- Reverse split undertaken with the intent to uplist to a national securities exchange
- New name better expresses Company’s heightened focus on enhancing leadership position as AI-Machine vision solutions provider
SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 18, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Quest Solution, Inc. (OTCQB: QUES) (“Quest” or “the Company”), announced that it has changed its corporate name to OMNIQ Corp. to better reflect its evolved business which now includes Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based computer vision solutions.
Shai Lustgarten, CEO, commented, “Following our recently announced record $45M in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and the successful integration of our state-of-the-art AI-machine vision capabilities acquired thirteen months ago, we believe it makes sense to rebrand at the corporate level under the name OMNIQ, which we believe better represents the all-encompassing nature of our products and solutions. At the operating level, our supply chain business will continue to be known as Quest Solution and our AI business will continue to operate under the HTS brand. With our enhanced AI capabilities, Quest has broadened its market penetration to include the high growth verticals of Public Safety, Safe City and Safe Campus/Schools; Homeland Security and Ticketless Parking. Moreover, our AI technology enables us to offer innovative unique solutions to our loyal Fortune 500 customers in the multi-billion dollar digital supply chain market.”
The Company will also execute a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of its common stock, effective on Wednesday, November 20, 2019. The Company has undertaken the reverse split with the intent of increasing the market price of the common stock to attract a broader range of investors as it moves forward with its strategy to uplist to a national securities exchange. Any fractional shares of common stock will be rounded up to the next full share. Following the reverse split, the Company will have approximately 4,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding. The reverse stock split was previously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders holding a majority of the Company’s voting power.
As a result of the reverse stock split, the Company will trade under the new symbol QUESD for 20 trading days beginning on November 20, 2019. The “D” will be removed after 20 trading days and the Company will be assigned a symbol reflecting its new name.
Mr. Lustgarten continued, “With our stronger market position, new high growth end markets and rebranded corporate entity, this reverse split is a natural next step to pursue a national exchange listing. This is an exciting time for our Company and we are looking forward to the next chapter in our progress. With our industry leading AI-machine vision capabilities, outstanding R&D team based in Israel, skilled and growing sales force and solid base of Fortune 500 customers, we look forward to driving future growth and enhanced shareholder value.”
Once the reverse stock split becomes effective, stockholders holding shares through a brokerage account will have their shares automatically adjusted to reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split. Stockholders should direct any questions concerning the reverse stock split to their broker or the Company’s transfer agent, Equity Stock Transfer, at https://equitystock.com/contact.
