Brag House Files First Quarterly Report as Public Company Highlighting Strengthened Balance Sheet, Strategic Partnership with Learfield, and Platform Readiness for Fall Expansion
NEW YORK, July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brag House Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: TBH) ('Brag House' or the 'Company'), the Gen Z engagement platform operating at the intersection of gaming, college sports, and digital media, today announced the filing of its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. This is the Company's first quarterly report since becoming a publicly listed company in March.
The filing reflects significant balance sheet improvements following the Company's initial public offering, as well as strategic positioning ahead of key growth initiatives scheduled for later this year.
Key Highlights from the Q1 2025 Filing:
Strengthened Capital Position: As of March 31, 2025, the Company held $3.5 million in cash, bolstered by net proceeds from its IPO.
Convertible Debt Eliminated: All $6.6 million of convertible debt including accrued interest was eliminated through equity conversion, significantly strengthening the Company's financial foundation.
Balance Sheet Turnaround: Brag House moved from a $8.5 million deficit to a $1.6 million surplus in stockholders' equity during the quarter, reflecting strong investor confidence as evidenced by the Company's IPO and the full exercise of the Overallotment option.
'This quarter validates the strategy we set in motion leading up to our IPO,' said Lavell Juan Malloy II, CEO and Co-Founder of Brag House. 'We've entered the public markets with a strong balance sheet and a clear plan for scaling revenue, data capabilities, and brand partnerships.'
Strategic Partnership with Learfield Fuels Fall Activation
In Q1, the Company secured a strategic partnership with Learfield Communications, the media and technology powerhouse in college athletics. Through this agreement, Brag House gains access to more than 200 NCAA collegiate properties, including premier football programs and student communities.
Following several successful beta activations, including the inaugural Brag Gators Gauntlet at the University of Florida on May 17, 2025, Brag House is now preparing to launch the Brag Gators series this fall, aligned with the college football season.
This partnership underpins the Company's multi-layered revenue model and supports its evolution into a data-driven platform that delivers anonymized Gen Z behavioral insights to brand partners seeking to lower customer acquisition costs and optimize campaign engagement.
Zacks Valuation Signals Upside Potential
On July 9, 2025, Zacks Small-Cap Research initiated coverage on Brag House with a $4.40 valuation target — more than [6x] the Company's current share price based on the closing price as of July 21, 2025. The report underscores Brag House's differentiated Gen Z-first model and scalable growth potential.
'We are honored to be recognized by Zacks for the strategic and structural foundation we've built,' added Malloy. 'Like Zacks, we believe Brag House is uniquely positioned to scale into a $6.7 billion Total Addressable Market focused on Gen Z.'

5 Breakout Growth Stocks You Can Buy and Hold for the Next Decade
Key Points Nvidia and TSMC are two of the best ways to play the growth in AI infrastructure. Meta Platforms and Toast are using AI to help drive growth. GitLab is helping transform the software development lifecycle. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › Investors looking for long-term winners should focus on companies with strong growth runways, clear competitive advantages, and the ability to adapt to evolving tech trends. Let's look at five breakout growth stocks that fit this bill that you can buy now and hold for the long term. 1. Nvidia Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) is the undisputed leader in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. Its graphics processing units (GPUs) have become the backbone of AI workloads, and it's hard to overstate the company's dominance. It captured an incredible 92% market share in Q1, and even at a $4 trillion market cap, Nvidia is still in growth mode. Its real moat isn't just its chips -- it's its CUDA software platform. CUDA is the main reason why the company is in the position it is in today. Nvidia pushed its free software platform into research labs and universities well before AI went mainstream. This led to developers being trained on CUDA, and tools and libraries being built on top of it that improve its chips' performance in handling AI tasks. Nvidia, meanwhile, recently got good news when the Trump administration indicated it would once again let it sell its H20 chips in China. The company is also pushing into new markets beyond AI, with the auto segment being another potential huge market with the advent of autonomous driving and robotaxis. As such, Nvidia remains a great growth stock to own for the long haul. 2. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE: TSM) is the world's leading chip foundry, and its importance just keeps growing. Today, most advanced chipmakers just design chips, leaving their production to TSMC. That includes top names like Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom, and Apple. TSMC is benefiting from the AI surge, with high-performance computing (HPC) now making up 60% of its revenue -- up from 52% a year ago. The company is far ahead in advanced node manufacturing, and that lead keeps widening. Nodes refer to how many transistors can be fit on a chip, and the more dense a chip is, the more powerful and energy efficient it becomes. Chips built on 7-nanometer and smaller nodes made up 74% of TSMC's revenue last quarter, with 3nm chips accounting for 24%. With other foundries struggling, TSMC is the clear leader in the space due to its scale and technological expertise. As a result, it has been an invaluable partner to top chip designers. The great thing is that it doesn't matter which company takes market share, as they all use TSMC. With AI demand continuing to grow and new markets like autonomous driving emerging, TSMC looks like a cornerstone stock to own for the next decade. 3. Meta Platforms One company looking to win the AI battle is Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META). Meta already owns one of the most powerful digital ad platforms in the world, and it is now using AI to supercharge it. Meta's Llama models are helping boost engagement across Facebook and Instagram, which means users are spending more time on the apps, leading to more ad inventory to sell. At the same time, its AI tools are helping advertisers build better campaigns and target users more precisely, leading to higher ad prices and stronger return on ad spend. But the biggest opportunities are still ahead. Meta is only just beginning to serve ads on WhatsApp and Threads. WhatsApp has more than 3 billion users, and Threads already has 350 million. Both are early in their ad rollouts, and that gives Meta a long runway for growth. Meanwhile, CEO Mark Zuckerberg is spending aggressively to secure AI talent, with a stated goal of delivering "personal superintelligence." That's a bold vision, but if Meta succeeds, it could become the most important AI platform in the world. That's a reason to own it for the long term. 4. GitLab GitLab (NASDAQ: GTLB) is transforming itself from a code repository into a full-blown software development lifecycle platform. Its platform now provides tools for planning, coding, testing, securing, deploying, and monitoring software, as it looks to become a single platform for the entire software development lifecycle. And it's doing this just as AI is fundamentally changing how code is written, tested, and deployed. Software development has been accelerating due to AI, and GitLab is becoming a key partner. GitLab 18 marked a big leap forward, with over 30 new features including Duo Agent, which allows AI agents to help across the full development lifecycle. That matters, because only about 20% of a developer's time is spent actually writing code. GitLab is now focused on helping drive efficiency everywhere else. In an AI-first software world, GitLab's position as an end-to-end workflow solution puts it in a strong spot. This looks like a strong growth story with a lot of upside potential in the years to come. 5. Toast Toast (NYSE: TOST) is growing in importance in the restaurant industry, as its software platform helps restaurants manage operations and drive sales. Meanwhile, the company is now integrating AI into its platform in a way that could meaningfully change how restaurants make decisions. Tools like ToastIQ and Sous Chef are helping restaurants make smarter, faster decisions in real time -- whether it's optimizing staffing, adjusting menus, or helping improve supply chains. It has even started piloting new modules to help restaurants upsell customers and improve their advertising with Google. Toast's value proposition is clear: It helps restaurants run better and make more money. Meanwhile, through its payment processing, it benefits when its customers succeed. As restaurants face rising costs and tighter margins, they're turning to tech to help, and Toast is becoming one of the first places they look. That said, the restaurant industry is large and fragmented, giving Toast plenty of room to continue to expand over the next decade. Should you invest $1,000 in Nvidia right now?

Better EV Stock: Alphabet vs. Tesla (Hint: Robotaxis Are the Key)
Key Points The future of the auto industry lies in electric vehicles and ridesharing in autonomous vehicles. After many years in service, Waymo still can't point to a timeline of profitability. Tesla also faces challenges with its robotaxi offering, but it's well positioned, provided it can demonstrate safety and efficacy. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) isn't, strictly speaking, an electric vehicle (EV) company. However, its autonomous driving technology company, Waymo, is committed to only using EVs in its fleet. Funnily enough, it could be argued that Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) isn't really a pure EV company either. After all, most of its sky–high valuation is attributable to the potential of its robotaxis. However, the comparison of these two as EV companies is valid because the future of the auto industry is EVs, and ridesharing in autonomous vehicles will be a larger part of the industry in the future. But which company is better placed, and which is the better stock? Alphabet vs. Tesla It's entirely possible that Alphabet could decide to spin off Waymo, not least because it reportedly could be valued at more than $45 billion. Meanwhile, one of Tesla's biggest supporters, Cathie Wood's Ark Invest, ascribes 88% of Tesla's enterprise value (market cap plus net debt) to robotaxis in its investment case for the stock, producing an expected value of $2,600 for the stock in 2029. As I have previously discussed, the Ark targets should be taken with a pinch of salt, as its track record on Tesla hasn't been good. However, Ark's core argument is sound and points to Tesla being potentially a far more valuable stock than Waymo ever will be. Pathways to profitability The core argument is that Tesla's business model is scalable to profitability while Waymo's is far less so. The issue of Waymo's profitability arose in a recent CNBC interview with Waymo co-CEO Tekedra Mawakana, where she was asked whether Waymo is profitable. She replied, "We're proving out that it can be a profitable business." When asked when Waymo would be profitable, she replied, "not clear." It's also not clear if Alphabet/Waymo doesn't have an internal forecast for when it will hit profitability, or if Mawakana preferred not to divulge what the company considers an uncertain forecast. However, it's inconceivable that Alphabet is not internally crunching the numbers on this, and if it does decide to spin off Waymo, it's a question that needs to be answered. The point here is that a business that can't be profitable isn't worth anything, let alone $45 billion, so at some point, its management is going to have to set some timelines. Tesla and timelines Whereas investors need to hear more about timelines from Waymo, whose public self-driving ride-hailing service was launched in 2018, there's probably a need for fewer declared timelines from Tesla, or, rather, a need for more accurate ones. For example, in 2019, CEO Elon Musk famously told investors to expect a million self-driving vehicles on the road by mid-2020. In April 2022, he also stated that Tesla aspired to reach volume production of a dedicated robotaxi (Cybercab) in 2024 -- a timeline that has now been pushed back to 2026. These timeline estimates matter because plugging overly optimistic assumptions from them into valuation models can produce dramatically erroneous conclusions. Why Tesla is better positioned With all that said, Tesla has clear advantages over Waymo, provided it can demonstrate safety and reliability and achieve regulatory approvals. Its advantages include: Lower vehicle costs, with Musk aiming for a $30,000 price tag for a dedicated robotaxi, the Cybercab. Meanwhile, Wall Street analysts estimate Waymo's current vehicles cost more than $120,000. In addition, Tesla manufactures its own cars (Waymo does not), and existing Teslas can be converted into robotaxis using Tesla's as-yet-unreleased-to-the-public unsupervised full self-driving (FSD) software, giving Tesla a significant advantage in scaling the robotaxi business. Tesla's use of camera-centric technology is inherently less expensive than Waymo's combination of cameras, light detection and ranging (Lidar) lasers, and high-definition maps. Every Tesla car (robotaxi or not) on the road is effectively a data gatherer, with the data used to improve the AI that powers its AI models. As such, even though Waymo was first, Tesla has significantly more data than Waymo. Which is the better EV stock? Waymo may become profitable in the future, particularly if Lidar costs continue to drop. However, it's challenging to think that it will be a strong competitor to Tesla, provided Musk's company can master safe, unsupervised FSD using a camera-centric approach. That's a big "if" at this stage, but it becomes a smaller "if" as time goes by and Tesla expands its nascent robotaxi offering across new geographies. Tesla's next robotaxi launch is expected to be in Phoenix, as it plans to continue slowly building its robotaxi business. I think Tesla is the better EV stock when comparing Tesla and Alphabet.
