“We are very happy with the continued progress we are having consolidating, simplifying and improving our industry and our business” said Steve Levely, CEO of Ackroo. “We started the year normalizing a US based acquisition in the loyalty marketing space while also divesting of a point-of-sale business that became a non-core asset. We used the proceeds from the divesture along with the earnings generated from the business over the first few quarters to pay off the balance owed for our Simpliconnect acquisition and to clear a debt settlement we had. We then used the remaining cash generated to do share buy backs as we believed this was the best use of capital based on the share price of Ackroo. We then finished the year using our Q4 generated cash to close our 13th acquisition to date in the gift card space once again in the US market. All of these actions led to another year of solid revenue growth while also improving our balance sheet in the process. We continued our focus on improving retention and expansion of our inorganically and organically acquired merchants while also better streamlining our operations to simplify processes and maximize cash generation for the business. We are very encouraged by the many decisions we made and the results we achieved in 2023 and are excited for what lies ahead in 2024.”

The Company cautions that figures for revenue have not been audited and are based upon calculations prepared by management. Actual results may differ from those reported in this release once these figures have been audited. The Company expects to complete its 2023 audit in April to confirm revenue figures, along with other financial results.

Ackroo has also granted incentive stock options to purchase 5,800,000 common shares to certain directors, officers and employees of the Company, exercisable at a price of $0.07, until January 26, 2027.
