Management Commentary
"I am pleased to see continued sequential quarter over quarter revenue growth and scale across all parts of our business as we embark on our next chapter," said Company CEO Lou Schwartz. "The investments we made in our platform, strategic acquisitions we completed earlier in the year and the speed at which we integrated personnel and technology has contributed meaningfully to our performance. We look forward to leveraging the power of our technology platform, media footprint and the scale of our audience to support the recently announced planned merger between Torque Esports Corp., Frankly and WinView, Inc. to build the first 'integrated news, gaming, sports, and esports platform' called Engine Media. We believe this strategy will enable us to deliver engaging local, national, and global content, while creating new streams of revenue for our customers and an even stronger marketing platform for advertisers."
Other Matters
The Company voluntarily de-registered its common shares with the SEC on April 1, 2019. As a "reporting issuer" in Canada that is no longer an "SEC Issuer" under Canadian securities laws by virtue of having a class of securities registered with the SEC, the applicable generally acceptable accounting principles (GAAP) for the Company's financial statements is International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), rather than U.S. GAAP. The Company is in the process of transitioning to IFRS to meet this requirement but until the transition is complete, the Company has continued to present and file financial information using U.S. GAAP and has submitted an application for exemptive relief with Canadian securities regulatory authorities in order to be permitted to continue to present and file financial information using U.S. GAAP up to and including the third quarter of 2019. Until the exemptive relief is granted, or, if not granted, until the Company files financial statements presented using IFRS (and if applicable, audited in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards), the Company will be noted as in default of its filing obligations. Based on discussions with the applicable regulatory authorities, the Company does not currently anticipate any trading restrictions resulting from this notation. The Company will update the market upon any material changes with respect to or resulting from the application. The presentation of financial information using U.S. GAAP is consistent with financial reporting in prior periods, and the Company does not believe the financial information presented under U.S. GAAP is materially different than it would be as presented under IFRS.

Non-GAAP Measures
The Company reports earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute to net income (loss) or any other financial measures of performance or liquidity calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, adjusted to exclude certain non-cash charges and other items that we do not believe are reflective of our ongoing operating results. The Company utilizes Adjusted EBITDA internally for purposes of forecasting, determining compensation, and assessing the performance of our business, therefore, we believe this measure provides useful supplemental information that may assist investors in assessing an investment in the Company.
The following unaudited table presents the reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
