The sale of the broadcast channel asset marks another step forward by QYOU Media, Inc., to execute on its previously announced go forward strategy focusing its resources and strategic efforts on high-growth segments within the global digital creator economy and social media marketing.

We believe this pivot will unlock greater long-term value for our shareholders. The television business has been marked by huge upheaval globally and it was simply time for us to move decisively into the areas of our business where we see the strongest positive growth opportunities for many years to come. We wish Oscar Media the best of luck with the channel and we thank all the people who helped build it with us along the way."
