Golden Matrix Reports Third Quarter 2018 Sales of $345,148 vs. $30,000 in Q3 2017


LAS VEGAS, June 18, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Golden Matrix Group Inc. (OTCPK:GMGI), a developer and marketer of social gaming platforms, today announced that for the third quarter ended April 30, 2018, the company had sales of $345,148, derived primarily from licensing fees received from social gaming operators located in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region. This represents more than a ten-fold improvement on sales of $30,000 in the comparable third quarter of 2017.

For the third quarter of 2018, the company reported a net loss of $35,248, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared with net income of $200,228, or $0.00 per diluted share, in the like year-ago quarter.

Golden Matrix CEO, Anthony Goodman, noted that the income (loss) reported in Q3 ’18 was adversely impacted by two noncash charges related to the acquisition of proprietary gaming technology by the Company - along with a licensing and distribution agreement to monetize its deployment. These charges were an amortization expense of $68,126 related to stock options granted in the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan and G&A related-party expenses of $229,800 for stock issued to acquire the proprietary technology. The charges are non-recurring and not expected to impact operating results of subsequent quarters.

Mr. Goodman noted that sales generated in Q3 ’18 are primarily a result of only two months of activities from the newly acquired technology. “We are confident that the current and future quarters will be generating solid, recurring monthly sales and positive cash flow, and we expect our ongoing marketing efforts to add more social gaming operators and contribute to profitable operating results.”

The CEO added that net income of $200,228 in Q3 2017 – on sales of only $30,000 – resulted from the non-cash adjustment of $270,448 related to the fair value change of derivative liability. The adjustment in Q3’18, by comparison, was only $15,824.

As previously reported, Golden Matrix entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement on February 28, 2018 to acquire the unique gaming technology, along with certain intellectual property and know-how, from Luxor Capital LLC; and, on March 1, 2018, the company entered into a definitive license and distribution agreement with Articulate Pty Ltd. Both Luxor Capital LLC and Articulate Pty Ltd are affiliates of Mr. Goodman.

For the nine months ended April 30, 2018, Golden Matrix reported $405,148 in total sales and a net loss of $408,807, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared with $90,000 in total sales and net income of $1,625,792, or $0.05 per diluted share, during the comparable year-ago period. Last year’s positive nine-month income resulted primarily from a gain of $806,867 on the extinguishment of debt and $1,414,761 related to the fair value change of derivative liability.

On June 7, 2018, the Company entered into subscription agreement with certain individual investors in which the Company sold 300,000,000 shares of restricted common stock, and received non-brokered gross proceeds of $120,000.
