Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) amends the Annual Report on Form 10-K of DraftKings Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “Original Filing”), filed on February 26, 2021 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and subsequently amended by Amendment No. 1, filed with the SEC on May 3, 2021 (“Amendment No. 1”). This Amendment No. 2 is being filed solely to (i) restate Part II, Item 9A. Controls and Procedures to reflect the conclusion of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2020 and (ii) file new certifications of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer pursuant to Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as exhibits under Part IV, Item 15.

Notwithstanding this Amendment No. 2, management has concluded that the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in Amendment No. 1 present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the periods presented, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

Except as discussed above, the Company has not modified or updated disclosures presented in Amendment No. 1. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 2 does not reflect events occurring after the Original Filing or Amendment No. 1, nor does it modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events or discoveries. It also does not affect information contained in the Original Filing which was not impacted by the restatement of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in Amendment No. 1. Events occurring after the filing of the Original Filing or other disclosures necessary to reflect subsequent events have been or will be addressed in the Company's reports filed subsequent to the Original Filing. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings set forth in Amendment No. 1.

This Amendment No. 2 should be read in conjunction with the Company's filings made with the SEC subsequent to the Original Filing, including any amendments to those filings.

PART II

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Prior to the Original Filing and Amendment No. 1, as required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2020 and deemed them to be effective.

Amendment No. 1 was filed to include the Company’s restated consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 following the release by the Staff of the SEC of a statement on April 12, 2021, (the “SEC Statement”) expressing the view that warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies such as those that were initially issued by Diamond Eagle Acquisition Corp. (“DEAC”) prior to merging with the Company (“Assumed Warrants”) may require classification as a liability of the entity measured at fair value, with changes in fair value each period reported in earnings.

Subsequent to, and as a result of that restatement, the Company has concluded that there was a material weakness in its operation of controls over the classification and accounting for the Assumed Warrants in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 815-40, and solely as a result of the material weakness, its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2020.

Notwithstanding this material weakness described above, we have concluded that the audited consolidated financial statements included in Amendment No. 1 present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the periods presented, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Remediation of Material Weakness

To remediate the material weakness, we studied and clarified our understanding of the accounting for contracts that may be settled in the Company’s own stock, such as warrants, as highlighted in the SEC Statement and enhanced the accounting policy, controls and procedures related to the accounting for such contracts to determine proper accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP as clarified by the SEC Statement. We restated our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 upon completing our evaluation of the SEC Statement. All necessary revisions are properly reflected in Amendment No. 1. While these actions are subject to ongoing management evaluation, including the validation and testing of internal controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles, we are committed to remediating internal controls deficiencies as they are identified and committed to the continuous improvement of our overall control environment.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We completed the Business Combination on April 23, 2020. Prior to the Business Combination, we were a special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more operating businesses. As a result, previously existing internal controls are no longer applicable or comprehensive enough as of the assessment date as our operations prior to the Business Combination were insignificant compared to those of the consolidated entity post-Business Combination. The design of internal controls over financial reporting for the Company post-Business Combination has required and will continue to require significant time and resources from management and other personnel. As a result, management was unable, without incurring unreasonable effort or expense to conduct an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. Accordingly, we are excluding management's report on internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 215.02 of the SEC Division of Corporation Finance's Regulation S-K Compliance & Disclosure Interpretations.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Other than as described above under “Remediation of Material Weakness”, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, we are continually monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and any potential impact to our internal controls.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, as specified above. Our management recognizes that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain judgments and assumptions and cannot provide absolute assurance that its objectives will be met.
