As of June 30, 2023, LGL had investments (classified within Cash and cash equivalents and Marketable securities) with a fair value of approximately $40.1 million, of which $22.9 million was held directly by Lynch Capital for the investment business.

In the second quarter, LGL Group transferred approximately $21.0 million of cash and cash equivalents to its wholly owned subsidiary, Lynch Capital International, LLC ("Lynch Capital"), as further development of the merchant investment segment. Marc Gabelli, Chairman and Co-CEO stated, “We have put in place the framework for LGL's continued growth in the merchant investment segment of our business.”

The Company management transition culminated as Michael Ferrantino resigned his executive position following the satisfactory conclusion of the second quarter, while remaining on the LGL Board of Directors. As part of this transition, LGL expanded its Board of Directors with two new independent Board members having prior corporate transactional experience who will also serve to expand the diversity of the Board of Directors.

Tim Foufas, a long-time LGL Board member, joins as Co-CEO along with Marc Gabelli, assuming the role vacated by Michael Ferrantino. Marc Gabelli, LGL Chairman stated, “We are delighted that both Ms. DeRemer and Mr. Francois have joined our board, and that Tim Foufas has moved into management. Darlene brings 35 years of experience in asset management and investment banking. Herve offers 20 plus years’ experience in technology investing as well as broad financial analysis acumen.” “The development of LGL opportunities for shareholder value creation has begun,” said Tim Foufas.
