Tribe WOD Founders Sue Factory 14 and Razor Group, Alleging Fraud and Breach of Contract

Tribe WOD

The founders of Tribe WOD, a prominent cross-training and fitness equipment manufacturer, have filed a lawsuit against brand aggregators Factory 14 and Razor Group, citing deceit, fraud, breach of contract, unfair and deceptive trade practices, and unjust enrichment, among other offenses. The lawsuit, filed in Massachusetts Superior Court, alleges that the defendants, Factory 14 and Razor Group, failed to fulfill promises made during the acquisition of Tribe WOD. Alleged breaches of the agreement include failure to make earn-out payments as well as failing to provide access to business records – all outlined in the acquisition contract. Originating from a humble Massachusetts garage, Tribe WOD founders Alexandre Vitet and Jared Bane built their company into a $2.5 million enterprise before selling it to Factory 14, which later resold it to Razor Group. Despite promises of global expansion, enhanced marketing, access to industry experts, and potential earn-out payments, the plaintiffs argue that the defendants neglected their commitments, substantially harming the company and disregarding U.S. laws and business practices. Tribe WOD, which launched in 2019, swiftly grew to over $2.5 million in sales in just a few months, establishing strong sales channels via Amazon, Shopify, and various online platforms. This success attracted several potential buyers, with Factory 14 standing out due to its promise of multiple payments tied to Tribe WOD's annual earnings through earn-outs. The lawsuit contends that shortly after the acquisition, Factory 14 sold the assets of Tribe WOD to Razor Group, bypassing an anti-assignment provision in the original agreement. It is alleged that Factory 14 knowingly withheld information regarding this potential transaction from the plaintiffs. According to the lawsuit, Vitet and Bane had doubled revenue year-over-year and had expected to, at a minimum, match that. The lawsuit states that based on the promises made during the courtship and due diligence phase, there were immediate red flags after signing the acquisition agreement, and the situation quickly spiraled downward. Moreover, the complaint asserts that both Factory 14 and Razor Group systematically dismantled Tribe WOD, dismissing in-house creative content specialists and neglecting basic operational necessities. According to the lawsuit, Factory 14 and Razor Group failed to comply with federal and state tax, wage, and import laws and otherwise mismanaged the business financially. The lawsuit also states that the defendants had no U.S. bank account or credit card and were unable to obtain either and thus were unable to pay any of the company’s bills. The lawsuit alleges that the failure to pay basic bills led to lost revenue and the ability to serve existing customers or expand to new markets. The plaintiffs claim that their consulting agreements were prematurely terminated and allege that income from Tribe WOD was siphoned off to other businesses. The lawsuit alleges that Factory 14 and Razor Group essentially turned a thriving brand built by the founders with a rabid customer following into an Amazon seller with no identity, and loaded with unnecessary fees. The lawsuit seeks compensatory and multiple damages and injunctive relief, compelling the defendants to provide accurate and complete financial data. Interestingly, Razor Group faces a similar lawsuit in Texas, as it is being sued by the founders of Kettlebell Kings in a case with similar allegations. On its website, Razor Group states that it is trusted by leading investors Blackrock, Victory Park Capital, and Fortress among others. The Tribe WOD lawsuit was filed in Massachusetts Superior Court by Garage Sweat, LLC f/k/a Tribe Wod, LLC, Jared Bane, and Alexandre Vitet against Factory 14 UK Acquisition IV, Ltd., Razor Group GMBH, and Razor Group USA, LLC. This case has been accepted into and will be litigated in the Business Litigation Session, a business-focused sub-department of the Massachusetts Superior Court sited in Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts.

First Year of Legal Sports Betting in Ontario Generates Over $1.48 Billion

MarketJar

The first year of legal single-game sports betting in Ontario was quite a profitable one. According to a report released on Wednesday by IGaming Ontario, overall gaming revenue in the province's regulated sector was little over $1.48 billion. The first year of Ontario's regulated industry, which opened on April 4, 2022, quickly grew to include more than 1.6 million active players, 45 gaming operators and 76 facilities, with additional sites expected to launch. Add to that over $35.6 billion in total wagers and it’s clear why Ontario now ranks among the top five iGaming jurisdictions in North America after New York, New Jersey, Michigan and Pennsylvania. The report estimated that the legal sports betting market contributed $1.56 billion to the province's GDP, $906 million of which went toward labor income. The regulated Ontario market produced $238 million in federal government revenue, $469 million in provincial revenue, and $54 million in municipal government revenue. In 2024, the industry’s contribution to Ontario's GDP is projected to reach $2.9 billion Ontario remains the only Canadian province with a legal sports betting and online casino gambling market, however a group of sportsbook operators are urging Quebec regulators to become Canada’s next open sports betting jurisdiction. Made-in-Ontario casino and sportsbook provider NorthStar Gaming Holdings Inc. ( TSXV:BET ) is among the companies experiencing record wagers within the Ontario market. A Casino and Sportsbook Gaming Platform Made in Ontario NorthStar Gaming launched its casino and sportsbook gambling platform Northstar Bets in May 2022 and has continued to grow its userbase and revenue. Along with the most popular online casino games, the NorthStar Bets sportsbook gives real-time news, data, analysis, and scores directly in the betting environment. In the first quarter of 2023, NorthStar Gaming reported total wagers of $139.5 million, marking a 24% increase from the previous quarter. Gross gaming revenue was $4.4 million, up 8% from the previous quarter, with a gross margin of $1.2 million, up 20% from Q4 2022. NorthStar Bets was developed in partnership with Playtech (LSE:PTECH) (OTC:PYTCY), a major provider of B2C gambling technology. Playtech became NorthStar's strategic software and services partner as part of the agreement, supplying its IMS platform and casino services to Ontario's gambling sector. In addition, Playtech made a C$12.25 million strategic investment in Northstar Gaming to help the Canadian gaming industry grow and thrive. The investment completed Northstar’s reverse takeover (RTO) funding, which brought in total gross proceeds of C$22.33 million. NorthStar has found a lot of success in Ontario with its service that blends high-quality sports journalism with betting/casino games since its market debut in March 2023. Following the acquisition of Slapshot Media Inc., an iGaming marketing and managed services company, this company is poised to provide its unique slice of the industry to the rest of Canada. Along with live, on-call agents, exclusive sports news, and an unmatched casino and sportsbook experience, NorthStar Gaming also offers these services. The company benefits from its local presence by leveraging its strong Ontario roots, which enables it to keep in tune with and adapt to the preferences of the province. Because of collaborations and agreements with significant media firms, including an omnichannel advertising and marketing services agreement with Torstar Corporation, the originator of the Toronto Star, NorthStar is well-positioned to become a leader in the convergence of sports media and sports wagering.

Regulatory Policies Like The Green Industrial Policy And The IRA Make ESG Compliance More Crucial Than Ever – Stay Ahead With FiscalNote’s (NYSE: NOTE) Equilibrium

Benzinga

By Jad Malaeb, Benzinga Industrial growth is acknowledged globally to be necessary for human progress, but the recent rise in greenhouse gas emissions, pollution and resource depletion has forced leaders to think deeply about the reward-risk trade-off. Products of this line of thinking include the Green Industrial Policy, which refers to a set of policies and strategies set by the United Nations Environment Programme that promotes sustainable and environmentally-friendly industrial development. It focuses on integrating environmental considerations into industrial activities, fostering the transition to a low-carbon economy and encouraging the adoption of clean and resource-efficient technologies. World leaders have adopted the Green Industrial Policy’s vision into region-specific protocols. The EU Green Deal, for example, is a comprehensive set of policies and initiatives proposed by the European Commission aimed at transforming Europe into the world’s first climate-neutral continent by 2050. Likewise, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), an American policy that was passed into law in 2022, grants investment and production tax credits for businesses and eligible persons who invest in renewable energy systems. The U.S. government has labeled the IRA the “most significant climate legislation in U.S. history.” Aware of the rising importance for businesses to adhere to the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) framework, FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE) recently hosted a webinar discussing ESG global trends, the impact of the IRA and EU Green Deals on businesses and how these changes may affect specific industries and organizations. “I think an important, maybe, role that the industry needs to play more and more is explaining exactly a lot of the business models. I think in this conversation we’re mixing a lot of issues, and so for trying to explain how we’re going to get to clean technology, I think … we need to explain the intricacies,” said Thibaut L’Oryte, the Director of Public Affairs at AmCham EU. Since its acquisition of the SaaS product Equilibrium, FiscalNote has taken its ESG compliance services to unprecedented levels, helping businesses easily manage their ESG goals and activities. Winner of the Best SaaS Product for CSR or Sustainability award at the 2022 SaaS awards, Equilibrium is an artificial intelligence platform that helps organizations unify, manage and benchmark carbon, climate and ESG data management across their operations. Equilibrium is now part of a collection of ESG Solutions that FiscalNote offers customers. With Oxford Analytica, the FiscalNote Core Platform and the ESG & CSR Board, FiscalNote’s ESG compliance portfolio has any potential ESG solution a company could be looking for. Their portfolio covers global ESG research and analysis, ESG policy monitoring, a confidential vendor-free peer organization and Equilibrium’s unique ESG AI solution. Click here for more.

Spiceology, the fast-growing spice company known for its innovative signature blends, has once again teamed up with over-the-fire-cooking expert and social media phenomenon, Derek Wolf ( @overthefirecooking ), to create new beer-infused barbeque blends. Packaged in the fan-favorite resealable beer cans, the Spiceology x Derek Wolf Beer-Infused Rub Collection now includes a total of ten flavor-packed rubs, all infused with perfectly paired beers. Now available for purchase, this new four-pack takes consumers on a road trip around the United States to celebrate some of Wolf’s favorite styles of barbeque, including odes to Memphis, East Carolina and West Texas. “Since first launching the beer-infused six-pack with Spiceology back in 2020, we both knew we wanted to expand the beer can line,” said Derek Wolf, Over The Fire Cooking. “Beer and barbeque have always gone together, and these blends offer new ways to experiment with those flavors. For these new blends, we specifically formulated each one with a protein in mind.” These beer-infused blends can be purchased as a four-pack or as individual cans, with plastic lids included: Sticky Bourbon Brown Ale ($14.95): Memphis-style with burnt sugar sweetness, bourbon notes, and a tiny amount of heat for balance. The blend is designed for pork but is also ideal for baked beans, sauces, grilled veggies, and compound butter. Sweet Carolina Blonde ($14.95): Inspired by eastern Carolina’s Mop Sauce, this beer-infused blend packs tang, sweet and heat all in one. Designed for pork and poultry, this blend also works for chicken, seafood, pasta, rice, and marinades. Smoked Garlic Jalapeño Lager ($14.95): Inspired by West Texas’ love of chile-based heat. This beer-infused flavor twist on a classic salt and pepper blend is made for beef, but works perfectly with pasta salad, dressings, marinades, roasted veggies, and more. Big Bad BBQ Ale ($14.95): An all-purpose BBQ blend with all of Derek’s favorite flavor profiles. This blend is made for anything and everything, especially smash burgers, beef, chicken, pork, vegetables, and seafood. “The original six-pack of beer-infused blends we formulated with Derek quickly became one of our most popular products and gift sets,” said Chef Tony Reed, Executive Director of Culinary. “For this round, Derek wanted classic BBQ rubs with his personal twist, and the addition of ingredients like cinnamon, cocoa, and of course, beer, brought these classic-style blends to the next level.” The blends can be found on Spiceology.com and are available in individual beer cans or as a set of all four.
