WPCS Closes
on Sale of Seattle Operations
Sale
provides nearly $1.5 million in working capital
SUISUN,
CA - (Marketwired - October 3
,
2014)
- WPCS International Incorporated (NASDAQ: WPCS), which specializes
in contracting services for communications infrastructure and the development of a digital currency trading platform, today announced
that on September 30, 2014, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of WPCS International - Seattle,
Inc. (the "Seattle Operations"), to EC Company ("EC"), an Oregon-based electrical contracting company.
Sebastian Giordano,
Interim CEO of WPCS, commented, "After having successfully disposed of our two unprofitable operations in Australia and
Trenton, the sale of our Seattle Operations provides vital cash for the Company as we continue our restructuring efforts".
The
Company sold substantially all of the assets of the Seattle Operations to EC for an all-cash purchase price of approximately $2,120,000.
The final purchase price is subject to adjustment based on the net tangible asset value ("NTAV") of the Seattle Operations
as of September 30, 2014. Prior to closing, the parties agreed that the closing NTAV of the Seattle Operations was approximately
$1,870,000. The Company received approximately $1,460,000 in cash, while approximately $410,000 was held in escrow for the payment
of certain payroll liabilities. In addition, 90 days from the closing date, the Company could receive the remaining $250,000,
which is also currently being held in escrow, dependent upon the final NATV calculation.
Mr. Giordano
continued, "Transactionally, we are now focused on selling our China joint venture interest, which would bring additional
working capital into the Company, as we continue to manage our profitable Suisun operations, develop our digital currency business
and work towards successfully completing our restructuring".
