The company exchanged 500,000 shares of its common stock for 132,000 shares of Gameverse, valued at $190,500.

The company’s operational metrics showed a mixed performance. While the total number of shares outstanding increased, the cash flow from operations remained negative at $(206,514) for the quarter, although this was an improvement from $(1,170,367) in the same period last year. SRM's management noted that the ongoing costs associated with expansion and development plans continue to impact cash flow.

The management's forward-looking statements indicate a cautious optimism about future performance, contingent on the successful execution of its strategic initiatives and the stabilization of cash flows.
