VERB Technology Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: VERB) (“VERB”), a leader in business-focused interactive video, and the pioneer of Augmented Sales Intelligence software, announces that it has completed its previously announced acquisition of Sound Concepts (the “Closing”), the leading provider of sales and marketing tools and digital technology solutions in the direct sales and affiliate marketing sector. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at Closing (the “Effective Time”), each share of Sound Concepts’ capital stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Sound Concepts Capital Stock”) was cancelled and converted into the right to receive a proportionate share of $25,000,000 of value payable to the Sound Concepts Shareholders through the combination of a cash payment and the issuance of VERB stock.
The cash payment consisted of an aggregate of $15,000,000 (the “Acquisition Cash Payment”), which was paid using a portion of the net proceeds VERB received as a result of its recent public offering (the “Public Offering”) of units that closed on April 9, 2019, which closing was announced on April 12, 2019. $4,000,000 of the Acquisition Cash Payment was immediately utilized by the Sound Concepts Shareholders to purchase an aggregate of $4,000,000 of units in the VERB Public Offering at the same price, and upon the same terms and conditions as all other investors who purchased units in the VERB Public Offering. As a result, VERB’s net cash outlay in connection with the Sound Concepts acquisition was approximately $11,000,000. In addition, the Sound Concepts Shareholders were issued an aggregate of 3,194,888 restricted shares of VERB Common Stock, with a fair market value of $10,000,000.
Following the closing, and continuing beyond the integration into VERB, the Sound Concepts leadership team will remain in their respective current positions under long-term employment agreements and retain their offices and existing team of approximately 90 people in American Fork, Utah. The combined VERB and Sound Concepts dev teams have already completed the integration of the VERB technology into Sound Concepts’ Brightools platform, the combined marketing teams have publicly launched the new platform, and the combined sales teams have already signed, and are continuing to sign new enterprise users of the newly combined platform.
“The VERB technology and the combined experience of the VERB executive team and board members, coupled with VERB’s successful public offering and listing on NASDAQ, adds enormous resources that will translate into immediate and long-term value for our current and prospective customers,” stated McKinley Oswald, Sound Concepts President. “From an operations standpoint, the VERB team is already having a positive impact on our business, helping us better serve our clients,” stated Colby Allen, Sound Concepts SVP of Operations.
“The combination of our application and the VERB interactive tagg video technology has resulted in a unique and effective product that is unmatched in the industry,” stated Brycen Rhinehart, Sound Concepts SVP of Digital.
“I believe any successful growth strategy must include growth by acquisition, as well as growth organically,” stated Rory J. Cutaia, CEO. “With Sound Concepts, not only did we acquire a growing, profitable business, highly accretive and complementary to our own, but we acquired an extremely talented leadership team whom I’m proud to call my partners, and together with their dedicated staff, we will create long-term, sustainable value for our stockholders.”
