MONTREAL, Sept. 03, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MOBI724 Global Solutions Inc. (“Mobi724” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: MOS), a fintech company, announces that on August 30th, 2019, it entered into an agreement according to which it sells all of the shares it holds in the capital stock of Mobi724 Asia Inc. (“MobiAsia”), its partially held subsidiary operating in the Philippines, representing 70% of all of the issued and outstanding shares of MobiAsia (the “Shares”), to QualityPay Solutions Inc. (“QualityPay”), an arm’s length party (the “Transaction”).   

Prior to entering into the Transaction, QualityPay held 30% of all of the issued and outstanding shares of MobiAsia. Pursuant to the Transaction, QualityPay is acquiring the Shares for a total consideration of $340,000 payable in three instalments, the final instalment being due on October 31, 2019. Under the terms of the Transaction, all communications issued by QualityPay, or MobiAsia, shall immediately indicate that “Mobi724 Asia Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of QualityPay Solutions Inc.” MobiAsia will be entitled to operate under the same name for a period of up to 24 months, after which, Mobi724 Asia Inc. shall adopt a new name that will not include, or make any reference to, the terms “Mobi” or “724”.

“The sale of the Company’s stake in MobiAsia, coupled with the divesting of our loyalty related accounts to Ackroo Inc. on July 2, 2019, completes the initiative embarked on in January 2019 to optimize our operations and focus our resources and efforts on the most scalable and value creating segment; namely, providing payment card issuers with AI enhanced card-linked offers & rewards capabilities. These are the segments where the Company holds a substantial competitive advantage,” stated Marcel Vienneau, CEO of Mobi724.

The Transaction is being carried out at arm’s length and qualifies as an “exempt transaction” in accordance with the provisions of section 3.1 of Policy 5.3 of the TSX-Venture Exchange.
