NAGA Acquires Seychelles Permission to Boost Global Presence

NAGA Group (ETR: N4G), which operates a social trading platform and has moved into cryptocurrencies and payments, has been granted a fresh license by the Seychelles regulator. The license, which was announced on Wednesday, would assist the firm in accelerating its global presence.

Benjamin Bilski, NAGA's Founder and CEO, stated, "The license from Seychelles provides a completely regulated environment for our business outside of Europe; it will help us to improve banking and payment partnerships and unleash the significance of our B2B segment."

We have been working on this license for some months and are pleased to have it operational in the fourth quarter.

NAGA originally operated under a German license and acquired an Estonian crypto license earlier this year.

The Germany-based company launched a bitcoin exchange earlier this year, marking its entry into the cryptocurrency market. Now, it is endeavoring to increase its cryptocurrency offers.

NAGAX, the crypto division of NAGA Group, has signed a letter of intent to establish a joint venture with Guide Investimentos, a Brazilian digital asset management platform owned by the FOSUN group. They intend to build a cryptocurrency trading platform in Brazil.

Bilski is optimistic about entering the Latin American market, stating, "The Brazilian market for digital products is fast expanding."

NAGA's revenue increased as a result of an increase in demand for its services, which grew significantly. Its sales for the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 increased by 63 percent to 18 million euros. In addition, the EBITDA increased by 66%.

As a result of a 30% reduction in monthly expenses, the group is now focusing on operational efficiency. In addition, the company disclosed that its revenue for the months of August and September was average for the first half of 2022.

"We continue to reduce our costs. Bilski continued, "We are not yet where we want to be, but it is encouraging to see that we can maintain a strong top-line growth and operate the firm on its own cash flow."

The price of the company's publicly listed shares reflects the bullish mood generated by the company's most recent announcements. The closing price of a share of NAGA Group stock on Wednesday was EUR 1.35, a 16 percent increase over Tuesday's closing price.

However, the share price must increase significantly to offset the price decline during the past few months.

"We must acknowledge that this year has been really difficult for us. From unanticipated accounting changes to unprecedented pressure on the stock market, which has had a significant impact on our share price and valuations, to investing and launching products such as NAGAX in the worst market conditions imaginable for the cryptocurrency market, Bilski outlined a number of obstacles.
