Newgioco Establishes South America Subsidiary in Bogota, Columbia

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / February 18, 2020 / Newgioco Group, Inc. ("Newgioco" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:NWGI), a global sports betting and interactive gaming technology company providing fully integrated, omni-channel sports betting software solutions, is pleased to announce the formation of Newgioco Columbia SAS. The office and management team situated in Bogota, Columbia has been established to service the Company's expanding operations in Central and South America.

The opening of Newgioco Columbia coincides with the signing of several new distribution agreements in South America, establishing new partnerships with the goal of positioning the Company for new regulatory guidelines in South America and new gaming laws such as those being developing in Brazil. The recent contracts for the Company's virtual sports product are expected to fit ideally with the Company's recently announced collaboration with HBG Group for distribution of the Company's VG virtual games in Central America. Further, in connection with these and other contracts, the Company is now in the process of hiring regional experts to execute our Latam business plan and drive growth of our virtual sports product while positioning our sportsbook technology as regulations evolve in each country.

Through our fully integrated corporate structure, Newgioco seeks to leverage the talent of the Company's Odissea software development team to produce new, market-leading virtual games and product technology. The intended result is a sound, economically predictable virtual product that could potentially level out the risk profile of the sports bet vertical for our distributed retail and online partners and be suitable for casino sportsbook operators.

"The improved performance metrics of our latest generation virtual sports products have been developed to address an important value proposition for the sports betting business of casinos and private operators," stated Michele (Mike) Ciavarella, Newgioco Chief Executive Officer. "We believe that this essential differentiator could result in the rapid adoption and global growth of our virtual sports products while expanding the deployment of our ELYS sportsbook technology in the U.S. and global sports betting markets."

Capstone Distributor DV Energy Secures Repeat Order for Five C200S Microturbines for an Infrastructure Project from The Railways of Yakutia

VAN NUYS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / February 18, 2020 / Capstone Turbine Corporation (www.capstoneturbine.com) (NASDAQ:CPST), the world's leading clean technology manufacturer of microturbine energy systems, announced today it secured a repeat order for five C200 Signature Series microturbines for a federal railway infrastructure project from The Railways of Yakutia. DV Energy, Capstone's distributor in the Far Eastern Federal District in Russia, secured the 1.0 megawatt (MW) order, which is expected to be commissioned in November 2020.

"We continue to see growth in Europe and Russia as our business in those regions expanded 20% year-over-year," stated Darren Jamison, Capstone Turbine President, and Chief Executive Officer. "DV Energy is doing a great job representing Capstone in the Far Eastern Federal District and becomes a top 25 global distributor of ours with this most recent win," added Mr. Jamison.

The natural gas-fueled C200S microturbines will act as the primary power source for the Aldan Railway Station and provide heating for the main building, reducing its operational costs and eliminating the uncertainty of grid fluctuations. The microturbine will operate in grid connect mode, which enables the customer to operate with the utility in a load sharing capacity.

In addition to generating on-site power and heating, the microturbines will help railway operators meet key strategic sustainability targets for increased energy efficiency. Capstone Turbine's innovative technology was selected for its scalability, resiliency, and ability to reduce energy costs while producing ultra-low emissions reliably.

The Russian railway system is the third-longest rail network in the world, with more than 85,000 kilometers (52,800 miles). The rail system is the primary mode of transportation in Russia, accounting for about 88% of the country's transportation system. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the International Union of Railways, the Russian Railways is one of the most energy-efficient railway companies in the world.

"Russia, with its harsh environments, has historically been a very good market for us and currently has over 1,400 units in operation in the region," stated Jen Derstine, Capstone's Vice President of Marketing and Distribution. "We are seeing steady sales growth in Russia as we continue to diversify and expand our focus on combined heat and power (CHP) projects from predominantly oil and gas applications. Russia holds a tremendous opportunity for distributed generation technologies," concluded Ms. Derstine.

About Capstone Turbine Corporation

Capstone Turbine Corporation (www.capstoneturbine.com) (NASDAQ:CPST) is the world's leading producer of highly efficient, low-emission, resilient microturbine energy systems. Capstone microturbines serve multiple vertical markets worldwide, including natural resources, energy efficiency, renewable energy, critical power supply, transportation, and microgrids. Capstone offers a comprehensive product lineup, providing scalable systems focusing on 30 kWs to 10 MWs that operate on a variety of gaseous or liquid fuels and are the ideal solution for today's distributed power generation needs. To date, Capstone has shipped over 9,000 units to 73 countries, and in FY19 saved customers an estimated $253 million in annual energy costs and 350,000 tons of carbon.

Concierge Technologies Reports Fiscal Second Quarter Financial Results

– Strategic Initiatives to Drive Diversification and Long-Term Shareholder Value –

– Balance Sheet Remains Strong, with Essentially No Debt –

SAN CLEMENTE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / February 18, 2020 / Concierge Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB:CNCG), a diversified global holding firm, today announced financial results for the second fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2019.

"Results for the quarter were in line with expectations, as we continued to invest in growth initiatives for each of our core business segments," said Nicholas Gerber, chairman and chief executive officer.

"In financial services, progress was made during the quarter developing a new fintech product that we expect to launch this spring under the name, ‘Marygold'. Our hair and skin care company completed the development of a new, branded line of vegan haircare products, ‘Worry Free,' and subsequent to the end of the second quarter launched the line at a large national retailer, representing entry into a new channel for us. We also built a solid backlog for our Brigadier Security business, and in alignment with our strategic growth initiatives, we continued to explore acquisition targets.

"Concierge Technologies has had excellent growth since its formation as a holding company, just five years ago," added Gerber. "We are staying true to our mission of not being reliant on any one business or sector by building a profitable, diverse organization through organic growth, acquisitions and new ventures, and creating tangible long-term value for all of our stakeholders."

For the three months ended December 31, 2019, revenues were $5.8 million, compared with $6.7 million for the prior year. Net loss for the most recent three-month period amounted to $74,914, equal to break-even per share, versus income of $88,518, also equal to break-even per share, for the comparable prior year period.

Results for the fiscal 2020 second quarter, as anticipated, were impacted primarily by lower assets under management (AUM) at the company's USCF Investments fund management subsidiary as compared to the prior year. USCF Investments manages nine commodity-oriented and two equity exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, currently with approximately $2.2 billion in assets under management.

The company's Other business segment, which comprised approximately 51 percent of total revenues in the most recent second quarter vs 41 percent of total revenues in last year's second quarter, achieved a 7% improvement in revenues for the fiscal 2020 period. The Other segment is comprised of Gourmet Foods, Brigadier Security Systems and Original Sprout.

Concierge's balance sheet further strengthened at the end of the second fiscal quarter. Cash and cash equivalents remained steady at approximately $6.5 million, after the cash investment in our the new fintech venture and payment of annual employee incentive rewards at the subsidiary level. Total stockholders' equity increased to $17.5 million at December 31, 2019 from $17.2 million at June 30, 2019. The company has essentially no debt.

"Operating results for USCF held fairly steady throughout the second quarter," said Stuart Crumbaugh, chief financial officer of Concierge Technologies. "We believe the downward trend cycle in assets under management is coming to an end, with the eventual up-swing anticipated as the historical nature of commodities in general would suggest. Regardless, our business model operates well in fluctuating markets, since many of our expenses are variable in nature and move in concert with revenues to sustain profitability at lower levels of AUM."

"Our ‘Other' operating units had a productive quarter despite some one-time expenses," said David Neibert, Concierge Technologies' Chief Operations Officer. "Original Sprout successfully made the transition to nationwide retail distribution for their new ‘Worry Free' line of hair care products, and Gourmet Foods had a near-record holiday season of sales. Brigadier Security Systems was seasonally hampered by frigid cold in Saskatoon, which, in turn, helped build a solid backlog for the next quarter. Our Other operating units were all cash flow positive, and we only posted a small net loss on a consolidated basis, due, in part, to non-cash expenses, including $150,000 in depreciation expense for the quarter," Neibert said.

Business Units

Gourmet Foods, https://gourmetfoodsltd.co.nz/, acquired in August 2015, is a commercial-scale bakery that produces and distributes iconic meat pies and pastries throughout New Zealand under the brand names Pat's Pantry and Ponsonby Pies.
