strengthened our leadership team with the addition of Julie Haddon, former National Football League (NFL) executive and current co-owner of the Chicago Red Stars of the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL), to our Board of Directors and as a member of our Audit Committee. Julie replaced Henry Ahn who, as mentioned earlier in the letter, has transitioned to fuboTV’s management team in the newly created position of Chief Business Officer.
Guidance
NorthAmerica Streaming
Given the recent migration of our existing “Starter” ($64.99/mo) customers into our “Pro” ($69.99/mo) plan as well as the seasonality in our business, our Q2 2022 guidance projects 965,000-975,000 subscribers, representing 44% year-over-year growth at the midpoint, and revenue of $220-$225 million, representing 70% year-over-year growth at the midpoint. While this represents a sequential decline, it is consistent with normal seasonal trends in our business. We remain confident in our long-term trajectory of driving growth, as we advance towards our goal of turning cash flow and AEBITDA positive in 2025.
On a full-year basis we are updating our previous guidance, including revenue of $1,020-$1,030 million, representing 61% year-over-year growth at the midpoint. Note that this guidance does not include any projected revenues from online sports wagering. We are also guiding to total year-end subscribers of 1,465,000-1,485,000, representing 31% year-over-year growth at the midpoint.
ROWStreaming
We are guiding to Q2 2022 revenue of $5-$6 million and subscribers of 300,000-310,000.
On a full-year basis, we are increasing our previous guidance to projected revenue of $20-$25 million and total year-end subscribers of 300,000-310,000.
This ROW guidance reflects our focus on a deliberate cadence to our integration efforts and a measured deployment of investment dollars.
Within Global Streaming, we expect to see operating leverage and AEBITDA margin expansion going forward. Accordingly, we plan to give guidance around AEBITDA margin in the ensuing quarters.
| 8 |
| --- |
Conclusion
Our total revenue and subscriber results for the quarter are testament to the strength of our offerings and consumers’ desire to have access to compelling content with great value. We also continue to be the beneficiary of the acceleration of cord cutting and the ongoing shift of ad dollars to CTV. We believe our strategies to drive operating leverage in our business and expand unit economics through our disciplined growth plan will allow us to continue to deliver a superior consumer experience and advance towards our goal of positive cash flow and Adjusted EBITDA in 2025.
We are excited to share more regarding our strategic plan, key initiatives, and long-term financial targets at our soon to be finalized investor day in mid-August, and showcase our continued progress towards building the world’s leading global live TV streaming platform with the greatest breadth of premium content, interactivity and integrated wagering.
We look forward to keeping you updated and thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,
David Gandler, co-founder and CEO Edgar Bronfman Jr., executive chairman

KeyMetrics and Non-GAAP Measures
PaidSubscribers
We believe the number of paid subscribers is a relevant measure to gauge the size of our user base. Total subscribers that have completed registration with fuboTV, have activated a payment method (only reflects one paying user per plan), from which fuboTV has collected payment from in the month ending the relevant period. Users who are on a free (trial) period are not included in this metric.
Attachments
Attachments are incremental add-ons sold on top of the base subscription.
SubscriberAcquisition Cost (SAC)
Subscriber Acquisition Cost (SAC) reflects total GAAP sales and marketing expenses less headcount related to sales and marketing spend for a given period divided by Gross Paid Subscriber Additions for the same period.
MonthlySubscription Average Revenue per User (Monthly Sub ARPU)
Sub ARPU (Average Revenue Per User) is a fuboTV measure defined as total subscriber revenue collected in the period divided by the average daily paid subscribers in such period divided by the number of months in the period.
MonthlyAdvertising Average Revenue per User (Monthly Ad ARPU)
Ad ARPU (Average Revenue Per User) is a fuboTV measure defined as total advertising revenue in the period divided by the average daily paid subscribers in such period divided by the number of months in the period.
MonthlyAverage Revenue per User (Monthly ARPU)
We believe Monthly Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) is a relevant measure to gauge the revenue received per subscriber on a monthly basis. ARPU is a fuboTV measure defined as total revenue collected in the period (subscriber and advertising revenues excluding other revenues), also known as Platform Bookings, divided by the average daily paid subscribers in such period divided by the number of months in the period.
AverageCost Per User (ACPU)
We believe Monthly Average Cost Per User (ACPU) is a relevant measure to gauge our expenses per subscriber. ACPU reflects COGS per user defined as subscriber related expenses less payment processing for deferred revenue, In-App-Billing (IAB) fees for deferred revenue and other subscriber related expenses in a given period, divided by the average daily subscribers in the period, divided by the number of months in the period.
AdjustedContribution Margin
We believe Adjusted Contribution Margin (ACM) is a relevant metric to gauge our per-subscriber profitability. ACM is a non-GAAP measure that measures costs against subscriber revenue. ACM is calculated by subtracting ACPU from ARPU.
AdjustedEBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as Net Loss, adjusted for depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, income tax benefit, impairment of intangibles, other expenses, and one-time non-cash expenses.
AdjustedEBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a non-GAAP measure defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
AdjustedNet Loss
Adjusted Net Loss is a non-GAAP measure defined as Net Loss Attributable to Controlling Interest, adjusting for stock-based compensation, change in fair value of warrants, amortization of debt discount, amortization of intangible assets and other non-cash items.
AdjustedEPS (Earnings per Share)
Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP measure defined as Adjusted Net Loss divided by weighted average shares outstanding.

Reconciliationof Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain measures used in this letter, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, ARPU, Sub ARPU, Ad ARPU, ACPU, Adjusted Contribution Margin, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted EPS 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 reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP financial measure.

FORIMMEDIATE RELEASE
FUBOTVCLOSED Q1 2022 WITH $236.7M REVENUE,
1.056MILLION SUBSCRIBERS IN NORTH AMERICA
NEWYORK – MAY 5, 2022 – fuboTV Inc. (NYSE: FUBO), the leading sports-first live TV streaming platform, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022.
fuboTV’s North American (U.S. and Canada) streaming business delivered a record $236.7 million in total revenue in the first quarter, an increase of 98% year-over-year. The company also delivered solid year-over-year growth in advertising revenue (up 81% to $22.8 million) and total paid subscribers (up 81% to 1,056,245). fuboTV states its key metrics on a year-over-year basis given the seasonality of sports content.
The company also announced results for its Rest of World (France, Spain) streaming business for the first time. fuboTV ended the quarter ahead of expectations with approximately 305,000 total paid subscribers and $5.5 million in total revenue.
Complete first quarter 2022 results are detailed in fuboTV’s shareholder letter available on the company’s IR site.
“In our first quarter, against a challenging macro environment, fuboTV achieved strong growth in subscribers and revenue, with North American subscriber growth of 81% year-over-year,” said David Gandler, co-founder and CEO, fuboTV. “In a less robust advertising market, however, we experienced some pressure on adjusted contribution margin due to slower ad sales growth than we had initially expected, with ad revenue up 81% year-over-year. Importantly, we strengthened fuboTV’s balance sheet, ending the quarter with over $456 million in cash. This increased financial flexibility is expected to take us through 2023, and we are targeting positive cash flow and Adjusted EBITDA (AEBITDA) in 2025, with a relatively modest cash requirement anticipated in 2024.”
“We are committed to a business which replaces the decades-old basic cable package by giving consumers increased and improved content, ‘anytime anywhere’ access and mobility, increased choice and flexibility, personalization and interactivity - including gaming,” said Edgar Bronfman Jr., executive chairman, fuboTV. “Wagering remains an important pillar in our path to profitability and strategy to integrate interactivity into our live TV streaming experience. While striving to be the most compelling destination for cord cutters, fuboTV has started to enact a series of approaches to increase monetization, accelerate our ad sales business and further strengthen our unit economics.”
