Motorsport Games (MSGM) Rockets Premarket on Q3 Profit; Terminates $12M Related‑Party Credit Line as Le Mans Ultimate Momentum Builds — Nov. 7, 2025

by
7 November 2025

Motorsport Games Inc. (NASDAQ: MSGM) is back in the headlines today after reporting a profitable third quarter late Thursday and disclosing a governance‑style cleanup of its capital structure. Shares spiked more than +120% premarket to $4.88 before giving back gains after the open, as investors digested the details behind the turnaround and the company’s flagship sim, Le Mans Ultimate. [1]

Key takeaways

  • Back‑to‑back profitability: Q3 FY2025 revenue $3.10M (+71.9% YoY), net income $0.77M (vs. a loss a year ago), gross margin 80.7%; EPS $0.14. [2]
  • Stock reaction: Premarket +122.8% to $4.88; intraday trading later cooled. (Current price above.) [3]
  • Liquidity & governance: On Nov. 5, MSGM terminated a $12M related‑party line of credit with majority shareholder Driven Lifestyle Group LLC; there was no outstanding balance. [4]
  • Product flywheel: Turnaround powered by Le Mans Ultimate (official WEC & 24H Le Mans game), which hit Version 1.0 on July 22, 2025 and carries “Mostly Positive” reviews on Steam. [5]
  • Roadmap: A console port of Le Mans Ultimate is in early production, targeted between late 2026 and early 2027. [6]

What happened and why it matters

Late Thursday (Nov. 6), Motorsport Games posted Q3 2025 results showing a sharp year‑over‑year revenue jump and a second straight quarter of profitability. Management credited sustained player engagement and content momentum around Le Mans Ultimate—including the European Le Mans Series drop in late September—for the improved top line and margins. The company also spotlighted cost discipline that pulled operating expenses down materially year over year. [7]

The headline numbers were strong for a micro‑cap publisher: $3.10M revenue (+71.9%), $2.50M gross profit, 80.7% gross margin, $0.77M net income, and $1.06M Adjusted EBITDA. Cash and equivalents were $4.1M on Sept. 30, rising to $4.5M by Oct. 31, supported by positive operating cash flow and legal‑settlement inflows. [8]

Markets noticed. Before the opening bell today, MSGM surged to $4.88 (+122.8%) on heavy premarket volume after the profit print, even as the stock retraced during regular hours—a familiar volatility pattern for thinly traded, catalyst‑driven names. [9]

The under‑the‑radar update investors shouldn’t miss

Buried in the fresh Form 10‑Q filed Nov. 6, MSGM disclosed it terminated a $12 million related‑party line of credit with its majority shareholder on Nov. 5, 2025. The facility had no outstanding balance and, per the filing, was no longer viewed as a viable future liquidity source. The move reduces potential conflicts tied to related‑party financing and simplifies the capital stack heading into 2026. [10]

The same 10‑Q shows 5,078,450 Class A and 700,000 Class B shares outstanding as of Nov. 6, 2025, a useful data point for modeling EPS and float dynamics after the year’s capital raises and warrant activity. [11]

Product momentum: Le Mans Ultimate is doing the heavy lifting

  • Version 1.0 launchedJuly 22, 2025 following an Early Access cycle, adding notable 2025 content and physics improvements. [12]
  • On Steam, Le Mans Ultimate currently sits at “Mostly Positive” with roughly ~76–79% positive recent and English‑language reviews, a sign of improving user sentiment in a demanding sim‑racing community. [13]
  • Management says a console port (PlayStation/Xbox) is in early production with an ETA in late 2026 to early 2027—a potentially major TAM unlock if execution holds. [14]

By the numbers (Q3 FY2025)

  • Revenue:$3.10M (Q3 2024: $1.80M)
  • Gross Margin:80.7% (Q3 2024: 60.2%)
  • Net Income:$0.77M (Q3 2024: –$0.57M)
  • Adj. EBITDA:$1.06M (Q3 2024: $0.05M)
  • Cash:$4.1M at Sept. 30; $4.5M at Oct. 31
  • Operating cash flow (9M25): ~$0.3M/month on average
    (All figures per the company’s Nov. 6 press release and 10‑Q.) [15]

What to watch next

  • Console development milestones: Concrete updates on timing, platform features, and certification for the planned PlayStation/Xbox port will be key demand drivers beyond PC. [16]
  • Sustained engagement & DLC cadence: After the ELMS content introduction and 1.0 upgrade, watch retention, concurrency, and attach rates into the holiday period. [17]
  • Balance‑sheet discipline: With the related‑party LOC now terminated, track cash runway, deferred‑revenue trends, and any follow‑on capital actions or warrant approvals from recent financings. [18]
  • Volatility risk: The stock’s premarket surge and intraday giveback underscore high beta and thin float—position sizing matters.
