    Disappointing quarter. The company reported fiscal second quarter end Dec. 2021 net revenue of $14.5 million, which missed our mark by a significant 30%. Our Q2 revenue estimate was $20.8 million. Adj. EBITDA loss was $6.8 million, nearly double our loss estimate of $3.45 million.

    A convergence of negative factors.  The first quarter-over-quarter revenue decline in more than a year was attributable to the following: the company ceased iGaming operations in the Netherlands due to a challenging regulatory environment, European sportsbooks had extremely low hold, and the Omicron variant caused the company to delay the launch of LANDuel and the opening of a Helix esports center …

    LA Times Article. Saturday, the L.A. Times published an article suggesting FAT Brands CEO Andrew Wiederhorn is being investigated for allegations of securities and wire fraud, money laundering, and attempted tax evasion. Deeper into the article, the newspaper notes that the “status of the investigation is unclear. No charges have been filed against any person or against FAT Brands…”.

    But FAT Brands Not Implicated.  A key takeaway from the article, in our opinion, is that the Company itself is not being investigated or implicated in any of the alleged wrongdoing at this time. CEO Wiederhorn’s attorneys are quoted as replying, “Mr. Wiederhorn categorically denies these allegations and at the appropriated time we will demonstrate that the government has its facts wrong.” …

Schwazze Closes Acquisition Of Colorado Cultivation Grower Brow 2, LLC

Research, News, and Market Data on Schwazze

 

Additional Indoor Grow Acquisition Increases Cultivation Capacity
Company Continues to Execute Growth Strategy Through Acquisitions

DENVER, Feb. 16, 2022 /CNW/ – Schwazze, (OTCQX: SHWZ) (“Schwazze” or the “Company”), announced today that it has closed the transaction to acquire the assets of Brow 2, LLC, located in Denver, Colorado.  The planned transaction includes a 37,000 square foot building and equipment designed for indoor cultivation. This transaction continues Schwazze’s aggressive expansion in Colorado and will enhance the Company’s cultivation capabilities, providing product directly to its dispensaries.  The consideration for the acquisition was $6.7 million and was paid in cash at closing.

“This is another step in building operational depth and capabilities in Colorado for Schwazze.  This acquisition will add a talented team of growers, high-quality indoor flower cultivation capacity, new strain genetics, and another profitable asset to our platform. The new facility will supply our growing network of dispensaries and customers with a broad assortment of high-quality indoor flower,” said Justin Dye, Schwazze’s CEO. 

Corporate Update
Late in 2021, Schwazze announced a transformational $95 million raise with institutional investors and individuals, allowing the Company to expedite its aggressive expansion plans and become a regional MSO with operations in Colorado and New Mexico.  The Company’s differentiated strategy is to build a leadership position in retail and operational depth within its operating areas.

Since December 2021, Schwazze has completed five acquisitions adding a total of 15 cannabis dispensaries, including Smoking Gun (December 2021); Drift (February 2022); Emerald Fields (February 2022); and the ten Greenleaf New Mexico dispensaries (February 2022). See Figure #1, outlining Schwazze’s dispensary assets.

Since July 2021, the Company has acquired a total of six cultivation facilities, two in Colorado including, SCG Holding LLC (July 2021); and Brow 2 LLC (February 2022) – and four licensed in New Mexico (February 2022).  The Greenleaf New Mexico acquisition also added a manufacturing asset, Elemental Kitchen & Laboratories, LLC to the Company’s Purplebee’s manufacturing plant in Colorado.

The Company continues to evaluate merger and acquisition transactions that meet our strategic screening criteria.

Michael Burrys Stock Market Holdings Filed Feb 14, 2022


Image Credit: Livewire


Michael Burry’s Public Investments in SPACs, Prisons, and Electric Hogs

 

NEW Filing: Michael Burry’s Stock Market Holdings (Filed May 16, 2022)

On February 14, Michael Burry filed his company’s holdings report with the SEC.  Relative to the previous quarter there was a little reshuffling of his positions. While many fund managers and successful investors such as Cathie Wood are talking about their ideas several times a week in the news, Burry is more quiet. A good way to understand Burry’s thinking and Scion Asset Management’s direction is to review changes to his 13F holdings. Or, hope for a rare
tweet.

Below we list all of Scion’s public company purchases and sales then provide information so you may drill down even deeper into Burry’s small and microcap holdings.  

 

 

Why it Matters

No one would disagree that Burry’s investment universe is broader than the average self-directed investor and even deeper than the average hedge fund manager.  With this in mind, out of the entire universe of publicly held corporations he could hold, there are only six that Burry’s portfolio owned at the end of the fourth quarter. One is a SPAC that is merging with an electric vehicle (EV) company. Two are small-cap holdings Scion had owned the previous quarter – Burry lightened up on one position and added to another. Three new large-cap purchases that round out the rest of the holdings span the defense, finance, and pharmaceutical industries.

Holdings Top to Bottom

Scion’s largest holding is Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY). BMY had a market value on filing date of $18.7M, Scion’s position represents .014% of the company. The large pharmaceutical company was added last quarter while holdings in drug retailer CVS were brought to zero during the quarter.

Insurance company Fidelity National Financial, Inc. (FNF) provides various insurance products in the US with a large focus on real estate-related products. This includes title insurance, escrow, and other title-related services. FNF also provides technology and transaction services to the real estate and mortgage industries. Plus, life insurance products including annuities. The company had a market value on the filing date
of $16.96M, Scion’s position represents .114% of the company.

General Dynamics Corporation (GD) is a large U.S. aerospace and defense contractor. It operates through four segments: Aerospace, Marine Systems, Combat Systems, and Technologies. GD had a market value on the filing date of $16.68, Scion’s position represents .287% of the company. Scion’s position in defense contractor Lockheed Martin (LMT) was brought to zero during the quarter.

On Dec. 13, 2021 Harley-Davidson, Inc. (HOG), announced that AEA-Bridges Impact Corp. (IMPX), a special purpose acquisition company or SPAC with a focus on sustainability, entered into a definitive business combination agreement under which they will combine with LiveWire. LiveWire which will trade under ticker LVW is Harley-Davidson’s electric motorcycle division. The deal will create a new publicly-traded company. Michael Burry added this SPAC to Scion’s holdings. As of year-end, Scion owned 2.50% of the special purpose company or $9.99M.

The GEO Group (GEO) is a correctional facility that specializes in the ownership, leasing, and management of correctional, detention, and reentry facilities. The market value of Scion’s position was $6.69 million at quarter-end, which represented 6.94% of the company’s market value. Burry rebalanced this position which was carried over from the previous quarter as he reduced his holdings by 26%.

CoreCivic (CXW) is a publicly owned prison system that was trading as a REIT up until January 2021, it now trades as a Regular C-Corporation. Scion took a position during the third quarter of last year and apparently added to it. Burry’s quarter-end $5.54M position represents .46% of the company. During the quarter Burry increased the share of the company his fund holds by .34%.

 

Take-Away

Dr. Burry has an excellent record of spotting investment opportunities before the rest of the market catches up. His picks are as disparate as the mortgage market in 2008 and GameStop (GME) in 2020.

Michael Burry’s Stock Market Holdings (Filed Feb 14, 2022)


Image Credit: Livewire


Michael Burry’s Public Investments in SPACs, Prisons, and Electric Hogs

 

On February 14, Michael Burry filed his company’s holdings report with the SEC.  Relative to the previous quarter there was a little reshuffling of his positions. While many fund managers and successful investors such as Cathie Wood are talking about their ideas several times a week in the news, Burry is more quiet. A good way to understand Burry’s thinking and Scion Asset Management’s direction is to review changes to his 13F holdings. Or, hope for a rare
tweet.

Below we list all of Scion’s public company purchases and sales then provide information so you may drill down even deeper into Burry’s small and microcap holdings.  

 

 

Why it Matters

No one would disagree that Burry’s investment universe is broader than the average self-directed investor and even deeper than the average hedge fund manager.  With this in mind, out of the entire universe of publicly held corporations he could hold, there are only six that Burry’s portfolio owned at the end of the fourth quarter. One is a SPAC that is merging with an electric vehicle (EV) company. Two are small-cap holdings Scion had owned the previous quarter – Burry lightened up on one position and added to another. Three new large-cap purchases that round out the rest of the holdings span the defense, finance, and pharmaceutical industries.

Holdings Top to Bottom

Scion’s largest holding is Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY). BMY had a market value on filing date of $18.7M, Scion’s position represents .014% of the company. The large pharmaceutical company was added last quarter while holdings in drug retailer CVS were brought to zero during the quarter.

Insurance company Fidelity National Financial, Inc. (FNF) provides various insurance products in the US with a large focus on real estate-related products. This includes title insurance, escrow, and other title-related services. FNF also provides technology and transaction services to the real estate and mortgage industries. Plus, life insurance products including annuities. The company had a market value on the filing date
of $16.96M, Scion’s position represents .114% of the company.

General Dynamics Corporation (GD) is a large U.S. aerospace and defense contractor. It operates through four segments: Aerospace, Marine Systems, Combat Systems, and Technologies. GD had a market value on the filing date of $16.68, Scion’s position represents .287% of the company. Scion’s position in defense contractor Lockheed Martin (LMT) was brought to zero during the quarter.

On Dec. 13, 2021 Harley-Davidson, Inc. (HOG), announced that AEA-Bridges Impact Corp. (IMPX), a special purpose acquisition company or SPAC with a focus on sustainability, entered into a definitive business combination agreement under which they will combine with LiveWire.

The market value of Scion’s position was $6.69 million at quarter-end, which represented 6.94% of the company’s market value.

Research, News, and Market Data on Motorsport Games

 

UPDATE ARRIVES AHEAD OF THE SEASON KICKOFF AT THE DAYTONA 500, WHERE LIVE FAST MOTORSPORTS WILL RACE WITH A NASCAR 21: IGNITION PAINT SCHEME

MIAMI, Feb. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Motorsport Games Inc. (NASDAQ: MSGM) (“Motorsport Games”), a leading racing game developer, publisher and esports ecosystem provider of official motorsport racing series throughout the world, announces today the addition of NASCAR’s Next Gen car to NASCAR 21: Ignition, the officially licensed  video game of the world’s most popular stock car racing series. The Next Gen car update will be available starting Thursday, February 17, 2022 within a new “Test Drive mode” for players on all platforms (PlayStation, Xbox and PC).

The Next Gen car update arrives just in time for the start of the 2022 NASCAR regular season and its first race – the Daytona 500 – scheduled to be held Sunday, February 20, 2022. With the Next Gen cars being the most highly anticipated change coming to NASCAR this year, Motorsport Games has been working on implementing the car into NASCAR 21: Ignition since its launch to ensure that players will have authentic representation of the sport in its most current state. Players can look forward to driving the No. 78 Live Fast Motorsports Next Gen Ford Mustang test car in-game within the all-new Test Drive mode, getting a handle on the new car for the first time.

“Our development team couldn’t be happier about adding Next Gen cars to the current iteration of Ignition, especially prior to the kickoff of the 2022 NASCAR season,” said George Holmquist, Vice President of Publishing and Marketing at Motorsport Games. “We have shared in the excitement of our players and NASCAR fans with this highly anticipated game addition. We made sure to recreate the Next Gen car as close to its real-life counterpart as possible and we can’t wait for everyone to get acclimated with driving the newest stock car in-game, just like the drivers will be throughout the year.”

Not only will users at home get to use the Next Gen cars in-game, but attendees of the Daytona 500 race weekend will have the opportunity to test drive the Next Gen car at the eNASCAR Arcade on site. Players will be able to drive the car around the iconic Daytona International Speedway prior to the showcase event on race day. Motorsport Games representatives will be on hand to assist players and answer questions about the newest update.

In addition, fans can look forward to kicking off the 2022 NASCAR season with a Free Play Weekend of NASCAR 21: Ignition, available on the Xbox platform from February 17 – 20, 2022. The game comes complete with a number of modes, such as Race Now, Online Multiplayer and the brand new Paint Booth. NASCAR 21: Ignition contains all drivers, teams and tracks from the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series season and is accessible for players of all skill levels.

The Daytona 500 weekend will also see Live Fast Motorsports kick off the second year of its partnership with Motorsport Games by racing with a NASCAR 21: Ignition and Xbox-themed scheme on its No. 78 Ford Mustang. This marks the first of seven select races this season that B.J. McLeod’s No. 78 car will feature a Motorsport Games-inspired livery. Additionally, McLeod will race with a custom-designed Motorsport Games helmet and the Live Fast Motorsports pit crew will wear Motorsport Games branded fire suits throughout the season.

Release – Motorsport Games And Adam Breeden Announce Global Agreement With Formula 1 To Create Next-Level Competitive Socialising Experience



Motorsport Games And Adam Breeden Announce Global Agreement With Formula 1® To Create Next-Level Competitive Socialising Experience, Launching In London In 2022

Research, News, and Market Data on Motorsport Games

 

MIAMI, Feb. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Adam Breeden, the pioneer of competitive socialising in the UK and entrepreneurial force behind some of the sector’s most successful concepts, has announced plans for his most ambitious and exciting project yet – an immersive, state of the art F1® racing simulation experience, gamified for a mass audience, in a unique global licence agreement with Formula 1®.

Formula 1’s commitment to the partnership is reflected in the fact that the global sporting brand has chosen to take a meaningful equity position in the new company. Through the exclusive, long-term partnership, as many as 30 venues will be rolled out worldwide in the next five years, and Kindred Concepts have agreed a conditional lease with Landsec to launch the new concept at One New Change, the premier retail and leisure destination in the City of London, in Q4 2022.

Kindred Concepts, a new company founded by Adam Breeden, co-founder of Puttshack, Flight Club, Bounce, All Star Lanes and Hijingo, and backed by leisure and entertainment sector investor Imbiba, together with Formula 1®, will operate the new concept, taking competitive socialising to the next level with a premium offering promising best-in-class hospitality and design.

Fusing racing and gaming, with the fun of competitive socialising, and the glamour and spirit of F1®, the concept will cater to a wide range of groups and occasions, from fun-filled nights out, to family experiences, corporate events and everything in between, boasting an impressive feature bar with an extensive offering, surrounded by dining and drinks areas with elevated food menus.

Adam Breeden, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Kindred Concepts, said: “When people come to one of our venues, we have to wow them, and this new concept is going to take people’s breath away. With our knowledge of creating best-in-class concepts and operations, and the strength of the Formula One brand, we are going to break barriers in competitive socialising, marrying cutting edge technology, a premium F&B offering, and a visually stimulating setting, with the unrivalled glamour and excitement of F1, to create an unforgettable, adrenaline-fuelled experience.”

Ben Pincus, Director of Commercial Partnerships, Formula 1®, said: “We’re thrilled to partner with best-in-class operators on this global opportunity, which will create an incredible entertainment experience for a worldwide audience, and a go-to hospitality venue for Formula 1 fans and non-fans alike. The racing simulators will bring to life the experience of driving a Formula 1 car in a high-octane, stylish and fun environment, giving more people the opportunity to enjoy and get closer to the world of F1.”

An in-house tech team is working with Studio 397, part of Motorsport Games (NASDAQ: MSGM), a leading racing game developer, publisher and esports ecosystem provider, and Formula 1®, to create a new gaming experience leveraging Studio 397’s racing simulation platform rFactor 2 for this groundbreaking concept.

Dmitry Kozko, CEO, Motorsport Games, said: “We’re honoured to work with Kindred Concepts and Formula 1 to help successfully launch this cutting-edge gaming experience. Motorsport Games prides itself on the authenticity and realism brought to each of our games and the simulators at this venue will be no different. We look forward to each guest getting a true to life feel of driving a Formula 1 car in these state-of-the-art simulators in this unique setting.”

For the site at One New Change, up to sixty bespoke, cutting-edge motion racing simulators are being designed by a leading simulator design company, in collaboration with F1®. Guests will choose from a variety of racing modes to compete against each other individually, in team-based groups or as part of all-venue racing formats, with different car modes for all ages and abilities making it competitive and exciting for all who race, regardless of skill. The venue will also provide enhanced experiences on Grands Prix weekends.

Marcus Geddes, Managing Director – Central London at Landsec, said: “The growing popularity of leisure across our retail destinations is driven by unique, one-of-a-kind experiences that can’t be had anywhere else – and this world-first with Formula 1 goes above and beyond. The scale of this exciting new concept is a valuable addition to the City and its surrounding communities, and will provide guests at One New Change with an unforgettable day or night out.”

Kindred Concepts aims to roll out at pace from launch, with a mixture of owned and operated venues, joint ventures, and franchise partnerships. Target locations include the UK, the US, key western European Cities, the Middle East and Asia.  

The new concept will be operated by Kindred Concepts, a new venture formed of a senior team that comprises many of Breeden’s long-term business partners, including Diane Jervis, Chief Development Officer.

Further information about the launch of the concept at One New Change will be revealed later this year.
