Golden Matrix Reports 2nd Quarter Financial Results with Revenues of $8,482,743 and 15th Consecutive Quarter of Profitability

Published

on

LAS VEGAS, June 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via InvestorWire – Golden Matrix Group Inc. (NASDAQ:GMGI), a developer and licensor of online gaming platforms, systems and gaming content, today reports financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2022.

  • Q2 revenues of $8,482,743**, an increase of 221% on revenues of $2,639,511 in the comparable year-ago quarter.
  • Q2 net income attributable to GMGI of $586,984 versus $127,986 in the comparable year-ago quarter.
  • Revenues of $17,359,848** in the first six months of this fiscal year, an increase of 278% on revenues of $4,590,917 in the comparable year-ago period.
  • Net income attributable to GMGI of $936,363 in the first six months versus $180,144 in the comparable year-ago period.
  • Cash and cash equivalents of $15,811,213** and total assets of $33,501,019** as of April 30, 2022.
  • Total liabilities of $4,617,526** – $4,496,214** current; $121,312** non-current as of April 30, 2022.
  • Shareholders’ equity of GMGI increased to $25,999,736, up from $18,928,109 on Oct. 31, 2021.

** The revenues, cash-on-hand, total assets, and total liabilities (including both current and non-current) referenced in this press release include the 20% held in RKingsCompetitions Ltd by minority interests. More detailed information on minority interest factors can be found in our most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The company also noted it has recorded 15 consecutive quarters of profitability.

The significant increase in revenues of this fiscal quarter over revenues recorded in the comparable year-ago quarter resulted primarily from a 28% increase in GMGI’s traditional B2B segment, in addition to strong revenue contributions from UK-based RKings, which was responsible for 60% of total revenues in the quarter. There were no contributions from UK-based RKings in the prior year comparable periods, as GMGI had acquired an 80% controlling ownership interest in RKings at the beginning of the current fiscal year.

During the three months ended April 30, 2022, and 2021, general and administrative (G&A) expenses were $1,380,706 and $327,723, respectively. The increase was due primarily to $884,027 in G&A expenses from the RKings B2C segment, which included payroll costs and bank charges for transaction fees. The G&A expenses from GMGI’s traditional B2B segment also increased due to higher costs in marketing fees, lease expenses and payroll.

“We are pleased with the financial results of our second quarter as a company with both B2B and B2C verticals,” said Golden Matrix CEO Brian Goodman. “During the quarter we implemented upgraded technology and stronger accounting controls to improve cash flow and profitability at RKings. With the Tournament Platform’s added features and functionality, we expect steady increases in both the monthly number of skill tournaments and participants; and, because this robust platform gives RKings’ tournament players immediate access to a growing number of exciting prize competitions, we expect this third quarter and future quarters to generate increasing revenues and profits.

“The acquisition of RKings has given us entry into a well-established B2C vertical in a new market outside of the Asia Pacific (APAC) region. With its highly popular prize offerings coupled with nominal player acquisition costs, the RKings’ Tournament Platform is highly scalable; and we plan to introduce it into additional regulated markets worldwide, beginning with Mexico in the current quarter.”

Brian Goodman concluded, “We enter the remainder of this fiscal year with two robust operating divisions and a strong balance sheet. As stated previously, we continue to evaluate new opportunities in both the B2B and B2C spaces that will further accelerate GMGI’s overall revenue growth and – in accordance with our acquisition strategy – are always accretive to earnings.”

Golden Matrix Reports 2nd Quarter Financial Results with Revenues of $8,482,743 and 15th Consecutive Quarter of Profitability

Published

on

LAS VEGAS, June 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via InvestorWire – Golden Matrix Group Inc. (NASDAQ:GMGI), a developer and licensor of online gaming platforms, systems and gaming content, today reports financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2022.

  • Q2 revenues of $8,482,743**, an increase of 221% on revenues of $2,639,511 in the comparable year-ago quarter.
  • Q2 net income attributable to GMGI of $586,984 versus $127,986 in the comparable year-ago quarter.
  • Revenues of $17,359,848** in the first six months of this fiscal year, an increase of 278% on revenues of $4,590,917 in the comparable year-ago period.
  • Net income attributable to GMGI of $936,363 in the first six months versus $180,144 in the comparable year-ago period.
  • Cash and cash equivalents of $15,811,213** and total assets of $33,501,019** as of April 30, 2022.
  • Total liabilities of $4,617,526** – $4,496,214** current; $121,312** non-current as of April 30, 2022.
  • Shareholders’ equity of GMGI increased to $25,999,736, up from $18,928,109 on Oct. 31, 2021.

** The revenues, cash-on-hand, total assets, and total liabilities (including both current and non-current) referenced in this press release include the 20% held in RKingsCompetitions Ltd by minority interests. More detailed information on minority interest factors can be found in our most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The company also noted it has recorded 15 consecutive quarters of profitability.

The significant increase in revenues of this fiscal quarter over revenues recorded in the comparable year-ago quarter resulted primarily from a 28% increase in GMGI’s traditional B2B segment, in addition to strong revenue contributions from UK-based RKings, which was responsible for 60% of total revenues in the quarter. There were no contributions from UK-based RKings in the prior year comparable periods, as GMGI had acquired an 80% controlling ownership interest in RKings at the beginning of the current fiscal year.

During the three months ended April 30, 2022, and 2021, general and administrative (G&A) expenses were $1,380,706 and $327,723, respectively. The increase was due primarily to $884,027 in G&A expenses from the RKings B2C segment, which included payroll costs and bank charges for transaction fees. The G&A expenses from GMGI’s traditional B2B segment also increased due to higher costs in marketing fees, lease expenses and payroll.

“We are pleased with the financial results of our second quarter as a company with both B2B and B2C verticals,” said Golden Matrix CEO Brian Goodman. “During the quarter we implemented upgraded technology and stronger accounting controls to improve cash flow and profitability at RKings. With the Tournament Platform’s added features and functionality, we expect steady increases in both the monthly number of skill tournaments and participants; and, because this robust platform gives RKings’ tournament players immediate access to a growing number of exciting prize competitions, we expect this third quarter and future quarters to generate increasing revenues and profits.

“The acquisition of RKings has given us entry into a well-established B2C vertical in a new market outside of the Asia Pacific (APAC) region. With its highly popular prize offerings coupled with nominal player acquisition costs, the RKings’ Tournament Platform is highly scalable; and we plan to introduce it into additional regulated markets worldwide, beginning with Mexico in the current quarter.”

Brian Goodman concluded, “We enter the remainder of this fiscal year with two robust operating divisions and a strong balance sheet. As stated previously, we continue to evaluate new opportunities in both the B2B and B2C spaces that will further accelerate GMGI’s overall revenue growth and – in accordance with our acquisition strategy – are always accretive to earnings.”
