CEO Mark Newbauer provides the latest updates regarding the new 15c-211 Rule:

“As for trading as Pink Current Information- It was announced that on September 16, 2020, the SEC recently approved the proposed amendment to the 211 rule. (https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2020-212/) The rule became effective December 28, 2020.”

“Per an updated discussion with Issuer Services this week, they are having internal discussions toward deciding what, if any, procedures for companies trading in the Expert Market, like MIKP, will have available to become eligible for Pink Current Information Tier. We remain cautiously optimistic on the matter and standby with updated financials and information to post accordingly once there is more clarity on the matter.”

“In the meantime, we have what we feel will be an exciting opportunity for investors that we will announce details on in the coming weeks. Prior to that we expect to update shareholders with more great news on the operations side of the business.”

Forthcoming updates will detail newly acquired property/IP rights, strategic advisors, partnerships and the road ahead.

Industry Notes:

With people staying at home, over-the-top (OTT) video has seen global revenue surge by 26.0% in 2020. And it will keep rising strongly in the coming years, almost doubling in size from US$46.4bn in 2019 to US$86.8bn in 2024. The launch of the Disney+ streaming service in late 2019 could hardly have been better timed: having projected between 60mn and 90mn paying subscribers by 2024, Disney+ reached 60.5mn in early August 2020. Not surprisingly given the rise of streaming, global data consumption is another beneficiary of the digital acceleration powered by COVID-19. It will jump by 33.8% in 2020 and will more than double from 1.9 quadrillion megabytes (MB) in 2019 to 4.9 quadrillion MB in 2024.

Despite the inevitable downturn, there is a tremendous opportunity for content creators, producers and owners of media intellectual property rights We believe that significant opportunities lie ahead for us to exploit these trends toward newer media outlets which will include HBOMax, Disney+, Peacock, Apple TV+, Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, and others, in addition to traditional media outlets.
