LAS VEGAS, Nov. 30, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lingerie Fighting Championships, Inc. (“LFC”) (OTC Pink:BOTY) today issued the following announcement to its Shareholders.
To Our Shareholders,
This year has been a transformative year for Lingerie Fighting Championships, Inc. (the “Company”). Several managing partners were removed from decision-making roles in the first quarter due to their inability to provide promised funding. We secured funding to provide for the Company’s short term financial requirements by issuing convertible promissory notes to a limited number of investors. Recently, these investors initiated conversion of these convertible promissory notes into shares of the Company’s common stock, placing significant downward pressure on our share price. At the same time, the conversion of these convertible promissory notes has reduced our debt and resulted in a substantial increase in our stock’s liquidity. Previously, there was virtually no volume in the market for our shares. Last Friday, November 25, 2016, nearly 2.5 million shares exchanged hands.
On the operations side, the year has been very positive. Our television coverage has grown to more than 2,000 cable & satellite systems, we licensed to networks in Japan and France, held our first live event in Europe and launched a reality series on Tuff TV.
We have also achieved several new milestones. Previous to this year, the Company had never held more than one live event in a single calendar year. This year we held three; June 18 in Nice, California, October 29 in New Town, North Dakota and November 10 in Bratislava, Slovakia. In 2014, we often were required to pay upwards of $3,000 to rent venues to hold live events. In 2016, a venue paid LFC $35,000.
Also this year, we added two new key additions to our organization. Charles Connaughton was appointed as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Brad Kelly was appointed Sponsorship Director. Both bring a wealth of experience to their respective positions.
The Company expects to take another major step forward in 2017 as we have begun to receive significant interest from large national and international sponsors. We are close to finalizing television contracts in Brazil and South Korea, and we expect to host a minimum of four live events during the calendar year. In 2017, the Company will continue to build our brand through television and is poised to become the cultural force that many people believe it can become. We also plan to up-list our shares on the OTC Market from OTC Pink to the OTCQB.
Our management is appreciative and humbled by the support of our shareholders, fans and our people. We remain committed to protecting their interests. Our ultimate goal is to create long term shareholder value and I believe the Company is in the best position in its history to do so.
Respectfully,
Shaun Donnelly
Chief Executive Officer
