CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) is a clinical stage biotechnology company specializing in the development of novel treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain and central nervous system.

The company was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in Houston, Texas.

Organ Targeted Therapeutics

The company’s lead drug candidate, Berubicin, is proposed for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”), an aggressive and incurable form of brain cancer. Berubicin also has potential to treat other central nervous system malignancies. Based on limited clinical data, Berubicin appears to be the first anthracycline to cross the blood brain barrier in the adult brain, and it was the subject of a successful Phase 1 study which found the MDT and produced efficacy data as well.

CNS holds a worldwide exclusive license to the Berubicin chemical compound. The company has acquired all requisite data and know-how from Reata Pharmaceuticals Inc. related to a completed Phase I clinical trial of Berubicin in malignant brain tumors. In this trial, 44% of patients experienced a statistically significant improvement in clinical benefit. In 2017, CNS entered into a collaboration and asset purchase agreement with Reata.

CNS intends to explore the potential of Berubicin to treat other diseases, including pancreatic and ovarian cancers and lymphoma. The company is also examining plans to develop combination therapies that include Berubicin.

CNS estimates that more than $25 million in private capital and grants were invested in Berubicin prior to the company’s $9.8 million IPO in November 2019.

CNS intends to submit an IND for Berubicin during the fourth quarter of 2020 and expects to commence a Phase II clinical trial of Berubicin for the treatment of GBM in the U.S. in Q1 2021. A sub-licensee partner was awarded a $6 million EU/Polish National Center for Research and Development grant to undertake a Phase II trial of Berubicin in adults and a first-ever Phase I trial in pediatric GBM patients in Poland in 2021.

The company’s second drug candidate, WP1244, is a novel DNA binding agent licensed from the MD Anderson Cancer Center. In preclinical studies, WP1244 proved to be 500-times more potent than the chemotherapeutic agent, daunorubicin, in inhibiting tumor cell proliferation. The company has entered into a sponsored research agreement with the MD Anderson Cancer Center to further the development of WP1244.

CNS Pharmaceuticals recently engaged U.S.-based Pharmaceutics International Inc. and Italian BSP Pharmaceuticals SpA for the production of the Berubicin drug product. The company has implemented a dual-track manufacturing strategy to mitigate COVID-19-related risks, diversify its supply chain and provide for localized availability of Berubicin. CNS has already completed synthesis of Berubicin’s active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and has shipped the API to both manufacturers in order to prepare an injectable form of Berubicin for clinical use.

Global Brain Tumor Therapeutics Market

The high recurrence rate of malignant brain tumors is due to reappearance of focal masses, indicating that a sub-population of tumor cells in these cancers may be insensitive to current therapies and may be responsible for reinitiating tumor growth. This necessitates the development of newer drugs in the market that demonstrate greater efficacy in treating such aggressive cancers.

A global increase in neurological disorders has placed increased attention on cancers of the brain over the past decade. Neurological disorders are becoming one of the most prevalent types of disorders, due to longer life expectancy, greater exposure to infection and an increasingly sedentary lifestyle. Because few treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain exist, costs are high and have acted as a restraint for the brain tumor therapeutics market.

Despite progress in surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapeutic strategies, effective treatments for brain cancer are limited by a lack of specific therapies for the brain and the difficulty in transporting therapeutic compounds across the blood brain barrier. Therefore, there is a significant need for novel and effective therapeutic drugs and strategies that prolong survival and improve quality of life for brain tumor patients.

Several companies are making significant investments into R&D, which is expected to bring more treatment options to the market in the near future. Industry reports consistently project continued growth in the market.

One report estimates that the global brain tumor therapeutics market will reach a valuation of $2.74 billion in 2023, with the market expected to register a CAGR of 11% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2023. Another report projects that the global brain tumor therapeutics market will reach $3.4 billion by 2025, up from $2.25 billion in 2019 (https://nnw.fm/eDUjp).

Massimo Group (NASDAQ: MAMO)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Massimo Group (NASDAQ: MAMO).

Volkswagen has emerged as Europe's top seller of battery-electric vehicles, marking a significant shift in a market long dominated by Tesla. Recent sales data from 2025 indicates that the German automaker delivered more electric cars across the region than its U.S. competitor, signaling a redistribution of market leadership rather than a slowdown in overall demand. Volkswagen's electric vehicle deliveries in Europe rose steeply over the past year, climbing to well over a quarter-million units. Tesla, by contrast, recorded a notable contraction in regional sales over the same period. While Tesla's Model Y continued to register as Europe's single most popular electric car, total volumes fell compared with the previous year, reducing the company's overall footprint in the market. At the same time, Europe's EV landscape is becoming more crowded. Chinese manufacturers, most notably BYD, have expanded their presence and in some instances outperformed Tesla in specific markets or time periods. Their gradual expansion adds another layer of competition for both Tesla and established European automakers. Volkswagen's rise to the top reflects a broader transformation underway in Europe's electric vehicle sector. Market leadership is increasingly shaped by product diversity, regional manufacturing strength, and the ability to adapt to local consumer expectations. For Tesla, regaining momentum in Europe is likely to depend on refreshed models, pricing adjustments, and a careful approach to navigating the region's political and cultural sensitivities. For other North American players in the EV space like Massimo Group (NASDAQ: MAMO), what is happening in Europe can offer valuable insights into how to increase a firm's chances of claiming a larger share of the market for its models.

CMX Gold & Silver Corp., an exploration-stage company advancing the historic Clayton Silver Mine in Idaho, just announced plans to undertake a non-brokered private placement financing

Proceeds from the offering will be utilized for a geophysical survey of the mine and initial drilling program at its 100%-owned flagship property

The Clayton Silver Mine Story described below explains the unique untapped geological opportunity missed by all previous miners

CMX (CSE: CXC) (OTC: CXXMF) , an exploration-stage company advancing the historic Clayton Silver Mine in Idaho, just announced its plans to undertake a non-brokered private placement financing for aggregate gross proceeds of up to CAN$2,000,000. The proceeds obtained from the offering will be utilized for a geophysical survey as well as an initial diamond drilling program on the company's flagship Clayton Silver Project in Idaho, U.S.A. ( https://ibn.fm/Z2dXC ).

CMX Gold & Silver Corp. (CSE: CXC) (OTC: CXXMF) is advancing the historic Clayton Silver Mine in Idaho, a past-producing underground operation with a long operating history and significant remaining exploration potential. The company holds a 100% interest in the project through its wholly owned U.S. subsidiary and has positioned the asset as its sole operational focus, allowing management to concentrate technical, financial, and strategic efforts on a single, well-documented silver system.

Clayton was mined for more than five decades but was never systematically explored using modern geophysical or drilling techniques. Historical operators followed known mineralization to supply a relatively small mill and did not pursue broader resource definition or deeper targets, leaving substantial portions of the mineralized system only partially mined or entirely untested. CMX has compiled extensive historical records and mine data that now form the foundation for a modern reassessment of the property.

As CMX advances Clayton during a period of sustained supply deficits and rising industrial demand for silver, the company does so with a high degree of internal alignment. As of December 2025, management, directors, and associated shareholders collectively held approximately 70% of the company’s issued and outstanding shares, underscoring a long-term commitment to the project’s development.

The company is headquartered in Calgary, Alberta.

The Clayton Silver Project

The Clayton Silver Project is CMX’s 100%-owned flagship asset, located in the Bayhorse Mining District of central Idaho, approximately 30–40 kilometers south-southwest of Challis. The property comprises a 1,028-acre land package, including 29 patented mining claims and two patented mill sites (approximately 562 acres) and 20 unpatented claims (approximately 466 acres). The patented claims provide surface ownership rights, carry no government royalties, and do not require drilling permits.

Historic Production and Development

The Clayton Silver Mine operated from 1935 to 1986 and was one of the most active underground mines in the district. Recorded production totaled approximately 7.0 million ounces of silver, along with lead, zinc, copper, and minor gold, from an estimated 2.15 million tonnes of ore, representing an illustrative gross metal value of approximately $660 million at $75/oz silver. Underground development reached eight levels to 1,100 feet, with nearly 19,700 feet of workings, and partially mined two tabular ore bodies known as the South and North Ore Bodies.

Geological Potential

Mine records and historical drilling indicate that mineralization remains open to depth and along strike. Notably, drill hole 1501-A intersected 22 feet of high-grade polymetallic mineralization at approximately 1,425 feet, confirming continuity below the deepest historic workings. CMX has determined that little modern geophysical work or systematic exploration drilling was conducted during the mine’s operating life.

Planned Exploration Programs

Beginning in spring 2026, CMX plans to conduct a comprehensive geophysical program over the historic mine and surrounding structures, including a 3-D Direct Current Induced Polarization (DCIP) survey and a Magnetotelluric (MT) survey. These surveys are intended to delineate known structures, identify extensions of partially mined ore bodies, and evaluate deeper sources of mineralization, with follow-up diamond drilling planned to test priority targets.

Surface Stockpile Opportunity

CMX also controls a surface stockpile estimated to exceed 1.0 million tonnes of mineralized material that was historically mined but not processed. Testing conducted in 2014 and TOMRA ore-sorting trials in 2022 and 2023 demonstrated that X-Ray Transmission (XRT) sorting increased silver grades by approximately 6.4 times and lead and zinc grades by approximately seven times, while recovering more than 70% of contained metals into a high-grade concentrate representing about 10% of the original mass.

Market Opportunity

Silver is a critical industrial metal with more than 10,000 documented uses and is valued for its electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, reflectivity, corrosion resistance, and antimicrobial properties. Global silver demand is estimated at approximately 1.19 billion ounces, while global mine production is approximately 830 million ounces, resulting in a persistent supply deficit driven largely by industrial consumption across electronics, solar photovoltaics, electric vehicles, medical applications, catalysts, and battery technologies.

These supply-demand dynamics have been reflected in pricing. In January 2026, silver exceeded $80 per ounce, up 160% over the prior 12 months. This pricing underscores the impact of sustained physical deficits, declining mine supply since 2016, and rising industrial demand tied to green energy, electrification, and emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence. With approximately 70% of global silver production sourced as a byproduct of other metal mining, the industry’s ability to respond quickly to higher prices remains constrained, reinforcing the structural nature of the current market imbalance.

Leadership Team

Jan M. Alston, President and Chief Executive Officer, has more than four decades of experience in public junior natural resource companies across mining, oil and gas, and corporate finance. A trained lawyer, he practiced business law and securities regulation before serving as co-founder, President, and CEO of Purcell Energy Ltd., and later as CEO of Tenergy Ltd., both publicly listed energy companies that were ultimately sold in significant transactions. Since 2011, he has led the advancement of CMX’s Clayton Silver Project.

Glen R. Alston, Chief Financial Officer, has more than 30 years of experience in senior executive and management roles with public junior mining companies. His background includes corporate finance, stock exchange listings, corporate development, project management, and accounting and audit oversight, and he played a key role in CMX’s acquisition of the Clayton Silver Project.

Projects

Santa Fe Mine

The 26.4 km² Santa Fe Mine is Lahontan’s flagship asset and core development priority. A past-producing open-pit, heap-leach gold and silver operation, Santa Fe historically yielded more than 359,000 ounces of gold and 702,000 ounces of silver between 1988 and 1995. The site benefits from established infrastructure—including power, water, and road access—and more than 79% of its known resources are unencumbered by royalties.

A 2024 NI 43-101 resource estimate outlines 1.54 million ounces of gold equivalent (AuEq) in the Indicated category and 0.41 million ounces Inferred, all pit-constrained. Oxide resources average among the highest grades in the state and are distributed across five known deposits. A 2025 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) projects strong economic returns, including an after-tax NPV5% of $200 million, a 34.2% internal rate of return (IRR), and average annual production of approximately 50,000 ounces AuEq over an eight-year mine life.

Permitting is well underway for both the Exploration and Mine Plans of Operation, covering over 12 km² and more than 700 drill holes. The company is targeting construction permits in late 2026 and continues to pursue oxide resource expansion and metallurgical optimization, particularly within the Slab-Calvada corridor.

West Santa Fe

West Santa Fe lies just 13 kilometers from the flagship and is being explored as a potential satellite operation. The project is defined by a shallow, oxide-dominant gold-silver system with a conceptual target of 0.5 to 1.0 million ounces AuEq based on historic drilling and recent surface sampling, which returned up to 2.61 g/t Au and 899 g/t Ag (14.6 g/t AuEq). A 6,300-meter Phase One reverse circulation drill program is scheduled for 2025 to validate historical data and support a maiden resource estimate. Development is streamlined under a low-cost option agreement and a rapid permitting path via Notice of Intent.

Moho and Redlich

The Moho and Redlich projects provide additional longer-term upside within Lahontan’s portfolio. Moho features high-grade, oxidized epithermal veins with historic production at grades of 20–25 g/t Au and 300 g/t Ag. A 2019 core drill program confirmed the presence of high-grade mineralization at depth. Redlich, located along trend from the historic Candelaria silver mine, hosts disseminated Ag mineralization in epithermal veins and hydrothermal breccias but remains untested by drilling. While no near-term programs are currently disclosed, both assets represent future exploration optionality.

Market Opportunity

Lahontan Gold operates in Nevada, consistently ranked the top global mining jurisdiction by the Fraser Institute due to its transparent permitting process, legal stability, and established infrastructure. Nevada produces over 4.5 million ounces of gold annually, generating approximately $9 billion in value, and ranks fifth globally in total gold production.

According to the World Gold Council, total gold demand in Q1 2025 reached 1,206 tonnes, up 1% year-over-year, marking the strongest first quarter since 2016. Central banks added 244 tonnes to reserves, a slight slowdown from the prior quarter but well within the strong buying range observed over the past three years. Meanwhile, silver demand is supported by strong industrial usage in solar panels, electric vehicles, and semiconductors, with long-term deficits forecast in the physical silver market.

With macro-driven demand for gold, technology-driven silver consumption, and strong institutional buying across both metals, Lahontan is uniquely positioned to capitalize through its portfolio of oxide-focused projects in a top-tier jurisdiction—offering near-term production potential and longer-term resource expansion.

LaFleur Minerals (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (FSE: 3WK0) reported major technical and infrastructure advancements at its Swanson Gold Deposit and wholly owned Beacon Gold Mill in Québec as it enters the final stages of its Preliminary Economic Assessment. Progress includes completed verification drilling to support the PEA, ongoing metallurgical and mill optimization studies, and evaluation of permitted tailings facility expansion, all supporting a disciplined, capital-efficient restart of gold production. With gold prices well above levels seen during Beacon's last operation in 2022, the company is advancing plans to restart the 750-tonne-per-day mill, scalable under the PEA to 1,000 tpd and potentially 3,000–4,000 tpd longer term, leveraging feed from its nearby Swanson Gold Project. LaFleur also highlighted recently completed $7.8 million financing to fully fund the mill restart, continued metallurgical testing and infrastructure planning, and preliminary discussions with Canadian National Railway on rail enhancements to support long-term production and logistics efficiencies.

LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) is a Canadian exploration and development company advancing the district-scale Swanson Gold Project in Québec’s prolific Abitibi Gold Belt and progressing toward the near-term restart of gold production at its wholly owned Beacon Gold Mill. The company’s strategy centers on consolidating strategic land packages—highlighted by its flagship Swanson Gold Project, a 160 km² district-scale property that includes several prospects rich in gold and critical metals previously held by Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines, and Globex Mining. The company is leveraging its 100%-owned, fully permitted and recently refurbished Beacon Gold Mill to transition from explorer to near-term gold producer—a key inflection point that typically triggers a market re-rating, further bolstered by current rising gold market prices. By processing material from Swanson and offering custom milling to regional projects, LaFleur aims to generate cash flow with minimal capital outlay, targeting annual gold production of up to 15,000 to 20,000 ounces by early 2026.

LaFleur’s vision is to evolve into an intermediate gold producer by capitalizing on strong market conditions and Québec’s rich mining infrastructure. The location, in the world-class Abitibi Gold Belt, and its infrastructure advantage, positions LaFleur for regional consolidation, strategic partnerships, or acquisition interest. Its mission emphasizes efficient value creation through methodical exploration, low-cost asset advancement, and opportunistic acquisitions—including land and deposits from Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines, and Globex Mining.

Québec ranks among the world’s top mining jurisdictions, offering access to flow-through capital and regulatory stability. LaFleur’s integrated strategy—combining exploration at Swanson, a permitted mill at Beacon, and potential custom milling agreements—supports a streamlined path to near-term production.

LaFleur Minerals is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Projects

LaFleur Minerals’ operations focus on two strategically located assets in the Abitibi Gold Belt: the Swanson Gold Project and the Beacon Gold Mill and Mine. These projects leverage the region’s world-class mining infrastructure and high-grade gold potential to drive the company’s transition to production.

Swanson Gold Project

The Swanson Gold Project spans 16,600 hectares and hosts the Swanson, Bartec, and Jolin gold deposits along a major structural break in the Abitibi Gold Belt. The 2024 Mineral Resource Estimate for the Swanson deposit outlines 123,400 oz of gold in Indicated category (2.1 million tonnes at 1.8 g/t) and 64,500 oz in Inferred category (872,000 tonnes at 2.3 g/t). Located 66 km north of Val-d’Or, the Project is accessible by road and rail and benefits from more than 36,000 meters of historical drilling, along with existing infrastructure including an 80-meter decline portal.

Recent work—including airborne magnetics, soil sampling, and Induced Polarization surveys—has identified multiple high-priority targets and resulted in several high-grade gold assay results, including a grab sample grading 11.71 g/t Au at Jolin, which points to significant upside as the Company prepares to test multiple new zones.

LaFleur has defined over 50 drill targets at Swanson and nearby prospects (Bartec, Jolin, Marimac) and is completing a minimum 5,000-metre diamond drilling beginning in June 2025. LaFleur Minerals has also initiated permitting for a 100,000-tonne surface bulk sample averaging 1.89 g/t Au, which it plans to process at the Beacon Gold Mill as part of a near-term production strategy.

Beacon Gold Mill

LaFleur’s 100%-owned Beacon Gold Mill is a fully refurbished and permitted mill and tailings storage facility capable of processing 750 tonnes per day (tpd), with potential expansion to 1,800 tpd, with access to numerous nearby gold deposits that could be prime sources of ore. Located only 60 km from Swanson, it underwent a $20 million upgrade by Monarch Mining in 2022 and has been under care and maintenance since early 2023. LaFleur is finalizing a C$5-6 million restart plan, ramping up production by late 2025 into early 2026, processing Swanson mineralized material and assessing custom milling opportunities for regional deposits, creating multiple potential revenue streams.

The Beacon Gold Mill is a de-risked, proven asset that benefits from existing infrastructure, including access to roads, power, and skilled labor, and further enhances the overall value proposition of LaFleur by providing a clear path to production and potential revenue-generation.

Market Opportunity

LaFleur Minerals is targeting the gold mining and processing market in Québec’s Abitibi Gold Belt, one of the world’s most productive gold regions. Its fully permitted Beacon Gold Mill, with a 750 tpd capacity and authorization to process 1.8 million tonnes of tailings, is strategically positioned to handle material from LaFleur’s Swanson Gold Project and to offer custom milling for nearby deposits such as Granada Gold. The company projects annual production of over 30,000 ounces of gold once in full production, with potential for significant revenue generation based on prevailing market prices.

Global demand for gold remains robust, driven by geopolitical risk, inflation hedging, and central bank accumulation. The World Gold Council forecasts 3-5% annual demand growth through 2030, with average prices expected between $3,200 and $3,500/oz. Within this environment, Québec’s top-tier mining jurisdiction—ranked fifth globally by the Fraser Institute in 2023—offers streamlined permitting and access to flow-through capital. LaFleur’s low-cost Beacon restart (C$5-6 million) and proximity to more than 100 active and historical mines position the company to fill a growing need for small-to-medium scale custom milling.

At Swanson, LaFleur plans to grow its current 187,900-ounce resource toward 1 million ounces through its 2025 drilling program. This hub-and-spoke strategy, leveraging centralized milling and strong local infrastructure, reduces development risk and strengthens LaFleur’s foothold in one of the most attractive gold belts in the world.

Astiva Health

The United States has formally communicated its immediate withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO), denying the global body one of its largest donors. The withdrawal follows the signing of an executive order to this effect during the first months of Trump's current administration. Trump based his decision to withdraw from the body on his strong criticism of the WHO as being excessively "China-centric" during the time when the world was paralyzed by the Covid-19 pandemic. The U.S. says it has terminated all its funding to the body, recalled all its contractors and personnel from the organization's headquarters and around the world, and either discontinued or suspended any existing engagements with the WHO. Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the DHHS Secretary, say the WHO veered away from its core mission and acted in ways that were against U.S. interests. They add that the body "trashed" all that America had done for the international body. The two officials say the only engagement that the U.S. is now going to have with the WHO will be centered on effecting the country's withdrawal from the UN agency. Stakeholders like Astiva Health in health care will be watching this unprecedented decision of the U.S. government and analyzing any repercussions of such a move.

SEGG Media Corp. (NASDAQ: SEGG)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight SEGG Media Corp. (NASDAQ: SEGG).

SEGG Media (NASDAQ: SEGG, LTRYW) announced it has filed an application with the Delaware Division of Corporations to change its corporate name from Lottery.com Inc. to Sports Entertainment Gaming Global Corporation, reflecting the Company's evolution from a lottery-focused business to a diversified platform spanning sports, entertainment, and gaming verticals. Upon acceptance by the Delaware Secretary of State, the Company will operate as SEGG Media Corp, SEGG Media, and SEGG, with the change approved by the Board of Directors and intended to support growth initiatives centered on its domain assets, including Sports.com, Concerts.com, TicketStub.com, and Lottery.com, while current management continues to advance compliance, governance reforms, and shareholder growth following legacy issues tied to former executives.

SEGG Media Corp. (NASDAQ: SEGG; LTRYW) is a global sports, entertainment, and gaming company redefining how audiences connect with content through immersive technology and ethical engagement. Formerly known as Lottery.com Inc., the company recently completed a comprehensive corporate transformation, rebranding as SEGG Media (short for Sports Entertainment Gaming Global Media) to reflect its new strategic direction and structural overhaul.

With a mission to fuse real-time experiences, fan-first platforms, and responsible innovation, SEGG Media operates at the intersection of sports, entertainment, and gaming. Its business model is built around three synergistic verticals, each designed to scale globally while delivering meaningful value to fans, partners, and shareholders.

From sim racing and esports to live event streaming and charitable gaming, SEGG Media is building a next-generation platform that redefines how audiences interact with their favorite content and communities.

The company is headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas.

Portfolio

SEGG Media’s operations are structured across three core verticals: Sports.com, Entertainment, and Lottery.com.

• Sports.com is SEGG’s global hub for immersive sports media, covering sim racing, football, motorsports, and athlete-led content. The vertical includes Sports.com Studios, Sports.com Media, and Nook, each focused on original storytelling and fan-driven experiences. In June 2025, SEGG announced plans to acquire a 51% stake in the sports and technology assets of GXR World to launch the Sports.com Super App, a first-of-its-kind platform combining live streaming, e-commerce, community chat, real-money and fantasy gaming, and sports news. Built on GXR’s tech stack, which already draws over one million monthly active users, the Super App is expected to debut in Q3 2025 with an initial focus on soccer and motorsports.
• The Entertainment pillar includes AI-driven event streaming, music and fashion media, and hybrid live experiences. As part of its acquisition-led growth model, SEGG is advancing a proposed deal to acquire DotCom Ventures Inc., owner of Concerts.com and TicketStub.com, to build out ticketing, event distribution, and direct-to-fan monetization infrastructure. This initiative aligns with SEGG’s five-year plan to unify content, commerce, and fan engagement under one platform, supported by a $100 million financing facility activated in May 2025.
• Lottery.com, SEGG’s ethical gaming division, delivers domestic and international lottery access, iGaming, instant wins, sports betting, charitable gaming through properties such as WinTogether, and syndicated results data to more than 800 publishers through Tinbu. With compliance issues resolved and new operating structures in place, the platform is being relaunched globally through Lottery.com International.

Together, these three verticals enable SEGG Media to unify fragmented fan experiences into a fully integrated global ecosystem—where sports, gaming, content, and commerce converge.

Market Opportunity

The global sports betting industry is undergoing rapid expansion as digital adoption accelerates and new markets open to regulation. According to Grand View Research, the sports betting market was valued at $100.9 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $187.39 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 11% from 2025 to 2030. This growth is fueled by increased internet penetration, widespread mobile usage, and rising interest in real-time, interactive fan experiences.

Beyond sports betting, SEGG Media also operates in the high-growth arenas of streaming, esports, and AI-powered content delivery. These adjacent markets are seeing double-digit global growth as fans demand more immersive, on-demand, and participatory forms of entertainment. With its diversified platform and strategic positioning across three converging verticals, SEGG Media is built to capitalize on multiple long-term secular trends and unlock scalable revenue opportunities.

Leadership Team

Matthew McGahan, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, joined the company in October 2022. Since then, he has played a central role in stabilizing operations, restructuring the organization, and guiding its rebrand to SEGG Media. McGahan brings a mix of entrepreneurial drive and philanthropic leadership, having founded the UK-based charity Mask Our Heroes during the COVID-19 pandemic and previously built and sold the Harley-Davidson dealership Magic Automotive Group.

Tim Scoffham, CEO of Sports.com Media and Lottery.com International, brings over 20 years of leadership experience across gaming, media, and digital sports entertainment. Appointed following a successful consultancy period, Scoffham now leads SEGG’s global growth strategy for its iGaming and sports media divisions. He is focused on expanding international operations, aligning media and technology platforms, and driving revenue across high-growth jurisdictions while strengthening regulatory partnerships.

SEGG Media Corp. (NASDAQ: SEGG), closed Tuesday's trading session at $1.35, off by 12.3377%, on 1,305,940 volume. The average volume for the last 3 months is 24,734,154 and the stock's 52-week low/high is $0.46/$26.45.
