During the seven-month period of the sales process, virtually all of our resources were dedicated to facilitating the sale process and all operating budgets were suspended, including sales and marketing budgets for MARKET.live, in order to preserve cash and minimize reliance on the capital markets until the asset sale process was complete. However, upon conclusion of the sales process at the end of June 2023, we completed development work on new MARKET.live capability that facilitates a deeper integration into certain social media platforms that could expose MARKET.live shoppable programming to billions of potential viewers/purchasers . Currently in use by certain creators in beta, this new integration allows viewers of MARKET.live content on this social media platform to purchase MARKET.live products on and through the social media platform, eliminating friction from the sale process. This feature is expected to formally launch broadly later this summer. In addition, we restructured our creator program for re-launch as a subscription-based drop ship program, which is also expected to formally launch this summer.

Moreover, we are actively pursuing an acquisition. On June 12, 2023, our Board approved the execution of a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) to acquire certain assets of an ecommerce business (the “Target”) for our MARKET.live, livestream shopping platform (the “Acquisition”). The Target’s unaudited financial statements indicate that for the year-ended December 31, 2022, the Target generated transactions totaling approximately $9.5M in gross merchandise value (“GMV”) and was cash-flow positive. It was represented that the GMV was generated by the Target’s approximately 70,000 current active subscribers, each of whom receive daily auto-generated communications from the Target about the preferred brands and products the subscribers selected at sign-up, available for sale each day. Subject to the successful completion of the Acquisition, we intend to incorporate the Target’s technology and operations into MARKET.live, so that the transactions that comprise the Target’s GMV will be facilitated on and through our MARKET.live platform, potentially at higher margins. Potential corollary benefits of the transaction include the exposure of our MARKET.live shoppable entertainment programming to the Target’s 70,000 subscribers, possibly driving additional sales, among other benefits. If completed, consideration for the proposed Acquisition, will be a combination of cash and stock, structured as a seller note payable over 24 months; and the payments are subject to actual cash receipts as represented by the seller.
