CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including statements about the financial condition, results of operations, earnings outlook and prospects of Lottery.com Inc. (“Lottery.com”, the “Company”, “we” or “us”). Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places in this Report, including, without limitation, under the heading in Part I, “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “continue,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “should,” “would” and other similar words and expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

Forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of the management of Lottery.com and are inherently subject to uncertainties and changes in circumstances and their potential effects and speak only as of the date of such statement. There can be no assurance that future developments will be those that have been anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors discussed and identified in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report”) and in this Report, as such factors may be updated in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as well as the following:

	●	The findings of the previously disclosed Internal Investigation (as defined herein) and other matters have exposed us to a number of legal proceedings, investigations and inquiries, resulted in significant legal and other expenses, required significant time and attention from our senior management, among other adverse impacts.

	●	We and certain of our former officers are, and in the future, we or our officers and directors may become, the subject of legal proceedings, investigations and inquiries by governmental agencies with respect to the findings of the Internal Investigation and other matters, which could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations, and could result in additional claims and material liabilities.

	●	We have been named as a defendant in a number of lawsuits filed by purchasers of our securities, including class action lawsuits that could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows, and our reputation.

	●	Matters relating to or arising from the restatement and the Internal Investigation, including adverse publicity and potential concerns from our users, customers or others with whom we do business, have had and could continue to have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

	●	In July 2022, we furloughed the majority of our employees and suspended our lottery game sales operations after determining that we did not have sufficient financial resources to fund our operations or pay certain existing obligations, including our payroll and related obligations. As a result, we may not be able to continue as a going concern.

	●	We need additional capital to, among other things, support and restart our operations, re-hire employees and pay our expenses. Such capital may not be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If we do not receive the additional capital, we may be forced to curtail or abandon our plans to recommence our operations and we may need to permanently cease our operations .

	●	If we fail to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may be unable to accurately report our results of operations, meet our reporting obligations or prevent fraud, and investor confidence and the trading price of our common stock and warrants may be materially and adversely affected.

	●	The circumstances that led to the failure to file our annual report and quarterly reports on time, and our efforts to investigate, assess and remediate those matters have caused and may continue to cause substantial delays in our SEC filings.

	●	Our inability to compete with other forms of entertainment for consumers’ discretionary time and income.

	●	Economic downturns, inflation, geopolitical and political and market conditions beyond our control.

	●	Negative events or media coverage relating to our business, our management and directors, the lottery, lottery games or online gaming or betting.

	●	Our inability to attract and retain users, including as a result of failing to appear in Internet search engine results.

	●	Our continued ability to use domain names to promote and increase the value of our brand.

	●	Scrutiny by stakeholders with respect to responsible gaming and ethical conduct.

	●	Our ability to achieve profitability and growth in the newly-developed market for online lottery games.

	●	Our inability to profitably expand into new markets or capitalize on new gaming and lottery industry trends and changes, such as by developing successful new product offerings.

	●	The effectiveness of our marketing efforts in developing and maintaining our brand and reputation.

	●	Failure to offer high-quality user support.

	●	Adverse impacts to user relationships resulting from disruptions to our information technology.

	●	The vulnerability of our information systems to cyberattacks and disruptions caused with respect thereto, including an inability to securely maintain personal and other proprietary user information.

	●	Our inability to adapt to changes or updates in the Internet, mobile or personal devices, or new technology platforms or network infrastructures.

	●	The exposure of our online infrastructure to risks relating to new and untested distributed ledger technology.

	●	Our inability to comply with complex, ever-changing and multi-jurisdictional regulatory regimes and other legal requirements applicable to the gaming and lottery industries.

	●	Geopolitical shifts and changes in applicable laws or regulations or the manner in which they are interpreted.

	●	Our inability to successfully expand geographically and acquire and integrate new operations.

	●	Our dependence on third-party service providers to timely perform services or software component products for our gaming platforms, product offerings and the processing of user payments and withdrawals.

	●	Our inability to maintain successful relationships and/or agreements with lottery organizations and other third-party marketing or service provider affiliates.

iii

	●	Failure of third-party service providers to protect, enforce, or defend intellectual property rights required to fulfill contractual obligations required for the operation of our business.

	●	The effectiveness of our transition and compliance with the regulatory and other requirements of being a newly public company.

	●	Although we are currently in compliance with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq, we have had periods of non-compliance in the past and we may not be able to maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards in the future.

	●	Limited liquidity and trading of our securities.

	●	Lenders may not loan us the amounts they agreed to under existing Loan Agreements.

	●	Our obligations under the Loan Agreement (as defined herein) are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our assets and if we were to default, they could force us to curtail or abandon our business plans and operations.

	●	The issuance and sale of common stock upon conversion of the amounts owed or upon exercise of the warrants issued to Woodford or UCIL (as defined herein) under their Loan Agreements may depress the market price of our common stock and cause substantial dilution .

	●	We currently owe a significant amount of money under our Loan Agreements, which we may not be able to repay.

The risks described herein or in the “Risk Factors” sections of our other public filings referenced above are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Report describe additional factors that could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business, or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. You should not put undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. We undertake no obligations to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

LOTTERY.COM INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023

1. Nature of Operations

Description of Business

Lottery.com Inc. (formerly Trident Acquisitions Corp) (“TDAC”, “Lottery.com” or “the Company”), was formed as a Delaware corporation on March 17, 2016. On October 29, 2021, we consummated a business combination (the “Business Combination”) with AutoLotto, Inc. (“AutoLotto”) pursuant to the terms of a Business Combination Agreement, dated February 21, 2021 (“Business Combination Agreement”). Following the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”) we changed our name from “Trident Acquisitions Corp.” to “Lottery.com Inc.” and the business of AutoLotto became our business. In connection with the Business Combination, we moved our headquarters from New York, New York to AutoLotto’s offices in Spicewood, Texas.

We are a provider of domestic and international lottery products and services. As an independent third-party lottery game service, we offer a platform developed and operated by us to enable the remote purchase of legally sanctioned lottery games in the U.S. and abroad (the “Platform”). Our revenue generating activities are focused on (i) offering the Platform via the Lottery.com app and our websites to users located in the U.S. and international jurisdictions where the sale of lottery games is legal and our services are enabled for the remote purchase of legally sanctioned lottery games (our “B2C Platform”); (ii) offering an internally developed, created and operated business-to-business application programming interface (“API”) of the Platform to enable commercial partners in permitted U.S. and international jurisdictions to purchase certain legally operated lottery games from us and resell them to users located within their respective jurisdictions (“B2B API”); and (iii) delivering global lottery data, such as winning numbers and results, to commercial digital subscribers and providing access to other proprietary, anonymized transaction data pursuant to multi-year contracts (“Data Service”).

We have been a provider of lottery products and services and our business has been and continues to be subject to regulation in each jurisdiction in which we offer the B2C Platform, or a commercial partner offers users access to lottery games through the B2B API. In addition, we must also comply with the requirements of federal and other domestic and foreign regulatory bodies and governmental authorities in jurisdictions in which we operate or with authority over our business. Our business is also subject to multiple other domestic and international laws, including those relating to the transmission of information, privacy, security, data retention, and other consumer focused laws, and, as such, may be impacted by changes in the interpretation of such laws.

On June 30, 2021, we acquired an interest in Medios Electronicos y de Comunicacion, S.A.P.I de C.V. (“Aganar”) and JuegaLotto, S.A. de C.V. (“JuegaLotto”). Aganar is authorized to operate in the licensed iLottery market in Mexico since 2007 as an online retailer of Mexican National Lottery draw games, instant digital scratch-off games and other games of chance. JuegaLotto is authorized by the Mexican federal regulatory authorities to sell international lottery games in Mexico.

On July 28, 2022, the Board of Directors determined that the Company did not currently have sufficient financial resources to fund its operations or pay certain existing obligations, including its payroll and related obligations and effectively ceased its operations furloughing certain employees effective July 29, 2022 (the “Operational Cessation”). Subsequently, the Company has had minimal day-to-day operations and has primarily focused its operations on restarting certain aspects of its core business (the “Plans for Recommencement of Company Operations”).

On November 15, 2022, the Company formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Sports.Com, Inc., as a Texas corporation (the “New Subsidiary”). The New Subsidiary will share the same principal address as the Company. In connection therewith, on November 19, 2022, the Company filed in the State of Texas a “doing business as” assumed name registration under the name, “Sports.Com”, and intends to file additional assumed name registrations under this name in other U.S. and foreign jurisdictions.

On April 25, 2023, as part of the Plans for Recommencement of Company Operations, the Company resumed its ticket sales operations to support an affiliate partner through its Texas retail network.

2. Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and classification of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

F-5

Pursuant to the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-40, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, management must evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date these financial statements are issued. This evaluation does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented or are not within control of the Company as of the date the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

The Company has experienced recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $219 million and a working capital of approximately negative $2.8 million at September 30, 2023. The Company had loss from operations of $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

The Company has historically funded its activities almost exclusively from debt and equity financing. Management’s plans in order to meet its operating cash flow requirements include financing activities such as private placements of its common stock, preferred stock offerings, and issuances of debt and convertible debt. Although Management believes that it will be able to continue to raise funds by sale of its securities to provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations through borrowings under the Woodford Loan Agreement and/or the UCIL Loan Agreement (see Note 8. Notes Payable ), the Plans for Recommencement of Company Operations require substantial funds to implement and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to continue raising the required capital.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements depends on its ability to execute its business plan, increase revenues, and reduce expenditures. Such conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

We will require additional financing to continue to execute on our business plan. However, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in raising the additional capital necessary to continue operations and execute on our business plan.

3. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Certain footnotes and other financial information normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. In management’s opinion, these condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary for fair presentation. The operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 has been derived from our unaudited financial statements at that date but does not include all disclosures and financial information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 15, 2023 (the “Annual Report”).

F-6

Impact of Trident Acquisition Corp. Business Combination

We accounted for the October 29, 2021 Business Combination as a reverse recapitalization whereby AutoLotto was determined as the accounting acquirer and TDAC as the accounting acquiree. This determination was primarily based on:

	●	former AutoLotto stockholders having the largest voting interest in Lottery.com;

	●	the Board of Directors of Lottery.com having not less than 5 members, and TDAC only having the ability under the Business Combination Agreement to nominate one member to the Board of Directors for an initial two year term;

	●	AutoLotto management continuing to hold executive management roles for the post-Business Combination entity and being responsible for the day-to-day operations;

	●	the post-Business Combination entity assuming the Lottery.com name, which was the assumed name under which AutoLotto conducted business;

	●	Lottery.com maintaining the pre-existing AutoLotto headquarters; and

	●	the intended strategy of Lottery.com being a continuation of AutoLotto’s strategy.

Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of AutoLotto issuing stock for the net assets of TDAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of TDAC are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

While TDAC was the legal acquirer in the Business Combination, because AutoLotto was determined to be the accounting acquirer, the historical financial statements of AutoLotto became the historical financial statements of the combined company, upon the consummation of the Business Combination. As a result, the financial statements included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect (i) the historical operating results of AutoLotto prior to the Business Combination; (ii) the combined results of the Company and AutoLotto following the Closing; (iii) the assets and liabilities of AutoLotto at their historical cost; and (iv) our equity structure for all periods presented.

In connection with the Business Combination transaction, we have converted the equity structure for the periods prior to the Business Combination to reflect the number of shares of our common stock issued to AutoLotto’s stockholders in connection with the recapitalization transaction. As such, the shares, corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share, as applicable, related to AutoLotto convertible preferred stock and common stock prior to the Business Combination have been retroactively converted by applying the exchange ratio established in the Business Combination.

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests represent the proportionate ownership of Aganar and JuegaLotto, held by minority members and reflect their capital investments as well as their proportionate interest in subsidiary losses and other changes in members’ equity, including translation adjustments.

F-7

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by our management in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing operating performance. Under the provisions of ASC 280-10, “Segment Reporting” (“ASC 280”), we are not organized around specific services or geographic regions. We operate in one service line, providing lottery products and services.

Our management uses financial information, business prospects, competitive factors, operating results and other non-U.S. GAAP financial ratios to evaluate our performance, which is the same basis on which our results and performance are communicated to our Board of Directors. Based on the information described above and in accordance with the applicable literature, management has concluded that we are organized and operated as one operating and reportable segment on a condensed consolidated basis for each of the periods presented.

Concentration of Credit Risks

Financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash. Cash is placed with major financial institutions deemed to be of high-credit-quality in order to limit credit exposure. Cash is regularly maintained in excess of federally insured limits at the financial institutions. Management believes that we are not exposed to any significant credit risk related to cash deposits.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions to determine the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Although management believes these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from these estimates. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis and prepare our estimates on the basis of historical experience using assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Foreign currency translation

The financial statements of the Company’s significant non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated into United States dollars in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”, using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues, costs and expenses and historical rates for equity. Resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded directly in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of shareholders’ deficit. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss when realized.

F-8

Cash

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents were comprised of cash deposits. Certain deposits with some banks exceeded federally insured limits with the majority of cash held in one financial institution. Management believes all financial institutions holding its cash are of high credit quality and does not believe we are subject to unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships.

The Company had no marketable securities as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Accounts Receivable

Through the various merchant providers used by us, we pre-authorize forms of payment prior to the sale of digital representation of lottery games to minimize exposure to losses related to uncollected payments and we do not extend credit to the user of the B2C Platform or the commercial partner of the B2B API, or its customers, in the normal course of business. We estimate our bad debt exposure each period and record a bad debt provision for accounts receivable we believe may not be collected in full. The Company had an allowance for uncollectible receivables of $84,520 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Prepaid Expenses

Prepaid expenses consist of payments made on contractual obligations for services to be consumed in future periods. The Company entered into an agreement with a third party to provide advertising services and issued equity instruments as compensation for the advertising services. The Company expenses the service as it is performed. The value of the services provided was used to value these contracts. The current portion of prepaid expenses is included in current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Investments

On August 2, 2018, AutoLotto purchased 186,666 shares of Class A-1 common stock of a third-party business development partner representing 4% of the total outstanding shares of such company. As this investment resulted in less than 20% ownership, it was accounted for using the cost basis method.

Property and equipment, net

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are generally computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. Routine maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. The costs of major additions, replacements and improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses realized on the sale or disposal of property and equipment are recognized or charged to other expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Computers and equipment			3 years
Furniture and fixtures			5 years
Software			3 years

F-9

Notes Receivable

Notes receivable consist of contracts where the Company has loaned funds to outside parties. The Company accrues interest receivable over the term of the outstanding notes and reviews for doubtful collectability periodically but in no instance less than annually .

Leases

Right-of-use assets (“ROU assets”) represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Variable lease payments are not included in the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability due to uncertainty of the payment amount and are recorded as lease expense in the period incurred. As most of the leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Otherwise, the implicit rate was used when readily determinable. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Under the available practical expedient, the Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets as both a lessee and lessor. Further, management elected a short-term lease exception policy on all classes of underlying assets, permitting the Company to not apply the recognition requirements of this standard to short-term leases (i.e. leases with terms of 12 months or less).

Internal Use Software Development

Software development costs incurred internally to develop software programs to be used solely to meet our internal needs and applications are capitalized once the preliminary project stage is complete and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the intended function. Additionally, we capitalize qualifying costs incurred for upgrades and enhancements to existing software that result in additional functionality. Costs related to preliminary project planning activities, post-implementation activities, maintenance and minor modifications are expensed as incurred. Internal-use software development costs are amortized on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the software.

Software License

Software license represents the Company’s license agreements for third party software, which are amortized over their estimated economic lives.

Customer relationships

Customer relationships are finite-lived intangible assets, which are amortized over their estimated economic lives. Customer relationships are generally recognized as the result of business combinations.

Gaming Licenses

The Company incurs fees in connection with applying for and maintaining good standing in jurisdictions via business licenses. Fees incurred in connection with the application and subsequent renewals are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life. These fees are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of their expected benefit under the partnership agreement or estimated useful life.

Trademarks and Tradenames

The Company incurs fees in connection with applying for and maintaining trademarks and tradenames as well as trademarks and tradenames resulting from acquisitions. Fees incurred in connection with the application and subsequent renewals are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life.

F-10

Domain Name

Domain name represents the cost incurred to purchase website domain names which are being amortized on a straight-line method over estimated useful lives.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, except for goodwill, consist of property and equipment and finite-lived acquired intangible assets, such as internal-use software, software licenses, customer relationships, gaming licenses, trademarks, tradenames and customer relationships. Long-lived assets, except for goodwill and indefinite-lived assets, are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be fully recoverable. Impairment expense is recognized to the extent an asset’s expected undiscounted future cash flows are less than the asset’s carrying amount.

Goodwill

The Company’s business is classified into one reporting unit. In testing goodwill for impairment, the Company has the option to begin with a qualitative assessment, commonly referred to as “Step 0,” to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit containing goodwill is less than its carrying value. This qualitative assessment may include, but is not limited to, reviewing factors such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, entity-specific financial performance and other events, such as changes in the Company’s management, strategy and primary user base. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company performs a quantitative goodwill impairment analysis by comparing the carrying amount to the fair value of the reporting unit. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, goodwill will be written down to the fair value and recorded as impairment expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company performs its impairment testing annually and when circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.

Revenue Recognition

Under the new standard, ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASC 606”), the Company recognizes revenues when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of a contract with a customer exists; (ii) identifiable performance obligations under the contract exist; (iii) the transaction price is determinable for each performance obligation; (iv) the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation; and (v) when the performance obligations are satisfied. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

Lottery game revenue

Items that fall under this revenue classification include:

Lottery game sales

The Company’s performance obligations of delivering lottery games are satisfied at the time in which the digital representation of the lottery game is delivered to the user of the B2C Platform or the commercial partner of the B2B API, therefore, revenue is recognized at a point in time. The Company receives consideration for lottery game sales at the time of delivery to the customer, either the user or commercial partner, as applicable. There is no variable consideration related to lottery game sales. As each individual lottery game delivered represents a distinct performance obligation and consideration for each game sale is fixed, representing the standalone selling price, there is no allocation of consideration necessary.

F-11

In accordance with ASC 606, the Company evaluates the presentation of revenue on a gross versus net basis dependent on if the Company is a principal or agent. In making this evaluation, some of the factors that are considered include whether the Company has control over the specified good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The Company also assesses if it is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified good or service, has inventory risk, and has discretion in establishing the price. For all of the Company’s transactions, management concluded that gross presentation is appropriate, as the Company is primarily responsible for providing the performance obligation directly to the customers and assumes fulfillment risk of all lottery game sales as it retains physical possession of lottery game sales tickets from time of sale until the point of redemption. The Company also retains inventory risk on all lottery game sales tickets as they are responsible for any potential winnings related to lost or unredeemable tickets at the time of redemption. Finally, while each jurisdiction establishes the face value of the lottery ticket, representing the game sales prices, the Company charges a separate and additional fee for the services it provides.

Affiliate marketing credit revenue

The Company’s performance obligation in agreements with certain customers is to transfer previously acquired affiliate marketing credits (“credits”). Customers’ payment for these credits is priced on a per-contract basis. The performance obligation in these agreements is to provide title rights of the previously acquired credits to the customer. This transfer is point-in-time when the revenue is recognized, and there are no variable considerations related to this performance obligation.

Arrangements with multiple performance obligations

The Company’s contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, management allocates revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Management generally determines standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to customers.

Deferred Revenue

The Company records deferred revenue when cash payments are received or due in advance of any performance, including amounts which are refundable.

Payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. For certain products or services and customer types, management requires payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer.

Contract Assets

Given the nature of the Company’s services and contracts, it has no contract assets.

Taxes

Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with specific revenue-producing transactions, that are collected by us from a customer, are excluded from revenue.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists primarily of variable costs, comprising (i) the cost of procurement of lottery games, minus winnings to users, additional expenses related to the sale of lottery games, including, commissions, affiliate fees and revenue shares; and (ii) payment processing fees on user fees, including, chargebacks imposed on the Company. Non-variable costs included in cost of revenue include affiliate marketing credits acquired on a per-contract basis.

F-12

Stock-based Compensation

Effective October 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2018-07, Compensation – “Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting” (“ASC 718”), which addresses aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions and accounts for share-based awards to employees in accordance with ASC 718. Under this guidance, stock compensation expense is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the estimated service period (generally the vesting period) on the straight-line attribute method.

Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period. As of September 30, 2023, the Company excluded 10,456 stock options, 23,417 restricted awards, 24,415 warrants, 100,000 earn out shares and 87,500 unit purchase options respectively in the calculation of diluted loss per share, as the effect would be anti-dilutive due to losses incurred.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on our accounting and reporting. We believe that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on our accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to our financial position, results of operations and cash flows when implemented.

4. Business Combination

TDAC Combination

On October 29, 2021, the Company and AutoLotto consummated the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. At the Closing, each share of common stock and preferred stock of AutoLotto that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Business Combination (other than excluded shares as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement) was canceled and converted into the right to receive approximately 3.0058 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of Lottery.com. common stock.

The Business Combination closing was a triggering event for the Series B convertible notes, of which $63.8 million was converted into 162,426 shares of AutoLotto that were then converted into 488,226 shares of Lottery.com common stock using the Exchange Ratio.

At the Closing, each option to purchase AutoLotto’s common stock, whether vested or unvested, was assumed and converted into an option to purchase a number of shares of Lottery.com common stock in the manner set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.

The Company accounted for the Business Combination as a reverse recapitalization whereby AutoLotto was determined as the accounting acquirer and TDAC as the accounting acquiree. Refer to Note 3, Significant Accounting Policies, for further details. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of AutoLotto issuing stock for the net assets of TDAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of TDAC are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes reflect the historical results of AutoLotto prior to the merger and do not include the historical results of TDAC prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

Upon the Closing, AutoLotto received total net proceeds of approximately $42,794,000 from TDAC’s trust and operating accounts. Total transaction costs were approximately $9,460,000, which principally consisted of advisory, legal and other professional fees and were recorded in additional paid in capital. Cumulative debt repayments of approximately $11,068,000, inclusive of accrued but unpaid interest, were paid in conjunction with the close, which included approximately $5,475,000 repayment of notes payable to related parties, and approximately $5,593,000 payment of accrued underwriter fees.

F-13

Pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the holders of issued and outstanding shares of AutoLotto prior to the Closing (the “Sellers”) were entitled to receive up to 300,000 additional shares of common stock (the “Seller Earnout Shares”) and Vadim Komissarov, Ilya Ponomarev and Marat Rosenberg (collectively the “TDAC Founders”) were also entitled to receive up to 200,000 additional shares of common stock (the “TDAC Founder Earnout Shares” and, together with the Seller Earnout Shares, the “Earnout Shares”). None of the earnout criteria had not been met by the December 31, 2021 and 2022 deadlines set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, thus no Seller Earnout Shares or TDAC Founder Earnout Shares were granted, accordingly, none of the Seller Earnout Shares and TDAC Founder Earnout Shares remain eligible to be earned.

5. Prepaid Expenses

Prepaid expenses consists primarily of advertising credits from two top tier media organizations that operate in the United States. The advertising credits were obtained in return for warrants, shares of common stock and shares of preferred stock. The agreements do not specify a time period for utilizing these credits and there is no requirement to provide cash or other consideration in connection with utilizing them. The balance can be utilized at any time at the mutual consent of the parties. The Company expects to begin utilizing these credits in the fourth quarter of 2023 or first quarter of 2024 and anticipates fully utilizing all of them by the end of 2024. Accordingly, they are presented as current assets.

6. Notes Receivable

On March 22, 2022, the Company entered into a three-year secured promissory note agreement with a principal amount of $2,000,000. The note bears simple interest at the rate of approximately 3.1% annually, due upon maturity of the note. The note is secured by all assets, accounts, and tangible and intangible property of the borrower and can be prepaid any time prior to its maturity date. As of September 30, 2023, the entire $2,000,000 in principle was outstanding.

This note was received in consideration for a portion of the development work that the Company performed for the borrower who had intended to use the Company’s technology to launch its own online game in a jurisdiction outside the U.S., where the Company is unlikely to operate.

9. Other Long Term Assets

In the Spring of 2022, the Company made an investment of $16.5 million with a subsidiary of J. Streicher Financial, LLC. In the Summer of 2023, when the Company sought return of part of all of the investment, the Streicher subsidiary was unable to return the funds. The Company sued Streicher in Delaware Chancery Court and won a judgement against Streicher on September 6, 2022. The company is currently pursuing collection against the judgement.

Definitive terms for payment from Streicher have not been agreed upon by the parties and the Company anticipates that Streicher will pay it over a period of time that may exceed one year. While the Company expects to recover from Streicher 100% of its attorney fees incurred in connection with the Delaware Chancery Court proceedings, as a conservative measure it reduced the total amount owed from $16.5 million to $15 million, which difference represents attorney fees related to winning the judgement. Because the payments are expected to be received over time, the company discounted the cash flows and recorded a net amount of $13,009,685 after allowing for attorney fees and applying discounting and reported that amount in its financial statements from March 31, 2022 to December 31, 2022. During the first quarter of 2023, Streicher made payments totaling approximately $125,000 reducing the balance to $12,884,686. Because the timing of receipt from Streicher has not been agreed to and may extend beyond one year, the Company is presenting this balance as a long term asset.

10. Notes Payable and Convertible Debt

Series A Notes

From August to October 2017, the Company entered into seven Convertible Promissory Note Agreements with unaffiliated investors for an aggregate amount of $821,500. The notes bear interest at 10% per year, are unsecured, and were due and payable on June 30, 2019. The parties verbally agreed to extend the maturity of the notes to December 31, 2022. The Company cannot prepay the loans without consent from the noteholders. As of September 30, 2023, there have been no Qualified Financing events that trigger conversion , accordingly the remaining outstanding balance of $771,500 is no longer convertible and has been reclassified to Notes Payable as per the agreement. Accrued interest on the notes payable was $318,909 at September 30, 2023. These Notes Payable are in default.

Series B Notes

From November 2018 to December 2020, the Company entered into multiple Convertible Promissory Note agreements with unaffiliated investors for an aggregate amount of $8,802,828. The notes bear interest at 8% per year, are unsecured, and were due and payable on dates ranging from December 2020 to December 2021. For those notes maturing on or before December 31, 2020, the parties entered into amendments in February 2021 to extend the maturity of the notes to December 21, 2021. The Company cannot prepay the loans without consent from the noteholders.

F-15

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company entered into multiple Convertible Promissory Note agreements with unaffiliated investors for an aggregate amount of $38,893,733. The notes bear interest at 8% per year, are unsecured, and are due and payable on dates ranging from December 2021 to December 2022. The Company cannot prepay the loans without consent from the noteholders. As of December 31, 2021, the Series B Convertible Notes had a balance of $0.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company entered into amendments with six of the Series B promissory noteholders to increase the principal value of the notes. The additional principal associated with the amendments totaled $3,552,114. The amendments were accounted for as a debt extinguishment, whereby the old debt was derecognized and the new debt was recorded at fair value. The Company recorded loss on extinguishment of $71,812 as a result of the amendment which is included in “Other expenses” on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss .

As of October 29, 2021, all except $185,095 of the series B convertible notes were converted into 488,226 shares of Lottery.com common stock, accordingly, the remaining outstanding balance of $185,095 is no longer convertible and has been reclassified to notes payable (See Note 3). Accrued interest on this note as of September 30, 2023 is $61,067.

Woodford Funding

The Company received funding that became available through Woodford Eurasia Assets, Ltd. (“Woodford”), which entered into a loan agreement with the Company on December 7, 2022 (the “Woodford Loan Agreement”). Pursuant to the Woodford Loan Agreement, Woodford agreed to fund up to $2.5 million, subject to certain conditions and requirements, of which approximately $991,000 has been received to date. The parties may also mutually agree to increase the amount of the funding to $52.5 million (i.e., an additional $50 million). Amounts borrowed accrue interest at the rate of 12% per annum (22% per annum upon the occurrence of an event of default) and are due within 12 months of the date of each loan. Amounts borrowed can be repaid at any time without penalty.

Amounts borrowed pursuant to the Woodford Loan Agreement are convertible into the Company’s common stock, beginning 60 days after the first loan date, at the option of the lender, at the rate of 80% of the lowest publicly available price per share of Company common stock within 10 business days of the date of the agreement (which was equal to $5.60 per share), subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation and a separate limitation preventing the holder from holding more than 19.99% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, without the Company obtaining shareholder approval for such issuance.

Conditions to the loan included the resignation of four of the then members of the Board of Directors (Lisa Borders, Steven M. Cohen, Lawrence Anthony DiMatteo and William Thompson, all of which persons subsequently resigned from the Board of Directors), and the appointment of two new directors (who have been appointed). Subsequent loans under the Woodford Loan Agreement also require our compliance with all listing requirements, unless waived by Woodford. The Woodford Loan Agreement also allows Woodford to nominate another director to the Board of Directors, in the event any independent member of the Board of Directors resigns.

Proceeds of the loans can only be used by us for restarting our operations, and for general corporate purposes agreed to by Woodford.

The Woodford Loan Agreement includes confidentiality obligations, representations, warranties, covenants, and events of default, which are customary for a transaction of this size and nature. Included in the Woodford Loan Agreement are covenants prohibiting us from (a) making any loan in excess of $1 million or obtaining any loan in an amount exceeding $1 million without the consent of Woodford, which may not be unreasonably withheld; (b) selling more than $1 million in assets; (c) maintaining less than enough assets to perform our obligations under the Woodford Loan Agreement; (d) encumbering any assets, except in the normal course of business, and not in an amount to exceed $1 million; (e) amending or restating our governing documents; (f) declaring or paying any dividend; (g) issuing any shares which negatively affects Woodford; and (h) repurchasing any shares.

F-16

We also agreed to grant warrants to Woodford to purchase 15% of the 2,546,264 issued and outstanding shares of the company’s common stock, with an exercise price equal to the average of the Nasdaq Official Closing Price for each of the ten days prior to the first amount being debited from the bank account of Woodford, which equates to an exercise price of $5.60 per share. In the event we fail to repay the amounts borrowed when due or Woodford fails to convert the amount owed into shares, the exercise price of the warrants may be offset by amounts owed to Woodford, and in such case, the exercise price of the warrants will be subject to a further 25% discount (i.e., will equal $4.20 per share).

UCIL Financing

On July 26, 2023, the Company entered into a credit facility (the “UCIL Credit Facility”), which is represented by a loan agreement, which was initially entered into on July 26, 2023 and was amended and restated on August 8, 2023 and subsequently amended on August 18, 2023 (as so amended, the “UCIL Loan Agreement”), with United Capital Investments London Limited (“UCIL”), an entity in which each of Matthew McGahan, the Company’s interim Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Company’s Board, and Barney Battles, a member of the Board, have a direct or indirect interest. The decision by the Company to enter into the UCIL Loan Agreement follows an acknowledgment by the Company amongst other things, that it had not received the requisite funding on a timely basis that it expected from Woodford, despite the Company making several requests to Woodford for said funding under the Woodford Loan Agreement. Moreover, the Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to enter into the UCIL Loan Agreement with UCIL, as an alternative lender to Woodford, upon receiving an event of default notice on July 21, 2023 (the “Default Notice”) and an event of default and crystallization notice on July 25, 2023 (the “Crystallization Notice”) from Woodford under the Woodford Loan Agreement. On July 24, 2023, the Company responded to the Default Notice disputing that an event of default had occurred given the Company’s earlier announcement that UCIL had agreed to enter into a funding arrangement with the Company. On July 27, 2023, the Company replied to the Crystallization Notice denying that an event of default occurred or continued, and further asserted that Woodford’s attempt for crystallization was inappropriate and unlawful under the Woodford Loan Agreement. Given the uncertainty of the continued financing under the Woodford Loan Agreement, the Board of Directors sought to secure and formalize the Company’s alternative funding by entering into the UCIL Loan Agreement.

Short term loans

On June 29, 2020, the Company entered into a Promissory Note with the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) for $150,000. The loan has a thirty-year term and bears interest at a rate of 3.75% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments were deferred for twelve months after the date of disbursement. The loan may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The Promissory Note contains events of default and other provisions customary for a loan of this type. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance of the loan was $150,000. As of September 30, 2023, the accrued interest on this note was $4,874.

In August 2020, the Company entered into three separate note payable agreements with three individuals for an aggregate amount of $37,199. The notes bear interest at variable rates, are unsecured, and the parties verbally agreed the notes would be due upon a qualifying financing event. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the balance of the loans totaled $13,000.

Notes payable

On August 28, 2018, in connection with the purchase of the entire membership interest of TinBu, the Company entered into several notes payable totaling $12,674,635 with the sellers of the TinBu and a broker involved in the transaction. The notes had an initial interest rate of 0%, and original maturity date of January 25, 2022. The notes payable were modified during 2021 to extend the maturity to June 30, 2022 and the interest rate was modified to include simple interest of 4.1% per annum effective October 1, 2021. Each of the amendments were evaluated and determined to be loan modifications and accounted for accordingly. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance of the notes was $2,336,081. These notes payable are in default.

11. Stockholders’ Equity

Reverse Split

On August 9, 2023, the Company amended its Charter to implement, effective at 5:30 p.m., Eastern time, a 1-for-20 Reverse Stock Split. At the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, every 20 shares of common stock either issued and outstanding or held as treasury stock were automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, without any change in the par value per share. Stockholders who would have otherwise been entitled to fractional shares of common stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split received a cash payment in lieu of receiving fractional shares. In addition, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, proportionate adjustments will be made to the number of shares of common stock underlying the Company’s outstanding equity awards, the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the Company’s outstanding warrants and the number of shares issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans and certain existing agreements, as well as the exercise, grant and acquisition prices of such equity awards and warrants, as applicable. The Reverse Stock Split was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on August 7, 2023 and was subsequently approved by the Board of Directors on August 7, 2023.

The effects of the Reverse Stock Split have been reflected in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for all periods presented.

Preferred Stock

Pursuant to the Company’s charter, the Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. Our Board of Directors has the authority without action by the stockholders, to designate and issue shares of preferred stock in one or more classes or series, and the number of shares constituting any such class or series, and to fix the voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights of each class or series of preferred stock, including, without limitation, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, which rights may be greater than the rights of the holders of the common stock. As of June 30, 2023, there were no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Common Stock

Our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, authorizes the issuance of an aggregate of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The shares of common stock are duly authorized, issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Our purpose is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may now or hereafter be organized under the DGCL. Unless our Board determines otherwise, we will issue all shares of our common stock in uncertificated form. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up and after payment in full of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and to the holders of preferred stock having liquidation preferences, if any, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive pro rata our remaining assets available for distribution.

F-17

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 2,518,822 and 2,522,225 shares of common stock, respectively, were outstanding. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company did not issue any additional shares of common stock.

Public Warrants

The Public Warrants became exercisable 30 days after the Closing as the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act). The S-1 registration became effective November 24, 2021. The Public Warrants will expire five years after October 29, 2021, which was the completion of the TDAC Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

	●	in whole and not in part;
	●	at a price of $0.20 per warrant;
	●	upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption;
	●	if, and only if, the last sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $320.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and
	●	if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. These warrants cannot be net cash settled by the Company in any event.

After giving effect to the Business Combination, there were 1,006,250 warrants to purchase shares of Common stock outstanding, 1,006,250 of which are Public Warrants and two of which were previously granted warrants of AutoLotto, which are now warrants of Lottery.com and are exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 19,784 shares of common stock.

Private Warrants

Private warrants of TDAC issued before the business combination were forfeited and did not transfer to the surviving entity.

Unit Purchase Option

On June 1, 2018, the Company sold to the underwriter (and its designees), for $100, an option to purchase up to a total of 87,500 Units exercisable at $240.00 per Unit (or an aggregate exercise price of $21,000,000) commencing on the consummation of the Business Combination. The 87,500 Units represented the right to purchase 87,500 shares of common stock and 87,500 warrants to purchase 87,500 shares of common stock. The unit purchase option could be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and expired on May 29, 2023. The Company accounted for the unit purchase option, inclusive of the receipt of $100 cash payment, as an expense of the Business Combination resulting in a charge directly to stockholders’ equity.

Common Stock Warrants

On February 15, 2022, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate 4,631 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $151.20 per share. The warrants were valued at $194,695 using a Black-Scholes pricing model.

The Company has classified the warrants as having Level 2 inputs and used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the warrants. The fair value at the issuance dates for the above warrants was based upon the following management assumptions:

Schedule of Fair Value of Assumptions

	Issuance dates
Risk-free interest rate		1.80	%
Expected dividend yield		0	%
Expected volatility		113.17	%
Term		3 years
Fair value of common stock	$	3.75

The Company did not issue any other warrants during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 or the year ended December 31, 2022. All outstanding warrants are fully vested and have a weighted average remaining contractual life of 3.6 years. The Company incurred expenses related to outstanding warrants of $0 and $194,695 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

F-19

Beneficial Conversion Feature – Convertible Debt

As detailed in Note 8 – Notes Payable and Convertible Debt, the Company has issued two series of convertible debt. Both issuances resulted in the recognition of the beneficial conversion features contained within both of the instruments. The Company recognized the proceeds allocable to the beneficial conversion feature of $8,480,697 as additional paid in capital and a corresponding debt discount of $2,795,000. This additional paid in capital is reflected in the condensed consolidated Statements of Equity for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022.

Earnout Shares

As detailed in Note 3 – as part of the TDAC Combination which occurred in October of 2021 a total of 5,000,000 Earnout Shares were eligible for issuance, subject to the occurrence of certain conditions, until December 31, 2022. Conditions required for earning those shares were not met, accordingly no Earnout Shares remain eligible for issuance.

12. Stock-based Compensation Expense

2015 Stock Option Plan

Prior to the Closing, AutoLotto had the AutoLotto, Inc. 2015 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the “2015 Plan”) in place. Under the 2015 Plan, incentive stock options could be granted at a price not less than fair market value of the AutoLotto common stock (the “AutoLotto Common Stock”). If the AutoLotto common stock was at the time of grant listed on any stock exchange, then such fair market value would be the closing selling price per share of AutoLotto common stock on the date in question on such stock exchange, as such price is officially quoted in the composite tape of transactions on such stock exchange and published in The Wall Street Journal. If there was no closing selling price for the common stock on the date in question, then the fair market value would be the closing selling price on the last preceding date for which such quotation exists. If the common stock is at the time not listed on any Stock Exchange, then the fair market value would be determined by the Board of Directors or the Committee acting in its capacity as administrator of the Plan after taking into account such factors as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate. The maximum number of shares of common stock that could have been issued over the term of the Plan could not exceed Twenty Two Thousand Five Hundred (22,500). Options are exercisable over periods not to exceed 10 years (five years for incentive stock options granted to holders of 10% or more of voting stock) from the date of grant. Shares of AutoLotto common stock issued under the 2015 Plan could, in the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be fully and immediately vested upon issuance or vest in one or more installments over the Participant’s period of service or upon attainment of specified performance objectives. The Plan Administrator could not impose a vesting schedule upon any option grant or the shares of common stock subject to that option which is more restrictive than twenty percent (20%) per year vesting, with the initial vesting to occur not later than one (1) year after the option grant date. However, such limitation shall not be applicable to any option grants made to individuals who are officers of the Corporation, non-employee Board members or independent consultants.

2021 Equity Incentive Plan

In connection with the Business Combination, our Board of Directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, the Lottery.com 2021 Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) under which 656,518 shares of Class A common stock were initially reserved for issuance. The 2021 Plan allows for the issuance of incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock or cash based awards. The number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock available for issuance under the 2021 Plan increases annually on the first day of each calendar year, beginning on and including January 1, 2022 and ending on and including January 1, 2031 by a number of shares of Company common stock equal to five percent of the total outstanding shares of Company common stock on the last day of the prior calendar year. The maximum number of incentive stock options which can be granted under the 2021 Plan is 656,518. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors may act prior to January 1st of a given year to provide that there will be no such increase in the share reserve for such year or that the increase in the share reserve for such year will be a lesser number of shares of Company common stock than would otherwise occur pursuant to the preceding sentence.

F-20

Stock Options

As of September 30, 2023, there were 10,456 stock options outstanding. The Company did not issue any new stock options during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

There was no stock-based compensation expense related to the employee options for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Restricted awards

The Company awarded restricted stock to employees on October 28, 2021, which was granted with various vesting terms including, service-based vesting, and performance-based vesting. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company has classified the restricted stock as equity.

For employee issuances, the measurement date is the date of grant, and the Company recognizes compensation expense for the grant of the restricted shares, over the service period for the restricted shares that vest over a period of multiple months or years and for performance-based vesting awards, the Company recognizes the expense when management believes it is probable the performance condition will be achieved. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had granted 191,622 shares with vesting to begin April 2022.

On April 29, 2022, restricted stock awards for certain employees vested and resulted in withholding tax for those employees. Given the limited trading liquidity of the Company’s common shares, the Company withheld 6,527 shares, valued at $47.60 per share (the closing price on April 29, 2022) from the employees, and paid the withholding tax on the employees’ behalf.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $358,349 of stock compensation expense related to the employee restricted stock grants. As of September 30, 2023, unrecognized stock-based compensation associated with the restricted stock awards is $2,986,246 which will be expensed over the next 1.04 years.

13. Income Taxes

We are required to file federal and state income tax returns in the United States. The preparation of these tax returns requires us to interpret the applicable tax laws and regulations in effect in such jurisdictions, which could affect the amount of tax paid by us. In consultation with our tax advisors, we base our tax returns on interpretations that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The tax returns, however, are subject to routine reviews by the various federal and state taxing authorities in the jurisdictions in which we file tax returns. As part of these reviews, a taxing authority may disagree with respect to the income tax positions taken by us (“uncertain tax positions”) and, therefore, may require us to pay additional taxes. As required under applicable accounting rules, we accrue an amount for our estimate of additional income tax liability, including interest and penalties, which we could incur as a result of the ultimate or effective resolution of the uncertain tax positions. We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences and carry-forwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

Indemnification Agreements

The Company enters into indemnification provisions under its agreements with other entities in its ordinary course of business, typically with members of its Board of Directors, Officers, business partners, customers, landlords, lenders and lessors. Under these provisions, the Company generally indemnifies and holds harmless the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party as a result of the Company’s activities or, in some cases, as a result of the indemnified party’s activities under the agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is unlimited. The Company has not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. As a result, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these agreements is minimal. Accordingly, the Company has no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Digital Securities

In 2018, the Company commenced an offering (the “LDC Offering”) of 285 million revenue participation interests (the “Digital Securities”) of net sweepstakes revenue of a wholly-owned entity of the Company, LDC Crypto Universal Public Company Limited (“LDC”); in February 2022, LTRY WinTogether, Inc. (“LTRY WinTogether”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company assumed the obligations and liabilities of LDC, including, without limitation, with respect to the Digital Securities. The Digital Securities do not have any voting rights, redemption rights, or liquidation rights, nor are they tied in any way to other equity securities of any other subsidiary of the Company or of the Company nor do they otherwise hold any rights that a holder of equity securities of LTRY WinTogether or the Company may have or that a holder of traditional equity securities or capital stock may have. Rather, each of the holders of the Digital Securities has a pro rata right to receive 7% of the net sweepstakes revenue. If the net sweepstakes revenue is zero for a given period, holders of the Digital Securities are not eligible to receive any cash distributions from any sweepstakes of LTRY WinTogether for such period. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company incurred an obligation to pay an aggregate amount of approximately $5,632 to holders of the outstanding Digital Securities. No additional obligations related to the holders of outstanding Digital Securities were incurred during the year ended December 31, 2022 or the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company has not satisfied the outstanding obligation for 2021 as of September 30, 2023.

Litigation and Other Loss

On March 13, 2023, John Brier, Bin Tu and JBBT, LLC (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) filed its original complaint against Lottery.com, Inc. f/k/a AutoLotto, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary TinBu, LLC (“TinBu”) (Company and TinBu collectively referred to herein as “Defendants”) in the Circuit Court of the 13^thJudicial District in and for Hillsborough County, Florida (the “Complaint”). The Complaint alleges breach of contract(s) and misrepresentation with alleged damages in excess of $4.6 million. On October 13, 2023, the Court granted the Defendants’ Motion to Stay Litigation and Discovery pending a ruling on its Motion to Compel Arbitration.

Restricted Cash and Letter of Credit

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company entered an agreement with a lending institution whereby the company pledged $30,000,000 as security for a line of credit. Under that agreement, $30,000,000 of company cash became restricted and remained restricted until the fourth quarter of 2022 when the bank took the $30,000,000 from the Company and extinguished the debt related to the line of credit. This was presented on the company’s Balance Sheet as a Contingent Liability from March 31, 2022 until the obligation was satisfied in October of 2022.

J. Streicher Financial

On July 29, 2022, the Company filed an original Verified Complaint for Breach of Contract and Specific Performance (the “Complaint”) against J. Streicher Financial, LLC (“Streicher”) in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Chancery Court”). In its Complaint, the Company alleged that Streicher breached a contract entered into by the parties on March 9, 2022, and demanded that Streicher return $16,500,000 it owes to the Company. On September 26, 2022, the Chancery Court entered an order in favor of the Company, Granting with Modifications Company’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment in the amount of $16,500,000 (the “Judgment”). On October 27, 2022, the Chancery Court further awarded the Company $397,036.94 in attorney’s fees (the “Fee Order”). On November 15, 2022, the Company initiated efforts against Streicher to seek collections on the Judgment and Fee Order. The Company subsequently engaged a collection firm to pursue Streicher as a judgment debtor on behalf of Company. Since being engaged, the collection firm has sought collections on Streicher by noticing Judgment-Debtor for Deposition by Oral Examination in Aid of Judgment and seeking post-judgment discovery, including interrogatories and requests for production.

In an effort to avoid post-judgment discovery, Streicher indicated a willingness to pay the judgment over time with interest and attempted to negotiate a settlement and forbearance agreement with the Company. Streicher’s original deadline to produce documents and respond to the post-judgment discovery was January 16, 2023, and the Deposition was scheduled to take place on January 19, 2023. On January 20, 2023, faced with post-judgment discovery and depositions, Streicher remitted a partial payment towards the Judgment in the amount of $75,000. On February 13, 2023, Streicher made another payment towards the Judgment in the amount of $50,000 and agreed to make another payment in the amount of $75,000 on February 28, 2023. Streicher failed to remit the payment on February 28, 2023, and as a result, the Company is proceeding with the post-judgment discovery and depositions, which was scheduled for March 16, 2023, provided that Streicher did not appear at such hearing. The Company intends to fully collect on the Judgment and intends to pursue all legal and equitable means to enforce the Judgment against Streicher until the Judgment is fully satisfied.

15. Related Party Transactions

The Company has entered into transactions with related parties. The Company regularly reviews these transactions; however, the Company’s results of operations may have been different if these transactions were conducted with nonrelated parties.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company entered into borrowing arrangements with the individual founders to provide operating cash flow for the Company. The Company paid $4,700 during the year ended December 31, 2020 and has an outstanding balance for these loans at September 30, 2023 of $13,000.

Services Agreement with Master Goblin Games, LLC

In March 2020, the Company entered into a service agreement (as amended, the “Service Agreement”), with Master Goblin Games, LLC (“Master Goblin”), an entity that is wholly-owned by our former CFO and President, Ryan Dickinson. Master Goblin leases retail locations in certain U.S. jurisdictions from which it operated tabletop game retail stores and, ancillary to such retail operations, acted as sales agent or retailer licensed by the state lottery commission of such jurisdiction to sell lottery game tickets from such retail stores. The Company acquired lottery games as requested by users from Master Goblin on a non-exclusive basis in such jurisdictions.

Pursuant to the Service Agreement, Master Goblin was authorized and approved by the Company to incur up to $100,000 in initial expenses per location for the commencement of operations at each location, including, without limitation, tenant improvements, furniture, inventory, fixtures and equipment, security and lease deposits, and licensing and filing fees. Similarly, pursuant to the Service Agreement, during each month of operation, Master Goblin was authorized to submit to the Company for reimbursement on-going expenses of up to $5,000 per location for actually incurred lease expenses. The initial expenses were to be submitted by Master Goblin to the Company upon Master Goblin securing a lease, and leases were only secured by Master Goblin in any location upon request of the Company. On-going expenses were submitted by Master Goblin to the Company for reimbursement on a monthly basis, subject to offset, and were recorded by the Company as an expense. To the extent Master Goblin had a positive net income in any month, exclusive of the sale of lottery games, such net income reduced or eliminated such reimbursable expenses for that month. In addition, from time to time Master Goblin might incur certain additional reimbursable expenses for the benefit of the Company. The Company paid Master Goblin an aggregate of approximately $440,000 and $800,000, including expense reimbursements under the Service Agreement and additional reimbursable expenses, during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. In January of 2023, the company paid $53,000 to Master Goblin Games for settlement of outstanding obligations of $316,919 and the parties mutually agreed to terminate the business relationship.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward- looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included herein and the sections entitled “Risk Factors” included in this Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (our “Annual Report”).

Overview

Internal Investigation and Operational Cessation

On July 6, 2022, the Company announced that the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) had retained outside counsel to conduct an independent investigation that revealed instances of non-compliance with state and federal laws concerning the states in which lottery tickets were procured as well as order fulfillment. The investigation also identified issues pertaining to the Company’s internal accounting controls (the “Internal Investigation”). Following a report on the filings of the Internal Investigation, on June 30, 2022, the Board terminated the employment of Ryan Dickinson as the Company’s President, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, effective July 1, 2022. Subsequently, the Company initiated a review of its cash balances and related disclosures as well as its revenue recognition processes and other internal accounting controls.

On July 20, 2022, Armanino LLP (“Armanino”), the Company’s registered independent public accountant for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, advised the Company that its audited financial statements of for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 Audit”) and the unaudited financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 (the “March 2022 Financials”), should no longer be relied upon. Armanino advised that it had determined, subsequent to the 2021 Audit and review of the March 2022 Financials, that the Company had entered into a line of credit in January 2022 that was not disclosed in the footnotes to the 2021 Audit and was not properly recorded in the March 2022 Financials (see Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements for more details).

On July 28, 2022, the Board determined that the Company did not have sufficient financial resources to fund its operations or pay certain existing obligations, including its payroll and related obligations, due to a significant misstatement of our cash balances.

The following day, on July 29, 2022, the Company effectively ceased operations (the “Operational Cessation”), when it furloughed the majority of its employees and generally suspended its lottery game sales. The Company’s remaining employees were limited to the heads of the product, information technology and human resources teams as well as the entire legal and compliance team. Within one week, several additional employees were recalled from furlough. All non-furloughed employees were retained, at the discretion of the Company’s then Chief Operating Officer and Chief Legal Officer, to provide the minimal business functions needed to address the Company’s legal and compliance issues and to secure necessary funding to resume the Company’s operations. Less than half of these non-furloughed employees remain active in the efforts to restore Company operations and as of September 30, 2023, approximately $3.46 million in outstanding payroll obligations remain unpaid.

On September 27, 2022, Armanino resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company, effective immediately.

On October 7, 2022, the Audit Committee approved the engagement of Yusufali & Associates, LLC, (“Yusufali”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm.

Since the Operational Cessation, the Company has had minimal day-to-day operations and has primarily focused its operations on restarting certain of its core businesses (as described in more detail under “—Plans for Recommencement of Company Operations” below), completing the restatement of the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 (which was included in Amendment No. 1 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, filed by the Company with the SEC on May 10, 2023 (the “Amended Annual Report”)) and the unaudited financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 (which was included in Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, filed by the Company with the SEC on May 15, 2023), and preparing and filing its other delinquent periodic reports, including this Report.

AutoLotto $30,000,000 Business Loan

On January 4, 2022, AutoLotto entered into a Business Loan Agreement (the “Business Loan”) with The Provident Bank (“Provident”), pursuant to which the Company borrowed $30,000,000 from Provident, which was evidenced by a $30,000,000 Promissory Note. The Promissory Note accrued interest at the rate of 2.750% per annum (7.750% upon the occurrence of an event of default) and had a maturity date of January 4, 2024. Monthly interest payments were due under the Promissory Note beginning February 4, 2022. The Promissory Note could be repaid at any time without penalty. The Promissory Note included customary events of default for a debt obligation of the size of the Promissory Note. The Business Loan included representations and warranties of AutoLotto and covenants (both positive and negative) which were customary of a customary for a transaction of this nature and size, including rights to set off. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, Provident could declare the entire amount owed immediately due and payable. The agreement required payment of a 1% commitment fee at the time of our entry into the Business Loan, and another 1% annual loan fee on the first year anniversary thereof.

In accordance with the terms of the Business Loan, upon entering into the agreement, $30,000,000 in a separate account with Provident was pledged as security for the amount outstanding under the loan (“Collateral Security”). The $30,000,000 Collateral Security became restricted and remained restricted until October 12, 2022, when AutoLotto defaulted on its obligations under the Business Loan and Provident foreclosed on the $30,000,000 of Collateral Security. The Collateral Security, which was in the form of restricted cash, was presented as a contingent liability on the Company’s balance sheet from March 31, 2022 until the obligation was satisfied in October of 2022. See Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information. Interest expense paid to Provident Bank in connection with the line of credit for January through the end of July of 2022 was $412,500. Interest totaling $167,000 for August 1 until the foreclosure occurred in mid October is owed to the bank and has been accrued in the company’s financial statements.

Loan Agreement with Woodford

On December 7, 2022, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Woodford Loan Agreement”) with Woodford Eurasia Assets, Ltd. (“Woodford”), pursuant to which Woodford agreed to provide the Company with up to $2.5 million, subject to certain conditions and requirements, of which approximately $991 thousand has been received to date. The parties may also mutually agree to increase the amount of the loan to $52.5 million (i.e., an additional $50 million). Amounts borrowed accrue interest at the rate of 12% per annum (or 22% per annum upon the occurrence of an event of default) and are due within 12 months of the date of each loan. Amounts borrowed can be repaid at any time without penalty.

Amounts borrowed pursuant to the Woodford Loan Agreement are convertible, at Woodford’s option, into shares of the Company’s common stock, beginning 60 days after the first loan date at the rate of 80% of the lowest publicly available price per share of common stock within 10 business days of the date of the Woodford Loan Agreement (which was equal to $5.60 per share), subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation and a separate limitation preventing Woodford from holding more than 19.99% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, without the Company obtaining shareholder approval for such issuance.

Conditions to the Woodford Loan Agreement included the resignation of four prior members of the Board (Lisa Borders, Steven M. Cohen, Lawrence Anthony DiMatteo and William Thompson, all of whom resigned from the Board in September 2022), and the appointment of two new independent directors. Subsequent loans under the Woodford Loan Agreement also require the Company to comply with all listing requirements, unless waived by Woodford. The Woodford Loan Agreement also allows Woodford to nominate another director to the Board, in the event any independent member of the Board resigns.

Proceeds of the loans can only be used by to restart the Company’s operations and for general corporate purposes agreed to by Woodford.

The Woodford Loan Agreement includes confidentiality obligations, representations, warranties, covenants, and events of default, which are customary for a transaction of this size and nature. Included in the Woodford Loan Agreement are covenants prohibiting us from (a) making any loan in excess of $1 million or obtaining any loan in amount exceeding $1 million without the consent of Woodford, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld; (b) selling more than $1 million in assets; (c) maintaining less than enough assets to perform our obligations under the Woodford Loan Agreement; (d) encumbering any assets, except in the normal course of business, and not in an amount to exceed $1 million; (e) amending or restating our governing documents; (f) declaring or paying any dividend; (g) issuing any shares which negatively affects Woodford; and (h) repurchasing any shares.

The Company also agreed to grant warrants to purchase shares of common stock to Woodford (the “Woodford Warrants”) in an amount equal to 15% of the Company’s 2,522,225 issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Each Woodford Warrant has an exercise price equal to the average of the closing price of the Company’s common stock for each of the ten days prior to the first amount being debited from the bank account of Woodford, which equates to an exercise price of $5.60 per share. In the event the Company fails to repay the amounts borrowed when due or Woodford fails to convert the amount owed into shares, the exercise price of the warrants may be offset by amounts owed to Woodford, and in such case, the exercise price of the warrants will be subject to a further 25% discount (i.e., will equal $4.20 per share).

In connection with our entry into the Woodford Loan Agreement, the Company also entered into a Loan Agreement Deed, Debenture Deed and Securitization, with Woodford (the “Security Agreement”), which provides Woodford with a first floating charge security interest over all present and future assets of the Company in order to secure the repayment of amounts owed under the Woodford Loan Agreement. The floating charge may be converted into a fixed charge upon the occurrence of certain events including: an event of default; if Woodford reasonably believes that any secured property may be in jeopardy or danger of being seized or sold; or if Woodford reasonably considers that it is desirable to protect its security interest. The floating charge may be automatically converted into a fixed charge upon the occurrence of certain other events. The Security Agreement prohibits the Company from providing any other security interest over our assets, even if secondary to Woodford, while the amounts borrowed under the Woodford Loan Agreement remain unpaid.

Loan Agreement with UCIL

On July 26, 2023, the Company entered into a credit facility (the “UCIL Credit Facility”) with United Capital Investments London Limited (“UCIL”). Each of Matthew McGahan, the Company’s interim Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board, and Barney Battles, a member of the Board, have a direct or indirect interest in UCIL. The UCIL Credit Facility consists of (a) funding in the principal amount of up to $1,000,000 to be paid in tranches over time and as requested by the Company (the “Initial Loan”), wherein in return for the Initial Loan the Company shall issue to UCIL a number of warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in an amount representing at least 4.5% but not exceeding 15% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock on the date of such issuance; and (b) an additional credit facility, at the Company’s written request and at UCIL’s sole discretion for an amount up to a total of $49,000,000 in additional financing (the “Accordion”) in subsequent funding tranches. The interest rate on the Initial Loan and the Accordion is 10% per annum. The UCIL Credit Facility provides that UCIL may elect, in its sole discretion, to convert an amount of the Initial Loan and the Accordion, together with accrued interest, into shares of common stock at a conversion price calculated in accordance with the terms of the UCIL Loan Agreement (as defined below). In addition, the UCIL Credit Facility includes certain customary representations, warranties and events of default subject to customary notice and cure rights. The UCIL Credit Facility is represented by a loan agreement, which was initially entered into on July 26, 2023. On August 8, 2023. the loan agreement was amended and restated (such agreement as so amended and restated, the “UCIL Loan Agreement”) to remove an option to purchase up to 100% of the shares of Sports.com, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, initially granted by the Company to UCIL. As of the date of this Report, UCIL has provided $797,556 of funding to the Company as part of the $1.2 million Initial Loan.

The decision by the Company to enter into the UCIL Loan Agreement follows an acknowledgment by the Company that it had not received the requisite funding on a timely basis that it expected from Woodford, despite the Company making several requests to Woodford for said funding under the Woodford Loan Agreement. Moreover, the Board determined that it was in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to enter into the UCIL Loan Agreement, as an alternative lender to Woodford, upon receiving an event of default notice on July 21, 2023 (the “Default Notice”) and an event of default and crystallization notice on July 25, 2023 (the “Crystallization Notice”) from Woodford under the Woodford Loan Agreement. On July 24, 2023, the Company responded to the Default Notice disputing that an event of default had occurred given the Company’s earlier announcement that UCIL had agreed to enter into a funding arrangement with the Company. On July 27, 2023, the Company replied to the Crystallization Notice denying that an event of default occurred or continued, and further asserted that Woodford’s attempt for crystallization was inappropriate and unlawful under the Woodford Loan Agreement. Given the uncertainty of the continued financing under the Woodford Loan Agreement, the Board sought to secure and formalize the Company’s alternative funding by entering into the UCIL Loan Agreement.

Reverse Stock Split

The effects of the Reverse Stock Split have been reflected in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for all periods presented.

International Expansion

In June 2021, we closed the acquisition of Global Gaming, which holds 80% of the equity of each of Aganar and JuegaLotto. Aganar operates in the licensed Online Lottery market in Mexico and is licensed to sell Mexican National Lottery draw games, instant win tickets, and other games of chance online with access to a federally approved online casino and sportsbook gaming license. JuegaLotto is licensed by Mexico authorities to commercialize international lottery games in Mexico through an authorized gaming portal and to commercialize games of chance in other countries throughout Latin America. As of December 31, 2022 (the most recent date available), Latin America’s estimated lottery market was approximately $11.8 billion across 26 countries. As of December 31, 2021 (the most recent date available), the addressable market in the countries that JuegaLotto and Aganar cover includes 652 million people and potential customers. We believe these acquisitions will provide inroads for the Company throughout Mexico and Latin America as we expand our international operations, expand our portfolio of products, and expose our existing products to new markets.

On April 22, 2023, the Company signed an exclusive affiliate agreement with International Gaming Alliance (IGA), to supply official Texas lottery tickets in the Dominican Republic. The Company began supplying these tickets in the Dominican Republic in July 2023

On September 28, 2023, we entered into an agreement to acquire Nook Holdings Limited. As part of the agreement, Nook will operate under the Sports.com brand. When the acquisition is finalized, we will have access to sports and wellness content and services in the Dubai and broader Middle Eastern market.

Operations Prior to Operational Cessation

Prior to the Operational Cessation, the Company was a provider of domestic and international lottery products and services. As an independent third-party lottery game service, we offered a platform that we developed and operated to enable the remote purchase of legally sanctioned lottery games in the U.S. and abroad (the “Platform”). Our revenue generating activities included (i) offering the Platform via our Lottery.com app and our websites to users located in the U.S. and international jurisdictions where the sale of lottery games was legal and our services were enabled for the remote purchase of legally sanctioned lottery games (our “B2C Platform”); (ii) offering an internally developed, created and operated business-to-business application programming interface (“API”) of the Platform, which enabled our commercial partners, in permitted U.S. and international jurisdictions, to purchase certain legally operated lottery games from us and to resell them to users located within their respective jurisdictions (“B2B API”); and (iii) delivering global lottery data, such as winning numbers and results, and subscriptions to data sets of our proprietary, anonymized transaction data pursuant to multi-year contracts to commercial digital subscribers (“Data Service”).

Mobile Lottery Game Platform Services

Both our B2C Platform and our B2B API provided users with the ability to purchase legally sanctioned draw lottery games via a mobile device or computer, securely maintain their acquired lottery game, automatically redeem a winning lottery game, as applicable, and receive support, if required, for the claims and redemption process. Our registration and user interfaces were designed to be easy to use, provide for the creation of an account and purchase of a lottery game with minimum friction and without the creation of a mobile wallet or requirement to pre-load minimum funds and — importantly — to provide instant confirmation of the user’s lottery game numbers, whether selected at random or picked by the user. Users of our B2C Platform services paid a service fee and, in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions, a mark-up on the purchase price. Prior to the Operational Cessation, we generated revenue from this service fee and mark-up. Our B2B API Platform resumed limited operations in April 2023. As of the date of this Report, our B2C Platform is not currently operational. We anticipate that our B2C Platform will become operational in the first quarter of 2024.

The WinTogether Platform

Prior to the Operational Cessation, we operated and administered of all sweepstakes offered by WinTogether, a registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization (“WinTogether”), which was formed in April 2020 to support charitable, educational, and scientific causes. In consideration of our operation of the WinTogether platform and administration of the sweepstakes, we received a percentage of the gross donations to a campaign, from which we paid certain dividends and all administration costs.

The WinTogether platform continued operating after the Operational Cessation, until all sweepstakes campaigns were completed and all prizes awarded. On March 29, 2023, the board of directors of WinTogether voted to suspend its relationship with the Company. The suspension of the relationship was rescinded by the WinTogether board on November 16, 2023

Current Operations

Despite the Operational Cessation, certain of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries have continued to operate under the direction of the leadership teams that were in place prior to the Company’s acquisition of such companies. While the operational activities of these subsidiaries vary, from the Operational Cessation through the date of this Report, each of TinBu, Aganar and JuegaLotto has decreased its expenses and has had its revenue remain consistent or decrease moderately from pre Cessation of Operations levels.

Data Services

In 2018, we acquired TinBu, LLC (“TinBu”), a digital publisher and provider of lottery data results, jackpots, results, and other data, as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Through TinBu, our Data Service delivers daily results of over 800 domestic and international lottery games from more than 40 countries, including the U.S., Canada, and the United Kingdom, to over 400 digital publishers and media organizations.

Our technology pulls real time primary source data, and, in some instances, we acquire data from dedicated data feeds from the lottery authorities. Our data is constantly monitored to ensure accuracy and timely delivery. We are not required to obtain licenses or approvals from the lottery authorities to pull this primary source data or to acquire the data from such dedicated feeds. Commercial acquirers of our Data Service pay a subscription for access to the Data Service and, for acquisition of certain large data sets, an additional per record fee.

We additionally enter into multi-year contracts pursuant to which we sell proprietary, anonymized transaction data pursuant to multi-year agreements and in accordance with our Terms of Service in consideration of a fee and in other instances provide the Data Service within a bundle of provided services.

Aganar and JuegaLotto

On June 30, 2021, we acquired 100% of the equity of Global Gaming Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Global Gaming”), which holds 80% of the equity of each of Medios Electronicos y de Comunicacion, S.A.P.I de C.V. (“Aganar”) and JuegaLotto, S.A. de C.V. (“JuegaLotto”). JuegaLotto is federally licensed by the Mexican regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over the ability to commercialize lottery games in Mexico through an authorized federal gaming portal and to commercialize games of chance in other countries throughout Latin America. Aganar has been operating in the licensed Online Lottery market in Mexico since 2007 and has certain rights to sell Mexican National Lottery draw games, instant win tickets, and other games of chance online with access to a federally approved online casino and sportsbook gaming license and additionally issues a proprietary scratch lottery game in Mexico under the brand name Capalli.

Sports.com

In December 2021, we finalized the acquisition of the domain name https://sports.com and on November 15, 2022, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary called Sports.com, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Sports.com”). Subsequently, Sports.com announced a partnership with the Saudi Motorsports Company, which enabled the Company to roll out the Sports.com brand at the FIFA World Cup decider at the end of November 2022. In December 2022, Sports.com signed an agreement with Data Sports Group, GmbH (“DSG”), which provides Sports.com the exclusive North American distribution rights for sports data products offered and maintained by DSG (the “DSG Data”). The DSG Data is being sold through the same sales resources and sales channels as the lottery data offered by TinBu. On July 23, 2023, DSG exercised its right to terminate the exclusive distribution rights due to Sports.com not meeting its contractual obligations.

Plans for Recommencement of Company Operations

As noted above, since the Operational Cessation, the Company has had minimal day-to-day operations and has primarily focused its operations on restarting certain components of its core business. The Company has developed a three phase plan to recommence its operations, which plan is outlined below.

Phase 1 – Relaunch B2B API Platform. During the Operational Cessation, the Company maintained positive relationships with its ticket-printing and courier partners, as well as several distribution partners that have been found to be in compliance with local, state, and federal rules related to ticket procurement and distribution. These partners have implemented the Lottery.com API and have advised the Company that they expect to be ready to offer lottery games to their customers through their sales channels when the Company resumes operations. As such, the Company believes that it has sufficient demand to resume operation of its B2B API platform, assuming it is able to maintain the core employee team to manage the lottery ticket fulfillment process and access sufficient capital to relaunch Project Nexus, which was designed to, among other things, handle high levels of user traffic and transaction volume, while maintaining expediency, security, and reliability in the administrative and back-office functionality required by the B2B API. Our B2B API Platform resumed limited operations in April 2023.

Phase 2 – Resume B2C Platform Operations. The Company believes that it will be in a position to relaunch its B2C Platform in the first quarter of 2024. As of the date of this Report, the Company expects that it will initially relaunch its B2C Platform to customers in Texas for a period of time before rolling it out to other jurisdictions. The Company plans to limit the rollout in order to give it additional time to properly vet and confirm compliance with local, state and federal rules related to ticket procurement and distribution. The Company has also maintained various pre-paid media credits that it expects to use to launch and maintain promotional campaigns geared towards encouraging prior customers to return to the Platform and to acquire new customers.

Phase 3 – Restore Other Business Lines and Projects. Assuming the success of Phase 1 and Phase 2, the Company expects to restore other products it previously offered, such as supplying lottery tickets to consumers in approved domestic jurisdictions, partnering with licensed providers in international jurisdictions to supply legitimate domestic lottery games, and reviving other products and services that were under development when the Operational Cessation occurred.

As of the date of this Report, our common stock and warrants are traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbols “LTRY” and “LTRYW,” respectively. Under its new management, the Company continues to work to improve its disclosure and reporting controls, and plans to overhaul its systems of internal control over financial reporting and invest in additional legal, accounting, and financial resources.

Even if the Company’s three phase plan to recommence its operations is successful, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the applicable Listing Rules, or that the hearings panel will stay the delisting of the Company’s securities from Nasdaq. If the Company’s securities are delisted from Nasdaq, it could be more difficult to buy or sell the Company’s common stock and warrants or to obtain accurate quotations, and the price of the Company’s common stock and warrants could suffer a material decline. Delisting could also impair the Company’s ability to raise additional capital needed to funds its operations and/or trigger defaults and penalties under outstanding agreements or securities of the Company.

There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient capital to support our operations and pay expenses, repay our debt, or that additional funds will be available on favorable terms, if at all. We may not be able to restart our operations and/or generate sufficient funding to support such operations in the future. The Company’s ability to continue its current operations, and restart its prior operations, is dependent upon obtaining new financing. Future financing options available to the Company include equity financings, debt financings or other capital sources, including collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions. Equity financings may include sales of common stock. Such financing may not be available on terms favorable to the Company or at all. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or rights of the Company’s stockholders and may cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining sufficient funding on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all, which would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations, and it could ultimately be forced to discontinue its operations and liquidate. These matters, when considered in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, which is defined as within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The accompanying financial statements do not contain any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Components of Our Results of Operations (Prior to the Operational Cessation)

Our Revenue

Revenue from B2C Platform. Our revenue is the retail value of the acquired lottery game and the service fee charged to the user, which we impose on each lottery game purchased from our B2C Platform. The amount of the service fee is based upon several factors, including the retail value of the lottery game purchased by a user, the number of lottery games purchased by a user, and whether such user is located within the U.S. or internationally. Currently, in the U.S, the minimum service fee is $0.50 for the purchase of a $1 lottery game and $1 for the purchase of a $2 lottery game; the service fee for additional lottery games purchased in the same transaction is 6% of the face value of all lottery games purchased. For example, the service fee for the purchase of five $2 tickets is $1.60, which includes the $1 base service fee, plus 6% of the aggregate value of the face value of all lottery games purchased.

Internationally, B2C sales in jurisdictions where we do not have direct or indirect authority generate an immaterial amount of revenue, and we are assessing our operations in these jurisdictions. As discussed above, our B2C Platform is not currently operational. We anticipate that our B2C Platform will become operational in the first quarter of 2024.

Revenue from B2B API. The Company charges a technology fee for the use of the B2B API. The company does not mark-up the cost of the ticket nor does it impose a service fee on our third-party commercial partner’s customers. As discussed above, following the Operational Cessation, our B2B API Platform resumed limited operations in April 2023.

Data Services. Commercial acquirers of our Data Service pay a subscription fee for access to the Data Service and, for acquisition of certain large data sets, an additional per record fee. The Company additionally enters into multi-year contracts pursuant to which it sells proprietary, anonymized transaction data pursuant to multi-year agreements and in accordance with our Terms of Service in consideration of a fee. Our Data Services operations were not impacted by the Operational Cessation.

Our Operating Costs and Expenses

Personnel Costs. Personnel costs include salaries, payroll taxes, health insurance, worker’s compensation and other benefits for management and office personnel.

Professional Fees. Professional fees include fees paid for legal and financial advisors, accountants and other professionals.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses include marketing and advertising, expenses, office and facilities lease payments, travel expenses, bank fees, software dues and subscriptions, expensed research and development (“R&D”) costs and other fees and expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses include depreciation and amortization expenses on real property and other assets.

Key Trends and Factors Affecting Our Results

The following describes the trends associated with our business prior to the Operational Cessation that have impacted, and which we expect will continue to impact, our business and results of operations in a material way:

International operations. We face challenges related to expanding our footprint globally and the related process of obtaining the licenses and regulatory approvals necessary to provide services and products within new and emerging markets. The international jurisdictions where we operate and seek to expand have been subject to increasing foreign currency fluctuations against the U.S. dollar, soaring inflation and political and economic instability. We expect these trends to continue during the remainder of 2023 and likely in fiscal 2024 and believe they are likely to cause a material decrease in consumer spending, which could have a material impact on our revenues. We expect that it will take a longer period of time to achieve revenue gains or generate cash in the new regions or any new international jurisdictions in which we expand, outside of our domestic geographies.

Introduction of a new gaming platform. We developed a proprietary, blockchain-enabled gaming platform, which we named Project Nexus. Project Nexus is designed to handle high levels of user traffic and transaction volume, while maintaining expediency, security, and reliability in processing lottery game sales, the retail requirements of the B2C Platform, the administrative and back-office functionality required by the B2B API, and the claims and redemption process. We expect to utilize this platform to launch new products, including any proprietary products we may introduce. The introduction of new technology like Project Nexus is subject to risks including, for example, implementation delays, issues successfully integrating the technology into our solutions, or the possibility that the technology does not produce the expected benefits.

Our growth plans and the competitive landscape. Our direct competitors operate in the global entertainment and gaming industries and, like us, seek to expand their product and service offerings with integrated products and solutions. Our short-to-medium term focus is on increasing our penetration in our existing U.S. jurisdiction by increasing direct to consumer marketing campaigns, introducing our B2C Platform into new U.S. and international jurisdictions, and acquiring synergistic regulated and sports betting enterprises domestically and abroad. Competition in the sale of online lottery games has significantly increased in recent years, is currently characterized by intense price-based competition, and is subject to changing technology, shifting needs and frequent introductions of new games, development platforms and services. To maintain our competitive edge alongside other established industry players (many of which have more resources, or capital), we expect to incur greater operating expenses in the short-term, such as increased marketing expenses, increased compliance expenses, increased personnel and advisory expenses associated with being a public company, additional operational expenses and salaries for personnel to support expected growth, additional expenses associated with our ability to execute on our strategic initiatives including our aim to undertake merger and acquisition activities, as well as additional capital expenditures associated with further development and implementation of Project Nexus.

Current Plan of Operations

As of the date of this Report, the Company’s primary revenue drivers are the resumption of its B2B API platform and the launch of Sports.com. It is anticipated that operational costs for the next 12 months will be greater than revenues. It is anticipated that the liquidity gap will be satisfied by equity or debt raised, of which there is no assurance.

Beyond the next 12 months, the Company plans to re-launch its B2C Platform and continue to expand in domestic and international jurisdictions. The Company plans to enhance its mobile application to include pool plays, tickets subscriptions, loyalty programs and various gamification modules.

Results of Operations

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation. We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long-term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities.

Revenue.

Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $285,000, a decrease of $426,000, or 60%, compared to revenue of $711,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Lottery related revenue for domestic operations decreased by $385,000 in the third quarter of 2023; revenue for the TinBu subsidiary decreased by $37,000 and revenue from the Global Gaming subsidiary decreased by $4,000.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue includes product costs, commission expense to affiliates and commercial partners, and merchant processing fees. Cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $72,000, a decrease of $199,000, or 73%, compared to cost of revenue of $271,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in cost of revenue was driven by the decrease in the number of lottery games sold domestically as compared to the third quarter of 2022 which resulted in a decrease of $62,000 in payment processing fees and a decrease of $130,000 in commission expense for the third quarter of 2023.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $213,000 compared to $440,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $227,000, or 52%. This decrease was primarily due to lower revenue in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022.

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $3.3 million, a decrease of $3.2 million, or 49%, compared to $6.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The reduction was primarily driven by decreases of $1.7 million in professional fees accompanied by a decrease of in general and administrative expenses of $1.4 million. Reasons for these decreases are described below.

Personnel Costs. Personnel costs were essentially the same for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Professional Fees. Professional fees decreased by $1.7 million or 81%, from $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to $401 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower expenditures for legal expenses [$1.4 million lower] research and development [$178,000 lower] and accounting [$100,000 lower] in the third quarter of 2023 as compared with the prior year.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased $1.4 million, or 85%, from $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to $255,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The primary reason for the decrease was significantly lower expenses for business insurance [$837,000 lower] and marketing [$161,000 lower] in the third quarter of 2023. Additionally an expense of $412,500 was recorded for the impairment of an intangible asset that had been recorded for a software application, which was being developed for a use with a partner, that the company determined would not be completed or put into its intended purpose as the relationship with that partner ended in the third quarter of 2022.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased $57,000, or 4%, from $1.48 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 to $1.42 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in depreciation expense for the third quarter of 2023 as compared with the same quarter for 2022 because certain fixed assets became fully depreciated earlier in 2023.

Total other expenses, net		246,529		4,571			(241,958	)		-	%

Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $244,000 vs interest income of 0.5 thousand for 2022, an increase of $244,000. The increase was driven by accruals of interest on convertible loans received in 2023 from Woodford and UCIL and an accrual recorded to correct interest accrued on other outstanding Notes.

Other Income. Was essentially the same for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Revenue.

Revenue. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $1.6 million, a decrease of $4.7 million, or 75%, compared to revenue of $6.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease of approximately $4.7 million was comprised of a decrease in lottery related revenue of $3.0 million and a decrease of $1.8 million for project related revenue from business partners in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 which did not reoccur in 2023.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue includes product costs, commission expense to affiliates and commercial partners, and merchant processing fees. Cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $203,000, a decrease of $4.0 million, or 95%, compared to cost of revenue of $4.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in cost of revenue was driven by the decrease in the number of lottery games sold in the first nine months of 2023 domestically which resulted in significantly lower commission expenses [$3.1 million lower], payment processing fees [$167,000 lower] and costs of labor and contractors for partner projects [$571,000 lower]. Costs of revenue were also lower for the Global Gaming subsidiary for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $1.4 million compared to $2.0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $400,000, or 26%. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in revenue because project related revenue from business partners in the first nine months of 2022, which had higher margins, did not recur in 2023.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $11.9 million, a decrease of $42.5 million, or 78%, compared to $54.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The reduction was primarily driven by a decrease of $31.6 million in personnel costs accompanied by decreases in professional fees by $3.9 million and general and administrative expenses of $7.0 million. Reasons for these decreases are described below.

Personnel Costs. Personnel costs decreased by $31.6 million from $35.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, to $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease of $26.7 million in stock compensation expense related to equity grants that were valued at the share price soon after the Business Combination combined with lower salaries, employer payroll taxes, and benefits expenses due to reductions to headcount and compensation in 2023.

Professional Fees. Professional fees decreased by $3.9 million, or 61%, from $6.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower expenditures for legal expenses [$2.35 million lower] research and development [$741,000 lower], accounting [$603,000 lower], and information technology [$212,000] in the third quarter of 2023 as compared with the prior year.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased $7.0 million, or 82%, from $8.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Expenses for business insurance [$3.0 million lower], marketing and advertising [$1.7 million lower], royalties [$701,000 lower], software development [$571,000 lower], consulting [$454,000], and office rent [$138,000 lower] were all significantly lower in the first nine months of 2023. Additionally an expense of $412,500 was recorded for the impairment of an intangible asset that had been recorded for a software application, which was being developed for a use with a partner, that the company determined would not be completed or put into its intended purpose as the relationship with that partner ended in the third quarter of 2022.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $69,000, or 2%, from $4.15 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to $4.22 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by the amortization of intangibles during 2023 which were placed in service during Q2 and Q3 of 2022 for which there was no amortization expense during the first nine months of 2022.

Total other expenses, net		346,166		4,020,890		(3,674,724	)		-91	%

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $210,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 vs September 30, 2022. The increase was driven by accruals of interest on convertible loans received in 2023 from Woodford and UCIL and an accrual recorded in the third quarter of 2023 to correct interest accrued on other outstanding Notes.

Other Expense. We had approximately $61,000 in other expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to other expense of approximately $3.95 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The primary component of the expense for the first nine months of 2022 was a non-recurring expense recorded in connection with a discount to reflect an asset that will be repaid to the company over time.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Prior to the Operational Cessation, our primary need for liquidity was to fund working capital requirements of our business, growth, capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes. Our primary source of liquidity had historically been funds generated by financing activities. Upon the Closing on October 29, 2021, we received net proceeds of approximately $42.8 million in cash.

Following the Operational Cessation, our primary need for liquidity has been to fund the restart of our business operations, re-hire employees and pay our expenses. As of the date of this Report, our sources of liquidity have been the funds provided to us under the Loan Agreements with Woodford and UCIL, of which $900 thousand remains available to us under such agreements. We expect that the most likely source of such future funding presently available to us is through additional borrowings under the Loan Agreements or through the issuance of equity or debt securities. If UCIL does not advance us amounts owed under the Loan Agreement or we are otherwise not able to secure the necessary capital to restart our operations, hire new employees, and obtain funding sufficient to support and restart our operations, we may be forced to permanently cease our operations, sell off our assets and operations, and/or seek bankruptcy protection, which could cause the value of our securities to become worthless.

These conditions, along with our current lack of material revenue producing activities, and significant debt, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months. For more information, see Note 2 – Liquidity and Going Concern to the consolidated financial statements included herein.

Prior Convertible Debt Obligations

Prior to the Closing, we funded our operations through the issuance of convertible promissory notes.

From November 2019 through October 28, 2021, we issued approximately $48.2 million in aggregate principal amount of Series B convertible promissory notes. The notes bear interest at 8% per year, were unsecured, and were due and payable on dates ranging from December 2020 to December 2022. For those promissory notes that would have matured on or before December 31, 2020, the parties extended the maturity date to December 21, 2021 through amendments executed in February 2021. The amendments also allowed for automatic conversion to equity as a result of the Business Combination. Nearly all of the aforementioned promissory notes automatically converted into shares of common stock or were terminated pursuant to their terms, as applicable, in connection with the Closing. Those that remain outstanding do not have conversion terms that were triggered by the Closing.

Immediately prior to the Closing, approximately $60.0 million of convertible debt was converted into equity of AutoLotto. As of September 30, 2023, we had $991 thousand of convertible debt outstanding in connection with the loan from Woodford and $798 thousand of convertible debt outstanding from the loan from UCIL.

See “Recent Developments— Loan Agreement with UCIL” above for additional information on the terms of the Loan Agreement.

Net cash used in operating activities was $766,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $800,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Net cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $0, compared to $1.25 million for the prior year. The decrease was primarily the result of lower purchases of intangible assets in the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $871,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to net cash used of $479,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a difference of $1.2 million year over year. In 2023 the company received funding from the Woodford Group and UCIL whereas in 2022, the company paid down balances on notes payable from related parties.

Emerging Growth Company Accounting Election

Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can choose not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable. We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. We expect to remain an emerging growth company through the end of the 2023 fiscal year and we expect to continue to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period. This may make it difficult or impossible to compare the financial results with the financial results of another public company that is either not an emerging growth company or is an emerging growth company that has chosen not to take advantage of the extended transition period exemptions for emerging growth companies because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting values of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant estimates and assumptions are those used in determining the recoverability of long-lived assets. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow will be affected.

Our critical accounting policies are described under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in the Annual Report and the notes to the audited financial statements appearing elsewhere in the Annual Report. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies from those discussed in our 2022 Annual Report. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” This guidance requires recognition of most lease liabilities on the balance sheet to give investors, lenders, and other financial statement users a more comprehensive view of a company’s long-term financial obligations, as well as the assets it owns versus leases. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and for interim periods within annual periods after December 15, 2022. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11 making transition requirements less burdensome. The standard provides an option to apply the transition provisions of the new standard at its adoption date instead of at the earliest comparative period presented in the Company’s financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on our financial statements as well as the expected adoption method. The adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, as additional guidance on the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. The new guidance requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable supportable forecasts. In addition, the guidance amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The new guidance is effective for all public companies for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. In October 2019, the FASB approved a proposal which grants smaller reporting companies additional time to implement FASB standards on current expected credit losses (CECL) to January 2023. As a smaller reporting company, we will defer adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 until January 2023. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements .

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Interim Chief Executive Officer, Interim President and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer, Interim President and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, our Interim Chief Executive Officer, Interim President and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to our financial statement closing and reporting process, as described below. As a result of this conclusion, we retained third-party accounting consultants who performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Report present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The issues with the company’s accounting, reporting, and disclosure controls and procedures described above were first identified and described in Amendment No. 1 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10K/A for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“the Amended 2021 Annual Report”) which was filed on May 10, 2023, and Amendment No. 1 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10Q/A for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 (the Form 10Q/A”), filed on May 15, 2023. Such issues are continuing and management has been working to address them since the fall of 2022. Efforts to strengthen and improve the company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over accounting and financial reporting (as described below) are ongoing.

Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In connection with the audit of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in our Amended Annual Report, our management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 relating to deficiencies in the design and operation of the procedures relating to the closing of our financial statements. These include: (i) our lack of a sufficient number of personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge and experience in accounting for complex or non-routine transactions, (ii) the fact that our policies and procedures with respect to the review, supervision and monitoring of our accounting and reporting functions were either not designed and in place or not operating effectively; (iii) our inability to complete the timely closing of financial books at the quarter and fiscal year end, and (iv) incomplete segregation of duties in certain types of transactions and processes.

Specifically, management did not design and maintain sufficient procedures and controls related to revenue recognition including those related to ensuring accuracy of revenue recognized from non-routine transactions such as the sales of LotteryLink Credits, which resulted in an overstatement of revenue of approximately $52.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2021, which required a restatement of our previously issued financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 contained in the Amended Annual Report and an overstatement of revenue of approximately $18.24 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2022, which required a restatement of the previously issued financial statements for March 31, 2022 contained in the Form 10-Q/A .

We have begun to implement remediation steps to improve our internal control over financial reporting and to remediate the identified material weaknesses, including (i) adding personnel with sufficient accounting knowledge; (ii) adopting a more rigorous period-end review process for financial reporting; (iii) adopting improved period close processes and accounting processes, (iv) clearly defining and documenting the segregation of duties for certain transactions and processes, and (v) appointing a new Chief Financial Officer. Management has expanded and will continue to enhance our system of identifying transactions and evaluating and implementing the accounting standards that apply to our financial statements, including through enhanced analyses by our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. We intend to continue take steps to remediate the material weaknesses described above and further continue re-assessing the design of controls, the testing of controls and modifying processes designed to improve our internal control over financial reporting. The Company plans to continue to assess its internal controls and procedures and intends to take further action as necessary or appropriate to address any other matters it identifies or are brought to its attention. We will not be able to fully remediate these material weaknesses until these steps have been completed and have been operating effectively for a sufficient period of time. The implementation of our remediation will be ongoing and will require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles. We may also conclude that additional measures may be required to remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

We cannot assure you that the measures we take will be sufficient to remediate the material weaknesses we identified or avoid the identification of additional material weaknesses in the future. If the steps we take do not remediate the material weaknesses in a timely manner, there could continue to be a reasonable possibility that this control deficiency or others could result in another material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except as otherwise described herein, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Company is from time to time a party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Company is a party to several material legal proceedings, which are described below. The outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. If one or more legal matters were resolved against the Company in a reporting period for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s financial condition and operating results for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected.

J. Streicher

On July 29, 2022, the Company filed its original Verified Complaint for Breach of Contract and Specific Performance (the “Streicher Complaint”) against J. Streicher Financial, LLC (“Streicher”) in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Chancery Court”), styled AutoLotto, Inc. dba Lottery.com v. J. Streicher Financial, LLC (Case No. 2022-0661-MTZ). In the Streicher Complaint, the Company alleged that Streicher breached the contract entered into by the parties on March 9, 2022 and demanded that Streicher return $16,500,000.00 it owes to the Company. On September 26, 2022, the Chancery Court entered an order in favor of the Company, Granting with Modifications Company’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment in the amount of $16,500,000.00 (the “Streicher Judgment”). On October 27, 2022, the Chancery Court further awarded the Company $397,036.94 in attorney’s fees (the “Fee Order”). On November 15, 2022, the Company initiated efforts against Streicher to seek collections on the Judgment. On December 8, 2022, the Company’s prior attorney Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, LLP (“Skadden”) filed its Combined Motion to Withdraw as Counsel and For a Charging Lien in amount of $3,024,201.17 for legal fees unpaid by Company (“Skadden’s Motion”). On December 30, 2022, the Company filed its response to Skadden’s Motion, alleging that the Chancery Court should deny Skadden’s Motion for a Charging Lien as a matter of law or, in the alternative, limit the charging lien to the amount of the attorneys’ fees awarded by the Fee Order. As of the date of this Amended Report, the Chancery Court has not set Skadden’s Motion for an oral hearing, nor has it entered an order on the motion . On January 20, 2023, faced with post-judgment discovery and depositions, Streicher remitted a partial payment towards the Judgment in the amount of $75,000.00. On February 13, 2023, Streicher made another payment towards the Judgment in the amount of $50,000.00 and had agreed to make another payment in the amount of $75,000.00 on February 28, 2023, which it failed to make. The Company intends to fully collect on the Judgment and shall pursue all legal and equitable means to enforce the Judgment against Streicher until the Judgment is fully satisfied.

Preston Million Class Action

On August 19, 2022, Preston Million filed the Class Action Complaint (the “Class Action Complaint”) against the Company and certain former officers and directors of the Company in the United States District Court for Southern District of New York (the “SDNY”), styled Preston Million, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated vs. Lottery.com, Inc. f/k/a Trident Acquisitions Corp., Anthony DiMatteo, Matthew Clemenson and Ryan Dickinson (Case No. 1:22-cv-07111-JLR). The Class Action Complaint alleged violations by all defendants of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) 15 U.S.C. §§ 78j(b), 78t(a), as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”), U.S.C. § 78u-4 et seq. (collectively “Federal Securities Laws”). On November 18, 2022, the SNDY ordered the appointment of RTD Bros, LLC, Todd Benn, Tom Benn and Tomasz Rzedian (collectively “Lottery Investor Group”) as lead plaintiff and Glancy Prongay & Murray, LLP as lead counsel for plaintiffs and for the class in the case. On December 5, 2022, the Court stipulated a Scheduling Order in the case. On January 12, 2023, the Company’s legal counsel timely filed its Notice of Appearance. On January 31, 2022, plaintiffs filed their Amended Complaint adding Kathryn Lever, Marat Rosenberg, Vadim Komissarov, Thomas Gallagher, Gennadii Butkevych, Ilya Ponomarev as additional defendants in the case. The Amended Complaint alleges, among other things, that defendants made materially false and misleading statements in violation of Section 10(b),14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, reasonable cost and expenses including counsel fees and expert fees. Pursuant to the Scheduling Order, the Company filed its motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint on April 3, 2023, under the newly consolidated caption and its proposed order to dismiss the matter. Plaintiffs filed their opposition to the motion to dismiss on May 18, 2023, to which the Company filed its reply brief in support of its motion to dismiss on June 20, 2023 .

TinBu Complaint

Global Gaming Data

On November 21, 2023, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary and TinBu, LLC (“TinBu”) (Company and TinBu collectively, “Plaintiffs”) filed their First Amended Verified Complaint in Federal Court for the Middle District of Florida against John J. Brier, Jr. (“Brier”), Bin Tu (“Tu”), and Global Gaming Data, LLC (“GGD”) (collectively, “Defendants”) for violations of the Federal Defend Trade Secrets Act (“DTSA”), the Florida Uniform Trade Secrets Act (“FUTSA”) and the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act (“FDUTPA”), and for breaches of contract and fiduciary duties, including the duty of loyalty, styled Lottery.com, Inc. f/k/a AutoLotto, Inc. and TinBu, LLC v. John J. Brier, Jr., Bin Tu, and Global Gaming Data, LLC (Case No.: 8:23-cv-2594-KKM-TGW) Defendants filed certain counterclaims against Plaintiffs.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

As of the date of this Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report, other than as set forth below. In addition, we may disclose additional changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations.

The ultimate effect of the Reverse Stock Split on the market price of our common stock cannot be predicted with any certainty and may decrease the liquidity of our common stock and magnify any decrease in our overall market capitalization.

The ultimate effect of the Reverse Stock Split on the market price of our common stock cannot be predicted with any certainty, and we cannot assure you that the Reverse Stock Split will result in any or all of the expected benefits, including enabling the Company to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing standards, for any meaningful period of time, or at all. While we expect that the reduction in the number of outstanding shares of common stock will proportionally increase the market price of our common stock, we cannot assure you that the Reverse Stock Split will increase the market price of our common stock by a multiple of the Reverse Stock Split ratio or result in any permanent or sustained increase in the market price of our common stock. The market price of our common stock depends on multiple factors, many of which are unrelated to the number of shares outstanding, including our business and financial performance, general market conditions and prospects for future success, any of which could have a counteracting effect to the Reverse Stock Split on the per share price.

In addition, the Reverse Stock Split also reduced the total number of outstanding shares of common stock, which may lead to reduced trading for our common stock. As a result of a lower number of shares outstanding, the market for our common stock may also become more volatile. The Reverse Stock Split also increased the number of stockholders who own “odd lots” of less than 100 shares of common stock. A purchase or sale of less than 100 shares of common stock (an “odd lot” transaction) may result in incrementally higher trading costs through certain brokers, particularly “full service” brokers. Therefore, those stockholders who own fewer than 100 shares of common stock following the Reverse Stock Split may be required to pay higher transaction costs if they sell their common stock.

Finally, the decline in the per share price of our common stock and the decline in our overall market capitalization may be greater following the Reverse Stock Split than would have occurred in the absence of a Reverse Stock Split. Any reduction in our market capitalization may be magnified as a result of the smaller number of total shares of common stock outstanding following the Reverse Stock Split.
