Good morning, everyone. I think I'm live and in color here. Looks like we got some people in the room. Great. Let's get started. Welcome, everyone. Glad to see many of you joining in for, I guess, we started calling these first Thursdays. I guess this is what, the third Wednesday or something, that we need to change the name. Actually, I want to talk about that real quickly. We're going to stop on the exact first Thursday. The reason for that is that, as many of you are aware, we've kind of been in a quiet period. The reason I say kind of is that the definition of exactly what's possible via Chtrbox, specifically in terms of publicizing things and via QYOU Media as a shareholder, but not the direct listing company, it's a gray area.
We've chosen to be cautious about that and limiting in terms of the amount of PR and IR and other things that we're doing on the QYOU Media side as the majority shareholder of the Chtrbox entity when it's listed. As a result of that, we've been extremely cautious. Even I've gotten messages from shareholders about the fact that we haven't been putting out much information or news. That has been the reason. Once we get to the approval of the final prospectus for Chtrbox, that will sort of open up the floodgates for us to be able to be much more public in our promotion of the entirety of both businesses.
As I've told many of you, you can expect to see a much more proactive and regular drumbeat of news and information that will be coming from both QYOU Media in general, QYOU USA specifically, Chtrbox specifically, as we head into the September time period and through the end of the year and going into 2026. I'll be talking momentarily about sort of why we're excited about that and what's happening in the business. What we'll do is we will make announcements either in specific press releases through verbiage like the press release we just put out that announces this call and/or on our Discord, X, et cetera, most of the outlets that we're on. Keep a heads up for that.
We're going to be looking forward to minimum once a month of having calls like this and either pre-tapings or live events like this where we're talking to shareholders and updating them. It probably and hopefully will be even more often than that as we move into the final quarter of 2025 and, as I said, into 2026. By the way, I've got some notes over here. The way we set this up today, I'm not able to put up a presentation on the screen. If I keep glancing over here to look at things, that's why I'm looking to my right. I think the big piece of news, obviously, that came out is that we did receive approval on the draft Red Herring Prospectus. That's the draft of the final prospectus. It has been a long and arduous process.
We're extremely proud of the entire team and the work that's been done from both our India team, the Canadian team, the U.S. team, the advisors that we've been using, et cetera. It's been said that the India exchanges are one of the most difficult ones in the world to finally get approval on and get listed on. We certainly have gone through a lot to get to this point. We are absolutely thrilled and excited about what's happened recently with our approval and what's happening right now as we charge ahead to get approval of the final, what's called the RHP, the Red Herring Prospectus, which is the penultimate document that's used to do everything moving forward up to the final listing and going live on the exchange. That's the pricing, the commitment from investors, et cetera, et cetera, that precedes that.
We're looking forward to that process beginning very, very soon. We've missed a lot of dates. I know that's been frustrating for both ourselves internally and for a lot of you as shareholders, or we've had delays or other things that have happened. We think that we're kind of finally in the point where we're extremely confident and know that we're moving forward here. We're in that process with the RHP. The reason Raj is not on this call and increasingly he will be joining me on these calls is because, again, we're in this sort of quasi gray quiet period before the RHP is approved. Once that happens, we'll let shareholders know. We will move into the final processes that are involved around getting listed on the BSE Limited MSE Exchange. After this long wait, the game is finally about to begin. We couldn't be more thrilled for that.
The other thing that I wanted to talk about this morning a little bit is we've received some questions about what's happened with the companies and what's taking place in the overall business. The quarter that we're currently in, which is our fiscal Q3 for QYOU Media, it's fiscal Q2 for Chatterbox Technologies Private Ltd and India, is the first quarter that, as a management team and as a company, we've been fully committed and fully engaged in the business of the creator economy and influencer marketing.
This has come as not only a real breath of fresh air for, I think, everybody in terms of the focus and the progress that we're making and believe we'll continue to make, but also in terms of our ability to be able to really drive the limited resources that we've had and the resources that we expect to grow and continue as we build the business to really focus on this area of growth in the creator economy. As most of you are aware, influencer marketing is probably one of the biggest areas of growth and focus around the world for getting messages out for brands to their potential customers.
We have a running start in this business, to put it mildly, in terms of the fact that both Chatterbox Technologies Private Ltd and India and QYOU USA here with the headquarters in Los Angeles have been at it for seven or eight years now actively in terms of building our business in these areas. We now have assembled a who's who list of blue chip Fortune 500 clients and partners that we're performing marketing campaigns for both here in the U.S. and in India. We are seeing the traction start to really grow in terms of the emphasis that's being put on by brands all over the world to focus on the creator economy.
That's also manifesting itself increasingly in terms of M&A activity that is taking place in the space in terms of many of the largest agencies in the world, Publicis being one of them that's been very, very proactive and active over the last 6 to 12 months and is increasing that activity in terms of M&A transactions and growing the power of what they're doing in the influencer space. Why is that? First of all, any of us who are on this call or that have kids or anybody who's certainly between the age of 15 and 35 knows that they're stuck to their cell phones 24/7. The impact that platforms like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, YouTube Shorts, X, Facebook, WhatsApp are having on influencing purchase intent is it just keeps getting bigger and bigger. There's sort of no stopping it at this point.
It's embedded into the fabric of every agency, every brand, every product marketing campaign that people are looking for. We're seeing that both in terms of increased spend in campaigns, and we're also seeing the depth and breadth of things that are happening in the space. Again, both here in the U.S. and in India, it's evident in both markets. It's also a global phenomenon. As you keep an eye on us and what we're doing, you'll see increasingly more and more campaigns that are globally oriented. One of the big priorities for us going forward is to increase the work that happens between Chatterbox Technologies Private Ltd and QYOU USA on a joint effort as we get campaigns that are spread out across the world through North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, really South America, all over the world. We're seeing this more and more.
The other thing that we're also seeing is that more and more customers are coming to us for what we refer to as AOR or longer-term deals, AOR standing for Agency of Record. These are increasing requests from many of the people we're working with where they want to create a longer and more sustained relationship, not only with us as the company that they're working with to produce these campaigns, but also with the creators that are involved in doing it. We are, in both companies, increasingly engaged in responses to proposals that can have 6, 12-month time cycles in them, where the goal is to have creators and campaigns that are integrated and tied together and sustained, is I guess the word I would use, in a much more effective way for a brand to be using that on an ongoing basis.
This is another really strong indication that the companies, again, all over the world are looking to use these platforms as a regular advertising medium, much as many years ago people used television campaigns, print campaigns, even billboard and outdoor campaigns that they might have used to do. This is now shifting into the creator space. Those of you who follow the creator economy more carefully and influencer marketing more carefully might have been reading recently about the fact that there are increasingly more creators that are being directly used by brands or through agencies like our own that are contracted for content deals and more narrative storytelling, even in some cases direct television and style shows and programming that are being created that are brand-driven.
All of this is creating a tremendous amount of momentum in the overall shift of ad dollars and spend against the markets and the advertising vehicles that we use at QYOU USA and at Chatterbox Technologies Private Ltd. This supports a lot of our excitement, enthusiasm, and belief that we're sort of in the right place at the right time with established businesses and customers in both places. We are not giving specific guidance for Q3 at the moment, but we are very confident that shareholders will be pleasantly surprised with the impact of what it's meant for us to not only ride the wave of all these things that I'm talking about, but also as a company have a direct focus on these two business areas going forward. There is a lot going on behind the scenes.
Much of this, as shareholders, you will be hearing more and more about. I'm just checking my time right now. You will undoubtedly be hearing much more from us, much more vocally going forward than what you've seen over the somewhat frustrating first eight months of 2025. We are all excited about that inside the company, and we are all anxious. We've been at the starting gate for a long time here. We're all anxious to be able to get out in front of all of you and both to the existing investor base, to a new base of investors here in India. We expect to see a lot more of you both personally and in terms of the output of information that you're going to see as shareholders.
In between now and when that happens, we will keep all of you updated on progress between the announcement that we just made on Monday about the approval through the actual go live listing for Chatterbox Technologies Private Ltd. We're not giving any specific dates for any of this out yet. We're hoping that we can under-promise and over-deliver a bit more than we have over the last sort of time period. We are looking forward to having completion of this very, very soon and sharing news with you about all of that. One of the other things that I wanted to cover a little bit that I had some questions on from people was about what is the sort of timeline and process going forward. We have successfully diversified or divested, rather, excuse me, divested ourselves of our broadcast channel business in India.
We are still running the streaming channels there. We're in discussions with a variety of people about those now. We have made dormant anything and everything around the gaming business. We are looking to have sort of a bow tied around all of that in terms of receipt of funds from any transactions that relate around that by the end of 2025. It may drift a little bit into 2026. From an operational perspective, again, the quarter that we're in now, Q3, will be the first quarter that shareholders are able to see results that will reflect the sort of renewed and reborn focus of what we're doing as a company. Q2, which we'll be releasing results for at the end of next week, will be the final quarter that will reflect any sort of drag and carryover from the preceding quarters because revenue will also be lost from those.
There'll be a little bit slight dip, as many of you are aware of and know, in the overall top line revenue numbers that we've had when those businesses were included. We think that's a very, very short-term thing, or we know that's a very, very short-term thing. The bottom line results, as we will see going forward here, will be much improved by not having the investment capital that we were using previously to support those businesses kind of dragging us down. The turn, if you will, of the business from an economic standpoint, we are seeing in real time right now. It's both refreshing and exciting in terms of the financial impact that this is going to have on our business as we move forward. In addition to that, obviously, the IPO will be fueling more capital into the Chatterbox business specifically.
That part of the world, both India, Southeast Asia, UAE, these are areas that are impacted in much the same way that we were speaking about here a moment ago in a general basis globally. That part of the world is also expanding very, very rapidly in the area of influencer marketing. Unilever, which is a client of ours in India, not yet a client of ours here, you may have heard me say previously, their CEO made an announcement earlier this year that Unilever is expecting to spend 50% of their marketing spend for their brand partners in the influencer marketing area in the creator economy. That's incredible. There's never been anything anywhere near that % of spend that's happened in the space. This is why we think that we're extremely well positioned to take advantage of that with all the things that I was talking about previously.
A couple of questions that came in previously that we did not have a chance to answer on the last call. One of the questions was about, are we looking to globally expand and where are we going to be? What are the goals for Q? The real goal for Q is to drive more revenue growth and drive more bottom line EBITDA growth. That's what we're always looking to do. I think what we see is a massive opportunity that sits at our doorstep both in North America. We're doing actually a lot more campaigns for some of our clients in Canada now in addition to the U.S. Obviously, India is one of the fastest growing markets in the world, if not the fastest growing market in the world in terms of consumer consumption.
There was a report that came out a little while ago that I had in my notes. The Economic Times of India projects that the, and you can Google this and look at it online, they project that consumer spending influenced by the creator economy will reach $1 trillion by 2030 in India. These are the types of projections. There's also a study that I think you can get online if you look at it from Boston Consulting Group about the growth of the creator economy in India that some of you may want to check out. These are not things that we're just saying or that we're just talking about. These are facts that are being stated and studied by large companies like The Economic Times and Boston Consulting Group that are supporting everything that we've been seeing happen in real time in the marketplace.
I think we're going to be aggressive in terms of what we can do from a growth perspective. The first place that we'll be aggressive is in getting more proactive and leveraging greater spend with the clients and partners that we currently are in business with in both territories. As we move forward, we will be looking to expand that in more and more territories outside of those two as campaigns that we run start to expand out into places in other territories around the world. I think that's the sort of answer to that question. I think I answered the second one as well, which is, you know, where do we see the business going in five years? We expect to remain focused on this particular market because we think the growth will be extraordinary. We also expect to be a much larger company along the way.
The businesses are both growing in terms of both revenue and profit margin. We expect that to continue to build and build and build as we go forward. Someone asked we had approximately 200 employees in India. With the shutdown of the two other business units, we now have about 110 employees in India. We have approximately 35 here in North America. The grand total would be approximately 145 employees in the combined businesses at present. I also believe I've gotten an email that's come in here a moment ago that might have a couple of other questions. If you can stand by for one second, I'm going to look for those. I think, you know, there's some questions about specific questions around the share price and the shareholdings, etc. We're not able yet.
This is going to change very, very soon in terms of information that we'll be able to give around total shares, valuation, pricing, etc., of what's happening with the public offering in India. We're not in a position to be able to do that during this phone call, but that's the type of news that we'll be sharing with shareholders as we go forward. We do believe that the growth of both businesses is strong enough and pronounced enough to provide financial results, which will drive the business going forward. As I mentioned, Q2 for QYOU Media of this year is the last quarter that we're sort of in that transition of getting out of the drag from the businesses that are gone now and into the focus that we've been in since the beginning of this quarter in both markets. I think shareholders will be seeing all of that.
We may give some limited guidance before we report the end of Q3. We haven't made decisions on that yet, but we'll see. Nevertheless, with that sort of vague answer to your question, which I apologize for, but just can't say more than that now, the bottom line reality is that, you know, we feel that we're massively undervalued at this point. We're not even trading as a company as a valuation at 50% of our revenue. As most shareholders have seen, we've been increasing the results, financial results quarterly going forward, and we will continue to do that, particularly with Q3 of this year.
The bottom line is that through the financial performance of the businesses as we move forward, the listing of Chatterbox, the increased amount of visibility that you'll see from us from both a PR and an IR perspective, I plan on being over in India in the month of September and working with Raj on all these fronts. I also intend very likely on doing a roadshow across Canada and a couple of cities in the U.S. in the October-November timeframe. Basically, a lot of the things that we think are necessary and important to do to drive the visibility of what we're doing as a business going forward will all be happening.
The frustration that I've had personally and that a lot of you have had as shareholders of the lackluster share price, the lack of information and news coming from us, I'll say it again, the train is about to leave the station. I think you'll be much happier with the flow of news that's coming, the positive aspect of that news, and I think you'll be much happier ultimately with the results on the value creation that comes from people recognizing what our business is. Jace is walking in. There's another question here, what percentage of draft prospectus? Part of the process that we've been in with this prospectus is that there's been a much stronger tightening of the exchanges when there are reviews and in the notes and in what they call the queries that come back about the draft Red Herring Prospectus that are filed.
The number of companies that get through the process has gone down dramatically in the last year or year and a half. We're very fortunate to have gotten to this point, and it's part of the reason that it's taken so long to get here. In addition to that, what I'll say, and we said this way back in February when we originally filed, I'm not sure if people realize that we qualify as what's called a QIB investment for Chatterbox Technologies Private Ltd in India, which means a minimum of 50% of our investors have to be institutional investors. That's not something that every small-cap MSE company receives in the public markets in India. That's a feather in our cap for the faith and belief that institutional investors have in what's going to happen with our business going forward.
The reaction in the India market to us being approved has been very, very strong. We're super confident that the momentum that's going to start to get generated here in a very, very short time period is going to be something that all shareholders are going to benefit from and be happy about. It's been a real challenge to get to where we are today. We've been cash strapped for a long time. We've been limited in terms of the news that we can put out. These are things that we're welcoming to see change in the last part of this year and going forward. That's going to be a wrap on today's presentation. We will again be putting out more news that you'll be seeing from us. We hope that all of you as investors can get much more excited about what's happening for us going forward.
Thank you so much for joining us this morning. Keep your eye on QYOU Media. A lot of good news is about to come. Thank you so much. Bye-bye.
