$VSQTF New Strategic Initiative Related to FansUnite Media, Inc.
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 31, 2018 — Victory Square Technologies Inc. (“Victory Square” or the “Company“) (CSE:VST) (OTC:VSQTF) (FWB:6F6) is pleased to announce that, as part of the Company’s long-term strategy to maximize shareholder value, the board of directors has approved a strategic initiative to unlock the intrinsic value of its wholly owned portfolio subsidiary, FansUnite Media Inc. (“FansUnite“) by contemplating a distribution of a portion of the common shares currently held to shareholders of Victory Square. Victory Square will evaluate, consider and assess the mechanism by which to effect such distribution on a tax efficient and financially prudent basis, with the aim of ultimately capitalizing FansUnite into a stand-alone publicly listed entity, which is anticipated to occur later this year.
FansUnite is developing a new social sports platform using blockchain technology. Blockchain technology and the inherent security it provides will enable FansUnite to develop a reliable, transparent platform that is expected to become a standard amongst betting platforms around the world. The newly created FansUnite Token has been developed as the currency to be used across the platform, harnessing the benefits of blockchain technology to avoid payment problems associated with legacy gambling, providing freedom of choice over betting markets, ensuring betting arrangements are honoured exactly as entered, and providing stable value and low costs. FansUnite is progressing with licensing and regulatory arrangements and expects to launch this new platform in 2018.
Shafin Tejani, Chief Executive Officer of Victory Square, commented: “The objective of the contemplated distribution is to provide shareholders with a significant stake in FansUnite as it progresses towards the launch of its new sports betting platform, pursues capital raising and explores opportunities to become a stand-alone publicly traded company. This will enable the capital markets to appropriately value one of our portfolio investments while we continue to concentrate on our core business as a venture builder and technology incubator.”
Subject to all requisite regulatory approvals, the mechanism, timing and quantum of any such future distribution will be subject to the determination of the Company’s board of directors, in its sole discretion, taking into account, among other things, liquidity, financial condition, corporate strategy, tax implications, market trends and other capital market considerations. There is no assurance that any such distribution will be made in a timely manner or at all, or that Victory Square will complete the planned distribution of FansUnite common shares within the anticipated timeframe or at all.
