    Why it matters

    RaceControl is a key driver of high-margin, recurring revenue and player lifetime value, central to the company's long-term strategy.

    Yes, at the moment, we've got a run rate of $2.9 million for the year. The attach rate to subscription seems to be relatively consistent, and we're able to forecast that relatively accurately. So we feel quite confident💬 in its continued growth throughout the rest of the year.

    Q&A highlights

    4

    How is the first USA Track Pack trending, and what is the roadmap for additional content releases through 2027?

    The first USA Track Pack has performed better than hoped, receiving a very good community reaction. Two additional content packs are planned for release later in the year (September and December). The company is actively exploring content for 2027 and will share more on a new title in the next earnings call.

    Yes, I mean, so far, we've seen a very good reaction from our community to that release. It, in fact, has been performing better than we had hoped, which is good. It's been a strong initial release.

    Detailed Narrative

    01

    RaceControl Platform Evolution

    RaceControl is increasingly central to Motorsport Games' strategy, offering a free-to-join player platform with premium subscription tiers. This SaaS model enables direct player relationships, promotes new content, and converts engaged players into subscribers, expanding the experience and increasing player monetization. RaceControl's high-margin recurring revenue and ability to increase player lifetime value (LTV) are key strategic advantages, with the company continuing to invest in its growth and engagement.

    02

    Le Mans Ultimate Performance & Content Roadmap

    Le Mans Ultimate continues to be a primary growth engine, with player engagement accelerating. April marked the highest-ever month for average daily active users. The game has sold over 0.5 million base units and more than 1.2 million individual pieces of downloadable content (DLC). Post-quarter-end, the company released the U.S. Track Pack (version 1.4) in July, adding Daytona and Laguna Seca, with Packs 2 and 3 expected in September and December, respectively. The company is exploring future content for 2027 and plans to share details on a new title in the next earnings call.

    03

    Console Development Progress

    Development of Le Mans Ultimate for PlayStation and Xbox platforms is proceeding as planned. This initiative aims to bring a high-fidelity simulation experience to the home console market, widening the company's reach to an underserved segment of players who may not have access to high-end gaming PCs. The learnings from this complex project are expected to benefit future releases and contribute to the company's growth.

    04

    Financial Performance & Efficiency

    The company has demonstrated consistent revenue growth and gross profit margin expansion over the past 3.5 years, indicating efficient scaling. First half 2026 revenue was $7.6 million, up 74% year-on-year, with gross profit growing 86.9% to $6.4 million. Gross profit margin expanded to 84.7%. The company achieved positive GAAP net income for the sixth consecutive quarter, reporting $1.2 million in H1 2026, and adjusted EBITDA of $2.2 million for H1 2026, more than double the prior year.

    05

    Capital Structure & Leadership

    Motorsport Games completed the purchase of $3.7 million in Class A common stock from Driven Lifestyle Group, retiring all outstanding Class B shares and simplifying its capital structure to ensure equal voting rights for all common stock. Peter Hansen-Chambers joined as Chief Financial Officer, bringing extensive experience from other gaming companies. Stanley Beckley continues as Chief Accounting and Compliance Officer, reflecting an expansion of the finance team to support the company's growth trajectory.

    06

    Strategic Vision

    The company is increasingly focused on its next stage of growth, leveraging its simulation technology, RaceControl platform, live service infrastructure, and the success of Le Mans Ultimate. Management views Motorsport Games as a boutique game studio building an entire ecosystem for racing and driving fans, with long-term bets paying off and foundations in place to deliver on its roadmap. Further details on this roadmap are anticipated in the next earnings call.
