ThreeD Capital Inc. $IDK.ca $IDKFF Releases Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 $PKK.ca $PKKFF $MTRX.ca $RACMF

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 5:24 PM on Monday, November 23rd, 2020

  • As at September 30, 2020, the Company had cash, investments and digital assets of $13.9 million.

TORONTO, Nov. 23, 2020 – ThreeD Capital Inc. (“ThreeD” or the “Company”) (CSE:IDK / OTCQB:IDKFF) a Canadian based venture capital firm that invests in disruptive companies and promising junior resources companies, is pleased to announce its results as at and for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

As at September 30, 2020, the Company had cash, investments and digital assets of $13.9 million.

As at September 30, 2020, net asset value per share was $0.41 as compared to $0.41 as at June 30, 2020. (See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” elsewhere)

Financial Highlights for the three months ending September 30, 2020 with comparatives:

Sheldon Inwentash, Chairman and CEO stated, “Over the past 18 months we have been quietly but deliberately building our portfolio with very early-stage investments in highly prospective companies in industries including fintech, artificial intelligence, smart buildings, blockchain, and precious metals. We are now just starting to see the early phase returns on many of these strategic investments and have reason to believe in our accelerating growth in 2021.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

This press release contains references to “net asset value per share” (basic and diluted) (“NAV”) which is a non-GAAP financial measure. NAV is calculated as the value of total assets less the value of total liabilities divided by the total number of common shares outstanding as at a specific date. NAV (diluted) is calculated as total assets less total liabilities divided by the total number of common shares of the Company outstanding as at a specific date, calculated based upon the assumption that all outstanding securities of the Company that are convertible into or exercisable for common shares have been converted or exercised. The term NAV does not have any standardized meaning according to GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. There is no comparable GAAP financial measure presented in ThreeD’s consolidated financial statements and thus no applicable quantitative reconciliation for such non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes that the measure provides information useful to its shareholders in understanding our performance, and may assist in the evaluation of the Company’s business relative to that of its peers.

VIDEO – ThreeD Capital $IDK.ca $IDKFF Discusses Big Picture, Some Portfolio Investments, Favourite Sectors … And Why 2021 Is “The Year To Be All In” $PKK.ca $PKKFF $MTRX.ca $RACMF

ThreeD Capital (IDK:CSE / IDKFF:OTCQB) prides itself on discovering great companies before everyone else … and it casts a wide net to find the best of the best ranging from precious metals companies to completely disruptive companies.  Moreover, IDK isn’t afraid to invest and be patient in both public and private companies.  

As such, it’s like and ETF for ground floor investments that small cap investors would either be unable to find (private) or unable to participate in (early round accredited investors)  

It is able to do all this and do it well under the leadership of one of the greatest investors in Canadian history – Sheldon Inwentash, the Founder, Chairman and CEO of IDK. Inwentash’s track record of success speaks for itself, including successful exits in the hundreds of millions and even billions in previous years.  His last company commanded a market cap north of $1 Billion and now he’s looking to create another success out of IDK.    

Will he do it?  He’s off to a good start so far by quietly making investments over the past couple of years that are now starting to pay off.  In this interview Inwentash discusses:

  • His investment philosophy
  • A couple of his recent investments in Peak Fintech (PKK:CSE) and Loop Insights (MTRX:TSXV)
  • Why he’s investing heavily in gold juniors
  • Why he’s investing heavily in blockchain companies + their tokens

Best of all, after one hell of a ride for the financial markets in 2020, Inwentash talks about why 2021 “is the year to be all in”  

Watch this great interview … because when a legendary financier speaks, every small cap investor should be listening.

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:30 PM on Sunday, November 8th, 2020

The global online gambling market could potentially hit $1 TRILLION by the end of this decade. That isn’t a typo and the reasons are pretty clear – more jurisdictions are legalizing online gambling to get their hands on the tax revenue and the remaining 40% of people on the planet without internet access are going to get it.  

Until recently, however, small-cap investors did not have a company that could provide them ground floor exposure to this massive market and its growth over the next 10 years.  The industry was dominated by the big traditional gambling companies, who focus heavily on old fashioned gambling. 

That all changes with FansUnite, the small cap iGaming super company that goes beyond simple gambling and attacks both sides of the iGaming market by offering both B2C and B2B gambling platforms. 

More than just lip service, the formation of this iGaming super company became a reality this summer when FansUnite acquired Askott Entertainment recently, the highlights of which are as follows:  

  • $27,000,000 Acquisition
  • Over $350,000,000 In Total Bets
  • Over 300,000 Registered Users
  • Strong Emphasis On Esports
  • Over 6,000 Casino Games Onto Platform
  • $5,000,000 Financing In Support Of The Acquisition
  • World Renowned Team

…. And now FANS is already setting monthly records.  
If that was all FANS had to say, this would already be a big announcement … but watch this interview to hear how fast they are expanding globally, as well as, how FANS is positioned for a proposed change to Canadian gambling laws that could become a massive opportunity for this Canadian gambling and gaming company.

If you are looking for a disruptive technology company that is well positioned to carve out its share of the massive online gambling world, then you need to watch or listen to this interview with FANS CEO, Scott Burton.

  • UK Sportsbook set company records with triple-digit growth in multiple areas, led by a 433% increase in overall revenue compared to October 2019 and a total Gross win of $602K CAD during the month
  • Much of the growth was attributed to the unveiling of McBookie’s live casino games and increased activity in sports betting which resulted in $7.3M in total betting volume being placed during the month

Vancouver, British Columbia and Dundee, Scotland–(November 5, 2020) – FansUnite Entertainment Inc. (CSE: FANS) (OTC Pink: FUNFF) (“FansUnite” or the “Company”), a technology company providing leading online gaming solutions, is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary McBookie Ltd (“McBookie”) closed out October with the highest increase in monthly revenue and gross margin in the company’s 10-year history.

The UK Sportsbook set company records with triple-digit growth in multiple areas, led by a 433% increase in overall revenue compared to October 2019 and a total Gross win of $602K CAD during the month. Much of the growth was attributed to the unveiling of McBookie’s live casino games and increased activity in sports betting which resulted in $7.3M in total betting volume being placed during the month.

Casino Segment

McBookie’s new Live Casino product, encompassing multiple tables and variations of blackjack, roulette and baccarat, all with live real dealers, garnered substantial interest from online bettors.

During the month:

  • Betting volume (“Turnover”) was $5.1M CAD, an increase of 460% as compared to October 2019.
  • Gross Win was $197K CAD an increase of 679% as compared to October 2019.

Sports Segment

McBookie added new features, including ‘bet builder’, which enables online bettors to fully customize and build their bets across any number of markets, and instantly receive a price on their desired wager. The user-friendly feature combined with a full slate of English soccer fixtures and the Scottish National Soccer Team’s presence in the prestigious UEFA European Championship qualifiers, helped propel the company to new financial heights.

During the month:

  • Betting volume (“Turnover”) was $2.2M CAD, an increase of 188% as compared to October 2019.
  • Gross Win was $405K CAD, an increase of 363% as compared to October 2019.

“Despite the global pandemic, McBookie had a record-breaking month of growth in October and demonstrated how seasoned operators can not only pivot their business during challenging times but still produce results that propel their business to new heights,” said Scott Burton, CEO of FansUnite Entertainment. “With sports now starting to come back and new products in their casino offering, we have full faith that McBookie will establish themselves as the preeminent online betting platform in Scotland and expand their footprint throughout the highly sought after UK gambling industry.”

“We are very encouraged with the continued growth of the McBookie platform and continue to add new features to provide our customers with innovative solutions that will create a unique experience for them,” said Paul Petrie, founder and Director of McBookie. “With Serbia playing against Scotland in the European Championship Soccer Qualifiers, the US Masters beginning in two weeks and the Scottish Cup Final coming up in the next few months, sports are very much back in business and should see an increase in betting volume on our platform.”
