Notes
GGR is the sports gaming workbook's retail "Revenue" column. Adjusted revenue is the workbook's "Taxable Revenue" for retail operators. Tax paid is an estimate, 10% (20% from July 2023) of the workbook's taxable revenue, since Ohio publishes no monthly tax figure. The Casino Control Commission prints taxable revenue; the Department of Taxation reports sports gaming tax only as fiscal-year totals. Summed over the receipt months each fiscal year's returns cover, the estimate is within 1% of those totals ($159.9M vs $159.5M for FY2024, $180.8M vs $181.8M for FY2025).
