Las Vegas From Home.com Entertainment Reports  Second Quarter 2007 Results


Vancouver, British Columbia, August 29, 2007 Las Vegas From Home.com Entertainment Inc. (the “Company”) or (“LVFH”) today announced results from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.



All financial figures are in Canadian dollars.


Q2 Progress

As a result of the recent legislative developments in the North American market and the significant potential in the nascent Asian market, the company has focused its strategic efforts on developing a multi-player gaming platform targeted at the Asian market. The Company has turned its focus towards developing specific products for specialized markets.


The second quarter of 2007 was a transitional one for LVFH and does not reflect the progress the Company has made with its product and its market position in Asia according to Jake Kalpakian, President and CEO.  “Our Q2 numbers were impacted due to a combination of factors.  As a result of a strengthening Canadian dollar during the quarter, the Company was negatively impacted by approximately $500,000 just in Foreign Exchange fluctuations.  Other factors also significantly adding to the negative impact were stock-based compensation, amortization and a special one-time goodwill marketing rebate.  Furthermore, the Company’s decision to delay the commercial launch of its own website in favour of concentrating on the development of a specific business initiative must also be considered in this quarter’s results”.  


The Company incurred a loss of $1,641,628 as compared to a loss of $360,306 in Q1 2007 and a loss of $853,501 for the comparative quarter in 2006.


Mr. Kalpakian continues, “As mentioned above one must note the nature of the factors which contributed to this quarter’s results.  More importantly, we believe the steps we have taken to improve our product and business relationships in Asia have better positioned us for the future.  While it’s taking longer than anticipated, this “improved positioning” is already evident by the fact we have made significant progress with certain business opportunities. With approximately $6.5 million in the bank, we are well situated as we look ahead”.

 

 

Revenues

The Company’s second quarter generated revenue from continuing operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2007 was $126,428, as compared to $918,363 in the first quarter of 2007.  The Company actually generated $481,050 revenues in Q2 but $354,622 of that amount was waived in favour to a Licensee as a special one-time goodwill marketing rebate due to operational downtime because of software upgrades. Revenue from continuing operations for the year ago period was $nil due to the sale of APG and the re-classification of the APG operations to discontinued operations.  


Interest income in Q2 was $81,678 as compared to $83,371 in Q1 and $13,826 for the comparative quarter in 2006 due to the sale of APG and the re-classification of APG operations to discontinued operations.
