Blackboxstocks Inc. (NASDAQ: BLBX) BREAKING NEWS: Blackboxstocks, Inc. Releases Shareholder Update – Blackboxstocks Inc. (“Blackbox”), a financial technology and social media hybrid platform offering real-time proprietary analytics for stock and options traders of all levels, today released a shareholder update.

 

Dear Shareholders, as we close the books on 2021, and the new year is upon us, I would like to recap some of the milestones that Blackbox achieved in 2021 and update you on initiatives we have in store for 2022. I have always been a firm believer in the adage “simplicity sells” and am also a fan of brevity whenever possible. So please consider this a brief, but comprehensive recap and update with the purpose of keeping our stakeholders informed until we file our Form-10K with the SEC in March.

 

On November 10, 2021, BLBX uplisted to the NASDAQ Capital Market exchange in conjunction with a $12,000,000 initial public offering providing Blackbox with significant working capital.  It also allowed our stock to trade on an exchange offering exposure to a broad group of investors and enhanced liquidity for our shareholders. The new surplus of working capital is a luxury that management has not had in the past. Since the inception of Blackbox, we have often operated under tight capital constraints that made the development of our product and scaling of our customer base extremely challenging. At the same time, we learned how to operate very effectively and efficiently. We are very thankful for the efficient machine that was spawned from the lean years at Blackbox.

 

We had a banner year in 2021!! We reported record revenue in the first three quarters of the year.  We also provided guidance for full year revenue for 2021 to be in a range between $5.94 and $5.98 million, 76-78% ahead of 2020. Revenue growth was driven by significant membership growth which grew to and surpassed the milestone of 6,000 paid subscribers in December 2021. While we are very proud of these achievements, it is important for our shareholders to understand that we have our sights set much higher. We believe we can improve on our current growth trajectory as well as continue to enhance the quality and scope of our product.

 

Currently, we are in the process of completing and implementing multiple new initiatives that we believe will enable us to substantially grow our subscriber base and revenue. We have built a brand that is known for its quality user experience and personalized customer service and we believe that these new initiatives will allow us to scale our platform without sacrificing the quality of our brand.

 

Blackbox is a community driven platform that leverages the power of our members in a team environment to create what I often refer to as “the best of man and machine!” We believe our powerful analytics are greatly enhanced by our community that interprets them. In 2022 we plan to augment this unique dynamic that has differentiated Blackbox from other trading tools and fintech platforms. Here are three near term initiatives that we are finalizing and implementing in order to start 2022 with a strong trajectory.   CONTINUED…  Read the Blackboxstocks full press release by going to:  https://blackboxstocks.com/press-releases/
