Note 1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Genius Sports Limited (the "Company" or "Genius") is a non-cellular company limited by shares incorporated on October 21, 2020 under the laws of Guernsey. The Company was formed for the purpose of effectuating a merger pursuant to a definitive business combination agreement ("Business Combination Agreement"), dated October 27, 2020, by and among dMY Technology Group, Inc. II ("dMY"), Maven Topco Limited ("Maven Topco"), Maven Midco Limited, Galileo NewCo Limited, Genius Merger Sub, Inc., and dMY Sponsor II, LLC (the "Merger"). Upon the closing of the Merger on April 20, 2021 (the "Closing"), the Company changed its name from Galileo NewCo Limited to Genius Sports Limited. The Company's ordinary shares and public warrants are currently listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "GENI" and "GENI WS", respectively.

The Company is a provider of scalable, technology-led products and services to the sports, sports betting, and sports media industries. The Company is a data and technology company that enables consumer-facing businesses such as sports leagues, sportsbook operators and media companies to engage with their customers. The scope of the Company's software bridges the entire sports data journey, from intuitive applications that enable accurate real-time data capture, to the creation and provision of in-game betting odds and digital content that helps the Company's customers create engaging experiences for the ultimate end-users, who are primarily sports fans.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse capitalization in accordance with accounting principles accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The Merger was first accounted for as a capital reorganization whereby the Company was the successor to its predecessor Maven Topco. As a result of the first step described above, the existing shareholders of Maven Topco continued to retain control through ownership of the Company. The capital reorganization was immediately followed by the acquisition of dMY, which was accounted for within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805"). Under this method of accounting, dMY was treated as the "acquired" company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on post-combination relative voting rights, composition of the governing board, relative size of the pre-combination entities, and intent of the Merger. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing stock for the net assets of dMY, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of dMY were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Merger are those of legacy Maven Topco. Upon Closing, outstanding capital stock of legacy shareholders of Maven Topco was converted to the Company's common stock, in an amount determined by application of the exchange ratio of 37.38624 ("Exchange Ratio"), which was based on Maven Topco's implied price per share prior to the Merger. For periods prior to the Merger, the reported share and per share amounts have been retroactively converted by applying the Exchange Ratio.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with US GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on March 18, 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, included herein, was derived from the audited financial statements of the Company as of that date.

7

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of March 31, 2022, its results of operations, comprehensive loss and shareholders' equity for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The results of the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2022 or for any interim period or for any other future year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company, inclusive of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain prior period amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02 codified as ASC 842, Leases ("ASC 842"), which addresses the recognition and measurement of leases. Under the new guidance, for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases), at the commencement date, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use ("ROU") asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to control the use of a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements - Leases (Topic 842). This update provides an alternative transition method that allows entities to elect to apply the standard prospectively at its effective date, versus recasting the prior periods presented. In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-05, deferring the effective date for one year for all other entities to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has emerging growth company status and plans to adopt ASC 842 using the alternative transition method for our annual reporting period on December 31, 2022. The qualitative and quantitative effects of adoption of ASC 842 are still being analyzed, and the Company is in the process of evaluating the full effect, including the total amount of both financing and operating leases, the new guidance will have on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, the Company is in the process of evaluating the expanded disclosure requirements related to this ASU.

There are no other accounting pronouncements that are not yet effective and that are expected to have a material impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12,Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard and the adoption had no material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements

Note 2. Reverse Capitalization

On April 20, 2021, the Merger was consummated.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at Closing, the Company underwent a pre-closing reorganization wherein all existing classes of shares of Maven Topco (except for certain preference shares which were redeemed and cancelled as part of the reorganization) were exchanged for newly issued ordinary shares of the Company ("Genius ordinary shares"). Additionally, solely with respect to the Incentive Securities (defined below in Note 12 - Stock-based Compensation) of Maven Topco that were unvested prior to such reorganization and because the holders of such shares executed and delivered support agreements agreeing to the vesting and restrictions provisions therein, such shares were exchanged for the Company's restricted shares. See Note 12 - Stock-based Compensation.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth therein, the following has occurred: (a) dMY's issued and outstanding shares of Class B shares have converted automatically on a one-for-one basis into Class A shares; and (b) Genius Merger Sub, Inc, a whole-owned subsidiary of the Company, has merged with and into dMY, with dMY continuing as the surviving company, as a result of which (i) dMY has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company; (ii) each issued and outstanding unit of dMY, consisting of one Class A share and one-third of one warrant were automatically detached, (iii) each issued and outstanding Class A share was converted into the right to receive one Genius ordinary share; (iv) each issued and outstanding dMY warrant to purchase a share of dMY Class A common stock have become exercisable for one Genius ordinary share. Additionally, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, certain dMY shareholders exercised their right to redeem certain of their outstanding shares for cash, resulting in the redemption of 1,296 shares of dMY common stock for gross redemption payments of $12,966.

Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, a number of accredited and institutional investors (the "PIPE Investors") subscribed to purchase an aggregate of 33,000,000 Genius ordinary shares, for a purchase price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $330,000,000, to be issued immediately prior to or substantially concurrently with the Closing (the "PIPE Investment"). The PIPE Investment was also consummated on April 20, 2021.

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse capitalization in accordance with US GAAP. Under this method of accounting, dMY was treated as the "acquired" company for financial reporting purposes and the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing stock for the net assets of dMY, accompanied by a recapitalization. See "Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation" in Note 1 -- Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for further details. In connection with the Merger, the Company raised gross proceeds of $606.3 million including the contribution of $276.3 million of cash held in dMY's trust account from its initial public offering and gross proceeds from PIPE Investment of $330 million less issuance costs of $13.2 million.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, with the proceeds raised, the Company paid for redemption of certain preference shares of Maven Topco of $292.7 million, repaid certain loans granted by Maven Topco of $96.9 million and made a catch-up payment of $15.7 million related to certain executive's holdings of the Company's Incentive Securities (net of proceeds from repayment of certain employee loan).

In connection with the Merger, the Company incurred direct and incremental transaction costs of approximately $20.2 million associated with equity issuance, consisting primarily of investment banking, legal, accounting and other professional fees, which were recorded to additional paid-in capital as a reduction of proceeds in the condensed consolidated statements of changes in temporary equity and shareholders' equity (deficit).

Note 9. Derivative Warrant Liabilities

As part of dMY's initial public offering ("IPO") in 2020, dMY issued 9,200,000 warrants to third party investors, and each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company's Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the "Public Warrants"). Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, dMY completed the private sale of 5,013,333 warrants to dMY's sponsor ("Private Placement Warrants") and each Private Placement Warrant allows the sponsor to purchase one share of the Company's Class A common stock at $11.50 per share.

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole Public Warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the IPO. The Public Warrants have an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustments and will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination as of April 20, 2021 or earlier upon redemption or liquidation and are exercisable on demand. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, no Public Warrants were exercised. As of March 31, 2022, 7,668,381 Public Warrants remained outstanding.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants are redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. On September 15, 2021, the Private Placement Warrants were exercised in full on a cashless basis, resulting in the issuance of 2,282,759 shares of Common Stock. None of the Private Placement Warrants remain outstanding as of March 31, 2022.

The Company accounts for Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants as liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant's specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (ASC 480) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815). Specifically, the Public and Private Placement Warrants meet the definition of a derivative but do not qualify for an exception from derivative accounting since the warrants are not indexed to the Company's stock and therefore, are precluded from equity classification. Since the Public and Private Placement Warrants meet the definition of a derivative under ASC 815, the Company recorded these warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value upon the closing of the Merger, with subsequent changes in their respective fair values recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, a gain of $8.7 million was recognized from the change in fair value of the Public Warrants in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 11. Loss Per Share

The Company uses the two-class method to calculate net loss per share and apply the more dilutive of the two-class method, treasury stock method or if-converted method to calculate diluted net loss per share. Undistributed earnings for each period are allocated to participating securities, based on the contractual participation rights of the security to share in the current earnings as if all current period earnings had been distributed. As there is no contractual obligation for Preference Shares outstanding in the periods to share in losses, the Company's basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during periods with undistributed losses. Additionally, the B Shares, issued in connection with the License Agreement (defined below), are not included in the loss per share calculations below as they are non-participating securities with no rights to dividends or distributions. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive securities. Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders was the same for all periods presented as the inclusion of all potentially dilutive securities outstanding was anti-dilutive.

The computation of loss per share and weighted average shares of the Company's common stock outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows (in thousands except share and per share data):

The shares and net loss per common share, prior to the Business Combination, have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the Exchange Ratio of approximately 37.38624 shares of the Company per one share of Maven Topco as established in the Merger.

The following table presents the potentially dilutive securities that were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods presented because including them would have been antidilutive:

Note 12. Stock-based Compensation

Restricted Shares

2021 Restricted Share Plan

On October 27, 2020, in anticipation of the Merger, the Board of Directors approved a Management Equity Term Sheet ("Term Sheet") which modified the terms of Maven Topco's legacy Incentive Securities (defined below) and allowed for any unvested Incentive Securities at Closing to be converted to restricted shares under the 2021 Restricted Share Plan, using the Exchange Ratio established during the Merger. See Note 2 - Reverse Capitalization.

Specifically, historical unvested Class B and Class C Incentive Securities were converted to restricted shares subject only to service conditions ("Time-Vesting Restricted Shares") and subject to graded vesting over four years. Historical Class D unvested Incentive Securities were converted to restricted shares with service and market conditions ("Performance-Vesting Restricted Shares"), subject to graded vesting over three years based on a market condition related to volume weighted average trading price performance of the Company's common stock.

The Company determined that a modification to the terms of Maven Topco's legacy Incentive Securities occurred on October 27, 2020 ("October Modification") because the Company removed the Bad Leaver provision (discussed below in "Incentive Securities" section) for vested awards, contingent upon the Closing, representing a change in vesting conditions. The Company further determined that another modification occurred on April 20, 2021 ("April Modification") since the Incentive Securities, which are private company awards, were exchanged for restricted shares, which are public company awards, representing a change in vesting conditions.

16

Genius Sports Limited

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

No compensation cost was recognized as a result of the October Modification because the awards were improbable of vesting both before and after the modification date as of October 27, 2020. Upon Closing, the Company recognized total compensation cost of $183.2 million to account for the vesting of the historical Incentive Securities upon removal of the Bad Leaver provision. The Company measured the awards based on their fair values as of October 27, 2020, which is considered to be the grant date fair value of the awards, adjusted for any incremental compensation cost resulting from the April Modification, which is determined to be immaterial.

The estimated October Modification date fair values of the Company's restricted shares under the 2021 Restricted Shares Plan were calculated based on the following assumptions:

Second Spectrum Restricted Shares

On June 15, 2021, as part of the Company's acquisition of Second Spectrum (See Note 3 - Business Combinations), the Company granted 518,706 restricted shares to the founders of Second Spectrum, with 50% to be vested on December 31, 2021 and 2022 ("Second Spectrum Restricted Shares"). The grant date fair value of the Second Spectrum Restricted Shares is estimated to be equal to the closing price of the Company's common stock of $17.74 as of the grant date on June 15, 2021.

A summary of the Company's overall restricted shares activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is as follows:

The compensation cost recognized for the restricted shares during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $14.4 million, and zero, respectively.

As of March 31, 2022, total unrecognized compensation cost related to the restricted shares was $35.1 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average service period of 1.1 years.

Stock Options

2021 Option Plan

On April 20, 2021 ("Grant Date"), as part of the Merger, the Board of Directors adopted the 2021 Option Plan and granted employees options to purchase the Company's common stock via an employee benefit trust including 1) options which shall immediately vest upon Closing ("Immediate-Vesting Options"), 2) options subject only to service conditions ("Time-Vesting Options") and 3) options with service and market conditions ("Performance-Vesting Options"). Immediate-Vesting Options became fully vested and exercisable immediately following the Closing, which aligns with the Grant Date. Time-Vesting Options are subject to graded vesting over the four years following the Grant Date. Performance-Vesting Options are subject to graded vesting over the three years from the Grant Date, subject to a market condition related to volume weighted average trading price performance of the Company's common stock.

The estimated Grant Date fair value of the Company's options under the 2021 Option Plan was calculated using a combination of the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model and Monte Carlo simulations based on the following assumptions:

A summary of the Company's options activity for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is as follows:

The compensation cost recognized for options during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $0.3 million. No options vested during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $2.7 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to the stock options. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.76 years.

NFL Warrants

On April 1, 2021, the Company entered into a new multi-year strategic partnership with NFL Enterprises LLC ("NFL") (the "License Agreement"). Under the terms of the License Agreement, the Company obtains the right to serve as the worldwide exclusive distributor of NFL official data to the global regulated sports betting market, the worldwide exclusive distributor of NFL official data to the global media market, the NFL's exclusive international distributor of live digital video to the regulated sports betting market (outside of the United States of America where permitted), and the NFL's exclusive sports betting and i-gaming advertising partner. The License Agreement contemplates a six-year period (the "Term"), with an initial four-year period commencing April 1, 2021 and years five and six renewable by NFL in one year increments. Pursuant to the License Agreement, the Company, agreed to issue the NFL an aggregate of up to 18,500,000 warrants and 2,000,000 additional warrants for each annual extension, with each warrant entitling NFL to purchase one ordinary share of the Company for an exercise price of $0.01 per warrant share. The warrants will be subject to vesting over the six-year Term. Additionally, each warrant is issued with one share of redeemable B Share with a par value of $0.0001. The B Shares, which are not separable from the warrants, are voting only shares with no economic rights to dividends or distributions. Pursuant to the License Agreement, when the warrants are exercised, the Company shall purchase or, at its discretion, redeem at the par value an equivalent number of B Shares, and any such purchased or redeemed B Shares shall thereafter be cancelled.

The Company accounts for the License Agreement as an executory contract for the ongoing Data Feeds and the warrants will be accounted for as share-based payments to non-employees. The awards are measured at grant date fair value when all key terms and conditions are understood by both parties, including for unvested awards and are expensed over the term to align with the data services to be provided over the periods.

The grant date fair value of the warrants is estimated to be equal to the closing price of dMY's common stock of $15.63, as of the grant date on April, 1, 2021. The Company used dMY's stock price to approximate the fair value of the Company as the grant date was before the Merger was consummated.

A summary of the Company's warrants activity for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is as follows:

The cost recognized for the warrants during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $22.5 million and zero, respectively. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $23.5 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to the warrants. The warrants vest over a three year period and the cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.00 years. No warrants were vested in the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Incentive Securities

Prior to the Merger, the Company maintained an equity incentive arrangement providing employees options to purchase historical Maven Topco's common stock (the "Incentive Securities") consisting of B Ordinary Shares ("Class B Incentive Securities"), C Ordinary Shares, C1 Ordinary Shares, C2 Ordinary Shares (collectively, "Class C Incentive Securities"), D1 Ordinary Shares, and D2 Ordinary Shares (collectively, "Class D Incentive Securities"), with each share having a par value of $0.01, except for the Class C Incentive Securities, which had a par value of $0.21. In connection with the Merger, any Incentive Securities that remained unvested immediately prior to the Closing were exchanged for restricted shares issued under the 2021 Restricted Share Plan (discussed above in "2021 Restricted Shares Plan" section).

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, a catch-up payment of $20.4 million was made to the holders of Class B Incentive Securities ("Incentive Securities Catch-Up Payment") in relation to their rights to distribution upon liquidation events as contemplated in Maven Topco's Articles of Incorporation. The Incentive Securities Catch-Up Payment was recognized as stock-based compensation expense upon Closing.

Based on the forfeiture provisions discussed below, although the Incentive Securities were legally issued, they were not considered outstanding from an accounting perspective.

The Incentive Securities were subject to a repurchase feature, which in most instances was essentially a forfeiture provision. The Company had a call option to any or all of the Incentive Securities and the call option price depended on whether the Incentive Securities holder who left the Company was classified as a "Good Leaver" or a "Bad Leaver". The repurchase price for a Good Leaver's vested Incentive Securities was the fair value of the vested Incentive Securities. The repurchase price for any Bad Leaver's Incentive Securities, and any Incentive Securities a Good Leaver held which remained unvested, was the lower of fair value or the original cost, akin to a forfeiture provision.

Outside of retirement from the Company at the statutory retirement age and any other circumstance in which the Company's remuneration committee exercised its discretion to deem an individual to be a Good Leaver, any voluntary termination by a holder of Incentive Securities would entitle the Company to require the forfeiture of the Incentive Securities. The Company determined that it was not probable that any participants would reach the statutory retirement age while employed by the Company. Due to the repurchase feature, the Company estimated that holders of Incentive Securities would forfeit all of their Incentive Securities. As such, the Company did not recognize any compensation cost for the Incentive Securities for the period from January 1, 2021 to the Closing on April 20, 2021.

There were no Incentive Securities granted during the period from January 1, 2021 to April 20, 2021. On April 20, 2021, all Incentive Securities were converted to restricted shares pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement. There were no Incentive Securities outstanding as of March 31, 2022.

Note 13. Fair Value Measurements

The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Public Warrants are classified as Level 1 financial instruments. The fair value of Public Warrants has been measured based on the listed market price of such warrants.

The following table presents information about the Company's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022 (in thousands):

The change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities (Public Warrants) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is summarized as follows (in thousands):

Contingent consideration is classified as Level 3 financial instruments. The fair value of the Level 3 contingent consideration is determined based on significant unobservable inputs including discount rate, estimated revenue of the acquired business, and estimated probabilities of achieving specified technology development and operational milestones. Significant judgment is employed in determining the appropriateness of the inputs described above. Changes to the inputs could have a material impact on the company's financial position and results of operations in any given period.

With the respect to the contingent consideration obligation arising from the Spirable acquisition, the Company estimates the fair value at each subsequent reporting period using a probability weighted discounted cash flow model for contingent milestone payments and Monte Carlo simulation for contingent revenue payments.

General Litigation

From time to time, the Company is or may become subject to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings initiated by users, other entities, or regulatory bodies. Estimated liabilities are recorded when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In many instances, the Company is unable to determine whether a loss is probable or to reasonably estimate the amount of such a loss and, therefore, the potential future losses arising from a matter may differ from the amount of estimated liabilities the Company has recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements covering these matters. The Company reviews its estimates periodically and makes adjustments to reflect negotiations, estimated settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter.

BetConstruct Litigation

On September 6, 2019, the Company sent a letter to Soft Construct (Malta) Limited (d/b/a BetConstruct) ("BetConstruct") stating that BetConstruct has infringed on the Company's database rights by copying and using the contents of the Company's databases. In March 2020, the Company filed a claim against BetConstruct and its affiliates, Royal Panda Limited and Vivaro Limited, in the High Court of England and Wales with respect to their infringement of the Company's database rights. The Company is seeking injunctive and monetary relief against BetConstruct in connection with the alleged infringement. The claim has been amended to address the effects of Brexit. BetConstruct, having filed a defense, has now filed an amended defense and issued a counterclaim relating to competition law. Procedural steps in relation to the amended claim and amended defense and counterclaim on-going. Future timetable to be agreed. This litigation is currently on-going and the Company can provide no assurances regarding the outcome of these proceedings and the impact that they may have on the Company's business or reputation.

Sportradar Litigation

On February 28, 2020, Sportradar AG and Sportradar UK Limited (collectively, "Sportradar") filed a claim with the Registrar of the Competition Appeal Tribunal ("CAT") against Football DataCo Limited ("Football DataCo"), Betgenius Limited ("Betgenius"), a subsidiary of the Company, and the Company. Sportradar is claiming that the Company has breached Article 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and Chapter I of the Competition Act 1998 in connection with the Company's exclusive official live data agreement (the "Football DataCo Agreement") with Football DataCo.

Sportradar is seeking injunctive and monetary relief against the Company and Football DataCo in connection with the Football DataCo Agreement. The Company is currently defending the claim and Football DataCo (supported by the Company) made an application to transfer the claim from the Competition Appeal Tribunal to the U.K. High Court on June 29, 2020. In addition, the Company and Football DataCo have issued claims against Sportradar for matters including conspiracy to injure by unlawful means and breach of confidence in relation to Sportradar's unauthorized data collection activities at football club grounds where the Company has an exclusive right to collect official live data, which will be heard in the U.K. High Court (the foregoing litigation, the "Sportradar Litigation"), and seeks injunctive and monetary relief pursuant to such claims. A defense has been filed and served. Disclosure completed and witness evidence exchanged. Single trial listed to take place in autumn 2022. The outcome of the litigation is uncertain, and therefore, the Company is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that could result from an unfavorable outcome. This litigation is currently on-going and the Company can provide no assurances regarding the outcome of these proceedings and the impact that they may have on the Company's business or reputation.

Bank Letters of Credit

In the normal course of business, the Company provides standby letters of credit or other guarantee instruments to certain parties initiated by either the Company or its subsidiaries. The Company has bank guarantees with Barclays Bank PLC totaling approximately $39.4 million outstanding as of March 31, 2022.

The Company has not recorded any liability in connection with these bank guarantee arrangements. Based on historical experience and information currently available, the Company does not believe it will be required to make any payments under the bank guarantee arrangements. The Company has recorded $0.2 million and $0.2 million in interest expense in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Note 16. Related Party Transactions

The Company made payments of less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively in respect to consultancy services provided by Carbon Group Limited, a company whose directors include a Company director and shareholder.

Certain investment funds affiliated with Apax have provided the Company with a commitment letter in support of a guarantee issued by the Company to Barclays Bank PLC in connection with a letter of credit that Barclays provided to Football DataCo Limited for and on behalf of the Company for an aggregate amount of up to £30,000,000 (approximately $39.4 million as of March 31, 2022) (the "Commitment Letter"), upon the occurrence of certain events.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For purposes of this section, "we," "our," "us", "Genius" and the "company" refer to Genius Sports Limited and all of its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below).

The discussion should be read together with the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 included in this interim report. This management's discussion and analysis should also be read together with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 in our Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 18, 2022.

Overview

Genius is a B2B provider of scalable, technology-led products and services to the sports, sports wagering and sports media industries. Genius is a fast-growing business with significant scale, distribution and an expanding addressable market and opportunity ahead.

Genius' mission is to be the official data, technology and commercial partner that powers the global ecosystem connecting sports, betting and media. In doing so, Genius creates engaging and immersive fan experiences while simultaneously providing sports leagues with essential technology and vital, sustainable revenue streams.

Genius uniquely sits at the heart of the global sports betting ecosystem where Genius has deep, critical relationships with over 400 sports leagues and federations, over 500 sportsbook brands and over 150 marketing customers (which includes some of the aforementioned sportsbook brands).

Genius' Offerings

Sports Technology and Services. Genius builds and supplies technology and services that allow sports leagues to collect, analyze and monetize their data with added tools to deepen fan engagement. These tools include creation of fan-facing websites, rich statistical content such as team and player standings, immersive social media content, and, Genius' latest creation, its streaming product, a tool that allows sports leagues to automatically produce, distribute and commercialize live, audio-visual game content. Genius also provides sports leagues with bespoke monitoring technology and education services to help protect their competitions and athletes from the threats of match fixing and betting-related corruption. Following the acquisition of Second Spectrum, Inc ("Second Spectrum"), Genius is now a leading provider of cutting-edge data tracking and visualization solutions that partners with elite football and basketball clubs, leagues, federations, and media organizations around the world.

Genius' technology has become essential to their partners' operations and it would be inefficient or unaffordable for most sports leagues to build similar technology themselves. In return for the provision of their essential technology, the sports leagues typically grant to Genius the official sports data and streaming rights to collect, distribute and monetize the official data or streaming content.

Betting Technology, Content and Services. Genius builds and supplies data-driven technology that powers sportsbooks globally. Genius' offerings include official data, outsourced bookmaking, trading/risk management services and live audio-visual game content that is derived from its streaming partnerships with sports leagues.

Media Technology, Content and Services. Genius builds and supplies technology, services and data that enables sportsbooks, sports organizations, and other brands to target, acquire and retain sports fans as their customers in a highly effective and cost-efficient manner. Key services include the creation, delivery and measurement of personalized online marketing campaigns, all delivered using Genius' proprietary technology and proven to help advertisers reduce spend and wastage. Genius' sports media solutions provide incremental revenue opportunities for stakeholders across the entire sports ecosystem.

Events under Official Sports Data and Streaming Rights

Genius establishes long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with sports leagues, federations and teams that enable its partners to collect, organize and communicate data internally (e.g., for coaching analysis) or externally (e.g., for posting on fan-facing websites) and grant to Genius the rights to collect, distribute and monetize official sport data. Genius seeks to maintain an optimal portfolio of data rights, from high profile, widely followed sports events, such as the English Premier League ("EPL"), National Football League ("NFL"), National Basketball Association ("NBA") and other Tier 1 sports, to more specialized and less widely followed events, such as non-European soccer, non-US basketball, professional volleyball and other Tier 2 to 4 sports. This provides Genius with global breadth and depth of coverage across all tiers of sport, all time zones, and all geographical locations.

Data rights for Tier 1 sports, which include the most popular sports leagues, are typically acquired via formal tender processes and competitive bidding often resulting in high acquisition costs. For example, Genius' U.K. soccer data rights contract, which runs through the end of the 2023-2024 season and NFL data rights contract, which runs through the end of the 2026-2027 season, accounts for a significant majority of Genius' third-party data rights fees. Genius believes that its inventory of selectively acquired Tier 1 data rights is important to establishing relationships with sportsbooks on beneficial terms.

25

Data rights for lower tier sports are typically acquired through long-term agreements with the respective leagues in exchange for Genius' technology and software solutions (and, occasionally, cash fees). These non-Tier 1 sports are typically smaller leagues that are less prominent at a global level, although often are highly popular in their local countries or regions and often have large localized fan bases. Genius estimates that these sports comprise approximately 94% of the total volume of sporting events offered to sportsbooks.

Genius' events under official sports data and streaming rights form the backbone of its business model, and are a principal driver of revenue, particularly for the Betting Technology, Content and Services product line. Genius defines an "event" as a single sports match or competitive event. Genius' rights to collect, distribute and monetize the data related to such events may be exclusive (meaning that Genius has the exclusive right to collect, distribute, and monetize such data), co-exclusive (meaning that Genius shares collection, distribution, and monetization rights with one other company) or non-exclusive.

The following table presents Genius' number of events under official sports data and streaming rights, and the portion thereof under exclusive rights, as of the dates indicated:

Genius believes that data under official sports data and streaming rights is critical to sportsbooks, as only official data provides guaranteed access to the fast and reliable data necessary for in-game betting. To remain competitive, sportsbooks must be able to operate and provide customers with betting content around the clock, every single day of the year. This requires an extensive and broad portfolio of data and other content from Tier 1 and Tier 2-4 sports events. Events under exclusive rights give Genius an added commercial advantage over competitors and serve as a barrier of entry, making Genius an essential provider to its customers.

Additionally, Genius collects, distributes, and monetizes data from additional sporting events where no official sports data and streaming rights have been granted or it is legally permissible to do so. Accordingly, the total number of events to which Genius delivers data to its customers in a given period may exceed its total inventory of events under official sports data and streaming rights.

Factors Affecting Comparability of Financial Information

The Business Combination

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Genius Sports Limited legally acquired all the outstanding equity interests in Genius and dMY, in equity-for-equity exchange transactions ("the Merger"). The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Genius was the accounting acquirer in the Merger and dMY was treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. Genius Sports Limited became a new public, SEC-reporting company and Genius was deemed its predecessor, meaning that Genius Sports Limited's periodic reports after the consummation of the Merger would reflect Genius' historical financial results. See condensed consolidated financial statements on Form 6-K for the period ending June 30, 2021.

As a result of the Merger, Genius Sports Limited is now a publicly traded company with its ordinary shares trading on New York Stock Exchange, requiring it to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. Genius Sports Limited expects to incur material additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors' and officers' liability insurance, director fees, and additional internal and external accounting, legal, and administrative resources, including increased personnel costs, audit and other professional service fees.

Acquisition of Second Spectrum Inc.

On June 15, 2021, the Company acquired all outstanding equity interests in Second Spectrum for a total consideration of $198.3 million including $115.0 million in cash and $83.3 million in equity, reflecting a working capital adjustment of $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Second Spectrum is a leading provider of cutting-edge data tracking and visualization solutions that partners with elite football and basketball clubs, leagues, federations, and media organizations around the world.

Second Spectrum was founded in 2013 and has become a world-leading and fully integrated sports AI provider, offering tracking, analytics and data visualization services. Second Spectrum's innovative technology allows clients to automatically index action on the court, pitch or field within seconds. With the world's most advanced player tracking technology, teams, leagues, media and data partners are able to gain real-time insights; driving decision making and greater levels of engagement. Second Spectrum is the official

26

tracking provider of the EPL, NBA, and MLS, using advanced AI capabilities and computer vision technology to capture precise ball and player location-based data. In addition to these relationships, Second Spectrum has partnerships with ESPN, BT Sport, and Bally Sports to offer augmented reality features for select soccer and basketball games. The business has also formed partnerships with leading sports franchises, including The Los Angeles Clippers, to provide new content and revolutionize the fan viewing experience. The combined offering of the Company's existing products, extensive network, and operational scale with Second Spectrum's highly innovative tracking and video augmentation products will create richer, more valuable official sports data and drive fan engagement with a compelling experience that combines real-time data, and analytics with innovative augmented video streaming and personalized content.

As part of the Company's initial assessment, intangible assets acquired relate to existing technology, customer relationships and trademarks.

NFL License Agreement

On April 1, 2021, the Company entered into a new multi-year strategic partnership with the NFL (the "License Agreement"). Under the terms of the License Agreement, the Company obtains the right to serve as the worldwide exclusive distributor of NFL official data to the global regulated sports betting market, the worldwide exclusive distributor of NFL official data to the global media market, the NFL's exclusive international distributor of live digital video to the regulated sports betting market (outside of the United States where permitted), and the NFL's exclusive sports betting and i-gaming advertising partner. The License Agreement contemplates a six-year period (the "Term"), with an initial four-year period commencing April 1, 2021 and years five and six renewable by NFL in one year increments. Pursuant to the License Agreement, the Company, agreed to issue the NFL an aggregate of up to 18,500,000 warrants and 2,000,000 additional warrants for each annual extension, with each warrant entitling NFL to purchase one ordinary share of the Company for an exercise price of $0.01 per warrant share. The warrants will be subject to vesting over the six-year term.

CFL Ventures

On December 10, 2021, the Company announced a landmark strategic partnership with the Canadian Football League ("CFL" or "the League"), the second largest football league globally with over 100 years of history. As part of the agreement, Genius Sports will have the exclusive rights to commercialize the CFL's official data worldwide and video content with sportsbooks in international markets, replicating the global distribution and success of its official betting products for the EPL and NFL, among others. In connection with the partnership, in addition to the official data rights agreement, Genius Sports and the CFL have also agreed that Genius Sports will acquire a minority stake in CFL Ventures, the new commercial arm of the League, allowing the Company to benefit strategically and financially from the CFL's growth. The transaction became effective in January 2022.

Key Components of Revenue and Expenses

Revenue

Genius generates revenue primarily through delivery of products and services to customers in connection with the following major product groups: Betting Technology, Content and Services, Media Technology, Content and Services, and Sports Technology and Services. The following table shows Genius' revenue split by product group, for the periods indicated:

Betting Technology, Content and Services - revenue is primarily generated through the delivery of official sports data for in-game and pre-match betting and outsourced bookmaking services through the Genius' proprietary sportsbook platform. Customers access Genius' sportsbook platform and associated services through the cloud over the contract term. Customer contracts are typically either on (i) a "fixed" basis, requiring customers to pay a guaranteed minimum recurring fee for a specified number of events, with incremental per-event fees thereafter, or (ii) a "variable" basis, based on a percentage share of the customer's Gross Gaming Revenue ("GGR"), typically with minimum payment guarantees. Minimum guarantee amounts are generally recognized over the life of the contract on a straight-line basis, while generally variable fees based on profit sharing and per event overage fees are recognized as earned. Genius believes that its minimum payment guarantees provide for enhanced revenue visibility while the variable component of its contracts benefits Genius as its partners grow.

27

Media Technology, Content and Services - revenue is primarily generated from providing data-driven performance marketing technology and services, including personalized online marketing campaigns, to sportsbooks, sports leagues and federations, along with other global brands in the sports ecosystem. Genius typically offers its solutions on a fixed fee basis, which is generally prepaid by customers. Revenue is generally recognized over time as the services are performed using an input method based on costs to secure advertising space. Genius also provides customers with data driven video marketing capabilities through the acquisition of Photospire Limited ("Spirable") and their creative performance platform, and a suite of technology solutions for digital fan engagement products and free to play ("F2P") games through the acquisition of Fan Hub Media Holdings Pty Limited ("FanHub"). Customers subscribe or access these products through hosted service over the contractual term in exchange for a fixed annual fee, subject to certain variable components.

Sports Technology and Services - revenue is primarily generated through the delivery of technology that enables sports leagues and federations to capture, manage and distribute their official sports data, along with other tools and services, including software updates and technical support. These software solutions are tailored for specific sports. Also included within Sports Technology, Content and Services are revenues derived from Sportzcast, Inc. ("Sportzcast"), a company acquired in December 2020, and Second Spectrum, acquired in June 2021. In some instances, Genius receives noncash consideration in the form of official sports data and streaming rights, along with other rights, in exchange for these services, particularly to non-Tier 1 sports organizations. Because there is not a readily determinable fair value for these unique data rights, Genius estimates the fair value of noncash consideration based on the standalone selling price of the services promised to customers. Revenue is recognized either ratably over the contract term or as the services are provided, by event or season, depending on the nature of the underlying promised product or service. Genius also provides sports teams and leagues with player tracking systems that capture and produce fast and accurate location data used to power new ways to understand, evaluate, improve and create content their game, enhanced data analytics programs and real-time video augmentation services through the acquisition of Second Spectrum. Depending on the nature of the underlying product or service, revenue is recognized ratably over the contract term or recognized over time using an output method based on deliverables to the customer.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of revenue. Genius' cost of revenue includes costs related to (i) amortization of intangible assets, mainly related to Genius' capitalized internally developed software and acquired intangibles, (ii) fees for third-party data and streaming rights under executory contracts, including stock-based compensation for non-employees, (iii) data collection and production, third-party server and bandwidth and outsourced bookmaking, and (iv) advertising costs directly associated with Genius' Media Technology, Content and Services offerings.

Genius believes that its cost of revenue is highly scalable over the longer term. While key components of cost of revenue, such as server and bandwidth costs and personnel costs related to revenue-generating activities, are variable, Genius expects them to grow at a slower pace than revenue. Other key costs, such as third-party data including those related to Genius' EPL and NFL contract, are typically fixed.

Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of sales personnel costs, including compensation, stock-based compensation, commissions and benefits, amortization of costs to obtain a contract associated with capitalized commissions costs, event attendance, event sponsorships, association memberships, marketing subscriptions, and third-party consulting fees.

Research and development. Research and development ("R&D") expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for the development of new products related to Genius' platform and services, as well as improving existing products and services. The costs incurred included related personnel salaries and benefits, stock-based compensation, facility costs, server and bandwidth costs, consulting costs, and amortization of production software costs.

R&D expenses can be volatile between periods, as Genius capitalizes a significant portion of its internally developed software costs, in periods where a product completes the preliminary project stage and it is probable the project will be completed and performed as intended. Capitalized internally developed software costs are typically amortized in cost of revenue.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses ("G&A") consist primarily of administrative personnel costs, including executive salaries, bonuses and benefits, stock-based compensation, professional services (including legal, regulatory, audit and licensing-related), legal settlements and contingencies, rent expense and depreciation of property and equipment.

Transaction expenses. Transaction expenses consists primarily of advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, other professional or consulting fees, and bonuses in connection with Genius' corporate development activities. Direct and indirect transaction expenses in a business combination are expensed as incurred when the service is received.

Gain on fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration. Gain on fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration represents the change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities related to historical acquisitions. Contingent consideration liabilities are revalued at each reporting period.

28

Change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities. Change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities represents the change in fair value of public and private warrant liabilities assumed as part of the Merger. Warrant liabilities are revalued at each reporting period.

Income tax expense. Genius accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method whereby deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities. The provision for income taxes reflects income earned and taxed, mainly in the United Kingdom. See Note 14 - Income Taxes, to Genius' unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere herein.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report on Form 6-K includes certain non-GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted EBITDA

Genius presents Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP performance measure, to supplement its results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization and other items that are unusual or not related to Genius' revenue-generating operations, including stock-based compensation expense, change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities and remeasurement of contingent consideration.

Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate Genius' core operating performance on a comparable basis and to make strategic decisions. Genius believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors for the same reasons as well as in evaluating Genius' operating performance against competitors, which commonly disclose similar performance measures. However, Genius' calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled performance measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a substitute for any U.S. GAAP financial measure.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Genius' Adjusted EBITDA to its net loss for the periods indicated:

On a constant currency basis, Adjusted EBITDA would have been $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

29

Constant Currency

Certain income statement items in this Report on Form 6-K are discussed on a constant currency basis. As discussed under "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk-Foreign Exchange Exposure," Genius' results between periods may not be comparable due to foreign currency translation effects. Genius presents certain income statement items on a constant currency basis, as if GBP:USD exchange rate had remained constant period-over-period, to enhance the comparability of its results. Genius calculates income statement constant currency amounts by taking the relevant average GBP:USD exchange rate used in the preparation of its income statement for the more recent comparative period and applies it to the actual GBP amount used in the preparation of its income statement for the prior comparative period.

Constant currency amounts only adjust for the impact related to the translation of Genius' consolidated financial statements from GBP to USD. Constant currency amounts do not adjust for any other translation effects, such as the translation of results of subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than GBP or USD, as such effects have not been material to date.

Operating Results

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

The following table summarizes Genius' consolidated results of operations for the periods indicated.

Revenue

Revenue was $85.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $53.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Revenue increased $32.2 million, or 60%. On a constant currency basis, revenue would have increased $33.6 million, or 64% in the three months ended March 31, 2022.

30

Betting Technology, Content and Services revenue increased $10.8 million, or 28%, to $49.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $39.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Growth in business with existing customers as a result of price increases on contract renewals and renegotiations powered by Genius' official data rights strategy, expansion of value-add services, and new service offerings contributed $3.2 million to the increase, while another $7.3 million was attributable to new customer acquisitions, while a further $0.2 million was driven by increased customer utilization of Genius' available event content. Events under official sports data and streaming rights increased to 198,984 as of March 31, 2022 from 185,676 as of March 31, 2021.

Media Technology, Content and Services revenue increased $14.8 million, or 157%, to $24.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily driven by the acquisition of new customers in the Americas and Europe primarily for programmatic advertising services, and the inclusion of revenues from recent acquisitions.

Sports Technology and Services revenue increased $6.7 million, or 123%, to $12.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This was driven by the inclusion of revenues derived from acquisitions, including Second Spectrum (acquired in June 2021). In addition, there was also growth driven by expanded services provided to existing sports league and federation customers across all tiers of sport. Revenue for contracts where Genius receives non-cash consideration in the form of official sports data and streaming rights was $3.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $3.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue was $101.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $40.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $61.3 million increase in cost of revenue includes $22.5 million stock-based compensation. Excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, the increase would have been $38.8 million, which is primarily driven by increased data rights and media direct costs and increased amortization of capitalized software development costs and acquired intangibles.

Data and streaming rights costs were $34.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $14.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $19.7 million increase is driven primarily by Genius's official data rights strategy.

Media direct costs were $11.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $5.8 million increase is driven primarily by programmatic advertising revenues in the Americas and Europe.

Amortization of capitalized software development costs was $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase is driven primarily by Genius' continued investment in new product offerings which has resulted in increased capitalization of internally developed software costs. Other amortization and depreciation was $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase is driven primarily by amortization of acquired intangibles, arising from acquisitions completed in 2021.

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing expenses were $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $5.3 million increase includes $0.6 million stock-based compensation in relation to equity awards issued to management. Excluding the impact of the stock-based compensation in relation to equity awards issued to management, the increase would have been $4.8 million, which is primarily driven by higher staff costs due to recent acquisitions completed in 2021, investment in Genius teams in the United States of America to drive growth in that country.

Research and development

Research and development expenses were $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $4.1 million increase includes $0.2 million stock-based compensation in relation to equity awards issued to management. Excluding the impact of the stock-based compensation in relation to equity awards issued to management, the increase would have been $3.9 million, which was primarily due to increased staff costs due to recent acquisitions completed in 2021 and investment in the underlying Genius platform and teams to drive future growth.

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses were $32.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $23.9 million increase includes $13.9 million stock-based compensation in relation to equity awards issued to management. Excluding the impact of the stock-based compensation in relation to equity awards issued to management, the increase would have been $10.1 million, which was driven by increased costs associated with ongoing business activities and efforts involved to operate as a public company, and higher staff costs associated with acquisitions completed in 2021.

Transaction expenses

Transaction expenses were $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to costs related to investments in the period.

31

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net was $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The $2.0 million decrease is primarily due to the settlement in full of the Investor Loan Notes and the Related Party Loan upon consummation of the Merger in April 2021.

Gain on fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration

Genius recorded a gain on fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration of $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which mainly relates to Second Spectrum.

Change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities

Change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities was $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, due to revaluation of the public warrants assumed as part of the Merger.

Foreign currency gain (loss)

Genius recorded a foreign currency gain of $12.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and a loss of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The gain in the three months ended March 31, 2022 was mainly due to the depreciation of the GBP against local currencies during that period, in particular the USD.

Income tax (expense) benefit

Income tax expense was $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and income tax benefit was $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The change to income tax expense in the three months ended March 31, 2022 from income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily due to the effect of income tax expenses in overseas jurisdictions, together with the unavailability of being able to take any additional tax timing benefit for the additional UK losses incurred in the period.

Net loss

Net loss was $40.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Genius measures liquidity in terms of its ability to fund the cash requirements of its business operations, including working capital and capital expenditure needs, contractual obligations and other commitments, with cash flows from operations and other sources of funding. Genius' current working capital needs relate mainly to launching its product offerings and acquiring new data rights in new geographies, as well as compensation and benefits of its employees. Genius' recurring capital expenditures consist primarily of internally developed software costs and property and equipment (such as buildings, IT equipment, and furniture and fixtures). Genius expects its capital expenditure and working capital requirements to increase as it continues to expand its product offerings across the United States, but has not made any firm capital commitments. Genius' ability to expand and grow its business will depend on many factors, including its working capital needs and the evolution of its operating cash flows.

Genius cannot guarantee that its available cash resources will be sufficient to meet its liquidity needs. Genius may need additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other developments, including unanticipated regulatory developments, significant acquisitions or competitive pressures. Genius believes that its cash on hand will be sufficient to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. To the extent that its current resources are insufficient to satisfy its cash requirements, Genius may need to seek additional equity or debt financing. If the needed financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than expected, Genius may be forced to decrease its level of investment in new product launches and related marketing initiatives or to scale back its existing operations, which could have an adverse impact on its business and financial prospects.

Debt

Genius had $15.2 million and $0.1 million in debt outstanding as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Substantially all of this debt was in the form of Promissory Notes bearing non-cash interest at 4.7% annually.

In addition, Genius has a £150 thousand overdraft facility (the "Overdraft Facility"), which was undrawn at the date of this Report on Form 6-K.

32

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes Genius' cash flows for the periods indicated:

Operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $25.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022, while net cash provided by operating activities was $3.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. In the three months ended March 31, 2022 net cash used in operating activities primarily reflected changes in working capital ($18.1 million) and Genius' net loss net of non-cash items ($7.2 million). In the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash provided by operating activities primarily reflected the impact of Genius' net income net of non-cash items of $6.9 million offset by changes in working capital of $3.6 million.

Investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $19.5 million and $4.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, investing cash flows primarily reflect internally developed software costs and purchases of intangible assets of $10.4 million, purchases of property and equipment of $1.2 million and equity investments of $8.0 million. In the three months ended March 31, 2021, investing cash flows primarily reflect internally developed software costs and purchases of intangible assets of $4.0 million and purchases of property and equipment of $0.2 million.

Financing activities

Net cash used in and provided by financing activities was not significant for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Genius' condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. Preparation of the financial statements requires Genius' management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amount of revenue and expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management considers an accounting judgment, estimate or assumption to be critical when (1) the estimate or assumption is complex in nature or requires a high degree of judgment and (2) the use of different judgments, estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on Genius' condensed consolidated financial statements. Genius' significant accounting policies include the following:

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements are described in Note 1 - Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to Genius' unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report on Form 6-K.

Emerging Growth Company Accounting Election

Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 ("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. Genius Sports Limited is an "emerging growth company" as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and has elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. This may make it difficult to compare Genius Sports Limited's 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 because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

33

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Genius' primary and currently only material market risk exposure is to foreign currency exchange.

Foreign Exchange Exposure

Genius' results of operations between periods are affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Genius' assets and liabilities and results of operations are translated from its functional currency, the British Pound Sterling ("GBP") into its reporting currency, the United States Dollar ("USD"), which is Genius' reporting currency, using the average exchange rate during the relevant period for income and expense items and the period-end exchange rate for assets and liabilities.

The effect of translating Genius' functional currency amounts into USD is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholders' equity but is not reported in Genius' income statement. However, changes in GBP-USD exchange rate between periods directly impact the amount of revenue and expense reported by Genius, and therefore its results of operations between periods may not be comparable. Genius estimates that a hypothetical 10% appreciation of the USD against the GBP would have resulted in a $8.6 million and $5.4 million decrease in reported revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 6-K, Genius reports certain items on a constant currency basis to facilitate comparability between periods.

In addition, Genius is a global business that transacts with customers and vendors worldwide and makes and receives payments in several different currencies, and from time to time may also engage in intercompany transfers to and from its subsidiaries. Genius re-measures amounts payable on transactions denominated in currencies other than GBP into GBP and records the relevant gain or loss, which occurs due to timing differences between recognition of a transaction on the income statement and the related payment, under the income statement caption "gain (loss) on foreign currency." Genius does not hedge its foreign currency translation or transaction exposure, though it may do so in the future.
