AGAE said that total revenues during the fiscal year were “primarily driven” by an increase in sponsorship revenue related to its esports facility HyperX Arena Las Vegas (the company renewed its naming right deal with HyperX), Season Two of Elevated, and two months of revenue from its October 2023 strategic investment in Z-Tech.

AGAE produced 64 events in Q4, with 30 proprietary events and 34 third-party events. Third-party events included the Omen Showcase Party, World Esports Day – TwitchCon Afterparty, EA Sports F1 23 Las Vegas Showrun, and All MLB Team Awards Show.

In November 2023, AGAE closed on a strategic investment in casual mobile game developer and operator Z-Tech. As of Oct.31, 2023, AGAE took a controlling interest in the Board of the company for the “purpose of financial statement consolidation and became the largest shareholder of Z-Tech.”

In December, Elite Fun Entertainment Co. Ltd. agreed to a strategic investment in AGAE. Also in December, AGAE announced the formation of Skyline Music Entertainment, a joint venture based in Macau, with AGAE subsidiary Allied Experiential Entertainment, Inc., owning 51% of Skyline Music Entertainment.
