The company has a "very robust" pipeline and strategy as it relates to its transformation efforts, the CEO said.
Web 3.0 represents a vision of the future internet in which everything operates on a decentralized basis. It creates opportunities for the PLBY Group to flourish without the censorship issues it has faced in the past.
"When you think about, you know, our friend Mark Zuckerberg deciding what is and what isn't appropriate, web 3.0 gives us a way around that," Kohn said.
The PLBY Group CEO told Benzinga the company plans to focus on membership revenue streams as it works on developing a Playboy mansion in the metaverse, which he described as "the 21st century version of the [Playboy] magazine."

He went on to talk about PLBY Group's relationships with its talent, potential Centerfold revenue sources, the Dream acquisition and more.
