About Grom Social Enterprises, Inc.
Grom Social Enterprises (OTCQB: GRMM), developer of Grom Social, the leading social media platform for kids and original children’s entertainment content provider, is introducing the GROM app, a fully COPPA-compliant social networking app that lets kids ages 5-16 safely create, share, engage and have fun with friends.
GROM combines the most popular features of some of today’s leading social networks, Facebook, YouTube and Snapchat, in one rich and vibrant kid-friendly destination with the industry’s most powerful safety measures. With the GROM app, kids can create their own customized “Gromatar” profiles and interact with others through direct messaging that includes liking/commenting, drawing, photo sharing, and more. GROM is the only COPPA-certified app that gives children the ability to create and record original videos using a range of face filters and effects as well as access to over 1,000 hours of exclusive videos on demand.
What Grom Social Enterprises Does
Grom Social Enterprises is a media, technology, and entertainment company. The company’s core focus is the delivery of quality kid-safe content to children ages 5 to 16. Moreover, the delivery of this content is done in a safe and secure environment that is easy for parents to monitor.
The GRMM platform is second to none when it comes to entertainment and security for children in an online world. Available through both its website and mobile application, the platform provides children with several benefits, including:
- Engaging Children’s Videos – Grom produces 5 new shows weekly of original content not found anywhere else. It’s wholly owned subsidiary Top Draw Animation (TDA), , a world class animation studio that provides high quality, child-focused video content to some of the largest media companies in the world.
- Social Capabilities – Grom Social is the branded social platform at GRMM. This platform allows children to safely interact with other children of their ages without the fear of predators targeting children via networks geared toward audiences of all ages.

GRMM Revenue
In the past 12 months, Grom Social generated revenue of approximately $8.6 million. The majority of this revenue ($7.8 million) was the result of the company’s Top Draw Animation arm. The company also generated $800,000 through its educational offering.
This is significant considering that the company is trading with a market cap of just around $34 million. Considering a market cap that is only about four multiples of revenue, it’s easy to make the argument that this stock is highly undervalued compared to its peers in the sector.
Final Thoughts
Grom Social is a stock that’s well worth looking into. As children’s video content consumption habits become more fragmented, parents are finding it harder and harder to keep track of what their children are watching online. Moreover, the world’s active interest in social media leaves many children susceptible to unthinkable dangers.
GRMM is creating solutions to these problems, giving parents the peace of mind that they need while offering children a compelling online experience. With the company already generating annual revenue that adds up to nearly a quarter of its market cap, this highly valued stock represents an opportunity that’s hard to ignore.
