(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021. The core business of Code Red showed strong sequential results as the influencer component of the business posted quarterly revenue of $714,808, a sequential increase of 57% over Q1 FY2021 revenue, and talent management revenue grew to $202,571, an increase of over 15% compared to Q1 FY2021.\n\n\n\n\n\nThree months ended\nThree months ended\nSix months ended\nSix months ended\n\n\n($ Canadian) \nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\n\n\n\nRevenues\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTalent management service\n$\n 202,571\n\n$\n-\n\n$\n 378,356\n\n$\n-\n\n\n\n\nInfluencer promotional fees\n\n714,808\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,170,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nConsulting fees\n\n88,520\n\n\n-\n\n\n501,955\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nPrize income and player revenue\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nProduction revenue\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal Revenues\n\n1,106,816\n\n\n-\n\n\n2,152,071\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCost of sales\n\n835,535\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,761,770\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGross profit\n\n271,281\n\n\n-\n\n\n390,301\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInterest income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal other income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExpenses\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConsulting and management fees\n\n1,319,870\n\n\n102,419\n\n\n1,844,082\n\n\n186,632\n\n\n\n\nProfessional fees\n\n369,885\n\n\n26,310\n\n\n420,051\n\n\n33,810\n\n\n\n\nGeneral office expenses\n\n392,946\n\n\n1,294\n\n\n466,710\n\n\n2,258\n\n\n\n\nTravel expenses\n\n122,582\n\n\n-\n\n\n122,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShareholder communications and filing fees\n\n65,228\n\n\n8,865\n\n\n121,899\n\n\n10,000\n\n\n\n\nInterest expense\n\n2,418\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n2,452\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n\n\nBad debt expense\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nForeign exchange loss\n\n(26,154\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(4,740\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nChange in provision for reclamation deposit\n\n-\n\n\n-\n\n\n(95,288\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShare-based compensation\n\n664,961\n\n\n-\n\n\n758,310\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nTransaction costs\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nAmortization\n\n724,637\n\n\n-\n\n\n848,141\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal expenses\n\n12,836,344\n\n\n144,661\n\n\n13,684,431\n\n\n238,473\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period before income taxes\n\n(12,564,527\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,293,167\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nIncome tax (recovery)\n\n(186,285\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(225,329\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period\n\n(12,378,242\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,067,838\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther comprehensive income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nItems that will subsequently be reclassified to operations:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nForeign currency translation\n\n(337,283\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(220,664\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal comprehensive loss for the period\n$\n (12,715,525\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,288,502\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(Loss) profit for the period attributable to:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOwners of the parent\n\n(12,383,998\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,073,594\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nNon-controlling interest\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n$\n (12,378,242\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,067,838\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nBasic and diluted net loss per share\n$\n (0.12\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n$\n (0.16\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWeighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic and diluted\n\n106,555,112\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n79,659,921\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConference Call Details\nCEO Justin Kenna and President Kevin Wright are scheduled to host a conference call for the investment community to discuss the financial results for the three months ended May 31, 2021.

Colson; and</li>\n <li>Appointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.</li>\n</ul>\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n<ul>\n <li>Acquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;</li>\n <li>Closed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;</li>\n <li>Closed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;</li>\n <li>As at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;</li>\n <li>Completed the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;</li>\n <li>Appointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.</li>\n</ul>\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&amp;A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021. The core business of Code Red showed strong sequential results as the influencer component of the business posted quarterly revenue of $714,808, a sequential increase of 57% over Q1 FY2021 revenue, and talent management revenue grew to $202,571, an increase of over 15% compared to Q1 FY2021.\n\n\n\n\n\nThree months ended\nThree months ended\nSix months ended\nSix months ended\n\n\n($ Canadian) \nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\n\n\n\nRevenues\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTalent management service\n$\n 202,571\n\n$\n-\n\n$\n 378,356\n\n$\n-\n\n\n\n\nInfluencer promotional fees\n\n714,808\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,170,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nConsulting fees\n\n88,520\n\n\n-\n\n\n501,955\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nPrize income and player revenue\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nProduction revenue\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal Revenues\n\n1,106,816\n\n\n-\n\n\n2,152,071\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCost of sales\n\n835,535\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,761,770\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGross profit\n\n271,281\n\n\n-\n\n\n390,301\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInterest income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal other income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExpenses\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConsulting and management fees\n\n1,319,870\n\n\n102,419\n\n\n1,844,082\n\n\n186,632\n\n\n\n\nProfessional fees\n\n369,885\n\n\n26,310\n\n\n420,051\n\n\n33,810\n\n\n\n\nGeneral office expenses\n\n392,946\n\n\n1,294\n\n\n466,710\n\n\n2,258\n\n\n\n\nTravel expenses\n\n122,582\n\n\n-\n\n\n122,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShareholder communications and filing fees\n\n65,228\n\n\n8,865\n\n\n121,899\n\n\n10,000\n\n\n\n\nInterest expense\n\n2,418\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n2,452\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n\n\nBad debt expense\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nForeign exchange loss\n\n(26,154\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(4,740\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nChange in provision for reclamation deposit\n\n-\n\n\n-\n\n\n(95,288\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShare-based compensation\n\n664,961\n\n\n-\n\n\n758,310\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nTransaction costs\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nAmortization\n\n724,637\n\n\n-\n\n\n848,141\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal expenses\n\n12,836,344\n\n\n144,661\n\n\n13,684,431\n\n\n238,473\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period before income taxes\n\n(12,564,527\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,293,167\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nIncome tax (recovery)\n\n(186,285\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(225,329\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period\n\n(12,378,242\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,067,838\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther comprehensive income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nItems that will subsequently be reclassified to operations:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nForeign currency translation\n\n(337,283\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(220,664\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal comprehensive loss for the period\n$\n (12,715,525\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,288,502\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(Loss) profit for the period attributable to:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOwners of the parent\n\n(12,383,998\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,073,594\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nNon-controlling interest\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n$\n (12,378,242\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,067,838\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nBasic and diluted net loss per share\n$\n (0.12\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n$\n (0.16\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWeighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic and diluted\n\n106,555,112\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n79,659,921\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConference Call Details\nCEO Justin Kenna and President Kevin Wright are scheduled to host a conference call for the investment community to discuss the financial results for the three months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion &amp; Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n<ul>\n <li>GameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;</li>\n <li>Ended the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;</li>\n <li>Closed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;</li>\n <li>Closed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;</li>\n <li>Announced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;</li>\n <li>Named Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;</li>\n <li>Announced the passing of board member, Maurice J.

In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion &amp; Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n<ul>\n <li>GameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;</li>\n <li>Ended the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;</li>\n <li>Closed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;</li>\n <li>Closed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;</li>\n <li>Announced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;</li>\n <li>Named Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;</li>\n <li>Announced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and</li>\n <li>Appointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.</li>\n</ul>\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n<ul>\n <li>Acquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;</li>\n <li>Closed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;</li>\n <li>Closed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;</li>\n <li>As at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;</li>\n <li>Completed the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;</li>\n <li>Appointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.</li>\n</ul>\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&amp;A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021. The core business of Code Red showed strong sequential results as the influencer component of the business posted quarterly revenue of $714,808, a sequential increase of 57% over Q1 FY2021 revenue, and talent management revenue grew to $202,571, an increase of over 15% compared to Q1 FY2021.\n\n\n\n\n\nThree months ended\nThree months ended\nSix months ended\nSix months ended\n\n\n($ Canadian) \nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\n\n\n\nRevenues\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTalent management service\n$\n 202,571\n\n$\n-\n\n$\n 378,356\n\n$\n-\n\n\n\n\nInfluencer promotional fees\n\n714,808\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,170,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nConsulting fees\n\n88,520\n\n\n-\n\n\n501,955\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nPrize income and player revenue\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nProduction revenue\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal Revenues\n\n1,106,816\n\n\n-\n\n\n2,152,071\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCost of sales\n\n835,535\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,761,770\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGross profit\n\n271,281\n\n\n-\n\n\n390,301\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInterest income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal other income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExpenses\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConsulting and management fees\n\n1,319,870\n\n\n102,419\n\n\n1,844,082\n\n\n186,632\n\n\n\n\nProfessional fees\n\n369,885\n\n\n26,310\n\n\n420,051\n\n\n33,810\n\n\n\n\nGeneral office expenses\n\n392,946\n\n\n1,294\n\n\n466,710\n\n\n2,258\n\n\n\n\nTravel expenses\n\n122,582\n\n\n-\n\n\n122,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShareholder communications and filing fees\n\n65,228\n\n\n8,865\n\n\n121,899\n\n\n10,000\n\n\n\n\nInterest expense\n\n2,418\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n2,452\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n\n\nBad debt expense\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nForeign exchange loss\n\n(26,154\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(4,740\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nChange in provision for reclamation deposit\n\n-\n\n\n-\n\n\n(95,288\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShare-based compensation\n\n664,961\n\n\n-\n\n\n758,310\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nTransaction costs\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nAmortization\n\n724,637\n\n\n-\n\n\n848,141\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal expenses\n\n12,836,344\n\n\n144,661\n\n\n13,684,431\n\n\n238,473\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period before income taxes\n\n(12,564,527\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,293,167\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nIncome tax (recovery)\n\n(186,285\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(225,329\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period\n\n(12,378,242\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,067,838\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther comprehensive income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nItems that will subsequently be reclassified to operations:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nForeign currency translation\n\n(337,283\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(220,664\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal comprehensive loss for the period\n$\n (12,715,525\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,288,502\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(Loss) profit for the period attributable to:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOwners of the parent\n\n(12,383,998\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,073,594\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nNon-controlling interest\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n$\n (12,378,242\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,067,838\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nBasic and diluted net loss per share\n$\n (0.12\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n$\n (0.16\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWeighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic and diluted\n\n106,555,112\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n79,659,921\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConference Call Details\nCEO Justin Kenna and President Kevin Wright are scheduled to host a conference call for the investment community to discuss the financial results for the three months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquar","content":"TORONTO, July 28, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GameSquare Esports Inc. (CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion &amp; Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n<ul>\n <li>GameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;</li>\n <li>Ended the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;</li>\n <li>Closed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;</li>\n <li>Closed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;</li>\n <li>Announced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;</li>\n <li>Named Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;</li>\n <li>Announced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and</li>\n <li>Appointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.</li>\n</ul>\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n<ul>\n <li>Acquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;</li>\n <li>Closed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;</li>\n <li>Closed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;</li>\n <li>As at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;</li>\n <li>Completed the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;</li>\n <li>Appointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.</li>\n</ul>\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&amp;A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021. The core business of Code Red showed strong sequential results as the influencer component of the business posted quarterly revenue of $714,808, a sequential increase of 57% over Q1 FY2021 revenue, and talent management revenue grew to $202,571, an increase of over 15% compared to Q1 FY2021.\n<table>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <td></td>\n <td></td>\n <td colspan=\"3\">Three months ended</td>\n <td

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021. The core business of Code Red showed strong sequential results as the influencer component of the business posted quarterly revenue of $714,808, a sequential increase of 57% over Q1 FY2021 revenue, and talent management revenue grew to $202,571, an increase of over 15% compared to Q1 FY2021.\n\n\n\n\n\nThree months ended\nThree months ended\nSix months ended\nSix months ended\n\n\n($ Canadian) \nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\n\n\n\nRevenues\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTalent management service\n$\n 202,571\n\n$\n-\n\n$\n 378,356\n\n$\n-\n\n\n\n\nInfluencer promotional fees\n\n714,808\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,170,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nConsulting fees\n\n88,520\n\n\n-\n\n\n501,955\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nPrize income and player revenue\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nProduction revenue\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal Revenues\n\n1,106,816\n\n\n-\n\n\n2,152,071\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCost of sales\n\n835,535\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,761,770\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGross profit\n\n271,281\n\n\n-\n\n\n390,301\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInterest income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal other income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExpenses\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConsulting and management fees\n\n1,319,870\n\n\n102,419\n\n\n1,844,082\n\n\n186,632\n\n\n\n\nProfessional fees\n\n369,885\n\n\n26,310\n\n\n420,051\n\n\n33,810\n\n\n\n\nGeneral office expenses\n\n392,946\n\n\n1,294\n\n\n466,710\n\n\n2,258\n\n\n\n\nTravel expenses\n\n122,582\n\n\n-\n\n\n122,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShareholder communications and filing fees\n\n65,228\n\n\n8,865\n\n\n121,899\n\n\n10,000\n\n\n\n\nInterest expense\n\n2,418\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n2,452\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n\n\nBad debt expense\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nForeign exchange loss\n\n(26,154\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(4,740\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nChange in provision for reclamation deposit\n\n-\n\n\n-\n\n\n(95,288\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShare-based compensation\n\n664,961\n\n\n-\n\n\n758,310\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nTransaction costs\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nAmortization\n\n724,637\n\n\n-\n\n\n848,141\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal expenses\n\n12,836,344\n\n\n144,661\n\n\n13,684,431\n\n\n238,473\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period before income taxes\n\n(12,564,527\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,293,167\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nIncome tax (recovery)\n\n(186,285\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(225,329\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period\n\n(12,378,242\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,067,838\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther comprehensive income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nItems that will subsequently be reclassified to operations:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nForeign currency translation\n\n(337,283\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(220,664\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal comprehensive loss for the period\n$\n (12,715,525\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,288,502\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(Loss) profit for the period attributable to:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOwners of the parent\n\n(12,383,998\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,073,594\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nNon-controlling interest\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n$\n (12,378,242\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,067,838\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nBasic and diluted net loss per share\n$\n (0.12\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n$\n (0.16\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWeighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic and diluted\n\n106,555,112\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n79,659,921\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConference Call Details\nCEO Justin Kenna and President Kevin Wright are scheduled to host a conference call for the investment community to discuss the financial results for the three months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion &amp; Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n<ul>\n <li>GameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;</li>\n <li>Ended the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;</li>\n <li>Closed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;</li>\n <li>Closed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;</li>\n <li>Announced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;</li>\n <li>Named Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;</li>\n <li>Announced the passing of board member, Maurice J.

(dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;</li>\n <li>Closed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;</li>\n <li>Closed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;</li>\n <li>As at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;</li>\n <li>Completed the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;</li>\n <li>Appointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.</li>\n</ul>\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&amp;A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion &amp; Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n<ul>\n <li>GameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;</li>\n <li>Ended the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;</li>\n <li>Closed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;</li>\n <li>Closed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;</li>\n <li>Announced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;</li>\n <li>Named Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;</li>\n <li>Announced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and</li>\n <li>Appointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.</li>\n</ul>\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n<ul>\n <li>Acquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;</li>\n <li>Closed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;</li>\n <li>Closed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;</li>\n <li>As at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;</li>\n <li>Completed the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;</li>\n <li>Appointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.</li>\n</ul>\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&amp;A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021.

(CSE: GSQ; FRA: 29Q1) (“GameSquare”, “GameSquare Esports” or the “Company”), an international gaming and esports company, today announced its results for the second quarter ended May 31, 2021 (all amounts in CDN dollars, unless otherwise indicated). The Company has scheduled a conference call to discuss its Q2 FY2021 financial results and provide a business update on July 29, 2021, at 8:00am ET (5:00am PT). A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three and six-months ended May 31, 2021 are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under GameSquare’s profile.\nQ2 FY2021 Highlights\n\nGameSquare reported revenue of $1.1 million as Code Red’s influencer vertical had another strong quarter, and was up nearly 60% from Q1 FY2021, while talent management revenue grew by 15% versus Q1 FY2021;\nEnded the quarter with $4.3 million of cash on hand;\nClosed an upsized $7.0 million bought deal private placement in March;\nClosed the acquisition of Reciprocity, which includes earn outs for performance of up to US$7 million of revenue and US$1.4 million of EBITDA in the 12 months following the closing of the transaction;\nAnnounced select customer wins including production of the largest NCAA esports tournament with Van Wagner, The Drew League, and Dexerto;\nNamed Tony Hawk and Jordan Belfort as advisors to the Company;\nAnnounced the passing of board member, Maurice J. Colson; and\nAppointed Paul LeBreux to the Board of Directors.\n\nSubsequent Events to Quarter End\n\nAcquired 100% of NextGen Tech, LLC. (dba. as Complexity Gaming) (“Complexity”), a leading esports organization and one of only four esports organizations to have an exclusive partnership with Twitch;\nClosed a private placement for US$7.0 million, which was subscribed to and filled by the Jerry Jones family and Goff Capital, the former majority shareholders of Complexity;\nClosed a bought deal financing of $8.5 million led by Canaccord Genuity, Eight Capital, Haywood Securities and Echelon Wealth Partners;\nAs at July 26, 2021, the Company had a record cash balance of nearly $15 million;\nCompleted the acquisition of Swingman LLC (dba. Cut+Sew and Zoned) (“Cut+Sew/Zoned”), a digital lifestyle marketing agency;\nAppointed Paradigm Sports to GameSquare’s advisory board.\n\nManagement Comments and Outlook\n“Code Red, our esports agency, had another strong quarter, with its ongoing focus on the influencer segment leading to growth of 57% over Q1 FY2021, and its talent management business growing more than15% versus the prior quarter,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. “We made rapid progress on our acquisition strategy in Q2 and into Q3. In Q2, we closed the Reciprocity acquisition and have focused on integration and advancing substantial commercial opportunities. The strength of our balance sheet and rapidly expanding platform capabilities has given large customers like Van Wagner the confidence to award us major contracts, including the production of the largest NCAA esports tournament. We expect these internal media, content and execution capabilities to accelerate the monetization of our recently acquired Complexity unit, an outstanding team-based organization.”\n“The acquisition of Complexity post quarter-end is transformational for GameSquare,” added Mr. Kenna. “Adding the Jones and Goff families as major investors and signing an agency of record deal with the Dallas Cowboys is an incredible milestone for GameSquare. As a top tier organization with a world-class CS:GO team, Complexity is a media entity unto itself, generating more than 3.2 billion viewer minutes annually with 3.4 million monthly active unique visitors. While the team is world-class, we are only starting to monetize Complexity’s tremendous potential. We believe that the outstanding talent at Code Red, GCN, and Cut+Sew/Zoned, our most recent acquisition, are equipped to accelerate our business objectives of revenue growth and profitability.”\n“Since going public in October 2020, we have successfully sourced, financed, purchased, and integrated accretive businesses,” said Kevin Wright, President of GameSquare. “We have acquired outstanding strategic assets that position us to capitalize on the accelerating growth of esports audiences. We are confident that we have the right mix of businesses and people to be a leader in bridging the gap between global brands and the massive esports audience through our unique blend of digital agency and team-based assets. With a record cash balance of nearly $15 million as of July 2021, we have the capability to invest in the monetization of our core asset portfolio. For the remainder of 2021, our focus will be on operational execution within our portfolio of companies. However, we will continue to look for opportunistic M&A of great companies that operate in the digital agency vertical or are complementary to what we view as one of the most attractive areas of the esports ecosystem.”\nFinancial Review\nGameSquare’s revenues were $1,106,816 for the three months ended May 31, 2021, and $2,152,071 for the six months ended May 31, 2021. The core business of Code Red showed strong sequential results as the influencer component of the business posted quarterly revenue of $714,808, a sequential increase of 57% over Q1 FY2021 revenue, and talent management revenue grew to $202,571, an increase of over 15% compared to Q1 FY2021.\n\n\n\n\n\nThree months ended\nThree months ended\nSix months ended\nSix months ended\n\n\n($ Canadian) \nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\nMay 31, 2021\nMay 31, 2020\n\n\n\nRevenues\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTalent management service\n$\n 202,571\n\n$\n-\n\n$\n 378,356\n\n$\n-\n\n\n\n\nInfluencer promotional fees\n\n714,808\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,170,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nConsulting fees\n\n88,520\n\n\n-\n\n\n501,955\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nPrize income and player revenue\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n86,886\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nProduction revenue\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n14,031\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal Revenues\n\n1,106,816\n\n\n-\n\n\n2,152,071\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCost of sales\n\n835,535\n\n\n-\n\n\n1,761,770\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGross profit\n\n271,281\n\n\n-\n\n\n390,301\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInterest income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal other income\n\n536\n\n\n-\n\n\n963\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExpenses\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConsulting and management fees\n\n1,319,870\n\n\n102,419\n\n\n1,844,082\n\n\n186,632\n\n\n\n\nProfessional fees\n\n369,885\n\n\n26,310\n\n\n420,051\n\n\n33,810\n\n\n\n\nGeneral office expenses\n\n392,946\n\n\n1,294\n\n\n466,710\n\n\n2,258\n\n\n\n\nTravel expenses\n\n122,582\n\n\n-\n\n\n122,843\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShareholder communications and filing fees\n\n65,228\n\n\n8,865\n\n\n121,899\n\n\n10,000\n\n\n\n\nInterest expense\n\n2,418\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n2,452\n\n\n5,773\n\n\n\n\nBad debt expense\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n58,151\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nForeign exchange loss\n\n(26,154\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(4,740\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nChange in provision for reclamation deposit\n\n-\n\n\n-\n\n\n(95,288\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nShare-based compensation\n\n664,961\n\n\n-\n\n\n758,310\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nTransaction costs\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n9,141,820\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nAmortization\n\n724,637\n\n\n-\n\n\n848,141\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal expenses\n\n12,836,344\n\n\n144,661\n\n\n13,684,431\n\n\n238,473\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period before income taxes\n\n(12,564,527\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,293,167\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nIncome tax (recovery)\n\n(186,285\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(225,329\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\nLoss for the period\n\n(12,378,242\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,067,838\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther comprehensive income\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nItems that will subsequently be reclassified to operations:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nForeign currency translation\n\n(337,283\n)\n\n-\n\n\n(220,664\n)\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTotal comprehensive loss for the period\n$\n (12,715,525\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,288,502\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(Loss) profit for the period attributable to:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOwners of the parent\n\n(12,383,998\n)\n\n(144,661\n)\n\n(13,073,594\n)\n\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nNon-controlling interest\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n5,756\n\n\n-\n\n\n\n\n\n$\n (12,378,242\n)\n$\n(144,661\n)\n$\n (13,067,838\n)\n$\n(238,473\n)\n\n\n\nBasic and diluted net loss per share\n$\n (0.12\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n$\n (0.16\n)\n$\n(0.01\n)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWeighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic and diluted\n\n106,555,112\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n79,659,921\n\n\n20,000,000\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConference Call Details\nCEO Justin Kenna and President Kevin Wright are scheduled to host a conference call for the investment community to discuss the financial results for the three months ended May 31, 2021.
