The nexus of keeping cash available for loans and using our sourcing networks has positively affected all aspects of our business from the income statement to the balance sheet," commented Chief Executive Officer Douglas M. Polinsky.

"The additional opportunity to provide third party financing to the buyers on gunbroker.com, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ammo, Inc. (NASDAQ: POWW) has the potential to dramatically grow our loan book in a compressed amount of time."
