Overholt continued: “Our franchise agreements with global gaming publishers entitle us to a revenue share from each league, which we typically recognize in the back half of the year. We expect solid revenue growth for the rest of the year, with a continued focus on adding globally recognized brands as long-term partners and competing at the highest level in our respective leagues.
“We are also making important strides on our plan to build the premier sports and entertainment venue in North America, offering state-of-the-art technology and one of the most unique fan experiences in the world.”
Esports Insider says: OverActive Media revenue reflects its standing as a powerhouse in esports, and being publically traded will only help it to continue on its upward trajectory. The company now owns several top teams and has expanded its family to include Shalke 04’s LEC franchise spot. It will be interesting to see what OAM will do next.
