Guild Esports PLC (LSE:GILD, OTCQB:GULDF) CEO Jasmine Skee joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share an in-depth look at the company's impressive annual results. These figures paint a picture of extraordinary growth and strategic prowess. One of the most striking achievements is the impressive 44% increase in gross profit, catapulting it to a substantial £3.99 million. Alongside this, there has been a noteworthy reduction in losses, which now stand at £4.5 million. These financial metrics underscore Guild Esports' unwavering commitment to not only achieving profitability but also sustaining it. In addition to the improved financials, the company recorded record-breaking revenues of £5.53 million, a significant surge from the previous year's £4.4 million. This robust revenue increase sends a clear signal that Guild Esports is poised for expansion and is well-prepared for future scaling endeavors. Guild Studios, introduced just last year, has emerged as a resounding success story. The venture has effectively collaborated with renowned brands such as Samsung Mobile and Sky Glass, firmly establishing Guild's position as an activation agency of choice within the industry. Moreover, Guild Esports has expanded its sponsorship portfolio with the addition of new partners, including a substantial technical partnership with Humble. The company has witnessed a remarkable 20% increase in sponsorship and has welcomed six new collaborators, further solidifying its thriving presence in the eSports sector. Skee highlighted the strategic emphasis placed on emerging platforms like TikTok. This strategic focus yielded impressive results, doubling viewership figures to a remarkable 145 million impressions and fueling significant growth in channel visits. As the company looks ahead to 2024, Guild Esports maintains high expectations for sustained revenue growth. The commitment to cultivating strong partnerships remains unwavering, and the company is actively exploring opportunities in the MENA region, aligning its strategies with the momentum gained in 2023. #proactiveinvestors #guildesportsplc #lse #gild #otcqb #guildf #JasmineSkee #eSportsNews #GamingIndustry #AnnualResults #StrategicPartnerships #RecordRevenues #TikTokStrategy #GamingCommunity #CSGO #FortniteGaming #SimRacing #eSportsWorldCup #HumblePartnership #SkyBroadband #GamingTrends #BrandCollaborations #GamingCenter #TechPartnerships #GenZAudience #MENAExpansion #FutureofeSports #RevenueGrowth #GamingInnovation #2024Outlook #investing #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Good morning from London where the markets are looking very steady indeed owing to it being Independence Day in the USA. Here in the good old UK though Sainsbury's shares have dropped a little this morning in response to a first-quarter update. The grocer is sticking to its full-year guidance and says food price inflation is showing signs of easing off. Airlines Wizz and Ryanair saw a positive start to Tuesday meanwhile, as both reported a jump in passenger figures for June, with the latter setting a new monthly record of 17.4mln. In housing, the boffins over at JP Morgan are saying this morning that homebuilders need to be wary of risk in the current slow market. Centrica shares look to have shrugged off warnings to the sector over paying out dividends, as regulator Ofgem looks to prevent further energy company collapses. Elsewhere, Yahoo is reportedly set to launch a multi-billion-dollar IPO, marking a return to public markets after being spun out of Verizon in 2021. And in small caps, Guild Esports shares jumped after announcing it would take part in the 2023 F4 Esports Championship. #ProactiveInvestors #FTSE100 #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Derek Lew of Blue Star Capital #BLU interviews Meinhard Benn, CEO of Satoshi Pay about Pendulum, its smart contract network dedicated to connecting fiat payment networks to decentralised finance (DeFi) networks. Background to the private presale of Pendulum's PEN token Pendulum is an open-source blockchain built on the stable and existing Substrate framework that aims to establish the missing link between fiat and the DeFi ecosystems through a sophisticated smart contract network. It is intended that Pendulum will connect DeFi to the foreign exchange market, building automated market makers (AMMs) to introduce scalable liquidity pools for fiat currencies, and create yield earning opportunities for fiat token holders. SatoshiPay started the development of Pendulum in April 2021 and later, in May 2021, received an R&D grant from the Stellar Development Foundation to advance its development. The first prototype of Pendulum, which features a bridge to Stellar and AMM, similar to that found in Uniswap, is now available on SatoshiPay's internal Pendulum testnet. SatoshiPay expects that the next stages of development for Pendulum will include a public testnet and mainnet, the introduction of sophisticated smart contracts to the Stellar network while simultaneously adding a set of robust fiat assets to the Polkadot/Kusama ecosystem. Pendulum has raised $5 million for its further development by the private sale of PEN tokens. The directors of the Company have been advised that the funding allows for SatoshiPay to be contractually retained to continue to develop Pendulum. About Blue Star Capital Blue Star is an investing company with a focus on new technologies. Blue Star's investments include SatoshiPay Limited, a payments business using blockchain technology; 6 early-stage to mid-level esports companies, including Guild eSports plc, a global eSports business headquartered in London whose lead investor is David Beckham and Dynasty eSports Pte Ltd., an eSports platform with a mission to become the largest eSports franchise in Asia; Leaf Mobile Inc., a mobile leading free-to-play mobile games group; NFT Investments plc, a company that engages, partners, incubates and develops non-fungible tokens; and Sthaler Limited, an identity and payments technology business which enables a consumer to identify themselves and pay using just their finger.

Belfast Storm have started life in the NLC, the Northern League of Legends Championship, and it's one that Ben has been keeping a close eye on. F1 Esports launches the new season in October, with four rounds being held at Gfinity in London. The drivers battle on 12 tracks to determine who will win this year's driver and team championships. Can Red Bull make it three-in-a-row. Trev is a busy man within the esports world and was part of the recently announced J1 Esports team formed at Norwich City. Get the inside track on the reasons behind that launch from the man himself. EA has been reportedly looking into dropping the FIFA name from their title - will it actually happen? and how will Goals.co and Striker coming in to make it 4 major football titles change the landscape? And on the FIFA front, we discussed Hashtag United receiving a record fee for the transfer of their FIFA player, Tom Leese, to ExCel Esports. Is it going to start a trend or is it a one off? To finish off we carried on the football theme by discussing Finn Harps new partnership deal with David Beckham-backed Guild Esports. It's a move that could be smart and benefit both parties.

Have money make money? Transcript 1. Athletes and the biggest names in Hollywood love investing in women’s sports, especially the NWSL (National Women’s Soccer League). Angel City FC has the most notable investors, including Jennifer Garner, Natalie Portman, Eva Longoria and athletes Mia Hamm, Serena Williams, Candace Parker and her daughter Lailaa and tennis icon and activist Billie Jean King. Not to be outdone, NHL (National Hockey League) superstar Alex Ovechkin (Washington Spirit) and the No. 2 tennis player in the world (and the highest-paid female athlete ever) Naomi Osaka, is now an owner of North Carolina Courage. 2. The hot ticket item (after an NWSL team) is buying a stake in a NASCAR (National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing) team. Both Michael Jordan and Mr. Worldwide himself, Pitbull, became owners of a NASCAR team before this year’s season started. Jordan’s team is a new team led by the only Black driver in the pro circuit of NASCAR, Bubba Wallace. The car features Jordan’s longtime jersey number No. 23. Pitbull is the co-owner of the Trackhouse Racing Team, which has the No. 99 car of Daniel Suarez. 3. Joining Justin Timberlake as an NBA (National Basketball Association) owner are the NFL’s (National Football League) Larry Fitzgerald (Phoenix Suns) and Aaron Rodgers (Milwaukee Bucks). Former NBA players Shaquille O’Neal (Sacramento Kings) and Dwyane Wade (Utah Jazz) have diversified their assets with team ownership. 4. One sport that you might not think of is Esports. The sport is the fastest growing sport globally, with viewers watching more than 2.1 billion hours of Esports videos worldwide. You may have heard of cities across the country building dedicated Esports arenas, and that’s why. David Beckham, also the owner of Inter Miami CF (MLS), launched Guild Esports in 2020. The company has already gone public on the London Stock Exchange. He joins the long list of athlete investors in Esports, including Steph Curry (Team SoloMid), Alex Rodriguez (NRG Esports), Michael Jordan (aXiomatic), Michael Strahan (NRG Esports) and Mike Tyson (Team Fade 2 Karma). 5. LeBron James has his hands in everything and it all seems to be turning to gold with his stake in Liverpool FC, who won the UEFA Championship in 2019. Also looking for a return on their investment is the NBA’s Kevin Durant, an owner of the Philadelphia Union (MLS – Major League Soccer).
