Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2019

(Unaudited)

(Expressed in U.S. dollars)

Note 1 – Nature of Operations

Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. (formerly VGambling Inc.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on July 22, 2008. On April 18, 2017, the majority of the shareholders of the Company’s common stock voted to approve a change of the name of the Company from VGambling, Inc. to Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. The Company is licensed to conduct online gambling.

Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

The Company is in the development stage and has not yet realized profitable operations and has relied on non-operational sources to fund operations. The Company has incurred recurring losses and additional future losses are anticipated as the Company has not yet been able to generate revenue. The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to obtain the licenses required to operate its gambling business, failing to secure the additional funding required to fully operationalize the Company’s business, and the risk of existing or future competitors offering similar or more advanced technology.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize it assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As at March 31, 2019, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $10,194,886 and a working capital deficiency of $5,631,091. The Company has not generated any revenues during the period ended March 31, 2019. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations.

These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s evaluations are based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably to be knowable as of March 31, 2019. Based on the following, management believes that it is probable that management will be unable to meet its obligations as they come due within one year that the financial statements are issued.

These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.

Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements follows:

Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) set forth in Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read along with the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K of the Company for the annual period ended June 30, 2018. The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended. The consolidated statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Esports Services Antigua Ltd., Vie Esports Services B.V., Esports Services (Malta) Limited and Esports Entertainment (Malta) Ltd. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

Recently issued accounting standards

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements.

ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The ASU provides clarity to preparers on the treatment of eight specific items within an entity’s statement of cash flows. The guidance becomes effective for all public entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods therein. The adoption of the amended guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

ASU No. 2016-18, Restricted Cash: On November 17, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, which amends ASC 230 to add or clarify guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. The classification of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows, along with eight other cash-flow-related issues, was initially addressed by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) in Issue 15-F. However, after deliberation of those issues, the EITF decided to address the diversity in practice related to the cash flow classification of restricted cash separately, in Issue 16-A. ASU 2016-18 is based on the EITF's consensuses reached on that Issue.

ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The ASU amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based arrangements and provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. The guidance becomes effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of the amended guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. ASU 2018-05 amends SEC paragraphs in ASC 740 to reflect SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No.118. When the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into law, the SEC staff released SAB 118 for applying Topic 740 as it relates to the Act. SAB 118 outlines the approach companies may take if they determine that the necessary information is not available (in reasonable detail) to evaluate, compute, and prepare accounting entries to recognize the effect(s) of the Act by the time the financial statements are required to be filed. Companies may use this approach when the timely determination of some or all of the income tax effect(s) from the Act is incomplete by the due date of the financial statements. SAB 118 also prescribes disclosures that reporting entities must provide in these circumstances. The amendments to the Accounting Standards Codification became effective upon issuance. The adoption of the amended guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The following are new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued a new standard which requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The new guidance will require the asset and liability to be initially measured at the present value of the lease payments in the statement of financial position. The new guidance will also require the company to recognize interest expense on the lease liability separately from the amortization of the right-use-asset for finance leases and recognize a single lease cost allocated on a straight-line basis over the lease term for operating leases, in the statement of comprehensive income. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years with early application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other- Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). This ASU addresses customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract and also adds certain disclosure requirements related to implementation costs incurred for internal-use software and cloud computing arrangements. The amendment aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this ASU can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance to determine the impact it may have on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820). The ASU eliminates such disclosures as the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The ASU adds new disclosure requirements for Level 3 measurements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted for any eliminated or modified disclosures. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance to determine the impact it may have on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). This ASU eliminated most of the differences between accounting guidance for share-based compensation granted to nonemployees and the guidance for share-based compensation granted to employees. The ASU supersedes the guidance for nonemployees and expands the scope of the guidance for employees to include both. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance to determine the impact it may have on the Company’s financial statements.

Management believes this claim to be without merit as it is management’s position that Boustead has been paid in full for the services provided and that no further cash or warrants are owed. The JAMS arbitration is scheduled for the end of January 2020.

We have denied that we owe Boustead any additional cash or warrants and have filed motions to dismiss these claims as well as filed counterclaims against Boustead. We plan to continue to vigorously defend the Company against these claims.

9.	Convertible Debt

$2,200,000 Secured Convertible Note

On November 13, 2018, we issued face value $2,200,000 5% Senior Convertible Notes issued at a 10% original issue discount along with 3,666,666 warrants for net proceeds of $2,000,000. Cash fees paid for financing costs were $360,772. The Note is secured by all of our assets and accrues interest at 5% per annum, payable in cash at maturity. However, the principal amount may be converted at the option of the holder at any time during the term to maturity into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.60 per share subject to adjustment for capital reorganization events and subsequent sales by the Company of shares of its common stock at a price per share below $0.60. The Note also embodies certain traditional default provisions that are linked to credit or interest risks, such as bankruptcy proceedings, liquidation events and corporate existence. We have concluded that the embedded conversion option is not indexed to our stock due to the down-round protection features afforded to the holder. Therefore, the embedded conversion option is subject to classification in our financial statement in liabilities at fair value both at inception and subsequently pursuant to ASC 815.

In connection with the issuance of the Note, we issued the holders warrants to purchase our common stock. The warrant is exercisable until November 13, 2021 for 3,666,666 of shares at a purchase price of $0.75 per share subject to adjustment for capital reorganization events and subsequent sales by the Company of shares of its common stock at a price per share below $0.75. We have concluded that the warrants are not indexed to our stock due to the down-round protection. Accordingly, our analysis resulted in the conclusion that these warrants require classification in our financial statements in liabilities at fair value both at inception and subsequently pursuant to ASC 815.

Additionally, we issued our placement agents warrants to purchase our common stock. The warrant is exercisable until December 12, 2023 for 733,333 of shares at a purchase price of $0.75 per share subject to adjustment for capital reorganization events and subsequent sales by the Company of shares of its common stock at a price per share below $0.75. We have concluded that the warrants are not indexed to our stock due to the down-round protection. Accordingly, our analysis resulted in the conclusion that these warrants require classification in our financial statements in liabilities at fair value both at inception and subsequently pursuant to ASC 815.

Accounting for the Secured Convertible Notes

We have evaluated the terms and conditions of the secured convertible notes under the guidance of ASC 815. Because the economic characteristics and risks of the equity-linked conversion options are not clearly and closely related to a debt-type host, the conversion features require classification and measurement as derivative financial instruments. The other embedded derivative feature, down-round protection, was also not considered clearly and closely related to the host debt instruments. Further, these features individually were not afforded the exemption normally available to derivatives indexed to a company’s own stock. Accordingly, our evaluation resulted in the conclusion that this compound derivative financial instrument requires bifurcation and liability classification, at fair value. The compound derivative financial instrument consists of (i) the embedded conversion features and the (ii) down-round protection features. Current standards contemplate that the classification of financial instruments requires evaluation at each report date.

The following tables reflect the allocation of the purchase on the financing dates:

Secured Convertible Notes	$2,200,000 Face Value
Face Value	$	2,200,000
Debt discount		(1,909,280	)
Carrying value	$	290,720

The carrying value of the secured convertible notes at March 31, 2019 was $289,720 and the carrying value at March 31, 2018 was $0.00.

Discounts (premiums) on the convertible notes arise from (i) the allocation of basis to other instruments issued in the transaction, (ii) fees paid directly to the creditor and (iii) initial recognition at fair value, which is lower than face value. Discounts (premiums) are amortized through charges (credits) to interest expense over the term of the debt agreement. Amortization of debt discounts amounted to $290,720 during the period from inception to March 31, 2019.

In addition to the debt discounts, cash paid for financing costs of $342,694 and the fair value of placement agent warrants issued of $415,307 was charged to interest expense.

Derivative Liabilities

The carrying value of the Compound Embedded Derivative and Warrant Derivative Liabilities are on the balance sheet, with changes in the carrying value being recorded as Derivative Loss on the income statement. The components of the compound embedded derivative and warrant derivative liabilities as of March 31, 2019 are:

Our financings giving rise to derivative financial instruments	Indexed Shares		Fair Values
Compound embedded derivatives:
$2,200,000 face value secured convertible notes due November 13, 2019		3,666,667	$	1,770,148

Fair Value Considerations

GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. As presented in the tables below, this hierarchy consists of three broad levels:

	Level 1 valuations :	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
	Level 2 valuations :	Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable.
	Level 3 valuations :	Significant inputs to valuation model are unobservable.

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis

Financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below and disclosed on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2019.

			Fair Value Measurement Using Level 3 Inputs Total
	Amount at Fair Value		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
31-Mar-19
Liabilities
Derivative liability – conversion feature	$	1,770,148	$	-	$	-	$	1,770,148
Derivative liability – warrants		3,479,195		-		-		3,479,195
Total	$	5,249,343	$	-	$	-	$	5,249,343

The table below provides a summary of the changes in fair value, including net transfers in and/or out of all financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the periods ended March 31,2019:

	Amount
Issuances to debt discount	$	2,200,000
Issuances to interest expense		4,975,091
Conversions to paid in capital		0
Warrant exercises		0
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities		(1,666.722	)
Change in fair value of warrant liabilities		(259.026	)
	$	5,249,343

(Expressed in U.S. dollars)

The fair value of the derivative conversion features and warrant liabilities as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were calculated using a Monte-Carlo option model valued with the following assumptions:

	31-Mar-19
	Amount
Dividend yield		0	%
Expected volatility		106.9% - 257.3	%
Risk free interest rate		2.23% - 2.46	%
Contractual term (in years)		0.62 - 4.702
Conversion/Exercise price		$0.62 - $0.75

Changes in the observable input values would likely cause material changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments.

The features embedded in the secured convertible notes and the warrants were valued using a Monte Carlo based valuation model. The Monte Carlo valuation technique was utilized because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including the underlying price, exercise price, term, volatility, and risk-free interest-rate) that are necessary to fair value these instruments. For forward contracts that contingently require net-cash settlement as the principal means of settlement, we project and discount future cash flows applying probability-weighted to multiple possible outcomes. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock. Because derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.

Subsequent Events

On April 7, 2019, we entered into a software transfer agreement with Swiss Interactive for the purchase of the Licensed Software for consideration of $1,700,000, the consummation of which is contingent upon either the Company’s completion of a (i) any private placement offerings or registered public offerings pursuant to which the Company received proceeds in excess of $6,000,000 or (ii) any private or public offerings in connection with the listing of the Company’s securities on a national securities exchange (“Qualified Offering”). If the Company does not complete a Qualified Offering within six months of the execution date of the transfer agreement, such agreement becomes void and the Company and Swiss Interactive are required to continue to abide by the terms of the existing agreement on the Licensed Software.

On December 19, 2018, Mr. Bryan Whatley, filed the first amended complaint against the Company in the United States District Court in the District of Nevada for breach of contract in connection with its acting as a finder to assist the Company in finding potential investors. In their complaint, they sought damages in excess of $85,000 plus warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company filed an answer to the first amended complaint denying the existence of a contract between the Company and Mr. Whatley, among other things. Management believes this claim to be without merit as it is management’s position that there was no contract. We plan to continue to vigorously defend the Company against this claim. The deadline for Mr. Whatley to respond to the Company’s answer was April 12, 2019, and no such response was filed. On April 23, 2019, the Company filed a motion to dismiss with the United States District Court of the State of Nevada. We are currently awaiting for the court decision on the dismissal request.

Overview

We are an online gambling company. We offer persons (which we sometimes refer to as “players”) the ability to wager on a wide variety of esports events in a licensed and secure environment. Esports is the competitive playing of video games by amateur and professional teams for cash prizes. Esports event gambling involves players wagering online on the outcome of professional esports events. In the future, we intend to also offer players the ability to participate in video game tournaments for cash prizes.

We were incorporated in Nevada on July 22, 2008. Our company was engaged in a number of different enterprises up until May 20, 2013, when, pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of H&H Arizona in exchange for 50,000,000 shares of our common stock. From May 2013 until August 2018, our operations were limited to designing, developing and testing our wagering systems. We launched our online esports wagering website (www.vie.gg) in August 2018. We believe we are currently the only online gambling company focused on esports to offer bet exchange style wagering, PvP betting, on professional esports events.

Esports is video games played competitively for spectators, typically by professional gamers. Esports typically takes the form of organized, multiplayer video games that include real-time strategy, fighting, first-person shooter, and multiplayer online battle arena games. A well-known example of an Esport game is Call of Duty. Currently, however, the three largest selling esports games are Dota 2, League of Legends (both multiplayer online battle arena games) and Counter Strike: Global Offensive (a first-person shooter game). Other popular games include Smite, StarCraft II, Call of Duty¸ Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone and Fortnite. Esports also includes games which can be played, primarily by amateurs, in multiplayer competitions on the on the Sony PlayStation, Microsoft Xbox and WII (Nintendo), and Halo (343 Industries). Most major professional esports events and a wide range of amateur esports events are broadcast live via streaming services including, twitch.tv, azubu.tv, ustream.tv and youtube.com.

According to Newzoo, a global leader in esports, games and mobile intelligence, the total global esports audience will reach 453.8 million in 2019. Esports Enthusiasts, which are people who watch professional esports content at least once a month, will make up 201.2 million of the total up from 143.2 million in 2017, with a projected compound annual growth rate CAGR (2017-2022) of +15.7% to reach almost 297 million in 2022. The number of occasional esports viewers, (people who watch professional esports content less than once a month), is expected to reach 252.6 million in 2019, up from 221.6 million in 2018, and is projected to grow with a CAGR of +12.6% to surpass 347 million in 2022. The number of people who are aware of esports worldwide is expected to reach 1.8 billion in 2019, up from 1.6 billion in 2018. China is expected to contribute most to global esports awareness, with 500.2 million people aware of esports in 2019. The increasing prominence of esports as a mainstream entertainment industry is driving the growth in awareness in most regions. Audience and awareness growth in the emerging regions of Latin America, Middle East and Africa, Southeast Asia, and Rest of Asia is largely driven by improving IT infrastructure and urbanization. The rise of new franchises, such as PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS or PubG, is an important global growth factor. The influx of millennials should further drive the growth of the industry’s audience.

In 2018, there were 737 major events that together generated $54.7 million in ticket revenues, down from $58.9 million in 2017 while in 2017 there were 588 major esports events. The total prize money of all esports events held in 2017 reached $112 million, breaking the $100 million mark for the first year. Total prize money in 2018 reached $150.8 million, an increase from 2017’s $112 million. The League of Legends World Championship was 2018’s biggest tournament by live viewership hours on Twitch, with 53.8 million hours. It also produced $1.9 million in ticket revenues. The Overwatch League was the most-watched league by live viewership hours on Twitch, generating 79.5 million hours.

Forbes magazine projects fans of esports will wager $23 billion on professional esports events by 2020 and that in 2019, $897.2 million in revenues, or 82% of the total market, will come from brand investments (media rights, advertising, and sponsorship). This will increase to $1.5 billion by 2022, making up 87% of total esports revenues.

Although official competitions have long been a part of video game culture, participation and spectatorship of such events have seen a global surge in popularity over the last few years with the rapid growth of online streaming over the last few years. The advent of online streaming technology has turned esports into a global industry that includes professional players and teams competing in major events that are simultaneously watched in person in stadiums (which are often sold out), and by online viewers (which regularly exceed 1,000,000 viewers for major tournaments). The impact has been so significant, that many video game developers now build features into their games designed to facilitate competition.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not required.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of March 31, 2019, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive/principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses identified and described below.

Management identified the following four material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of March 31, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:

1. Our documentation with respect to our internal control policies and procedures is not adequate. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as of the period ending March 31, 2019. We plan to progressively implement the written policies and procedures commencing in the immediate future.

2. We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Based on the current magnitude of our operations, it is impractical to employ sufficient staff to fully address the separation of duties issue. As the business plan is implemented and additional staff is required, we will be able to and intend to address this identified weakness.

3. Effective controls over the control environment have not been fully implemented. Specifically, management has not developed and effectively communicated to employees its accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, our Board of Directors has only two independent members. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness. As the expansion plans are implemented, we intend to communicate our accounting policies and procedures to our employees.

4. We did not maintain sufficient personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge, experience and training in the application of GAAP commensurate with our complexity and our financial accounting and reporting requirements. This control deficiency is pervasive in nature. Further, there is a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the financial statements including disclosures will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis as a result.

The Company plans to initiate a program to address the above weakness. While segregation of duties is very difficult in a smaller company. The Company has an internal policy that all major expenditures must be approved by a majority of the Board of Directors. In addition, the Company has constituted an Audit Committee, consisting of two non-management directors with an Independent Director as the Chair.

To address the material weaknesses identified, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

As part of the implementation strategy for the expansion of the Company we have engaged a third-party firm to assist us with the development of any additional systems required. We intend to remedy our material weakness with regard to insufficient segregation of duties by hiring additional employees as funding becomes available to implement the business plan in order to segregate duties in a manner that establishes effective internal controls. All such required remedies are dependent on having the financial resources available to complete them.

Notwithstanding the above, our principal executive officers do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive officers have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at doing so, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in internal controls.

No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, the period ended March 31, 2019, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are a defendant or plaintiff in various legal actions that arise in the normal course of business.

In September 2018, Boustead Securities, LLC (“Boustead”) notified us via letter of a claim that they were owed $192,664, as well as warrants to purchase 1,417,909 shares of our common stock as compensation for their acting as the placement agent for the sale of our securities between June 2017 and 2018. This matter was then brought to JAMS pursuant to an arbitration clause in the placement agent agreement entered into by the Company and Boustead. It is our position that we have paid Boustead in full for the services it provided to us. We have denied that we owe Boustead any additional cash or warrants and have filed motions to dismiss these claims as well as filed counterclaims against Boustead. We plan to continue to vigorously defend the Company against these claims.

The JAMS arbitration is scheduled for the end of January 2020.

With the exception of the foregoing, we are not involved in any material disputes and do not have any material litigation matters.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We believe there are no changes that constitute material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 , filed with the SEC on May 2, 2019.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

There have been no unregistered sales of equity securities that have not been previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K since the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on March 7, 2019.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosure

Not Applicable.

Item 5. Other Information

On March 5, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted the Amended and Restated By-Laws of Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. (the “Bylaws”), a copy of which is attached to Exhibit 3.2 to the Company’s registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC on May 2, 2019, and incorporated by reference herein. The Company’s previous bylaws required a unanimous vote of the shareholders to take any actions which required shareholder consent outside of a meeting. The Bylaws no longer provide for such a vote and also includes provisions allowing us to indemnify our directors, officers and certain other persons in certain circumstances.
