Hammer Technology Holdings (OTC:HMMR) Releases Q1 Earnings: Here Are Key Details

TopNewsGuide - Market News & Commentary

A sector that is almost always going to be on the radar of many investors is the technology sector, and for good reason too, given the possibilities of making a strong return in the long term. These are companies that are always intent on making innovative products that can disrupt established markets or create markets of their own. A company that could be of interest at this point is Hammer Technology Holdings (OTCMKTS:HMMR), which is involved in making investments in the future of technology. The company decided to widen its business strategy so as to focus on the innovative technology space, which has been evolving at a remarkable pace. To that end, Hammer Technology Holdings restructured the company in a way so as to be in a position to accommodate a range of new verticals. One of the strategies of the company is known as the ‘Everything Wireless’ strategy, which is involved with providing fixed high-speed wireless service to small businesses and residences. However, that is not all. The company has also made a move into the rapidly growing financial technology space. Earlier on in the week on February 13, HMMR announced its financial results for the fiscal year that had ended on July 31, 2022, and also the first fiscal quarter that ended on October 31, 2022. In the fiscal year that ended on July 31, 2022 HMMR had managed to bring in revenues of as much as $2,602,115 and that reflected a year-on-year rise to the tune of as much as 18.32%. The healthy rise in revenues had been brought about by the strong performance which had been delivered by the company’s OTT or over-the-top business segment. The revenues generated in the first quarter ended on October 31, 2022, stood at $799,699 and that reflected a year-on-year rise of 27.27%. Hammer Technology Holdings recorded an operating loss of $547,225 in the fiscal year and that was primarily due to the expenses incurred for setting up the financial technology business. The acquisition of HammerPay (USA) Ltd had also been a factor in the same. In the quarter that ended on October 31, 2022, the company recorded an operating loss of $142,173 and the reason behind the loss was the same. "We continued to improve our operations in the telecommunications business segment as we develop a diversified portfolio," said Erik Levitt, Hammer's Principal Financial Officer and CEO of the telecommunications business segment. In this context, it should be pointed out that back on October 19, 2022 the company had come into the news cycle after it announced that it had inked a letter of intent with regards to the acquisition of Mobile Finance Group Ltd, which operates under the brand name Wallet Factory. Mobile Finance Group is a digital finance services provider and is also involved in the enterprise-grade e-wallet space. The acquisition could go a long way in helping Hammer Technology Holdings in executing its financial technology strategy. One of the solutions offered by Mobile Finance is the all-in-one wallet that can work on both B2B and B2C platforms.

International Star Inc (OTC:ILST) Completes Acquisition of Budding Equity: What Next?

TopNewsGuide - Market News & Commentary

Companies that come under new management can often turn into remarkable turnaround stories and hence, investors are often keen on those. This brings us to the subject of International Star Inc. (OTCMKTS:ILST), which had mainly been involved with mineral property interests. In June of 2022, ILST Holdco LLC had completed the acquisition of a controlling interest in the company, and the company came under new management. Under the control of the new management, International Star is seeking to create a thriving and financially strong business that could consistently create value for shareholders. The thrust of the strategy is to grow revenues internally and at the same time, work on acquisitions that are synergistic in nature. The acquisitions that International Star is generally interested in are sustainable businesses with free cash flow. As it happens, the company was in the news this month after it completed the acquisition of Budding Equity Inc. The announcement with regards to the completion of the acquisition was made by the company back on February 14, 2023. Budding Equity is a modern company that mainly works with celebrities and film studious to monetize their intellectual property. The monetization is done in the worldwide cannabis industry. This acquisition was also part of the company’s acquisition strategy that had been put in place. It had been reported back in August 2022 that the two companies had entered into an agreement. There is more to the deal that ought to be noted. As per the provisions of the agreement signed at the time, International Star provided funds to Budding Equity for its working capital needs related to boosting its inventory. Additionally, International Star had also been granted an option to complete the acquisition within 12 months. Up until now, the total loan drawdown from International Star to Budding Equity was $375,000 and that had led to the issuance of an equity stake of 7.5% in Budding Equity to International Star. Earlier on in the month, International Star decided to exercise the option to acquire the entirety of Budding Equity and issued a note to that effect to the company’s shareholders. Following the completion of the transaction, Budding Equity commanded a valuation of $1,700,000. That being said, the decision to exercise the option must not have come as a surprise to the company’s shareholders considering the fact that back on October 25 last year International Star had made an announcement to that effect. At the time, the company had announced that it was in the concluding stages of exercising the option to complete the purchase of 100% of the Budding Equity outstanding shares. International Star also announced that it had also issued a notice to the shareholders of Budding Equity with regard to its intentions to complete the acquisition. Another announcement made by the company at that same time was related to the election of Avi Minkowitz to the board of directors of International Star. He had been elected to the board back on October 20, 2022. Disclaimers: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides investors a safe harbor in regard to forward-looking statements.

PTOP Announces Pink Current Status! PTOP Also Announces Payment Completed To Accountants For Q1 Financial Statements To Be Completed Soon!

Peer to Peer Network

McapMediaWire -- Peer To Peer Network a.k.a MobiCard Inc. (OTC: PTOP ) is proud to announce it has obtained the coveted “Pink Current Status” from the OTC Markets and has also made payment to Blue Chip Accounting to have 1 st quarter financials completed soon. “We fell out of compliance for Pink Current only because the attorney letter had not been submitted after we submitted our fiscal year-end financial reports. When I found out, I notified our attorney and he promptly sent in the attorney letter to cover the financial periods for the annual report required. It took OTC markets 3-5 business days from the time they received the attorney letter to put us back to “Pink Current Status”. I assume this will open the gates back up to new investors who otherwise would not be able to buy the stock,” commented Chairman & CEO Joshua Sodaitis. “I remain steadfast in adhering to the proper reporting requirements. We paid the accountants for our Q1 financials and should have them completed and posted to OTC Markets by the end of February. I also remain committed in wiping off debt from the balance sheet,” elaborated CEO Sodaitis. OTC Markets revised their Pink Current and Pink Limited guidelines on the information that’s required by companies to qualify for each, which are publicly available on the otcmarkets.com website. According to the OTC Markets Group website: “ The Pink Limited tier, and the information required to be qualified as Pink Limited is more basic — what you need under Rule 15c2-11. Pink Current goes above that. In order to meet those guidelines, you’re going to need to have specific financial information — more than the Pink Limited guidelines. Both will allow a security to be quoted on an ongoing basis, but the Pink Current guidelines are more stringent. And with respect to the impact of being on one tier versus the other, brokers that are quoting those securities may place restrictions on the Pink Limited tier that they do not place on Pink Current. Companies that trade on our Market are subject to the Blue Sky laws in the 50 states and four territories. That also is impacted depending on whether or not you are Current or Limited. As an example, for companies that come in Current that are making their information available to us, you would gain a state like Illinois. It will have an impact not just on a broker’s potential restrictions on trading Limited versus Current, but also on the Blue Sky status of individual states.” Quote directly from OTC Markets: Rule 15c2-11 Amendments FAQs - OTC Markets Blog. This Pink Current Status for PTOP means that entire new states like Illinois (as used in the OTC Markets example above) amongst others, will now have access to buying shares of PTOP in the open market. This is an obvious benefit to shareholders and the company. If you are curious to see the balance sheet, financial disclosure documents, or other financial reports we encourage you to view them on the OTC Markets group website. “Next week I will be putting out some more exciting news as I strive diligently to knock down the strategic objectives I laid out in the Annual Letter To Shareholders. I believe this will finally be PTOP’s year. Together with the help of shareholders we can make our strategic goals a reality. I would say this is the BEST time to become a shareholder of PTOP,” concluded Chairman & CEO Joshua Sodaitis.
