Furthermore, the six month operating loss was cut from $(2,668,117) to $(85,072). The loss was mostly attributable to onetime items associated with our annual filing.

The company introduced its new direct-to-agent and direct-to-broker product, NestbuilderAgent, to much acclaim in this second quarter. Marketing and sales focus was placed on this expansive product with the hire of two key, senior level sales personnel and the beginnings of a dynamic inside sales force.

Six month revenues were also down 13% to $533,338 mostly reflecting continued weakness in our RB360 video production system. The company, recognizing the commoditized nature of video, has pivoted to ancillary product lines, addressing agent and broker needs through comprehensive marketing products such as NestbuilderAgent.

"This is a momentous day for RealBiz as the company has finally been able to report its first quarterly profit since inception as a public company," said Alex O. Aliksanyan, CEO of RealBiz. "We believe the superlative reviews NestbuilderAgent has received from the real estate media and community is an excellent indicator of the long term traction of the product. Besides creating beautiful videos that help in the sales effort, we now have built an entire marketing platform that incorporates video into a multi prong tool that sells homes!" continued Mr. Aliksanyan.

The company continues to work towards the completion of the turnaround via a reverse stock split and accompanying uplist with its advisors and bankers.
