Golden Triangle Ventures’ ‘Destino Ranch’ Set To Unlock Significant Shareholder Value

RazorPitch - GTVH

The leisure and recreational industry seems poised for a stellar recovery after bearing the brunt of the COVID-19 outbreak, which caused sector revenue to decline substantially. That recovery is evident by the fact that the Invesco Leisure and Entertainment ETF (NYSEARCA:PEJ) is up over 27% over the past six months alone compared to the S&P 500, which is up only 21.7% over the same timeframe. According to The Business Research Company, the arts, entertainment, and recreation sector had a combined annual revenue of about $265 billion in the US alone but is highly fragmented, creating highly profitable opportunities for companies like Golden Triangle Ventures, Inc (OTC:GTVH). Golden Triangle Ventures, Inc (OTC:GTVH) is a multifaceted consulting company pursuing opportunities in the Health, Entertainment and Technology sectors. It also has other additional projects under development that will provide synergistic value to these divisions. Essentially, GTVH seeks to purchase, acquire, and/or joint venture with established entities that management can help assist and develop into unique opportunities. In order to capitalize on the burgeoning opportunity in the leisure and recreational sector, GTVH recently announced a number of exciting corporate developments. First, Lavish Entertainment, GTVH’s wholly owned subsidiary, has developed a comprehensive four-pillar business model that will be a critical component in advancing its mission to create an industry leading entertainment business. For some background, Lavish Entertainment is a Las Vegas-based company that began operations back in 2017 with a vision of becoming nationally recognized in concert production. It has successfully organized some of the most exciting electronic dance music concerts in Las Vegas. Lavish Entertainment’s new model encompasses the following key foundational elements: logistics, staffing, equipment, and production. These pillars were meticulously identified and organized to complement each other and ensure seamless operations across all facets of the company. Second, and what has been getting investors most excited about the company, is that GTVH recently announced the execution of an agreement to acquire approximately 70 acres of prime and improved land for its Destino Ranch ( www.DestinoRanch.com ) project, a flagship venture under its entertainment division. Located strategically in Arizona, this achievement marks a significant milestone for Golden Triangle Ventures. The Destino Ranch project is planned as a multifaceted destination center set to redefine entertainment and hospitality in the region while being sustainable. Ultimately, it will be a destination where nature and technology combine to create unforgettable experiences. Destino Ranch intends to become an international destination that rivals Coachella and other well-known festival sites. With access to nearly 22,000 visitors traveling through the area per day, the location offers an appealing opportunity to become a modern art and music festival mecca. Destino will complement the beautiful natural attributes of the Mojave Desert with an immersive, world-class art installation gallery with rotating exhibits, and a large-scale music venue with state-of-the-art staging and production. As you can see below, Destino is uniquely located on the highly traveled State Route 93 artery between Las Vegas and Phoenix, which is why it would be so compelling for even organizers. The significantly improved property currently includes perimeter fencing, graded roads, solar power systems, large permanent structures, multiple garden areas with nutrient-rich organic soil, a well, a septic system, complete irrigation systems for all the trees, security cameras, and heavy equipment for upkeep and development. These upgrades represent a substantial investment totaling nearly $6 million, which has turned this once-vacant land into a beautiful oasis that provides the initial infrastructure needed to begin the development of Destino Ranch. Steffan Dalsgaard, CEO of Golden Triangle Ventures, stated, "This marks a significant step forward in our vision to create a one-of-a-kind destination that celebrates art, music, and entertainment year-round. Our entire team is beyond confident in our ability to bring this project to life, and our plan is coming closer to reality every day." Just to put the opportunity here in better context, consider this: Billboard reports that Coachella earned more than $114 million in profits in 2017, the first reoccurring festival to break the $100 million mark in a single year. Although that amount is still slightly below the highest-grossing festival of all time—2016's two-weekend Desert Trip, which earned more than $160 million — Coachella has again claimed the top spot among profitable reoccurring festivals, a distinction it has earned each year since 2011. And as the festival's popularity has grown, so has its profit — seven-fold since 2007. In 2007, Coachella earned $16 million when it was still a one-weekend deal. After moving the celebration to two weekends in 2012, the festival earned $47.3 million. At the moment, GTVH has a market capitalization of about $4 million, which implies that even if it only manages to capture 10% of Coachella’s market share, it would be able to unlock substantial shareholder value. Golden Triangle Ventures is actively working to prepare a series of internal production events and will secure bookings for showcasing beginning in Q4 of 2024, further solidifying Destino Ranch's position as a premier entertainment destination. This project is one of Lavish’s largest undertakings and will be managed by GTVH’s newest acquisition, ABI Create, a premier event management and production firm. ABI will maximize the integrated synergy of the four pillars to amplify the development of Destino Ranch and will utilize the project to showcase the newly formed strategic model. ABI Create ( www.ABICreate.com ) was founded in 2015 by Marco Antonio Moreno, who was recently appointed as the new president and COO of Lavish Entertainment. ABI has delivered high-quality productions for a range of large-scale installations at major music festivals, sporting events, and conventions across the United States. Notable projects include collaborations with the NFL Super Bowl, San Diego and New York Comic Con, EDC and Camp EDC, Bonnaroo Music Festival, the Waste Management Phoenix Open, Arnold Palmer Invitational, Burning Man, and many more. For investors who may still be wondering whether this is the right time to get back into leisure and recreational stocks, MSGE’s recent earnings calls reaffirm the outlook of the broader industry. For instance, in the recently reported 2Q24 results, MSGE brought in $403 million, beating consensus expectations of $385 million. This strong growth was attributed to an increase in the number of concerts held at the company’s venue compared to the similar period last year and higher per-event revenues. Management noted that compared to 2Q23 concert bookings for 1H25 at the Garden were ahead by a fairly strong double-digit percentage, and it appears this trend would persist even when looking farther ahead into FY25. In addition to that, the company revealed that four of its venues were on track to exceed initial expectations for concerts this year, and that includes ‘The Garden', where the company is on track to set a new record for the number of concert bookings on a full year basis. And in Q3, the company hosted more than 1.5 million guests at over 200 live events across its portfolio of venues. More importantly, GTVH has reaffirmed its dedication to continuously enhancing shareholder value as the company scales its operations. That is why the company recently announced a pivotal agreement with T&K Zarro, LLC, managed by Tom Zarro, T&K Zarro president and the largest note holder in GTVH. Under this landmark agreement, T&K Zarro, LLC has committed to a structured and disciplined sale of GTVH stock, limiting sales to no more than 10% of the daily trading volume on any given day. Additionally, T&K Zarro has agreed to a 6-month moratorium on all interest accruals within its convertible debentures held in GTVH. This moratorium period is designed to provide GTVH with the necessary time to optimize its operations and capitalize on growth opportunities. Disclaimers: RazorPitch Inc.

Halving of BTFS Storage Rewards

BitTorrent

Singapore, May 28, 2024 – To sustain the growth and success of the BitTorrent ecosystem, BTFS is set to implement a halving on the next round of rewards for storage miners on the BTFS network. From 00:00 (UTC) June 25, 2024, the daily rewards for storage miners on the BTFS network will be halved from 15 billion BTT to 7.5 billion BTT. The BitTorrent File System (BTFS) is a decentralized file storage system that utilizes blockchain technology and peer-to-peer transmission. It allows users to store their files across multiple nodes in a distributed manner, enhancing file security and reliability. BTFS also offers rapid file transfer and access, giving users greater convenience in managing and sharing files. By integrating key features of the BitTorrent Chain (BTTC), such as cross-chain connectivity and multichannel payment options, BTFS significantly enhances user experience. Currently, the BTFS network is experiencing rapid growth with over 8 million nodes across the network, including more than 6 million super miners, according to BTFS SCAN. To support the efficient operations of these nodes, BTFS initiated a rewards program and has provided an aggregate of 25 trillion BTT since the launch of BTFS Mainnet in 2019. Every two years, the BTFS rewards halving will occur causing the rewards for all storage miners across the network to be cut in half. (Halving roadmap) Moreover, halving will also prompt miners to improve node performance by optimizing node operation and reducing waste. In addition, an upgrade of the official website for the BTFS technical community and the release of BTFS v3.0 Mainnet will be scheduled in sync with the halving. These developments are expected to improve the efficiency of the BTFS protocol, expand the user base, and enhance its overall functionality. Looking ahead, BTFS is committed to continuously refining its storage rewards strategies. The goal is to expand the network of nodes participating in file storage on BTFS, providing developers with an efficient, secure, and reliable storage solution boosting both the capacity and the transaction efficiency of the BTTC network. About BTFS The BitTorrent File System (BTFS) is both a protocol and a web application that provides a content-addressable peer-to-peer mechanism for storing and sharing digital content in a decentralized file system, as well as a base platform for decentralized applications (Dapp). The BTFS team has been working on the latest network operations and BTT market sentiment, etc., to make a series of dynamic adjustments such as upload prices and airdrop reward schemes. About BitTorrent Founded with a leading peer-to-peer sharing technology standard in 2004, BitTorrent, Inc. is a consumer software company based in San Francisco. Its protocol is the largest decentralized P2P network in the world, driving 22% of upstream and 3% of downstream traffic globally. Its flagship desktop and mobile products, BitTorrent and µTorrent, enable users to send large files over the internet, connecting legitimate third-party content providers with users. With over 100 million active users, BitTorrent products have been installed on over 1 billion devices in over 138 countries worldwide. Since November 2018, TRON (TRX), Binance (BNB), and Bitcoin (BTC) holders have the opportunity to purchase one-year subscriptions of BitTorrent or µTorrent products, including Ads Free and Pro for Windows. Pro includes anti-virus and anti-malware screening, file converting and playability in HD. Users can visit bittorrent.com or utorrent.com to learn more.

Tribe Property Technologies

Tribe Property Technologies CEO Joseph Nakhla joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company's financial results for the fiscal year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023. Nakhla began by highlighting the company's revenue growth, with total revenue reaching $19.39 million, marking an 8.8% increase compared to the previous fiscal year. This growth was attributed to various factors, including an expansion in software and service fees driven by an increased number of properties on the Tribe platform, higher financial services revenue associated with banking partnerships, software licensing fees, and the acquisition of Meritus. Additionally, Nakhla noted a significant improvement in gross profit, which amounted to $6.63 million for fiscal 2023 compared to $5.75 million in the previous year. This increase in gross profit and gross profit percentage was attributed to the addition of service contracts through organic growth, acquisitions, and restructuring efforts. Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2023 showed improvement as well, with an outflow of $6.56 million, representing a 19.8% improvement compared to the previous fiscal year. This improvement was driven by increased revenue and cost-cutting initiatives. Looking ahead to 2024, Nakhla expressed optimism about the company's prospects for improved revenue growth, profitability, and expanding margins. Tribe aims to achieve this through various strategies, including increasing monthly recurring revenue by securing new property management agreements, onboarding more communities onto the Tribe platform, winning new software licensing agreements, and boosting digital services revenue.

Flash Wins California Energy Commission $5.8M Grant for EV Charger ‘Innovation Lab’ in Oakland

Flash Parking

The California Energy Commission (CEC) and Flash, a pioneer in parking + charging solutions, today announced Flash secured a $5.8 million grant from CEC for a large-scale electric vehicle (EV) charger demonstration project in Oakland, California. The first-of-its-kind project will deploy at least 446 low-cost Level 2 EV chargers over a two-year period in convenient, high-density, high-visibility installations in a 1.5-mile area around downtown Oakland. With $24 million in funding from California’s Clean Transportation Program, the CEC grant to Flash and other awardees aims to demonstrate replicable and scalable business and technology models to deploy Level 2 charging infrastructure and improve public awareness of and confidence in Level 2 charging access. The project will also include installation of two Battery Energy Storage Systems that will help safeguard EV charger affordability during periods of peak energy demand. “Bay Area residents’ early commitment to the EV transition uniquely positions this community to serve as an ‘Innovation Lab’ for electrification projects in California and nationwide,” said Matt McCaffree, Vice President of Utility Market Development for Flash. “This collaboration with CEC will not only show what’s possible in high-density smart cities like Oakland but also keep the charging gap for early adopters from becoming a confidence gap for the next wave.” Bay Area EV adoption continues to outpace the national average by a factor of three. By installing reliable, affordable, and convenient public chargers, Flash and the CEC aim to close the charging gap and encourage further EV adoption—particularly among downtown residents, for whom dependable public charging is a prerequisite for ownership in lieu of at-home chargers. The success of the project would establish quality public charging as a standard among the practical, convenient, and environmentally-friendly “smart cities” of the future. “For residents living in downtown areas where at-home charging isn't an option, reliable and convenient public charging is key for continued EV adoption,” said CEC’s Lead Commissioner for Transportation Patty Monahan. “The CEC is looking forward to Flash's deployment of hundreds of Level 2 chargers throughout downtown Oakland to be a model of successful public charging.” The project will also generate invaluable data regarding battery capacities, operating costs, replicable price points, and emergency procedures, as well as insights toward stimulating demand and increasing return on investment. This information can then be used to expand and improve upon the Oakland deployment and inform electrification efforts throughout California and beyond. About Flash Flash is a pioneering technology company bringing seamless parking and EV charging experiences to drivers through a first-of-its-kind digital ecosystem. Flash’s platform connects reservable parking and charging in the apps drivers use every day with garage, surface lot, event, and valet parking locations — connected and controlled via a cloud-based operating system with unrivaled intelligence. Customer-obsessed brands partner with Flash to deliver digital, easy-to-use, reliable, and increasingly frictionless experiences to drivers eager to pay for a solution that eliminates wasted time, excess emissions, and stress from driving.
