Federal Court Orders Papaya Gaming to Pay $719 Million to Skillz Platform Inc., a FIRY (NYSE: FIRY) Company, Disgorging Its Unjust Profits From False Advertising<\/b><\/p>\n

Ruling Increases Skillz’s Recovery by Nearly $300 Million, 71% Above the April Jury Award. Court Rejects All of Papaya’s Post-Trial Challenges in the Largest False Advertising Case in U.S. History<\/b><\/p>\n

LAS VEGAS–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nFiry Inc. (NYSE: FIRY) (“FIRY”), formerly Skillz Inc., today announced a post-trial victory over Papaya Gaming: the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York issued an order stating that it will enter judgment against Papaya Gaming of $719 million in disgorgement of Papaya\u2019s unjust profits to FIRY\u2019s wholly owned subsidiary, Skillz Platform Inc. (the “Company”), plus an award of certain attorney\u2019s fees and costs, nearly $300 million more than the jury\u2019s April award. The false advertising lawsuit was filed in 2024 against Papaya Gaming for violations of the federal Lanham Act and the New York General Business Law.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe founded this industry and built its biggest and best company on one value above all others: honor,\u201d said Andrew Paradise, CEO and Founder of FIRY. \u201cWhen growth stalled, investors decided our moat was a story. It was not. In a winner-take-most market, Papaya could not beat us fairly, so it used bots to fake the competition we invented. This judgment sets the record straight. The moat was real. Fourteen years in, on our path to one hundred, Skillz is back to defining what this industry was built for: fair, fun, and meaningful competition.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe $719 million disgorgement, found by both the jury and the Court as the appropriate measure of recovery, was entered in lieu of the $420 million in actual damages awarded in April 2026, as the Company is entitled to recover once for its injury.<\/p>\n

\nA unanimous federal jury found Papaya\u2019s advertising was false. The evidence showed that between 2021 and 2024, approximately 70% of the $6.7 billion in prize money Papaya advertised, roughly $4.7 billion, was never actually paid to customers because Papaya\u2019s bots \u201cwon\u201d the prizes instead. Papaya\u2019s more than 13 million bot participants outnumbered its roughly 11 million real human players. In April 2026, the jury awarded the Company $420 million in actual damages, the largest false advertising verdict in U.S. history under the Lanham Act. The Court has now denied all of Papaya\u2019s post-trial motions challenging the verdict.<\/p>\n

\nThe Court also awarded the Company approximately $10 million in attorney\u2019s fees for 2024 and 2025. Separately, the Court awarded certain litigation costs arising from Papaya executives\u2019 invocation of the Fifth Amendment during discovery. A separate opinion addressing the Company\u2019s request for injunctive relief is forthcoming.<\/p>\n

\nThe Company intends to vigorously pursue full collection of the judgment; however, no assurance can be given as to the timing or amount of any ultimate recovery, including in light of any appeal or further proceedings.<\/p>\n
