### Cautionary Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) may contain “forward-looking statements,” as that term is used in federal securities laws, about Good Gaming, Inc. (“GMER,” “we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company,” “management”) and its financial condition, results of operations and business. These statements include, among others:

- statements concerning the potential benefits that we may experience from our business activities and certain transactions we contemplate or have completed; and
- statements of GMER’s expectations, beliefs, future plans and strategies, anticipated developments and other matters that are not historical facts. These statements may be made expressly in this Form 10-Q. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “opines,” or similar expressions used in this Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause GMER’s actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by GMER in those statements. The most important facts that could prevent GMER from achieving its stated goals include, but are not limited to, the following:

(a) volatility or decline of our stock price;

(b) potential fluctuation of quarterly results;

(c) failure of GMER to achieve revenues or profits;

(d) inadequate capital to continue or expand our business, and inability to raise additional capital or financing to implement our business plans;

(e) decline in demand for GMER’s products and services;

(f) rapid adverse changes in markets;

(g) litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties against us, including but not limited to challenges to our intellectual property rights; and

(h) insufficient revenues to cover operating costs.

There is no assurance that GMER will be profitable, able to successfully develop, manage or market its products and services, be able to attract or retain qualified executives and personnel, able to obtain customers for its products or services, additional dilution in outstanding stock ownership may be incurred due to the issuance of more shares, warrants and stock options, the exercise of outstanding warrants and stock options, or the conversion of convertible promissory notes, and other risks inherent in GMER’s businesses.

Because the statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. GMER cautions you not to place undue reliance on the statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. The cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that GMER or persons acting on its behalf may issue. GMER does not undertake any obligation to review or confirm analysts’ expectations or estimates or to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

#### Overview

The Company was incorporated on November 3, 2008 under the laws of the State of Nevada, to engage in certain business services. Our goal is to become a leading tournament gaming provider as well as an online destination, targeting over 250 million esports players and participants worldwide that want to compete at the high school or college level. We are a developmental stage business, have generated limited revenues to date and have a history of operating losses.

The Good Gaming platform was established in early 2014 by its founding members who recognized the need that millions of gamers worldwide desired to play games at competitive levels. The founders recognized that there was no structure or organization on a large scale for amateur gamers while professional esports was quickly establishing itself.

Good Gaming is effectively building the business infrastructure for the rapidly growing esports industry, similar to the high school and college athletic industry. Good Gaming is designed to be the gateway for amateur esports athletes to compete at the semi-professional level, improve their gaming skills, and interact with veteran gamers globally in a destination site and social networking framework.

Good Gaming differs from the professional level of the esports industry by focusing on more than approximately 250 million gamers that fall below the professional level but are above the casual level, classified as “amateurs.” Good Gaming distinguishes itself from its direct and indirect competitors by being the first company to offer multi-game, multi-console services at the amateur esports level. The Company is not exclusive to any particular hardware or software vendor.

On May 4, 2016, the Company announced that it had completed its first closed public beta testing of their 2.0 tournament platform to determine the functionality, speed, ease of use, and accuracy of the system and are preparing to enter into full-blown production.

On February 18, 2016, the Company, formerly HDS International Corp., acquired the assets of Good Gaming, Inc. from CMG Holdings Group, Inc. (OTCQB: CMGO). On that date, the Company’s former CEO, Paul Rauner, resigned. The Company appointed Vikram Grover to the positions of CEO and Director of the board of directors (the “Board”). Vikram Grover is a former Wall Street analyst and investment banker with more than 20 years of experience in telecommunications, media and technology. In addition, David Dorwart was elected by the majority shareholders to the Company’s Board. Mr. Dorwart is the Co-Founder and Chairman of Assist Wireless, Inc., a provider of lifeline wireless services to tens of thousands of subscribers primarily in the Midwest.

On June 27, 2017 the Board of Directors of the Company appointed David B. Dorwart as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. On June 21, 2017, Mr. Dorwart was appointed to serve as the Chairman of the Board of Directors. David B. Dorwart, Chairman and CEO of Good Gaming, Inc., brings over 31 years of start-up entrepreneurism and executive level management to the Company. Mr. Dorwart was a CoFounder and CEO of dPi Teleconnect, a prepaid wireless provider, for 10 years. During his tenure, he grew the company from a start-up to $75 million in revenues before selling the company. Over the last 9 years, he has been involved with several other successful projects including Assist Wireless, Brooklet Energy Distribution, PayGo Distributors and Britton & Associates. He is currently the Chairman and CoFounder of ViaOne Services, a company which specializes in wireless communications and provides intricate multi-faceted services for start-up companies utilizing industry experts. By virtue of the ownership of this Series C Preferred Stock, ViaOne owns the majority voting power of the Company.

On June 27, 2017, the Company also bolstered its Board of Directors with executive level professionals by adding two seasoned individuals who specialize in organization and finance as well as the branding and marketing of established and emerging organizations which are poised to show significant growth.

Domenic Fontana is currently Sr. Vice President of ViaOne Services and a new board member of the Company. He is an experienced CPA and financial executive who has worked in progressively more advanced executive roles throughout his career. Having worked at Verizon, Ebay and now ViaOne Services over the last 13 years, he has developed intimate and extensive knowledge of executive level management and the telecommunications industry. He has worked in all aspects of Finance, Accounting, Treasury, and Operations.

Jordan Majkszak Axt, a new board member, is a results-producing marketing professional with over 14 years of experience successfully developing marketing and branding strategies. He has been consistently noted by executives, colleagues, and journalists for his specific expertise in bringing products and services online with a comprehensive digital go-to-market strategy. He has previously held executive level positions as Director of Marketing for ProfitPoint Inc. and Clutch Holdings LLC. He is currently Sr. Director of Marketing of ViaOne Services where he develops all marketing and customer acquisition strategies for 14 consumer facing brands.

On July 10, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors elected David Dorwart its CEO. Additionally, the Board of Directors approved to elect Domenic Fontana and Jordan Axt to the Company’s Board of Directors.

On August 8, 2017, the board of directors of the Company accepted Vikram Grover’s resignation as the Treasurer of the Company and as a member of the Board, effective immediately.

On August 8, 2017, the Board of the Company accepted Barbara Laken’s resignation as the Secretary of the Company and as a member on the Board, effective immediately.

On August 9, 2017, the Company announced a strategic review of its business, which prompted improvements to its business model and a reduction in expenses designed to accelerate its move to free cash flow generation.

On August 29, 2017, Eric Brown became the Chief Operating Officer.

In September of 2017, the Company began focusing on its Minecraft server by enhancing the development staff and launched an offering of microtransactions after it saw the opportunity to generate revenue without adding a great deal of overhead. The initial offering of microtransactions exceeded revenue expectations and the Company has continued to expand the Minecraft server offerings. The Company also began pursuing the acquisition of additional Minecraft servers that were already established to begin scaling this effort.

In March of 2017, the Company began exploring potential partnerships with various franchise opportunities related to both LAN centers and Virtual Reality centers. Financial analysis and research on these opportunities is ongoing.

On March 21, 2018, the Company acquired Crypto Strategies Group, Inc. for consideration of $500. The Company intends to diversify its business and enter into the cryptocurrency market through such acquisition.

On December 12, 2018, the Company dissolved Crypto Strategies Group, Inc.

In March 2019, the Company discontinued Minecade and Olimpo servers and decided to focus on Minecraft servers.

On March 11, 2019, Eric Brown resigned from the Chief Operating Officer’s position.

#### Technology

In 2016, the Company completed its 2.0 tournament platform, thereafter ran dozens of robotic internal test tournaments and held numerous free-to-play tournaments on large scales with its partner The Syndicate, the owner of the world’s longest running online gaming guild that had 1,200 members worldwide. Good Gaming conducted two closed public beta tournaments of hundreds of participants in May 2016 in order to fully vet the system. After making roughly 100 fixes and changes to the system, it now runs smoothly. The system is designed to scale to 512,000 concurrent competitors. The Company has updated the system to handle team tournaments, which will further expand its opportunity to popular titles that have tens of millions of active players and has recently launched titles that have the potential for cross-platform play among Gaming PC, Microsoft Xbox and Sony PlayStation.

In 2017, the Company ran hundreds of tournaments on a regular basis with a dedicated customer base of over 30,000 members. Additionally, the Company expanded its website by offering content relevant to the member base with information relating to game play strategy and game news. This generated nearly 100,000 unique visits per month. In an effort to monetize that traffic, the Company employed the use of Google display advertising and tested a subscription model. After careful evaluation of the Company’s strategy, management decided to move away from free tournaments and custom content and focus on growing and monetizing our Minecraft server, which has grown substantially in popularity. This decision was a result of comprehensive competitive analysis and evaluations made in how the esports industry was shifting in its space. Tournaments and custom content are currently suspended while the Company grows revenue and focuses on expanding its efforts with Minecraft. The Company is also aggressively evaluating several business models and acquisition opportunities to resume its previous success as it is related to tournaments.

#### Business Strategy

In the past, our management team’s strategy was to be a full-service company endeavoring to provide best in class tournaments, the best platform on which they are played, and content that is all about the esports world. We have looked at this strategy and have changed the way we view our business.

As tournaments and investment in servers were not profitable to the company, we have decided to focus on Minecraft. We have a well-established server and will continue to devote resources to developing and modifying Minecraft assets by introducing new SkyBlock Seasons and Minecraft Prison server. We feel that we have learned how to monetize this and will be able to continue to grow and have it as a meaningful part of our business strategy.

#### Offices

Our executive offices are located at 415 McFarlan Rd, Suite 108, Kennett Square, PA 19501. Our telephone number is (888) 295-7279.

### Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which amends the existing accounting standards for leases. The new standard requires lessees to record a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet (with the exception of short-term leases). This new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this new standard effective January 1, 2019. Adoption did not have any effect on the Company as it does not have any leases.

The Company has implemented all other new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

### RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion on the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018. This means that our auditors believed there was substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months from the date of issuance of this going concern opinion unless we obtain additional capital. We generated little revenue in the past. We have completed the development of our website, sourced out suppliers for products to sell and sourced out customers to buy our products. Accordingly, we need to raise cash from sources other than operations. Our other source for cash at this time is investments by others in our company and the revenue we generate from the sales of our products. We need to raise cash to continue our project and build our operations.

### Plan of Operation – Milestones

We are at an early stage of our new business operations. Over the next twelve months, our primary target milestones include:

|  |  |
| ---: | --- |
| 1 | Continue to achieve substantial growth within our Minecraft division. This is a profitable center for us and we expect the continued growth of our existing server, good-gaming.com as well. |
| 2. | Continue to evaluate opportunities which have synergies to our existing business line. |
| 3 | Anticipate sustainable financial profitability by the end of fiscal year 2019. |

### Limited operating history and need for additional capital

There is limited historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance relating to our new business direction. We have generated little revenue. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and products.

### Results of Operations

#### The three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018

- **Operating Revenues**

We have generated $10,567 in revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $53,764 in revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2018, which reflects a decrease of $43,197 or 408%. Such decrease in revenues in the compared periods was primarily caused by discontinuation of Minecade and Olimpo servers.

- **Operating Expenses and Net Loss**

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were $234,419 compared with $246,837 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in operating expenses in the amount of $12,418 or 5% was attributed to decreases in general and administrative, contract labor, and professional fees, offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization expense.

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a net loss of $370,933 compared with a net loss of $507,097 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in net loss in the amount of $136,164 or 37% was attributed to the decrease in revenues and the change in value of the Company’s derivative liabilities.

#### The nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018

- **Working Capital**

|  | September 30, 2019 | September 30, 2018 |

- **Operating Revenues**

We have generated $38,395 in revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and $111,470 in revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2018, which reflects a decrease of $73,075 or 190%. Such decrease in revenues in the compared periods was primarily caused by the discontinuation of Minecraft and Olimpo servers.

- **Operating Expenses and Net Loss**

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $712,603 compared with $745,639 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in operating expenses in the amount of $33,036 or 4.6% was attributed to decreases in general and administrative, contract labor, and professional fees, offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization expense..

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a net loss of $817,286 compared with a net loss of $746,750 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in net loss in the amount of $70,536 or 15% was attributed to the decrease in revenues and operating expenses.

- **Liquidity and Capital Resources**

As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s cash balance consisted of $2,111 compared to cash balance of $3,662 as of September 30, 2018. The decrease in the cash balance was attributed to the decrease in financing that we received for day-to-day activities. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had $116,107 in total assets compared to total assets of $749,556 as at September 30, 2018. The decrease in total assets was attributable to the amortization of the assets purchased during the acquisition of Good Gaming, Inc.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had total liabilities of $2,549,045 compared with total liabilities of $2,029,668 as of September 30, 2018. The increase in liabilities was attributable to increase in financing and in derivative liabilities.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company has a working capital deficit of $2,529,434 compared with a working capital deficit of $2,007,177 as of September 30, 2018 with the increase in the working capital deficit attributed to an increase in financing the Company received for general working capital purposes.

### Cash flow from Operating Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company used $343,305 of cash for operating activities compared to the use of cash in an amount of $546,723 for operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in the use of cash for operating activities in the amount of $203,418 or 37% was attributed to the net decrease in derivative liabilities.

### Cash flow from Investing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company had $478of net cash provided by investing activities compared to $26,250 of net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in cash used in investing activities in the amount of $26,728 was due to the Company’s decision to use the limited servers.

### Cash flow from Financing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company received $332,489 of net cash provided by financing activities compared to $515,598 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities was due to the decline in proceeds from the sale of preferred stock and convertible debentures.

### Going Concern

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive acquisitions and activities. As such, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements without further financing.

### Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2019, we had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

### Future Financings

We will continue to rely on equity sales of our preferred shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuance of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders.

There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our operations and other activities.

## Controls and procedures

As filed, 2,385 characters.

#### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15e under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 the “Exchange Act”), our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of the end of the three-month period ended September 30, 2019 covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, such disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the lack of segregation of duties and lack of a formal review process that includes multiple levels of review to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms because of the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures. The material weakness relates to the lack of segregation of duties in financial reporting, as our financial reporting and accounting functions were performed by an external consultant with no oversight by a professional with accounting expertise. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer did not possess accounting expertise and our company does not have an audit committee. This weakness was due to the Company’s lack of working capital to hire additional staff. Subsequently, with the completion of transition in the management and Board, the financial management will be led by a certified public accountant with extensive accounting experience who follows the standards of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and internal controls procedures to ensure the faithful representation of the financial statements, including the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of the reporting entity.

#### Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as noted above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our third quarter of 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
