--News Direct--

IotaComm, Inc. ("IotaComm" or the "Company"), a leading private wireless communications and Internet of Things (IoT) solution provider, announced today that it has successfully completed the acquisition of Iota Spectrum Partners, LP ("the Partnership"). As a result of the transaction, IotaComm now owns 100% of the outstanding partnership units and, accordingly, consolidates full ownership and control of its nationwide FCC-licensed 800 MHz spectrum portfolio.

The acquisition was completed through a structured Tender Offer to Exchange, whereby holders of the Partnership Units received shares of IotaComm Common Stock at an exchange ratio of 0.0125 shares for every 1 Partnership Unit. With the closing of the acquisition, former Partnership Unit holders collectively own more than 80% of IotaComm’s outstanding Common Stock. The consolidated ownership positions IotaComm to better execute its strategic vision of building the nation’s leading carrier-grade, low-power, wide-area network (LPWAN) dedicated to smart buildings, smart cities, and the future of data-driven infrastructure.

"This transaction marks a significant milestone in IotaComm’s evolution," said Terrence DeFranco, Chairman and CEO of IotaComm. "By unifying the ownership of our licensed spectrum assets under a single corporate structure, we have simplified our business model, strengthened our financial and operational foundation, and enhanced our ability to raise growth capital. This positions IotaComm to accelerate the deployment of our nationwide LPWAN network, expand our data services, and drive innovation at the intersection of connectivity, data analytics, and sustainability."

IotaComm’s network leverages LoRaWAN® technology — the globally recognized open standard for secure, low-power, wide-area IoT connectivity — and the Company is an active participant in the LoRa Alliance®. With full ownership of its FCC-licensed spectrum portfolio, IotaComm is uniquely positioned to deliver a premium, carrier-grade LoRaWAN® service offering that enables new possibilities for smart building, smart city, and industrial IoT applications across the United States.

The decision to pursue full consolidation was unanimously recommended by the Board of Directors of IotaComm and the General Partner of the Partnership after careful evaluation. The unified structure is expected to eliminate complexities that previously hindered valuation and financing opportunities and to improve the Company’s strategic flexibility. With this consolidation, IotaComm owns approximately 500 million MHz-pops of licensed spectrum, a critical strategic asset valued at approximately $84 million.

IotaComm remains focused on enabling a healthier, safer, and more sustainable society by providing ubiquitous IoT connectivity and valuable data-driven insights to customers across the commercial, municipal, and industrial sectors. The Company expects that the strengthened corporate structure will support its continued growth and leadership in the fast-expanding market for smart infrastructure solutions.
