Company Description
SportsQuest, Inc. (SPQS) is described in its public communications as a sports and entertainment hospitality company with activities in digital media, cinema operations, franchising technology, and electric mobility. The company’s stock trades on the OTC Pink market under the symbol SPQS. Over time, SportsQuest has outlined several business lines and merger or amalgamation plans that collectively position it in the broader information and entertainment sector.
In the United States, SportsQuest states that it developed and maintains a franchise portal for both front- and back-office end users, known in the industry as iefranchise.com. This portal is described as serving both B2B and B2C users, indicating a focus on supporting franchise-related operations and administration for multiple types of clients.
China-based AI cinema chain focus
More recent disclosures emphasize SportsQuest’s plan to amalgamate with a Mainland China-based theater (cinema) operator that runs a chain of corporately owned and franchised locations. The targeted business is Shenzhen Huayi Excellent Cinemas Co., Ltd. (Huayi), which is characterized as a cultural and high‑tech enterprise leading the operation of cinema chains in China.
According to company news, Huayi’s model centers on digital intelligent system technology and a self‑developed large‑scale model referred to as "Thousands of Cities, Ten Thousands of Cinemas". This system is described as managing chain cinema resources and data traffic to support efficient operations. The business plan excerpts cited by SportsQuest state that Huayi has acquired multiple movie theaters located in major cities in China and employs staff at both headquarters and theater locations. The plan also discusses an expansion strategy involving additional cinemas and franchised locations, with an emphasis on AI‑driven management of cinema data traffic and operations.
SportsQuest’s communications describe Huayi as integrating advanced AI technology and big data intelligence across the cinema value chain, from operating theaters to managing data traffic and supporting an AI‑enhanced cinema franchise model. These materials portray the targeted China cinema chain as aiming to build a distinctive cinema brand and to expand through both corporate ownership and franchising.
Offshore structure and merger framework
To support its China strategy, SportsQuest has reported the formation and use of special purpose vehicles (SPVs) and offshore entities. One announcement describes an offshore branch and SPV company, Huaying Online Film Co., Ltd., formed ahead of the China AI merger. This entity is presented as a subsidiary under the SportsQuest umbrella that will participate in the online film and digital entertainment space.
SportsQuest has also discussed the need for a Belize‑based SPV structure to comply with Mainland China foreign exchange and merger requirements, in connection with its targeted transaction with the AI cinema chain. Company updates emphasize that these structures are intended to support the amalgamation of the China‑based cinema business with SportsQuest as the parent company, subject to customary closing conditions and applicable regulations.
eBike expansion and blockchain initiatives
In addition to its cinema‑related plans, SportsQuest has announced a strategic expansion into the electric mobility sector. The company reports that it is in the process of a joint venture or amalgamation with a Canadian‑based e‑bike manufacturer, distributor, and franchisor with multiple active outlets. In some communications, SportsQuest notes an agreement in principle to acquire substantially all assets of an established e‑bike manufacturer and B2B franchisor, with assembly operations in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and fulfillment centers in Vancouver and Miami, Florida to serve North American markets.
As part of this electric mobility focus, SportsQuest has also discussed the development of a cryptocurrency or utility token backed by e‑bike assets. The company describes this as a blockchain‑related digital asset initiative that may be offered via an initial coin offering and linked to the e‑bike business ecosystem. Public statements indicate an intention to pursue this token as a utility or asset‑backed crypto instrument within the e‑bike franchise and mobility context, with an emphasis on regulatory compliance.
Franchise technology and hospitality positioning
Across multiple releases, SportsQuest refers to itself as a sports and entertainment hospitality company. Within this framework, the company highlights its U.S. franchise portal operations for front‑ and back‑office users, which are positioned as tools for franchise management and support. These activities, combined with the targeted cinema and e‑bike franchise businesses, suggest a focus on franchise‑driven models in entertainment and mobility.
SportsQuest’s communications also reference prior activities in smart wireless devices and building technologies, including the acquisition of Magnum Innovations and related smart building and energy‑related offerings. Those historical descriptions place SportsQuest at the intersection of connected and smart building technologies, with intelligent sensor systems and wireless expertise. More recent disclosures, however, concentrate on cinema, franchise portals, e‑bike expansion, and digital asset concepts.
Regulatory reporting and corporate status
SportsQuest has announced the filing of a Form 10 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, with the stated goal of becoming a fully reporting issuer. The company characterizes this step as part of a broader focus on transparency, regulatory compliance, and enhanced corporate governance. At the same time, SportsQuest notes that it is operating its current business model as a going concern while various merger and control‑block acquisition processes, including a potential acquisition by a Taiwanese software and cloud storage company, remain fluid.
Company communications explicitly state that management is responding to inquiries about these developments and that further updates will be provided as transactions progress or crystallize. SportsQuest also notes that some of its targeted transactions, such as the Taiwan software and cloud storage company control‑block acquisition, are based on prior OTC filings and remain subject to change.
Business model themes
Based solely on the company’s own descriptions, several recurring themes emerge:
- Entertainment and hospitality: Focus on cinema chains, online film operations, and sports and entertainment hospitality positioning.
- Franchise and platform orientation: Use of franchise portals, franchised cinemas, and e‑bike franchise networks as part of its growth plans.
- Technology and AI: Emphasis on AI‑enabled cinema operations, big data intelligence, and digital intelligent systems for theater management.
- Electric mobility and digital assets: Expansion into e‑bike manufacturing and franchising, along with exploration of an asset‑backed or utility crypto token tied to e‑bike assets.
All of these elements are presented by SportsQuest in its own news releases and disclosures as part of its evolving corporate strategy. Investors and observers reviewing SPQS should consider that many of the described transactions, mergers, and token projects are subject to completion, regulatory review, and other conditions, as indicated in the company’s public statements.
