Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company”) (CSE:N)(OTC PINK:NXTTF)(FRANKFURT:M5BQ) reports that it has completed the acquisition of VaporSeller, an e-commerce portal for the sale of vaporizers and accessories that generated an unaudited revenue base of US$3.4 million in 2015. The Company has commenced integration activities to ensure an effective transition into the operations of Namaste. This includes software integration, inventory storage and controls, and the transition of customer service and support functions. The following sets forth the highlights of the acquisition:

  • Expands customer list by over 150,000 names;
  • Adds new manufacturer relationships and products that will be sold though VaporSeller as well as Namaste’s retail and wholesale division; and
  • Provides strategic entrance into the US market.

Further to the Company’s press release dated June 7, 2016 that outlines the definitive terms for the acquisition of VaporSeller, the Company has acquired all VaporSeller related website domains, a customer list of over 150,000 names, and related intellectual property, goodwill, and support services, in exchange for US$500,000 in cash, 5.0 million shares of Namaste over time and an earn-out of US$1.5 million, subject to revenue and margin controls.

In addition to closing the acquisition of VaporSeller, the Company has also closed on the minimum subscription requirement of its non-brokered private placement by issuing approximately 8.0 million units (“Units) of the Company for gross proceeds of approximately $960,000. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one common share purchase warrant at an exercise price of $0.18 for a period of 2-years.

AGORACOM is very proud to announce that we are once again sponsoring a Cambridge Conference. This time, we are sponsoring the 2009 World Resource Investment Conference on at the Vancouver Convention Centre in Vancouver, BC on June 7th and 8th.

The 2009 event promises to be an incredible conference for both investors and public companies as it features an world class line-up of speakers, covering all types of direct investments in resource public companies, speculative investing, resource exploration, oil & gas, world outlook, investment strategies and more.

AGORACOM is ideally situated in the middle of all the action at booth #131 so if you plan to attend please stop by.

SPEAKER WORKSHOP

In addition, I will also be conducting a Speaker Workshop on Sunday, June 7th at 12:30 PST called, “Learn To Use Blogs, Twitter and RSS Feeds To Make You A Power Investor”. For years, CEOs and IROs have ignored them as irrelevant and having quirky names, but with tens of millions of investors using them, public companies incorporating them and even the SEC green lighting them for investor relations, you now need to understand how social media tools can supercharge your market knowledge.
This workshop will teach you how to use social media to cut through clutter, get the information you need directly to you and connect with the smartest people on the planet.

Hosted by: George Tsiolis, Founder of AGORACOM.com

Panelist: Peter Grandich, Chief Commentator of AGORACOM.com

See you in Vancouver!

Regards,
George
