For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, revenues fell 24.4% year-over-year to $36.7 million, and the company reported a net loss of $35.6 million. A significant subsequent event is the signing of a merger agreement with GameSquare Holdings, Inc. in October 2023. The company has also received a notice of delisting from Nasdaq for failing to meet the minimum bid price requirement, with a compliance period extended to March 18, 2024 [Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets](index=4&type=page&id=Condensed%20Consolidated%20Balance%20Sheets) As of September 30, 2023, the company's total assets were $40.3 million, a significant decrease from $67.2 million at December 31, 2022.
