August 2025 Sales: The lottery had sales of $607.5 million in August 2025, a 4% increase over the previous year, also boosted by strong Powerball sales. Powerball Contribution: In early September 2025, a large Powerball jackpot contributed over $75 million to New York, with $64 million going to public schools and $11 million to lottery retailers.
