## Gold.com Combines SilverTowne and Sunshine Mint

Enabling greater control over product availability pricing stability across our supply chain," said Gregory N. Roberts, Chief Executive Officer.

Expanding direct-to-consumer retail sales and wholesale trading spreads boosted overall gross profit even as lower forward sales lowered total reported revenue. Cary Dickson, Chief Financial Officer, said the increase came from gross profits earned by both the wholesale and ancillary services segment and the direct-to-consumer segment. Higher order values and acquired customer bases drove margin expansion across divisions.

## Gold.com's Acquisition Plans

Roberts said slower commodity markets depress target company valuations, giving Gold.com leverage to acquire assets on favorable terms.

Management is prioritizing operational synergies and expense control while evaluating new strategic buyouts across the precious metals ecosystem.
