-------------------------------------------
Backstory

SFLMaven is a "beyond well-established" [company's description] jewelry business which has operated successfully on eBay since June 2003 - 18+ years.

It effectively went public when acquired by the former ticker $SKDI in October 2020.

At the same time, $SKDI divested itself of Hakuna [sold as a going concern for $350K] and Numuni [which will now repay monies advanced to it in a note to $SFLM for $200K].

CEO of SFLMaven became CEO of $SKDI wef October 12, 2020.

Significant further information about the success to date of SFLMaven and plans ahead have been given in 10 x videos to date [see links below].

The CEO has confirmed that there will be no reverse stock split and that the company has a very tight public float.

On / around February 18, 2021 the company applied for a name change of the then current ticker $SKDI to "SFLMaven" and a ticker change - approval was expected by mid-April but was completed over 2 weeks early.

The name "SFLMaven" and ticker "SFLM" came into effect March 30, 2021.

The name and ticker change went through extremely quickly as FINRA requested all filings going right the way back to initial incorporation in 1980 and the company's very professional back office was able to provide it within 30 minutes. [source: 3rd video]

$SFLM is now re-focused on a serious revenue generating business and - having divested itself of non-core businesses - is set to deliver shareholder value.

SFLMaven has now retained a professional Investor Relations company [source: 3rd video].

SFLMaven has now also retained a brand building Public Relations company [source: PR dated May 11, 2021].

SFLMaven now also sells at 1stDIBS [source: Twitter July 8, 2021]
---------------------------------------------------
Future Intent

- Revamp Corporate image.

- Increase exposure in luxury markets as a whole.

- Increase inventory to increase sales volume.

- Increase in revenue of 30% in 2021 over that of 2020 - already on track for over 50%.

- Build out own professional on-line retail site - already being worked on [source: 3rd video].

- Start holding investor events as soon as permitted [source: 3rd video].

- Increase shareholder trust by delivering dependable growth month after month and Q after Q.

- Deliver "fantastic shareholder value".

- Emphasize differentiation from other OTC companies - get the word out that it is an undervalued "diamond in the rough" that already keeps cranking out $Ms in revenue month over month [source: 4th video].

- Diversify over more platforms [source: 4th video].

- Start a Non-Frangible Token (NFT) Division [source: 9th video and PRs September 21 and 23]

- Develop a Collectibles Marketplace strategy by acquiring around 7 x collectible companies - and grow using proven business model - to same revenue level as original SFLMaven - see more detail in specific section below [source: 9th video and PR September 21]
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key Extracts - Company Shareholder Presentation - June 2021 Version

Corporate Overview

- SFLMaven is a premium provider of high-end jewelry through its top rated eBay store.

- Over $130M in sales since 2003.

- 99.9% Positive Feedback - over 98,000 [now 100,000+] positive reviews since inception.

- An Elite eBay Store: prestigious "Top Rated Seller" badge with established eBay corporate relationships - known for its "Famous Thursday Night Auctions".

- Robust Financial Profile: $2.7M in sales in Q1 2021 alone.

- Demand Inelastic Industry: given vast demand and efficient nature of "no reserve" auctions, supply is the only constraint - "if you list it, they will come".

- Proprietary Dealer Network: significant competitive advantage from
trusted dealer network that procures pre-owned items from consumers.

- Revenue Growth Drivers: improved capitalization as public company
expected to drive increasingly large weekly auctions.

- Strong Macroeconomic Tailwinds: operates at intersection of the growing jewelry and E-commerce markets, benefitting from recovering economy.

Jewelry Market Opportunity

- Refer to the Company Shareholder Presentation for detail [link below].

E-commerce Market

- Refer to the Company Shareholder Presentation for detail [link below].

SFLMaven brings these two profitable markets together on eBay - the world’s largest auction marketplace.

In 2019, about 65% of gross merchandising value came from repeat sellers.

Unique model incentivizes consumers to transact by making the process quick and easy, unlocking a vast quantity of desirable, high quality, pre-owned luxury goods.

Inspection

- Builds trust in buyer base by thoroughly inspecting the quality and condition of every item and putting every item through a full authentication process.

- This trust drives repeat purchases from buyer base and instills confidence in first-time buyers to purchase pre-owned luxury goods from SFLMaven.

E-commerce Sales

- Items are marketed globally for auction on eBay to a robust database of new and returning customers built over 20 years in business.

- Items are concurrently listed on multiple social media channels and
promoted through additional advertising to drive bidding wars.

Growth Strategy

- SFLMaven primarily operates "no reserve" eBay auctions.

- Given eBay’s vast reach and the efficient nature of online marketplaces, supply will almost always be sold in the vicinity of a fair market price.

- Due to this effect, product supply is the only constraint to growth, as demand is nearly infinite.

- To grow sales, SFLMaven simply needs to expand product sourcing capabilities to obtain more jewelry at fair prices.

- SFLMaven is currently pursuing the following:

-- Expansion of dedicated dealer network.

-- Development of online product sourcing capabilities.

Financials

- Fairly stable revenue base with significant growth potential - able to weather various economic conditions.

- Gross margin profile varies based on competitive bidding dynamics - realized robust 21.7% margin profile in Q1 2021.

- Given auction nature, particularly unique products that trigger bidding wars can reach 75% + gross margins.

- Initiating audit with goal of filing Form 10, becoming fully reporting company in 2021 & uplisting to OTCQB.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2021 Q1 Filed May 17, 2021 - Key Points Noted

In the 2020 Annual Report - of which only the last 3 months related exclusively to the business that is now $SFLM:

For 12 months ending Dec 31, 2020 - Operating Loss of $2,690,186

In the 2021 Q1 Report - first solely on the current $SFLM business:

For 3 months ending Mar 31, 2021 - Operating Loss reduced to $116,100

Overall, $SFLM continues to head in the right direction all the time and - in the CEO's words - "on the cusp of profitability".

With the Q2 over Q1 sales up by $603K+, I expect the company to show significant profitability in 2021.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Key Points - 2021 Q1 Achievements PR Dated May 25, 2021

- 2021 Q1 revenue $2.7M - healthy 21.7% gross margin - $(.1M) net.

- Strengthened relationship with eBay corporate through promotional partnership around Mothers' Day holiday - providing preferred placement for SFLMaven products on the eBay homepage.

- Engaged international investor relations specialists MZ Group to lead a comprehensive, strategic investor relations and financial communications program across all key markets.

- Launched revamped corporate and IR website as part of a new commitment to the capital markets, providing up-to-date information for current and prospective investors.

- Selected Heather Krug PR & Marketing as the Company's Public Relations agency, with the goal of driving elevated media attention and consumer interest in SFLMaven's product listings.

- "first reported quarter as a standalone public company, having realized an incredibly strong margin profile - driven by competitive bidding dynamics for our one-of-a-kind products - while standing on the cusp of profitability"

- "We continue to see strong macroeconomic trends supporting the jewelry industry, with many pockets of newfound wealth created through stimulus efforts as well as stock and cryptocurrency capital gains being deployed into high-end jewelry."

- "Our differentiated jewelry sourcing capabilities, when paired with our strong relationship with eBay corporate and select suppliers, presents unique opportunities to further build the SFLMaven brand - including preferred product placements during major sale events on the eBay homepage and exclusive invitations to top-eBay seller events."

- "We launched a first-of-kind advertising campaign in the first quarter of 2021, which drove ‘bidding wars' through increased visibility for our listings and therefore significantly higher gross margins as compared to the prior year.

- "As we refine our campaigns to reduce our expenses, improve advertising efficiency and scale our quantity of listings, we believe we will reach profitability in the near-term."

"As we look ahead, our goal is to complete an audit, file a Form 10, uplist to the OTCQB and emerge as a profitable, fully reporting public company with a pathway to an eventual Nasdaq-listing and other complimentary growth opportunities."

"Given our strong results thus far, I firmly believe that we are on a path to create significant value for our shareholders over the long-term"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key Points - 2021 Q1 + Q2 Achievements PR Dated August 4, 2021

- Numerical performance items in relevant section below.

- "We are seeing robust improvements in the core business both in terms of expanding overall sales and through operational efficiencies"

- "We are also working to build out additional sales channels, as exemplified by the recent addition of our 1stDibs.com SFLMaven store."

- "the Company has implemented robust competitive bidding dynamics, refined ad campaigns, improved advertising efficiency, and scaled its quantity of listings, which are all supporting improvements to bottom-line cash flows from operations.".

- "The Company believes these factors will contribute to near-term profitability over coming quarters."

- Expanding market reach by diversifying sales channels.

- Implementation of a multi-channel digital strategy holds the potential to dramatically widen the end-market customer footprint and market share in the high-end jewelry marketplace.

- "Accelerating top-line growth to close out Q2 extrapolates very favorably for the second half of the year, especially given macro tailwinds for the luxury goods sector from leading economic indicators, record household savings ratios, a strong credit environment, and a very accommodative policy backdrop."
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2021 Q2 Filed August 16, 2021 - Key Points Noted

- Operating Loss in 2020 was $2.69M.

- Operating Loss in 2021 for 6 months reduced to $528K with the increased sales and despite the investment in getting those increased sales.

- Q2 had a lot of new costs added for the first time for the increased marketing and the detailed breakdown gives a good idea of those that are fixed (office + IR + PR + advertising + Internet etc) and those which are sales dependent (eg eBay commission).

- Still heading in the right direction and still looking good to flip positive in 2021.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Expansion Announcement - September 16, 2021 [source: 9th video]

Start acquiring other collectible companies to create a coalition that uses the well-established already succesful SFLMaven platforms, connections and growth model.

Already in discussion with a few companies - looking to acquire 6 or 7 - such as those specializing in:

- Baseball cards.

- Comic books.

- Handbags.

- Toys.

- Stamps.

- Sports memorabilia.

Plan is to build each to have the same size revenues as SFLMaven jewelry Division - currently around $1M per month.

In addition, forming a NFT Division of SFLMaven.

https://vimeo.com/606644545
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key Points - 2021 Q3 Achievements PR Dated October 6, 2021

- September 2021 sales $1.1M - up 32% on a sequential basis.

- 32M web impressions - nearly 70% entirely organic.

- Page views jalso jumped up on a month-by-month basis - now 340K+.

- “We are picking up steam into our seasonally strongest stretch, while also riding organic and macro tailwinds."

- "The timing couldn’t be better as we work on multiple pathways of expansion, including our new NFT and Collectibles Marketplace vision."

- "We will have much more to discuss on that front very soon.”
---------------------------------------------
Revised 2022 Price Possibility - Based On Correct Market Cap For Revenue

$SFLM currently on $11.5M eBay income per year - which was even maintained over 2 traditionally quiet months over Summer.

With best Q4 to come + additional income from 1st Dibs, assume $12M.

Multiple x 9:

- SFLMaven (current jewelry company).

- Add 6 or 7 x collectible companies and grow to same level.

- Add NFT Division of SFLMaven.

9 x $12M = $108M.

Market Cap based on total Outstanding Shares of 1.453 Billion = $.074.

Price based on Restricted still being Restricted or the company insiders / lenders choosing to keep if any go Unrestricted in 2022 - so based on Unrestricted Outstanding Shares of 837M - $.129.

This section will be updated on an ongoing basis if there is any change to the share structure.

Performance & Outlook

$SFLM [as $SKDI] was the #1 Top Profit Pick & #1 Top Actual Banked Profit Earning Stock of 2020 on my Watch List due to the multiple surges it experienced. As a long-term project, this enables more shares being held for future growth and uplisting to be effectively converted to "free" by trading a portion of the overall inventory on significant moves.

$SFLM will remain the #1 Top Profit Pick on my Watch List for my 3,198 followers throughout 2021 and into 2022 for self-evident reasons - it is currently trading well below where its market cap should be for its revenue [see section above].

$SFLM is already consistently in one of the Top 3 Actual Banked Profit positions in 2021 due to the extent and frequency of its probable short squeeze runs. It pays to be ready at all times for surges, uplisting to OTCQB and the long-term.

Continued large profit trading opportunities are anticipated ahead throughout 2021 and 2022 for those who maintain a large inventory of shares at various price points. Having plenty of shares - you don't need the cheapest - avoids the need to chase every time it runs and also locks up an ever increasing % of the low float and therefore deprives new interest of cheap shares - particularly those under .01.

Cancel any left over ask sell orders at close to get the maximum gap up at each open.

Expect .02 > .03+ at some point in 2021 - and much higher in 2022 (see forecast in earlier section) - and repeat runs in the meantime to .01 > .0150 - as the following catalysts play out:

- Awareness in the wider trading / investing community of the proven success and future potential of SFLMaven.

- Weekly eBay sales revenues visible to all share holders on a continuous basis.

- Monthly updates from the company.

- 2021 Q3 and Q4 filings.

- Rebranding.

- Launch of SFLMaven's own on-line store - in addition to eBay.

- Broadening its multi-channel digital strategy [source: PR July 15].

- Exploring other sales channels outside of eBay to diversify and expand its reach [source: PR July 15].

- Addition of a Shopify store - launch TBA [source: 8th video]

- Diversification of luxury goods offered.

- Startup of the NFT Division of SFLMaven.

- Build a "coalition" of collectibles companies - through up to 7 x acquisitions - under the recently announced Collectibles Marketplace strategy.

- Build revenue of each company in the coalition to that of the current SFLMaven.

- Large investors found by MZ Group from both their client base and investor symposiums.

- Social media influencing and brand building conducted by Heather King PR & Marketing.

- Completion of audit to become "Fully Reporting"

- Uplisting to OTCBQ.

SFLMaven 2021 Sales To October 8

[these figures are for eBay store only - from Q3 onwards there will be additional revenue from the 1st Dibs store]

2021 Total to October 1: $8,869,428 - 9,697 items - average $915 per sale

2021 Q4 to October 8: $202,341 - 239 items

2021 Q3 Total: $3,135,769 - 3,316 items

2021 Q2 Total: $3,067,276 - 3,256 items

2021 Q1 Total: $2,464,042 - 2,926 items

Broken down as follows:

September 1-30: $1,095,140 - 1,036 items

August 1-31: $872,213 - 1,013 items

July 1-31: $1,168,416 - 1,267 items

June 1-30: $1,088,998 - 1,097 items

May 1-31: $919,149 - 930 items

April 1-30 Total: $1,059,129 - 1,229 items

March 1-31: $815,986 - 973 items

February 1-28: $822,723 - 960 items

January 1-31: $825,333 - 993 items

2020 Q4 Total: $2,690,246 - 3,078 items

Broken down as follows:

December 1-31: $904,788 - 995 items

November 1-30: $735,981 - 940 items

October 1-31: $1,049,477 - 1,143 items

Note 1: My figures - added up from eBay listings by date sale closed weekly - sometimes come out slightly higher than those PR'ed by the company as some auction buys get voided.

Note 2: The majority of the revenue comes in each Thursday when the auction ends.

Note 3: Estate items sold on eBay for 18 years - est June 2003 - revenue is limited only by inventory available each week.

Note 4: On July 13, a Rolex watch sold pre-auction at the Buy-It-Now price of $25,999 - yet again demonstrating that revenue is only limited by supply which $SFLM is taking multiple steps to improve.

Note 5: Pre-auction Buy It Now sales August 1-4 were $51,696.

Note 6: June 2021 beat the previous record set in April 2021.

Note 7: 2021 Q2 beat 2021 Q1 by $603,234 - 24%.

Note 8: Net Operating Loss in 2020 was $2.69M - the increased sales and reductions in costs have reduced the Net Operating Loss to only $528K in the first 6 months of 2021 - the company therefore expects to be going profitable in 2021.

Note 9: 2021 Q2 also beat 2020 Q4 - when Q4 is traditionally the best quarter each year due to the holiday - by $377,030 - 14%.

Note 10: July 2021 sales beat the previous record set in June 2021.

Note 11: 2021 Q3 beat 2021 Q2.

Note 12: The pro-rata estimate for 2021 revenue - based on sales to October 1 and days to go - 365 / 281 x $8,869,428 = $11.5M.
