According to the latest data from TechNavio and the Fantasy Sports Trade Association, the growing popularity of the fantasy sports market will remain strong for the foreseeable future. With a 36.9 percent year-over-year growth in the player base to around 56.8 million as of 2015, buoyed by a projected CAGR of roughly 10.32 percent through 2019, fantasy sports are quickly becoming a major attraction in their own right. The demographics of the core market are also choice, with 66 percent of players being men, the average player age being 37, 57 percent of players possessing a college degree or higher, and more than 47 percent of the players having a household income in excess of $75,000 a year.

Another major contributing factor to the growth of the market is how, despite the continued spread of other types of gambling across the U.S., from casinos to lotteries, sports betting has continued to be isolated to either Las Vegas or niches like horse racing. Because fantasy sports exist in an area protected by Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 exemption, they are the perfect way for people to scratch the gambling itch and win big money, actually leveraging their knowledge of the players and their favorite sport in order to succeed, rather than merely trying to court Lady Luck. This factor is key to the rapid growth of fantasy sports, as it has opened up a massive, untapped small-stakes market for companies like FanDuel and DraftKings, which offer players the chance to draft a hypothetical team and compete against others online for big prizes, like the $2 million first-prize awarded at the fifth annual FanDuel Fantasy Football Championship earlier this year.

Always zealous NFL (National Football League) diehards are driving this booming industry and make up more than 73 percent of daily fantasy sports players. An ideal market to focus on, due to the fan’s insatiable demand for content, dedication to the sport, and willingness to spend. The action doesn’t stop at football either, every major sports league in the country has its own daily fantasy sports market, and with an average annual spend of around $465 per player, the aggregate space is now estimated to be worth an enticing $26.4 billion dollars.

Even tech and search giant Yahoo (NASDDAQ: YHOO) is getting into the game, with a bid to become one of the top providers of daily and one-week (where the fantasy season runs for a week rather than over the course of a single day) fantasy sports having been announced last month. Yahoo will reportedly start off with a focus on the largely underserved MLB (Major League Baseball) crowd, before advancing its own platform into other areas. Small-stakes plus big scale means potentially huge returns for companies who can successfully establish themselves in this thriving sector and that’s why Latitude 360, Inc. (OTCQB: LATX) – the owner/operator of a growing footprint of upscale 35,000 to 85,000 sq. ft. venues combining full service dining with an extremely wide variety of entertainment options that appeal to the largest number of consumers and corporate clients – is also putting down roots, with its recent partnership and pending acquisition of sector up-and-comer, Major League Fantasy (MLF) (www.playmlf.com).

Since launching in November last year, MLF has seen extraordinary growth, with numerous players flocking to the platform. Driven by the choice between daily, weekly, and full-season contests spanning every major sports category, the MLF player base is growing by leaps and bounds, making MLF a serious contender for becoming the top daily fantasy sports gaming network in the country. Recent partnership deals with NBA World Champs, the Oakland-based Golden State Warriors, a broader independent endorsement deal with top Warriors player Draymond Green, as well as a partnership agreement with star NFL wide receiver for the Atlanta Falcons, Julio Jones, are a major testament to how savvy LATX is when it comes to connecting with the fantasy sports gaming community. And the Jones agreement positions the company nicely for the roll out of its planned Latitude 360 locations in Alabama and Georgia.

The MLF acquisition makes Latitude 360 the first such operation to offer customers live, in-venue fantasy sports books, and the platform put together by MLF is sure to continue successfully winning over new players in the same manner that it has been. With a player base that more than tripled over May and June this year on the strength of tight social integration and a finely-crafted overall user experience, MLF is reckoned by many to be second to none in the space today.

This newest feature is but the latest attraction to find itself among Latitude 360’s “360 Experience” suite of offerings, available at the company’s award-winning multi-dimensional entertainment eateries. A suite of offerings which runs the gamut from full service dine-in movies and upscale casual dining with a full bar, to ultra-modern bowling lanes and ticket redemption interactive gaming. Also among the entertainment options at Latitude 360 are live local comedy acts, music and DJ’s, as well as luxury cigar lounges, a Las Vegas-style live entertainment theatre, and now the 360 Fantasy LIVE fantasy sports book.

360 Fantasy LIVE is a superb addition to an already compelling broad-spectrum entertainment venue approach, as it dovetails exceptionally well with the existing amenities, such as the numerous HD screens available in the bar areas, and the state-of-the-art HD Sports Theater, where fans can follow the latest action while enjoying full service dining options.

Harrison, Vickers & Waterman, Inc., following its April acquisition of Attitude Beer Holdings Co., recently shifted its business focus toward the rapidly expanding craft beer industry. The company’s new subsidiary specializes in the development of World of Beer franchised locations in the state of Connecticut, as well as the Greater Boston area. Together with New England World of Beer LLC, which currently holds franchise rights for the company’s target region, HVCW is utilizing an aggressive growth strategy in order to maximize its market presence. In addition to its 4,000 square foot tavern in West Hartford, Connecticut – which was opened in January – the company has announced plans for a pair of new World of Beer locations in Milford, Connecticut, and Greater Boston that are currently scheduled to begin construction in the coming months.

“These new locations for World of Beer taverns in Boston and Milford demonstrate our ongoing progress and the actions being taken to implement our joint venture with New England World of Beer,” Roy Warren, chief executive officer of HVCW, stated in a news release. “Our West Hartford location has proven to us that the enlarged tavern fare, along with the unique experience and wide variety of craft beer and other beverages, has a dominant place in this industry and is delivering sales and earnings beyond our expectations.”

When completed, HVCW will assume a 51 percent interest in the new World of Beer locations, while the company’s joint venture partner, New England World of Beer, will retain a 49 percent interest. Moving forward, this arrangement is expected to provide an opportunity to achieve considerable financial growth as the craft beer industry continues to expand.

According to the Brewers Association, the domestic craft beer industry – led by the performance of major market players such as Boston Beer (NYSE: SAM) and Craft Brew Alliance (NASDAQ: BREW) – has averaged annual growth of 10.9 percent over the last decade. In 2014, the industry accounted for approximately $19.6 billion in revenues, representing nearly 20 percent of the country’s total beer market.

For HVCW, this strong market performance could provide an excellent platform upon which to promote sustainable returns in the years to come. Look for the company to continue capitalizing on the expanding industry recognition of the World of Beer brand in order to stimulate continued market growth for the foreseeable future.

Comstock Resources is a growing independent energy company engaged in the acquisition, development, production and exploration of oil and natural gas properties. As of December 31, 2014, the company owned interests in nearly 1,600 producing wells with an estimated 620 BCFE in proven reserves. In recent months, the substantial decline of oil and natural gas prices has resulted in a considerable decline in revenues for the entire industry, with major players such as Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE: XOM) and Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX) reporting year-over-year earnings decreases of more than 50 percent for the first six months of 2015. However, Comstock’s strong production figures during the first half of the year – including approximately 1.96 million barrels of oil and 19.3 billion cubic feet of natural gas – continue to demonstrate the company’s immense growth potential when commodity prices begin to recover.

In 2014, Comstock’s Eagle Ford shale horizontal well drilling program in East Texas served as a driver for the company’s considerable production growth. In total, the company successfully increased its oil production figures by 86 percent, adding 5.1 million barrels of oil and 5 billion cubic feet of natural gas to its proven reserves. During the second quarter of 2015, Comstock prepared to build on this progress through the completion of four additional horizontal wells on the property, effectively increasing its production capacity ahead of forecast rises in oil and natural gas prices in the months to come.

In July, the company took steps toward securing the financial flexibility needed to continue developing its most promising properties. In particular, Comstock entered into a definitive purchase and sale agreement to sell its properties in and around Burleson County, Texas, for approximately $115 million. Upon closing, this transfer will provide the company with the fiscal means to fund additional drilling programs at its Eagle Ford property while maintaining the flexibility required to capitalize on additional strategic opportunities.

“This sale strengthens our balance sheet by providing us with an opportunity to further improve our liquidity during a period of low oil and natural gas prices,” M. Jay Allison, chief executive officer of Comstock, stated in a news release.

Despite less-than-favorable market conditions, Comstock has made strong progress in recent months toward preparing for future growth. Look for the company to continue focusing primarily on site development work moving forward, providing a strong platform upon which to capitalize on recovering commodity prices in the future.

While oil prices have hovered near six-year lows for the majority of 2015, ENGlobal Corporation (NASDAQ: ENG) has continued to leverage the considerable industry experience of its management team to promote strong financial results. Last week, the company demonstrated the versatility and marketability of its offerings when it announced that the second quarter of 2015 marked its sixth consecutive quarter of profitability.

“We are pleased to report today’s profitable results – which I’m proud to say represent six consecutive profitable quarters,” Mark Hess, chief financial officer of ENGlobal, stated in a news release. “ENGlobal’s profit margins remain respectable given the current environment, and our available capital has improved over the last year.”

In an effort to counteract the effects of slumping oil and gas prices, ENGlobal’s management expertly adjusted the margins of its engineering and construction operations in the second quarter. In addition to decreasing gross profit margin by 2.5 percent, as compared to the previous year, the company’s operating profit margin was reduced by 0.6 percent. These adjustments allowed ENGlobal to remain competitive in less-than-ideal market conditions, effectively promoting growth despite substantial industry limitations.

Following the release of its financial results for the second quarter, this strategy proved to be effective. For the period, ENGlobal achieved a mild year-over-year increase in total revenue for its engineering and construction segment, which serves a collection of energy sectors adversely affected by the recent fall in commodity prices. In an effort to capitalize on this progress, the company has recently turned its attention toward broadening its industry presence through the development of new partnerships and the exploration of potential acquisition candidates.

“ENGlobal’s response to the current energy marketplace has been to increase our efforts in developing new business,” stated William Coskey, P.E., chairman and chief executive officer of ENGlobal. “While we are excited about several new opportunities and client relationships that this internal process has produced, it also appears to be a great time to consider strategic acquisitions.”

According to the its latest financial report, the company has a healthy cash balance and working capital of approximately $25.4 million. Additionally, ENGlobal reports no borrowings under its current credit facility. The flexibility provided by this strong balance sheet will prove instrumental to the company’s growth efforts moving forward, particularly as related to any acquisition agreements that may be in the cards.

For prospective shareholders, ENGlobal’s financial performance despite slumping commodity prices is a promising indication of its market potential in the coming months. Look for the company to continue relying on the considerable expertise of its leadership team – which includes well over a century of combined industry experience – in order to continue successfully navigating prevailing market conditions and promoting sustained profitability for the foreseeable future.

Save the World Air, Inc. is enhancing its focus on improving operational efficiencies for the global energy infrastructure, and, in an effort to better reflect this updated strategy to potential clients and investors, has changed its name to QS Energy, Inc. (OTCQX: QSEP). Moving forward, the company will look to capitalize on the realignment currently impacting the energy sector by solidifying its position as a leading developer of technology for the efficient and safe transport of petroleum products.

“Our new corporate identity, QS Energy, Inc., and new stock symbol, QSEP, more effectively represent this exciting new phase of the company’s growth trajectory,” Greggory Bigger, chairman and chief executive officer of QS Energy, stated in a news release. “QS refers to ‘quick strike,’ a philosophy that has become fundamental to our strategy on both fronts as we move from the lab to the field with our existing product portfolio, and pursue accretive and synergistic acquisitions.”

QS Energy’s current portfolio includes two proprietary technology offerings aimed at the oil pipeline industry – Applied Oil Technology™ (AOT) and Joule Heat™. AOT is a patent-protected hardware system designed to reduce the viscosity of crude oil transported via pipeline. In extensive laboratory testing, AOT demonstrated a collection of benefits including increased flow rates, lower pump station power consumption and improved safety margins. The company’s second product, Joule Heat, is designed to increase the internal temperature of pipelines through the use of electric current. Unlike currently available trace heating systems, QS Energy’s groundbreaking system increases oil temperature uniformly without interrupting flow. The company continues to make great strides toward the impending commercialization of both products.

In addition to marketing its technology, QS Energy has initiated an aggressive mergers and acquisitions strategy designed to capitalize on the recent drop in oil prices. QS Energy Pool, the company’s special purpose vehicle, was created to identify and acquire drastically undervalued assets with overleveraged balance sheets and significant degrees of costly debt. Although these firms often have excellent producing assets and solid cash flow, low commodity prices have many of them unable to continue operations. QS Energy Pool will look to acquire these failing firms, providing an opportunity to realize immediate increases in revenue generation in the short-term.

“QS Energy’s dual growth strategy is to deploy its flow assurance solutions globally and to acquire undervalued operating companies, technologies and oil and gas assets,” continued Bigger. “Our [mergers and acquisitions] plan was enacted to provide income and revenue that is synergistic with our current operations.”

While many exploration and production firms are struggling to cope with slumping oil prices – including industry giants such as Chevron Corp (NYSE: CVX) and BP PLC (NYSE: BP) – QS Energy, through its revitalized growth strategy, is set to begin a new chapter. Look for the company to make accelerated progress toward the commercialization of its innovative product portfolio while supplementing shareholder value through the acquisition of complementary entities in the months to come.
