Innuity Receives $7.0 Million For Sale of Jadeon POS Resale Division

Transaction to Significantly Improve Companys Balance Sheet and Gross Margin

REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Innuity, Inc. (OTC BB: INNU, http://www.innuity.com), a Software as a Service (SaaS) company that designs, acquires, and integrates affordable solutions for small businesses, announced that it has completed the sale of its assets used in the Jadeon POS resale business to Radiant Systems, Inc. for $7.0 million. Jadeon has been operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary and part of Innuitys commerce division.

The benefits Innuity expects to achieve as a result of this transaction:

  • Imperiums secured debt paid off in full
  • Positive working capital
  • Positive shareholder equity
  • Significant improvement in gross margins

This transaction will complete Innuitys transition to a pure SaaS provider to the small business market. Innuitys remaining business lines are the core of its offerings and have traditionally provided substantially higher gross margins than the POS resale business. Innuity expects to return to positive adjusted EBITDA during the second half of this year.

The sale of our Jadeon business line marks the end of our balance sheet restructuring with the retirement of the remaining Imperium secured debt and achieving positive working capital and shareholder equity. I know investors have been concerned about our negative working capital and the secured debt. I believe it will now be much more straightforward for investors to determine the fair market value of our company. With this restructuring and business transition behind us Im optimistic about the prospects for our Promotional and Commerce products. We will now move our focus and attention to growing these exciting business lines.
