Enhanced Group NYSE: ENHA reported a narrower third-quarter loss as spending on its inaugural Enhanced Games fell, while executives outlined plans to expand its consumer health platform and acquire a majority stake in European live entertainment company DEAG.
The company posted revenue of $3.3 million for the third quarter of 2026, down from $17.7 million in the second quarter, when it staged the inaugural Games. It reported no revenue in the year-earlier period. Net loss narrowed to $13.5 million from $61.9 million in the second quarter, but widened from $5.9 million a year earlier.
Chief Executive Officer Maximilian Martin said Enhanced is targeting profitability for its Live Enhanced consumer health business by the end of 2026 and break-even or better results for its sports business in 2027. Those goals come as the company prepares to launch a health platform and integrate DEAG, subject to completing the transaction.
Costs fall after inaugural Games
Third-quarter operating expenses fell to $16.8 million from $79.6 million in the second quarter, when the company held the Games, completed its de-SPAC transaction and became publicly traded. Expenses were $6 million in the third quarter of 2025.
Games, athlete and event costs dropped to $2.7 million from $52 million in the second quarter. The latest figure included costs for the first Enhanced Breakers event in Los Angeles, athlete stipends and approximately $1.5 million in non-cash share awards, Chief Financial Officer Sid Banthiya said.
The company reported an adjusted EBITDA loss of $8.8 million, compared with losses of $42.7 million in the second quarter and $3.8 million a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure; the company said a reconciliation to net loss is available in its earnings release.
Banthiya said underlying selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $7.8 million after excluding non-cash marketing expense, stock-based compensation and certain one-time items. He attributed the increase from the second quarter primarily to the costs of operating as a public company.
Health platform and marketing plans
Enhanced opened sign-ups for invitation-based early access to Enhanced OS, with a full launch planned for January 2027. Martin said the platform combines medical records, diagnostics covering more than 100 biomarkers and wearable data to recommend personalized health protocols.
Early access will focus on supplement recommendations and health insights, with prescription integration planned for January. Martin said prescription protocols will be reviewed and decided upon by a licensed clinician together with the consumer. The annual membership will cost $199, with additional purchases available for diagnostics, supplements and prescription drugs, he said.
Live Enhanced generated $1.1 million in gross revenue in the third quarter, up from about $0.4 million in the second quarter, Banthiya said. Performance marketing spending was approximately $1.5 million in each quarter. Executives said they held spending flat while developing the platform and intend to increase their commercial push after the full launch.
Martin also said the company recently added six peptides to its prescription offering, bringing the total to approximately 20 treatments, subject to clinical evaluation and prescribing by licensed physicians. He described early organic interest in the peptides as strong but said the company was awaiting marketing guidance from Meta and Google.
DEAG deal and 2027 outlook
Enhanced announced an agreement to acquire a majority stake in DEAG, which stages more than 6,000 events and sells more than 12 million tickets annually, according to management. The business includes concerts, festivals and ticketing company myticket.
Subject to closing the transaction, Enhanced expects the combined business to generate approximately $670 million in revenue and $26 million in positive adjusted EBITDA in 2027. Banthiya said the forecasts did not include potential cost or revenue synergies.
Martin said potential benefits include using myticket for Enhanced events, sharing sponsorship opportunities and eventually marketing consumer products to DEAG customers. He cautioned that revenue synergies could take time to materialize.
Banthiya said consideration for DEAG would be paid entirely in stock. He also said a separate $15 million private placement announced alongside the deal is expected to close with the transaction. Earlier in the call, Martin described the concurrent financing as $50 million, before later referring to it as $15 million. Enhanced separately completed a $50 million private placement during the third quarter.
The company ended the quarter with $12.1 million in cash. Banthiya pointed to additional expected liquidity from the $15 million financing, the planned monetization of $10 million in Rezolve shares after a December unlock, and $10 million in expected consideration under a ZOOP arrangement. Together with cash on hand, those sources represent approximately $47 million, he said.
Sports events target break-even
Enhanced is planning its next Games for the fourth quarter of 2027 with a budget of approximately $20 million, Martin said. The company expects to shorten the event and reduce the number of athletes and competitions.
Management is pursuing media rights, ticket sales and host-city economic development support in addition to sponsorship revenue. Martin said sponsorship was the sole revenue line for the 2026 Games.
The second Enhanced Breakers event is scheduled for December 19 in Las Vegas, with a third being planned for the first quarter of 2027. Martin said the company is currently operating on a quarterly Breakers cadence and could eventually target two Games a year, while accounting for athletes’ training schedules.
