PRESS RELEASE
Exhibit 99.1
Excel
Corporation Acquires U.S. Operations of Calpian, Inc.
IRVING, Texas, Dec. 01, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Excel Corporation
(OTCQB:EXCC), a leading provider of integrated financial and transaction processing services to merchants throughout the United
States, today announced that it has acquired substantially all of the U.S. assets and operations of Calpian, Inc. (OTC Pink Sheets:CLPI),
a global payments processor. The purchase includes Calpian subsidiaries, Calpian Commerce Inc. and Calpian Residual Acquisitions
LLP, as well as all of Calpian's U.S. merchant residual portfolios, encompassing approximately 4,000 merchants. These assets
were acquired by Excel's newly created subsidiary, eVance Processing, Inc. ("eVance").
"This transaction marks an important step in Excel's
overall development and adds significant scale and depth to our merchant services capabilities", said T. A. "Kip"
Hyde, Jr., President and CEO of Excel. "By joining the power of our national sales organization at Securus Payments with eVance's
wholesale gateway and direct processing capabilities, our customers can expect even greater value and customer service from their
trusted merchant services partner. We are pleased to welcome Calpian's operations team, their channel partners and valued
customers to the Excel family".
The Company currently expects eVance to generate 2016 revenues
and income from operations of over $13.0 million and $2.0 million respectively. eVance acquired the U.S. operations of Calpian
in return for the assumption of $9.0 million in debt and the issuance of warrants to purchase 6.0 million shares of Excel common
stock. The acquisition did not include any of Calpian's India-based assets, including its Money-on-MobileTM business. eVance
will operate from Calpian Commerce Inc.'s current location in Atlanta, Georgia.
Hyde added, "Over the next year, we expect to generate
increased margins by combining the processing and technology capabilities of eVance's wholesale operations with our retail
sales engine at Securus, while also adding new ISO and other channel partners to the platform. This transaction is transformative
for us as we continue to execute our growth plan for Excel".
More detailed information, including transaction agreements
will be provided in our Report on Form 8-K which is expected to be filed with the SEC on or about December 4, 2015.
