Thanks for the update. I bought a token share of NTN for $3.20 a while back, and just a few days ago it was sitting at $1.00. I could have made a cool $4 on my investment if I had sold it in after-hours trading.

"CARLSBAD, Calif., Dec. 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- NTN Buzztime, Inc. (NYSE American: NTN) today announced that its board of directors is exploring and evaluating strategic alternatives focused on maximizing shareholder value, including, among other things, a potential acquisition of the company or its assets." I take that to mean BT is putting itself up for sale. Maybe to Ziosk, Presto or Tablesafe, all have presence in the big chain restaurant table top world. Or there is HQ if they are just trying to sell their question database. The stock is up 17% today. |

Well that's the type of announcement that will cause employees to send out resumes. Maybe BWW gave them an answer. |

Some previously unmentioned potential suitors: LiveXLive or Reach Media - NTN stock is up 18% today compared to the DOW being up only 0.10% Disclaimer: I am not an insider and only offer this speculation based on this article from yesterday. This looks like it could have potential to fit in with Buzztime just as much as a competing restaurant tablet company: LOS ANGELES, Dec. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- LiveXLive Media, Inc. (NASDAQ: LIVX) ("LiveXLive"), a global digital media company focused on live entertainment, today announced a multi-year content and broadcasting partnership with ReachTV, the first Nielsen-rated, linear, short-form entertainment network for viewers on the go. LiveXLive's programming will be featured across ReachTV's growing global network, including ReachTV's In Airport Network, which boasts a reach of 100+ million travelers every month. LiveXLive's music and lifestyle programming will bring bands, brands, and fans together worldwide. http://ir.livexlive.com/file/Index?KeyFile=401378866 So why do I think this could possibly relate to Buzztime? First, they put themselves up for sale last year. Second, the LIVX founder, chairman and CEO Robert Ellin was the only major insider Buying up NTN stock in September and October when it was tanking and impending the loss of BWW https://www.livexlive.com/about https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ ... r-activity |

Yesterday NTN went from $1.25 to $4.50. Then as high as 7ish after hours following the report the NYSE had signed off on their plan to bring the company into compliance. Today trading was halted for a bit and it’s known that BT filed a form 8-K indicating another party is interested in a transaction. Regardless, something big is happening. |

Stock price is all over the place. Spread has got to be enormous. For the second straight day volume is in the millions which seems preposterous. |

https://seekingalpha.com/filing/5049426 "On June 12, 2020, NTN Buzztime, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a non-binding letter of intent for a potential strategic transaction with a third party. The letter of intent is only a mutual indication of interest in the potential transaction by both parties and does not represent any legally binding commitment or obligation on the part of either party with respect to the potential transaction. The terms of the potential transaction, if any, are subject to a number of contingencies, including the performance of due diligence and the negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement. No assurances are, or can be given, that the parties will enter into a definitive agreement for the potential transaction, or that even if such agreement is entered into, that the potential transaction will be consummated. Entering into the letter of intent was a product of the Company’s previously announced strategic process. The Company does not intend to disclose additional details regarding the strategic process, or the letter of intent, unless and until further disclosure is appropriate or necessary." A potential buyer, or perhaps a potential chain thinking about installing it? TFM |

It could be both: a chain looking to buy the company for the product and whatever IT NTN may have on its newest tablets. At its current market cap it’s not the biggest stretch. |

Or some entertainment tech co. wants to make the next HQ trivia app and BT has the huge library of questions ready to go and a functional app. |
