PRESS RELEASE OF PALTALK, INC. DATED JULY 23, 2020
Exhibit 99.1
Paltalk,
Inc. Completes Sale of Secure Communications Assets to SecureCo, Inc.
Sale
Provides for Cash Payment and Revenue Share to Paltalk, and Complementary IP to SecureCo to Accelerate Its Business Strategy
JERICHO,
NY and NEW YORK, NY -
- July 23, 2020 - Paltalk, Inc., formerly
known as PeerStream, Inc. ("Paltalk") (OTCQB: PALT), a leading communications software innovator that powers multimedia
social applications, and SecureCo, Inc. ("SecureCo"), a provider of software applications and a network-as-a-service
platform providing hyper-secure and anonymous data communications, today announced that Paltalk has completed the sale of substantially
all of the assets related to its secure communications business to SecureCo.
The secure
communications business assets include communication software and operational capabilities for secure messaging and data applications
targeting enterprise and government clients. The sale price included current and deferred cash payments that total $250,000 and
provides for a revenue share on future software licensing, capped at a maximum of $500,000.
"We
believe that the sale of the secure communications business is a milestone for the Company as it represents a modest monetization
of our historical investment in a business that we created and enables us to partner in its continued success via our revenue
share arrangement. Importantly, the sale allows us to exclusively focus on our core business, the Paltalk and Camfrog multimedia
social apps, which together are host to one of the world's largest collections of video-based communities. The proceeds
from the sale and potential cash from future revenue share payments will add to our financial strength and will be reinvested
in the consumer apps", said Jason Katz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Paltalk.
Alex Harrington,
SecureCo's CEO, added, "Paltalk has a legacy of great communication software. The acquisition of these complementary
assets strengthens SecureCo's product capabilities and paves the way for success in providing differentiated cybersecurity
solutions for government and enterprise customers".
