TORONTO / Jan 31, 2024 / Business Wire / Tokens.com Corp. (Cboe Canada: COIN)(Frankfurt Stock Exchange: 76M) (OTCQB US: SMURF) (“Tokens.com” or the “Company”), a web3 technology company that owns an inventory of cryptocurrencies, reports its financial results for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023 (“FY2023”). All dollar figures are in United States dollars (“USD”), unless otherwise stated.
Strategic Review Update:
On November 8th, 2023, the Company announced that it had commenced a strategic review. The Company is also exploring acquisitions, sales of its domain names and the sale of its operating businesses and digital assets. As part of this strategic process to enhance shareholder value, on January 29, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell the assets of Metaverse Group and Hulk Labs to StoryFire Inc. (“StoryFire”), which is primarily a transfer of its workforce and contractors. All capital within Metaverse Group will remain at Tokens.com.
Tokens.com will receive a consideration of $4 million for the sale that consists of a 15.3% ownership of StoryFire and $500,000 of its native Blaze cryptocurrency token. The transaction is expected to close on March 1, 2024.
Metaverse Group and Hulk Labs revenue was not forecasted to exceed operating costs and reach profitability for several years. In addition, the funding required by these businesses would require Tokens.com to carry significant cash flow losses. To finance these operations, the Company would need to sell some or all of its cryptocurrency inventory or look to raise dilutive new equity capital. After careful review of all alternatives, management and the board made the decision to de-risk Tokens.com by selling the assets of Metaverse Group and Hulk Labs to a buyer that has a strategic fit and capital to bring the businesses to profitability faster. Tokens.com retains the upside in the combined businesses through our 15.3% equity participation. Tokens.com also is in a position to retain its cryptocurrencies without the requirement to fund the other businesses. Management believes the sale of the businesses results in a win-win scenario and has eliminated an estimated $1.5M of overhead annually. Removing the overhead associated with these assets gives the company additional flexibility in pursuing another acquisition or as an acquisition target as a leaner structure.
Subsequent to the closing of the StoryFire transaction on March 1st, 2024, Tokens.com’s key assets will be its cryptocurrency inventory, cash, a 15.3% ownership in StoryFire, as well as a portfolio of domain names. Operating overhead will be significantly lower, making operations more efficient.
