DigitalTown Growing Rapidly

The company is growing organically and through smart acquisitions. The company acquired and successfully integrated half a dozen companies and looking to acquire more as it continues to grow at a rapid pace.  

Cloud.Market:  Acquired for 750,000 shares and $7,500 cash.  This acquisition gave DigitalTown a platform on both web and mobile.  Chris  Maxwell, the Founder who was ex-Amazon has led the development of this platform that allowed any city to be its own Amazon. The acquisition gave DigitalTown both a working platform and a talented engineering team. Although integration began in January, 2016, the DigitalTown Board formally approved the acquisition at the March 4, 2016 Board meeting in Mesa, AZ.

Software Masters:Acquired for 150,000 common shares, this acquisition gave DigitalTown a solution for powering the back office of local government.  Software Masters’ product, GovSuite, powers the 90,000-person Madison County, Kentucky.  This technology has been in commercial use for 6 years and was in the process of being commercialized into a product that could be sold on a multi-tenant basis as Software as a Service (Saas). Through the deal, DigitalTown also secured an excellent portfolio of .CITY domains.

Rezserve:Acquired for 3 million shares and a $400,000 convertible note, with a 1 year term, interest-free.  The convertible note is secured only by the equity of Rezserve with no contingency on any other DigitalTown assets. This acquisition gave DigitalTown a fully commercialized solution for powering online travel booking. The technology has been in development since 2003. Rezserve processes in excess of $25 million in annual travel bookings using the Rezserve platform in Whistler, Canada alone. 

Appointment.com:Acquired for 1.625 million shares, the acquisition gave DigitalTown a robust and commercialized solution for online appointment booking.  The platform powered nearly 1 million calendar bookings per year with nearly 1000 paying customers. The main opportunity from this acquisition is the ability to support any type of service-oriented business with a cloud-based booking solution, i.e. the “Open Table for Everything”, covering a broad range of service provider categories.

Integration of each acquisition has gone very well. There has been no loss of personnel, or impairment of assets.  Of the 4 companies, Rezserve and Appointment.com continue to operate as independent brands and have the ability to grow substantial revenues on a stand-alone basis through dramatically accelerated marketing of this mature solution by leveraging DigitalTown’s .CITY website network as a hub for online bookings for lodging and activities. Cloud.Market and Software Masters were technology, intellectual property, and personnel acquisitions.
