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

$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 also sells at 1stDibs [source: Twitter July 8, 2021]
----------------------------------------
Future Intent

- Increase inventory to increase sales volume.

- Expand the new Non-Fungible Token (NFT) Division [source: 9th video and PRs September 21 and 23]

- Develop a Collectibles Marketplace Strategy by acquiring several collectible companies - and grow using proven business model - to same revenue level as original SFLMaven Jewelry Division - see more detail in specific section below [source: 9th video and PR dated September 21].

- In the longer term, looking to acquire 8-10 collectibles companies over 5 years [source: 11th video].

- Diversify and grow another significant revenue stream with a Metaverse Division [source: 14th video]

- Initiating audit with goal of filing Form 10, becoming fully reporting company and uplist to OTCQB - so we can expect a sustained .01 bid at some point ahead [source: 7th Video] or NASDAQ via IPO [source: 17th Video].

- Reduce shares available through the multi-stage Shareholder Protection Initiative [see relevant section below]
---------------------------------------------------
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 such as those specializing in: baseball cards, comic books, handbags, toys, stamps and sports memorabilia.

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

Public Offering

A Public Offering of at .0050 to raise capital to increase the inventory to increase sales by a target of 30% in 2021 was filed on January 28, 2021.

The Public Offering Statement was updated on May 18, 2021 to change the price to .0046 and it was confirmed that money was already coming in.

With the sales increase target already exceeded by the end of Q3, a SEC Form 1-Z Public Offering Exit Report was filed on December 9, 2021 showing that:

- $1.615M in capital was raised in 2021.

- Only 352.5M of the 2.2 Billion maximum offered from October 10, 2019 were sold at .0046. The majority of these shares have probably already been traded on previous runs (see Share Structure section notes).

From December 16, 2021 onwards, there has been a Public Offering of 2 Billion maximum offered at prices that are varied periodically to offer a discount to institutional level investors / large account traders who can meet the minimum of $50K initial purchase, minimum of $10K follow-on purchase and other relevant qualifying criteria.

This Public Offering has brought in a further $597K net in capital as at June 3, 2022 [source: SEC Form 253G2] which would equate to 12 x $50K investors.

The Increased cash available from the Public Offering enabled more inventory to be bought. This has already resulted in increased revenue of 19% in 2022 to June 8 [source: PR June 10].

There was no dilution in the 96 days to September 8, 2022.
------------------------------------
Key Points - New Shareholder Protection Initiative PR'ed April 22, 2022

- CEO voluntarily returning 300M shares of common stock to the Company’s treasury.

- This is an initial step in $SFLM's newly initiated shareholder value protection campaign.

- It will reduce outstanding shares to protect SFLMaven shareholders from dilution risk.

- $SFLM's "financial reality has shifted over recent months offering an opportunity to drive value for our shareholders in many ways, including proactive measures designed to eradicate dilution risk”.

- The 300M shares being returned is just the first step"

- SFLMaven management "is committed to establishing a shareholder-friendly relationship with its common stockholders. Cash flows derived directly from operations so far in 2022 have granted the Company room to tighten up its capital structure."

- "Additional proactive measures targeting this agenda will be announced in future communications."

Note 6: The 43.75M increase in September 2021 was not significant to the top long-term traders of $SFLM. 282M were traded in the 22 trading days concerned - including 71M on September 21 followed by another 60M October 5+6.

Note 13: The 90M increase April 27 > June 3 was not significant to the top long-term top traders of $SFLM as 563M shares were traded during the period - including 130M on April 27 - increase effectively gone x 1.44 on Day 1 of 37 days in the period.

Trading Patterns

Note 1: Details of runs in 2019 and 2020 of up to 433% have been deleted - still available to view in the contemporaneous record here.

Note 2: Now that we are expecting runs of 1000% > 2000% in 2022/3 from current levels, details of 8 x runs less than 84% in 2021 have been deleted - still available to view in the contemporaneous record here - to make breakout patterns in a new tax year more evident. In addition, some details of stages observed in previous short squeezes has also been deleted.

2021

Started breakout from .0038 (previous close) > .0050 on January 6, 2021

Ran from .0052 > .0064 on February 9 - 23%

Ran from .0062 > .0080 on February 10 - 29%

Ran from .0073 > .0091 on February 11 - 25%

Ran from .0070 > .0088 on February 18 - 26%

Ran from .0076 > .0091 on March 3 - 20%

Ran from .0086 (previous close) > .0197 (then new 2021 high) on March 24 - 129%

Ran from .0092 (previous close) > .0169 on March 29 on just under 99M traded - 84%

Ran from .0169 (previous close) > .0200 (new 2021 high) on March 30 - 18%

Ran from .0127 (previous close) > .0160 on April 1 on just 28M traded - 26%

Ran from .0098 (previous close ) > .0119 on April 8 - 21%

Ran from .0060 (previous close) > .0117 on July 15 - 95%

Ran from .0018 (days prior) > .0030 by December 14 - 66%

2022

Ran from .0018 > .0024 on February 4 - 33%

Ran from .0008 > .0014 by March 7+8 - 75%

Ran from .0008 (previous close ask) > .0011 on April 22 - 37.5%

Ran from .0009 (previous close ask) > .0012 on April 27 - 33%

Ran from .0007 (available previously) > .0012 on September 7 - 71%.

Maintained same bottom range - predominantly .0020 > .0052 (10% > 25% of the anticipated .02+ break) - for 71 trading days to December 31, 2021 as new interest tried bidding first but also bought some on the ask. By then, 823.3M shares - 98.3% of the low Unrestricted Outstanding Shares count at the time - had been bought September 22 - December 31. As the balance at higher prices are held by longs, this should make it extremely thin to the upside in the .0052 > .02+ range.

Increases in the Unrestricted Outstanding Shares over the last 255 days have not been significant to the top long-term traders of $SFLM as a proportion of the total volume traded (see relevant section above) and the greatly increased revenue achieved over the past 38 weeks due to increased cash available for inventory is clearly evident.

On April 22, $SFLM launched its Shareholder Protection Initiative. The first step is a reduction of 300M shares - effectively cancelling out all the increases that brought in the first $240K in capital - which in turn enabled an additional 19% in revenue January 1 > June 8.

Expect a dramatic move up anytime we get sufficiently large buys set across several successive asks - as happened on September 7 - taking out any walls put up by any legacy debt holders or those that attempt to manipulate the price down by a combination of shorting and walked down, often "fake" walls - by which I mean cancelled when hit without filling.

When traders fail to hit the ask aggressively enough at the open, any legacy debt holders will continue to trade at current levels. When the ask is hit aggressively enough across asks, MMs acting for legacy debt holders move up.

We should get past mass 1-tick flippers by .0012 and be back to a more normal few M per .0001 from .0013 > .0020 then much thinner still after that all the way to the .01>.02+ range IMO.

Any manipulators leave themselves open to getting short squeezed - as happened in 2021 on March 24 and March 29 for 129% and 84% runs and again on July 15 for 95%. During several runs, legacy debt holders have been observed to push bids up and not start daily selling on the ask until a peak is reached.

A number of times in 2021 and 2022, more traders have been willing to hit the ask above hold back attempts to top up their inventory of shares for trading throughout 2022 and 2023 - especially during the phase when the company starts its qualification attempt to uplist to OTCQB which will require a sustained bid above .01 - and for trading on surge moves and short squeezes.

With many traders now known to be watching $SFLM at all times, those that try walking asks down are likely to get taken out by large buys - and lose shares at just the wrong time - as happened on July 11, 2022.

As with all my long-term top picks, knowing who got what where - relative to you by process of elimination - is important when deciding the ratio of shares to keep long-term vs locking in partial profits at peaks in the .01 > .02+ range - as is patience - this is a long-term play throughout 2022 into 2023.
---------------------------------------------------
Performance & Outlook

$SFLM will remain a top profit pick for me throughout 2022 into 2023 for self-evident reasons.

It is currently trading well below where its market cap should be both for its predicted 2022 eBay / 1stDibs revenue of $12M > $15M and for its planned 10 x revenue ahead with the NFT Divsion, Metaverse Division, Bitcoin enterprise and acquisitions under the Collectibles Marketplace Strategy.

The company exceeded its 2021 revenue growth target of 30% - achieving $10M+ / 35% [see relevant sections above].

It has already achieved a further 19% growth in 2022 to June 8.

$SFLM was also my predicted and actual top profit earner in both 2021 and 2020 due to the extent and frequency of its probable short squeeze runs. 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 - particularly on interim peaks around .0150.

It pays to be ready at all times for surges, uplisting to OTCQB, NASDAQ IPO and the long-term.

Continued large profit trading opportunities are anticipated ahead throughout 2022 and future years for those who maintain a large inventory of shares at a variety of price points. Having plenty of shares - you don't need the cheapes t - avoids the need to chase every time it runs.

Cancel any left over ask sell orders at close to get the maximum gap up at each open - a few traders are still failing to do this.

Expect .02+ at some point ahead in 2022/3 - and much higher in the longer term as the up to 10 x revenue from the NFT Division, Metaverse Division, Bitcoin and Collectibles Marketplace Strategy kicks in (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 and potential shareholders on a continuous basis.

- Updates from the company via both Twitter and PRs regularly.

- Updates on the progress of the Metaverse Division every week or so.

- Updates on the progress of the Bitcoin enterprise.

- Further share reductions under the Shareholder Protection Initiative.

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

- Exploring other sales channels outside of eBay to diversify and expand its reach [source: PR July 15, 2021].

- Nationwide expansion of the NFT Division of SFLMaven.

- Collectibles Marketplace Strategy - acquire up to 10 x existing collectibles companies.

- Build revenue of each company to that of the current SFLMaven Jewelry Division - $1M most months of the year.

- Completion of audit to become "Fully Reporting"

- Uplist to OTCBQ or NASDAQ IPO.

SFLMaven Annual Revenue - Weeks 1-38

Previous Total Weeks 1-37: $8.476M

Revenue Week 38: $0.212M

2022 Total Weeks 1-38: $8.688M

Note 1: Above totals derived by adding weekly sales from eBay - or greater figure given by official company updates via Twitter - to the figure given by CEO in 16th Update Video for January 1 > June 8.

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

Note 3: Estate items sold on eBay for 19+ years - est June 2003 - revenue is limited only by the inventory available each week. This has been clearly demonstrated several times when desirable items were bought ahead of the auction eg "Buy It Now" sales August 1-4, 2021 were $51,696 and March 4-9, 2022 were $61,056 including a $35,000 item.

Note 4: 2021 Total Revenue: $10.001M.

Note 5: Current estimate for 2022 revenue: $12M - up another 20% [source: 16th Video].

Note 6: Q3 revenue already $2.940M from 12 x weeks.
