Online gambling company DraftKings Inc. said Monday it will become a listed company via an acquisition by blank-check company Diamond Eagle Acquisition Corp. and SBTech, a provider of gaming technologies.
Robins told CNBC earlier that the company had originally intended to acquire SBTech and then go public, or go public first and then acquire the technology company. The acquisition vehicle allowed it to make both moves in one go. DraftKings and rival FanDuel have steadily gained market share since a 2018 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that legalized sports betting in every state, should they decide to allow it. For now, sports bets can be made legally in 13 states, while sportsbooks are legal in another six but are not yet running, as the Associated Press reported last week. About a third of Americans live in a state where sports betting is legal.
