Carmanah Technologies Corp: Acquisition of Spot Devices closed
Die untenstehende Meldung ist eine Original-Meldung des Unternehmens. Sie ist nicht von der ECOreporter.de-Redaktion bearbeitet. Die presserechtliche Verantwortlichkeit liegt bei dem meldenden Unternehmen.
Victoria, British Columbia, Canada - Carmanah announces today that it has completed the previously announced (November 15, 2012) transaction to acquire the assets of Spot Devices, Inc., (“Spot Devices”). Spot Devices is a market leader in the traffic signaling industry and, together with Cirrus Systems, LLC, (“Cirrus”) a related company, an innovator of System Infrastructure Management Application ("SIMA") technology. Included in the transaction is a license agreement for the exclusive use of SIMA for public roadway applications.
The acquisition of Spot Devices business complements and expands Carmanah’ s portfolio of traffic signaling products with a full range of Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (“RRFBs”) and school zone systems. Features of the expanded portfolio include audible push buttons, passive detection, and a selection of products available in both AC- and solar-powered models.
The Cirrus SIMA technology will expand Carmanah’s offerings by providing remote cloud based network management capability which enables customers to monitor and control traffic systems from a central location. The Spot acquisition will also grow Carmanah’ s pipeline for AC and solar-powered products and position Carmanah as the market share leader in the crosswalk and school zone traffic signaling space. The acquisition allows Carmanah to consolidate top features and technologies of both portfolios while reducing operational costs and simplifying solutions for the customer.
According to Bruce Cousins, Carmanah CEO, the acquisition is well-timed and relevant to the industry, “We believe that this transaction and access to remote-management technology will become a meaningful source of growth for our business in the future. The combined product portfolio and remote-monitoring platform address a market need that we can now answer and positions Carmanah as a market leader in this category.”
For Spot Devices customers , Spot products will be continued as “Carmanah” branded products, available on www.carmanah.com/traffic. Effective immediately, all inquiries directed to Spot Devices should be forwarded to [email protected].

Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of the words “believes,” “may,” “plans,” “will,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “budgets,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “projects” and similar expressions, and the negative of such expressions. Forward-looking statements in this news release include statements about the definitive agreement to acquire assets of Spot Devices, including a license agreement for the exclusive use of SIMA for all Pedestrian Traffic Applications; the traffic signaling market position of Carmanah upon completion of the acquisition; the scope and potential pipeline of AC and solar-powered signaling products; the value of remote management; the SIMA platform providing future growth of Carmanah’ s business; Carmanah’ s strategy, future operations, prospects and the plans of management; extending existing product lines through internal development efforts, strategic business relationships as well as focused acquisitions.
With respect to the forward-looking statements contained in this news release, Carmanah has made numerous assumptions regarding, among other things, that Carmanah will be able to close on the asset acquisition and licensing terms contemplated in the definitive agreement with Spot Devices; and Carmanah’s market position and future prospects following completion of the transactions contemplated in the definitive agreement with Spot Devices. While Carmanah considers these assumptions to be reasonable, these assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, market and social uncertainties and contingencies.
