TheStreet CEO Callaway comments on second quarter

TheStreet.con Inc. chief executive officer David Callaway made the following comments during the company’s second quarter earnings conference call:

Consumer events also helped, and we got several more in the pipeline for the second half of the year that we believe will help us significantly exceed last year’s total event revenue of $400,000. As Eric said, we’ve already booked twice that for this year, and we’ve got high hopes of doing a lot more.

Some of the new product highlights from Q2 include the launch of our new subscription product, Retirement Daily, with Robert Powell, which is off to a great start with a big event planned on that later on this year, a valuable complement to our existing market-focused products. Also we broke into the AI universe in the second quarter, with our first voice product, a partnership with SpokenLayer to deliver our content to Google Home, Alexa, and other popular voice-activated products.

Finally, we complimented the project to get out news – finally, we completed the project to get our news on the Symphony platform for institutional investors, and we just signed a similar deal with Money.Net, another new FinTech platform.
