The New Hampshire Lottery has set a new revenue record in Fiscal Year 2025, generating nearly $209 million for public education in the state. This figure represents an increase of about $1.6 million from the previous year’s record contribution of $207.3 million.

According to unaudited data, sports wagering was a significant contributor, with more than 27 million bets placed and a total handle of $815 million. This activity generated $40 million in revenue for public education, marking a new high for the state. Charitable gaming also saw growth, providing $90.4 million to local charities and almost $47.7 million to support public education—both representing record amounts.

Charlie McIntyre, Executive Director of the New Hampshire Lottery, commented on the achievement: “There is no better feeling than knowing we have once again delivered an all-time high in revenue to New Hampshire public education. That is our goal every single day, to drive maximum revenue in support of the students, teachers and schools of this state,” he said.

“This latest record-breaking accomplishment is a testament to the entire New Hampshire Lottery staff – our team strives to bring innovative, engaging offerings to our players across all our channels, appealing to our dedicated players, while also reaching new audiences. With sales momentum continuing to build and an array of new games and offerings on tap, we look forward to building on our success this year.”
