KA-CHING! STUDIO 777 Delivers A 76% Dividend Increase and Reaches New Earnings Heights

    NEW YORK, NY, July 08, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- STUDIO 777 (CAPEX: FUN) today reported results for the month ended June 30, 2014. Since the Company's IPO application projections, FUN revenue surged over 50% from L$10,000,000 to L$15,148,396, and dividends increased 76% to L$353,192. This does not include the IPO proceeds of L$5,760,600; these funds have been allocated as restricted.

Management reports that due to IPO marketing and press coverage, there was an unprecedented increase of new players including new Second Life residents coming from all over the grid. Our Board of Directors has directed these profits be disbursed to Shareholders immediately because of the Company's dividend policy (see footnote 6 below). Management expects increased revenue and profit going forward.

Reflecting its positive long-term outlook and the momentum associated with growth initiatives, Shareholder dividends rose from a projected L$200,000 to L$353,192. The dividend will be paid 7/7 to all Shareholders of record, and it is intended that dividends will be paid on the 7th of the month thereafter.

"Woot! With huge thanks to over 200 Shareholders, we sold out CapEx's largest IPO and achieved some of our best results ever! It's been amazing and look for major FUN news coming soon," said Luke Slingshot, CEO. "Our IPO Thank You party at TREASURE with DJ Rainne & DJ Psi was epic with 94 guests on our land! The following night DJ Sasch from Germany rocked the party with 87 guests. Thanks Team. Please invite your friends and dance, party, play and win at your Club anytime! We're pumped to continue to share our success with you."

Glaznah Gassner, CEO of EARN and BOTS, and Board Member of FUN, commented, "It is a real pleasure to take part in the management of a successful company. I was expecting that FUN revenues would grow from month to month (I've ensured that before joining FUN's management), but I was really impressed by the *additional* boost FUN got from the press releases, SLCapEx announcements and IPO! With the company's long successful history I'm just happy to own FUN's shares and proud to be a Board member."

KariAnne Starsmith, President of STUDIO 777, explained, "This was an extraordinary time with national and international media covering the IPO. While we cannot guarantee results, our guidance and experience is we've reached a new revenue plateau that we are confident will continue. We are aggressively beginning to execute on the projects and concepts we introduced in the IPO application and look forward to continued sustained growth. We'd like to thank Skip Oceanlane, Capital Exchange and CERC for their support, along with our Shareholders, Team and Partners. More FUN to come!"
