VANCOUVER, BCÂ and ERIE Pa., June 30, 2020Â -Â Imagine AR Inc. (IP:CSE) (IPNFF:OTCQB) (“ImagineAR” or “Company”) an Augmented Reality Company that enables businesses, sports teams and organizations to create their own AR campaigns, would like to take this opportunity to provide investors with a mid-year corporate update during this holiday shortened week in which both the Canadian and American stock markets will be closed for their respective independence day holidays.
Though the Company fully expects to resume the release of further news related to significant business development after this week, investors will be happy to hear about new developments in this update.
AN INCREDIBLE BUT NOT SURPRISING 2020 SO FAR FOR IMAGINEAR
Alen Paul Silverrstieen, CEO of ImagineAR, stated “This was the year that, by all expert accounts, was the year that Augmented Reality would begin to make its first commercialization push and it did not disappoint. Despite dramatic geo-political, economic and societal volatility from the start of 2020 resulting in delays to some of our negotiations, we were still able to close a significant financing, announce significant national and global partnerships, and add top notch people to our board and team. It is safe to say that we anticipate significant results to stem from this positioning in the second half of the year and, quite frankly, for the foreseeable future”.
MARKET CAPITALIZATION APPRECIATION IN 2020
The Company’s great progress in 2020, as well as, positioning for growth can best be observed through our market capitalization growth in 2020. At the outset of the year, ImagineAR had a market capitalization of less than $5,000,000. Today, that figure sits at approximately $25,000,000.
Furthermore, liquidity and dollar volume trading in the first quarter was encouraging and showed us signs of promise, which came to fruition at the end of the second quarter with daily dollar volume trading regularly exceeding $500,000 and even surpassing $3,000,000 recently.
Silverrstieen added “With a market cap of approximately $25 million dollars, ImagineAR continues to provide investors with a great opportunity to participate in the anticipated growth of Augmented Reality, which promises to be a disruptive over the next 3 years and then well beyond into the rest of the decade”.
