Rush Street Interactive (NYSE: RSI) Richard Schwartz, CEO: Momentum Building for Sports Betting and Online Casino Games...Revenue was $122.8 million during the quarter, representing a year-over-year increase of 89%.

With this continued success and growth in our business, we are once again raising our guidance.

We have been selected by the Connecticut Lottery to be a sports betting partner, making RSI one of only three sportsbook operators who will be authorized to operate in the state...New York has recently accepted bids... We formally submitted our bid as part of the process. We are excited about the opportunity to offer our online sportsbook in the state of New York...We have no shortage of near-term opportunities and expected state launches coming over the next couple of quarters. And our business development team is hard at work to continue the strong momentum to secure partnerships in many new jurisdictions.

We also continue to be very encouraged by the legislative momentum for online sports betting and the addition of online casinos in many states which already have approved sports betting. It has become very clear we are looking at the numbers in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Michigan that online casino is a greater generator of cash revenue, and many state legislators are recognizing this opportunity.
