MOS Mobi724 Global Solutions Inc

MOBI724 Global Solutions Inc. (“MOBI724” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:MOS) (OTCQB:MOBIF), a global Fintech company offering a fully integrated suite of multiple Card-Linked Offers and Rewards (“CLO&R”), Digital Marketing and Business Intelligence (“DMBI”) and Payment Solutions (“Payment”) announces that its wholly owned subsidiary, I.Q. 7/24 Inc. (“iQ724”), has entered into a definitive agreement (a “Transaction”) to sell certain assets associated with iQ724’s loyalty programs in the retail, hospitality and automotive sectors in both Canada and the USA (the “Targeted Accounts”) to Ackroo Inc. (“Ackroo”) (TSX-V:AKR), an arm’s length party.

Under the terms of the Transaction, iQ724 will continue to service certain globally strategic accounts and Ackroo will acquire the Targeted Accounts for an amount of $2,800,000. A non-refundable deposit of $100,000 was paid by Ackroo, in trust, at the signing of the definitive agreement and the balance of $2,700,000 will be paid in full at the closing of the Transaction. The parties have agreed to transition the Targeted Accounts from iQ724’s loyalty platform to Ackroo’s loyalty platform over the course of a 24-month period (the “Transition Period”). Under the terms of the agreement, iQ724 will retain all intellectual property rights pertaining to its loyalty platform, however, to ensure that the quality of the service to the Targeted Accounts remains unaffected by the Transaction, the parties have entered into various support agreements that run up to a term of 24-months in order to provide product support services pursuant to which iQ724 will transition the Targeted Accounts to Ackroo’s loyalty platform. In light of the various service agreements entered into with Ackroo and based on the average historical billings of the Targeted Accounts, management expects that the Transaction will result in an immediate decrease of approximately $90K per month in top line revenue. Management is fully confident, that the positive impact from focusing the Company’s resources on the scalable Fintech business, rather than on individual small and medium accounts, will generate more value for the shareholders in the medium and long term.

“When MOBI724 acquired iQ7/24, our main goal was the integration of iQ7/24’s sophisticated business intelligence and loyalty solutions platform with MOBI724’s all-in-one ecosystem” said Marcel Vienneau, CEO of MOBI724. “Having completed the integration and all its enhancements, MOBI724 can now offer its clients – payment cards issuers, and major accounts - a truly unique and comprehensive platform. The expansion of our operations in Latin America is experiencing very strong momentum. To ensure that our highly scalable Fintech business is provided with all of the Company's resources we must remain laser focused. The future of MOBI724 is providing Fintech and data intelligence and analytics solutions primarily to banks and payment processing networks, therefore this Transaction allows greater alignment of the Company’s activities with its strategic approach and business plan. MOBI724 and Ackroo are committed to working closely to ensure a seamless transition for the relevant iQ7/24 clients. The management and the Board of Directors of MOBI724 are confident, that the Transaction bodes well for our shareholders.”

“The acquisition of various iQ7/24 assets from MOBI724 is a great win for both organizations” said Steve Levely, Chief Executive Officer at Ackroo. “We are very focused on consolidating the fragmented gift card, loyalty and marketing services industry and so the addition of iQ724’s business only adds to our strategy for growth.  For MOBI724 the divesture of the various iQ7/24 assets will allow them to better focus on their core business of card-linked offers and rewards. The acquisition truly is a win for both company’s customers, employees and shareholders.”

Completion of the Transaction remains subject to a number of conditions, including receipt of any required regulatory and shareholder approvals if required by the Exchange Policy, and such other closing conditions as are customary in transactions of this nature.  While the parties expect the Transaction to close in Q2-2019, there can be no assurance that all of the closing conditions will be satisfied and that the Transaction will be completed as disclosed. The Transaction is carried out at arm’s length.
