DraftKings falls 24.45% premarket after updating its outlook
DraftKings traded at $17.77 in the premarket on 6 November at 14:02 CET, 24.45% below its 5 November close of $23.52. This was a premarket snapshot, not a closing price.
The largest absolute move in the checked set of large and liquid companies was DraftKings. StockAnalysis showed the shares at $17.77 in premarket trading on 6 November 2026 at 08:02 US Eastern time, or 14:02 CET. The reference was the 5 November close of $23.52, a decline of $5.75 or 24.45%. This was a premarket quote, not the regular-session open or close.
In the compared premarket set, JFrog was up 22.39%, Cloudflare 19.22%, and DraftKings was down 24.24% in a later table read at 14:26 CET. Reuters also reported an 18% decline in Teleperformance during the European session. The set does not include every listed company and is not a whole-market ranking; DraftKings stood out for the size of the move, its market value and trading liquidity.
The confirmed context was DraftKings' third-quarter report filed with the SEC on 5 November. The company reported revenue of $1.329 billion, up 16% year over year. Monthly unique payers increased about 13% to 4.1 million, while average revenue per monthly unique payer rose about 3% to $109.
At the same time, net loss attributable to common stockholders widened to $468.72 million from $256.79 million a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $316.90 million, compared with negative $126.49 million in the comparable quarter. These are company-reported figures; they should not be mixed with the share price or presented as the sole cause of the move.
DraftKings updated its fiscal 2026 outlook to revenue of $6.35 billion to $6.55 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $175 million to $275 million. The company also described planned 2026 adjusted EBITDA investment of $650 million to $700 million in Predictions. The outlook describes management's expectations for the business, not a future share price.
For fiscal 2027, the company introduced revenue guidance of $7.35 billion to $7.75 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $800 million to $1.0 billion. That includes expected Predictions revenue of $650 million to $750 million and adjusted EBITDA investment of $250 million to $350 million in the segment. Core-business adjusted EBITDA is expected at $1.15 billion to $1.25 billion.
Premarket prices are usually formed with fewer active orders than regular-session prices and can change after the market opens. The earnings call began at 14:30 CET, after the price snapshot used here; later management comments may add information, but they were not retrofitted into the earlier quote. The facts are the $17.77 price and 24.45% decline at the stated time; persistence or reversal remains a scenario.

Why can revenue growth coexist with a falling share price?
The market compares more than year-over-year revenue growth: it also weighs results against expectations, growth costs and new guidance. In this report, revenue increased, but the loss widened and the company outlined substantial investment in Predictions.
That does not allow the entire decline to be assigned to one line item. The price reflects many orders and assessments, so this article separates published figures from interpretation of the reaction.
How should a premarket move be read?
A premarket quote describes a price before the regular session and should be paired with the previous close and an exact timestamp. It is not a forecast of either the opening or closing price.
For DraftKings, the reference was the 5 November close of $23.52 and the $17.77 snapshot was timestamped 14:02 CET. Any later reading can differ without invalidating the earlier snapshot.
