NEW YORK, NY and LOS ANGELES, CA and LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM - via eTeligis ( Feb 21, 2014) - Digital Brand Media & Marketing Group, Inc (OTCQB: DBMM ) is very encouraged by the Merger & Acquisition activity taking place in the digital technology and marketing sector in 2014.Reggie James, Co-Chief Operating Officer and Senior Vice-President Marketing & Communications has commented:
"As DBMM continues to implement its Business Plan and build our strategic alliances with partners BRANDmini and VMSPlay , the positive aspects of those partnerships are serving us well as we began fiscal year 2014 and have had discussions with new clients in the US and in Europe. The offering to clients now includes added dimensions which can provide a competitive advantage as we had hoped when the relationships were initially established. In addition, we are excited by recent activity in the market that continues to confirm the Company's position as a business attractive to institutional investors and to a target acquisition."
"Recent activity relating to the meteoric growth in both Short Messaging Services (SMS) as well as premium services such as Video Messaging Services (VMS) shows no sign of slowdown, quite the opposite, and our offering via partners has been both timely and will prove to be well-advised over time. The recent acquisition by Facebook of the SMS provider WhatsApp ( http://on.wsj.com/1e8rEi2 ) elevates the nature of our tied alliances," said Mr. James.
Going forward, there are many opportunities but they will take time and additional headcount, as stated in our recent 10-K and 10-Q. While we are quite bullish on DBMM's potential, we highlight that it takes time and people to execute against opportunities. However, the Company remains significantly undervalued, albeit a Company with consistent revenues. Therefore, in order to provide for the reserve equity generally required for any financing arrangement and an equity portion which must be reserved for an acquisition, the Authorized Shares have been increased to 2,000,000,000 common shares as prudent contingency planning.
