Operating Subsidiaries

iGenius net revenue in the third quarter of 2023 was $16.3 million, an increase of $4.1 million or 33.6% over the comparable period in 2022; with the increase attributable to a $4.3 million or 36.3% increase in subscription revenue, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in ndau sales. Growth in the third quarter was attributable to continued product enhancements and expansion into new markets globally, resulting in substantial growth in our membership. Net revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $42.2 million, an increase of $4.2 million or 11.1% over the comparable period in 2022.

SAFETek net revenue in the third quarter of 2023 was $2.9 million, an increase of $0.1 million or 3.0% over the comparable period in 2022. Net revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $7.8 million, a decrease of $1.7 million or 18.0% over the comparable period in 2022. The nine month decrease of 18.0% in net revenue was the result of a 17% decrease in the average value of Bitcoin, a 67% increase in the average Bitcoin mining difficulty levels, the migration of mining servers to a new data center and increased power and hosting costs, partially offset by the replacement of older less efficient Bitcoin mining equipment with new generation higher performing miners.

Operational Highlights

The Company continues to expand its Bitcoin mining operations. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, SAFETek, our Blockchain technology subsidiary, completed the expansion of its mining operations through the deployment of its new next-generation of miners. By doing so, the Company continued to deliver on its initiative to use low-carbon and renewable energy sources in its mining operations. With the new mining server expansion completed and fully deployed, SAFETek has all its mining servers operating from 100% renewable energy sources and the latest generation and highest efficiency mining technology. This expansion not only increased SAFETek’s total operational hash rate capacity to approximately 480+ Petahash per Second (equal to .480 EH/s Exahash per Second), representing a nearly 50% increase in operational hash rate to SAFETek’s online hash rate capacity; but also significantly reduced its direct operating costs.

iGenius also continued to gain momentum during the third quarter as a result of product and sales training events in the U.S., Canada, and Europe. These distributor-led events were attended by thousands of iGenius community members and promoted the iGenius platform of education to the self-directed investor. The primary goal of these events is to invite people from around the world to learn firsthand about iGenius, which leads to stronger customer acquisition.

In the fourth quarter, iGenius expects to continue to deliver on its growth strategy, with plans to launch a new innovative product that it believes will resonate in its global markets and align with consumer trends and preferences.

Company CFO, Ralph Valvano, commented, "After a bit of a slow start to the year, we accelerated our progress in the second and third quarters primarily due to a few key factors: (i) growth in SAFETek's overall hash rate(ii) SAFETek’s execution of cost reductions and improved efficiency strategies (iii) increased marketing for iGenius and (iv) growth of 33.6% in the iGenius's subscription revenue, due to product enhancements and expansion into new markets globally, resulting in substantial growth in our subscription business. In addition to our operational progress, we also improved our financial position during the quarter. We exited the quarter with $22.5 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents up $2.2 million or 10.8%, and net cash provided by operating activities of $5.8 million for the nine months ended 2023.”

Mr. Valvano added, “We have experienced significant revenue growth this quarter and continue to recognize positive net income from operations and an increase in stockholders’ equity, despite industry headwinds and non-recurring operating costs. We continue to manage our balance sheet by investing in new next-generation equipment, paying down debt, while maintaining a strong liquid cash position. In addition, during the third quarter, we continued to use our capital opportunistically by repurchasing and cancelling 302,919,223 shares of our common stock for a purchase price of $2,922,380, or an average of $0.00964739 per share, resulting in an 11.5% decrease in common shares issued and outstanding. We continue to remain laser focused on optimizing operations across both our SAFETek mining and high-performance computing, as well as our iGenius business. Our conservative approach to managing our balance sheet continues to be paramount for us at Investview. We remain steadfastly committed to effectively managing capital in today’s challenging environment and believe we are well positioned to deliver shareholder value going forward in the fourth quarter of 2023 and beyond.”

Investview Chief Executive Officer Victor M. Oviedo commented, “During the third quarter of 2023 we experienced a period of strong momentum marked by several transformational milestones for Investview; with SAFETek and the Bitcoin industry emerging from the depths of the downturn as macro conditions became incrementally more favorable. As we progress in 2023, we remain committed to sustaining a strong balance sheet while adopting a more opportunistic approach to capitalize on compelling value propositions in the market. As part of our 2023-24 growth initiatives, we plan to introduce new business channels which we intend on delivering from both internally developed business channels as well as from potential new acquisitions, which are expected to complement and be highly synergistic to our existing assets and business channels. Moving forward, we will continue to focus on what we can control and setting the stage for long-term value creation for all Investview stakeholders.”
