GameSquare Completes $5 Million Ethereum Purchase as Part of $100 Million Treasury Strategy
1,818.84 Ethereum Acquired at a Weighted Average Price of $2,749 per Ethereum
Over-Allotment Option Exercised, Bringing Total Gross Proceeds to $9.2 Million from Recent Offering
GameSquare Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: GAME) (the 'Company' or 'GameSquare') a next-generation media, entertainment, and technology company, today announced it has completed a $5 million purchase of Ethereum (ETH), acquiring approximately 1,818.84 ETH at a weighted average price of $2,749 per ETH. This marks the first deployment under the Company's $100 million Ethereum treasury authorization, aimed at building a differentiated, crypto-native treasury management strategy.
'This marks an inflection point in GameSquare's strategic evolution as we activate our Ethereum-native treasury strategy,' said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare. 'In partnership with Dialectic and Ryan Zurrer, we are leveraging Medici, Dialectic's proprietary platform that combines machine learning, automated optimization, and multi-layered risk controls, to target best-in-class risk-adjusted yields of 8–14%, well above current staking benchmarks of 3–4%.'
The Company's ETH-focused treasury program is designed to generate sustainable, risk-adjusted yield through decentralized finance protocols and Ethereum ecosystem assets. Medici's platform is known for its advanced risk management and performance monitoring, making it a strong foundation for scalable treasury deployment.
In addition, GameSquare announced that Lucid Capital Markets, sole book-running manager for the Company's previously announced underwritten public offering, has exercised its full over-allotment option. Lucid purchased an additional 1,263,157 shares (or common stock equivalents) at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. This brings total gross proceeds from the offering to approximately $9.2 million, including $1.2 million from the over-allotment exercise, prior to deducting offering-related expenses.
'We're encouraged by the support from a high-caliber group of investors and decentralized finance leaders who share our long-term vision. With a $100 million ETH authorization in place and momentum building, we are committed to executing a disciplined, forward-looking strategy,' concluded Mr. Kenna.
Once fully implemented, GameSquare expects to allocate capital generated from this strategy to support additional ETH asset purchases, fund a potential share repurchase program or reinvest in the Company's growth initiatives.

These 5 Technology Stocks Are Money-Printing Machines
Large technology companies generate lots of revenue and cash flow. Most return some of their massive cash flows to shareholders via dividends and repurchases. Many also have large and growing cash balances. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › The technology sector can be a very profitable industry. Many tech companies generate reliable recurring revenues by selling their software to customers on a subscription basis. Others benefit from durable and growing demand for their products as customers routinely need to upgrade to the latest model. Here are five tech titans that are money-printing machines. Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) has built an amazing ecosystem of consumer products and related services. It sold a staggering $167 billion of iPhones, iPads, Macs, and other technology products during the first half of the year. It booked another $53 billion in revenue from subscription services like Apple TV+, iCloud, and Apple Music. After expenses, Apple generated $24 billion in operating cash flow during the second quarter alone. It utilized that robust cash flow and its cash-rich balance sheet (over $132 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities) to return $29 billion to its shareholders in the quarter via dividends and share repurchases. It recently hiked its dividend by 4% and launched an additional $100 billion share repurchase program. Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG)(NASDAQ: GOOGL) generates massive revenues from online advertising on its Google Search platform and YouTube. It also generates subscription revenue (e.g., Google One), sells devices (e.g., Nest), and has a booming cloud infrastructure business. During the first quarter, Alphabet's businesses generated over $90 billion in revenue. The tech giant produced nearly $19 billion in free cash flow during the first quarter and almost $75 billion over the last 12 months. It paid out $1.2 billion of that money in dividends and repurchased over $15 billion in stock during the first quarter. With it producing more excess cash than it returned to shareholders, the amount of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on its balance sheet rose to nearly $134 billion. Alphabet recently boosted its dividend payment by 5% and authorized an additional $70 billion share repurchase program. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) has an increasingly diverse business that generates massive revenues and cash flows. It booked more than $70 billion in revenue during its fiscal 2025 third quarter from sources such as Azure cloud, Xbox, LinkedIn, Windows, and AI services. The tech titan has generated nearly $94 billion in net cash from operating activities through the first nine months of its fiscal 2025. It has paid out about $18 billion in dividends and repurchased almost $14 billion of its stock. Even with those hefty cash returns, Microsoft ended the period with almost $80 billion of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments on its balance sheet. That supports its ability to continue returning lots of money to shareholders. Microsoft boosted its dividend by 10% last fall and approved a new $60 billion share repurchase program. Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) generates massive revenues from advertising on its social media platforms. During the first quarter, it booked more than $41 billion of advertising revenue. It also generated an additional $510 million in other revenue from its "Family of Apps" segment and $412 million in revenue from its Reality Labs segment, which encompasses its virtual reality, augmented reality, and AI platforms. The social media giant's business generated more than $10 billion of free cash flow during the first quarter. It returned almost $15 billion in cash to shareholders during the period through stock repurchases ($13.4 billion) and dividend payments ($1.3 billion). Even with that robust cash return, Meta ended the period with a whopping $70 billion of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities on its balance sheet. Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) produces prodigious cash flows by developing and selling graphics processing units (GPUs), many of which are being deployed to support AI applications. It generated $44.1 billion in revenue during the first quarter, an impressive 69% increase compared to the same period last year. The big driver was sales to data center customers, which surged by 73% to $39.1 billion. The AI semiconductor giant generated over $27 billion in cash flow from operations during the first quarter, a 79% increase compared to the same period last year. It returned $14.3 billion to shareholders through stock repurchases ($14.1 billion) and dividends ($244 million). With its free cash flow far outpacing its cash returns, Nvidia's cash balance ballooned to $53.7 billion. That will allow it to continue returning more cash to shareholders. It gave investors a massive 150% dividend hike last year and boosted its stock repurchase program by a whopping $50 billion. These large technology companies have become money printers. They generate mounds of recurring revenue from subscriptions, advertising, and rising demand for their products and services. That enables them to return prodigious amounts of cash to shareholders through growing dividends and meaningful share repurchase programs.

BSTR Miner Launches ETH Staking-Style Service via Cloud Mining, Offering Optimized Crypto Rewards
LOS ANGELES, USA, July 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BSTR Miner, a leading AI-optimized cloud mining platform, today announced the integration of Ethereum (ETH) mining into its service suite through a unique 'staking-style' model. This approach allows users to participate in ETH rewards using cloud-based hash power, eliminating the complexities of direct staking or physical mining operations. Cloud-Powered 'Staking-Style' Mechanics: A Lower Barrier to Entry At the heart of this new offering is BSTR Miner's cloud-based 'staking-style' mechanism. Unlike native Proof-of-Stake (PoS) validation—which requires 32 ETH and significant technical expertise—BSTR Miner's service leverages its global network of mining farms (equipped with ASIC/GPU clusters) to mine Ethereum . Users gain access by purchasing standardized hash power contracts.（Click here to view complete contract details）. Daily rewards are then calculated and distributed by BSTR Miner's proprietary Quantum Allocation Matrix (QAM) engine. This AI system dynamically optimizes resource allocation in real-time, Takes into account Ethereum network difficulty and energy cost fluctuations and *aims* to optimize reward distribution based on network conditions. Simplifying Access and Managing Risk BSTR Miner's model significantly lowers the barriers compared to traditional ETH staking. Where native staking demands a substantial 32 ETH stake (approximately $60,000), advanced technical skills for node operation, involves locking funds for months with infrequent reward distribution, and carries risks like slashing penalties, BSTR Miner offers a stark contrast. Its service features a minimum entry point of just $100, requires no technical skill from the user, provides flexible fund withdrawal options, and distributes rewards daily. To mitigate operational risks, BSTR Miner backs its service with a robust 95% Uptime Service Level Agreement (SLA) and maintains a dedicated 3% Reserve Fund. Commitment to Compliance, Security, and Transparency BSTR Miner emphasizes ，The platform promises transparent pricing with 0% hidden fees, ensuring all costs are fully disclosed before any purchase.
