Founder and CEO of Mene, Roy Sebag, said:
“I am pleased to report Mene Inc.’s first quarterly results as a publicly traded company. The past few months have been eventful for our company, as we formalized our separation from Goldmoney Inc. and have seen significant traction in consumer adoption of our innovative and disruptive business model that sells 24 karat gold and platinum jewelry by gram weight. We have demonstrated to our original investors that the business model is not only disruptive but also profitable, and as such have decided to access capital in the form of equity and debt. Our debt financing is in the form of a gold-secured note that allows us to grow our inventory to as much as $30 million by Q2 2019.”
