Management Commentary
Levy Cohen, CEO of Wellfield, commented, “This second fiscal quarter has marked a significant milestone in Coinmama’s ability to generate gross margins during a challenging market environment. With additional cost savings we expect to realize in the following quarters, Coinmama is now a strong and sustainable business that contributes meaningful gross margins as Wellfield prepares to launch new products and works toward profitability. Leveraging Coinmama’s large base of returning users and over 150,000 new user registrations during the calendar year, we anticipate that we have the customer base to quickly monetize Wellfield’s decentralized financial services and Ethereum based digital gold that will be launched to the public early next year.”
